In the private room on the second floor of the People's Hotel in Shangdong County, the members of the "Video Hall Interest Alliance" gathered again.

Speaking of this party, it is not easy, glasses Jiang Weixing and Baozi Bao Yunchun are still down, glasses go to school in the mall, it is easy to take a day off, Baozi is mixed in Huatian Food, and it is even more on-call, the key is that Sun Yulong has been a soldier for more than a year, this is the first time to come back to visit relatives, and his father has also been transferred to the capital, it is really rare to come to Shangdong County.

It's easy to meet again, this wine is naturally to have a good drink, Hou Xiaoyong and Jia Ming coaxed with bottles, but Sun Ershao was not afraid, it seems that the army does exercise people, at least this amount of wine is very good.

But halfway through the wine, Wu Tian called a pause, and there was still business to discuss.

"Biaozi, the recent business of the video hall is okay, right?" Wu Tian turned his mouth and asked.

"Okay, there are two more video halls in the county, but their videotapes are too few, just that old film is put around, our tapes are all up-to-date, there are many tricks, and there are too many people to sit down every day, some people would rather stand and watch, than squeeze in, hehe." The dog's face was already a little numb from drinking, and he shouted with a big grin.

"Well, guys, I think so, our video hall is still a little smaller, I'm going to open a bigger one in the city, how do you feel?" Wu Tian said.

"I don't have an opinion, anyway, if you send money, I'll take the flowers, haha." Hou Xiaoyong said with a smile.

Wu Tian rolled his eyes at him and looked at Sun Yulong again.

"Speaking of which, I was asked to take care of this video hall, but I didn't help at all. Last time. It's all settled by Xiaotian. I also reinvested money to rebuild, and I'm embarrassed to take this dry stock again. Sun Yulong said, "When I come back this time, I want to say that the video hall will not be counted as my share in the future......"

Wu Tian nodded secretly in his heart, after being a soldier for a year, Sun Yulong was a little less rough and calm.

"When I started this video hall, I didn't expect to make much money. It's just to get some money for cigarettes and alcohol for the brothers, and if you want to quit now, you won't treat us as brothers? Wu Tian said.

"Xiaotian, you know I didn't mean that." Sun Yulong said with a red face.

"That's not what it means, I'll just treat you as if you have no opinion, hehe." Wu Tiandao, "Of course, if a big video hall is opened in the city, I hope that the money I make now is not enough, and I have to invest another amount of money." What I mean is to take out all the money that hasn't been divided in the past two months...... How many? ”

Dogface Biao hurriedly took out a small notebook from his arms. flipped through and said: "As of yesterday, there are seven thousand six hundred and fifty-nine yuan in the account......"

Wu Tian smiled, after the last accident, the dog-faced Biao also seemed to have matured overnight, and his work became stable, according to Wu Tian's instructions, the accounts were very finely managed, and the income of the day would be counted every day, recorded in the small book, and dividends would be distributed every two months, always calculated clearly, not ambiguous at all, but Wu Tian was very high-minded.

"Well, it's estimated that there is still a gap of eighty or ninety thousand." Wu Tian said.

"Uh, doesn't that mean it's going to be almost 100,000?" Dog-faced Biao exclaimed, "Brother Tian, how big of a video hall are you going to build?" ”

"I'm going to build a place where at least four or five hundred people can sit." Wu Tian smiled, "It's like a movie theater." The projection is also the same as the cinema, using a projector to make a big screen, absolutely magnificent! ”

"Uh......" The dog's face was full of surprise and excitement, sitting in the field of four or five hundred people, there will be an income of a small thousand yuan a day, twenty or thirty thousand yuan a month, and three months to return to the capital, and then according to their own current half of the dividend, you can get more than 1,000 yuan a month, compared to the current monthly dividend of more than 100 yuan, plus the additional salary subsidy set by Wu Tian 100 yuan, but it has multiplied several times, and it will become a 10,000 yuan household in a year......

However, if such a large video hall is opened in the city, Wu Tian will invest so much money, will he still give us half of the dividends for nothing?

"Of course, the city has to invest so much more money, and I can't pay it for nothing by myself," Wu Tian said with a smile, "So, this new video hall in the city, in addition to the profits of these two months, I will pay the rest of the money, I personally account for sixty percent, everyone here is half percent, and the remaining one percent is left for the two friends of the city bureau, what do you think?" ”

"Hehe, you have the final say, and you won't let us pay for it anyway." Baozi smiled.

"Dadong, this kid doesn't have to cry poor in the future, next time I see him, let him have a drink!" Hou Xiaoyong said with a smile.

"It's all up to you, but I don't have to give me my share of the dividend, when will I deduct the 100,000 yuan I owed you at the beginning." Sun Yulong also smiled.

Wu Tian smiled, didn't respond, just clapped and said, "That's okay, that's it!" Baozi, you go to help Biaozi watch the scene tomorrow, Biaozi, you follow Jia Ming to the city, first find a good venue, preferably the kind of auditorium or something, there are ready-made stools, if you can't do it, you can find a big warehouse, to ensure that according to the layout of the movie theater, you can sit three or four hundred, four or five hundred people, I will arrange for someone to get a projector back from Hong Kong Island, and we can open before New Year's Day, hehe. ”

*********************************************************************************************************************************************************************

In the 80s, the projector was really expensive, and the old-fashioned three-gun projector, even if it was at the entry level, was often hundreds of thousands, but this price was quoted by the trading company in the Special Economic Zone.

It is said that in the 80s, as a trade agent, casually played and died, this is really not true at all, in this year, whether it is imported household appliances, or reversible cars, and computers that have just entered the country, they are all huge profits, and even some things they dare to double or even several times the price. A small trading company of small size. As long as you can get a few approvals. It is not difficult to get rich overnight, and it is not difficult to earn millions of dollars a year, and many wealthy people in later generations have been engaged in foreign trade business during this period and have accumulated the first pot of gold.

Although Wu Tian is greedy, but he can't reach out, first of all, a regional problem can't be solved, Shannan is inland, this kind of business can't be done. And the most important point is that he is still his backer - Dad's level is not enough to give us an import approval.

In the end, Wu Tian still got it directly from Hong Kong Island in the name of Fengyun Company's internal office use, and he was exempted from tariffs, and he also exempted the guys who were doing import and export trade in the Special Economic Zone from taking a bite of meat, and it only cost more than 70,000 yuan to get it.

However, the 70,000 yuan is worth the money, you must know that in the history of projectors, the performance of the CRT three-gun projector is quite outstanding, much stronger than the LCD of later generations, even if it is an entry-level product. Its color chart is also comparable to the mid-to-high-end models of LCD and DLP, and the cost of use is much lower. The power consumption is low, and there is no need to spend a high price to change the bulb, which is very suitable for use in the video hall.

Even if you don't mention these, just say that the weight of dozens of kilograms makes people feel worth the price!

However, when it comes to CRT three-gun projectors in later generations, this weight problem has always been one of the main reasons for being criticized, but it is actually difficult to debug.

The debugging of the three-gun projector is more troublesome, the dog's face is white-necked, and finally Wu Tian, who is familiar with electronic products, went out in person, and it took a morning and half an afternoon to finally debug it, and cast a large screen of one hundred and fifty inches, although it is still a little smaller than four hundred seats, but if it is a little bigger, it will affect the clarity of the strictness.

Even so, for the video hall, it is definitely a super top luxury, completely throwing off the few existing video halls in the commercial city for dozens of streets, and this advantage can at least be maintained until the end of the video hall era, and it will still not be outdated.

"Energetic!" Dogface looked at the picture on the curtain and swung his fist excitedly.

"Don't just talk about it, this field is much more advanced than the one in the county, you can't manage it well." Wu Tian said, "You can't be busy alone, go back and go to Jia Ming, let him teach you how to manage, recruit a few waiters, and make it more formal, do you know?" ”

"Okay, don't worry, I don't miss anything." Dogface Biao said.

"It's okay if there is a leak, if there is something, look for Xiao Dadong, as long as it doesn't cause a fatality, it's not a problem." Wu Tian said, "Dadong will explain to the nearby ruffians when he turns around, and they won't look for trouble, so don't mix so much with them here, we are doing serious business, do you understand?" ”

"Okay, good ......" Dogface nodded repeatedly.

"Okay, it's almost packed, just open on New Year's Day." Wu Tian slapped his face and said.

"Brother Tian, is the ticket here still a piece?" Dogface Biao asked again.

"Well, what do you see?" Wu Tian asked rhetorically, intending to take a test of dog-faced biao.

"If you want me to say, I should mention one point, our screen is not worse than the movie theater, and the film is not available in the movie theater, you can watch it for a long time when you come in, three or four movies, at least you have to charge a piece of five or two, right?" Dogface Biao said.

At present, the ticket price of movie theaters, seven or eight cents a ticket for color widescreen films, five or six cents for standard screens, and three or four cents for old black and white films, and the current movies are generally one hour to one and a half hours, and there are few blockbusters of more than two hours in later generations.

Wu Tian nodded with a smile and said, "One day is over, one game is seven hours, one morning and one night game, and five yuan in the afternoon, just this standard, hehe." ”

"All night?" The dog's face was stunned for a moment, and he said.

"Of course, why would you hire a few more workers? Do it formally, three shifts! Wu Tian said, but when he turned his head to look at this big field, he couldn't help but blush a little.

After the screening of Jia Ming and Dogface Biao, as well as Xiao Dadong's recommendation, this venue located in the center of the mall was finally selected. Originally, this was the auditorium of a factory, and the efficiency of the field was not good, and now it is no longer held every day, after Xiao Dadong's lobbying, a wall was pulled next to the auditorium to separate the auditorium from the factory. Another door was opened on the road. There is also an open space outside that can be used as a parking lot – a bicycle parking lot.

The auditorium isn't too big. Originally, there were less than 300 seats, but in order to maximize profits, the seat pitch was finally adjusted and the main seat was removed. The table added seats, and in the end, more than 400 seats came out, which looked a little crowded - can this also be called regular?

However, in this way, if the attendance rate is okay, the income will reach about 1,000 to 1,500 yuan a day. An investment of at least 30,000 or 40,000 yuan a month, and a return on capital in two or three months, is definitely a huge profit!

Although Wu Tian doesn't look at this money very much, Wu Tian attaches great importance to it, it doesn't matter if the money is not money, the key is to cultivate a few people who can be used in the future......

*********************************************************************************************************************************************************************

On the New Year's Day of '86, the New Vision Video Hall of Shangcheng City was officially opened, and the gong encouraged the lion to celebrate, which was very lively.

However, Wu Tian did not go to the scene. Wu Tian was delayed by another piece of good news.

After several months of investigation, the last time Wu Jianguo was framed. Finally, there is a bit of an eyebrow, although the case has not yet come out with a final conclusion, but the personnel adjustment has begun, first of all, the governor of Shannan Province was transferred to the capital, and a relatively deserted ministry was arranged to be a deputy minister at the ministerial level.

This result was basically within Wu Tian's expectations, it was impossible for the top to cut a provincial governor with a big knife for a small county party secretary, and besides, that person was also seeking a good position for the son and nephew of a certain leader, how could he not cover him over there? In the end, it is quite good to get such an idle result.

After the last leader of the Shannan department was transferred, the only remaining member of the Shannan department was Yang Baoxin, although seriously speaking, Yang Baoxin and that were not really a family, representing the two camps of Shannan respectively, but that group of dragons had no leader, and there were still many people who chose to lean on Yang Baoxin's side, and Director Yang's voice in the province increased sharply.

Liu Wencheng, who also tried to protect Wu Jianguo and defeated the other party, also reaped a bumper harvest afterwards. After the provincial governor was "promoted", a deputy secretary of the province replaced the provincial governor, and the person who took over as the deputy secretary was the executive vice governor, while Liu Wencheng was officially appointed by the provincial party committee and the provincial people's congress on the day before New Year's Day, and he was appointed vice governor of Shannan Province in charge of executive work.

Liu Wencheng was overjoyed to be promoted, Wu Jianguo naturally wanted to congratulate the old leader, and in front of his cronies, Liu Wencheng did not shy away from talking about the next step in the personnel layout of the province and city - if nothing else, Liu Wencheng will definitely step down from the post of secretary of the mall municipal party committee in the near future, as for the concurrently serving position of deputy secretary of the provincial party committee, whether it can be retained, is not yet final.

The position of secretary of the mall municipal party committee was basically set to be taken over by Yuan Chenyang. Yuan Chenyang has been looking forward to being able to stay in the mayor's position for another term in next year's election, and it would be good to go further, just thinking about it, who knew that unexpected good things would fall on his head, and he would take a step ahead of him without any effort? Of course, Yuan Chenyang also knew that if he could go further this time, the old secretary did not contribute less, and Liu Wencheng also recommended him, and he naturally understood that the next step was to continue to cooperate with the Liu Department and take care of Liu Wencheng's team in the city.

As for the candidates for the mayor and the secretary of the Commission for Discipline Inspection, it was arranged by Secretary He, who had long wanted to meddle in the mall and couldn't do it - Secretary He also advocated strict investigation to the end in this incident, and it was not too much to take the position of a mayor and a secretary of the Commission for Discipline Inspection. Of course, since then, Yuan Chenyang's life in the city in the future is only afraid that it will not be easy, and it will definitely not be as comfortable as Liu Yuan's cooperation.

This is a trouble for Yuan Chenyang, and it is not a good thing for Wu Jianguo, everyone knows that Secretary He is on the side of the conservatives, and he almost stabbed Liu Wencheng the year before last, so that his people have the power to control the economic construction of the mall, and the life of Shangdong County, the pioneer of reform, will not be easy, and there is a danger of becoming a "martyr".

In addition, after the "promotion", the two cronies he stayed in the province will not have a good time in the future, especially the propaganda minister who instructed the provincial newspaper to send Wu Jianguo's newsletter in advance, and it is estimated that he will have to move his seat soon-if Secretary He doesn't know that he will take this opportunity to replace himself, then he is not worthy of sitting in that seat.

Wu Tian heard the news and sighed secretly, the wheel of history basically did not deviate much, although Liu Wencheng entered the province a year earlier than the previous life, but the personnel pattern in the province is basically not much different from the previous life, and the "backer" of the father in the previous life is finally going to take over the post of head of the Propaganda Department without accident......

Fortunately, in this life, Dad's path is different from the previous life, standing on the side of Liu Wencheng, who will win in the end, as long as Liu Wencheng can gain a firm foothold in the province, he doesn't have to worry too much.

The key is how to make Liu Wencheng gain a firm foothold in the province......
