Chapter 41: The Rain Keeps Falling

7 kilometers away from the city center, Hexi Binjiang Road Yunhe Century is not as prosperous as the city center, but because of its good geographical location, three rivers form a peninsula-like area, making it a high-end residential area.

A brief description of the structure of the Yunhe century.

To the north is the Huancheng River, a tributary of the Yun River, to the south is the starting point of the Yang River, which leads to the neighboring city of Yanghe City, and to the east is the wide and vast Yun River. Surrounded by water on three sides, Feng Shui is excellent.

Three rivers split the Yunhe century, and the tail end was cut off by the second ring, giving it an L-shaped peninsula with a total area of about 3 square kilometers. In the southern part of the peninsula, at the confluence of the Yang River and the Yun River, is one of the most famous five-star hotels in Yuncheng, the Yunhe Century Hotel.

2 o'clock in the morning.

The twelfth floor of Yunhe Century Hotel, Taohuayuan KTV.

Guan Zhijun, a big businessman who started his business as a liquefied gas station, invited a few friends who were also worth a lot of money to have fun in the big box No. 1217.

They ordered a lot of expensive liquor and let those KTV princesses strip naked and swap for all kinds of sex games.

Inside is like a group of demons dancing wildly, and there are obscene sounds everywhere, which is unbearable.

After getting tired of playing, Guan Zhijun and his old friend Deng Yong leaned naked on the sofa next to them, looking at several other friends who were full of ugliness and were still exchanging women to have fun.

Deng Yong looked at this disgusting scene and said, Brother Jun, come out so late, sister-in-law has no opinion?

Guan Zhijun's princess is only 14.5 years old, with double ponytails, over-the-knee socks, and a small Lori skirt, which looks very cute. His right hand groped underneath her, and his left hand reached into his underwear and squeezed hard. Little Lori showed a painful expression, not daring to resist.

Guan Zhijun liked Xiao Lori's expression very much, and when he heard Deng Yong's words, he said disdainfully, that yellow-faced woman will soon be unable to control me, and in a few months, after the court verdict, I will divorce her and let her get out early.

Deng Yong said, then don't you give her half of your property?

Guan Zhijun said proudly, Lao Tzu didn't give her a dime of fart property. After a while, when the court comes to inspect the property, it will find that I have no property in my name, but she still has the house in her name, and this house has to be half for one person.

Deng Yong said, what about your son? If the court awards her son, you won't even have any offspring.

Guan Zhijun said, I don't want to give it to me, the more my son grows up, the more he doesn't look like me, the devil knows where it came from, I'm so rich, worth tens of millions, I'm afraid that no woman will give me a son?

Soon, Guan Zhijun and no one could have children.

At 3:20 in the morning, Guan Zhijun hugged the Lori and left KVT drunk.

A few other friends who drank and meat took advantage of it and left early. Only Deng Yong was a little worried about him and asked him if he would like to go to his house to sleep.

Guan Zhijun didn't want to go, so he bought a house for a female high school student in a nearby upscale community. During the recent summer vacation, the female high school student and her family stayed in that house to serve Guan Zhijun under the pretext of going out on a trip with her classmates.

He just wants to go back to his high-end community as soon as possible, and get up tomorrow morning to play a more exciting double fly.

Seeing that Guan Zhijun's consciousness was still quite sober, Deng Yong no longer insisted. Because it is less than a kilometer away from Guan Zhijun's house, it can be reached in a few minutes by car along the main road by the river to the north, and there will be no problems. So after watching him get into the car and start the car to leave, Deng Yong walked to his car and prepared to get in the car.

It's just that when he got into the car, he glanced back at the direction where Guan Zhijun's car left, and saw the black Mercedes-Benz sedan, swaying back and forth in the dark night, staggering on the road like drunk.

It seems that the influence of alcohol is still very large.

Deng Yong thought to himself.

Then he drove away.

At more than 3 o'clock in the morning, the direction that Guan Zhijun walked was very remote, it was in the direction of the northern Huancheng River, which was close to the suburbs of the city, and now there would definitely be no cars coming over at this point, and he was not driving fast, and he could get to the door in a few minutes, so there should be no big problems.

But Deng Yong didn't know that less than 1 minute after he left, Guan Zhijun's car crashed into a flower bed on the side of the road.

A lame man, coming out of a nearby woods.

Wearing a mask and white cloth gloves on his hands, he opened the driver's door.

Guan Zhijun lay in the driver's seat, unconscious. The Lori girl in the passenger seat buried her head under his crotch and still had something in her mouth. Now motionless and unconscious.

The lame man turned Lori's head over and looked at her face, muttering, "It's true."

Then he took out the rope he had prepared in advance and put it around Guan Zhijun's neck, one end of the rope was fixed through a guard on the driver's seat, and the other end was held in the hand of the lame man.

Then he strangled himself hard.

While strangled, he also muttered, silly girl, grandpa avenged you.

He pulled the rope so hard and hard that his hands almost slipped out of the white cloth gloves. Guan Zhijun's neck was strangely twisted, and his neck seemed to be strangled.

The sky was cloudy and raining.

Early the next morning.

Someone saw a car hit less than 500 meters on the side of the road in the Yunhe Century City community.

The first witness was curious and walked over to take a look.

Then, there was a scream.

......

......

Lin Ming received a call from Liang Xiaoyue the next day.

All the technical and production problems of MP3 have been solved, and it is officially put into production today. Hou Wenhui has already left for Yuecheng to hold a meeting on behalf of Taomu, the major shareholder, on product launch and market positioning.

According to Lin Ming's words, it is to go over there and use the power of the major shareholder, emphasizing cost reduction and mass production, so that the price of MP3 in the market will fall all the way.

So that they can make a lot of money.

Although there is vicious competition in this way, there is a suspicion of provoking a price war. But the price of the item itself is determined by the cost and market demand, and now the price of MP3 is inflated, and the cost of less than a few dozen yuan is sold for more than 1,000 yuan. In addition, the demand in the market is not high, so there is no such thing as competition or non-competition.

It can even be said that the MP3 manufacturer invested by Taomu is the first batch of MP3 manufacturers in China. Those MP3s imported from foreign countries, last year's sales were only 500,000, not even a fraction of 2005, where can it be regarded as the domestic MP3 technology pilot?

Therefore, several shareholders of Taomu, after listening to the production cost of MP3 and Lin Ming's future market plan, immediately realized that this was a big opportunity to make money.

Now they will immediately mass-produce and bring down the price first, at least more than half, and their company's products will be able to occupy all the low-end markets. Small profits but quick sales are the king. What's more, half of the price is lowered, which is considered a high price, with a cost of dozens of yuan, selling for five or six hundred yuan a piece, which is simply a profiteering industry.

Even if the funds are insufficient, Taomu will continue to increase investment, and manufacturers will have to continue to work overtime to expand factories and make a lot of money before the arrival of this market.

In addition, the creation of the album in August is almost time to go.

The creation of stars such as Zhang Ziqi, New Era, Wenhu and Zhao Yue, Youth Boys, etc., is nearing completion. Because they became popular, especially Zhang Ziqi and the new era, they became the new popular front-line, and they became very popular in China, their songs were everywhere on the streets, and they have also become common faces on TV stations.

Next, as far as the other small artists in the company, these third- and fourth-tier little stars, one has no fan base, and the other has no outstanding works, if you want them to become an instant hit, it will take at least two or three albums. So you have to give them a certain foundation in order to slowly make them popular.

In fact, the most important thing is that the company's resources cannot be tilted towards them, and focus on cultivating Zhang Ziqi and them to become the company's cash cow. Therefore, there will not be many resources for these small artists, such as an album per person and a high-quality song.

Some people may think that this seems to suppress some talented artists and make them unable to get ahead. But there are more talented artists in the world, but there are only so many who are famous.

Life is inherently cruel, and the songs in the music library are not given endlessly, so they naturally won't get too much benefit.

After discussing the specific plan with Liang Xiaoyue, Lin Ming hung up the phone and prepared to go to cram school.

When he came to the classroom, Li Sisi had already sat down there.

Recently, Li Sisi has been weird, looking at him with a crimson face from time to time, and often asking which page of the book he saw.

Lin Mingcai sat down, and Li Sisi asked, "Which page did you see?" ”

Lin Ming remembered that he bought a brand new Old Man and the Sea, a limited hardcover edition, but there have been too many things recently, and he has not been idle to read, these days under Li Sisi's reminder, he has just read the beginning, more than 30 pages.

Lin Ming said: "38 pages. ”

Li Sisi said a little disappointed: "Oh, then look at it quickly." ”

"What, you want? I'll give it to you tomorrow. ”

"No, no, no."

Li Sisi hurriedly shook his head and said, "Look, I'm just asking." ”

"Oh."

Lin Ming thought to himself, could it be that Li Sisi put something in the book? Eager to see yourself?

A token of love? A gift for me? Or a love letter?

If that's the case, it's a bit bad. I might have doubled the book first, but now that the book is in Su Wenqi's hands, I hope she will read it slowly, she hasn't seen it yet.

Next time, I'll have to find a way to get the book back from her.

Lin Ming thought so, and the class bell rang. Chen Zeying, a math teacher, walked into the classroom with the textbook and said to everyone: "Students, today we will talk about compound functions, turn to page 112 of the tutorial book......"

This summer, the sun is shining brightly and drowsy. Sometimes lightning and thunder roared, and torrential rain poured down.

There was a heavy rain in the morning, and it hasn't stopped yet.

It's dripping outside the window.

Because there are no trees on the commercial streets in the city center, but there are many sheds that provide shelter from the rain. The rain crackled on the canopy.

There are few pedestrians on the pedestrian street downstairs, and there is a peculiar phenomenon in Cloud City, the pedestrian street is off-season in the morning and noon, and there are very few people. At the beginning of the afternoon, it seemed that all the people in the city had run over, and soon the entire street at the east gate would be crowded, until two or three o'clock in the morning, when the West Middle Road was still brightly lit.

This is not far from Zhaojiatang.

Lin Ming thought to himself.
