The two went downstairs, and Zhu Xiaohua drove Qian Liyi back.

When she went downstairs to Qian Liyi's house, Qian Liyi said: "You don't have to worry too much about getting a camera when you shoot." I'll watch it for you, and I'll let you know as soon as there's any news. ”

A week later, in the morning, at the gate of Los Angeles No. 1 Imaging Factory.

The crowd surrounded the entrance of the studio, and some people pushing bicycles looked inside.

Zhu Xiaohua came to exchange technical issues with Professor Shao about the camera and photographic paper. He parked the Lada car on the side of the road and got out of the car to breathe. At this time, Professor Shao had not yet arrived.

There was a sea of people at the gate of the imaging studio, and when he saw so many people watching, he couldn't help but approach and want to see it.

In front of the crowd, there were several desks under the courtyard wall, and a red banner hung on the courtyard wall that read "Los Angeles No. 2 Photo Paper Investment Conference". Two men and women in dark blue tunics greet the visitors with smiles on their faces.

On the table in front of them, there were four stacks of white photographic paper.

The female staff member took out one from the first stack of photographic paper and another from the second stack of photographic paper, pinching them in her left and right hands. She turned the photo paper around, faced the person who came to her, and introduced: "This is the same photo developed by photo paper No. 1 and photo paper No. 2, you can feel it." ”

The photo shows the view of Los Angeles at sunset.

On the first photographic paper, Los Angeles is hazy at dusk, and the white buildings are composed of large white particles, a bit like frosted glass. In the distance, there are only dark green patches with indistinct layers, and the edges and lines cannot be seen clearly.

On the second photographic paper, the white buildings in the photo are connected, because of the light, the white buildings are like a layer of yellow scarves, it looks hazy, but it is extremely delicate, and it is mixed together.

The green hills in the distance are also connected, looking like a dark cloud, but they are angular and linear.

In contrast, the second photo is more delicate and bright.

The first photo looks a bit like a counterfeit carcass.

The vendors who came to consult looked at the two photos and praised again and again: "The effect of this second photo paper is really good, and it is very different from the first one." ”

Someone else said, "Isn't that the difference between Los Angeles No. 1 and No. 2." I used to think that the Los Angeles No. 1 photo paper was already very good, far exceeding the similar photo paper on the market, but I didn't expect that the No. 2 photo paper still has so much room for improvement. ”

The female staff member went on to say: "The Los Angeles No. 2 photo paper is more stable and has a longer shelf life than the No. 1 photographic paper. ”

She dipped the two photos in the washbasin, and when they were completely wet, she took them out and rubbed them vigorously with a dry towel.

After a few minutes, the No. 1 paper appeared to fade slightly, and the towels on it were stained with paint.

Paper No. 2 is well preserved and still looks shiny.

The female staff also found other brands of photo paper to compare with Los Angeles No. 2 photo paper.

She roasted two pieces of paper under the flame, and soon the other brands of paper turned browned. In the photo, the originally bright blue sky and white buildings instantly turned blue-green, green like wheat seedlings.

The Los Angeles No. 2 paper is slightly yellowed, and the color on the photo remains the same.

The female staff member said: "After being exposed to heat and moisture, the Los Angeles No. 2 photo paper is also more stable and not easy to change color. ”

Seeing this, the others couldn't help but applaud and exclaimed, "This new photo paper is good." ”

Zhu Xiaohua looked at all this, as if he had seen the scene of TV shopping decades later.

In that era of TV shopping, the favorite method used by the host who sold goods was to compare his own products with other products and test them on the spot, and then the advantages and disadvantages of the two products immediately showed their original shape.

However, whether the real gap will be so big is only known to them.

A lot of the time, for the sake of selling goods, for the sake of TV shopping program effect, exaggeration is inevitable.

Zhu Xiaohua knew that in the early 2000s, some TV shopping programs would deliberately find some inferior products to compare with their own products. And in the program, he deliberately optimized and amplified the effect of his products.

Soon, two vendors pushing bicycles crowded into the podium.

Waving the banknote in his hand, he said, "How much is the No. 2 photo paper, I want to buy a hundred." ”

The female staff smiled: "We don't sell these samples, if you want to buy them, register first." A minimum of 100 sheets, each photo paper is two pieces, and half of the deposit is paid first. Pick up the goods in half a month. ”

The vendors smacked their tongues: "The factory price is two pieces a piece, which is much more expensive than the No. 1 photo paper." ”

The male staff next to him explained: "The performance of No. 2 photo paper is better than that of No. 1 photo paper in all aspects, and the cost is naturally a little more expensive." ”

The other vendors nodded, "It's as you should be." ”

They all think that the factory price of such a good photo paper is only two cents more expensive than the No. 1 photo paper, which is really not expensive.

Some vendors also said worriedly: "Although the photo paper is good, I just don't know if it can be sold after it costs two cents." ”

If Zhu Xiaohua hadn't read the patent information of Los Angeles No. 2 photo paper, he would naturally believe that the male staff would have better conditions in all aspects and the cost would naturally be expensive.

But he had seen Qian Liyi's information about the Los Angeles No. 2 photo paper in the car.

He knows that the No. 2 photo paper is better than the No. 1 photo paper in all aspects, but the cost is actually only 75% of the No. 1 photo paper. In other words, No. 2 paper is actually cheaper than No. 1 paper.

However, the people of the First Image Studio are obviously unwilling to miss such a good opportunity to make a fortune, and of course they will not reduce the price so quickly.

Zhu Xiaohua saw that the short, fat, and flat-headed deputy general manager of the First Imaging Factory was also in the crowd. He was rubbing his hands together and chatting with people with a red face.

The deputy general manager said happily: "You can rest assured, the quality of the No. 2 photo paper is absolutely guaranteed." Pay half of the deposit now and book the goods in advance. Otherwise, you may not be able to queue up after half a month. ”

In front of him, some people began to line up to pay the money, and some hesitated.

The deputy general manager was not too difficult, nodded and said: "If you think about it again, it's really hard to find such a good product." If you look at the whole of Los Angeles, and even China, there is only one one. After a while, it is estimated that it will be a long time to queue. ”

The companions of these hesitant traders also advised him: "Don't hesitate, hesitate for a minute now, and then wait in line for four or five hours." ”

The vendors listened to the advice of their companions, and some joined the queue to pay the money, while others turned to the staff and watched with interest as each other experimented with several types of photographic paper.

These people decided to wait and see.
