After the test, Colin slept for almost two full days.

This made Tessa at a loss for a while, thinking that her junior brother was seriously ill.

Although she knew what important experiment the teacher and Colin had been working on the other day, she didn't know what it was.

Fortunately, on the third day, Colin appeared at the restaurant in good spirits and ate half of the roast goose.

……

Youjin Chamber of Commerce.

The shed used for the construction of the gramophone is still preserved and is currently being used for the construction of the gramophone.

In addition to the one for the Principality of Gilman, the Youjin Chamber of Commerce has a total of twelve photographers, two of which are placed in the headquarters for the production of Dinah's "star photos", one mobile for door-to-door service, and the other nine are distributed in the nine stores of the Chamber of Commerce.

Colin looked at the jet-black and bronze machine in front of him, and finally had a sense of familiarity.

Unlike the gramophone, the appearance of the gramophone is very close to that of the previous life.

A large rectangular wooden box with a large brass horn held high.

It's just that the overall size is larger.

After Wald's demonstration on the spot a few times, Colin nodded in satisfaction.

After several days, he, the "boss" and main designer, finally came to accept the final results.

The effect of the gramophone is better than expected, and the expected noise is not obvious, although it cannot be compared with the high-end sound of the previous life, but it can barely be compared with ordinary tape recorders.

"What do you think, Mr. Vane?"

Because of the nail that happened last time, when Colin really came this time, everyone didn't dare to show too much excitement, for fear that something was not good enough.

"Very good." Colin looked at everyone: "Thank you for your hard work. ”

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

"But ......"

The crowd became nervous again.

Colin smiled, "In terms of design, this is already a complete piece, but it seems that we need to add something if we want to use it commercially." ”

Wald asked seriously, "Mr. Wayne, where do you think it needs to be changed?" ”

"It's not a modification."

"My idea was to build another machine that could only be used for broadcasting, and to make the sound stone that stores sound detachable and movable," Colin said. ”

If there were people who were there, they would have understood that Colin was talking about "loudspeakers" and "tapes".

He did not plan to sell the phonograph directly, but he could popularize the "speaker" as a household appliance, and when he needed to listen to other audio works, he could replace the "tape".

He doesn't know if Thunder City has any guys who are good at singing, maybe he can consider making a few more singers popular like Dinah......

The crowd was silent for a long time.

Wald was the first to react and said, "What do you mean is that we can only sell the sound machine in the future, and then sell the sound stone to the outside world on a regular basis?" ”

"That's right." Colin nodded.

Finia bowed slightly: "Take the phonophone part into your own hands, and only sell sound stones to the outside world, which can indeed make the business last longer." ”

Wald said: "Now the sound stone is made of aquamarine, and the shape is oblate, maybe we can call it 'sound disc'. ”

"Good idea." In this respect, Colin fully believes in the "native" aesthetic.

Finia smiled: "The broadcasting machine can be compared to the camera machine and named 'Sound Machine', how about it?" ”

"It's simpler, it's more memorable." Eleanor agreed.

"In that case."

Colin looked at the man standing next to the gramophone and smiled, "Mr. Wald, I believe you should be able to design and build these two things." ”

"After listening to your description, I'm willing to give it a try." Wald replied.

"Okay, but I have a deadline, three days before His Majesty's birthday, I need to see the finished product, is there a problem?" Colin asked.

Wald counted the time and nodded, "I won't let you down." ”

"Okay, then continue to work hard for everyone."

Colin smiled at everyone: "When this matter is over, I will send you extra New Year's bonuses...... Well...... Rewards, New Year's rewards. ”

He originally wanted to say that Lady Finia would not treat you badly, but then he thought that he couldn't always let the Chamber of Commerce pay for it, and he didn't pull out a dime.

So far, whether it is Eleanor and the other nine, or Wald, he is very satisfied.

As the teacher said, Tulum's backwardness in elemental research cannot be reversed by one person, in this case, it is imperative to find and discover talents. And in order to retain talents, it is natural to show sincerity - I don't know if there is a year-end bonus in this world......

……

Everyone looked at Colin's back as he left in a hurry, and was speechless for a long time.

Angelo was a little puzzled: "Mr. Vane seems to be very busy lately, he hasn't been to the Chamber of Commerce a few days ago, he finally came once, and he left quickly." ”

"The last time I went to the association, I left without saying a few words, and I couldn't even keep him with the news of the construction of the gramophone."

"Maybe in Mr. Vain's opinion, the gramophone is nothing."

"But then again, Mr. Vane seems to be in a constant hurry." Eleanor said.

"If you meet him in the library, I'm afraid you'll understand." Walder sighed, "Mr. Vane could stand in front of the bookshelf all day without doing anything other than flipping the books. ”

"It's amazing."

"Genius and hard work, that's why we can have our current achievements."

"If only I could be so attentive."

"Me too, I fall asleep every time I read a book."

"I can fall asleep even meditating......"

“……”

……

The success of the space magic experiment gave Colin a lot of confidence, and he devoted almost all of his time to it.

Until one day, the senior sister brought a new dress for him to try on, and then told him that tomorrow was His Majesty's birthday.

"So fast?"

Colin suddenly remembered that he had not yet gone to the Chamber of Commerce to accept the last work of the gramophone, and because he had not been out of the Mage Tower for several days, Wald and the others could not contact him at all.

"Are you ready for your gift?" Tessa asked.

"Almost." Colin smiled awkwardly: "Senior sister, I'll go out and I'll be back soon." ”

……

"Mr. Wald, your rigor and efficiency are truly reassuring."

Colin looked at the "sound machine" that almost exactly matched his imagination and secretly rejoiced.

Because the process is much simpler, the shape of the phonograph is much smaller than that of the phonograph, and one person can easily hold it up, and the speaker configured on it is not as exaggerated and bulky as the phonograph.

"Mr. Wayne, since you said last time that you were going to give the first speaker to a distinguished guest, I have taken special care of it."

"Oh?" Colin wondered, "Is there anything special about it?" ”

Wald was a little disappointed to see that Colin couldn't see his efforts, but then quickly explained:

"I redesigned the shape of the machine to make it look more delicate and elegant, and invited Master Leopold, a famous painter in Thunder City, to design a pattern and engrave it on it, do you think it looks much better than the sketch you gave before?"

Colin observed carefully for a long time, and didn't think it looked good at all, and then smiled awkwardly: "It's really much better." ”
