Chapter 74 The Billionaire's Part-Time Job

It was after ten o'clock in the morning the next day that Xia Donghai and his wife returned to the company.

Seeing Fan Wubing coming out of his daughter's room, the expressions on the couple's faces were a bit exciting.

"Cough, I drank too much. Elder sister Xiaoxue took care of me." Seeing this, Fan Wubing hurriedly cleared things up to avoid any further misunderstandings.

"Aren't you good at drinking? Why do you get drunk one day?" Xia Donghai didn't quite believe Fan Wubing's words.

Naturally, Xia Xue couldn't let her parents think about it randomly, so she explained, "In order to shoot the mV, he specially drank a bottle and a half of old Baifen, and he drank it on an empty stomach, so you can imagine the consequences."

Oh, Xia Donghai nodded, and then he felt relieved, a bottle and a half of old Baifen can make a cow drunk to death, as long as he has a stomach, even if he wants to, he will be powerless, so he is not afraid of what this kid will mess up.

"What mV to shoot?" Feng Xiaonan asked curiously.

Xia Xue talked about the two of them filming Fan Wubing's new song together, and finally said, "I guess it should be done today, right? Teacher Liu is impatient, I think he won't sleep until he finishes it."

The sound engineer's surname is Liu, and everyone calls him Teacher Liu. As for the full name, few people remember it, and the accountant probably knows it.

While talking, Teacher Liu ran over, saw everyone was there, and said with a smile, "Lao Xia, Xiao Nan, hehe, Xiaoxue and Mr. Fan are also here! The disc of the new song is out, let's see the effect together ?” That’s a must-see. "Xia Donghai put the Ld disc in Teacher Liu's hand into the player. Then he waited for the screen to appear.

Teacher Liu's post-processing is very successful, and the whole picture is very beautiful. In addition, Fan Wubing and Xia Xue's performances are relatively innocent, and Fan Wubing's grasp of the song is naturally relatively in place, so basically there is nothing wrong with the overall effect.

When everyone is enjoying the music and pictures. But Fan Wubing focused on the Ld disc brought by Mr. Liu, and couldn't let it go for a long time.

Translated into Chinese, Ld is Laser Disc, Laser Video Disc, which is a very popular double-sided video disc for TV, movies and karaoke from the early 1980s to the mid-1990s. I believe that many friends who were keen on singing karaoke at that time I have had some impressions of this kind of thing.

The Ld format product was first launched in 1978. It was originally named in 1980. Japan’s Pioneer Company acquired most of the copyrights of the format, officially named it, and launched the first Ld player Vp-1000 in the US market. Since then, Pioneer has been the most important supporter of the Ld format.

In fact, if I hadn't seen the Ld disc brought by Mr. Liu today,

Fan Wubing basically didn't have much impression of this thing. Although he knew some about the performance and price of Ld when he was engaged in the localization of karaoke, but after so many years, he has no memory of this aspect.

Ld's disc is thirty centimeters in diameter. In the early days, Linley used analog to record video and audio, and later used analog video and digital audio. Due to the large space of the disc, there is no compression technology, so the picture is very realistic. The storage method of Ld adopts double-sided storage method, and also has the technology of double-sided playback. It is the only DVD media in the world that can be played on both sides.

However, Ld appeared early and lagged behind early. At the beginning, Pioneer Company claimed that the main target of their service was families, but because of the high price, cumbersome and inconvenient reasons, it was finally replaced by the later bsp; in the past, Fan Wubing only saw Ld's albums when he was singing karaoke Films, the price of that kind of thing is often more than 100 yuan. How much was the monthly income of ordinary people at that time? This stuff didn't catch on in Chinese households. It is also inevitable that the consumption is too high.

Although expensive. However, the image quality that Ld can provide is close to that of broadcast TV, and because it is non-contact, it does not have the problem of videotape that will deteriorate the image if it is played too much.

Laser discs are not popular in North America and mainland China, but they are very popular in Japan and Hong Kong. They are mainly used for the production of karaoke discs, followed by general movie discs.

Due to the use of analog storage, laser discs do not have the mosaic of dVd or other problems caused by signal digitization, and the effect is quite good, so there are still a few hobbies who regard them as treasures until later.

Also because of these special technical factors, Ld is not pirated, which is the biggest reason why L is not popular in mainland China.

"This stuff is pretty good, but it's a pity that the possibility of localization is too small." Fan Wubing thought of the d and dvd discs that cost two yuan a piece that were overwhelmingly pirated, so he knew that this kind of stuff could only be used as Collectibles come to appreciate.

It is estimated that domestic DVD players should come out, right? The technical threshold of this thing is very low, but I don’t mind doing it casually. Anyway, I am integrating low-voltage electrical resources, and I have to recruit talents from all walks of life. I am not afraid of merging a few more electronics factories. As for the source of the disc , Let the pirates go to work.

Fan Wubing was thinking about D, but Xia Donghai grabbed his shoulder and shook him.

"Huh? What's the matter?" Fan Wubing, who was shaken awake, looked at Xia Donghai in surprise and asked.

Xia Donghai said resentfully, "You won't wake up without shaking! Boss, how about discussing something with you?"

"What's the matter?" Fan Wubing raised his head and asked, then frowned and said, "Please don't shake it, okay? My head can't stand it, and now I see people as double images."

"Uh, it's easy to shake." Xia Donghai took his hand back awkwardly, and then said to Fan Wubing, "We went to a friend's place the day before yesterday. He is now the director of CCTV and is in charge of a column. He probably does some charity work. Interviews for events or something. They are going to hold a charity performance with Shanghai TV station in Shanghai recently. I just heard your song, and I suddenly had an impromptu idea. Can you sing it too? Call our company Dozens of famous people?"

Charity show? Fan Wubing said in his heart that there are actually people engaging in such activities now?

You know this is 1991! Although there are some invisible rich people, but in this kind of competition between public ownership and private ownership, no one has yet been determined. Now that everyone is still arguing about public and private matters, will it be faster to hold this kind of event?

At least everyone has the same mind, people are afraid of being famous and pigs are afraid of being strong!

Charity performances, which seem to be completely a product of the bourgeois era, can be held in a grand manner? Fan Wubing felt that this matter was a bit interesting.

"It is said that it was organized in the name of the United Front Work Department, so some rich people from Hong Kong and Taiwan have come, and there are also some local rich people, heavyweight officials, etc. The singers and artists who can participate are all the current Qu A big name with one finger." Feng Xiaonan explained to Fan Wubing beside him.

Fan Wubing listened. I felt that such an activity was meaningless. Activities such as charity performances are nothing more than begging for some money from others, and holding a party to reward them. Those singers who are half-red but not purple, especially those female stars who are somewhat beautiful. Instead, he just took advantage of this opportunity to hang a hook. If he could catch a golden turtle, that would be the best, and at worst he would have to make a familiar face in front of dignitaries.

"Participating in such an event is meaningless to me." Fan Wubing said with a frown.

It's not that Fan Wubing is talking big. Now that his status and value, he is a world-class rich man. Although he is relatively low-key, everyone still knows that there is such a number one person among the world's top rich men. Arrived at home. Watch these unassuming characters put on airs here. It's not disgusting enough to handle the posture. Where would he be in the mood to sing at this kind of party? Isn't that self-deprecating!

"It's all for the company——" Seeing that Fan Wubing didn't seem to be interested in it, Xia Donghai tried his best to encourage him, "Although we all know that you are rich, boss, you can sacrifice a little for the sake of the company's development." of."

"It doesn't seem like I should do this, does it?" Fan Wubing immediately refused, "You two are company executives, how to develop the company and how to make money are all things you should consider. But I have credited you a lot of points, and the rest of the things, you can't let me, the boss, do it yourself, right?"

"Isn't this a matter of urgency--" Xia Donghai said to Fan Wubing with a stern face, "This satellite has not yet been launched into the sky, and the resources are still empty words. We don't have much appeal now! Let the boss be so high-quality It’s a waste of resources to not use resources! Anyway, it’s only one night, you just fool around and get over it, right? I heard that Shanghai TV’s ratings are very high, maybe you will become a star in no time!”

"Why should I be a star?" Fan Wubing smiled wryly upon hearing the words, "Being low-key, you know? If I am remembered, it will be much more troublesome to do things in the future!"

"Boss, can I intervene?" Teacher Liu suddenly raised his hand and asked.

"What?" Fan Wubing turned his head and asked.

Teacher Liu said with a wry smile, "Actually, boss, you have already shown your face. As for the single we produced this morning, I have sent it to Shanghai TV Station. They appreciated it very much, and it has been arranged on the recommended column of golden songs. Watch it." This is the time, it should have been broadcast live."

ah? ! Fan Wubing was immediately dumbfounded. Originally, he planned to entertain himself, but who knew that Xia Xue encouraged him to turn it into mTV. Now it is even better, and it has been on the screen before it is officially launched!

Teacher Liu looked at Fan Wubing with some apprehension, wondering if the boss would be furious and fire him directly.

Under everyone's gaze, Fan Wubing sighed and said, "Oh, it's already like this anyway, so let's break it! What time did you arrange that charity party? I have to give myself Order two decent clothes? Now that you are famous, you can't be ashamed anymore!"

"Xiaoxue, why don't you accompany Mr. Fan to the party together, I think you guys cooperated well." Xia Donghai didn't forget to bring his daughter along.

Well, that's fine too. Fan Wubing nodded, thinking that at least someone he knew would participate together, so he wouldn't be too depressed.

Feng Xiaonan handed the invitation letter of the party to Fan Wubing. The time and place were very specific, so don't worry about making a mistake. There are three more invitation letters of the same kind. The three of them must be present. As for the entourage People are not allowed to enter, this is also for the sake of safety.

"Okay, I'm fine, I'll go back to the hotel first." Fan Wubing waved his hand, and asked suddenly when he was about to go out, "Where did Xiaoji Wuzhi go?"

"The Japanese?" Xia Xue asked, and seeing Fan Wubing nodding, he replied, "When you were drunk yesterday, he came over to take a look, and then went back to the hotel first."

Oh, Fan Wubing thought to himself that this guy was also self-conscious and didn't stay here to harass him.

After Fan Wubing left, Xia Donghai asked Mr. Liu, "Old Liu, did you really send the disc to the TV station?"

"How can it be so fast? Didn't I help you drive the ducks to the shelves?" Teacher Liu said with a smile.

After Fan Wubing returned to the hotel, he saw Wuzhi Xiaoji, and immediately called several financial experts under him to call them over for a meeting.

"Boss, is there any important matter that needs a meeting?" Wu Zhi Xiaoji, who is a die-hard fan of Fan Wubing, felt a little strange, so he asked.

"Of course, now there is an opportunity to make a lot of money, we can't let it go!" Fan Wubing replied very positively. *
