Countercurrent 1982

Chapter 1712 Symphony of the Night

That night, the top floor of the Las Vegas Palms Hotel was brightly lit. Two chefs from France led their team to cook all kinds of delicacies on the spot. On the side of the balcony, a pianist from Germany Princeri played "Symphony of the Night" live.

Even for many well-informed foreign reporters, such a luxurious scene is rare, and as the host tonight, Duan Yun also wore a high-end suit, and began to talk to the reporters who came to the scene one by one. Say hello and pleasantries.

In the previous life, when Duan Yun went to university for the second time, he also met a lot of foreign students, so facing these reporters from Europe and the United States, he was able to exchange business easily. In addition, beside him, Li Yun also changed A gorgeous evening dress set off a slim and tall figure, and her long hair was neatly coiled behind her head, making her look beautiful and moving.

Over the past year, Li Yun's social skills have been greatly improved, and she has met many local celebrities in Hong Kong. It is precisely because of those contacts that she has opened up the market for Tianyin Group in Hong Kong, which has become a major market in Hong Kong. A well-known social butterfly in the business circle.

Also attending the dinner were Liang Mengsong and others who were in charge of organizing the preparations this time. However, compared to Duan Yun and Li Yun, Liang Mengsong only wore an ordinary suit, which was far less enthusiastic and sophisticated than the two of them. Until now, He still couldn't believe the scene in front of him was real.

Although Liang Mengsong is now the person in charge of Tianyin Group's American branch, he has not been with Duan Yun for a long time. It is also the first time he has seen Duan Yun's courage in handling affairs. Not counting the cost of subsequent gifts, the most expensive dinner he has had so far cost only $1.

And those reporters who came to the banquet were also shocked. They might never have imagined that a Chinese boss from the East on the other side of the ocean would invite them to such a luxurious dinner. Only young people in their early 30s felt a little unbelievable after they were actually rich people with a net worth of more than 10 billion US dollars, so that when Duan Yun shook hands with them one by one, everyone felt a little flattered.

Rich people will be respected by the country after they take office, especially billionaires like Duan Yun, even if he is a Chinese with yellow skin and black eyes, these foreign reporters who came to the banquet dare not underestimate him in the slightest. Duan Yun's face was full of smiles.

On the long table covered with flowers and candlesticks, all kinds of exquisite dishes began to be served one after another, and Duan Yun, who was sitting in the middle, stood up and made a toast. The moment the wine glass was raised, everyone They all stood up.

"The one with the striped tie is a reporter from The New York Times. It is the focus of our reception. You should pay more attention..." In the middle of the banquet, Duan Yun whispered to Li Yun who was following him while drinking a glass of red wine.

"I've already talked with him just now, and he said that he is very happy to do an exclusive interview with you, and the time is set for tomorrow afternoon." Li Yun whispered to Duan Yun.

"Very good." Duan Yun nodded in satisfaction, and then said: "When the banquet is about to end, give him an additional 3000 US dollars in chips. In addition to him, the other key targets we have screened out before will also be given an extra You don’t have to save me money if you don’t want children to be unable to trap wolves.”

"I understand what you mean, don't worry." Li Yun said.

"Thank you for your hard work." Duan Yun said with a smile.

In fact, Duan Yun brought Li Yun to the United States this time because she was needed to help deal with this occasion. At present, Tianyin Group has a lot of technology, but it knows public relations and communication, especially when facing these foreign guests. No one is better than Li Yun. Yun is better at it. In addition, Li Yun is a very smart girl. She can always quickly understand Duan Yun's meaning and complete the task excellently.

Taking the opportunity of this banquet, Duan Yun also introduced the current situation of Tianyin Group to the guests present, as well as the VCD products and 486 computers they launched this time.

In fact, Duan Yun just wanted to get acquainted with them so that these international media could help promote his company and gradually increase Tianyin Group's international reputation.

However, Duo Yun also knew that through this banquet, the effect would not be too great, and his next step was to rent the billboard in Times Square, taking the first step in opening up the American market.

The order for VCD in the US market has not yet been finalized. For this product, Duan Yun has other promotion plans.

Although compared with the popular video recorders in the United States, VCD does not have a particularly obvious breakthrough in picture quality, but it has its own advantages in terms of technology and cost.

In the next step, after Duan Yun returns to China, he plans to launch a home theater product with VCD as the core equipment for the US market.

For future generations, home theater is a very familiar audio-visual product, and it became popular all over the world in the early 90s.

Home theater is developed with the popularity of VCD. Its main charm is surround sound. It is necessary to place 6 speakers in the room, including front, rear, left, right, center, and subwoofer, to form a sense of surround sound and a sense of presence like a movie theater. .

In the VCD era, American Dolby Logic technology was mainly used to realize surround sound, and Japanese Yamaha's DSP technology was also used.

Since the VCD source has only left and right channels, the surround sound is picked up from the two channels and then simulated as a 5.1 surround sound effect, so the sound field positioning and fidelity of the sound are poor, and the manufacturer at that time , The business level is not enough, and the effect is indeed much worse than the digital surround sound of later generations.

At that time, some people who played HIFI audio looked down on those who played home theater, because for some audio enthusiasts, the sound quality of VCD home theater was really not very high.

But despite this, this novel and cheap product still has huge market potential.

Duan Yun started his business with subwoofers in his early years, and has accumulated enough technology in this area. In addition, after the VCR factory was put into production, Tianyin Group also mastered a large number of core karaoke technologies. With the current production of VCD products and previous technologies Accumulation, he is fully capable of producing a home theater with good performance in a short period of time.

Also in China, Duan Yun can also withdraw from this kind of home theater equipment, and gradually promote the concept of home theater to the whole country.

After the dinner, Duan Yun gave each of these foreign reporters who came to the dinner 2000 US dollars in chips. For some journalists from important media, Duan Yun privately gave them an extra 3000 US dollars in chips.

The first floor of the Palm Tree Hotel is the casino, and the golden-leaf Las Vegas is full of moonlight, full of luxury...
