Chapter 3170 Theater Engineering
Zhou Buqi was busy all day. In the afternoon, he went to the ministry to explain the situation, and then went to Estar to check the test results of the Bluetooth headset he designed.

When I got home in the evening, I found that Zhang Zetian had already returned.

This time she returned to China with Zhou Buqi, but she did not stay in the capital. Instead, she went back to her hometown in Jinling to visit her parents.

She will be back tonight as she is leaving for her vacation tomorrow.

Zhou Buqi smiled and said, "I thought I would pick you up in Jinling tomorrow morning."

Zhang Zetian shook her head gently. "Maybe not tomorrow. I checked the weather forecast. There may be heavy smog in the capital tomorrow morning, and all flights at the airport may be suspended. I'd better come back today so as not to delay tomorrow's schedule."

She brought back a lot of things in big and small bags.

There is also salted duck.

It's just that Zhou Buqi, Sun Wanran, Yan Qiqi, and Zhang Zetian were eating more than a dozen dishes, and there were seven or eight kinds of Jinling specialties that she brought back, so it was inevitable that it would cause huge waste.

However, this is nothing.

This kind of rich life is full of extravagance and waste.

It’s good enough to be relatively low-key in the country.

For example, during my vacation in Australia and New Zealand, the luxury homes were all equipped with outdoor swimming pools. In order to keep the swimming pool water clean, in addition to regular replacement and internal and external cleaning, the water is always kept running.

That is, the water outlet and inlet of the swimming pool are never closed.

At least several tons of water are wasted every day.

Many big shots are very concerned about environmental protection issues and call on people to save water, but they end up causing huge waste every day; they advocate that ordinary people should lead a low-carbon life, but they travel by private jets and luxury yachts.

Zhou Buqi is thin-skinned and never participates in topics related to environmental protection.

Although this topic, like feminism, is becoming more and more politically correct in Europe and the United States.

During dinner, Zhang Zetian hesitated for a moment and whispered, "I went home and saw my father. He said... he said the current economic situation is not very good and his business has encountered some troubles."

Yan Qiqi didn't understand what she meant, and continued to talk to herself: "Yes, everyone says so. Apart from the booming Internet industry, many other industries are not doing well, and many economic indicators are declining. It seems that Li Chaoren is selling off his assets and running away."

Zhou Buqi didn't respond, and smiled and asked, "Business is not good, but there is still business to be done. Don't be shy, just tell me if you need help."

Zhang Zetian blushed a little and said embarrassedly: "My father seems to be under a lot of pressure, I can't bear it."

"What business is he in?"

"Engineering design, mainly related to sound technology."

"Cinema?"

Zhou Buqi raised his eyebrows.

Zhang Zetian scratched her head and told the truth: "Some high-end cinemas may not be suitable. He has also taken over some cinema projects, but they are all ordinary theaters. They definitely don't have the technology to support the new Dolby surround sound that is popular now."

The more advanced the theater is, the higher the requirements for audio and video coordination. The most critical one is the sound system.

It requires meticulous planning.

Those world-class, top-end speakers, if positioned 10 cm forward or 10 cm back, will present different feelings of high, medium and bass to users. In order to achieve the best auditory effects, you must strive for excellence. This is a highly technical project.

The sound equipment in the top cinemas and theaters in China is all done by foreign teams.

Zhang Zetian's father is doing this kind of business, so obviously he is much weaker in terms of strength.

Zhou Buqi suddenly remembered, "Jieyu Media is going to build a theater, right?"

Sun Wanran smiled and said, "We do have this plan, and the total budget exceeds 8 million. Happy Twist's offline performances are becoming more and more popular. We always rent other people's venues, and the quality of the sound equipment, lighting equipment, and stage props are uncertain, which will affect the performance effect. Moreover, it is not regular, and we have to keep changing venues, which is too inconvenient."

Zhou Buqi nodded, "Yes, Xu Baihui told me that we really need a theater of our own. We can just buy one from somewhere else and renovate it. For a place like the capital, it's better to build a new theater ourselves as a landmark."

Sun Wanran chuckled and said, "They also suggested that this theater should be called 'Mahua Theater'."

"Ah?" Zhou Buqi frowned slightly, "Isn't this a bit bad?"

Sun Wanran said, "Well, this proposal was not passed. The opera performances of Zhixin Drama Club also need a theater. When Jieyu Media builds its own theater, Zhixin Drama Club can also perform here in the future. Later, the name of the theater was named after Jieyu Media."

Zhou Buqi said: "For this kind of theater performance, the requirements for the sound system are indeed not too high-end."

Sun Wanran smiled and said, "Well, a play or some opera performance is enough. If it is a top symphony performance, people will not come, they will go directly to the National Grand Theater, which has a total investment of more than 30 billion yuan."

Zhou Buqi turned to look at Zhang Zetian and asked, "Is this project given to you?"

Zhang Zetian's face flushed, unable to conceal her joy, "Is it okay?"

To Zhou Buqi, these were all trivial matters. He said casually, "If you have time, you can serve as a director in this theater project and learn while investigating. If the theater's sound requirements can be lowered and your father's conditions are strong enough, you can give it to them. It's okay. The power is given to you. You can cooperate with whoever you decide to cooperate with."

Zhang Zetian said excitedly, "Yes, my father can do it. He has participated in many large theater projects, such as Liangxi Grand Theater and Zhangjiagang Grand Theater. He has also participated in many large gymnasium and sports venue projects. During the economic crisis a few years ago, the country was engaged in infrastructure development, and he directly participated in 7 major projects, with a total investment of more than 5 million yuan for each project."

Zhou Buqi smiled and said, "As long as you have the ability, you are not an outsider. That's it. You have the final say on this matter. You can arrange it later."

After all, it was an innocent girl who followed him.

Always take care of it.

If there is no benefit at all, the girl's father would probably be very distressed, giving his daughter away in vain, and without even a legitimate status. Moreover, he is the richest man in the world, and he can't get any benefit at all.

Zhou Buqi continued, "This is just a project in the capital. Next, Jieyu Media may acquire a hotel or theater in Tianjin or Shanghai. We will renovate it and use it as our own theater. You can also keep an eye on it and let your dad handle it."

"Well, OK!" Zhang Zetian was so happy that she smiled like a flower. "This way, my dad will have nothing to say! Let's see how he can lecture me in the future!"

Zhou Buqi said strangely: "Why should I preach to you? Your father's small company only makes a few dollars a year. Your achievements have surpassed his a long time ago? Is he richer than you?"

Zhang Zetian pursed her lips and said with a smile: "My money all belongs to my husband's family. My husband's family is different from my own family. He has a new home, a new wife, and a son. After I went there, I was like an outsider. I am now a member of the Zhou family. A daughter who is married off is like spilled water."

Zhou Buqi said with a smile: "Don't be in a hurry to express your position. It is human nature to take care of your mother's family. However, you still have to tell your father that the business is about to be reduced. Business may become more and more difficult in the future."
