Chapter 33 Bicycles

(Just a question, have you recharged? Why is there no movement?)
"Oh, that's great. From now on, you won't be afraid of the dark when you walk at night. Look at how clear the light is, and it can be far away." The little girl chirped, and because she was riding slowly, she twisted Moving his body to keep his balance, he talked excitedly, and looked back at Xiaowei standing by the road from time to time, he was extremely busy.

Xiaowei stood by the side of the road, raised his hands to support him and said, "Be careful, be careful, don't look blindly, look ahead and look ahead."

The bicycle turned crookedly and stopped in front of Xiaowei. Xiaohong stood firm with one foot on the ground, and said, "Brother Guizi, why do you think it lights up when you pedal?"

Xiaowei said: "Did you see that there is an iron bump on the wheel? If you pull it over, it will stick to the wheel. When the wheel turns, it will turn, and there will be electricity."

Holding on to the handlebar, Xiao Hong leaned down hard to look at the front wheel, shook her head left and right for a while and said, "Really, there is. Oh, it really moves when you pull this one. The design is really good. Why don’t you think our domestic bicycles don’t use this thing? How convenient it is. When I was a child, my dad rode a bicycle at night and had to hold an electric baton in his empty hand.”

Xiaowei rubbed his hands and said, "It's getting cold. I don't know. It's probably quite expensive, or it just can't be made."

Xiaohong blinked her eyes and thought about it, nodded, and said: "Well, it should be quite expensive, or the patent cannot be bypassed. The principle of this thing is very simple, and it is not difficult to make. I should be able to make it."

There was a loud bang, and Chen Hui came from a distance riding his Xingfu 250. Both Xiaowei and Xiaohong turned their heads to look at it, and almost everyone nearby turned their heads to look at it in unison.The sound of this thing is really a bit loud.

In fact, Happiness 250 has lost its former status and prestige in the early 90s, but there are still not few people riding it. In this year, a motorcycle is a few years' wages for a national worker, and it is not a mass consumer product. In the early 90s, the most popular motorcycles on the market were all Japanese cars, or Sino-Japanese joint venture cars like Honda Wuyang Hongdu Yamaha Jialing Honda. The price of Honda Wuyang 90 was 19800, and Hongdu 22500 .

The so-called domestic motorcycles have basically just started at the moment, and the reputation among the people is one word, bad, but it costs 6000 to [-] yuan to buy one.

This is an era of huge profits for the entire industry.

Chen Hui pulled out the key and jumped off the 250 in a smart way, and said to Xiaowei: "Where is Gaha?"

Xiaowei took a look at Chen Hui and asked Xiaohong: "What is a patent? What are you doing?"

Chen Hui didn't pay attention to Xiaowei and didn't care about it. He walked up to Xiaowei and said, "A patent is an exclusive right. Once this thing has obtained a patent certificate, it belongs to you alone, and no one else can touch it. You have to pay as soon as you touch it. This thing is protected by law and recognized by the whole world. What's wrong? You want to apply for a patent?"

Xiaowei looked back at Chen Hui and asked, "How can I apply for this, this patent?"

Chen Hui took out a cigarette, handed one to Xiaowei, took one himself, lit a fire and blew a smoke ring, saying: "Anything is fine, as long as you can prove that your thing is unique, like technology , process, design, formula, and even ideas can be registered abroad. Once the registration is successful, you can sit at home and wait for the money.”

Xiaohong got off the bicycle, put the bicycle in place and said: "Not all patents can be turned into money, the key depends on market demand."

Chen Hui smiled at Xiaohong, and said, "Hello, brother and sister, my name is Chen Hui, I live on the fifth floor, and I check the electricity meter. You study in the engineering college? It's amazing. You should remember me when you become a cadre in the future."

Xiaohong glanced at Xiaowei, smiled and said, "That's not necessarily true. I don't even know about graduation gaha, I have to listen to him."

Chen Hui looked at the bicycle on the side and said, "Are you guys practicing? This bike is pretty good. It costs more than 1000 new, and Biaozi only has one in his hand. You're getting a bargain." Have you ridden it? This bike is light and light, no worse than a mountain bike."

Xiaowei asked: "What is a mountain bike?"

Chen Hui said: "It's just a bicycle. The handlebars of that thing are straight, and the speed can be changed. It saves effort when riding. When going uphill, adjust the speed to a low speed, and on flat roads to adjust to a high speed. The tires are also wider than ordinary bicycles. That thing is said to be They are specially designed for riding in the mountains, so they are called mountain bikes. But I think there is nothing wrong with them except that they are more expensive than ordinary bikes.”

Xiaowei shook his head and said, "I really haven't seen it before, and I don't usually pay attention to it."

Chen Hui said, "You go to the Cultural Palace tomorrow. You can look for the parking lot. There are special places for mountain bikes and racing cars. The fees are much more expensive than ordinary cars. Usually, they cost [-] cents a day."

Xiaohong said: "Well, yes, we have them in our school. Other ordinary bicycles are not allowed to be put in there. Like our bike, I ride it to school without charging money, but that bike has to be charged. I didn't ask how much it is." .”

Xiaowei opened his eyes wide and asked, "Thirty cents a day? Has someone stopped?"

Chen Hui said: "Why no one parks. If you can afford such an expensive car, you still feel sorry for the little parking money. If you lose it, there is no place to cry."

Since 89, mountain bikes, road racing bikes, and BMX bikes have appeared in China, all of which cost more than 3000 yuan, and even reached [-] yuan at one point. At that time, bicycles were still the main means of transportation for ordinary people in China. It's so fashionable, riding a bicycle among a group of migrant workers, the feeling of riding a good bicycle is definitely better than driving a good car now.

At that time, the roads and bicycle lanes were much wider than motor vehicle lanes.

Xiaowei smiled and said: "No matter how expensive you are, you are not as awesome as you. You can hear the sound every few kilometers, and you can run fast and save effort."

Chen Hui looked at his 250, and said with a sad face: "Pull it down, this thing is outdated, look at how many people ride this on the street. Now everyone is Wuyang, Jialing, Yamaha, Awesome Qi Chuanqi, Yoshino, I can’t help it, the old man won’t buy it, saying that I have to wait ten to twenty years for my own salary.”

Xiaowei said: "Your wages in the electrical industry are not low. Isn't it enough to save?"

Chen Hui rolled his eyes and said, "Don't you spend money? Do you need money for smoking? Do you need money for drinking? Ballrooms, video halls, billiards, why don't you want money? I don't have a date yet. I'm waiting for a date." It’s good to be a housekeeper, save whatever you want.”

Xiaowei looked at Chen Hui for a while, sighed, and said, "Your life is really rich. You have to spend and buy good things. There is no such good thing in the world."

Chen Hui took a drag on his cigarette and asked in a low voice, "I said, don't you just stay at home and do nothing but go to work?"

Xiaowei nodded, looked at Xiaohong riding crookedly, and said: "Yeah, what's wrong? No, it's still a good life. What's the use of fixing those? I feel uncomfortable without money. I don't, I have to keep the money for myself." In your pocket, don’t worry. After Xiaohong graduates, I still have to build a house.”

Chen Hui licked his lips and pondered for a while, then nodded and said, "It's really useless. I was so happy at the time, I didn't pay for anything, and my money was gone. Come on, I will learn from you tomorrow and save money." Spit and said: "Hey, Xiaowei, have you ever sung?"

Xiaowei was stunned for a moment, and said, "What song are you singing? Where can't you sing? Where are you going?"

Chen Hui looked at him contemptuously, and said, "Karaoke, there is an accompaniment, drinking wine or coffee, you can listen to others singing, or you can sing by yourself, can it be the same as shouting like usual? What you live is A mountain cannon. One day buddy will take you to see and see."

Xiaowei glanced at him and said, "Don't you want to save money?"

Chen Hui's face twitched, and after thinking for a long time, he struggled and said, "How about I save less and spend less here? You can't just stay at home without doing anything, right?"
