Reborn next door twins first grow up

Chapter 29 The Business Behind the One-inch ID Photo
"Lingyi Lingyi, wake up!"

"Aren't you bothered?" My sister muttered through the receiver.

"I'm not by your side, don't you even sleep well?"

"Jia'er, you don't need to come back." Gu Lingyi yawned, although she was teasing her sister, but her tone was calm, "I slept in your lower bunk by myself, and I slept soundly and comfortably."

Gu Jiaer imagined whether her sister was sleeping or not, a lazy big character, her bed would be scrambled by Gu Lingyi.

Forget it, go back and settle the score with her.

"Hee hee, do you miss me?"

"Do not want to."

"I do not believe."

Gu Lingyi smiled knowingly, and said softly: "When I miss you, I just look in the mirror myself."

Twins look alike anyway.

After chatting for a few words, Gu Jiaer got to the point.

"Lingyi, let me tell you something serious."

"You secretly tidy up my closet, don't let mom and dad see, bring more clothes, shoes, and my cosmetics, put them in the suitcase, it's best to fill it up. Lingyi, I'll send it to you, Aunt Feng the address of."

"Didn't you agree to come back after playing for two days?"

She heard Gu Lingyi get up in a panic.

"Jiaer, how long do you want to live outside?"

"Just now you advised me not to go home." Gu Jiaer pouted.

Gu Lingyi said in a waxy voice, "I just feel that Mom hasn't hit you for a long time..."

Gu Jiaer was not afraid at all: "Ling Yi, don't interrupt, there is a second thing..."

"It's agreed in advance that I won't mail you the suitcase. You still don't want to disturb your parents... Without their car, why don't you let me drag the suitcase to the logistics point?"

"That's the second thing I said."

Gu Jiaer wanted something from her, so she changed her title and tone: "Sister~ You've been free recently, right?"

……

After the game was over, the players stretched their legs and feet in front of the parallel bars. At this time, there were a few elongated shouts from a distance.

"Miss Ai—"

Li Zhaohui followed the prestige and said, "Isn't this the group of advertising juniors from yesterday?"

Wang Xueai: "Our team appeared on camera and helped them complete their homework. We can't work for nothing. I have given you some benefits."

"Hi, seniors and sisters." A junior in advertising trotted over, "I'm Yang Zekai from the 05th grade advertising class. You can call me Xiao Yang or Xiao Kai whatever you want."

Seeing that Lu Man was also in the crowd, Yang Zekai said "Hey": "This senior brother is here too? Great, we were in a hurry to shoot a film yesterday, and we wanted to find an opportunity. Thank you very much."

"Brother?" Gu Jia'er had a strange expression on her face, holding back a smile.

Everyone in the team exchanged glances with each other, tacitly tacit understanding.

Li Zhaohui smiled brightly: "Let me introduce you, your senior is called Lu Man, he is... ahem, which courtyard are you from?"

Li Zhaohui winked, implying that Lu Man made one up now.

"The Lu family's compound." Lu Man said casually, saying that you old fellows have no conscience, and you are cheating on the freshmen of the 05th grade, calling him seniors.

"Hehe, you brother Lu really know how to joke."

Li Zhaohui patted Lu Man on the shoulder with one hand, threatening with force, Lu Man had no choice but to say, "College of Literature, Chinese language and literature."

"Oh! It turned out to be a senior from the Chinese Department. It's a pleasure to meet you!" Yang Zekai said hello again and again.

The freshman went to say hello to several other team members, and he seemed to be very popular.

Gu Jiaer looked at the senior in the advertising class who was bluffed by several team seniors: "Senior, you are really lazy."

"It's good to get used to it. Fooling juniors and juniors is an indispensable pleasure in life." Li Zhaohui laughed happily.

"The boring 'food chain' of college students is like this." Lu Man lowered his voice and concluded, "The seniors watch the juniors teach the sophomores and lie to the freshmen."

Wang Xueai tasted this sentence, nodded in agreement with amused, Li Zhaohui was more direct, and gave a thumbs up: "Incisive!"

Yang Zekai didn't notice their conversation just now, and now he came back, and then said: "Sister Xiaoai, you tell us that we have time to help take a one-inch photo, that's it. Today we have applied for a SLR camera, and studio red the right to use the screen.”

"That's good." Wang Xueai greeted the team members to gather, "Zhaohui, blow the whistle and go to the S building to take a one-inch photo, it's free!"

"Is there such a good thing? Order!"

"Brother Luman." Yang Zekai said sincerely, "The rest of our class really want to meet you, and I would like to ask you to share your experience in filming."

Why do you sound like some weird movie director?Lu Man complained in his heart.

"Uh... okay."

Lu Man agreed to come down, so they packed up their things and set off towards the S building together.

Building S is the laboratory building, where the offices of graduate students and tutors, as well as various laboratories are located.

On the way, Li Zhaohui asked casually: "Miss Xiaoai, why did you think of asking the advertising team to take a one-inch photo of us?"

"It's expensive outside." Wang Xueai said concisely.

Yang Zekai immediately added in a postscript: "Isn't that right? Miss Ai complained to us at a dinner at the School of Journalism two days ago. She went to the photo studio in Wenzeyuan and charged her 30 yuan for a one-inch photo."

When Wang Xueai mentioned this, he felt a headache: "I think that as long as the electronic version of the photo is copied, it will be enough. I asked if it could be cheaper. The photo studio said no, and they will not bargain. If you want the electronic version, you have to pay an extra fee, plus ten yuan. !"

"It's really black." Li Zhaohui commented with a big black face.

"Who made them a monopoly business?"

Wang Xueai snorted and said, "There is a photo studio in each of the four dormitory areas of the school, and the bosses of three of them are all surnamed."

"The surname is 'Cong'?" Gu Jiaer thought, and this surname?
"The pronunciation is a worm, and the characters are the seeds." Lu Man explained to her.

"There is a teacher Zhong in the Ideological and Political College, and his relatives opened the photo studio." Li Zhaohui is from the Ideological and Political College, and he heard the inside story from the teachers chatting.

"Businesses such as taking graduation photos and ID photos at the school are covered by Mr. Zhong. With him controlling the price uniformity, there will not be a fifth photo studio in the entire university town."

Gu Jiaer asked curiously: "Are there any photo studios in other urban areas of Haiqu?"

"Yes, but students seldom go elsewhere." Li Zhaohui sighed, "The ID photo is different from ordinary products. People are afraid of taking the wrong version, and there will be some minor problems, such as the instrument does not meet the requirements, the background color is not pure. It is too far away. The merchants don’t know whether they are reliable or not, so if you think about it, it’s better to be slaughtered at the door of the dormitory.”

Taking photos is useless, and the cost of money and time is involved, so students would rather spend more money and choose a nearby photo studio that is guaranteed.

The reason why students in the advertising class can take qualified standard ID photos is that they can apply to the school for laboratory resources, borrow professional SLR cameras, and studios with standard optical conditions and curtain colors.

Lu Man searched for past experiences in his mind. In 2006, everyone was used to honestly taking a passport photo in an expensive studio.However, in a few years, everyone will use PS software to make post-production curtains. Basically, even some photocopying shops have opened ID photo business. No professional equipment and scaffolding are needed, just a white cloth and a mobile phone.

"There is not much demand for one-inch photos." Lu Man explained to Gu Jiaer, "There are 12 photos in one page, and many students only use one page for four years in college.

"If it weren't for the upgrade of Xuexin.com, the school would require paper photos, and the platform would require electronic photos." Wang Xueai grabbed the hairband on her head, "I wouldn't give them money."

"Xuexin.com?" Lu Man was taken aback, and he caught a glimpse of inspiration in a trance.

"It's the Sunshine College Entrance Examination Information Platform that Lu Man and your college entrance examinations will use." Li Zhaohui said.

"It has just been fully upgraded this year, and it has a new name, Xuexin.com. So the school is busy updating student files and re-uploading some materials."

"All the students have to do this?" Lu Man narrowed his eyes, calculating the number of people in the university city in his mind.

Binhai Normal University has a total of [-] students, if there is a demand for a one-inch ID photo...
