Rebooting the Peak Years of 1985

Chapter 13 Computers in the 80s

Diplodocus' tone didn't sound like he was joking.

In fact, he was deliberately trying to embarrass Du Ming. The purpose was to go to the printing factory and print out these leaflets.

"I really can't get it tomorrow. Besides, my dad is the director of the factory. I can't afford your 400 yuan. It's just that time is too tight."

Du Ming had a pleading tone.

Diplodocus pretended to sigh and said helplessly: "Well, you do me a favor and I'll give you some time off."

As soon as Du Ming heard that there was something going on, he immediately asked, "What's the deal? As long as I can do anything except money."

"Aren't you talking nonsense? How can you have money now? That's right. You can help me print a batch of things in the printing factory. It's not much. It's as big as our book. Just print a few hundred copies."

After Diplodocus finished speaking, Du Ming was stunned for a moment, and it was a bit difficult to read his expression.

"If you don't want to, there's nothing I can do. You can only give me money tomorrow."

Diplodocus added another sentence.

"I didn't say I wasn't willing. It's just that if others find out, tell my dad and I'll be finished."

Du Ming frowned, feeling very embarrassed.

"Can you handle the machines in the printing shop?"

Diplodocus then asked.

"Definitely. My dad has let me study there for a long time. Even now, I have to go there every day, or I will get a beating."

After listening to Du Ming's words, Liang Long had an idea in his mind.

"Isn't this easy to do? If you get the key to the factory, let's sneak in at night, turn on the machine, and get a few hundred sheets out. Isn't that a trivial matter?"

Diplodocus has so many evil ideas.

Du Ming thought about it and realized that this thing seemed to work. He could operate the machines anyway.

They are all big papers. According to what Diplodocus said, there are dozens of them on one piece of paper. Isn't it just a matter of ten pieces of paper? I'm sure the factory won't find it.

Besides, there are no cameras in this era, so if you sneak in secretly, no one will know.

"Then you have to go with me, I can't do it alone."

Du Ming finally agreed.

"Why don't we go tonight? I have a buddy. There are three of us. He can probably help."

The buddy in Diplodocus's mouth was naturally Chen Huajiang.

"Do you have a template ready? Is it possible that you went to paint it now?"

"I just went to Xianhua. Man, I have the ability."

Liang Long took him and went to the snack bar to find Chen Huajiang. Chen Huajiang and Da Guang just finished packing and were about to go home.

After pulling Chen Huajiang aside, Liang Long whispered: "Let's sneak into the printing factory at night and get a batch out. Did you see that guy is the son of the factory director and owes me 400 yuan? I promised to give him a break for a few days. He just agreed."

Chen Huajiang nodded. He was also very good at this kind of thing. Let's get the leaflets out first.

"Okay, no problem. I have something else to tell you. I'll tell you when we finish getting the flyers."

Chen Huajiang made a fool of himself, but Liang Long didn't ask any questions.

After the three of them arrived at the printing shop together, Du Ming went home to get the keys.

His father had fallen asleep long ago, and the key was hanging on the wall in the living room. After Du Ming successfully obtained it, he quickly went to the printing shop.

The three of them must not enter through the front door, as they will be seen by the concierge.

Therefore, the three people climbed over the wall. The walls at that time were relatively low, and they could go up in one step.

After entering, Du Ming led the two of them to a relatively large workshop.

There are a lot of equipment here that Chen Huajiang and Liang Long don't know about.

"Don't touch the others. Come here with me. The printing is here!"

Du Ming arrived in front of a large machine.

Machines from the 80s were indeed a bit bulky.

"You draw the drawing first."

Du Ming urged, Diplodocus hurriedly found a piece of paper, started drawing by shining the flashlight.

Chen Huajiang looked at the screen on the machine and realized that it was a computer.

"Stop drawing, use this machine."

Chen Huajiang quickly turned on the computer. The computer at this time was very bulky.

He quickly found the drawing, and drew the blueprint neatly, anyway, the simpler the better.

Liang Long and Du Ming were both dumbfounded.

"Brother, why do you open a snack bar if you have such skills? If you take any class, the salary will be one hundred."

Du Ming was very surprised.

At that time, there were very few people who could use computers so fluently.

The salary of talents with this kind of technology is also very high, already in the hundreds.

"I don't like a hundred a month, so print it quickly!"

After Chen Huajiang finished it, he started printing, which was all connected to the computer.

Just play with it casually, and Chen Huajiang can master it.

Soon, a dozen large sheets of paper came out, with many small leaflets on them.

This requires them to go back and cut it themselves.

"Go, go."

Chen Huajiang rolled up the printed paper, put it under his arm, and then led the two of them out over the wall.

The problem with the flyer was finally solved, and Diplodocus was very happy.

After Du Ming left, Chen Huajiang asked: "Liang Long, you can bring more people to our snack bar tomorrow. Tonight, a bald man went there with a bunch of boys. After eating, he didn't give me any money. I beat him up." After a meal, I said I would come over tomorrow night to pay them, and I was worried that they would bring someone over.”

Upon hearing this, Diplodocus became a little worried.

"This bald man is not easy to mess with, but there is one person who can subdue him, and that is Hei Hu. He runs a dance hall. I happened to have met this guy a few times. How about we go find him?"

Diplodocus thought of Black Tiger. He also knew about Bald Head, but if there was a real fight, Diplodocus's people would not be enough.

"But why does Black Tiger help us? He is not familiar with us."

Chen Huajiang felt that this matter was not reliable.

"That's right. This Black Tiger charges money for helping others settle matters, and it's thousands, and we don't have any!"

"It's not necessary. Please take me there first to see if his dance hall is big?"

Chen Huajiang suddenly thought of a way. If Black Tiger's dance hall is large, these will also be some of his future customers.

You know, those who went to the dance hall back then were all in good condition, and they were the main consumer groups who could attract these people to their store.

If not, give Black Tiger [-]% of the shares. No one will cause trouble in the future, and you can also promote yourself. You can get both, why not?

"Come on, the dance hall won't close until midnight. I guess he'll be there now!"

Liang Long took Chen Huajiang to Black Tiger's dance hall.

The dance hall at that time was very simple, but the place was quite large.

When Chen Huajiang and the others went there, there were quite a few people!
Diplodocus walked over and asked where Black Tiger was. After a while, Black Tiger came out.

"Diplodocus, why do you have time to come to my place today? Didn't you bring your female companion?"
