Roaming In The World Of Film And Television

Chapter 452

This guy moves fast enough.

He thought that Ayang would wait for him to send Ruan Wan to the electronics market before doing the things planned yesterday.

“I’ll go to the first floor and have a look.”

Asking the two to look after the counter, Lin Yue went to the lobby on the first floor.

Probably because the new year is approaching, the passenger flow of the electronic market is much larger than before. From the face, most of them are 21-year-old college students.

Lin Yue turned halfway around on the first floor, and finally found A Yang who was surrounded by people in a counter selling BP machines, Dage and other communication equipment in the northwest.

“Ayang.”

He shouted outside the counter.

“Hey, you’re here so fast, Ruan Wan is gone?” Ayang introduced this sentence to the person next to him: “Hey, here he is.”

“Come, come, come, lad.” The middle-aged man in gray sweaters among the seven or eight people outside pointed to the movie clip that was playing on the computer window and said, “You invented this software?”

Lin Yue walked into the counter: “Yes, I invented it, how about it, is it okay to use it?”

In the middle stage of the 90s, the WINDOWS built-in player was unable to play the video files in the VCD, and could only use third-party software, but the effect was very bad, because most of the video discs on the market were pirated discs, and the quality was uneven. , Often appear not to read the disk, chuck, etc., and sometimes cause the computer to crash.

Lin Yue now sells video discs and also starts leasing business at Jingnan University of Technology. After he has nothing to do, he uses the compilation technology he learned before to make a decoding software, which converts the YUV format of the VCD to the RGB format of the computer, and named it Super Decoder.

When a software comes out, it has to be tested, collect bugs and opinions to improve it, and how many of the students of Jingnan University of Technology can buy a computer? So he turned his attention to the Zhujiang Road electronics market, which is considered to be the place with the highest computer penetration rate. Such software that can effectively correct and wear VCD discs is provided to them for free. Of course, there is no reason to refuse.

The middle-aged man said: “It’s very easy to use. It has better error correction ability than this year’s newest Aiduo VCD. We just tried it. You can easily open discs that cannot be read in the VCD with your software. .”

A middle-aged woman with towering cheekbones said: “Young man, I heard that the counter selling DVDs and computer CDs on the second floor belongs to you?”

Lin Yue said, “Yes.”

“What’s your name? How old is this year, twenty-one? Is there twenty-two?”

“Aunt, my name is Zhang Kai, and I will be 21 years old in more than a month.”

“I have such a business acumen at such a young age, and I can design and produce computer software. It’s really amazing. It’s much better than the little bastard who knows to go out after winter vacation in our family.”

Lin Yue said, “Don’t praise me. I also designed such a software for my own convenience, because it looks good. My friend suggested that I find a few more people to try it out to see if there is anything that needs improvement. ”

“It’s quite modest.” The middle-aged woman leaned a little closer: “Which university do you study at? Do you have a girlfriend?”

Lin Yue smiled awkwardly: “I am studying at Jingnan Polytechnic.”

“It’s great.” She wanted to say something more, and was pulled by a man next to her who seemed to be close to her, and then she closed her mouth sadly.

A man in his thirties nearby said impatiently: “Old Lu’s pretended to be, it’s up to us now.”

Ayang picked up the disc bag placed in front of the computer desk and got up from the chair.

Lin Yuewang, the counter owner, said: “Boss Lu, if there is any problem in using the software, come to the counter on the east side of the second floor to find me.”

“Okay, thank you, Xiao Zhang.”

Leaving boss Lu’s counter, Lin Yue and Ayang walked to a few more counters with computers, and they only stopped at noon. They went to a noodle shop outside and ordered two bowls of beef noodles and half a catty of beef sauce.

“Zhang Kai, didn’t you say that making software is very profitable, but the software you spent a month to make is so free for them to use, isn’t it a loss?”

Ayang is well aware of how much Lin Yue has put into “Super Decoding” over the past month. When Xiaopang and Siyan’er were playing games, he conceived the idea next to him, and wrote a section of the program code on the scratch paper. Sometimes Chen Xiaozheng couldn’t keep his eyes on falling asleep, and he was still on the bed with a flashlight to modify the parameters.

Such a good software is provided to the merchants in the electronic market for free, so how do you want to lose money?

Lin Yue said: “Some restaurants will find some people to try new dishes for free. The software is the same. In the long run, the’super decoding’ is just a stepping stone.”

“Knock on the door? Knock on what door?”

“If this software is really easy to use, do you think they would recommend it to friends? Once you develop a habit of using it and face an upgraded version with a better experience later, do you guess whether they would be willing to buy it for real money? ?”

Ayang was stunned, he really didn’t think so much.

Lin Yue patted him on the shoulder: “I haven’t heard a word, the free one is the most expensive.”

“But not many people can buy computers.” He still feels a little bit at a loss after thinking about it.

Lin Yue said: “VCD was still something that ordinary families couldn’t match. Now the so-called latest model with super error correction ability is only two or three thousand yuan? And you have seen it, claiming to have super error correction ability. The performance of the machine is not as good as the “super decoding”. VCD, tape recorders, game consoles, and even TV sets will be replaced by computer integration in the future.”

Ayang said, “You are not optimistic about the development of VCD, so are you still selling CDs at the rental counter in the electronic market? Oh, yes, the first batch of CD packaging papers provided by the printing factory have just arrived. I have asked Xiaohai and Awei Pick and bag.”

Lin Yue glanced at the passers-by riding a newly bought bicycle on the street outside.

“It should be a few years before the popularization of computers. During this period, VCD and its derivatives will decline over time, but there are still the last trains to make money. Now I upgrade from a night market stall to a rental counter. In my plan, it is to obtain Transformation funds.”

It’s the beginning of 1997. VCD will still be popular for at least two years, and then DVD. The widespread use of computers will start after 2003, so as long as you don’t drift off, you can still make money–why do you make so many VCDs now? CD? Because the profit margin is above 300%, there are many factories in Guangdong. Now is the era of VCD discs, behind which there are DVD discs, computer system discs, game installation discs… Even if you are just ordinary people, you will be on the market. If you do, it will not be a problem to buy two houses in BJ.

“Transformation?” Ayang felt that he was like listening to the heavenly scriptures. Student Zhang talked about it. It sounds reasonable, but there are too many things he doesn’t understand.

Lin Yue didn’t explain, but took the chopsticks and knocked on the edge of the bowl: “Eat noodles. If you don’t eat it, it will be cold.”

…

During the winter vacation, other college students ate their mother’s meals and slept late, visiting relatives and friends to play cards and video games…

Lin Yue was not idle. While studying sophomore courses in the Department of Architecture by himself, while improving the “Super Decoding”, he started his second computer application.

It was not until the third day before New Year’s Eve that he and Xiaohai and Awei boarded the return train and returned to the world to celebrate the Lunar New Year with their family members in this world.

Parents always have complaints. Although Zhang Kai’s family conditions are not as good as those of the rich second generation like Xu Kaiyang, they can also be regarded as middle-income families in regional-level cities. It’s okay to finish university stably. Where is the need for him to go to work-study programs?

Lin Yue didn’t tell them that he had made almost 8,000 yuan in the half-month approaching the end of the year. What he gave to the two elders was the final report card.

The third overall grade in the whole year compared with the repetition notice before the summer vacation last year, all of a sudden, this new year is more festive. In 1996, working families made money far less than good grades.

Because of this, Father Zhang’s whole person has a lot of energy, and he has a little more confidence in speaking in front of the second brother Dage.

The day before the Spring Festival, he went to the local department store and bought a Little Swan washing machine and a Haier refrigerator for his family. When the delivery master took the goods to the door, Mrs. Zhang accidentally bit her tongue, but he did not eat less dumplings on New Year’s Eve. .

After the Lunar New Year, he visited relatives and friends as before. After tossing until Friday, he got on the train to Jingnan Polytechnic.

He was staying at Xu Kaiyang’s house that day and asked Ayang to drink some wine in the evening.

After Xiaohai and Awei came back the next day, the electronic market counter opened. Selling CDs is not like the catering industry. During the Chinese New Year, it is the time when people seek entertainment, so business is better than usual. In addition, Lin Yue went there for a stop. [Bargain LV3] and [Senior Lady Killer LV2] opened, nearby colleagues found that they couldn’t do it anyway.

On the thirteenth day of the first lunar month, Lin Yue got a piece of news from Xiaohai. In the evening, he arranged things in the store, bought some longans and peanuts at the dry goods shop opposite, and rode the Flying Pigeon brand bicycle back to Jingnan. Polytechnic University, but did not go to the male dormitory, went straight into the deserted female dormitory and knocked on the door of Room 308.

Boom, boom, boom~

Waited outside for almost a minute before the door opened.

Nothing has changed.

Li Weijuan’s bed was draped with curtains, Ruan Wan’s bed was cleaned up, there were posters of goatskin bands on the wall, and Zhu Xiaobei’s net pocket on the head of the bed had basketballs.

Become human.

Zheng Wei stood in the deserted dormitory, gritted his teeth and looked at him for a while, picked up the pillow of his bed, and threw it away: “What are you doing? Who wants you to come, you go, you go!”
