Countercurrent 1982

Chapter 622 "My Sun"

While Duan Yun was busy arranging his product promotion booths in the exhibition hall, outside the Canton Fair, Cao Dong, Gao Lei and others rode three borrowed tricycles to the gate of the Canton Fair.

For quite a long period of time in China, township and village enterprises and private enterprises did not have any means or channels to participate in the Canton Fair. Many well-known township entrepreneurs in later generations had the same experience back then, that is, they set up a stall at the entrance of the Canton Fair to sell. When meeting foreign guests, they say that their products are of the same quality as those of the state-owned enterprises in the venue, but the prices are very cheap.

In addition, some people walked in from the sewer, took their product brochures, and went to the Canton Fair to find customers.

A few days ago, Duan Yun met with Cui Lin, Cao Dong and others, and made some simple arrangements for them, asking them to rent tricycles in advance. Before the start of the Canton Fair at 5 o'clock, I rode a long way to set up a stall at the entrance of the Canton Fair.

When Cao Dong, Cui Lin and others came to the gate of the Canton Fair, there was already a sea of ​​people outside the venue. Like them, many bosses and employees of township enterprises and private companies from all over the country had already set up booths here in advance. It was very crowded and crowded.

Although Cao Dong and others had breakfast before 5:[-] and went out, they still did not expect so many people to gather at the entrance of the venue. In fact, their experience is still a little bit. Many private business owners who have participated in several sessions of the Canton Fair before, The night before, people have been arranged to snatch up the booths here, hoping to be as close as possible to the Canton Fair Complex and attract more foreign businessmen's attention.

Cao Dong and others quickly selected an open space, set up tables, chairs and benches, and then carefully unloaded the sample speakers from the car.

After dismantling the layers of sponge packaging outside, each mini speaker with bright colors and very fashionable and beautiful shape attracted many passers-by in an instant. In addition to seven or eight mini subwoofer speakers, there are two nearly one-meter-high speakers. , The thick and traditional wooden subwoofer speaker was also placed in the open space in the middle of the booth. Finally, Gao Wei jumped off the tricycle carrying a Sanyo tape recorder and a large bag of tapes.

The power supply is the most difficult problem to solve if you want to show the performance of the speaker outdoors. At first, Duan Yun wanted to directly use the AAA battery as a battery pack to drive the speaker and recorder to play, but he felt that the power supply was still not enough, and the power of the battery was too small. , also simply can not drive the subwoofer I am also responsible for bringing the big speakers this time.

So Duan Yun thought of a way later, directly disassembled the batteries of the two Jiefang trucks in the factory and his two 212 jeeps. Yun asked Cao Dong and others to bring the four large batteries and the speakers to Guangzhou.

Gao Lei also temporarily put aside his current business this time and came here to help Duan Yun sell audio products. Since he often comes to Guangzhou, he is familiar with the situation here, and he has also learned fluent Cantonese in the past six months, and he is able to communicate with the locals. There is no barrier to communication.

When Duan Yun and others connected and placed all the speaker equipment, they immediately attracted many people to watch.

Compared with other cities in the mainland, Guangzhou in the early 80s was relatively quick to contact with foreign cultures. Speakers and electrical equipment were not uncommon in Guangzhou. Many Guangzhou people who got rich first bought high-end speakers at home, and even had special Audiophiles Association, they have higher requirements for the quality of life.

"Do you make all the speakers by hand?" At this time, a middle-aged man in a suit and sunglasses came over, took off his sunglasses, looked carefully at the various speakers on the booth, and asked curiously .

"Yes, our speakers are all handmade. Compared with the imported speakers on the market, the sound effect is more shocking. It is definitely the best choice for audio equipment whether it is for home use or for corporate events!" Cao Dong stepped forward. Hehe said with a smile to that person.

"Blow it, just your handmade speakers, can they be better than imported speakers?" The middle-aged man wearing sunglasses said disapprovingly.

"What I'm not good at in my life is bragging. I'm not afraid of ignorance, but I'm afraid of comparing goods. To tell you the truth, our set of speakers is called a subwoofer, and we are the only ones in the country who can produce it. There are no other countries like this. Stuff, this is the first time to participate in the Canton Fair, so there will be a discount on the price..." Cao Dong said with a smile on his face.

"Subwoofer? Just this broken speaker can be called a cannon?" The middle-aged man wearing sunglasses shook his head, only to hear him continue: "I said little brother, I have also played with speakers for several years, and the home-made , There are imported speakers, especially imported Japanese speakers. I have bought Sanyo Sharp’s. It’s not that I said that compared with Japanese speakers, domestic speakers are just a child’s play, and your handmade speakers are even worse. If it is reliable, it will fool the layman."

"Looking at the fancy speaker, it's just a decoration. Do you expect him to really listen to music?" A young guy next to him also said.

"The casing is not bad, but there is nothing good about domestic speakers, and they can be used as amplifiers."

All of a sudden, there were more and more crowds of onlookers, all of them posing as speakers experts, commenting on the products on the booth.

In fact, except for the one wearing sunglasses, the rest of these people are basically laymen, but when they evaluate the products on Cao Dong’s stall, they just grasp that domestic products are definitely not as good as imported ones, and this is also a common trend among Chinese people. Cognition, so in an instant, it seems that many people onlookers have become "experts" in this area.

"Brother, I can see that you are a knowledgeable person." At this moment, Gao Lei walked up to the middle-aged man in sunglasses and said, "Aren't you curious why our speaker is called a subwoofer? I'll give it to you right now." Show it."

"Okay, I'll watch." Hearing this, the man in sunglasses put his hands on his chest and nodded with a smile.

The next moment, Gao Lei took out a piece of glass from the tricycle and placed it in front of the wooden table in the booth. He took out a disc of Pavarotti's tenor album "My Sun" from his bag and put it in the Sanyo recorder. After connecting two large speakers, after turning on the power, the start button was pressed.

After the prelude to the first paragraph, Pavarotti's high-pitched voice instantly spread over the entire venue through two high-frequency subwoofers.

Pavarotti, that bright, gorgeous, metallic luster, and penetrating voice combined with the enhanced sound effect of Duan Yun's subwoofer, instantly attracted the attention of all passers-by within tens of meters of the surrounding area. here.

The man in sunglasses who was closest to the booth felt even more intense excitement at this moment, and when Pavarotti sang to the climax, everyone's heart beat suddenly accelerated, and their hair seemed to stand on end suddenly. An unspeakable shocking feeling.

"Snapped!"

When the whole song "My Sun" was about to end, the glass standing on the table in the booth shattered instantly, and the transparent and crystal-clear fragments were scattered on the ground like diamonds. Under the refraction of the sun, it made people feel dazzling for a while...
