Not only did he not see the goods in stock, Song Yang also did not find the phone number of the wave channel manufacturer from the newspapers and magazines at the newsstand.

There is so little information available, and Song Yang, who was reborn in the Internet era, felt particularly profoundly.

It seems that we can only wait for the summer vacation. Let Dong Liming go back to Zhejiang Province to look for him and contact him later.

"Comrade, you have been reading this for a while..." the old man at the newsstand finally couldn't help but speak.

Song Yang was stunned for a moment, then quickly laughed along with him: "Sorry, I was fascinated by it. This book, this book, and..."

He picked out a few of the latest issues of magazines and paid for them.

If it weren't for the military school uniform he wore, people wouldn't necessarily call him comrade.

With this skin around, I can save a lot of trouble.

The security situation in the early 1990s was not very good.

When Song Yang came to the city, he not only wanted to see the current market situation of BP machines, but also wanted to buy books, magazines and tapes that were easier to buy only in the city.

As usual, I buy pirated copies of tapes.

There's nothing we can do about it, the money they give is the price of pirated copies.

Otherwise, a genuine tape will cost at least ten yuan.

What those guys want to listen to is a huge collection of pop songs, and such tapes can only be pirated copies.

I asked passers-by and found out that there are a lot of cassette tapes nearby, and there is also a video rental store with a very popular name: Galaxy Audio and Video.

As soon as I walked to the door, I saw a man standing up behind the glass counter: "Comrade, come to check? You smoke..."

Song Yang was stunned, looked at his clothes and then laughed: "Boss, I misunderstood. Look again, I'm here to buy tapes."

The store owner then came back to his senses, relaxed and smiled: "You are a soldier when you go out on the street wearing this?"

"I'm looking for some tapes." Song Yang didn't answer, but started talking about which songs he wanted.

At this time, the Four Heavenly Kings of Hong Kong's music scene had just come out, and they were releasing golden songs frequently.

Although the tape Song Yang wants is not difficult to find, the more complete the platter is, the better. This is also the fun of hunting for tapes at this time.

While all the tapes on display inside and outside the store are genuine, the boss has to look for these pirated tapes in the put away cabinets.

Song Yang watched him look at the store while helping him find it.

These days, private individuals cannot obtain a license to operate tapes, videotapes or even video parlors.

This Yinhe Audio and Video store not only sells cassettes, but also rents video tapes. It even has a video room in the back room.

Song Yang recalled that he looked a bit like a warrior at the beginning, and wondered whether he could sell the earliest version of the hand-crank driver here?

Business in the store was good. He found half of the tapes he was looking for, and two more people came over to rent video tapes.

The deposit is 30 yuan. If you return it within 3 days, you will only be charged 2 yuan. If you return it within 3 days, you will be charged 1 yuan per day.

There are also people who come to watch movies in the video room, which costs 5 cents per person, and they can watch as long as they like.

So after the boss selected seven or eight boxes of the tapes he wanted and let him choose, Song Yang asked casually: "Boss, your business is quite big. You also rent video tapes and open a video parlor. Why didn't you hire someone?"

help?"

"Originally, we only had video tapes. Now the competition is fierce, so I decided to sell tapes as well. Who can I hire? I'll lose money if I hire someone."

Song Yang was noncommittal. There was no way he could lose money. He was just busy and wanted to make more money.

People of this generation can all bear this hardship.

He added: "Then you have a wide range of products. Everyone I asked said you have all the tapes here."

The boss was quite pleased with himself: "After all, I've been doing this for a long time."

"Then do you have any good videos?"

Listening to the emphasis in his words, the boss looked serious and said with a smile: "There are so many good new movies! Just released last year, "The Deer and the Cauldron", "The Number One Scholar Su Qier", "A Happy Event in the Family"

", "The Unbeaten East"..."

Song Yang smiled and winked at him.

The boss frowned: "Brother, what are you doing here?"

"Buy tapes." Song Yang picked out the four tapes he wanted and handed over the money.

A box of 3 yuan is a reasonable price in Shimenzhuang.

The boss felt relieved after taking the money and continued to look at him: "You still want to rent two movies?"

Song Yang shook his head: "Boss, I have an idea for you to make more money. Do you want to hear it?"

The boss was happy: "Selling ideas? It's very popular recently. I think you are so young, you are still a student, right?"

Song Yang nodded and took out his student ID card to show him: "Listen?"

In this era, college students already have the status of cadres, and they can also enjoy many discounts with their student ID cards, so Song Yang naturally carries them with him.

But what the boss saw was mainly the words Yenching University.

The boss was really confused, and then he slapped his head: "Yes, yes, students from Yan University are undergoing military training at the military academy. Tsk, tsk, tsk, Wenquxing came to visit today..."

Song Yang smiled and put away his student ID card and asked again: "Listen?"

"Listen!" The boss became interested, "What ideas do you have?"

"What's your name, boss?" Song Yang put the tape in the military green school bag issued by the military academy and walked behind the counter, sitting down on the small bench inside without politeness.

"My name is Zhu Ziqiang." He also moved his old wooden chair to the side, "Classmate Xiao Song, you are different from the college students I have seen. You are not a coward!"

It seemed that seeing how confident he was and because of his identity, Zhu Ziqiang had some expectations.

But then he added: "But I can't pay for ideas like what the newspaper said. I can't make much money from this small business."

Song Yang understood, and just pointed outside: "Another guest is here."

When Zhu Ziqiang finished another round of work, Song Yang said: "According to the interval between these guests, you usually rent out at least a hundred video tapes a day, and you can rent out three to five hundred on weekends. You have a deposit of thousands or tens of thousands every day.

You can’t spend it, it’s exciting, right?”

Zhu Ziqiang looked at him: "Classmate Xiao Song, don't you look like a bold person?"

"Of course it's not worth it to waste money and run away, only small water can flow." Song Yang smiled, "Brother Zhu, I will help you come up with an idea, and I won't ask you to pay for it. You can help me buy a batch of tapes. When the time comes,

How about earning some hard-earned money and selling it to me at a lower price?"

"Tape? What tape?"

"Many of my classmates like to listen to the band Beyond. I don't know where to buy it cheaply."

What Song Yang said was not a lie. Many people indeed liked listening to their songs. After what happened next, there were naturally countless people making money through speculation. Song Yang just wanted to get some tapes in advance at a lower cost.

.

Hearing what Song Yang said, Zhu Ziqiang was a little surprised: "Since I won't lose money, what's not right? Classmate Xiao Song, what's your idea?"

Song Yang asked him to borrow a pen and notebook, and drew a box on the paper: "Galaxy Audiovisual Membership Card. Each card is given a number, and you keep an account yourself. If you pay 100 yuan, you will be given one."

With this card, you can rent video tapes with the card in the future without deposit. You will get a 20% discount on renting video tapes, buying tapes, and entering the video parlor. You can save 40 cents by renting a video tape. Even if you only watch one video tape every week, you will get a 20% discount in half a year.

I made back a hundred dollars, not to mention taking advantage of buying tapes."

He continued to explain why such a card is necessary and how to manage it.

Zhu Ziqiang listened to him in a daze, not wanting to understand the meaning behind it.

Song Yang continued: "After I apply for a card with you, in order to earn back as soon as possible, I will only come to you to buy tapes and rent video tapes. You save yourself the trouble of collecting and refunding the deposit every time, and the money will be returned to you."

If 100 people apply for the card, you will have an extra 10,000 yuan on hand, which can be used to buy more video tapes in a timely manner, so that the movies in your store can be updated and more complete. The larger the quantity, the lower the cost.

When your business grows, you can open more branches and find people you trust to take care of it."

"The most important thing is that some good movies can only be rented to members who have applied for the card. You have good movies that can only be rented to members. Everyone is a paying member, so you can rest assured that they will also feel comfortable.

As for the specific price to be set for this membership card and the specific discounts to be given, Brother Zhu will figure it out after you do the math."

Zhu Ziqiang's mouth opened wide.

The kind of good movie you are talking about, is it that kind of... that kind of...

However, after seeing his student ID card just now, it is really difficult to connect him with such a thing.
