Reborn Tech Maniac

Chapter 390 Test the Power in Treasure Island

Lin Qingxia could tell just by his speech and demeanor that these two uninvited guys in front of him were definitely not serious.

Therefore, after hearing the other party say something humorous and apologetic, she cautiously did not respond.

Fortunately, these two people did not continue to entangle, and left a sentence, "Ms. Lin, please prepare for filming", and then walked out swaggeringly.

Lin Qingxia quickly closed the door, and waited for a long time with lingering fear before she fully recovered.

As soon as she saw the travel bag placed on the coffee table, Lin Qingxia carefully opened the zipper. What she saw was stacks of colorful banknotes and a script sandwiched in the middle.

Seeing this scene, Lin Qingxia couldn't help but feel a little stupid. It had been almost ten years since she had been in the film industry, and she had never encountered such a situation.

"Isn't this forcing others to film?" Thinking of the hypocrisy of the two people just now, Lin Qingxia was so frightened that tears glistened in her eyes.

After calming down for a while, Lin Qingxia quickly walked to the phone, intending to contact Tang Huan.When encountering such sudden troubles, of course I have to find my own man to rely on.

Fortunately, the female assistant came back from shopping at this time, which made Lin Qingxia, who had a companion, feel more or less at ease.

……

After seeing Tang Huan’s company in Japan with high-tech product manufacturing factories, video game amusement parks, etc., I have already witnessed the [-]-person tour group of Taidong’s listing, and I feel more and more that I am following the right person, haha He went back to Xiangjiang to help Tang Huan build momentum.

Tang Huan didn't accompany him, because he didn't want to go to Xiangjiang early and be yelled at by others, so it would not be too late for his subordinates to deal with the matter and come back again.

Anyway, the current situation is under control. First, under the premise of winning, we will observe which forces will jump out and stand against us; then, during the power gap during the handover of the Hong Kong Governor, we will announce the completion of the acquisition; and finally, during the Falklands War Before the end, determine the asset restructuring plan and hold a general meeting of shareholders.

However, some shareholders in London could not accept Jardine's name change and awkwardly refused to come to Hong Kong to support it.

For these ignorant people, Tang Huan just sneered secretly, "Let's go step by step, first straighten out the asset relationship and organizational structure, and then deal with you."

In addition, Tang Huan chose to stay in Japan for a longer period of time because besides inspecting some investments, he also had several cooperation projects to discuss.

The first step in the design of a multimedia personal computer is naturally to start with a relatively simple sound link.

Long before the Fangyuan computer could understand music CDs and CD-ROMs, Tang Huan realized the effect of electronic musical instruments on the Apple II and Fangyuan computers through the combination of function expansion cards and software. Musical Instrument Digital Interface - MIDI is the technology of musical instrument digital interface.

By the end of the 1970s, electronic musical instruments had become popular in North America, Europe, and Japan to the point where ordinary musicians could afford it. However, with the prosperity of the market, manufacturers had different standards and incompatible The problem is becoming more and more prominent, which naturally creates great difficulties for the interconnection needs of consumers' electronic musical instruments.

Take Apple II and Fangyuan Computer as an example. If they want to control electronic musical instruments produced by different manufacturers, they must launch different versions of the system accordingly.

Manufacturers should also pay attention to this call, so in June 1981, Roland Corporation, a Japanese manufacturer of electronic musical instruments, equipment and software founded in 6 - Ikutaro Tsuyoshi, the founder of Roland Corporation, made a request to the American Oberheim Electronics Company. The idea of ​​standardization was proposed by Tom Oberheim, who in turn discussed the matter with Dave Smith, president of Sequential Circuits.

In the original time and space, Dave Smith was known as the father of MIDI. He naturally did a lot of pioneering standardization work, and his work efficiency was very high.

By October 1981, there were three more participants in the discussion, Yamaha, Korg, and Hehe Musical Instrument Manufacturing Company. Tang Huan officially joined at the end of the first quarter of this year.

Following this trend, although the standard has not yet been formed, the size of the MIDI community has become larger and larger.

Different from the digitized data stream of sound waveforms such as MP3, which became popular more than ten years later in the original time and space, MIDI is a standard communication protocol.

With it, manufacturers of electronic musical instruments can establish a method for determining how computer music programs, synthesizers, and other electronic audio equipment exchange information and control signals with each other.

A specific example can be used to illustrate the significance of MIDI for personal computers, which can make the video games that EA is developing for Fangyuan computers more expressive in music.

Tang Huan has always attached great importance to controlling industry standards. There are many companies involved in MIDI in Japan, so he naturally needs to take this time to communicate, especially Yamaha.

While Tang Huan was busy with this matter unhurriedly, his subordinates reported that Lin Qingxia, who was currently on Treasure Island, had contacted him urgently.

Although there is no mobile phone that is convenient to carry around the world, Tang Huan has created a reliable global communication solution consisting of a satellite telephone network and a public telephone network for himself as a trapeze man. How long will he be able to receive the message.

Lin Qingxia is not an unreliable person, since Tang Huan made it clear that there was something urgent, Tang Huan didn't dare to neglect, and quickly picked up the phone and called.

After listening to Lin Qingxia's terrified account of what had happened, Tang Huan immediately frowned angrily, and said to himself, could it be that there are black forces on the Treasure Island who dare to meddle in the film industry so blatantly?
"Is your residence safe now? I'll get someone to help you change places right away." Tang Huan asked Lin Qingxia for advice.

"Don't bother me. I was just careless and let in the two uninvited guests. In fact, the security of my residence is quite complete." After contacting her man, Lin Qingxia felt a lot more at ease.

"The other party didn't tell me, who are they?" Tang Huan continued to ask.

"No. The two people put down a bag of money and the script. After letting me get ready for acting, they left." Lin Qingxia, who recalled it for a while, replied firmly, "It's all my fault that I was too panicked at that time. Come to think of it, I didn’t even dare to ask.”

"You don't need to blame yourself. Safety is the first priority. Isn't there a script? Movies always have to be filed. With this clue, I don't believe we can find out the other party." Tang Huan snorted, " You can rest peacefully, I will go to Treasure Island tomorrow."

After a few more sticky words, Lin Qingxia reluctantly put down the phone. Thinking of seeing Tang Huan tomorrow, her mood brightened suddenly.

With a backbone in her heart, Lin Qingxia became more relaxed, picked up the script and looked through it, and saw that it was an anti-Japanese movie called "The Red Army", which was so vulgar that it made her frown.

Especially when she saw that her heroine turned out to be a female bandit with only one eye, Lin Qingxia became even more disgusted. She threw away the script and began to think about how to deal with this matter.

My man is already busy, so I can't let him worry too much about such trivial matters.

Before she knew it, Lin Qingxia felt tired. If she hadn't been accompanied by a female assistant, she might have spent the whole night on the sofa in the living room.

Until this moment, Lin Qingxia deeply realized how important the female assistant Tang Huan had arranged for her was. At least in the current environment, having someone to talk to as a companion made her more courageous, and this night was not so... It's hard.

……

The next day, Lin Qingxia, who did not sleep well, woke up early, because she had something on her mind, so she didn't want to stay on the bed anymore, and got up to wash up.

At this time, someone rang the doorbell, and the female assistant who was also an early riser went over to check. Lin Qingxia, who was brushing her teeth in the bathroom, heard her say in surprise, "Mr. Tang is here."

"Isn't it a four-hour flight from Japan to Treasure Island? Why did you arrive so soon?" Lin Qingxia rushed into the living room regardless, and asked in surprise.

Tang Huan smiled slightly, "I have Silicon Valley One, why not leave early?"

Lin Qingxia was so moved that she threw herself into Tang Huan's arms and said with red eyes, "Doesn't that mean you spent the early hours on the plane?"

"The toothpaste foam on your mouth got on my clothes." Tang Huan smiled gently, and patted Lin Qingxia's back lightly a few times.

"Oh, I was brushing my teeth just now." Lin Qingxia screamed, broke free from Tang Huan's arms, and ran into the bathroom again.

Tang Huan's eyes fell on the travel bag on the coffee table, and the smile on his face disappeared immediately.

He walked over and flipped through it casually. The bag of money seemed quite impressive, but in the eyes of billionaires, it was not worth mentioning at all.

100 million Taiwan dollars may not be enough to convert into 3 US dollars, so there is nothing to show off.

Tang Huan snorted disdainfully, picked up the script and flipped through it. "The Pink Army" seemed familiar, but he couldn't remember the relevant details for a while. It is expected that this work should not be much better than The Nobody.

But as long as there is this name, there will be clues to be traced. I want to see who it is that dares to force my daughter to act.

After operating for such a long time, it's time to test how powerful it is in Treasure Island.

Tang Huan was thinking about it, when a faint fragrance wafted from the tip of his nose, Lin Qingxia, who walked over on tiptoe, took the initiative to send a sweet kiss, and asked softly, "Have you not had breakfast yet?"

"What do you have here? Take a bite." Tang Huan nodded and asked.

"The porridge I made yesterday, and the sugar I bought." Lin Qingxia replied coyly, "I've been eating outside for the past two days, and I haven't started a fire at home, and I haven't prepared any ingredients."

Tang Huan smiled slightly, not pointing out Lin Qingxia's mediocre cooking skills, "Breakfast should be simpler."

"Then I'll serve you a bowl." Lin Qingxia happily looked for the bowl and chopsticks.

"In a moment, I will go to the Information Bureau to check what the details of this movie are. Just pretend that nothing happened and you don't need to be involved." Tang Huan warned carefully while drinking porridge.

"I understand, you are thinking of me." Lin Qingxia obediently nodded in agreement.

……

Based on the relationship between Tang Huan and Mr. Song, he saw each other immediately.

"Oh, Boss Tang, brother Tang, you haven't been to Baodao for a long time, and I miss you brother." Mr. Song, who laughed loudly, received him very attentively.

"That's true, mainly because some of the atmosphere on Treasure Island makes me uncomfortable. In order to make everyone look better, I can only avoid it as much as possible."

Tang Huan sighed and complained rather dissatisfiedly, "To talk about it in detail, even if I have no credit for Baodao's computer information construction, I should still have worked hard. I didn't expect that what I got in exchange was boycott, what BIG5 Chinese characters?" The coding scheme and the five major Chinese software suites are clearly aimed at suppressing my Tangma and office software."

"For the achievement of own intellectual property rights, some methods are the proper meaning of the question." Mr. Song laughed, "However, they can't chew on such a tough bone like you, brother."

Tang Huan smiled noncommittally, "I'm here to ask my brother for a favor this time, help me find out the details of the movie "The Pink Army"?"

"No problem." Mr. Song asked curiously after ordering casually: "Brother, what are you doing?"

"Yesterday, someone sent two gangsters to break into Lin Qingxia's house. After throwing down a bag of money and a script with this name, they left."

Tang Huan sneered, "I really want to know who is so sacred and acts so arrogantly. According to this trend, if a pornographic script is forcibly forced, why don't you just shoot it? Or just put that bag The money is exchanged for two bullets, so you can use someone for nothing?"

Hearing this situation, Mr. Song immediately became serious. Gein Lin Qingxia and other well-known stars in Southeast Asia have long been an important part of Baodao's external publicity.

Now that the incident of being forced to make a film has come up, once it is publicized, it will really be easy to talk about, and it will be a big trouble.

Thinking of this, Mr. Song quickly picked up the phone and urged him.

Since the higher authorities paid so much attention, the lower officials naturally worked very hard, and quickly sent the information to Mr. Song's desk.

Tang Huan couldn't help but think deeply when he saw that the film belonged to Dengkui Film Company and was produced by Yang Pankui.

"This movie seems to have a positive theme." Mr. Song breathed a sigh of relief.

"Whether it is positive or not is not the point. The key point is breaking the rules of doing things." Tang Huan expressed his opinion leisurely, with a cold light in his eyes.

"Then what do you plan to do, brother?" Mr. Song let out a haha ​​and asked boldly.

"In the past two years, I have made some friends in Baodao. Now I really want to see if everyone is willing to sell my face to help." Tang Huan replied pointedly.

"Brother, it's best not to make too much noise, or it won't end well." Mr. Song reminded worriedly.

"Things are difficult, so you can show whether your friends are strong." Tang Huan shook his head disapprovingly, "Actually, I'm giving you a chance to play the autumn wind. There is a sapphire karaoke hall in Kaohsiung that is making money every day. I don't know if you've heard of it?"
