Rebirth in 1989: Building a Chinese Technological Empire

"Xiaosheng, you tell me..."

Seeing everyone looking at him, Xu Dabao looked at Xu Huasheng.

"Grandpa, uncle, wait a minute, I'll show you something..."

After Xu Huasheng finished speaking, he stood up and walked out of the house to the yard, took out a box from the trunk and went into the inner room.

The inner room was the old man and the old lady's usual bedroom, and the large color TV that Xu Dabao bought for them was in the bedroom.

Out of everyone's curiosity, Xu Huasheng took out the DVD player, connected it to the TV, took out the disc and started playing it.

When they saw that the TV was actually playing a movie, Xu Qishan and Xu Huasheng's uncles widened their eyes. It was amazing that such a small thing could play a movie.

"Grandpa, uncle, this thing is called VCD, or video player. I invented it. We are going to produce and sell VCD in a while. The market prospect of VCD is very large. This time when I came back, I discussed with my father and wanted my uncles to go to various parts of the country as distributors. This business is very simple. We will directly send the goods we produce to them, and they will send them to the stores below. If the business is good, they can make hundreds of thousands a year without any problem..."

Xu Huasheng said modestly, not daring to say too much, fearing that they could not bear it. But even if he said it with restraint, this remark still made everyone in the room swallow their saliva.

In this era where the monthly salary is only two or three hundred yuan, making hundreds of thousands a year is a huge sum of money.

"Xiaosheng, can you really make so much?"

Second uncle Xu Dashan couldn't help asking.

"Uncle, the VCD market is currently blank. The total industry starts at least 10 billion, and our products currently have a first-mover advantage, and the patent is in my hands. As long as the operation is proper, it should not be a problem to take 10% of the market. Uncle, with such a large market, it is not difficult for you to make hundreds of thousands a year..."

Xu Huasheng's face was full of confidence.

Xu Huasheng knew better than anyone how big the VCD industry was. As long as the early layout was good, let alone 10%, even 30% or 40% of the market would be possible.

At that time, uncles who were regional distributors would not have difficulty making millions or tens of millions a year, let alone hundreds of thousands, and they would make money without doing anything.

Excited, everyone was excited, even the old man.

Since Xu Dabao had a promising future, the old man had been in a good mood in the past few years. And Xu Huasheng's admission to Yanda made the old man very proud. As a parent, the old man naturally hoped that other sons and grandsons would be able to have a promising future.

Over the years, the old man also hoped that Xu Dabao could help his younger brothers and sisters, but Xu Dabao was sometimes powerless, after all, his factory's annual revenue was not much.

"Xiaosheng, what do you want your uncle to do for you? Tell me."

Xu Qishan looked at Xu Huasheng, and Xu Huasheng nodded.

"Grandpa, if VCD wants to sell well, there must be one more thing. That is the disc. If VCD is a good gun, the disc is the bullet. But the discs on the market are very expensive. A genuine disc costs hundreds of yuan, so ordinary people can't afford it at all, so I came back this time to..."

Xu Huasheng talked about the pirated discs in detail.

If you want to make VCDs sell well, you must build up the pirated disc industry chain. If you want to expand this industry chain, Xu Dabao and Xu Huasheng can't do it themselves. After all, once VCD is on the market, Xu Dabao will pay a lot of attention.

"Grandpa, my dad can't do this personally, and I don't recommend that my uncles do it personally. It's best to find someone who has nothing to do with us on the surface, but is absolutely reliable to do this."

Xu Huasheng said seriously.

"If this happens, how serious will it be?"

Xu Qishan asked seriously.

"Grandpa, according to our current laws, the maximum sentence is three years and a fine. At present, our laws are not perfect, and the country is too lazy to deal with such things. For such things, we may need to act personally in the early stage. When VCDs are hot in the future, we don't have to worry about it. If it is profitable, they will spontaneously invest in this industry..."

Xu Huasheng's words made Xu Qishan and others laugh. A maximum sentence of three years, what's there to be afraid of?

"What are you afraid of, Lao Liu? You do it. But don't do it yourself. Just hide behind the scenes. Didn't you say that some of your comrades are going crazy because of poverty? It's just right. Give them a chance to make money. As for those people in our village, as long as they can make money, a sentence of three to five years is nothing..."

Xu Qishan looked at Lao Liu Xu Dafei and said, his tone was also very domineering. This is why there are many unruly people in poor mountains and bad waters. Xujiawan is too poor. Many poor children can't afford to go to school.Patients can't afford medical treatment, and they don't even eat meat all year round.

Now you tell them that there is an opportunity to make a lot of money, but it's a little illegal, and if they are caught, they will be sentenced to three years at most. For these poor people, it's simply a pie in the sky.

This era is the era of the rise of the grassroots.

"Well, Dad, leave it to me, I will definitely do it well..."

Xu Dafei nodded, and seeing Xu Dafei agree, Xu Huasheng also smiled.

Xu Dafei, Xu Huasheng's sixth uncle, is actually only a few years older than Xu Huasheng. This year, Xu Dafei is only 30 years old. When Xu Dafei was born, Xu Huasheng's grandmother was already 42 years old.

Xu Dafei has been a devil since he was a child. He has many brothers and people to support him, so he often fights with others since he was a child.

In the end, his family couldn't control him anymore, and at the age of 16, he was stuffed into the army by his grandfather. In the army, Xu Dafei stayed there for twelve years, and his unit was the first unit to go south to kill monkeys.

As for how many monkeys Xu Dafei killed, Xu Huasheng didn't know. Xu Huasheng only knew that Xu Dafei had a lot of injuries and had won the second-class individual merit.

After retiring two years ago, Zhang Dafei returned to the county and is currently working in the Water Conservancy Bureau. But now it seems that this job may have to be suspended without pay.

After only two days in their hometown, Xu Dabao and Xu Huasheng left. But this time there was one more person in the car when they left.

"Sixth uncle, there is no corresponding industrial chain for pirated CDs in the mainland. So you have to go to Hong Kong Island first, but it's a bit chaotic there..."

In the car, Xu Huasheng whispered. Hearing that it was a bit chaotic there, Xu Dafei's eyes lit up.

"Xiaosheng, don't worry. I have called some of my comrades. They will come to Shenzhen in a few days. As for the chaos, haha, can it be more chaotic than the forest in the south?"

Speaking of this, Xu Dafei's eyes flashed with excitement. Seeing Xu Dafei's expression, Xu Huasheng swallowed his saliva. Damn, Uncle Six will not be a fierce dragon crossing the river and become a tyrant in Hong Kong Island.

Thinking of this, Xu Huasheng was looking forward to it.

Now Hong Kong Island is in the most chaotic era. If VCDs are hot in the future, I will support Uncle Six when I have money. It is very likely that Uncle Six, who has money and connections, will become a tyrant in Hong Kong Island. If this is really the result, it is also a good move.
