"I've looked for it, and this is the only camera left. It seems to be well maintained."

This camera seemed to be quite heavy, and Uncle Luo was having a hard time carrying it, and he gasped.

Seeing this camera, Director Xue's expression suddenly changed.

"Tape camera? Are you mistaken...that this kind of antique camera is still there?"

Director Xue shouted exaggeratedly and said.

He glanced at the model of the machine, opened the tape compartment, and said speechlessly: "Panasonic m9000? I remember using this machine around 2000, how could it be in service until now?"

This Panasonic m9000 is a VHS tape camera. It was the undisputed king of cameras in the 1990s, but what era is it now

VHS tapes are those big box video tapes. You can tell at a glance that they are very historical. This camera is almost the same age as Nie Cai. Is it right to use this kind of camera to shoot things

Technology is advancing rapidly. Now CCTV has even eliminated standard-definition digital cameras. Such cameras have long been placed in museums.

"It's been refurbished once and it's still usable. Anyway, your column isn't a high-definition channel yet, so it's enough to make do with it."

Uncle Luo put the camera on the table and said, "I don't know what happened recently. All the spare cameras in the table have been taken out. Apart from the emergency support cameras, this is the only one left."

"If you don't bring something so irritating, at worst we won't take it for now, and I'll go find the Taiwan leaders to make trouble!"

Director Xue couldn't bear it anymore and said loudly.

He had been made angry by the young man from the Tongue Film crew before, but now that he saw this shabby camera, he couldn't help it anymore.

Others have taken away all the good cameras, but the people in my column can only use this shabby camera that is almost like an antique? Isn’t this sending beggars away

As a reporter, the camera is the reporter's "weapon". If the weapon is so far behind, can he really fight with others

Mr. Nie Caishao said that he was also a serious employee in Taiwan, so he should be taken care of in terms of work arrangements, but looking at this camera, I am afraid that even temporary workers would not be so fooled.

"Director Xue, I am also in a dilemma. There really is no other backup machine except this one. I can transfer a few to you for temporary use, but for a dedicated plane, I can only arrange it this way. Don't believe me. Go into the computer room and make your own choices, this camera is considered good."

Uncle Luo also seemed a little embarrassed and said: "How about using a handheld DV? Even though these palm treasures are small in size, the image quality is still good... "

But before Uncle Luo finished speaking, he was interrupted by Director Xue: "Uncle Luo, you are doing things according to the rules. I won't embarrass you. I will go find the leaders of the station. I don't believe they can be so stingy!"

After saying this, Director Xue was about to pull Nie Cai away, but at this moment, Nie Cai suddenly spoke.

"Uncle Luo, can I play with this machine?"

Nie Cai kept staring at the Panasonic m9000vhs tape camera and seemed to be talking absentmindedly.

“What’s so good about this antique camera?”

Director Xue gave Nie Cai a strange look and said.

"To tell you the truth, I am very interested in these antique cameras. I still have a few of them at home... I think this is a kind of occupational disease."

Nie Cai smiled and explained.

"Okay, then you take your time and watch, wait here, I will go to the Taiwan leader to ask for an explanation..."

Director Xue said something nonchalantly and left angrily.

Seeing Director Xue slamming the door and walking out, Uncle Luo said helplessly: "Director Xue's temper is still so explosive. If you want to see it, just watch it."

"That's great, thank you Uncle Luo."

Nie Cai was immediately overjoyed and quickly thanked him.

To others, these antique cameras are out-and-out rubbish, but to Nie Cai, this place seems like a treasure mountain!

When Nie Cai first entered the computer room, he saw a golden light appearing from the depths of the cabinet, which made Nie Cai become interested.

Back then, Nie Cai discovered an antique Leica 135 camera at a charity auction, and later discovered news points and permissions inside it, which seemed to open a door for him.

This Panasonic m9000vhs tape camera from the early 1990s has a bright yellow light flashing on it. This means that this camera must have experienced many major news events, and there should be a lot of news points that can be extracted.

Nie Cai picked up the Panasonic m9000vhs tape camera on the table and thought to himself. Immediately, the deep voice of the super news system sounded in Nie Cai's mind.

"News points are found and are being drawn... Obtained 548 news points, one with C-level authority."

Hearing the familiar voice, Nie Cai couldn't help but feel ecstatic. The news points of this antique camera really worked!

Although more than 500 news points and C-level permissions are nothing to Nie Cai now, Nie Cai is solidifying the dimensional space recently and is in urgent need of low-level permissions. The emergence of this antique camera just solves Nie Cai's urgent need.

"It seems that you are really interested in this kind of antique, young man. There is a whole cabinet with this kind of antique machine in it. I remember that when the station was established in the 1950s, there were a lot of machines stored here. This kind of You can play with it as you please, even if it breaks, it doesn't matter."

Seeing the extremely happy expression on Nie Cai's face, Uncle Luo couldn't help but smile and prompted.

These antique machines take up space and are troublesome when placed in cabinets. Logically speaking, they should all be eliminated.

However, these things are state-owned assets, and the prices were not low when they were purchased. According to the fixed asset management method, even if they cannot be used, they must be kept in the computer room. This is a rigid system of government agencies.

"real?"

Hearing these words, Nie Cai's heart suddenly moved, and then he was overjoyed!

Ever since he discovered a way to extract news points from antique cameras, he had always wanted to try his luck at a film museum or something.

However, until today, after entering the computer room of the central station, Nie Cai discovered that this is the real treasure house!

CCTV, formerly Beijing Television, was established on May 1, 1958 and is the oldest television station in China.

According to Uncle Luo, there are even many cameras in the computer room that were used when the TV station was first established. It's no wonder.

When Nie Cai entered the door, he saw the yellow light flashing in the cabinet deep in the computer room. At that time, he thought there were only one or two cameras, but he did not expect that there were so many.

Nie Cai's eyes shone, and his heart was beating with excitement - this time, he really made a fortune!
