With "Crazy Stone" so popular, it's not easy to book a venue.
Originally, the tickets for the last show of "Crazy Stone" in this theater had already been sold out. Zhao Xin bribed the theater manager to refund 100 people's tickets on the spot on the grounds of equipment failure, which cost him 2,800 yuan. Each audience member was compensated 10 yuan in cash, which cost a total of 3,800 yuan. The remaining 6,200 yuan was all used to manage relationships.
6,200 yuan in this year's time is really not a small amount of money, and a month's salary for theater work is only about 2,000 yuan.
One of the biggest benefits of booking the venue is that you can record with peace of mind. Zhao Xin took his brother-in-law with him and was responsible for shooting with a high-definition camera. The brother-in-law was responsible for fixing the imported high-fidelity recording microphone in front of the speakers in the theater. Microphone pickup.
Others who make pirated copies use portable DVs to shoot handheld, which results in a lot of noise, severe jitter, and serious interference. The sound pickup relies on the built-in microphone of the DV itself. Not only is the environment noisy, but the background noise is also serious.
But Zhao Xin makes pirated copies. He uses a high-definition camera with a tripod and puts it on the center line of the screen to shoot. The picture is stable and clear, which can be 80% of the genuine version. The sound pickup is even better because he uses professional equipment to close to the speakers. By picking up sound from a few centimeters away and recording the audio track separately, the recorded sound is not only clear and fidelity, but also free of noise interference, which is perfect.
Zhao Xin recorded the video and his brother-in-law recorded it. After returning home, he used computer software to mix the audio tracks and images together, and a high-definition pirated version was created.
The camera was in the middle of the third row from the bottom to capture the screen. Zhao Xin and his brother-in-law were sitting in the last row, smoking and laughing.
Since the pickup microphone is facing the speaker a few centimeters away, no matter how loud the two people speak, it will not be captured, and the two of them are completely unscrupulous.
Watch the whole movie in a private room, when the subtitles come out. Zhao Xin excitedly said to his brother-in-law: "After filming this film, once we go back and combine it, we will start production at full capacity tonight. When these CDs are launched tomorrow, they will definitely sell like crazy!"
The brother-in-law nodded and said: "Brother-in-law, I estimate that our film will be on the market for up to 48 hours, and the discs made by others after they pirated our film sources will be on the market soon after."
"These bastards are so fucking shameless. They just stare at us for piracy. They are so fucking filthy!" Zhao Xin became very angry when he thought of these pirates. He had gone through so much trouble to get the high-definition film. Source, they steal it as soon as it goes on the market, even their own KKK brand, so the window period for them to make money is only a day or two.
The brother-in-law said: "Fortunately, our 3K trademark is still somewhat well-known. Some consumers only recognize 3K when buying."
Zhao Xin spat and said angrily: "The key is that these bastards don't even let go of the 3K trademark! Look at how many counterfeit 3K discs there are on the market, all made by these shameless guys!"
The brother-in-law said angrily: "It's really depressing. I have to gain advantage from those sons of bitches again."
At this time, Zhao Xin stood up, waved to his brother-in-law, and said, "It's over, let's leave quickly."
The two immediately put away the equipment and left the theater. Zhao Xin's driver Wang Lei was already waiting at the entrance of the theater.
When Zhao Xin and his brother-in-law entered the theater just now, Wang Lei took the time to go to the Internet cafe next door to surf the Internet for a while. He had been chatting with a female netizen online these days, and the two sides were having a heated fight. Wang Lei asked this female netizen to be him a few days ago. Wife, the other party readily agreed, and from that day on the two began to refer to each other as husband and wife.
In the early days of online dating, it is particularly easy to stimulate hormones in a person's body. The same goes for Wang Lei. These days, all he can think about is his beautiful and sensible "wife", so whenever he has time recently, he goes to the Internet cafe and does nothing. , just go to YY to video chat with female netizens.
The two of them would video chat when they had the chance, and talk on the phone when they didn't. Moreover, in the dead of night, they would often have sex calls. Listening to the other party's broken breathing on the phone, Wang Lei wished he could fly to her right away. Go and make this happen.
This female netizen is outside the customs, and she has been sincerely attracted to Wang Lei in the past few days. She has always wanted Wang Lei to go find her, but Wang Lei follows Zhao Xin. He can only rest for a few days during the Chinese New Year, 365 days a year, and other times. I have been traveling all over the country. Although my income is reasonable, I can't afford the high expenses and have no money saved at all. If I really want to go to other places to meet netizens, I have to prepare at least two or three thousand to have the confidence.
After Zhao Xin got into his Passat, he sat directly on the passenger seat. Unlike other bosses, Zhao Xin liked to sit on the passenger seat the most, and he liked to put the seat as far back as possible.
After getting in the car, Zhao Xin couldn't wait to say to Wang Lei: "Shitou, drive faster, we have to go back quickly, we have to work all night tonight!"
After that, he lit a cigarette, took a few puffs happily, and hummed a tune happily.
Wang Lei nodded, started the car, and looked at Zhao Xin in the passenger seat with his peripheral vision.
Seeing that Zhao Xin was in a good mood, he couldn't help but said: "Brother Xin, I want to ask you something."
Zhao Xin laughed and said cheerfully: "You really know how to choose the right time. Brother, I'm in a good mood right now. Tell me! What do you want from me?"
Wang Lei said hurriedly: "Brother Xin, can you give me a month's salary in advance and give me a few days off? I want to take a few days off to go find my girlfriend."
Zhao Xin's originally smiling expression immediately turned gloomy, and he said in a cold voice: "Shitou, you're such a bastard, how can you be obsessed with a stinky bitch just by chatting on the Internet? Damn it, I'm so busy here now, why don't you leave?" What should I do here? Who will drive for me, who will help me pick up the car and pick up the goods? You don’t care about anything for a woman? It’s so muddy that you can’t hold up the wall!"
Wang Lei looked a little embarrassed and annoyed, and couldn't help but said: "Brother Xin, I haven't had a day off in the past three months, just let me rest for a few days..."
Before Zhao Xin could say anything, Zhao Xin's brother-in-law, who was sitting in the back, slapped Wang Lei from behind and cursed angrily: "Damn it, Shitou, you don't want to fuck anymore? Didn't you hear what my brother-in-law said? You've been so busy lately. , you actually still have the intention to pick up girls?"
The right side of Wang Lei's face was burning, and he felt aggrieved and angry. At this moment, he thought of the YY pop-up news he had seen while chatting with a female netizen, and made a decision in his heart, saying secretly: "Since you are unkind, then don't blame me. It’s unjust…”
…
It was late at night when we returned to the cannery. Zhao Xin and his brother-in-law went straight to an office of the factory as soon as they got off the car. A young man was sitting in front of the computer waiting. As soon as the two came in, he hurriedly connected the camera and recording equipment to the computer. Start reading the file inside.
During the reading process, he said to Zhao Xin: "Boss, I was bored just now and designed a small LOGO. I want to embed it into our video to promote our brand. What do you think?"
Zhao Xin asked in surprise: "What LOGO?"
"Let me show you." The young man opened the video production software, added a video, and then added a LOGO file. That LOGO was Zhao Xin's 3K logo, but the young man designed a rotating dynamic for the 3K logo, and then Place it in the upper right corner of the video source file, so that the 3K logo in the upper right corner will keep rotating during the video playback process.
While demonstrating, the young man said: "We add such a logo to all videos, so that even if someone pirates our disk, there is no way to remove the logo. In this way, our 3K brand awareness will be greater."
Zhao Xin nodded with satisfaction and said with a smile: "This is quite interesting! I think it's good. All the movies we release in the future will have this logo!"
"Okay." The young man received confirmation and nodded excitedly in agreement.
After the video files and sound files are read from different devices, the young people start to do video synthesis. The video is placed in a separate track in the software, and then the audio track is put in, and the matching point is found to synchronize the audio and video. In this way, the basic work is done.
Then, the young man added the LOGO and let it rotate slowly in the upper right corner from beginning to end. After confirming that it was correct, he clicked to combine.
Computer configurations these days are generally low, and the speed of video synthesis and rendering is very slow. It takes at least more than an hour to render the audio and video of a 100-minute movie.
While the three of them were waiting in front of the computer, the driver Wang Lei walked outside the factory and lit a cigarette.
When he was in the Internet cafe, he saw YY's push and knew that Makino Technology was collecting information on pirated "Crazy Stone" audio and video products from the whole society. He successfully reported a production line and after verification, he would get a reward of 100,000 yuan. That was One hundred thousand yuan! Now I drive for Zhao Xin and can only earn 1,600 yuan a month.
There are a total of five production lines here. I wonder if Makino Technology counts them as one or five? If it is counted as five, it is really developed, a full five hundred thousand! That was a huge sum of money that I could never even dream of.
Even if there is not 500,000 yuan, only 100,000 yuan is still very good. For ordinary people, it is impossible to get 100,000 yuan.
If I get a reward of 100,000 yuan, I can find that "wife" online. I can take her for a while and develop a relationship with her. She screams in ecstasy every time on the phone. , when I get to bed, I will definitely not let myself down...
Recall that YY's push stated that there are four reporting channels. You can report directly in the reporting link on YY.com, or you can call Makino Image's hotline to report. In addition, you can also send text messages or e-mails. Email is also available.
Moreover, Makino Technology has an additional note that is very important: if multiple people report on the same production line, the first whistleblower will prevail, and other whistleblowers will not be rewarded.
In other words, if I want to report Zhao Xin and the others, I have to do it as soon as possible, otherwise if someone else robs me of it, I won't be able to earn the money.
Fortunately, when he saw this push, Wang Lei was more cautious and wrote down the text message number of the complaint. He wrote down this number just in case. If Zhao Xin made him anxious, he could call him at any time. Send a text message to report him.
It seems that the extra insight I had at that time will be put to use now!
