While the cards were being produced, Cheng Ran was using CAD drawing software on his computer to define the outer box die. He then printed out the outer cover, pasted it on 1 mm thick grey cardboard, and then sealed it with a layer of oil painting pattern cold film. In this way, a beautifully looking box was formed.
Second Aunt's graphic company has no shortage of materials. They use some thinner cardboard to divide the box into functional areas for placing different cards, and a complete set of Three Kingdoms Kill is presented in front of you.
Looking at a box of finished cards, Cheng Ran was not actually worried about the spread of piracy. He just needed to run this thing as a brand. The copyright of the brand was in his hands. The spread of piracy was actually good for the entire brand... Of course, he only needed to get the first sum of money before piracy became prevalent.
Moreover, it was not so easy to pirate at that time. If you wanted to copy their products on a small scale, you could go to a copy shop or a color printing shop to produce them. If it was not your own shop, copy shops were making huge profits in this era, and the cost would probably not be enough for 50 yuan. He pushed the price so low at the beginning, it would be strange if the pirated products could beat the genuine products.
And if someone who has his own copy shop does this, as Zhao Qingfen said, it is totally unnecessary. Not only is it time-consuming and laborious, it is not as profitable as doing a few printing orders in the unit. It can make money like a money printing machine. Why bother with such thankless work
Only Cheng Ran would do this purely out of sentimentality.
However, whether this thing can be popularized at this time when the Internet is not yet well developed remains to be tested.
All I can do is... wait for the wind to pick up.
…
Not to mention, one hundred sets of cards, Cheng Xiang's printing shop can't finish it in two days, and in a blink of an eye, the weekend is over. Fortunately, these one hundred sets are just for stock, and there is not so much urgent demand, so they can be completed slowly. This made Cheng Ran think for a while. If he wants to make this thing, he may have to expand the scale, but it's too early now.
On his father's side, Cheng Feiyang contacted the Shanhai City Post and Telecommunications Bureau. With the intervention of Xie Houming, Jiang Jin, the then director of the Post and Telecommunications Bureau, agreed to purchase equipment from the local Fulon Company for an upgrade attempt.
This is also a last-ditch effort. Jiang Jin knows how his predecessors stepped down and how the people were resentful. Now all major units in Shanhai City have submitted reports to their Post and Telecommunications Bureau, and they are all disappointed with their work. This time, Jiang Jin was chosen by the mayor to take the office and he was asked to thoroughly reorganize and improve the post and telecommunications system. It is urgent for Shanhai City to build an international tourism festival city, and this is the important link of communication in the "general battle" proposed by Li Jingping.
Li Jingping is trying hard to make a name for himself in this field. In this case, if you fail to achieve results, you will definitely be fired, and no matter how famous you are, it will be useless.
Fulong Company's technical team has already entered the Post and Telecommunications Bureau. Among them, Li Mingshi is a college student recruited by Cheng Feiyang himself. After so many years of training, he is not as smart as Wang Xing who rebelled against him at that time, but in fact he is a technical talent who dares to fight and study hard. Li Mingshi's team stationed in the Post and Telecommunications Bureau was named "Special Forces" by Cheng Feiyang himself. They brought Fulong Company's "War Wolf" program-controlled switches to replace the vertical and horizontal switches left by Japanese companies in Shanhai City. Cheng Feiyang wanted to use this special force to open up the situation of the Post and Telecommunications Bureau.
Everything is ready. It just depends on whether Cheng Feiyang can pass the communication stability test required by the Post and Telecommunications Bureau after replacing and upgrading the equipment.
When the news spread back to the Huatong Company compound, it still caused a stir.
People in the compound also talked about this matter when they got together privately.
Liu Jun said, "This matter... is a bit fanciful... The Post and Telecommunications Bureau has been a mess for many years, and Cheng Feiyang dared to take it on..."
Zhao Pingchuan even shook his head. "The former director of the Post and Telecommunications Bureau was named Qian, Qian Ming, and he was very familiar with him. He had done this before, but he messed up and left. Cheng Feiyang didn't even consider his own weight."
Zhang Pi, who was of the same blood as Zhao Pingchuan, sneered, "Old Zhao... you are really awesome... You forced Cheng Feiyang to buy back shares and reduce cash flow. He is desperate now. If he fails in this battle, he will fall..."
At Yang Xia's house, Yang Wendong also discussed this with his wife, frowning, "To be honest, even though we have invested, I still don't think Cheng Feiyang has business capabilities... Anyway, we are not short of money, so let's just take a look at the prospects..."
Yang Xia, who was standing at the door of her room, walked out and poured herself some water. Seeing that her parents were silent, she returned to the door of her room and suddenly asked, "Dad, is Cheng Ran's home... okay?"
Yang Xia's mother stood up, came over to touch Yang Xia's shoulders, and sent her into the room, "Xia Xia, remember what your mother told you, your main task now... is to study hard. Don't think too much about anything else."
"As long as you get into a good university in three years, we won't care what you do then..."

…
After the military training period, I officially entered high school life.
In the competitive environment of the No. 1 Provincial High School, everyone is trying their best to get into the best state and work hard. Many young people who were ignorant before are also growing and maturing rapidly in such an environment.
Various inquiries and news about Qi Sheng, who showed up during the military training, were circulated among the students. Some people talked about how great Qi Sheng's family was, and it seemed that he was an official. Moreover, he knew some senior students in advance and had a wide network of contacts. Of course, these were all side branches, and more importantly, the sunlight that day was very gentle, and he left a deep impression at that time, which made many girls' hearts beat and it was indelible, and made many boys envious and jealous.
Of course, the biggest advantage of Qisheng is that the students who come from Dude Middle School feel very superior. This is what people in Shanhai City say in recent years. The teaching quality of the first grade middle school can no longer be compared with that of Dude Middle School. Now the first high school of the provincial key school is basically all students from Dude Middle School, which has suppressed the original first grade middle school students. It is not for other reasons, but because of the foolish policy of the first high school. The first high school hopes to maintain its own bloodline, which leads to the first grade middle school students being able to lower their scores and pay the school selection fee to be admitted to the first high school first.
However, students from Dude Middle School who were admitted to the No. 1 Middle School entirely on their own have a tendency to look down on the students from the first grade of middle school.
This trend is getting stronger and stronger. Even after the military training incident, some people in the second and third year of high school spread the word that the students from their Dude Private Middle School are still the best...
In fact, this situation still makes many teachers in No. 1 High School depressed.
After working so hard to train students, these students turned out to be unteachable. They believed from the bottom of their hearts that it was Dude Private Middle School that made them successful. This trend has continued from the second and third year students to the new first year students.
Principal Ma Weiguo is actually a little worried. Dude Private Middle School has been brainwashing students for a long time, and they have been promoting that students from Dude are the souls that support the admission rate of No. 1 High School... Dude Middle School has long planned to set up a high school department. Maybe one day when the time is right, Dude will set up a high school. Then, the excellent students of No. 1 High School will most likely be plundered by them after their continuous hype.
Need to be vigilant...
