Chapter 218: It's better to rent the video tape(1/2)
"Brother Guo, how much does it cost to buy a box of these video tapes, and how much does it cost to rent?" He could only ask him humbly.
Guo Guangchang told him the truth.
"Going back and forth, even if you rent it, it will cost 10 yuan per box. If you need it, I will give you 5 yuan per box for ten days."
When the cost is spread out, it's much less.
"No problem." Pan Dazhang asked him to find all the video tapes that he had played. There were fifty boxes in total.
If you spend money to buy it now, obviously the investment is still a bit high.
This is the beginning stage, and there won't be many families in the county who buy video cameras. Otherwise, they will be like the owner of a video rental company in Guangzhou who will rent out the video tapes he has played.
If you charge 2 yuan per box a day, you can recover the cost in more than a month.
The profits of this business are relatively high.
"Brother Guo, do you usually have other people come to ask you if you want to rent video tapes?" he asked tentatively.
"Why not? Almost every day, people come and ask, renting it home to watch for themselves. Those are from well-off families and have bought video cameras at home. How can I rent it to them?" Guo Guangchang said firmly.
Pan Dazhang saw that his office was more than ten square meters, so it would be a good place to rent out video tapes.
"Brother Guo, why can't you get along with money? This is also a business. Think about it, it costs 80 yuan to buy a box of video tapes. If you buy more, you can probably negotiate the price. After you finish playing in the video room, you can
If you rent it out for RMB a day, the cost will be recouped in more than a month. If you have time, go to the following ten
Running around eight counties, it is estimated that many of the counties below have opened video studios. A video studio has at least five video tapes a day. Think about how big a business it is. I want to study now, otherwise I would come to Ganga
If you open a video rental store in the state, you will definitely make no less money than if you open a video parlor."
Guo Guangchang thought for a moment, slapped his thigh fiercely, and shouted loudly: "Yeah, why didn't I think of this? Brother Da Zhang, your brain is so useful. Every time I chat with you, I benefit a lot.
Qian. I have decided to open this video rental store. I will use this office of more than ten square meters to run it and make some shelves. I will go to Guangzhou every few days to buy a batch of new videos and bring them back.
"
In fact, thirty or forty boxes of video tapes can be stored for a month without any problem.
Can be played repeatedly.
Pan Dazhang spent two hundred and fifty yuan to rent fifty boxes of videotapes from him.
"Brother Guo, I have an idea, that is, your place is also close to the bus station. Can I designate a shuttle bus from Yudu to Gangzhou, and let the driver bring down the video tape that I have finished playing? Then you can call someone
Send him the same videotape and ask him to take it back to Governor Yu. I’ll give the money to the driver, do you think it’s okay?”
Guo Guangchang's eyes lit up: "This method will work. Xiao Pan is really smart and can think of any method. That's it."
If you give the driver some money, even if you ask him to carry the videotape over here, it won't take much time.
"Brother Guo, I have everything ready now, except for a video camera. Do you know any electrical repair shop that sells second-hand video cameras?"
He has been in Gangzhou for a long time and should be more familiar with the place.
"I had to ask and I found out that my video camera was also second-hand and cost more than a thousand. I bought it from the electrical repair shop on Wangjiangting Road."
Guo Guangchang told him the addresses of all electrical appliance repair shops in Gangzhou City.
"You'd better ride a bicycle. Do you know how to ride a motorcycle? If so, I can lend you this motorcycle to ride on?"
Pan Dazhang naturally knows how to ride a motorcycle. In his previous life, he drove all types of cars.
In 1983, there was no such thing as a motorcycle driver's license. As long as you could drive on the road, no one would care about you.
"Thank you, Brother Guo. I can drive a car, not to mention a motorcycle."
Guo Guangchang lent him his motorcycle.
Wen Xiaoqin and Wen Xiaoqin were really excited to watch in the video room, and they looked reluctant when Pan Dazhang called them out.
What is being shown in the video room is a Hong Kong martial arts film "Blood Drop".
The exciting plot and shocking martial arts action will make people's hearts beat.
"Cousin, monitor, can you leave after watching this movie?" Wen Xiaoqin said, shaking his arm.
"It's getting late. I'm going back. Do you have anything else to do tomorrow morning?"
Pan Dazhang looked at the time and it was already eleven o'clock.
Besides, if you go back to the guest house late at night, the old gatekeeper will interrogate you for a long time.
Pan Dazhang simply rode Guo Guangchang's motorcycle to the guest house.
Because Guo Guangchang said: "You can ride the motorcycle, I will get up late in the morning."
The two also talked about Du Shanwen.
"Oh, I'm sorry for Shanwen. I happened to go to Guangzhou on the day when his mother was sick and told her to go home. My partner Lai Yunyun is stingy in doing things and doesn't care about the occasion when speaking. I told her about it after I got home. Collected a few days ago
When I received his letter, he said that he wanted to stay in Yudu County to find work so that he could take care of his sick mother. I also expressed my understanding."
Guo Guangchang also suggested: "Dazhang, you and Shanwen are classmates and friends. You need someone like him to open a video studio. You can ask him to help you. In Yudu County, as long as we talk about our senior brothers
, no one dares to bully you."
It was with Du Shanwen back that Pan Dazhang officially decided to open a video studio.
He told Guo Guangchang all the details.
There is nothing worth hiding about this matter.
Guo Guangchang also took out two hundred yuan from his pocket, handed it to Pan Dazhang, and asked him to give it to Du Shanwen.
"Tell him that if I'm sick, I must send her to the doctor. Even if I need surgery, I can't give up. If you don't have money, you can come to me directly."
Pan took his money early.
He also hopes that the relationship between their senior brothers will remain friendly.
Several people said goodbye to Guo Guangchang.
"Dazhang, can you ride a motorcycle?" Li Weiguo and Wen Xiaoqin both thought it was incredible.
"Yes, now there is a car for me to drive, and I can do it."
He also knew that even if he could drive a small car, he did not have a small car driver's license at this time, and he would be punished if caught driving on the road by the traffic department.
Motorcycles are different.
It was only in 1984 that the motorcycle license test began to be required.
In the past, small car driver's licenses were sent to employees by their units for training, and after passing the exam, they were issued a small car driver's license.
"Is it true? Then start your motorcycle and take us back?" Wen Xiaoqin urged him excitedly.
"But how to ride this?" Pan Dazhang was a little embarrassed.
"You are so stupid. You can ride three people on a bicycle, but not a motorcycle?"
She took the initiative to sit in the front.
Pan Dazhang hugged her.
Li Weiguo sat in the back seat.
"I am a 500-watt light bulb to light your way forward," he said jokingly.
Pan Dazhang started the motorcycle, released the clutch, refueled, and started smoothly, all at once.
His movements are as skillful as those of an experienced driver.
It drives smoothly and smoothly.
"Yes, he is really an experienced driver." Li Weiguo praised repeatedly.
"When did you start learning?" Wen Xiaoqin asked softly.
“You don’t need to learn, you’ll be born with it.”
When you reach a certain age, you naturally become a driver.
When we arrived at the guest house, the doorman Lao Xie also smiled and said, "Xiao Pan is good. He bought a motorcycle. Are you going to ride it back to Yudu tomorrow?"
"I borrowed it from a friend to run some errands tomorrow."
He locked his motorcycle in the bike shed.
When he got up in the morning, Li Weiguo said, "Either I go back to Governor Yu first."
His purpose is to familiarize himself with the department store where he purchases goods.
It was not very convenient for three people to travel together now, so he proposed to go back first.
"I took a bus to Fuqian Town and then walked back to Yuezhou Village. I didn't go home for two weeks."
After breakfast, Pan Dazhang took him to the bus station on his motorcycle.
He was originally asked to take the goods back, but considering that he had to walk five kilometers back to the village by car to get to Fuqian Town, it was very inconvenient to carry them.
There were risks, so I gave up the idea.
According to the address of the electrical repair shop provided by Guo Guangchang, there is one near the bus station.
