July 30th.
The "Unkai Pavilion" in the medium-sized banquet hall on the 22nd floor of the Nagoya Grand Hotel has gathered more than 100 people since 8:30 in the morning.From nine o'clock, the number gradually increased again.
The hotel made an appointment for one hundred people to occupy a certain room in "Yunhaixuan".But they expected that they would not be able to accommodate the incoming guests anyway, so they hastily opened the "Rilun Xuan" next door.By ten o'clock, about two hundred journalists had crowded both rooms.
Today is the day when the Shibuya technicians of "Hoshidenken" will make the news for the first time to publicly test the miniature pocket color TV.
A room full of journalists and professionals waited with bated breath for the moment of public testing.
"What about a miniature pocket color TV, will it really be manufactured successfully?"
"If the trial production is really successful, it can really be said that after the invention of the crystal vacuum tube micro-television, the electronics industry has caused the third revolution."
"In a word, this is invented by Japan's Edison-Shibuya engineers, and the entire technical force of 'Star Denken' has gone all out to invent it successfully. It can't be fake!"
"However, what are those ugly rumors these days? People say that the structure of a color TV is much more complicated than that of a black and white TV. It is simply impossible to reduce it to a miniature and pocket-sized color TV with new electronic technology. .Isn’t that just staring and bluffing?”
"Yeah, according to some people's news, they are laughing at this as a bluff to children."
"The stock of 'Star Electric Research', which has been rising in a straight line by fully automated washing machines and permanent resistance, has now fallen in price. From the past business conditions of 'Star Electric Research', people can see that there are unfavorable factors affecting the stock price, and they are hesitating. before."
"If it's true, the price will go up in one go; if it's false, it will collapse all at once!"
"Aren't there many shareholders in this room?"
"In any case, we will find out in another thirty minutes."
The reporters chatted enthusiastically while waiting for the time, and they were getting impatient.
At this time, the following conversation took place at the Iguchi Securities Company in Osaka.
"Have the two securities companies, Murata and Guanye, made arrangements?"
"Yes, everything was done as ordered."
"The stock price of 'Xingdian Research' will be stable within four days from today. If it waits for a few more days, it may depreciate. However, the wait cannot exceed four days. Because when the next test is successful, the stock will go down. On the contrary, it suddenly skyrocketed. As long as the price drops below 100 yuan, buy it in one go. Do you hear me? Don’t let go of even a single stock. Take this opportunity to sell all the outstanding stocks of "Xingdianyan" Got it."
This is Zilang Shanlu giving instructions to his subordinates.
If there is a certain company, whenever there are favorable or unfavorable factors in the stock, the stock will skyrocket or plummet, and the taste of short buying and short selling regardless of interest rate will become stronger, and the market will fluctuate greatly.
In order to prevent such fluctuations, a limit is placed on the stock price of the day, which is called limit fluctuation.The range of this price fluctuation is about 50 yuan when it is less than 200 yuan, and about 80 yuan when it is 200 to 500 yuan. The current price of 'Xingdianyan' stock is 342 yuan. Therefore, as long as it does not fall to 200 yuan, the price difference will exceed 80 yuan a day.It is expected that the price will drop below 100 yuan on the fourth day, and on that day, it will be snapped up vigorously.The battle plan, that's it.
In the meantime, Shibuya's success in another experiment must be prevented under any circumstances.The war will be won through the seamless cooperation of the stock exchange and the new experiment to sabotage Shibuya.
However, it is absolutely confidential that it is Hanaoka of "Kyoden" who is hoarding stocks.Even according to the "Monopoly Prohibition Law", snapping up shares of rival companies is not allowed.Jingkou Securities Co., Ltd. is the guarantee unit of "Xiedian" company.If Jingguchi took the lead in snapping up, it would be immediately discovered that it had something to do with "Xiedian".Therefore, the friendly units of Iguchi Securities Co., Ltd., Kanno Securities Co., Ltd. in Osaka and Murata Securities Co., Ltd. in Tokyo, were used to buy them.
These two companies also have dealings with other securities companies with large accounts.Let these two companies take the lead, so that it will not be easy to be found out that the line from Jingguchi Securities Company to "Xiedian" is involved.
Thus, combat preparations were over, and all that was left was to wait for Shibuya's open trials to fail.
Ten o'clock in the morning is the appointed time.Accompanied by Xingchuan Manager, Takai Deputy Manager, Nagasaki Director and other leaders of "Xingdianken", the chief engineer of Shibuya stepped into "Yunhaixuan" on time.Then came the technicians from "Xingdianyan". The partition walls of "Yunhai Pavilion" and "Rilun Pavilion" have been demolished, and the rooms are crowded with people from all walks of life.Just when the crowd was full of voices, suddenly, it became silent.
Manager Xingchuan stepped onto the podium in the center of the room:
"Everyone! Thank you very much for your presence today. Next, we will publicly perform the MLT-3 pocket miniature color TV invented by our company. First, please allow Shibuya Chief Technician to give a brief explanation of the new product."
Following Manager Hoshikawa's speech, Shibuya stood up, and there was a wave of whispers in the room.
"He is the so-called Edison of Japan..."
"He is Shibuya!"
"He is the pillar of 'Xingdianyan'."
"How young!"
"I don't see him being such a great character."
People who met Shibuya for the first time seemed surprised that he was so young.
As soon as Shibuya opened his mouth, the whispering quieted down.
"I'm Shibuya. Please allow me to introduce the performance of the machine. The basic principle of color TV is the same as that of black and white TV in the past. However, there are various difficulties in the principle of structure. The object is decomposed into three primary colors of red, yellow and blue, and three image signals are made by three electron guns, which are sent to the three-color image receiving tube through three conduits. At this time, the three primary colors are superimposed together according to the optical principle, which is the color The principle of a TV. Therefore, its structure is three times that of a black and white TV. Therefore, usually a color TV tends to be taller in shape. As for making a miniature pocket body, it was almost asserted that it was impossible in the past.
"We have always considered whether it is possible to integrate the three-color image receiving tubes of the three electron guns into one tube.
"Our engineers and technicians started research based on this revelation. Its product is the MLT-3 model that is publicly tested today. Because it is still in the trial production stage, there are many areas for technical improvement. However, it is expected that it will be available within this year at the latest. Putting it into mass production. Then, let’s start the experiment.”
There was warm applause from the audience. The fate of "Star Denken", no, the third revolution of the Japanese electronics industry is about to unveil.
All the public telephones on the 24th floor of the hotel are under the control of journalists and professionals.They chatted into the microphone, and only waited for the test results to be published before reporting to the department.Therefore, they all anxiously waited for this moment.
Especially for securities companies, regardless of the success or failure of the experiment, the speed of communication is related to the huge amount of profit and loss.If you succeed, you will swallow, if you fail, you will vomit.Minutes too late and the interests of astronomical figures would be lost.
The thieves and thieves also bribed the servants of the hotel and controlled the business phone.
Shibuya Chief Technician gave Tachibana a wink.
In the center of "Yunhaixuan" there is a conference table with a small paulownia box on it.Tachibana took out the contents of the box with slightly trembling hands. This is the MLT-3 miniature pocket color TV set that attracted worldwide attention.Immediately, more than two hundred pairs of eyes full of hope and curiosity focused on the object under Tachibana's hands.At first glance, it is not surprising, it is just a small iron box.But the image tube fluorescent screen in front of the small box, which is as big as a palm, seems to be showing a strange brilliance.
Tachibana connected the pull cord to the power source, and then turned on the button.All the people in the audience were extremely silent for an instant, as if they had stopped breathing, and even the sound of someone swallowing saliva was very loud.
...the image appearing on the fluorescent screen moves up and down.Technician Tachibana hastily adjusted the vertical knob, and adjusted the brightness and contrast... The image was finally complete, black and white.
Tachibana immediately changed the channel.
It seems to be a black and white film.Another channel is still black and white.Follow the same order.Tachibana accelerated the speed of adjusting the channel.So, Kaden Kaden, there was a harsh sound when the channel was selected.Then it went back to the original channel.
"Strange!" Tachibana almost said it, shaking her head.However, it was not a questioning face.He thought to himself, maybe this time is full of black and white programs.
However, this would be too careless.Why choose black-and-white program time for the public experiment of color TV?
Tachibana twisted the FM button again, but the result was the same.Gradually I was amazed.As if asking for help, he glanced at Shibuya.However, Shibuya couldn't figure out what was going on.The schedule for carrying out the test is determined by the business planning office of "Star Denken".Shibuya never imagined that the public experiment of color TV would be arranged for him in the broadcast time of all black-and-white films.
This program seems to be aimed at women's seminars, and what appears on the screen is: women are gorgeously dressed, talking and laughing.
Shibuya hated the carefree smiling faces of those women.At this time, some insiders chirped and chirped.However, no one wants to call the report yet.
"Bring the TV program list, hurry up!" Deputy Manager Gao Jing whispered to the secretary from the side.He, too, thought the turnaround was due to poor planning.
Japan's Edison-Shibuya Natsuo led the engineering and technical personnel of "Xingdian Research" praised by the world, and invented the MLT-3 TV set, which is absolutely unequivocal.Not only him, but the relevant personnel of "Xingdian Research" have absolute trust in Shibuya.So, despite the mishap, it was pretty cool by comparison.
Sadly, the secretary didn't have to go out.
As soon as he set off according to the order of the deputy manager, a few large characters were clearly displayed on the subtitles in the lower corner of the screen: "Color TV program time".
In an instant, the entire team of "Xingdianyan" was pale.Just as he was so surprised that there was no sound, suddenly, the unresolved chaos replaced the suffocating tension.
"It's a liar!"
"Call quickly!"
"Sell it, sell it, sell it all!"
People scrambled to the door, like a flood breaking through a dam. More than two hundred people raced against time to rush out and hang up the phone first.At most three or four people would be blocked, but people flocked to the door without thinking.
You push, I push, he bumps, in order to rush out of the two-meter-wide pass, even the trams during commuting hours have never been so crowded.Just like the contradictions and struggles in capitalist society, people are fighting fiercely to resolve this battle.
The servants at the door were so unlucky that they were knocked down from time to time, so that the lemon juice and Sudanese cocoa on the plate were enough for the carpet to drink, and some juice was poured on the soles of the guests' shoes. Son.
It wasn't just the servants who were kicked down.The MLT-3 model placed on the central desk was also involved in this disaster.Before Shibuya and Tachibana had time to defend, the miniature pocket color TV was thrown to the floor together with the desk, and was trampled by ruthless muddy feet.
What a poor little thing!Like a football, it has become a plaything under people's feet. You kick me, curl up, and turn around.Among the crowd, some people seemed to have relieved their hatred and deliberately stepped on their feet.In the process of it rotating between the feet, Natsuo Shibuya worked hard, and the only MLT-3 that "Star Denken" was looking forward to turned into a pitiful piece of scrap iron.
The antenna was broken, the picture tube was shattered, and the internal device was exposed from the breach, like an animal carcass dripping out of its internal organs.
"What's going on here?" Manager Xingchuan's vacant voice to himself pierced through the boiling sound waves, stinging Shibuya's eardrum.
However, at this time, Shibuya has nothing to do but stand blankly and wait for the crowd to ebb!
The stock price of "Xingdianyan" continued to reach 342 yuan.However, due to the rush to sell, it fell to the lowest price that day.
At this time, the vicious rumors that Shunichiro Hanaoka once spread about "Star Denken" obviously worked.Ordinary investors don't believe that bad materials will appear when the company's epoch-making product group is in the ascendant. They are suspicious, and when they hear the news of fake miniature pocket color TV sets, they can't support it immediately and collapsed.
If you don't sell it immediately, you will lose the price.Sell it, sell it, the cries for selling became a prairie fire.The fire was lit on the outstanding stock.But it has also spread to the fixed shares of the veterans since the establishment of "Xingdianyan".
The scene created by "Xingdianyan" is like a flood rushing over the sand, and the castle collapsed.
In the first half of the exchange, the stock of "Xingdianyan" fell to 40 yuan, and it continued to sell in the second half, and finally fell to the limit.
While secretly delighted, the people who listened to the news were Hanaoka Shunichiro and Yamaji Shiro.
