My 1979

Without the use of electronic color separation machines or computer fonts, it would definitely be more monotonous.

"Isn't our school's printing shop using computers? Why is it still like this?"

It would be great if I could use a computer for typesetting.

It is much more convenient to create a font library with a computer than to use manual phototypesetting. The manual phototypesetting machine is a first-generation machine, while the computer laser phototypesetting machine developed by researchers headed by Professor Wang Xuan is a fourth-generation machine. The gap here is not as big as usual. .

Mu Yan said, "I also want to use the school's Founder system for typesetting, but it is full of tasks. If I have to queue up, it will probably take next year. I have no choice but to go to a private printing factory in the western suburbs. This kind of light paper is also It’s so expensive, seven to eight thousand one ton.”

Li He was speechless and choked. The sudden blow almost hit his waist. He thought that everything was ready and all he needed was the east wind, so he ignored the domestic printing level and asked Mu Yan to start printing directly.

Do you really want to build a printing factory yourself?

But the construction of a printing plant is not that difficult.

If you don't build your own printing factory, teaching assistants like him can definitely be sold now. Everyone is used to it anyway, and no one will scold you for bad printing. But in the long run, there is no way to achieve explosive growth. Growth is difficult to achieve in a big way.

Printing equipment is not difficult to obtain. Printing machines, paper cutters, and plate makers can all be solved with money, and auxiliary equipment such as varnishing, die-cutting, and anodized aluminum will not be a problem either. But what about typesetting technology?

Currently, there are only a few companies with first-class printing and typesetting technology.

He thought of Liu Lenovo, why not try to ask?

"How many have we printed?"

Meng Jianguo said from the side, "One hundred thousand copies, many schools have already remitted the order money and are waiting for us to ship them."

He was a little excited. It was worth working for several months. This was an income of hundreds of thousands.

Mu Yan said, "Many teachers said that the compilation was good, but the supply simply exceeded the demand. We tried it in the Affiliated Middle School, and the students responded well."

Li He didn't want to dampen their enthusiasm, "You two are in class and delivering goods, are you too busy?"

Meng Jianguo said, "The printing factory, the post office, and the school are all running in three directions. As long as you have money, the hard work is worth it."

Li He said with a smile, "You two are asking for this trouble. You don't know how to hire people. How much worry can this save? You two don't fill in the invoice yourself, right?"

Meng Jianguo and Mu Yan looked at each other, then nodded affirmatively.

Li He said, "The nerds are talking about you two. Go to the student union and ask if there are any students who are willing to work-study and give you some help."

Mu Yancai smiled awkwardly, "I forgot about this."

Li He went to find Liu Lenovo to get a clue about the printing factory first.

Liu Lenovo has led New Computer Company to sell Hanka like hot cakes since last year, and has made at least tens of millions of profits. Therefore, his pride has greatly increased, and his office has been replaced by a two-story building.

Moreover, Hong Kong investors do not ask for dividends. They have large amounts of cash in their hands and always have the urge to do something big.

Liu Lenovo said, "There will definitely be no problem with this. We will provide technical support. Although the patent belongs to Xinhua Printing Factory, we can refer to their technology."

Li He smiled. Damn it, the copycats were so high-sounding, but as long as the copycats were in his interests, he didn't have such a strong sense of morality. The situation forced him to come and spend money to ask for technical authorization, and others didn't. I don’t necessarily blame him, but I think his brain is being squeezed.

"I will leave all the computer procurement and typesetting system matters to you, and I will arrange for someone to contact you."

Coming out of Liu Lenovo's office, Li He fell into another trouble.

He couldn't find anyone who could be responsible for contacting Liu Lenovo, or he couldn't find anyone who could help him set up a printing shop. You should know that he didn't have a younger brother with a junior high school education or above.

Printing is a relatively technical thing, but it would be difficult to do it if you have never been in this industry or don't understand some printing techniques. He couldn't do it himself even if he wanted to, and he didn't understand printing.

Or buy it?

This is the best solution he can think of at the moment.

He asked Mu Yan, "How big is the private printing house you are looking for?"

"It's just a few machines, a couple as bosses, and two workers."

Li He said, "What do you think of us buying it?"

Mu Yan said, "Buy it? Do you know how much it will cost, and the business is very good, so it is unlikely to sell."

Li He said, "Let's go and have a look."

Seeing that Li He was so stubborn, Mu Yan agreed, got on the back of Li He's motorcycle and guided him towards the western suburbs.

The western part of the western suburbs belongs to the Taihang Mountains, and the north and northeast are Jundu Mountains and belong to the Yanshan Mountains. As the ancients said, "The land of Youzhou is surrounded by the sea on the left, Taihang on the right, Juyong on the north, and Heji on the south. It is a land of abundance."

There are real suburbs along the way, a large area of ​​green farms, and occasionally some sections can be said to be desolate.

Li He said, "You and Lao Meng are really good at finding places, why are you in this nook and cranny?"

Mu Yan said, "It's right in front. It's not too far. This was introduced by an acquaintance."

Li He arrived at the place and parked his motorcycle nearby.

Mu Yan led the way, pointing to a row of asbestos-tiled houses and said, "That one is a printing factory, the one next to it is a machine repair shop, and the other one is a speculator."

Li He shrugged his nose and smelled the smell of butter.

Before entering the printing factory, I heard a loud noise, buzzing and banging.

The boss was tall and thin. He immediately shook hands with Mu Yan cordially when he saw him. When Mu Yan introduced Li He, he kindly handed over cigarettes and made tea.

Li He said, "Boss Fang, can you take us for a ride?".

Boss Fang said, "Let's go, if you don't mind, let's take a look."

Li He turned around and found that they were still using old-fashioned letterpress printing. There were only a few reliable machines. He glanced at the finished products piled in the corner. Just by looking at the cover, he knew it was a martial arts book. These pirated books were all Done?

"Boss Fang, your business is really big."

Boss Fang said, "Even though we are a small workshop, we use all new equipment and adopt a powder-free corrosion-making copper-zinc plate making process."

Li He saw his lips moving up and down.

After waiting silently for three or four minutes, I saw that he was still talking non-stop. He quickly interrupted, "This is obviously a plastic film rotogravure printing machine."

Boss Fang smiled awkwardly, knowing that he had met someone knowledgeable.

"Conditions are limited, conditions are limited."

Li He smiled and said, "Boss Fang, let me get straight to the point, have you ever considered selling your printing factory?"

"What do you mean?" Boss Fang took out a cigarette from the cigarette case, knocked the filter tip down on the cover of the machine twice, and lit it.
