In 1978, he bought a television set; watched a movie, Zorro, The Hunt (097 autobiographical novel

The Spring Festival of 1978 came, after my mother died, the family was my wife Wu Jie in charge, she was not in charge of money, it was all the housework in the family that she did. Although my family is a vegetable team farmer' household registration, I have the skills to make money, have a fixed job, and the living conditions are much better than those of my neighbors.

After entering the twenty-third day of the lunar month, his wife Wu Jie began to purchase New Year goods. In the morning, before dawn, my second sister and little sister got up, and they had to follow their sister-in-law to the street to buy New Year goods. After eating in the morning, they go to the door of the store to queue, the people are usually reluctant to spend money, until the New Year, only to take the ticket to buy some good things.

My second sister and little sister came to the queue in advance, and seeing that there were many people in line, they were so angry that they stomped their feet. Like snails, the line moved forward little by little, and waited in line for more than two hours. The second sister asked my little sister to run home to call my sister-in-law, Wu Jie took the money and ticket to buy pork, chickens, and fish, noodles, peanuts, melon seeds and fruit candy. My little sister looks forward to the New Year every day, when there is a shortage of supplies, everything is supplied by ticket, and only in the New Year can I change into a new dress and eat a few delicious meals.

By 1978, my dad was 65 years old. Very few people lived past the age of 70, and in recent years my dad has been sick and in poor health. After my mother died, my father didn't care about anything at home, he held my daughter every day, and in the winter, he kicked my daughter in the big cotton jacket. My daughter is two years old! Calling Grandpa every day, my dad was very happy. My father preferred sons to daughters, expecting his son Wu Jie to give birth to a boy, and his wife Wu Jie was pregnant again! It was born at the end of the year.

My dad said:

"I'm going to have a boy this time."

I also hope that my wife Wu Jie will have a boy, and I prefer to watch movies. This year, he starred in an Italian film "Zorro", which was the first Western film to introduce Chinese mainland since the end of the Cultural Revolution. At that time, young people went to see this movie, and nine movie theaters were staged four-five times a day, and some people watched it several times. The emergence of this kind of Western chivalry has opened the eyes of the Chinese people, and Zorro, played by the famous actor Alandron, is almost a household name.

Zorro punishes evil and promotes good, which is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. He wore a cloak, a mask, a long whip, and a fast horse, which made the eyes of hundreds of millions of viewers light up. The dubbing by Shanghai Studio makes Zorro's image icing on the cake and more vivid. In 1978, a Japanese movie was also popular, the name of the movie was "The Hunt", when the film was staged on Nine Channel, men, women and children rushed to watch, which was the focus of discussion in the streets and alleys at that time. In the film, the scene of Du qiu and Mayumi galloping on horseback in the wilderness, and the music "La la la" are even more familiar.

Many people followed Duchu's example, wearing trench coats like his, and erecting collars when it was not windy. Masayuki and Yokoji became synonymous with praising a beautiful woman and cursing a scoundrel.

Many people curse and say:

"Look at you look like a yokozuna Keiji."

There are a few lines in the movie:

"You jumped, didn't Zhou Cang jump down?" Didn't TangTa jump down too? You're fucking jumping! ”

"You see, what a blue sky, go over and you can melt in this blue sky. Keep walking, don't look to either side. ”

"Jump off here! You're jumping! Okay, so there's a resolution, right? How are you afraid? How did your legs shake? ”

Many people imitate these lines when they talk and chat, or when they joke. I watched many other films this year, but the ones that impressed me the most were the two foreign films "Zorro" and "The Hunt". My brother also loves to watch these two movies, and when he is with me, my brother often describes the storylines of these two movies.

At this time, I was not short of money, there were bicycles, sewing machines, radios, recorders, cameras, and my wife Wu Jie and I had watches. I wanted to buy a TV set, and I heard that the tailor Old Xu Tou'er bought a TV set, and I also wanted to buy one, but there was no one for sale in the store of nine sets. Several shops in Jiutai County did not sell television sets, and one Sunday, I asked Yuanyuan's brother to accompany me to Changchun.

Yuanyuan's eldest brother, Yuanhua, works in Jiutai Brewery, and from childhood to adulthood, our relationship is very good. I took the money and Yuanhua to the train from the ninth station, and asked him to follow me to Changchun to buy a TV set, and I was ready to buy a PANDA brand TV set. The TV set bought by Xu Tailor's family is the Panda brand, and in our resident group, only his family has bought a new TV set.

Yuanhua accompanied me to Changchun, this year I was 26 years old, Yuanhua was 24 years old, he was taller than me, and he also had strength. The train ticket from Jiutai to Changchun, one person for one yuan, after getting off the train in Changchun, we walked to the Changchun Five Shops. At that time, Wudian was the largest store in Changchun, and the location of the store was at the intersection of Chongqing.

When passing by Victory Park, we also went inside to play for a while and watched the little monkeys at Monkey Mountain. When I walked to the five shops, it was around 11 o'clock in the morning, there were many people in the shops, and Changchun was the capital city of the province. Although it was a big city and a big store, there was no elevator in the store at that time, so we searched around and found a counter selling TELEVISION sets.

At that time, television sets were still in short supply, and there were no Panda tv sets at all on the counter. This brand of TV has long been sold out, and I saw that there was only one Nanjing-made Qingsong brand TV on the counter. This TV was a 12-inch black-and-white TV, the outer shell was made of wood, and there was no other TV set. The wooden shell of this television set also has a crack, which is a defective product.

I didn't want to come in vain, I said to the salesman:

"Hello! How much does this TV cost? ”

"420 yuan." He said.

"You turn the TV on and I'll take a look, okay?" I say.

The salesman turned on the switch of the TV, and the TV displayed the image. This TV set is just a little cracked in the shell, and it does not affect the fluorescent screen broadcast TV content, and the parts in the TV set are not broken.

I said to the salesman:

"You invoice me."

Yuanhua saw that I really wanted to buy it, so he said to me:

"Second brother, we can't afford to buy a broken TV set."

I said to him:

"It's just that the shell of the TV is a little broken, it doesn't affect watching TV, and the parts inside are not broken, so when I get home, I get some water glue and glue it."

The waiter opened the ticket! He clipped the ticket to a clip, and then pushed the clip with a slide on the wire forward, and the TV bill was clipped to the clip and scratched to the place where the payment was received.

At that time, in the big stores, in order to avoid the bills issued being changed, the wire was tied to the various counters of the store, and there were many clips on them, and the waiter put the opened bills on the clips, and then drew the clips to the store's cash office. There were such cases at that time, when the waiter at the counter issued a ticket and the criminal stamped a fake seal that he had engraved privately. The waiter saw that it was stamped with an official seal, thought that the collection office had received money, and handed the goods to this person.

Now the clerk on the counter issued the bill, the customer who buys the goods can not touch, after the collection office receives the money, stamped the official seal, and then the bill is passed along the wire with a clip, the waiter reads it, and then gives the goods to the person who buys the goods, so as to avoid bad people cheating the goods. It was a 12-inch black-and-white TV set, Yuanhua held it with both hands, and the two of us walked out of the Changchun Wu Store, and at a nearby food stall, we ate a light meal. Then come to the train station to catch the train and return to Jiutai in the afternoon.

When I got home, I climbed into the room and installed an antenna, and after I turned on the power, I turned on the switch of the TV set, and the TV set "rustled". The image on the screen dangled and could not be seen clearly, and Yuanhua climbed onto the roof again, turned the antenna with his hand, and found the best position, and the TV set displayed the image.
