However, the time cost must also be considered. Motorola is still researching Xing Baohua's analog-to-digital conversion patent; circumventing this patent would take three years or more. Time and materials are the key costs.

After careful consideration, Xing Baohua was told that the $500,000 plus two-way paging technology was limited to use and sale in the Chinese region.

And it also comes with an additional condition: the digital baseband, as Xing Baohua mentioned, will be prioritized for motorcycles.

Xing Baohua was naturally unwilling and said, "Hey, Henry, these are two different businesses, we can't tie them together."

“Xing, I just want to get priority. You offer one hundred million US dollars. Only if we can’t afford it can others come and buy it,” Henry explained.

"Sorry, but I really dislike this kind of bundling. In China, business is always straightforward. If you like my digital baseband, we can start new negotiations. Please don't interfere with the previous deal, okay?"

Faced with Xing Baohua's tough stance, Henry had no choice but to give up.

The first motorcycle deal was successfully completed.

I hung up the phone, lit a cigarette, and tried to calm my excitement.

Half a million US dollars may seem like a small amount, but the real bulk of the money comes from the two-way paging patent.

It's limited to domestic production and sales. Xing Baohua couldn't help but laugh. Once it's produced, it won't be able to be contained. The term "parallel import" will appear much sooner than expected.

Around 10:30, George called Xing Baohua to ask about the situation.

Xing Baohua told him that the negotiations with the motorcycle company had been successful and that George should sign the contract on his behalf.

As for receiving the $500,000, we'll put $100,000 in the company account first, split the rest equally, and also bring his share of the payment over.

Regarding the patent matter, Xing Baohua hoped that one of George's people would come over, deliver the patent, and take back some materials to apply for the patent.

George said he would come in person after the contract was signed.

A series of moves showed George and his team that money was still easy to make. A few words, some running around, a few phone calls, and it was done. Problem solved!

It's easier than working on construction projects outside the office, and most importantly, it's not tiring.

After hanging up the phone, Xing Baohua still wanted to have a drink to celebrate.

After searching around, there was no wine or food available.

I had no choice but to lie down and sleep. I have to record songs tomorrow, and there are even busier days to come.

Lin Daorong has been researching audio recording in sound card mode for some time now.

This simulated audio channel improves the recording quality.

At least the noise level has been reduced to a minimum.

The machine makes a rotating sound, which can be heard if you listen carefully. However, through simulated sound channels, the human ear cannot hear it unless detected by a machine.

With the tuning keys in place, it looks just like a professional sound engineer.

Xing Baohua arrived with a large group of people, all carrying their equipment. Two tricycles weren't enough; they had to make two trips.

Discuss with Lin Daorong about how to proceed.

Since the studio is small, let's record the accompaniment first.

In the afternoon, Lin Daorong wiped the sweat from his brow and managed to record the accompaniment for "Dream Chaser".

Being a sound engineer is tough; you're exhausted, drenched in sweat, and your shirt is soaked through.

Even Xing Baohua wanted to add a fan after seeing it.

The accompaniment was ready, and Zou Wenjuan recorded the lyrics. Fortunately, she was good, and it only took three takes.

Lin Daorong is using a computer to synthesize audio tracks for output recording.

Zou Wenjuan's first single has been recorded. Unfortunately, it can only be listened to and cannot be released to the market.

When listened to on the device, the fidelity is superb thanks to the high-end audio system designed by Xing Baohua.

Zou Wenjuan couldn't believe that this was the sound she had recorded.

After the intro, her singing sounded somewhat ethereal. At this point, the accompaniment was low, while her vocals were high.

This creates a striking contrast. This effect was achieved by recording in a computer-simulated surround mode.

It was almost time, so Xing Baohua told everyone to go back and rest early, and that they would go there to practice and record the next day.

Except for leaving the drum, take everything else back.

Xing Baohua took the two girls in his tricycle and rode back along the main street.

On the way, Su Ya asked Xing Baohua to sing.

Xing Baohua initially didn't want to sing, but under Su Ya's urging, she had no choice but to sing two lines:

"Girl, girl, you're so beautiful!"

Police officer, police officer, you're holding a gun.

You said you wanted a car, you said you wanted a villa

I can neither steal nor rob

All I have is a creaky bed.

"Sigh! You're being inappropriate again?" Zou Wenjuan said to Su Ya after hearing the lyrics of the song.

"I think it's good, at least it's the truth."

“?” Zou Wenjuan was taken aback.

"He ran his own factory without stealing or robbing; even the bed in his office creaks," Su Ya explained.

Zou Wenjuan then said to Su Ya, "Are you sure the lyrics mean this, especially the girl and the bed, and the creaking sound?"

It seems that people who haven't experienced living in a dormitory don't understand anything.

As for Xing Baohua's later lyrics about holding a baby, Zou Wenjuan complained even more.

The bed creaked until it stopped, and then the baby was born.
