In the late 1970s, one day my brother's best classmate Yu came, carrying a huge portable radio in his hand. After he put the radio on the square table opposite the door, he sat on the small bed next to the square table and chatted with my parents. Some members of the family talked to Yu, and others talked to each other. Suddenly, the "radio" came out with the voice of our family just talking, which shocked the whole family! It turns out that what Yu is holding is a tape recorder! Before this, we didn’t even know there was a tape recorder, let alone hear our own voices. Everyone said that their voice didn't sound like their own... Yu saw the explosive reaction and looked proud... I also heard my own voice for the first time in my life. I thought it was really ugly. It turned out that my speaking voice was so ugly! For a moment, I felt both novel and decadent, unable to accept my own voice... From then on, I knew there was another "magic machine" in the world! And you can also play songs! At that time, there was only the "Song of the Week" in cable broadcast , which could be listened to repeatedly for a week. For other songs, we only listened to what the radio station played. Being able to listen to your favorite songs freely and repeatedly is so beautiful just thinking about it. Later, some families began to buy TV sets. Our family was the second to buy a TV set, and our home became a theater every night. The family in the front yard spent more than 400 to buy a tape recorder instead of a TV set. The neighbors talked about it for days. It was so strange that they bought one with no sign but only sound. But I didn't think so. I felt that the value of the tape recorder was absolutely equal to or even higher than that of the television. I was secretly full of praise and envy for that house... Later, there was another house that bought tape recorders in the backyard, not far from my house. I heard her singing over and over again in her house every day, and my heart was itching and unbearable. No matter how many times I heard that it was not my own and it was separated by a wall, I simply couldn’t stop thirsting for plum blossoms. The more I looked at it, the more thirsty I became! Therefore, the tape recorder became my biggest dream at that time.
knows that the living conditions at home are not good, but I don’t mention it. I have been very well-behaved and sensible since I was a child, and rarely make demands. But when I encounter someone I particularly like, I will make an exception and be particularly persistent. One day I finally asked for a tape recorder. At first, my parents did not agree to buy such a luxury item. I grind in front of my father every day. One day, in desperation, I actually said something like this: "Dad, if you buy me a tape recorder, from now on, I will do whatever you ask me to do..." My father was overjoyed when he heard this, and said, "Okay, I'm just telling you, let's buy it! Buy it right away!" From this incident, I discovered that it was my father who really held the economic power in our family.
I will buy it immediately. It was getting dark at that time, and the elder brother and the younger brother said, can’t I buy it tomorrow? I don't want to, lest I have long nights and many dreams. So, my eldest brother took me to the city, but I didn't find anyone suitable. We walked back and met my little brother when we reached the big layoff at the three-way intersection of Huaihai Road. He was afraid that we would not be able to buy well, so he followed us again. So, the three of us decided to go to the last place, a large shopping mall west of the overpass. The two brothers said, "If the last one has it, we'll come back. If it doesn't, we'll come back." After hearing this, I pouted with a grimace and an expression that said I couldn't bear to give up. When I got there, I saw the "Meido" recorder, which cost 260. I thought it would be suitable for anywhere, so I immediately decided to get it! The anxious heart finally calmed down. The mall had begun to ring the bell to close, and the salesperson was urging us... So, we hurriedly bought back a Mido. Later I found out that we had accidentally bought a domestic famous brand. At that time, there was an advertisement that resounded across the country: "There is so much beauty, there is so much beauty." The first month of
was the honeymoon period between me and "Meiduo", and I felt so sticky every day. You have to be shouted at to eat. The first tape I listened to was Xi Xiulan Zhang Mingmin's songs, "Back to My Mother's Home" and "Dad's Straw Shoes"... I was really fascinated by it... This is a dual-use recorder. When I got home from school every day, I would listen to music and the radio, and I was very interested. Sometimes I would still listen to it after I went to bed at night, and my parents would say over and over again, "Go to sleep, stop listening..." This can also be seen from this incident, how much I like the tape recorder, and how much I was favored at home at that time.Later, when I got married, my parents said, take the tape recorder with you, since it was originally bought for you. So, it followed me into my new home...
