Huayu, can you be called the best actor if you don’t indulge yourself?

Chapter 106 Is it a loss?

Return to the capital.

Li Luo drove the Grand Cherokee and headed straight for Changhong Film and Television.

Promotion cannot be accomplished by just having a meal, and it involves more than one city, so the relevant itinerary needs to be communicated clearly in person.

Looking at the hustle and bustle of traffic on the road, he felt as if he were in a trance in another world. After being in the group for almost two months, he finally had a rare break, although it was only a few days long and there was still a lot of publicity work to do.

But that work intensity is nothing compared to filming.

It's no less than a holiday.

During the filming process, it is normal for actors to cooperate with the promotion of a new drama.

It's not a double act.

The crew must cooperate under normal circumstances.

"Ding~"

The elevator door opened, and the situation was different from the previous time.

At this time, Changhong Film and Television seemed extremely busy, with people coming and going at the front desk and a lot of promotional materials piled up.

I met Zhang Long head-on.

The guy was holding a promotional poster in his hand and nodding his head as he looked at it.

In the poster.

I occupy the middle position.

Stand sideways.

Waving forward.

Jia Jingwen and Gao Yuanyuan stood on his left and right respectively. The former also put on a casual attitude, with a somewhat playful expression.

The latter pulled out half of the Sword.

Eyebrows furrowed.

Above the sea level is a row of small portraits with different expressions.

The iron triangle headed by Zhang Guoli was in the middle, with Xu Jinjiang, Shi Xiaolong, Guo Feili, Tao Hong and others lined up in a row.

There are rules for every position that each person occupies.

This thing can't be arranged casually.

"Look around." He walked to Zhang Long's side and pointed to the top of the poster cheerfully: "The two words 'Li Luo' look the most handsome, right?"

"Hey."

Hearing his voice, Zhang Long turned around in surprise: "I thought you could only come over in the afternoon."

Count it up.

We haven't seen each other for more than two months!

"Zhuozhou is not far away."

Li Luo held out his fist and bumped it with the other party with a smile: "After receiving your call, I must rush back as soon as possible."

"Let's go to the meeting room first."

Zhang Long rolled up the poster neatly and handed it to the staff member beside him: "Jingwen and Yuanyuan just arrived at the company, so let's talk about it together. There's no need to repeat it later."

"Okay."

Li Luo hadn't seen those two people for a long time, and he missed them very much.

Just about to move.

Another staff member stopped Zhang Long and handed him a thick stack of resumes: "Manager, this is the list that has been initially screened. Please take a look at it and set a time for the interview."

"it is good."

Zhang Long took the paper and continued walking forward.

He noticed that Li Luo's eyes were fixed on him, so he slowed down his pace a little: "What's the problem?"

"interview?"

Li Luo looked at his hands.

"Artists' assistants and company employees." Zhang Long patted the resumes in his hands, yawned and said, "Some artists like to use relatives and friends, but some are provided by the company."

“It’s just routine recruitment.”

"Can I see it?"

Li Luo scratched his cheek and asked shamelessly.

Assistant wanted.

But after thinking it over, he decided it would be better to find an outsider.

If you find a relative to keep around, if you give too much, he will be greedy, and if you give too little, he will easily be criticized. Moreover, he will do some nanny-like work, and to be honest, it will feel awkward.

It couldn’t be easier to find an outsider, and trust can be built up slowly.

Anyway, you get paid to work.

If it doesn’t work, change it.

"You're looking for an assistant?"

As soon as these words came out, Zhang Long immediately knew what Li Luo wanted to do, and he kept walking: "That's right, people's energy is always limited. What kind of assistant do you want? I can recommend a few to you."

“These are mostly newbies.”

Patting the resume in his hand, he continued, "It will take some time for training. It will be useless even if I give it to you."

The job of an assistant seems simple.

It’s actually not easy.

Not only do they need to serve tea and water, but they also have to take care of the actors' living habits and eating preferences, especially the chaotic work and rest schedules and long business trips, which are not something that most people can handle.

Apart from anything else, it takes several months once you join the group.

The filming was done day and night.

Those who cannot withstand strong pressure will have to run away after a short period of time.

Just these newcomers.

Don't ask for help.

Not causing any trouble is good enough!

Everyone has a good relationship with each other, and since there is a need, he doesn't mind helping to recommend one or two.

"Thank you, Brother Long."

Li Luo was immediately delighted and said quickly, "Help me find a woman who is more careful at work and doesn't talk too much. I plan to pay her 2,000 yuan a month. See if there is anyone suitable."

"Yo ho!"

Zhang Long stopped and held up the resume in his hand: "You are very generous, do you know how much these people are paid?"

"800 during internship, 1500 after becoming a regular employee."

"This kind of treatment is already very good. There are so many resumes that I can't read them all."

As an actor's personal assistant, as long as the employer is not too unfavorable, there are very few other expenses in basic life. At this time, a job with a monthly salary of 2,000 yuan and free food and accommodation is really something that people are scrambling for.

“This is exhausting work.”

Li Luo smiled and spread his hands: "If you pay more, others will work harder, right?"

Two thousand dollars.

Now he really doesn't care.

Instead of being stingy, it is better to be generous and ask people to work hard. Li Luo hates the kind of companies that talk a lot about wolf culture but let their employees eat grass.

"no problem."

Zhang Long threw a betel nut into his mouth and chewed it vigorously, saying, "As long as you have money, you won't have to worry about not being able to find people."

"I'll help you find a few in a moment."

As he spoke, he pushed open the door of the conference room.

"Wu Ge, Jingwen, Yuanyuan,"

Seeing the familiar faces inside, Li Luo smiled and waved to say hello.

Complete the publicity work.

Li Luo declined Wu Dun's invitation to dinner and drove straight towards Shichahai.

not much time.

There are a lot of things to do.

The filming of The Legend of the Condor Heroes was more than halfway completed and the second and third installments of pay had been received on time. With a huge sum of more than 1.3 million in hand, Li Luo naturally wanted to find a place of his own.

The money in your hands will only become less and less valuable.

But buy a house.

It's definitely a sure-fire deal.

Commercial housing is easy to buy, you can just buy it with your eyes closed. As long as it is within the Third Ring Road, the prices are rising sharply.

However, Li Luo now wants to buy a house to live in, so he needs to look around carefully. If he doesn't have the right connections, he won't be able to find a good house even with more than one million yuan.

Fortunately, Xu Qing was free in Beijing and helped find a few places.

I might as well go and have a look when I return to Beijing.

Seeing the familiar Mercedes-Benz G from a distance, Li Luo stepped on the brakes and stopped steadily next to the car.

I saw a woman wearing sunglasses inside.

He flashed a brilliant smile.

Xu Qing also took off her veil, with a beaming smile on her face.

The dimples are quite charming.

Following the other party's signal, I drove forward for a distance and parked the car by the side of the road.

"Boom."

Just closed the car door.

Xu Qing was hugged in the arms of Li Luo who walked quickly from the side. Her whole body was enveloped by the other's breath. Not only was she hugged, but her buttocks were also rubbed unceremoniously by his hands.

After kneading the dough for some time.

The Beijing girl became breathless and her legs staggered.

Almost unable to stand. "Xiao Luo."

After struggling for a while, she pounded her fist against his broad chest: "Don't do this, there are people around!"

"What are you afraid of?"

Li Luo didn't care about the painless attack at all. He tore off half of the opponent's face towel and said with a smile: "Everyone is wrapped up like a big hairy bear. Who can tell who is who!"

Looking at the red lips so close.

He couldn't hold it in any longer.

He took Xu Qing and leaned against the body of the Mercedes-Benz G-Class, and they spent some time together.

Only then did he help the other person put on the face mask.

The two smiled at each other, held hands and walked out of the parking space, turning into a young couple, and slowly strolled forward.

People who are wrapped up tightly like them.

There are quite a few of them.

So don’t be afraid of feeling awkward.

Is it possible to have such an opportunity to go shopping and stroll with Li Luo openly? Xu Qing was so happy that she couldn't suppress her smile and leaned her head on his shoulder, just like a couple in love.

"Is the house near here?"

Li Luo looked around and found that the alley was quite spacious with plenty of parking spaces.

"Yes."

Xu Qing's face under the scarf showed some disdain: "Why did you buy these shabby bungalows? Don't look at how beautifully Jiang Wen has tidied up his place. The money he spent on the renovation is more than the money he spent on the house!"

"Besides, your money can't buy a proper courtyard house."

"That's all the money."

She couldn't help but persuade him: "You can buy two or three new houses in the community. Isn't it a loss?"

In Xu Qing's opinion.

Of course it’s more comfortable to live in a residential area.

If all else fails, you can buy a villa in the suburbs. The cost-effectiveness of buying a detached house is really not high.

“Definitely worth it.”

Li Luo pinched her face and said, "It's fine as long as you live comfortably. Besides, more people will live in buildings in the future. It's a kind of enjoyment to be able to stay in a bungalow without being disturbed by people upstairs and downstairs."

"Not only me, but you'd better buy one or two sets if you have some spare money."

"There will be more price increases in the future."

"Don't."

Xu Qing quickly shook his head and said crisply, "I won't buy it. Yesterday, experts on the news said that housing prices will fall soon. Now it's as high as more than 5,000 yuan per square meter."

"It will come down sooner or later."

Not to mention her, many people now hold this view.

Everyone thinks that the current housing prices have gone crazy.

It will fall sooner or later.

Li Luo opened his mouth, not knowing what to say.

But there is no need for the other party to worry about this. Whether the price goes up or down, Xu Qing will never be short of this little money.

When they arrived at an alley, the two quickly separated.

The people from the Housing Management Office had been waiting in front. After some polite exchanges, a few people pushed open the shabby red door and visited the small courtyard. If the outside looked shabby, the inside gave people a feeling of being dilapidated.

Overgrown with weeds.

There is a withered ginkgo tree in the middle of the yard.

A breeze blew by, making the windows creak and also wrinkling Xu Qing's eyebrows.

"Xiao Wu."

Looking at the people from the Housing Management Office, she asked in a muffled voice, "Why does it look like this house has not been occupied for a long time?"

Xu Qing had never seen such a dilapidated yard.

The taste of disgust is palpable.

Unlike her, Li Luo was wandering around with great interest.

"Sister Xu."

Hearing this, Xiao Wu, as Xu Qing called him, quickly replied: "Actually, what we want is a house that is unoccupied and has clear property rights. This house is quite formal, and the main structure is quite intact. It just looks run-down."

"But the foundation is really good. It can be a good house after some repairs."

He was right.

He knows all the nearby yards, good and bad.

The other party was wrapped tightly and no one knew where he came from, but he was definitely someone he couldn't afford to offend.

If my direct supervisor hadn’t suddenly had something to do today.

It’s not up to me to come here.

"How big?"

Li Luo took a look at the layout and liked it very much.

"Two hundred and eighty square meters."

Xiao Wu could tell who the buyer was, so he walked up to him and introduced the house to him.

This private courtyard of nearly 300 square meters is quite square. There is a 10-square-meter front yard at the entrance. Passing through the moon gate, you will arrive at the main courtyard. There are houses on all four sides, although they look a little mottled.

But the main structure is fine.

It is located right on the shore of Shichahai, and you can see the beautiful scenery of the lake after a short walk.

Perfect location.

Li Luo doesn't care what's inside at all. It's better if it's a little broken. Otherwise, the price won't go down.

It has to be renovated anyway.

The price quoted by the other party made him feel troubled.

Two million, two hundred thousand.

The price is actually not expensive.

That is now. It will be almost impossible to take it down in the future.

Buying a courtyard house is different from buying a commercial house. You must pay the full amount at one time, so there is no way to get a down payment or something like that.

Of course, he didn't show it.

Check out a few places.

After saying goodbye to the people from the Housing Management Office, Li Luo and Xu Qing went straight into the barbecue area.

Sit in the box.

The mask was wrapped around my face for several hours before I took it off.

Li Luo flipped through the menu and closed it: "One pot of roast beef, one pot of lamb, and two light side dishes."

When you come to a time-honored restaurant like this, just try the signature dishes.

The side dishes were prepared for Xu Qing, and he basically ate all the two kilograms of beef and mutton himself.

"How about it?"

Xu Qing picked up the tea and helped Li Luo rinse the bowl: "Actually, the courtyards today are all similar, the only difference is the size. The prices are all real, it depends on what layout you like."

As long as there are no outsiders.

When eating out, Li Luo always rinses the bowl no matter whether it is clean or not.

Xu Qing has gotten used to his quirk.

Sometimes when I’m in a good mood, I’ll take the initiative to help.

"Let's talk about it later."

Looking at Xu Qing who was stirring the tea in the cup carefully, Li Luo moved closer to her and put his hand on her plump thigh: "How can you decide to buy a house after just one look?"

"Not enough money, right?"

The Beijing girl crossed her legs and pressed down his outstretched hand, while smiling playfully, "It seems that you have your eyes on the one with 280 square meters."

"That's right, the other cheap ones are cheap."

“The yard is too small.”

People like them just buy whatever they like.

There is only one reason for hesitation.

The money is not enough.

"Hmm~"

Li Luo was not embarrassed at all even though he was seen through by the other party. He calmly moved his clamped hand and said, "Let's wait for a while. The yard of about 100 square meters is too small. We have to give way to others even when we walk."

“I’ll be rich by the end of the year.”

"Don't bother me."

Xu Qing took a deep breath and clenched his thigh muscles tightly to prevent the other party from moving. "I'll give you one million. Although I don't like this kind of house, there are many people who like it."

"If you miss this opportunity, you will miss this store."

"you sure?"

Li Luo stopped moving his hands.

"determine."

Xu Qing's dimples appeared on his face, and he said proudly: "The woman sitting next to you is a wealthy woman. I dare not say how much more it is. It is no problem for me to give you one or two million."

"Not taking."

Li Luo emphasized: "It's a loan."

There is really nothing to hesitate about when it comes to this kind of house, it’s just a matter of how quickly you act.

Just a temporary change, buy it first and talk about it later.

"Good good."

Xu Qing bit her lip lightly and threw him a coquettish look: "So, classmate Li Luo, how are you going to pay the interest?"
