I'm just an actor

Chapter 79 The House
Considering that he will stay on the set for most of the next two months, Xu Rong originally wanted to ask Jin Fangfang to help with the follow-up procedures of buying a house, but Jin Fangfang despised him as soon as he mentioned the topic.

"You only have 90 yuan and you still want to buy a house in Haidian? Small two rooms?" Jin Fangfang looked at Xu Rong who was sitting opposite him speechlessly, "And brother, can we open up our minds?"

As she said that, she added: "Even if you have already paid half of the salary for the film you are about to shoot, it is only 115 million. If this time last year, it would be more than enough to buy a three-bedroom apartment, but now, it is not at all. impossible."

"So if you really plan to buy a house, and it's more than [-] square meters, you can't pay for it yourself."

Xu Rong looked at her suspiciously, not understanding what she meant.

Jin Fangfang rolled her eyes helplessly, and said, "Of course it's borrowing money. It's a good deal to spend other people's money to buy your own house, and it can be used as an investment."

Xu Rong shook his head, he had considered the method of "interbank lending" before, like Li Youbin and Huang Xiaoming, they are not short of money, but he is not in urgent need, so there is no need to open his mouth to borrow money.

"You mean a commercial loan?" Xu Rong thought for a while, then smiled wryly, "But I've inquired about it. The interest rate of a commercial loan is quite high, and I only have a house under my name, so I can't get much money."

Jin Fangfang completely understood that although Xu Rong's vision was red, his vision still restricted his thinking, so she calmed down and said persuasively: "Who do you think you are most valuable to?"

Probably afraid that Xu Rong would not understand, she specially reminded: "And I especially hope that you can borrow more."

Xu Rong looked at Jin Fangfang who was like a little fox, frowned and thought for a while, then suddenly said: "You mean the company."

Jin Fangfang snapped her fingers and said: "You guessed it right, I can assure you, don't say too much, there is no problem within 1000 million, didn't the chairman say, you should treat the company as a family, and borrow some money from your own family." , you can’t ask for interest, right?”

Xu Rong thought about it, not to mention, Jin Fangfang's method is really feasible to a certain extent. He is currently popular, and the contract is still too early to expire. As Jin Fangfang said, the company may be eager for him to borrow money, because the combination of the two will be stronger.

And from his own point of view, if he borrowed a huge sum of money, in order to ensure that he can pay it back, the company will not reduce his resources.

"Of course, when you borrow, you can't just borrow 1000 million, you have to borrow 2000 million or more, because in this case, even if the group lends you 1000 million, they will still feel that they owe you a little bit." See Xu Rong quite satisfied Jin Fangfang smiled and said, "To tell you something that you may not be very happy to hear, within a year or two, if you work hard, take ten plays a year, keep doing commercial performances and endorsements, and earning 1000 million yuan is not counted. No matter how difficult it is, but no matter how high it is, the company will have to bear certain risks, and it is impossible to borrow."

Xu Rong thought for a while, and opened his mouth. He suddenly realized that the girl with a short head in front of him had an uncanny grasp of people's hearts.

Borrowing money from the company can stabilize the group's worries at this moment. The artists under Chang Jihong will definitely leave after more than a year, that is, after the contract between Chang Jihong and the company expires. At that time, in the whole of Hairun, the only first-line artists who can really show their talents are him and Sun Li.

But Sun Li's attitude is still unclear. What worries the company the most is that she has a good personal relationship with Chang Jihong.

He was different. At that time, he and Chang Jihong were fighting to the death. It was no secret to the group's senior management.

Classmate Xiao Zhang and Xu Xing were stunned while listening. Their family background is not bad, but the astronomical figure of 1000 million is completely beyond their cognitive boundary of wealth.

In contrast, Xiao Zhang is easier to accept, because 1000 million is about [-] after [-], but Xu Xing has a clearer understanding. With so much money, she can basically achieve financial freedom. You can buy all the clothes and bags you buy, so why should you be an assistant?
Xu Rong thought about it carefully for a while. He originally thought that 1000 million was quite a lot, but in a horizontal comparison, he didn't think it was too much.

For Li Youbin, it is the salary for two films.

But suddenly owed 1000 million, this burden is a bit heavy.

"Aren't you usually very confident? Don't you think that you can't even earn 1000 million in two years?" Jin Fangfang looked at Xu Rong who was still hesitating, and added fuel to the fire.

Xu Rong knew that she was motivating him, but let alone, he was so excited, he didn't understand so many twists and turns, but what he could see was that the house he bought in sjs really made a profit, and the price rose by nearly three one-third.

Brother Huang Xiaoming's eyesight is still fine.

Like Chaoyang and Haidian, the price increase is even more outrageous. I bought it this year, and the price will continue to rise according to this momentum. Not to mention, he may really not need to film anymore.

The most important thing is, as Jin Fangfang said, he really doesn't believe that he can't earn 1000 million in two years. If he is shameless right now, and keeps taking plays and various endorsements and commercial performances, he can earn almost a year return.

After thinking for a while, he made up his mind and said, "Then borrow it."

"Okay." Jin Fangfang stood up and said, "Let's go, go tell our President Guo."

After listening to Xu Rong's request, Guo Si's chubby face reacted calmly, but he frowned slightly and asked, "Borrowing 3000 million yuan, what are you doing?"

Xu Rong didn't care either, and said with a smile, "Buy a house!"

"Okay, I'll ask the finance minister to submit an application. The amount is not small, and it needs to be approved by the group. But if you are mentally prepared, I don't think it will be able to approve that much. Half of it will be enough."

Xu Rong nodded, don't say half, one-third is enough, he has seen it before coming to the capital, even if the single-family house with better service in Haidian is now only priced at tens of millions.

I bought it this year, and it will increase to 2000 million next year, 4000 million the year after, and 8000 million the next year, and [-] million sixties in the year after, which is much faster than filming.

Because of the time required for approval, his plan to buy a house was temporarily put on hold. After filling out the loan application, he left the company with Xiao Zhang.

If he really borrowed it, he was ready to spend it all. This is what brother Huang Xiaoming said: "Inflation is so serious, and money in hand is equivalent to waiting to be turned into waste paper."

If there is still money left, he will invest with Huang Xiaoming.

"Mr. Xu, do you really want to borrow it?" After leaving the company, Xiao Zhang looked at him curiously and asked.

Xu Rong nodded, and asked with a smile: "What's the matter? Are you worried that Mr. Xu won't earn so much money?"

"No, I'll sell the house before it's ready." Xiao Zhang didn't care about this at all, and seeing Teacher Xu's relaxed expression, he said, "By the way, Teacher Xu, my dad said yesterday that I want you to go home. Sit down."

Xu Rong's relaxed expression faded away in an instant, and he gave a dry laugh. He had met Xiao Zhang's father, a very serious middle-aged man, but he was a teacher at that time, and he had no plans for Xiao Zhang, so he naturally had a clear conscience.

And Xiao Zhang's parents were very polite to him.

It's just that now, the situation has changed and the offensive and defensive positions have been changed, but since it was brought up, if he doesn't go, it will appear that Xu has a guilty conscience.

He is naturally not guilty, what is there to be guilty of?
But he is nervous.

He is just a simple student who just wants to be a junior, but he suddenly wants to meet Xiao Zhang's parents.

He coughed dryly, cleared his throat, and asked, "Isn't your dad at work?"

"Come on." Xiao Zhang didn't realize Xu Rong's embarrassment, "He specially asked for annual leave yesterday."

Xu Rong pursed her lips, feeling uneasy, this Uncle Zhang is a bit ruthless, it's because he's on schedule.

Classmate Xiao Zhang looked at Teacher Xu's cramped appearance, feeling inexplicably strange. Dad just happened to come over to take a look, and didn't say to let Teacher Xu pass immediately. Why is Teacher Xu so nervous?

Xu Rong didn't think about it for too long. They were all coming to the capital. He couldn't avoid it, so he hissed and said, "Then why don't you call back and say, come by noon?"

"Ah?" Xiao Zhang stared blankly at Xu Rong, blushing authentically, "Is it noon today?"

Xu Rong said in her heart, my classmate Xiao Zhang, your parents have come to the capital to block me on their annual leave at the right time, if I don't go, then I'm afraid they won't come here in the future.

Seeing Xu Rong staring at him, classmate Xiao Zhang nodded habitually, took out his mobile phone with a pink bear pendant from his pocket, and said, "Then I'll call them right now."

Xiao Zhang's classmate's home.

Aunt Wang looked at her husband's serious expression after he hung up the phone, and said, "This is the first time Xiaoxu has been with Ruirui, so don't worry about it."

Xiao Zhang's father frowned: "Look at what you're talking about? I don't know if the girl will marry sooner or later?"

"But growing it so big is like raising potted flowers. For ten or twenty years, I'm afraid that it will be blown by the wind and rained. In the end, it will be taken away by a shriveled calf called "son-in-law" with pots and flowers. , the girl is going to live with someone for the rest of her life, so this is the first time this bastard comes to the door, if I don't do something, how do I know whether he is reliable or not?"

Because Aunt Wang saw Xu Rong more times, she was relatively relieved, and said, "What kind of bastard, it's not like you haven't seen Mr. Xu before."

"It used to be the past, can it be the same as now?" Xiao Zhang's father pondered for a while, then suddenly stood up on the sofa and said, "By the way, don't call Teacher Xu anymore, call Xiao Xu, I'll go Go buy a watermelon on the street."

"Why buy watermelon?"

"What can you do?" Xiao Zhang's father said, and he was about to leave the house in a hurry, "It's the whole thing!"

When Xu Rong entered the door, he had adjusted his relaxed expression along the way, and immediately did most of it.

I saw Uncle Zhang standing behind the door holding a gleaming kitchen knife, and said with a smile on his face, "Xiao Xu is here?"

Xu Rong had to mobilize his facial muscles, forced a smile, and said dryly, "Hello, Uncle."

"Come here, why do you still buy so many things?" Aunt Wang, who was wearing an apron, heard the voice and came out of the kitchen, as if she was seeing Xu Rong for the first time, holding him who was carrying four or five gift boxes. After looking up and down, he smiled, "Hurry up and get in the house, don't keep standing outside."

Xiao Zhang's home is not too small, and she bought the house for her college entrance examination, because she bought it earlier and the price is not as expensive as it is now.

"By the way, I heard that you guys went to see the house today, how is it?" After Xu Rong sat down in the living room, Uncle Zhang ran into the kitchen, brought out a big watermelon, and asked.

When Xu Rong's eyes were focused, he raised the knife and dropped it with a "click", and an oval watermelon was divided into two halves by him on the spot. He smiled and said, "It's hot, eat a watermelon to cool off the heat."

Xu Rong pursed his lips and nodded. He always felt that Uncle Zhang meant something, because before he cut the watermelon just now, the shiny knife in his hand was still shaking in mid-air towards him.

"I haven't looked at the money in hand, it's not enough for the time being." After finishing speaking, Xu Rong felt that such an answer might not be appropriate, and hurriedly added, "But it's okay, it's enough for me to make two more scenes."

He didn't dare to mention borrowing money. If Uncle Zhang and Aunt Wang knew that he wanted to borrow 1000 million, God knows what his reaction would be.

Xiao Zhang’s parents are both ordinary state-owned enterprise employees. At that time, Xiao Zhang changed jobs in the art troupe and was going to apply for Nortel. Aunt Wang retired in order to take care of Xiao Zhang. They are considered a medium-sized family with a debt of 1000 million. Not a small amount.

"Oh, don't just talk, eat watermelon." Uncle Zhang put the knife in his hand and took a piece for Xu Rong.

He didn't eat it himself, but took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, handed one to Xu Rong, and said, "Come smoke a cigarette."

Holding the watermelon, Xu Rong didn't speak, but looking at the untouched cigarette case just opened in Uncle Zhang's hand, he understood now.

Before coming, he asked classmate Xiao Zhang if he wanted to buy two cigarettes.

Her dad doesn't smoke!
So his mind became more concentrated, he wanted to put the watermelon on the table, but in the end he held it with one hand, and waved it in front of him with the other hand, saying, "I don't smoke."

"Hey, it's good for young people not to smoke. I heard Ruirui said that you study well?"

"good."

"It's okay." Uncle Zhang stuffed the cigarette he took out for a long time before stuffing it into the cigarette case again, and said in a homely way, "I read the news earlier and said it was you and Ruirui's roommate named Yang of"

"It's nothing!" Xu Rong was still holding the watermelon, and without even thinking about it, he said firmly, "Uncle, it's all hype by the company. I don't know her very well, and I haven't spoken to her a few times. Xiao Zhang knows it." , Uncle, don't worry!"

"Oh." Uncle Zhang looked at Xu Rong, who was sitting upright, and nodded with a meaningful smile, "Don't be nervous, it's not like you haven't been here before."

Xu Rong forced a smile. He wasn't nervous at first, but since he entered the door, he saw a series of swords, lights and swords, so he couldn't help but feel nervous.

"I heard from Ruirui that you are usually busy with work?"

"Well, kind of."

"Are you particularly tired?"

"Fortunately, you are young, you should be tired."

"When you are tired, will you give up your seat to the elderly when you take the bus?"

Is this testing my moral character?
Xu Rong thought so in his heart, nodded, and said: "I will definitely do it, and I can exercise even if I stand for a while."

Uncle Zhang's face tensed: "Then I have to buy a car later."

I am special!
Xu Rong didn't expect people to be waiting for him here. For the first time, he felt that his B+ business ability was not enough, because the expression on his face was gradually getting out of control.

Why didn't your daughter inherit your IQ?
"Yeah." Xu Rong nodded. In this spare time, he quickly adjusted his mentality and said after half a second of consideration, "I have been urging Xiao Zhang to take the driver's license test, and I will buy it as soon as she passes the test. I usually There are not many places to use cars, and the company will arrange them if they are used.”

"Well, not bad, by the way, Xiao Xu, do you have your ID card?" Uncle Zhang said with a smile on his face, "Let me see if your horoscopes match."

Xiao Zhang, who was sitting on the side, was stunned. Dad and Mr. Xu, why are they so strange today?
When did Mr. Xu urge him to take the driver's license test?
When will dad read horoscopes?

Although Xu Rong was confused, but because he was going to buy a house today, he did carry his ID card with him, so he hurriedly put the watermelon that he hadn't tasted on the table, took out his ID card from his pocket, handed it over, and said: "Take it."

"However, I was adopted by my grandfather. The date of birth on the ID card is not accurate, and I don't know exactly when I was born."

Uncle Zhang took the ID card, took out his mobile phone and snapped a few photos, and said with a smile, "It's okay, I have a friend who works in the Public Security Bureau system."

Xu Rong originally thought that Uncle Zhang meant to ask his friend to help him find out, but after thinking about it, he felt wrong, because his hometown is thousands of miles away from classmate Xiao Zhang's hometown.

He didn't think about it until he was going to the bathroom before dinner.

The faucet was dripping water, and while rubbing his hands seriously, he thought about why the other party asked for an ID card. Just as he was about to turn off the faucet, a thought flashed through his mind.

Good guy, I made a big circle, so I was waiting here.

Whether the police can find his biological parents is hard to say, but checking his house opening records is sure.

It also depends on whether the horoscopes match!
I'll go to you. Forget it, give classmate Xiao Zhang a face.

It was necessary to cheer up, Xu Rong looked at himself in the mirror, pinched the stiff facial muscles, took a deep breath, and showed a more rigorous attitude than in the art exam more than two years ago.

Today's meal is not good.

When Xu Rong came out of the bathroom, looking at the dishes on the table that were almost out of place, he couldn't help mentioning that he had eaten here before, and he had never seen such a rich meal as it is now.

Classmate Xiao Zhang was also stunned. She reckoned that if she hadn't come back late, maybe her parents would have stewed her and served it to the table.

Compared with Uncle Zhang's endless routines, Aunt Wang's questions are much gentler.

"Is your grandfather okay?"

"Fortunately."

"Have a drink?" Uncle Zhang opened a bottle of wine by himself, poured two glasses before suggesting.

Xu Rong pursed his lips. He wanted to explain that he had to go to the production set tomorrow, but seeing Uncle Zhang's appearance like a school exam, he had to bite the bullet and agree.

But his heart was trembling, he had seen Xiao Zhang's drinking capacity, and her father estimated that there would be no major problem drinking them.

"Dad, Teacher Xu has something to do tomorrow."

"You eat your food, and you start to feel distressed before you get married?"

Xu Rong poured it into her mouth cup by cup, and suddenly heard Aunt Wang say: "I heard from Ruirui in the morning that you want to buy a house?"

"Well, I'm going to buy a bigger one."

"Ms. Xu said she wants to buy a villa!" At the dinner table, classmate Xiao Zhang interrupted abruptly. This was what Xu Rong told her on the way here.

Seeing that Uncle Zhang and Aunt Wang were suddenly silent, although Xu Rong kept his expression on his face, he was quite puzzled in his heart. Isn't this a good thing?
His already not sober mind turned as fast as possible, and after glancing at the unaware Xiao Zhang next to him, he vaguely understood the reason.

Uncle Zhang had bought a house in the capital, so he knew the price, especially in recent years when housing prices had skyrocketed, and classmate Xiao Zhang suddenly said this, which probably made the two of them think that they were in the wrong household.

He coughed dryly, and decided to be ruthless, to reassure Xiao Zhang's parents, so he asked, "Uncle, aunt, I have a request."

Uncle Zhang had a sullen face, squeezed out a smile, and said, "Say it."

Xu Rong spoke very slowly, as if he was really asking someone else to do something, Xu Xu said: "It's time to buy a house. Look, can I borrow your household registration book and buy it under the names of me and Xiao Zhang?"

The reason why he spoke slowly was actually because he was a little confused, so he had to speak slowly so that his tongue wouldn't get stuck.

The atmosphere suddenly stopped for a moment, but then it was broken by the sound of Xiao Zhang's chopsticks hitting the plate.

She picked up a chopstick of fish and put it in her mouth. While chewing, she frowned and thought about the feasibility seriously. Since the account book is not here, I'm afraid I have to send it back when my father returns.

Aunt Wang was extremely surprised and said: "This is not appropriate, you are not married yet."

Uncle Zhang was stunned. He knew the weight of Xu Rong's words. Regardless of the fluffy words, they were worth a few million.

It wasn't long before Xu Rongcai became popular. He didn't believe that he could earn that much. As for his family situation, he had already scoured the news.

He didn't answer, nor refused, but instead asked, "Have you thought it through?"

Xu Rong suddenly became sober, but the arrow was on the string, and he had no choice but to shoot, and said: "Naturally, I have thought about it clearly."

"You're not afraid. Is there any eventuality?" Uncle Zhang said, looking at his daughter who was still thinking seriously. He couldn't figure it out. His daughter is beautiful, but she is only a junior at the moment, and there is still a long way to go. This Xu Rong is afraid Not a stunned young man?

"It's nothing in case." Xu Rong shook his head, and also glanced at Xiao Zhang.

If there is really what Uncle Zhang said in case, then he will admit it.

Unlike in the past, at this point, he has also developed great confidence in his own abilities. Ten million is indeed a lot, but given his current level of business, popularity, market conditions in the film and television market, and accumulated contacts, it really can't be considered a lot. .

Just like Li Youbin who left the house at that time, he might be in trouble for a while, but it was only for a while.

Furthermore, he was called to have dinner today, probably because he had planned to entrust his classmate Xiao Zhang who had been raised for 20 years to him. If he didn't show enough sincerity, it would make people worry.

"Okay, it's a man!" Uncle Zhang and Xu Rong looked at each other for a while, and then patted him on the shoulder heavily.

After a few drinks, Uncle Zhang didn't know that his true feelings were in place, he was still acting online, his eyes turned red, holding the wine glass in one hand, pointing at classmate Xiao Zhang with the other, and said: "Xiao Xu, our family Ruirui can be entrusted to you, she has been smart since she was a child, uncle sees you as a real person, if you are bullied, tell uncle, uncle will vent your anger on you."

"Hey, Dad, what are you talking about?"

Xu Rong was a little confused, what's going on?Why did the topic suddenly come here?

But on the lips, he still expressed his position immediately: "Don't worry, Dad!"

Uncle Zhang shook his hand, and the liquid in the wine cup spilled a few drops on the table, and he stared blankly at him.

The atmosphere was awkward for a long time before Uncle Zhang said with a smile: "Come on, let's touch each other."
