Chen Xing arrived in Paris on the afternoon of April 25th, and quickly went back to Paris. These two are almost equivalent to Paris’s QQ and WeChat. Then Chen Xing wanted to find Abel and asked if there were any cheap apartments for rent. p>
If he hadn't left most of his money for the tourism development of Chunman Village, Chen Xing wouldn't have labeled his residence "cheap".
But Abel has already gone to Italy.
Her global travel finally started after she earned enough money.
Chen Xing could only find another friend of his in Paris, John Matthews.
This retired president from a well-known American university currently lives in France for a long time. Except for occasionally returning to the United States to deal with matters or visit relatives, he spends the rest of his time in Paris. If nothing else happens, you can still find him by the Seine River at this time.
Chen Xing made a phone call and asked him to meet at the Montparnasse Tower.
This is a place they both like very much. Although this building is very abrupt in the center of Paris, you will not feel the abruptness until you sit in it, and you can visit Paris and watch Paris from a high place.
Iron Tower.
And it was also the place where they first met.
Chen Xing was playing with his cell phone. Not long after, John came out of the elevator and was led by the waiter to Chen Xing's table.
"Hey! Star, long time no see!"
"Long time no see, John!"
The two smiled and hugged, then sat down facing each other. Seeing that he didn't bring his wife and children, Chen Xing asked:
"Where is your family? Didn't I say to bring them here too?"
"Come on, it's better to let them eat at home, but next time you must tell me in advance. The last time you came to my house, they all went back to the United States and have not come back. They have always wanted to see you... Omaika, look at me here
What do you mean, you have too much free time when you are studying in Paris. How about you come to my house in two days?"
We haven’t seen each other for a long time, but John is still so enthusiastic.
"Okay, I will definitely come when I have time."
Registering tomorrow, Chen Xing doesn’t know what will happen next, so he can only agree temporarily.
Chen Xing talked a little bit about his development in photography after returning to China... In fact, there is not much development. Chen Xing said more that the things he took after traveling have become popular on domestic websites, and he now has millions of fans. John was in awe of Chen Xing.
Even though there are still many Internet celebrities with millions of fans in China, some of them still don’t even make much money.
And part of the income will be taken away by the guild.
But if you have millions of fans on a foreign website, the speed of making money is almost the same as robbing money. The environment in China is different from that in Europe and America. Paying habits in Europe and America have been developed. There are people who do it for free, but the proportion is not the same as in China.
The ratio of free sex is almost reversed.
So we all have millions of fans. At home, what flows is water, and abroad, what flows is oil.
So when Chen Xing said that he wanted to rent a place to live, John recommended several apartments. They were very expensive, but the surrounding security was also very good, which was very suitable for people like Chen Xing who had just arrived in Paris.
.
Chen Xing is also very satisfied.
When asked about the price, is this something I can afford now?
Chen Xing quickly said: "I can't afford to live in such a house. I just opened a company in China, and most of my money has been invested in this company. Now I am just an ordinary international student." p>
Three words, poor student.
Two words, no money.
"You have already opened a company."
"Yes, as a travel company, I don't know if I can make money, but I want to do something for the poor areas in our country, so I don't care if I can make money."
Chen Xing and John talked about the situation in Chunman Village.
He gave Chen Xing a thumbs up...
He has never thought about charity. After retirement, he brought all the money he earned in his life to France. But no matter what time it is, people who do charity can always gain the respect of outsiders.
According to Chen Xing's current situation, he thought for a while and said, "Then it would be best to stay in a boarding house."
"How to say?"
"There are many families in Europe and the United States that accept homestay for international students. It is very common. We especially welcome male international students from China like you. They are usually very well-behaved. I have also contacted several families here in Paris, and they are all very good."<
/p>
After saying this, he sighed and said: "It's a pity that we don't have any spare room in our house, otherwise it would be the same if you came to live in our house."
"Indeed, but your home is too far away from the school. I would still prefer to find a house near the school."
"Then I'll take you to see a friend of mine later. They seem to have another room in their house. You can take a look first and say if it's not suitable."
"Okay."
You also have to pay for a homestay. Even if you think you are living in someone else's home, it is actually no different from living in a B&B. Chen Xing will naturally not be polite.
There are homestays all over the world, but there were none in China before because of traditional cultural reasons. It is not very happy for others to live in one's own home. Furthermore, due to the influence of policies, private families cannot accept international students to stay, nor can they rent houses to foreigners.
.
It’s only now better that foreigners can rent houses in China.
As for why Chen Xing obviously wants to go to college, but the first thing he does is find a place to live. Isn’t it okay to live in a dormitory?
You must know that there are no special dormitories for international students abroad. In China, international students can live with foreign students. Since everyone is from abroad, they can quickly become friends and help each other.
But Paris does not have such a policy. If Chen Xing chooses to live on campus, he has no idea who his roommate is.
In order to avoid subsequent troubles, Chen Xing decided to come out and live on his own.
On the way, John said: "You are so popular in your country, so why don't you post your videos on YouTube and create your own channel? What if it becomes popular?"
"I can't manage just one platform."
Internet celebrities who post videos all over the Internet mostly have their own studios. At the very least, they need an assistant, otherwise they can read the comments?
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
Otherwise, just ignore the comments and live your life as you want.
Chen Xing can't do it. He has obsessive-compulsive disorder in this regard. Now he can't fall asleep without checking whether anyone has left comments for him before going to bed. Sometimes he falls asleep just looking at it. In this way, the quality of sleep is extremely high.
"Just post it and you don't care." John gave Chen Xing advice, "Anyway, if it becomes popular, you can make some money. Sometimes I think it's too easy for Internet celebrities on YouTube to make money."
Chen Xing cannot hear the word "making money" now.
Your heart will be moved when you hear it.
There is nothing to do in the country right now, so Chen Xing left 700,000 yuan. This amount of money, plus the money invested by Zhou Peng, is mainly for treating guests to dinner, inviting the local tourism bureau, and after approval, asking the government. p>
We have to let them fix the road.
Then we will see if there is money to build a visitor center, and then build a scenic gate at the bridge crossing.
Anyway, Chen Xing should go back by then, so we’ll talk about it then.
When new people start a business, everyone is still crossing the river by feeling the stones.
So Chen Xing only brought tens of thousands of euros when he came to France.
Money is not spent.
Moreover, Chen Xing also found a reason for himself to move the video to YouTube... If it becomes popular on YouTube and foreigners travel to our country, wouldn’t that be an increase in revenue for the country?
I’ll send it back later!
Chen Xing didn't have the skill of video editing before, but now that he has it, he can edit the previous videos to be more exciting.
John suddenly said: "We're here, right here?"
He pointed to a gate and said.
This is a big house facing the street. There are many shops, fast food, Chinese food, cafes, etc. on the left side of the street. Especially there are many cafes. It should also be a well-known street among tourists. Carrying bags along the way
of tourists keep passing by.
On the right side of the street are some houses but no shops.
The gates of these houses are hidden under the lush street trees. If you move a chair and sit under the trees in the summer, you will definitely feel cooler.
Chen Xing looked at the leafy trees and thought... It's almost summer.
"The house is big and beautiful." Chen Xing said.
"Well, their family has lived in this house for several generations, but the heirs of this generation have no sons, and their only daughter passed away due to illness a few years ago. Alas, they chose to let international students board as a boarding house because they wanted to have a more youthful atmosphere in the house.
, don’t look old-fashioned.”
Chen Xing asked: "A house like this must be very expensive, right?"
"It's not expensive, but they are picky."
John stepped forward and knocked on the door.
After a while, a little old man with the same stature as John opened the door, but he looked older than John. His face was obviously still young, but his hair was all white.
"John, why did you remember me here?"
"I'll introduce you to a young man." John hugged his old friend happily, and then called Chen Xing forward.
"This is a young man who came to Paris to study this year. My friend, Chen Xing, the school is not far from your home in Ensad. Do you still have a room at home?"
"Yes, yes, this young man entered ENSAD at such a young age. He will definitely be a big designer in the future."
The old man praised enthusiastically.
Ensad gives people the impression that it produces great designers. After all, most of the majors in this school are related to design. Among the ten majors, the only two schools without design as the suffix are printing and photography.
"Xing studied photography..." John explained to his old friend.
"Photography is also very good, come on, come in first."
John introduced Chen Xing as his friend. This is the relationship between the two of them, but it has nothing to do with this old man. In his opinion, Chen Xing is much younger than them. How can you make friends like this? He can be your grandson.
.
The decoration inside the room is simple but clean.
In the room, an old woman was wiping the dinner plates in the open kitchen, humming and watching TV. When she saw someone coming in, she said, "John, long time no see."
"Long time no see, Lizzy."
The three of them sat down on the sofa, and the old man asked: "There is a room, but there are a few questions. Even if it is the person you recommended, I still have to ask."
"Of course." John nodded, and then said to Chen Xing, "This old guy's name is Zuo Lan Feida, you can call him Lao Feida."
"Hey! If you respect the elderly, you should at least call them Uncle Feida, right?"
Chen Xing followed the good example and said: "Uncle Feida."
"Haha, little guy, let me ask you, do you smoke or drink alcohol?"
"I don't smoke. I occasionally drink with friends, but I don't drink too much."
"As long as you don't drink too much, and it's past ten o'clock in the evening at our house. If you haven't come back yet, you can stay in a hotel or someone else's house, but you are not allowed to come back to my house again. Do you accept that?
?"

"No problem."
"Don't worry, this is for your own good. Also, you are not allowed to bring your girlfriend to our house."
Li Zi suddenly added: "My boyfriend can't do it either."
"Yes, some time ago we thought a British student was quite good and had a well-behaved personality. We agreed not to bring a girlfriend, but he brought a boyfriend. Damn gay, he will definitely go to hell in the future!"
Chen Xing was silent for a while.
"I always like beautiful girls, but I want to ask if the room you have spared will be..."
"No, that room is now occupied by a young man from India."
Chen Xing is relieved now.
After asking a few more questions, the old man said with satisfaction: "Then you are welcome in our home. John is a very educated man, and I believe the people he recommends will not embarrass me."
Two old men, John and Feida, were chatting in the living room. Aunt Lizi took Chen Xing around the room.
At this time, the door of a room suddenly opened, and the sound of games came from inside, and then a young Indian walked out of it.
The appearance of Indians is particularly easy for Chen Xing to identify, and he can tell at a glance whether he is the right person or not.
The man said hello to Aunt Lizi, and then smiled at Chen Xing.
"Hello, are you the new roommate? You can come to my room to play games when you have time."
"Okay, thank you very much."
Chen Xing rarely plays stand-alone games, but now that he is abroad, he may be able to use this to make friends with foreigners. Anyway, with his level as a master of playing, wouldn’t it be easy to conquer a few stand-alone games?
The vacant room is on the second floor.
There are three rooms on the second floor, one of which is the master's study, the other two are dormitories, and there are two rooms on the third floor, one for sundries, one for people...well, the inhabitant is an American girl, too.
Studying art.
It’s not surprising that six out of ten people who come to Paris to study are art students.
Both rooms are occupied, so Chen Xing can only stay on the second floor.
The owner lives on the first floor, which is rare, but they also chose to move to the first floor in order to leave space for young people.
From this we can see that these are two good landlords.
Chen Xing's room is very big, at least 15 square meters, which is half the area of Chen Xing's room in the New Territories. Everything is tidied up, but the desk is older. Chen Xing went over and knocked on it and found that it was made of solid wood.
And it’s very strong.
Ordinary tables will shake with a slight push, but this table is very heavy and difficult to push without a little effort.
The bed is a wooden bed with four legs, and there is a tarpaulin covering the bed.
Aunt Lizzy turned on the light at the door and said: "We still have new sheets and bedding at home. You can just put them on and use them first, and then go out to buy the daily necessities you need tomorrow. What do you think, do you like this room?"<
/p>
"I feel very good."
When Chen Xing went down, John had finished catching up with his old friends and was about to leave to chat with Chen Xing for a few words.
At this time, a girl came back after opening the door.
About twenty years old, with long yellow hair, white skin, and a youthful and beautiful appearance.
After seeing so many people in the living room, I shrank my neck and hurried to the third floor.
Aunt Lizzy said: "This is Pena Hedwig. She is a good child and loves to be clean, but she is quite withdrawn."
Chen Xing nodded.
These people will be his roommates in the future, at least for the past two months.
