Xue Zihan: "Haha, is that right? Hearing what you said, I'm really looking forward to the young actress you found!"
Wang Zheng asked: "In terms of appearance, does it match the two heroines currently appearing in "The Last Wish"?"
Sun Quan did not express an opinion, just smiled and listened.
Sun Quan was not interested in arguing about Tao Yujuan's words: "Among the young students in school, there seem to be more outstanding girls than boys. Could this be related to girls being more self-disciplined?"
Because of this phenomenon, he also encountered it when he was a student.
In terms of study, many girls are indeed more serious than boys. This may be related to the fact that girls are more precocious, or it may be related to the fact that boys are generally more playful.
Tao Yujuan: "Well, anyway, I think the girls I've been looking for recently are pretty good, and they all fit the image of the two heroines currently appearing in "Dead Man's Last Wish". Anyway, the work at hand is almost over. Very soon."
Soon you will be able to meet them during the official audition, haha, I believe you will not doubt my words by then."
Xue Zihan was happy to hear this, "Sister Tao, just have confidence! I'm afraid you don't have confidence!"
Wang Zheng also smiled, "Yes! Let's wait and see."
Sun Quan also said with a smile: "If Fu matches the image of the two heroines in the book, then it depends on my opinion as the author of the original work, right? Haha."
As soon as he said this, the three people in the video conference all laughed.
Wang Zheng nodded: "Not bad! That's for sure."
Xue Zihan: "So! During the official audition, you, the author of the original work, must come!"
Tao Yujuan: "Hmm... I almost forgot that you are the author of the original work. Well, did what I just said say too much? Ah Quan, you won't deliberately say that the actresses I chose are not in line with the ones in the original work.
Character image, right? You can’t deny for the sake of denying!”
Sun Quan laughed and said, "Sister Tao, you are worrying too much. I am not that naive."
Wang Zheng: "I want to say... Yujuan, you should hurry up and find the two main roles of the male protagonist and the ghost! The work on Zihan and I is almost over, and there is not much time left for you."
Xue Zihan agreed, "Yes! Sister Tao, you really need to hurry up. By the time our work is over, if you haven't selected the male protagonist and ghost villain yet, things will be delayed!"
Speaking of this topic, Tao Yujuan slightly suppressed the smile on her face, "I know! I know it all, don't worry! I know it in my heart, and I will definitely seize the time!"
…
The video conference lasted for more than an hour that night. At the end of the conference, Sun Quan was still in a good mood.
Because he knew that the web drama project "Dead Man's Last Wish" was about to officially surface and officially enter the filming stage.
This is something he is looking forward to very much.
Just like when his first novel was printed and published, his current expectations for the web drama "Dead Man's Last Wish" are very similar to his expectations for his first published novel.
He believes that every online article author’s initial dream, starting from the time he officially enters this industry, is not only to earn royalties from his works, but also to one day have his works printed in type and published as traditional paper books.
For authors like Sun Quan, who has earned enough royalties and published many works, the next stage of his dream should be to make his works into film and television works.
Of course, if you want to include adapting it into an online game or something, that’s right!
But he believes that everyone’s ultimate dream should be to make it into a film and television production.
Although he writes Internet articles and he loves Internet articles deeply, he also knows in his heart that the audience of Internet articles is limited after all.
At least, it is incomparable to the audience size of movies and TV series.
And adapting his works into film and television dramas can allow more people to see his works, but it is just presented to more people in a different form.
By the way, his book "Dead Man's Last Wish" has been still very popular recently. In the first month after it was put on the shelves, it successfully won the first place in the monthly ticket sales list of new books and the first place in the overall monthly ticket sales list.
In the new month, his book "Dead Man's Last Wish" still leads the Qidian monthly ticket sales list. Like a bully, it firmly occupies the top spot on the monthly ticket list. The total number of monthly tickets and the second-ranked book are far apart.
He didn't know how others felt when they saw this month's monthly vote list. Anyway, he felt that this situation was very popular.
Make him proud.
…
In the half month after this day, Sun Quan's life became very busy, and he could no longer stay in his study every day and code peacefully like he had done a while ago.
First, there was a call from Kuang Longfei, saying that he had already found three buildings currently under construction. The locations, building heights, and price quotes were all different. He hoped that Sun Quan could take the time to conduct an on-site inspection and make a final decision.
After all, this is a matter of buying a building, involving at least tens of millions of dollars, because the building that is about to be purchased will be the company's headquarters building next, so this matter is also related to the future development of 99 Braised Chicken, no matter what
Look, this is no small matter. Kuang Longfei didn't dare to make his own decision.
After listening to Kuang Longfei's phone report, Sun Quan also felt that he should go see this matter in person and conduct an on-the-spot investigation.
As a hands-off shopkeeper, you have to have a limit.
No, he deliberately took out a time during the day and asked Gao Guang and Tian Youzhi to drive with him to the head office. After meeting Kuang Longfei and others, several cars went straight to the first building under construction.
On the way, Kuang Longfei sat in Sun Quan's car. Before the building he was about to visit arrived, he gave Sun Quan a brief introduction.
"Sun Quan, the building we are going to in a moment was built by our No. 1 Construction Company in City M. There is no need to worry about the quality of the building. Currently, the main frame of the building has been capped. In addition to the underground parking lot, there are a total of 18 floors on the ground.
The total area of each floor is about 800 square meters. The developer's quotation for us is 3,000 per square meter. When we get to the place, the developer's boss should receive us in person. The main thing is to see if you can take a fancy to that building. If you are here
If you like it, I will ask them to negotiate the price later. We can’t just follow the developer’s price, right?”
Three thousand per square meter? About 800 square meters per floor?
Sun Quan silently calculated the total price of the building in his mind and frowned slightly.
The total price of this building is over 40 million.
He can actually afford this building.
But an 18-story building in City M costs this price. What about the Magic City? Han Li has recently been helping him find a suitable building in the Magic City.
If you calculate it this way, one building in the Magic City may cost 100 to 200 million yuan.
yes!
Even at this price, he can still afford to buy a building in M City and a building in Magic City, and he can even have a lot of funds left.
But the two buildings took up so much of his funds, and he was still a little reluctant to part with them.
In other words... he thinks this deal is a bit uneconomical.
Although he knew that these two buildings would definitely make him a lot of money in the future, at this moment, he still felt that it was not a worthwhile investment.
So, he frowned and thought for a while, then suddenly asked: "How much loan can the bank give us?"
Yes!
He wants a loan.
He feels that it is most cost-effective to buy a house with a loan now, and the funds he saves here can definitely buy two more buildings.
Knowing that house prices will double in the future, wouldn’t it be more cost-effective to buy two more houses with the same funds?
Kuang Longfei was not surprised. He probably thought that Sun Quan was going to buy it with a loan, right?
…
While talking, the car was still weaving through the traffic on the street. By the time they arrived at the first building under construction, Kuang Longfei had already introduced Sun Quan to the three buildings he was going to see today.
As soon as the car stopped, a group of people who had been waiting on the roadside for a long time came forward with warm smiles. There were about a dozen of them! There were men and women. Except for the fat man in the lead, who was very casually dressed, everyone else was wearing trousers. shirt.
A man in his forties hunched over and with a smile on his face helped Sun Quan open the car door and then stepped aside.
The fat man wearing white jeans and a red polo shirt came up to him with a smile on his face, stretched out a fat hand from a distance, and greeted Sun Quan warmly.
"Welcome, welcome! Ah, this is Mr. Sun, right? You are young and promising! You are so young and promising! My dear Tan Xiang, I am glad to meet you!"
Sun Quan smiled, stepped forward and shook hands with him.
While sizing up the other party, he also glanced at the dozen or so people behind him, and then he discovered a phenomenon - among the dozen or so people on the other side, there were very few handsome men, but the women... were all young and beautiful. .
Judging by their age, those men are probably all smart-headed, and those young and beautiful women are probably the main force of the other party's sales department.
At this time, these people seemed to have seen the God of Wealth, with smiles on their faces.
But Sun Quan had no interest in chatting with them. This was not the purpose of taking time out today. After shaking hands with Tan Xiang and saying a few polite words, Sun Quan looked at the building under construction next to him.
At the same time, I also scanned the surrounding environment.
Looking at it from here, this building is really impressive and taller than all the nearby floors.
But Sun Quan felt that this was not the point.
Because the city is developing, there will be many buildings with more than 18 floors in this area in the future. Therefore, it is useless to say that this building looks impressive now. In the future, it will definitely be outshone by the surrounding buildings.
"Which street is this?"
Sun Quan turned to ask Kuang Longfei beside him.
Kuang Longfei: "Chunfeng Road, this street including several nearby streets, has many companies and government departments."
Tan Xiang, who was accompanying Sun Quan with a smile, also quickly echoed: "That's right! Mr. Sun, the location of this area is definitely worth mentioning. If your company headquarters moves here, it will definitely be very suitable! Haha."
Sun Quan was noncommittal.
But he nodded slightly in his heart.
location!
When he buys a house this time, the most important thing is the location. If the location is good enough, there will definitely be a lot of room for appreciation in the future. On the contrary, no matter whether the building is beautiful or not, or whether the quality is good or bad, the room for future appreciation will be limited.
As for Chunfeng Road, he had heard about it a little while studying in this city before, and it was indeed a good location.
"Mr. Tan, do you have the exterior and structural drawings of the building? Can you show them to me?"
Sun Quan looked at Tan Xiang and asked.
Tan Xiang nodded quickly, then stretched out his hand to signal to the sales department not far away, "Mr. Sun! Please come over here! The drawings are in the sales department, let's go to the sales department to take a look! Do you think it's okay?"
Sun Quan nodded, smiled, and, surrounded by a group of people, walked to the sales department door first. Tan Xiang, the boss with a smile on his face, walked half a step behind to accompany him.
Behind them, in addition to a dozen people from Tan Xiang's side, there were also vice president Kuang Longfei, two bodyguards Gao Guang and Tian Youzhi, and several department managers from the 99 Braised Chicken Company headquarters.
Purchasing a building for the company's headquarters is an annual event for the heads of the 99 Braised Chicken Company headquarters.
Wherever they buy the building this time, they will have to work there in the future, so they are naturally very concerned about it.
…
Accompanied by Tan Xiang, Sun Quan and others spent half the morning looking at the drawings of the building and visiting the site.
Tan Xiang and others tried several times to test Sun Quan's feelings and whether he liked their building, but Sun Quan was perfunctory. From the beginning to the end, he never revealed his true thoughts.
However, more than a dozen people on the other side did not dare to show any dissatisfaction and still received him warmly.
Of course Sun Quan would not make a decision so quickly.
There are two buildings elsewhere that I want to see today!
He hasn't gone to see those two buildings yet. How could he decide now whether to buy the building in front of him?
yes!
On the way here just now, he had decided to borrow part of the loan from the bank when buying a house, and with the saved funds, he would see if he could buy two more buildings.
But even if he wants to buy two more buildings, he will not still choose to buy in city M!
Buying a building in city M to serve as the company's headquarters is more than enough.
If you buy a house, it will be purely an investment in real estate, and you will naturally want to invest in first-tier megacities with higher returns.
For example, the Magic City, Beijing, Shenzhen City in the south, etc.
After viewing the building, around 10 o'clock, Tan Xiang and others enthusiastically tried to persuade Sun Quan to stay and have dinner with them at noon.
His attitude was really enthusiastic, but he was ruthlessly rejected by Sun Quan.
In terms of words, Sun Quan was very polite, but he was very determined to leave. He didn't hide it, he just said that he wanted to see another building. Today's time is limited and he really can't stay for lunch.
.
After he finished speaking, he shook hands with Tan Xiang and said goodbye.
As soon as he turned around, when Tan Xiang and others tried to persuade him to stay, the two bodyguards Gao Guang and Tian Youzhi stood behind Sun Quan to block those people.
Kuang Longfei and others also subconsciously came to block Tan Xiang and his party.
When Sun Quan got into the car, Tan Xiang and the others could only watch the car and sigh. At this time, even if they forced Kuang Longfei and others to stay, it would be meaningless.
Now that all the big bosses are on board, what use are these vice presidents, department managers, etc. left behind?
Fortunately, from Sun Quan down, everyone at 99 Braised Chicken was very polite and didn't say anything. They just said that if they went to look at another building, it would still be possible to buy Mr. Tan's building.
…
Around 10:30, Sun Quan and his party came to another construction site and saw another building under construction, this one with 24 floors.
The location is also very good.
The unit price is slightly higher than that of the previous building, with the developer quoting 3,200 per square meter.
