"Hey, Auntie... it's convenient! It's convenient! You said... this is good news, so you can do it. Anyway, this house is empty... Okay, then you can put it on my card later.
!”
"That was just a misunderstanding. I made it clear to Haohao a long time ago... Yes, yes, I'm sorry, auntie, for making you and uncle worried... Well, I will definitely pay attention next time... Yes! Yes! Yes, yes, OK
I'm coming over in two days... It's for work, but also to see me by the way... Well, okay, I'm really a little busy during this period. I will definitely come back to see you and uncle after the summer vacation... Okay, Auntie,
Could you please say hello to uncle for me and please take care of your health... Well, bye!"
In the car, He Xin hung up the phone. When he looked up, he saw Sister Hong looking at him with a smile. She said with a shy expression: "My mother-in-law called me just to tell me that someone wanted to rent the small courtyard I originally bought in Qingdao.
.”
Sister Hong's eyes suddenly lit up when she heard this, and she didn't care about getting down to business. She hurriedly said: "It's the small courtyard you bought on the beach in Qingdao last time. How much is the rent?"
"About fifty thousand a year."
"Oh, it was only more than 400,000 yuan when you bought it. In this case, you can recoup your investment in less than ten years. Xiaohe, you really have a good investment acumen!" Sister Hong sighed.
.
"No, I'm just lucky. Besides, I don't know how to do business, and I don't understand stock trading. Money in the bank is worthless, so I can only use it to buy a house. This time, the main reason is that a cultural tourism street is being planned over there.
My house happens to be along the street, and the location is good, so there are people renting it. The previous landlord waited for several years to rent it out, but he still didn't rent it out." He Xin pretended to be humble and said.
"Okay, don't take advantage of it and sell it! I regret not listening to you in the first place. Look at how much the house price has gone up now!" Sister Hong said sourly.
Last year, housing prices fell for a time due to infectious diseases, but by the end of the year, housing prices began to rise, and the trend is getting worse.
For example, the community where He Xin lives now had an internal price of 6,000 when he bought it. Now the price of a second-hand house has almost doubled. And the house he and Cheng Hao bought in Shanghai last year was only half a year old.
In an instant, the average price rose from 13,000 to 16,000. Yesterday when he was on the phone with his girlfriend, Cheng Hao also told him that there was a new property opening next door to the property they bought, and the opening price was 10,000.
seven.
Based on this calculation, the real estate properties currently owned by He Xin have increased by several percent. To use a popular word, his current net worth has skyrocketed.
For example, his manager Chang Jihong is now the general manager of Hairun's artist management department and runs his own company. His annual income is at least millions, and her husband is also a famous architect.
, the couple has already entered the highest-income group.
He Xin had persuaded her to buy a house before, but Sister Hong seemed to prefer investing in the stock market. As a result, house prices have risen now, but the stock market has been struggling. I heard that she lost a lot last year due to the negative impact of the infectious disease, which plummeted.
I still haven't gotten over it yet.
He Xin thought for a while and couldn't help but persuade him again: "It's not too late to buy a house now. After all, the stock market is too risky."
Sister Hong was thoughtful, but in the end she shook her head and said: "Forget it, let's not talk about this anymore. The more we talk about it, the more upset we are getting. Let's talk about business. I have already communicated with the crew about the release promotion of "Beauty Grass"
, the premiere is on the 24th, your schedule is all arranged in the evening, so as not to delay filming during the day. However, you will go to Shanghai on the 26th and 27th. The crew and I have asked for two days of leave for you. As for the Xi'an schedule, you can only
It can be canceled.”
"Since the crew has agreed, I don't have any problems here at all." He Xin nodded.
Of course, he would no longer persuade him as he said before. After all, what is in your destiny will eventually come true, and it is useless to force what is not in your destiny. Besides, a family like Sister Hong originally had an apartment in the city and a large villa in the suburbs.
More money or less money is just a number and does not affect their quality of life at all.
They were on their way to the Beijing Film Studio studio. Today was the first official day of filming for "The Promise." They had previously agreed to hold a grand media launch conference in the morning, but for some unknown reason yesterday the crew's executive producer
Chen Hong suddenly announced to the outside world that the launch conference was cancelled, and would not accept any media interviews after the launch.
Sister Hong guessed that it might be a promotional tool for the movie. Last year, the National Master's "House of Flying Daggers" was exposed to the media and the news was blocked. However, the more the crew blocked it, the more the public became curious about it, and the media did not hesitate to do so.
He spent all his efforts to spy on the crew's intelligence, so he could achieve the purpose of promoting the movie without spending a penny.
When his business car drove to the entrance of Beijing Film Studio, He Xin took a look and couldn't help being startled. There were hundreds of media reporters holding long guns and cannons gathered at the entrance. Of course, there were also a lot of onlookers.
What they faced were twenty or thirty big men wearing black clothes and sunglasses, equipped with walkie-talkies, Bluetooth headsets, and metal detectors. They were more than ten meters away from the reporters and stared at them with eagerness. It was very reminiscent of "Infernal Affairs".
The scene of the gang meeting in "Tao".
Although He Xin is no longer a rookie who has never seen the market before, and he once experienced the scene where reporters chased Shu Qi when he was in Yunnan, but when he saw everything in front of him, he couldn't help but exclaimed: "It's such a big scene! How much can this save?"
Promotional expenses?”
Think about it, if there is a press conference and so many reporters attend, the red envelopes, souvenirs, etc. will cost at least hundreds of thousands.
Sister Hong glanced at him and reminded: "Don't say such nonsense when you are on the set."
"clear!"
The two were chatting in the car. The driver, Xiao Wang, kept honking the horn and slowly drove inside under the guidance of the security guard.
Suddenly someone in the crowd of reporters shouted: "It's He Xin!"
I saw the group of people like a tide, surrounding the car and slapping the inside of the car.
Okay, now the car can't move at all.
As one of the six leading actors, He Xin appeared here for the first time today. The main reason is that he was originally in the capital. He had already tried makeup several times before and had many exchanges with Director Chen. Before filming,
The preparation work has been done quite solidly.
Unlike Zhang Dongjian from South Korea and Xie Biwang from Hong Kong, they both arrived just the day before yesterday. They were busy with meetings at the Beijing Film Studio these two days. The makeup test naturally attracted a lot of media attention. They even broke the news.
It was said that when Zhang Dongjian entered the studio the afternoon before yesterday, he had a conflict with some Hong Kong media.
Fortunately, security guards came to the rescue immediately and separated the crowd in time, allowing the car to drive inside smoothly.
At the entrance of the studio, which looked like a dilapidated factory building but was once known as the "No. 1 studio in Asia," there was also a buzz of people.
More than 300 students from Langfang Dongfang University Town and Nortel had gathered here long ago, and were taken to the makeup building in batches by the on-site production to put on makeup and dress.
When they saw He Xin getting out of the car, they were all very curious, especially those students from Nortel. Looking at He Xin's eyes, they could not help but show a burning look.
In a sense, He Xin's current identity is actually the same as them, they are all college students. But in comparison, he is one of the six leading actors, and he is accompanied by the on-site producer who nods and bows. And they
But they can only act as an extra, and any member of the crew can yell at them and give orders. This kind of psychological gap, as well as envy, jealousy... all kinds of feelings are indescribable.
He Xin heard from the staff that they were all from Nortel, and he took a special look at them, but he didn't find any familiar faces.
However, his eyes were soon attracted by a large number of spears and golden fingers leaning against the wall. It was a spear, but at the top was a golden hand extending an index finger.
He knew that according to the description in the script, this should be the unique weapon used by Duke Wu Huan of the North, played by King Xie Bi, and his white-helmeted and black-armored guards. I have to say that this design is really funny, he even
Some malicious speculation, if the extended index finger is replaced by the middle finger, it may be more eye-catching.
Because reporters gathered at the door and kept taking pictures, He Xin didn't stay outside for long and walked into the studio under the leadership of an on-site producer.
As soon as he entered, he was shocked by the scene in front of him. He saw a huge snow mountain cliff built inside, with salt flowers sprinkled underneath to decorate the snow scene. The towering trees "planted" behind were extremely lifelike and exquisite.
After all, it was a large-scale production with an investment of 200 million, and it was definitely the most exquisite scenery he had ever seen.
He estimated that this should be the work of the original art designer of the crew, the Japanese manga master Masako Kimiya. However, this manga master had a serious conflict with Director Chen on the styling concept and was unwilling to compromise. Not long ago,
He was fired and replaced by Ye Jintian, the original costume designer of the production team.
The first scene that started filming today was the group scene of the Snow Country War. Some of the extras waiting outside played the roles of bundled refugees from the Snow Country, while others were the Northern Duke's guards wearing white helmets and black armor, holding gold-finger spears.
There were rumors in the past that Director Chen likes to film in a smooth manner, that is, to follow the development of the plot. This is of course a good thing for actors, as they can maintain coherent emotions and will not increase the difficulty of performance because of the plot jumping around.
.
Maybe this is possible when shooting scenes with urban themes or relatively simple scenery, but for a big production like "The Promise", if you want to make it smoothly, the investment will not be 200 million, but may be several 200 million.
Originally, we planned to go as far as Inner Mongolia to shoot the actual scene for the Snow Country War scene. However, due to the local weather being too cold, the shooting conditions were difficult, and the cost was extremely high, we had to choose to shoot it in a studio.
.
According to the shooting plan, the scene of the battle in the snow country will take about ten days to shoot. This is also the heaviest part of He Xin's role in the whole film. Basically, it revolves around his rivalry with King Xie and Jang Dongjian. Therefore, Director Chen can
The Internet was open-minded and allowed him to take two days off to run a road show, which was a great favor to Paulie Bona, the investor of "Beauty Grass".
Of course, it is not ruled out that not only is he powerful and has a profound background, even Director Chen cannot afford to offend him and has to give in.
Then we have to go to Hengdian to shoot for about a month. The royal city built there is the main scene of the drama. Then we have to go to Yuanmou, Shangri-La and Inner Mongolia, and finally we have to return here.
Although He Xin received a salary of one million this time, he signed a contract for a full five-month period. If calculated based on time alone, the salary of one million is not high, because under normal circumstances, five
