Chapter 462 Butterfly Wings After the failure of adding ice, Xu Kun did not take it too seriously. He continued to analyze the script and write biographies of the characters, striving for perfection. Originally, he was not that interested in the role, but when he met with the actors at the opening ceremony in the morning, he found that all the leading actors were talented and they all put in their best efforts. Just to avoid being outdone by them, Xu Kun had to further refine the character of Takeda. The next morning, Xu Kun went to the Thomson Beijing joint venture company responsible for post-production. The post-production special effects of "Assembly" were also handled by this company. It is a Sino-French joint venture, and its parent company is the largest state-owned enterprise in France. The French's technology is not top-notch. Compared to the Americans who are used to making bold moves on green screens, they are better at scribbling and making changes on real-life shooting. And this is exactly what Xu Kun needs - of course, the price will be cheaper. At noon, he had a working lunch with the Chinese head of Thomson. In the afternoon, Xu Kun went with Jiang Yiyan, Wang Baoqiang and Hu Die to visit the townhouse, which had been topped out and was expected to be delivered at the end of October. Speaking of these houses, Xu Kun felt a little embarrassed, because this year housing prices have actually fallen due to the CD crisis - although the drop is not large, it still slaps the face of Xu Kun, a time traveler. "I really regret it!" The person who said this was not Xu Kun, but a fat guy who drove an Audi. The villa bought by this fat guy was not far away, and he came here today to see the roof-capping situation.
Because I saw Xu Kun and his friends walking around several houses, and thought they were here to look at and buy houses, I couldn't help but jump out and persuade them to wait a little longer. "Last year, seeing that housing prices were rising so fast, my wife was asking for my life, so I gritted my teeth and spent most of my life savings to buy this house. However, in less than a year, the price dropped by more than a thousand yuan, and the difference between the total amount and the total amount is more than 400,000 yuan!" The fat neighbor said this and slapped his thigh in pain. Although those who can come up with millions to buy a house are definitely not poor, no one's money comes from the wind. 40 is enough for him to buy another Audi A6. Finally, he said bitterly, "If I were you, I would wait a little longer. Didn't the newspaper say that a famous director predicted that this year would be the climax of the economic crisis before the CD crisis broke out? Oh, if I had heard about this earlier, why would I have suffered this loss?!" Seeing his fat neighbor couldn't help but slap his thigh again, Xu Kun quietly adjusted the frog-eye glasses on his face, fearing that the other party would find out that the "prophet" had actually fallen into the same trap as him. After sending away this kind-hearted neighbor, Xu Kun looked at the other three people helplessly. Before he could say anything, Hu Die, who was holding Baoqiang's arm, said, "Brother Kun, it's all my fault. If I hadn't kept urging you, you and Baoqiang wouldn't be in such a hurry to buy a house." "No, I was in a hurry to buy it." Baoqiang also rushed to take the responsibility. "Okay, okay." Xu Kun waved his hand and said, "I was wrong this time, but don't worry, even if it drops a little this year, it will definitely go back up next year. 24... I mean, according to economic laws, in the first years after joining the WTO, the overall housing prices in Beijing will definitely rise year by year." Hearing what Xu Kun said, Hu Die laughed again and said, "Of course, Brother Kun, your prediction of the economic crisis has spread abroad. I'm sure we won't be wrong if we listen to you." Baoqiang is so lucky to find such a smart wife. uh~ It seems like I introduced him myself, so that's fine. As for Xu Kun's speculation that the CD crisis will reach its climax in the second half of this year, it has indeed been brought up again recently. After all, we have already entered the second half of the year. I don’t know if it will cause any butterfly effect if it continues to spread. After viewing the house. The four of them split into two groups, Baoqiang and Hu Die were busy writing their autobiographies. It was supposed to be published in the first half of this year, but Hu Die's teacher thought that they should wait until Operation Kunpeng was released, and strongly suggested that Baoqiang include his experiences before and after filming Operation Kunpeng, especially the part where Xu Kun predicted the CD crisis.
As for Xu Kun and Jiang Yiyan, they naturally went to find Zhao Liying to inspect the training results. When we arrived at Xiao Zhao's rental house, the person who opened the door was not Xiao Zhao, but a girl who looked familiar. "Director Xu, Teacher Jiang~" Seeing that it was Xu Kun and Jiang Yiyan outside the door, the girl hurriedly and enthusiastically made way for them, saying, "Liying just came back not long ago and is in the bathroom touching up her makeup." As he was talking, Zhao Liying poked her head out of the bathroom and said, "Director Xu, Sister Yiyan, wait for me for a moment, I'll be right there!" Looking at her slightly red eyes, it was obvious that she had just cried not long ago. No wonder she was in a hurry to touch up her makeup as soon as she came back. The girl attentively took out a folding stool from behind the door and asked Xu Kun and the other man to sit down. She also pushed Zhao Liying's bedside table over to serve as a coffee table for the two of them to use as a table to make tea. The house that Zhao Liying is renting now was converted from a garage. Because the bathroom and wardrobe were separated, and the simple kitchen consisting of an induction cooker and electric rice cooker also took up some space, the actual usable area is quite limited. The girl was busy back and forth in such a small space, and her long, smooth thighs were spinning around in front of the two men's eyes, making them dizzy. Although the other party concealed it well, Jiang Yiyan clearly smelled the scent of the same kind. But she didn't care too much. After all, Brother Kun was a man who not only liked new things but also missed the old ones. The poorer the friends were, the more stable their status was. Typical examples were Wang Baoqiang, Chen Xuebin, and Li Yixiang. So no matter how hard this fairy in front of him tries, it is impossible for her to climb over his head without a special opportunity - on the contrary, people like Qin Lan and Liu Shishi who have real feelings are more dangerous. After looking at the legs for a while, Xu Kun pointed at Zhao Liying's bed and said, "You should sit down too. It's such a small place, and it feels awkward for you to stand while we sit." The girl then sat on the bed with great trepidation, leaning sideways to try to get closer and said, "Director Xu, I auditioned for the role in The Imperial Court Escort. I wonder if you still remember me." "Oh, no wonder you look familiar. Now I remember, your name is Wang, Wang..." "Wang Ou! My name is Wang Ou." "Yes, Wang Ou." As they were talking, Zhao Liying came out. Seeing that all the seats were taken and that it was not convenient for her to sit with Wang Ou, she swung her arms and greeted them awkwardly, "Director Xu, Sister Yiyan, why are you here?" Xu Kun didn't respond, but instead looked around and said, "You must have made a lot of money in the past six months, so why are you still living in a place like this?" When he asked this, Xiao Zhao's eyes suddenly lit up, and he said with a smile: "I want to save money to buy a house. Now I have saved 11 yuan. When I save 15 yuan, I will pay the down payment!" There is no difference between an unknown actor and a migrant worker. Being able to save 11 yuan in two years is already quite good. Unfortunately, housing prices have already gone up. In 03, a down payment of 10 yuan could buy a small three-bedroom apartment on the South Fourth Ring Road, or a large two-bedroom apartment like Xu Kun's. Now in the same area, a down payment of 15 yuan can only buy a single apartment with one bedroom, one living room, one kitchen and one bathroom, and the actual usable area is estimated to be only about 25 square meters. If you are willing to go to the Fifth Ring Road, you can probably buy an apartment of more than 30 square meters. When Xu Kun was lamenting about the housing prices, Jiang Yiyan, who usually interacted with Xiao Zhao, had already noticed something special and pointed at Zhao Liying's face and said, "Liying, why do your eyes seem brighter than before?"
