1232. Public
The house that Ms. Rowling helped find was near Brighton in a place called Howood.
The environment here is much quieter than the center of Wudu, there are many high-quality schools, museums and galleries around, the location of the property is a five-minute walk to the sea, a ten-minute drive to the station, and a direct line to Wudu.
The disadvantage is that housing prices are relatively high, but for this reason, most of the families living in the neighborhood are above the middle class, and the police here are more responsible than ordinary districts, and the security is much better than most areas in the city.
After Rowling sent the photo to Nie Wei, Nie Wei was ready to go to Huowu, and Shu Chang would also follow this trip to the UK, after all, in the next three months or more, Shu Chang would also accompany Nie Wei to live there.
A week later, Nie Wei and Shu Chang came to the location of the property in person.
Nie Wei and Shu Chang didn't rush to see the house, but now they have walked around twice and are familiar with the surrounding environment.
Basically, similar to what Rowling introduced, most of the residents in the neighborhood are middle-class, and basically all families with children, because the most famous schools in this area are several primary and secondary schools, which is a well-known school district in the neighborhood.
Nie Wei also visited the gallery and museum, but the content was lackluster, but it was comfortable to see with relish, and finally bought a painting for two thousand pounds.
Although Nie Wei didn't think that the abstract painting that didn't look like anything was worth two thousand pounds, Shu Chang liked it, and he didn't say anything to disappoint the fun.
After getting a little familiar with the surrounding environment, Nie Wei and Shu Changcai returned to the house and visited the villa for the first time accompanied by a real estate agent.
The main body of the villa is a three-story structure, and there is a recreation room underground, and the garage is built next to the villa, which can park two cars, and at this time there is a Volkswagen Golf left by the original owner that looks about eighty percent new, if Nie Wei buys the villa, this car will be given to Nie Wei as a gift.
The villa comes with a large garden, the original owner did not have any bells and whistles, that is, a neat lawn, the backyard is built with half a basketball court, it can be seen that the original owner's child should be a boy who likes basketball.
After visiting the yard and garage, the real estate agent opened the door and asked Nie Wei and Shu Chang to enter the house to check.
Ms. Rowling is still very reliable, when she was looking for someone to take photos, she was looking for a professional real estate agent to take pictures, and basically some details that ordinary people can't pay attention to, this professional has also taken all into account.
When Nie Wei arrived at the scene, he only needed to check and compare the content on the photo to see if it was consistent with the photo, and the accompanying real estate agent was not as likely to fool you in order to sell the house as in China, he would inform Nie Wei of some hidden dangers of the house, and then give suggestions for maintenance.
If Nie Wei agrees, he only needs to pay a maintenance fee, and then their intermediary company will send professional maintenance workers to repair the house.
If there is any non-man-made damage to the house after repair within a certain number of years, then the intermediary company will be liable, and the subsequent repairs and even compensation will be borne by the intermediary company.
Of course, Nie Wei can also refuse these repair suggestions, so the risk intermediary company will naturally not bear the risk in the future.
Nie Wei thinks this is really good, everything is written into the contract, although it will cost an extra amount of money, but who doesn't want to be able to worry about living in the house by themselves?
If the house leaks that bad, just the trouble is enough to toss people, and now the intermediary company is in charge, then it is naturally better, saving a lot of trouble.
Nie Wei and Shu Chang are also very satisfied with the layout of the house, and several bedrooms are sitting north and facing south, with plenty of sunlight.
The living room on the first floor is also very large, and there is a fireplace, of course, this thing is pure decoration in Nie Wei's opinion, and it is playful at most, and in winter, I am afraid that I will freeze to death if I really rely on this thing to keep warm.
In fact, the house has a heating system, but it is not like domestic heating with water heat, but electric heating, more similar to air conditioning, so in winter, the electricity consumed by this heating system alone is very amazing, and it will be installed for families with certain financial resources, otherwise a large amount of electricity alone is enough to make people's wallets embarrassed.
The layout is satisfied, and there is nothing wrong with the house, but some water pipes and circuits are slightly aging, after reading everything, Nie Wei signed a sales contract with the real estate agent on the spot and paid in full, and after paying the money, he also got the key to the house.
The real estate agent walked a little drifting when he left, and if a million-pound house was sold so easily, and the key client still paid in full, he felt that his dream of moving here might not be far off.
Although the house was bought, Shu Chang and Nie Wei did not live like this.
Although the layout of the house is very satisfactory, but the style of decoration is not liked, the house has to be renovated, and the harmful gases need to be removed at that time, and it will take a month to live in.
After buying the house, Nie Wei also made a phone call to Rowling to thank her for her help.
Hearing that Nie Wei bought the house she recommended, Rowling was also very happy, on the one hand, it solved the problem of her old friend's house, and on the other hand, it also helped Nie Wei.
Nie Wei made an invitation on the phone, and Ms. Rowling helped a lot in this matter, so she naturally wanted to invite her to a meal.
Ms. Rowling was not polite, and happily agreed to the invitation on the phone, and the two agreed to have dinner together at a well-known Western restaurant in Wudu a day later.
At this time in China, Nie Wei once again appeared on the hot search list.
Because the second episode of "Roommate" Wenju Banquet was broadcast, Nie Wei's gluttonous pot-wrapped meat that all the stars drooled over also attracted the attention of a lot of foodies on the Internet.
"How delicious it is, how can I be hungry like that, I drool when I see it. ”
"No, I want pot meat, I want to eat pot meat!"
According to rumors, Nie Wei recorded another canteen variety show in South Korea, which also made pot-wrapped meat, which attracted countless Koreans to be wildly sought after and sold hundreds of copies. ”
"Is that the "Chinese Restaurant" you mentioned, when will it be broadcast?"
"No matter what his program, I want to eat pot-wrapped meat now, and it's pot-wrapped meat made by Nie Wei, if I don't eat pot-wrapped meat, I won't become a little fairy." ”
"The late-night poisoning series was really toxic, and the weight loss plan I had been sticking to for a week went bankrupt. ”
Many celebrities looked at the red and purple 'Nie Wei, pot wrapped meat' that was transparent in the hot search, and they all smiled helplessly, everyone desperately wanted to go to the hot search, but Nie Wei was good, and he could be on the top of the hot search if he made any dish.
I wanted to cry the most Wang Banbi, who was going to release the news of the national tour and strive for the last headline, but I didn't expect that less than two hours after I made the headlines, I was squeezed down by Nie Wei and a pot of meat, which made Wang Banbi call Ziyi in the middle of the night to cry and complain.
Zhang Ziyi couldn't laugh or cry about this, but there was no way, his own man also wanted to save face, although Wang Banbi said that he didn't care about hot searches and headlines, but in fact, he cared more than anyone else in his heart.
After all, the media laughed at him so much, even if he said that he didn't care, at least he was fighting in action, but every time he mustered up enough strength to make headlines, he missed the opportunity for no reason.
In Zhang Ziyi's opinion, this is a matter of luck, just like today, who would have thought that Nie Wei would cook in a variety show and look delicious, this news is obviously much more interesting than Wang Banbi's tour.
Second, although Wang Banbi is very famous, he is not a traffic star after all, and he lacks the physique of hot searches.
After saying that, the public recognizes his music and his status in the music world, but there is not much attention to him.
This person has no traffic life, but he was forced by the media to have the heart of traffic, and the result was that he was depressed and struggling.
Others laughed at Wang Banbi, but Zhang Ziyi was very distressed, and after thinking about it all night, she finally made up her mind to make it public with Wang Banbi.
After Wang Banbi received Zhang Ziyi's call, he was moved to cry, this time he really cried, the kind of tears that shed tears, he has been in the entertainment industry for more than 20 years, and he knows very well how much sacrifice Zhang Ziyi will have to do this.
Although he is known as Wang Banbi and is recognized as a first-line singer, compared with Zhang Ziyi, the top actress in China today, the gap is at least 108,000 miles.
"I don't care, I'm thirty-seven years old anyway, I'm also at the age when I should have a stable family, you've proposed to me, and I agreed, it's a matter of time before it's made public, I'm just afraid that after we make it public, you'll be slandered by some gossip. ”
Zhang Ziyi's words made Wang Feng even more moved, the other party was not thinking about herself at this time, but worrying about her own ability to bear it first.
Zhang Ziyi said that Wang Feng naturally wanted to get it.
After all, if the relationship between the two is made public, there will inevitably be many fans of Zhang Ziyi and even passers-by who ridicule him for eating soft rice, hugging his thighs, etc., after all, no matter how you look at it, it is him Wang Feng and Zhang Ziyi.
But Zhang Ziyi has made such a sacrifice, if she can't bear this criticism, then how can she deserve to have such a good wife?
Wang Feng made up his mind almost instantly.
Of course, disclosure is not a decision that two people can make with a pat on the head, and it is necessary to consult the brokerage company and get consent.
Wang Feng's side is easy, his brokerage company is opened by himself, he is the boss, just ask yourself, but Zhang Ziyi's side is not easy.
You must know that Zhang Ziyi is the hottest female star in Huayi at present, and she is also the only actress in China who is truly well-known in the world, and her personal situation affects the value very much, and may even involve hundreds of millions or even billions of market value in Huayi.
So when reporting to the company, Zhang Ziyi was also very nervous, afraid that the company would not agree.
She even felt that the company would most likely disagree.
After all, an actress who has no love life and an actress who is about to get married must have different values, such as some plots that will involve couples, if a married actress goes to audition, the director will consider whether the audience will play because of her personal love life or something.
The drama road will be narrowed invisibly.
Zhang Ziyi is not afraid of this, firstly, she has an idol face, but she also has powerful acting skills, and secondly, she is thirty-seven years old, and she wants a stable life from the bottom of her heart, even if the drama road is really narrow, she is willing.
But what she thinks is not necessarily the same as the company.
After all, if her acting path narrows, it will mean that the value will be reduced, and the company will definitely not want to see the value of its artists devalued.
In fact, Zhang Ziyi's guess was also correct, after she revealed her idea of wanting to get married to the company, Wang Zhonglei held a meeting overnight, just for Zhang Ziyi, and at the meeting, most of the directors felt that Zhang Ziyi was now making her love life public and preparing to get married was very unwise.
You must know that Zhang Ziyi has just been the queen of the Saturn Awards, and the heroines of the two sci-fi films made her popular, and she will be blocked by a group of people asking for autographs when she walks on the streets abroad.
At the peak of her popularity, if she breaks the news that she is going to get married at this time, the key marriage partner is just a first-line singer with no traffic, which is simply a joke about her career.
If this matter is made public, 99% of Zhang Ziyi's value will depreciate, and Huayi's market value will fluctuate and decline as a result.
The key Zhang Ziyi's disclosure will cause other artists in the company to have other ideas? Wang Zhonglei knows that many of these artists under his command are secretly in love.
Zhang Ziyi, as the first sister of the company, naturally has eyes and ears.
The results of the discussion at the meeting reached Zhang Ziyi's ears as soon as possible, and Zhang Ziyi felt that only Nie Wei could help her at this time.
At one o'clock in the morning, Zhang Ziyi made a phone call to Nie Wei.
Because of the time difference, it was just evening in the fog at this moment, and Nie Wei and Shu Chang were having dinner with Ms. Rowling and chatting about the movie at the same time.
Receiving Zhang Ziyi's call, Nie Wei was a little surprised, he realized what time it was in China for the first time, Zhang Ziyi called him so late, something big must have happened.
Saying sorry to Ms. Rowling, Nie Wei took the phone and walked to the corner to connect.
As soon as the phone was connected, Zhang Ziyi hurriedly told Nie Wei what she thought, facing Nie Wei, she had nothing to hide, she really had something to say.
"Nie Wei, the company doesn't seem to approve of my public love news, let alone the idea that I want to get married, what should I do?"
Nie Wei couldn't help but smile bitterly at this moment, Zhang Ziyi really gave herself a problem.
However, Nie Wei didn't hesitate for too long, and quickly made a decision, since Zhang Ziyi wanted to be public and wanted a stable life, then he agreed. ()
