To this day, Ronan still lives in an apartment in North Hollywood, on the one hand, he lives alone, and the requirements are not very high, and on the other hand, he knows that real estate will be driven down by the stock market, and he can wait for a while.

In fact, after the New Year, under the contact of the real estate agent, Ronan also took the time to look at the house a few times.

One in Beverly Hills, in the old-fashioned style of red bricks and green tiles, did not suit Ronan's liking, especially the green tiles, which covered the roof with green oil, and did not look like an ordinary eyesore.

In other words, how strange must the designer's thinking be to make the roof tiles green?

Lao Mei doesn't have a green hat, but the green roof tiles are also the first time Ronan has seen them.

Living in a house, thinking about the green patch above your head all day long, can you feel comfortable?

The other is located in North Hollywood, a short distance from Malibu, and Ronan only glanced at the location and directly denied it.

He doesn't want to be harassed by mountain fires every year, the water and fire are ruthless, and the fire won't see that you are rich, so he won't burn it.

Originally, Ronan wanted to consider the Santa Monica Valley in the Brentwood neighborhood, where the hillside is also a traditionally affluent area of Los Angeles, and the neighborhood is quieter and more desirable to live in.

But the wildfires that often burned Malibu in the winter and spring of previous years were transferred to Santa Monica Mountain, and if you don't count the slopes and valleys, the house introduced by the real estate agent is less than 3,000 meters away from the fire after it was extinguished.

And neighbors are also a factor that must be considered, the closest neighbor to that house is Matthew McConaughey, a young bastard who plays music for miles after getting too drunk on drugs, strips naked to call the police, and then flirts with the police.

The wildfire alone alone was enough for Ronan to blacklist the Santa Monica Valley.

This time, the real estate agent provided the listing, still in Beverly Hills.

Because the mansion is located on Mulholland Road, Beverly Hills, where Tom Cruise lives, and there is no job on weekends, Ronan also made an appointment with Tom Cruise, and Tom Cruise will accompany him to see the house.

Ronan thinks that living in a big city in his previous life, he had to grit his teeth to buy an ordinary house, and he didn't have to think about a single-family mansion or anything like that, and he was definitely not as good as Tom Cruise's vision in this regard.

Assistant Connie also accompanies Ronan to Beverly Hills, and if she likes the house, Ronan needs her to go through the relevant formalities and other matters.

Connie sat in the passenger seat, ignoring David, who was driving, and said to Ronan while looking at the information: "This house is located on the highest point of Beverly Park on Mulholland Road, designed by the famous mansion architect Landry, covering an area of 5.88 acres, and was built last year, and the previous owner was Dustin Holfman, the owner of Los Angeles Holfman Investment Company. ”

Ronan nodded slightly, "This is a new house?"

Connie said, "That's what it says, it's not inhabited since it was built. ”

Cadillac drove past Hearst Manor at this time, and a short distance ahead, on a small hillside, he saw Tom Cruise's mansion, which he bought when he married Nicole Kidman, and when the two divorced, Nicole Kidman asked for the title to the mansion, but Tom Cruise refused.

According to Tom Cruise to Ronan, the reason for the refusal was that he often entertained Scientology personnel in the mansion, and it was too cumbersome to change places.

Ronan could only be speechless, even if he was very good friends with Tom Cruise now, he would not rashly say anything about other people's beliefs.

In fact, Ronan thinks that Tom Cruise is mixed with Scientology, and the mix is quite promising, after all, they are all mixed into high-level members.

Ronan made a phone call, and soon a McLaren got off the fork in the road to the Cruise family mansion and followed his Cadillac.

The person driving the car was Tom Cruise.

Just a few minutes away, through Beverly Park, on the southern slopes, Ronan saw a very tall white wall through the gap between the tall trees.

The Cadillac turns onto a tree-lined path, and the tall and dense woods almost obscure the view, giving the mansion an excellent sense of privacy.

The real estate agent, Jeff East, stood at the gate of the manor, waiting for Ronan to arrive.

Ronan got out of the car and greeted Tom Cruise first, and Jeff East hurried up to meet him and said, "Mr. Anderson, Mr. Cruise." ”

Ronan and Tom Cruise shook hands with him.

Tom Cruise looked at the grand gate and said, "Ronan, it turns out that you are looking at this residence. ”

Ronan smiled and said, "I didn't know before I came. ”

He stood in front of the door, and also sighed, there were white marble doorposts on both sides of the door, not the kind of ancient and elegant carved columns, but built a modern rectangular body, the marble did not have any carvings, and the polishing was extremely smooth.

The middle gate has a simple shape and should be made of stainless steel.

Further on both sides, the tall fence is made of gray-white stone, and at intervals, there are corresponding monitoring probes.

Through the stainless steel wrought iron door, you can see the equally modern guard's room behind the wall.

"This style ......," Tom Cruise shook his head, "The houses of those people in Silicon Valley are generally in this style." ”

Ronan beckoned Tom Cruise: "Shall we go in and have a look?"

Jeff East pressed a remote control, the door opened, and the head led the way towards the inside of the manor, Ronan and Tom Cruise followed unhurriedly, Connie and bodyguard David followed behind.

The entrance is a vestibule garden, because the manor is built on the hill, the buildings inside make full use of the mountain, and the main road is somewhat tortuous, interspersed with dense vegetation gardens, like an enlarged "S".

The closest part of the garden to the gate and fence is mostly trees, not a scarce species, crape myrtle and jacaranda trees common in Beverly Hills, and some trees with particularly large canopies that Ronan cannot name.

Further inside, rows of crape myrtle trees, orchids, shrub flowers, and manicured stepped hedgerows.

The garden is apparently well-tended and shows no signs of decay, and ends in a low, flat meadow with large sunumbrellas and rows of white chairs in the very center.

"If you have a party outside during the day, you can open the umbrella. Jeff East, a real estate agent, said in a timely manner: "Block out the intense light of Los Angeles. ”

Tom Cruise nodded and said, "That's a good design. ”

"The huge sun umbrella that can be retracted can avoid affecting the growth of the lawn, and it is practical and has a good design," says Ronan. ”

Tom Cruise turned his head and looked around: "That's big enough. He suddenly whispered a joke to Ronan, "You'll have to find a lot of women to fill this place." ”

Jeff East didn't hear Tom Cruise's last words, but very politely waited for Tom Cruise to finish talking to Ronan before saying, "The estate covers an area of 5.88 acres. ”

Tom Cruise patted Ronan on the shoulder: "Is there enough money?"

The price of luxury estates is proportional to the size, but before Ronan could answer, Tom Cruise patted his head: "Look at me, I forgot again, you've been making a lot of money since November." ”

Jeff East showed a decent smile, even if the economy is in a recession, the current luxury manor is sky-high, and ordinary people can't afford it at all, and he has been talking to Ronan as a customer, knowing very well that with Ronan's financial resources, it is not difficult to buy.

Ronan really wanted to say that the landlord's family had no surplus food, and two movies in a row were big hits, and they did make a lot of money, and the company was completely controlled, and it was easy to mobilize funds, but the funds were mainly used for redevelopment.

Tom Cruise beckons to Ronan: "Let's go, Hollywood's youngest billionaire." ”

Ronan shrugged: "How can it be so exaggerated. ”

Tom Cruise has worked hard for many years, has an investment company under his umbrella, and knows more or less about business operations, saying: "I dare say, Ronan. Even if the stock market is going down all the way now, as long as you are willing to let the company go public, the assets will immediately increase to one billion!"

Ronan shook his head: "These are all false. ”

Tom Cruise said no more, pulling Ronan towards the white, three-story main building at the end of the lawn.

Jeff East heard Tom Cruise's words, but felt that it was very consistent with the facts, a company with an annual revenue of more than 100 million yuan, if listed, the market value of one billion dollars is not an exaggeration.

The main building shape is full of the sense of science and technology of modern society, the lines are sharp and angular, and the white main building with light blue glass can also give people a feeling of blue sky and white clouds.

This is completely different from the dark and deep feeling of traditional mansions, but with the vigor of the high-tech industry.

Ronan found it hard to believe that the previous owner of such a mansion turned out to be an old-school traditional investor.

It can only be said that everyone in this world has it.

There is also a line of words on the main building, in sky blue glass font, which is not too big, and Ronan can see clearly when he stands on the lawn - the future world.

"This is the name of the main building of the estate. Jeff East said.

Ronan didn't go any further, and let Jeff East take him around the main building, in front of which was a small paved plaza of light white granite, and on the left there was a similarly styled annex building, connected to the future world by a covered passageway, a garage, a storage area, and a servant's room.

Behind the small building, there is a large flat grassy area with a distinctive helicopter tarmac sign.

Turning to the back of the building, next to the futuristic world is a large and narrow outdoor swimming pool with a tennis court with a running track and some outdoor sports equipment.

To the right of Future World is a small practice golf course.

Tom Cruise nodded: "Yes, you can buy it and practice your golf skills." ”

Ronan looked at the eyehole and thought it should be remodeled, it was too unchallenging.

After looking outside, Jeff East proposed, "Shall we go inside?"

Ronan agreed, asking, "Why did Dustin Holfman sell this house?"

Jeff East appears to be honest: "He's broke. ”
