Chapter 62: Beverly Hills
Chapter 62: Beverly Hills
……
After a night's rest, Guo Shouyun got up the next day in good spirits. As soon as I got dressed, and before I could wash up, there was a knock on the door.
"It seems that all the rules of my life and rest have been figured out by you!" Looking at Wendy Solo, who was standing outside the door, wearing a dark purple OL ladies' suit, her golden hair was pulled up high, and she looked particularly intellectual and generous, Guo Shouyun smiled.
"As your assistant, if I don't even know this, wouldn't I be too unqualified!"
Smiling and nodding, Guo Shouyun got out of the way, "I'll go wash up first, and we'll go down for breakfast together in a while!"
agreed, and followed Guo Shouyun into the door, "By the way, I made an appointment with a few real estate agents today, and after breakfast, I will accompany you to take a look at the house!"
Matrix Pictures is in Los Angeles, in addition to San Francisco and New York, this is definitely a place where Guo Shouyun will often stay in the future. That being the case, it would be inappropriate to continue staying in a hotel. Moreover, now that there is a steady flow of money in writing, he is not short of money for the time being. You can consider buying a mansion to live a luxurious life.
Of course, Guo Shouyun, who is still in the period of struggle in his career, does not plan to buy those super mansions that cost tens of millions of dollars at every turn. As long as it's quiet, there's a garden in front of and behind for him to write or relax after work, a swimming pool to work out, and six or seven rooms are enough.
"Wendy, you know what I'm asking, don't waste your time!"
"Yes. Quiet, private, not too luxurious, but with a good view!" Wendy Solo said with a hint of teasing.
"Bingo!"
"Is 'The Hangover' finished?"
Seeing the manuscript on the table next to her, which had been printed and bound, Wendy Solo reached out and picked it up. As Guo Shouyun's personal assistant, except for the beginning of the period, Wendy Solo knows almost every book he has written.
"I'm done. You'll send it to Christopher for me in a moment. ”
With that, Guo Shouyun walked out of the bathroom after washing.
"I really don't understand you. Others may not be able to write a 200,000-word novel for half a year. You can write a book in ten days and half a month, and the quality is good!"
Facing Wendy Solow's surprised and admiring eyes, Guo Shouyun raised his chin slightly, and said proudly with a smile: "So I'm a genius!"
"Huh...!"
Wendy Solo shook her head, a wilful look of disdain on her pretty face.
Guo Shouyun didn't care either, and went back to his room to change clothes.
Looking at his back, Wendy Solow's expression became admired again, and then she lowered her head and opened the manuscript, and after reading it for a while, she couldn't help but laugh at the wonderful plot in it.
"Is it pretty?"
"It's exciting!"
Subconsciously replied, Wendy, who had reacted, quickly raised her head, and her eyes instantly lit up. The dark blue Armani custom dark blue suit, with Burberry's blue and black tie and white shirt, Dupont brown leather shoes, plus a Patek Philippe limited edition watch on the wrist, so that Guo Shouyun, who is 187 cm tall and has a toned figure, completely highlights his man's charm, as well as belonging to successful people and Kochi elites, self-confidence, stability, and elegant temperament, coupled with his handsome appearance and career bonuses, is the favorite type of women all over the world.
"Well, what's wrong with my outfit?"
Facing Wendy Solow's eyes, Guo Shouyun opened his arms, looked around, and wondered after not feeling that there was anything wrong with him.
"No, it's just that you didn't think you were so handsome, boss?"
Holding the manuscript in her left hand and supporting her right elbow and her right hand holding her chin, Wendy Solo looked at the boss in front of her with interest and said with appreciation.
"That's because you have a problem with your eyes!" After unceremoniously glancing at his subordinates, Guo Shouyun turned around, "Let's go, after looking at the house in the morning, we will take a plane back to San Francisco in the afternoon, and we are very tight today!"
Looking at Guo Shouyun, who walked in front of him, Wendy Solo pouted slightly and immediately followed.
Had breakfast in the restaurant downstairs and drove towards Beverly Hills in the black Mercedes I had just bought. may be derived from the dick silk plot in his previous life, Guo Shouyun has a soft spot for Mercedes-Benz cars. Except for the Chevrolet at the beginning, almost all of them are Mercedes-Benz when renting or buying a car.
"Boss, this is Mr. William, the real estate agent of Hearst Real Estate!"
After Wendy Solow's introduction, Guo Shouyun briefly looked at the white man in his thirties, wearing a black suit, who looked a little obese, and then smiled and stretched out his right hand to the other party.
"Hello!"
"Hello Mr. Guo! It's a pleasure to serve you!"
Guo Shouyun nodded, "Let's go and see the house first!"
He has already watched two in a row and is not very satisfied, and he is too lazy to ramble anymore.
"Okay, please come with me. ”
Colby William, who was good at observing words and feelings, turned sideways and raised his left hand to signal Guo Shouyun to follow him.
"Mr. Guo, the next thing to introduce to you is a luxury villa covering an area of 1,588 square meters and a usable area of 815 square meters. Before entering the villa, you will pass through a 15-metre 'S' shaped walkway. That's the path we're on now. The unique design and the green belt composed of beech, oak, tung tree, tulipwood and other vegetation effectively ensure the privacy of residents. ”
As they spoke, the three of them had already arrived at the main entrance of the villa, and on both sides of the coarse gray granite pillars, there were low walls made of iron fences and half-meter-high blue-black stones, as well as courtyard walls composed of dense wisteria. The inside of the doorpost is a relief pattern, with a black iron door high in the middle and low on both sides.
"This is the courtyard gate of the villa, which is equipped with the latest intelligent security system provided by FUCHS, which not only has automatic alarm, automatic shut-off and other functions, but also the cameras on both sides can provide the villa owner with a high-definition view, allowing you to identify the visitor in the shortest possible time. In addition, the courtyard door also uses two types of door opening: manual and intelligent. ”
As he spoke, Colby William took out a string of medicine spoons, and after pressing one of the black buttons that resembled a cart's medicine spoon, the thick iron door slowly retreated to the sides under the power of electricity.
"Mr. Guo, Miss Wendy, please come in!"
Guo Shouyun nodded and strode in, followed by Wendy.
"On the right is a four-car garage, on the left is a green belt, in the middle is a flower bed and lawn. Mr. Guo, please see, the two-story building in front of you in Victorian style is the main body of the villa. In addition to the living room, the whole villa has 6 rooms and 4 bathrooms. In addition, there is a wine cellar, gym and storage room on the basement floor! The storage room uses a 50CM, bank vault-level password door provided by FUCHS, which can be used as a vault or a collection room, and the area is large enough, with an area of 210 square meters!"
Guo Shouyun looked at the villa with dark brown roof and white walls in front of him, and the appearance was not bad alone.
"Go inside!"
"Okay, please come with me!"
Following the asphalt-paved garden road, after stepping on the two steps, you will officially come to the main entrance of the villa.
"The door is a fingerprint lock, which is very convenient and safe!" As he spoke, Colby William opened the room with his fingerprints and walked in with Guo Shouyun.
Americans don't have the concept of a Chinese shadow wall, and after entering, there is a large living room except for the bathroom on one side.
"The floor is 18mm teak multi-layered, which is environmentally friendly and wear-resistant. The furniture is an Italian 'Asnaggi' blue and white antique classic. The chandeliers are from Swarovski, and none of the furnishings including paintings, carpets, sculptures, etc. Colby William gushed praise on every part of the villa.
Looking at the living room that was European-style classical, but not too dull, Guo Shouyun nodded secretly. The decoration style here is quite in line with his literary youth's sassy ~ sex!
Passing through the living room, there is a courtyard covering an area of about 400 square meters, in addition to the green belt with different kinds of trees, shrubs and vines, the swimming pool on the left side is 20 meters long and 10 meters wide. After looking at all the rooms on the basement floor and the two floors above ground, the last few people came to the roof.
“… The best thing about this villa is the view, which overlooks the famous Sunset Boulevard and the entire city of Los Angeles. ”
Guo Shouyun railing overlooked, the open vision is indeed intoxicating. If you are tired of writing, you can also relax your nerves from afar, or grab a glass of red wine in the evening and quietly enjoy the bustling city view and quiet night of Los Angeles.
Guo Shouyun, who was already excited, turned to ask, "How much does this villa cost?"
"$6.5 million! If you pay in full, you can also get a 95% discount!"
The economic crisis has led to a drop in housing prices. Of course, this is only temporary, and once the Fed lowers its benchmark interest rate to an unprecedented 1% after 9/11, the real estate industry in the United States will be boiling. When the time comes, the price of a Beverly Hills mansion will definitely skyrocket.
"How much is the down payment?" After nodding, Guo Shouyun continued.
"The down payment is 20% of the total price of the house!"
"I bought this villa, but I chose to take the down payment!"
Although Guo Shouyun now has nearly 10 million dollars in his account every week, there are also many places to spend money. When the capital is not abundant, you can save some of it. In any case, house prices will rise much more than the interest rate on loans.
"Okay, I'll take care of the transfer contract for you right away!" said Colby William with joy.
Regardless of whether Guo Shouyun is full or loan, as long as this order is completed, his CD will inevitably be five figures.
"Let's go!"
After Guo Shouyun nodded, he beckoned Wendy and went out of the villa with Colby William. The transfer of ownership is naturally handled by Wendy, the secretary.
After doing this, Guo Shouyun flew back to San Francisco again.
