Chapter 148: Buying a car
Leaving Delong Building, Lu Chen and Lu Xi took a taxi back to the studio.
Lu Xi asked curiously, "What's the matter with that Director Wen, why is he so polite to you?" ”
She and Lu Chen came to Baidai Company to sign the contract, and after signing it, they waited in the reception room, and did not go to the trial room, so they didn't know what happened later.
When Wen Zhiyuan sent the two out just now, he was very polite.
It can even be said to be flattering.
This made Lu Xi feel very strange, the attitude of the head of the brokerage department of Baidai Company had changed too much.
Lu Chen smiled and briefly said the grievances between Wen Zhiyuan and Zhang Qiong.
This is what Wen Zhiyuan himself told Lu Chen.
After listening to this, Lu Xi suddenly realized: "So that's the case, others say that the workplace is sinister, really"
She couldn't help but shake her head.
Lu Chen has always been reluctant to sign a contract with another big company, and even declined the personal invitation of the music director of Feishi Records, she was more or less incomprehensible at the time, but now that she thinks about it, Lu Chen's choice is really too correct.
There is definitely no way to compare with Feishi Records, and the internal intrigue is also so fierce, if she enters Feishi Records with Lu Chen, I don't know what kind of situation she will face.
Although Lu Xi has a strong personality, he doesn't like to fight with others.
Although Lu Chen's own studio is weak, it has no problems in this regard at all.
If only he can make that much money!
Drip! Drip!
Suddenly, Lu Xi's mobile phone in the small bag rang twice.
She took it out and looked at it, and suddenly showed a joyful smile: "The money of Baidai Company has arrived!" ”
"So fast?"
Lu Chen was also surprised, he and Lu Xi went out on the front foot, and the money on the back foot caught up, the efficiency was too high, right?
The original signed contract. The terms and conditions stipulate that the payment is completed within three days.
Lu Xi smiled: "It looks like they attach great importance to you!" ”
If you don't pay attention to it, it is impossible for the financial department of Baidai Company to allocate the money so quickly.
It must have been a high-level person who spoke.
Lu Chen smiled: "If they want to sing in the future, then we will have to raise the price again!" ”
He insisted on the high-priced boutique strategy at the beginning, which is undoubtedly the right thing, and customers like Baidai Company, as long as they taste the sweetness, will slowly increase the price later. It can withstand it like boiling a frog in warm water.
If the previous quotation is low, it is not good to raise it too high all of a sudden, and it is easy to ruin your reputation.
Lu Xi was speechless.
She found that she was becoming more and more unable to see through her brother.
Drip! Drip!
The phone rang again.
Lu Xi looked at it fixedly, smiled again, and smiled even more happily.
Lu Chen was stunned: "What? ”
Lu Xi shook his mobile phone and said proudly: "The bonus of Beijing Satellite TV has arrived, 1.4 million!" ”
Lu Chen won the championship of "Singing China", although he gave up the so-called new star cultivation fund of 4 million, the total cash reward was still as high as 1.4 million. And it's also after tax.
However, the money was not immediately received at that time, and satellite TV also needed to go through the procedure.
Now that it's in the account, it's just a double happiness!
Lu Chen was even happier, and said without thinking: "Then transfer one million to my mother first, and we will go buy a car." ”
He shouted to the taxi driver in front of him, "Master, please take us to Jingguan Automobile City." ”
Lu Xi couldn't cry or laugh: "Don't be in such a hurry, right?" ”
It's okay to send money to your mother, but it's too much of a rush to buy a car now.
Lu Chen said with a smile: "Buy early and buy late." It's just right to buy now. ”
Since the establishment of the studio, several personnel have been recruited. The daily work is gradually becoming busy, and it is really inconvenient to travel without a car, and it also delays time.
Time is money, he has long wanted to buy a car, just waiting for the bonus from Beijing Satellite TV to arrive.
Now that Lu Chen had made up his mind, Lu Xi did not object again.
After all, the studio relies on him to make money alone. Now that I've come in so much, it's nothing to buy a car.
Lu Xi thought for a while and said, "Then I'll call Li Feiyu, he was originally from a 4S store, and he must know how to do it." ”
Lu Chen nodded: "Hmm!" ”
When the two arrived at Jingguan Automobile City, Li Feiyu was already waiting at the gate.
The 4S shop where he used to work was in the Motor City. is definitely familiar with the way, and there is no reason to be pitted.
Seeing Lu Chen and Lu Xi, Xiao Feige's classmate ran over with a smile on his face, and asked impatiently: "Da Chen, you are finally going to buy a car, I am looking forward to this day, have you thought about what car to buy?" ”
He is Lu Chen's assistant, and the car he bought must be driven by him.
Lu Chen said: "We don't need to buy too good ones, we don't want famous cars and luxury cars, we just need to be affordable." ”
"As for the price"
He thought for a while and said, "About 200,000, you can help me take a look." ”
"Two hundred thousand?"
Li Feiyu scratched his head and said: "At this price, then choose a domestically produced compact SUV, petrol-electric hybrid, the state subsidy is very high, not to mention fuel saving, and the configuration is equivalent to four or five hundred thousand imported cars." ”
Lu Chen smiled: "You are an expert who listens to you." ”
He got his driver's license when he was 18 years old, drove his family's car, liked cars but didn't know much.
Your career is just starting out, so there's no need to buy a car that's too good, but it's not too bad.
The boutique in the domestic car should be a good choice.
Lu Xi said: "Then you go and pick it first, and I'll come over after I go to the bank to transfer the account." ”
So they parted ways, Lu Chen followed Li Feiyu around the automobile city to choose a car, and visited several stores in a row.
Finally, I came to the 4S store of Zhonghua Motor.
A white SUV placed at the front entrance immediately attracted Lu Chen's attention.
The shape of this car is very good, the appearance is atmospheric and refined, the split front face and curved headlights are perfectly integrated, giving people a feeling of power.
Li Feiyu recognized it at a glance: "Zhonghua X7? This new car is already on the market! ”
The two of them stopped in front of the new car, and immediately the sales staff of the 4S store came to introduce them enthusiastically.
This Zhonghua X7 is a new urban SUV just launched by Zhonghua Motor, an environmentally friendly gasoline-electric hybrid, integrating a number of the latest technologies and having a high technical content.
In addition to an efficient and fuel-efficient powertrain. Its configuration is also very good, front and rear radar, intelligent cruise, on-board computer, panoramic sunroof, leather seats, etc., and the interior space is spacious enough.
The biggest feature of the petrol-electric hybrid is that it is fuel-efficient, and the fuel consumption of 100 kilometers is very low, of course, there is a gap between the power performance and the traditional power, but Lu Chen is neither flying nor off-road. Running around the city is perfectly sufficient.
The most important thing is that the safety equipment of this car is in place, with a sturdy frame and six airbags.
If it is opened for Lu Xi, he can rest assured.
In addition, in domestic cars, Zhonghua is a well-known brand, and the quality has always been reliable.
As for the price, it is 190,000 to 290,000 according to different configurations.
For this new car, Li Feiyu is full of praise, and Lu Chen is also very satisfied. So I asked the sales staff to arrange a test drive and drove the Zhonghua X7 around the Auto City.
When I drove back to the 4S store, Lu Xi also came over.
My sister doesn't have any requirements for the car, as long as Lu Chen likes it, she and Li Feiyu bargain together.
Lu Chen finally decided to buy a comfortable configuration, and the price of the naked car after the subsidy was 245,000, and the final price of the car was not less, but the 4S store added about 20,000 interior and services worth about 20,000. There are also small gifts.
The landing price of the whole vehicle plus insurance and purchase tax is 263,000.
Swiped the card and paid on the spot. After applying for insurance and temporary license plates, I picked up a new car directly from the 4S store.
After taking a break in the middle, the three of them also had a late lunch together.
The color of the body is white, and Lu Xi is very satisfied except for being a little worried about getting dirty.
The three of them went back together and drove this new car.
The driver is Li Feiyu, and Lu Chen sees that he likes this car very much. So he generously gave up the first driving right.
Li Feiyu drove the new car on the elevated highway in high spirits and said: "Da Chen, now that you have a studio and a car, you can consider buying a house in the capital." How can a big star live in an office!"
Lu Chen gave up the bachelor apartment he originally rented to his sister, and he has been living in the studio.
He plans to find another small apartment near the park.
As for buying a house yourself
Lu Chen smiled bitterly: "I really can't afford a house in the capital now, let's talk about it in a few years." ”
The first thing he thought about was paying off all the debts in his family, and buying a house was really a long time later.
Don't look at Lu Chen's current money, but according to his own estimate, if there is no accident, if he wants to pay off his family's debts, it will be at least until the year after next year.
However, compared to the despair that was not over in the previous life, it is now a great happiness.
As for buying a house, the houses in the capital are the highest in the country, and the average price is about to break through the sky.
He has just earned more than one million yuan, even if he doesn't have to use it all to buy a house, he can buy a bedroom if he chooses a new house in a better location, and the down payment is far from enough!
It is said that the biggest dream of many third- and fourth-tier celebrities is to save enough money to buy a suite in the fifth ring road of Beijing.
The income of third- and fourth-tier artists is not too bad, but the usual expenses are also high, and buying a house is really a luxury.
Li Feiyu sighed: "Also, the house is too expensive, I will have to go home sooner or later." ”
Lu Chen smiled: "Do you want to take Sister Xiaomei back with you?" ”
Li Feiyu smiled.
Since Chen Xiaomei started working in the studio, Li Feiyu's pursuit seems to have borne fruit.
Talking and laughing all the way, it looks like it's about to arrive at the park.
At this time, Lu Chen's phone rang.
It was Chen Jianhao who called, and he asked Lu Chen to go to a teahouse in the university town.
So Lu Chen asked Li Feiyu to drive to the studio first, and then drove to the place Chen Jianhao said.
When I found the land, it was already 2 o'clock in the afternoon.
The second one is sent, ask for a monthly pass!
PS: There is a third watch in the evening, everyone encourage and support it! (To be continued.) )
