Chapter 211: Juan the Talkative [2]

After the old couple said goodbye, Durin had a chance to have a good talk with Juan, "Mr. Juan, I heard that you have a good investment project in the 8th district, don't you? I really don't know how you managed to get that good place, I think many people are very envious, right?", Durin got all the information about Juan in the morning, including his personality and the like, there are very detailed records.

It may be because he has a little inferiority complex about his origin, unlike other rich people who have a very prominent background, so Juan's personality is a little sensitive. Without mentioning his origins or his failures, he is still a very good chatter and easy-going guy, but if he touches his taboos, he will not turn his face, but he will pull his face very long. In fact, this point is completely unnecessary in Durin's opinion, he is still a farmer, and he doesn't care about this, whether a person is a successful person or not has little to do with his birth and wealth.

Hearing Durin praise of his investment projects and vision, Juan's mustache turned up, and he seemed to be modest and lowered his head slightly, but the smile on his face betrayed his modest action. He waved his hand and patted Durin's wrist, "You won the prize, but I didn't know what to do at the time, so I could only click on the map with my eyes closed, who knew that I would click to that place, I believed in the guidance of fate, so I decided." ”

That's the second point of Juan's personality, he believes in the things that the gods are talking about, and he is said to have a special relationship with a young medium. Every year he went to some ancient cities that had not been devastated by the war to attend the ceremonies, and he took what the priests said very seriously. I don't know if it's because of his good luck, so the development over the years has been smooth, which also makes him believe that the "fate" thing is real.

Durin pursed his lips and took two glasses of wine from the tray in the hands of the passing waiter, one for Dove and one for himself, "I just heard what you said that you are very good at wine, and I am also interested in this aspect. I've heard there's a way to make a high level of sake without dracaen, is that such a thing?"

Juan was stunned for a moment, then laughed, he picked up his glass from the cold table, took a sip and shook his head with a smile, "I'm so sorry, I really can't help but want to laugh out loud, I don't know where you heard such a rumor? There were many people who wanted to change the recipe and replace the dragon's blood with something cheaper or more common, but they all failed. ”

"When a method has been passed down for millennia and is constantly improving, it proves that it has not been threatened by other methods. I don't know what the purpose of the person who said this to you, but believe me, the only brewing method in the whole world that can make high-grade sake will never be possible without the Dracaena material. Some people may add some other recipes, but the most fundamental things will not change!"

Durin gave a look of realization, and he nodded his head, "It's still your knowledge, I almost took that man's word for investment in his workshop." You know, I've just settled in here, and I'm familiar with the environment, and I don't have any projects other than a jewelry store that's open. I still have a lot of money in my hand and I don't know where to invest it, so there are always people who persuade me to invest in this or that. ”

"Actually, I think that if you want to talk about investment, the eighth district is obviously the best choice! There are mature plans and the attention of the major forces in the empire, which means that once the eighth district breaks ground, it will inevitably become the most dazzling new star of the empire!"

Huon very much agreed with Durin's point of view, and also indirectly praised him, "You're right, District 8 is full of potential. When you think about it, when the 8th arrondissement became a mecca for all filmmakers, producing hundreds, if not thousands, of films every year, whether it was a practitioner or a movie-obsessed tourist, they would come here in search of what they wanted. ”

"These people will bring great popularity, and they will bring us great wealth, if it weren't for the lack of money, I would have invested in some other projects in the Eighth District!", he took another sip of the wine in his glass and raised his eyebrows. Juan felt very comfortable talking to this young man, and had the pleasure of being able to speak his own mind, which he rarely felt, and it also made him feel very close and easy-going with Durin.

Du Lin asked "shyly" with curiosity and inquiry: "You said you don't have a lot of money?", Juan nodded, the rise of Illian is also a matter of the past ten years, he can accumulate tens of millions of wealth is already very lucky, if you want to get more wealth, you can only wait, his admission made the smile on Du Lin's face more kind, "Then have you considered partnering with others to invest in some projects?"

"This allows some of the funds to be used to invest in other projects, and there is no need to worry about running out of funds. I've heard a very clever saying about not putting all your eggs in one basket. If the basket falls, the eggs will break, but if the eggs are placed separately in many baskets, even if several baskets fall, there will not be much loss. ”

Juan looked at Durin a little strangely, and asked with some hesitation, "What do you mean...... Want to invest with me?"

"That's true, Mr. Juan, you are the one who has the most potential for development in this city, so I didn't think about anyone else when I thought about it, do you think we will be partners?"

Durin's early praise as the bottom did not make Juan feel disgusted, he thought about it very seriously, and found that it was not unacceptable if he cooperated. Investments in District 8 have taken up almost the vast majority of his liquidity, leaving him with little money to come up with in the coming year. He actually had an idea that if it weren't for the 8th arrondissement, he would expand his brewery so that he could make more money every year.

He thought for a while before nodding solemnly, "When the banquet is over, we will sit down and discuss it in a few days, I think this plan is feasible!"

Du Lin didn't expect Juan to speak so well, and his smile was even greater, "I'm going to visit you tomorrow morning, I wonder if you have time?"

"Morning, of course, you know my address, just come here, we can have a meal together at noon, my wife's cooking skills are very good!", Juan patted Durin on the shoulder, he chose the location in his own home, which Durin did not expect. He thought that in the company or somewhere, the family banquet was a very grand reception in this world, and it had even risen to the level of a ceremonial nature.

He was about to say something when he heard a burst of screams coming from outside the banquet hall, and many of the guests looked curiously towards the door to see who could cause such a sensation. But there are also some people who continue to do their own thing with a smile, and they already know who is coming.

When the group appeared outside the banquet hall, most of them turned their heads, because the people who came may be remarkable in the eyes of ordinary people, but they are worthless in the eyes of these rich and dignitaries.

"It's Corinna, she's been very popular lately!", Dove explained to a somewhat dazed Durin as he retracted his gaze, "Her last two films are said to be very successful, very popular, and the heroine of this Illian holiday." ”

Du Lin suddenly realized, "It's a movie star?"

Juan also chuckled twice, ordinary people may not know what these movie stars are like, but for these rich people, movie stars are just slightly more expensive vases, such as the Illian holiday filmed this time. The total investment in the entire film is 500,000 yuan, of which 50,000 is Corinna's salary, the male star is 150,000, and nearly half of the remaining 300,000 yuan is used to buy new color shooting equipment, and 150,000 yuan is used for other shooting expenses.

The money came from a wealthy man who was the same person who made Corinna a star. For this kind of rich person, spending hundreds of thousands or millions of dollars to become a popular star is really a simple thing, of course, their own purpose is not so simple. It's just that this kind of thing is what you and I want, and there are even many little stars who are more beautiful, younger, and better than Corinna waiting to pay.

Therefore, movie stars, especially actresses, are the same thing in the eyes of the rich.

"We'll talk more when we meet tomorrow!", Juan shook hands with Durin again, "Have a nice evening!"

"You too!"

After sending Juan away, Dove breathed a sigh of relief, she had longed for such an occasion, but when she really came, she found that such an occasion was really not something that could be dealt with casually. Everyone seems to be very educated, and the choice of words and sentences in talking and chatting is also very particular, which makes her a little timid and afraid to speak casually. Especially when standing face to face with these big people, Dove felt an inexplicable inferiority complex in her heart, she was able to stand here not relying on her own strength, but with the help of the strength of Du Lin around her, she felt that she was three points shorter than others.

Just as she was about to say something, she suddenly heard someone shouting Durin, which made her and Dulin turn their heads curiously.
