Chapter 0788: Is It Really a Dream Room?
Li Yu began his plan to become stronger.
On this day, Li Yu went to visit Charlie.
This old man has not been in a very good mood lately.
Charlie blames himself, he thinks the cause of the incident is his.
If he hadn't invited Li Yu to participate in the Grammys, maybe this wouldn't have happened.
Therefore, for more than half a month, Charlie did not go out and did not answer the phone.
If he hadn't often called Lu Zhiqiang to take a look, Li Yu suspected that Charlie would die at home.
It's a single-family cottage in the suburbs, and if you can have a house like this in the suburbs of Newyoc, even if it's crumbling, it's worth a fortune.
Standing at the door of the house, Lu Zhiqiang said: "The first time I came here, I was attracted by this house, it was a dream room." ”
Although Charlie's house looks like it is crumbling, it is beautifully repaired.
Since it is a detached house, it is equivalent to a villa.
The surrounding greenery is very well done, with maple trees on both sides of the road.
It was autumn again, and the maple leaves were red, partly on the trees, and partly falling to cover the road.
It's not too pretty.
Li Yu said: "I also like such a house, but if you let me settle here, I won't." ”
Lu Zhiqiang said: "Why? Wouldn't it be nice to like it? Oh, I see, Mr. Li is reluctant to go home in Kyoto. I know, people, always have to fall back to their roots. ”
Li Yu said: "There are reasons for the fallen leaves to return to their roots, but they are not the main ones. Some things are too long, so let's just go inside. ”
Lu Zhiqiang said: "No, Mr. Li, you don't say half of what you said, do you know it?" ”
Li Yu took a step out and retracted it.
Withdrew with Lu Zhiqiang and walked on the paved road with maple leaves.
Li Yu said: "Don't look at the good scenery here, in fact, there is such an environment in the rural areas of China." It's just that there are too many people, and there are too many mountains, so people are willing to run to the city. You have to go back and spend some money yourself, and you can get better living conditions than here, and the house is your own. ”
Lu Zhiqiang said: "What Mr. Li said is that there is a bad place here, even if you spend a lot of money to buy a house, you need to pay taxes every year according to a certain percentage of the value of the property, and once you don't pay taxes, the house will be repossessed." If you think about it this way, it is indeed better for us to be in China. ”
Li Yu said: "It's not just good, it's much better." Let me tell you a story......"
The story Li Yu told is a story he saw when he watched videos in his previous life.
It is about a university professor in a certain province who sold a house in the province after he retired, and immigrated to a beautiful country with his wife with the money to chase the air of freedom.
Normally, this amount of money is enough for two people to support their old age, and they can live a very nourishing life.
However, when the housing prices in the beautiful country were at their lowest, the university professor used the money to buy more than a dozen houses, intending to rent them out, and planned to rent them.
This is no problem, because it is a bottom-buying and the money spent is very small, even if you need to pay property tax, it is enough to rely on rent.
"But the tenants here don't pay their rent on time like ours, and some don't even want to pay it. Do you know what the result is? ”
Lu Zhiqiang subconsciously answered: "What is the result?" ”
Li Yu said: "University professors have no choice but to work as security guards, and they are the kind of security guards with guns. With the money earned from work, pay property tax ......"
If things go according to normal like this, it will still be fine, and the university professor and his wife can still live.
But the wife of a university professor has cancer.
Moreover, because only university professors have green cards, his wife needs to spend a lot of money to seek medical treatment in a beautiful country, where does he have it?
I can only let my wife return to China for treatment, and the university professor will continue to stay in the beautiful country.
At this point in the story, there was a creaking sound, and the sound of the door opening behind him was heard.
When Li Yu and Lu Zhiqiang were chatting, they swept aside the maple leaves on the road.
Although the red maple leaves look good on the ground, they are also dangerous.
The two of them heard the voice, turned their heads at the same time, and saw Charlie looking haggard, leaning against the door frame.
After seeing the two people at the door clearly, Charlie's face showed a smile that he hadn't seen for a long time.
Li Yu said: "The story is here first, you sweep this place clean." ”
Lu Zhiqiang was waiting for the end of the story, and Li Yu said this, which made him more and more itchy.
However, who made Li Yu the boss, Lu Zhiqiang had no choice but to accept it aggrievedly.
However, Lu Zhiqiang still couldn't help asking: "What happened to the old man?" ”
Li Yu said: "The old man is in prison. ”
"Wouldn't it? Isn't there still a house? ”
Lu Zhiqiang was full of questions, if he can't pay the property tax, he won't go to jail.
Li Yu said: "Killing people with guns, do you want to go to jail?" ”
There is no death penalty in a beautiful country, and the maximum is life imprisonment.
Murder with a gun is not to say that you have to go in and squat for one or two decades, the old professors are all retired, and there is no difference between squating for one or two decades and being imprisoned for life.
This ending was something Lu Zhiqiang never expected, he was shocked, what happened in the middle?
Li Yu came to Charlie and asked, "How are you, are you feeling okay?" ”
Charlie smiled gloomily and said, "I'm okay, if you have anything, just call me directly." I can go to the hotel and find you. ”
Charlie can drive himself, but it's just a broken pickup, the kind that has long been scrapped in China.
The speed was quite fast, but Li Yu felt unsafe, so he asked Lu Zhiqiang to pick him up every time.
Li Yu said: "I want to have a bigger fame, can you help me?" ”
He was referring to, of course, in the beautiful country.
Li Yu is very famous in the whole of East Asia.
But in the beautiful country, it is not enough.
If Li Yu can go to the next level in the beautiful country this year, and Li Jae-hee will end his troubles in the cold country next year, and then go back, Li Yu will definitely be unexpectedly welcomed.
Charlie said, "That's up to you, what you want to do." Album or concert, or movie? ”
Li Yu said: "Yes." ”
Charlie was silent for a moment before he said: "I'm not worried about you in songwriting, but with concerts and movies, with your fame, your appeal in the beautiful country is not enough." Moreover, the movie you make can't be like "Hero", although it will make many people know you, but it will not make people remember you. Because the movies you make are not liked by all beautiful Chinese people. ”
"You need to make movies that people here like to watch, but you can't be the main actor in that kind of movie, you know what I mean?"
Li Yu said: "I understand, let's shoot Super 1 first." All I have to do is sing now. Here's a demo I recently recorded, listen to it. ”
Charlie was stunned for a moment when he saw Li Yu take out a CD, and when his hand touched it, he trembled a little: "You recorded an album?" ”
Li Yu nodded and said: "There are ten songs, but I don't want to release them in the form of albums. ”
Charlie said earnestly: "If you don't release an album and only release a single, the quality of the single must be very good." In other words, every single has to reach the level of the title song, which actually increases the difficulty of writing, and you don't need to do this at all...... I'll hear it first. ”
As Charlie spoke, he suddenly thought that the person in front of him was Li Yu.
Then his worries will seem unnecessary.
So I didn't say anything about it, I put the disc into the CD player and pressed the play button.
The prelude to the first song had just risen, and Charlie's haggard face was visibly refreshed......
