Chapter 337: Buying a House

The Huayi Company was about to be in trouble. Before today, the GD Bureau had received quite a bit of negative news about this company. Miss Luo Quan's accusation was the last straw that broke the camel's back.

Originally, she and Huayi didn't have such a big hatred that she would directly go to the GD leaders to complain. But who told her she had just signed Su Yu? The blacklist order from Huayi was still there. If she didn't topple Huayi, Su Yu's development in the circle would still be greatly restricted.

Of course, she wouldn't be arrogant enough to think that these leaders were dealing with Huayi because of her. It could only be said that dealing with Huayi was in the interests of most people.

Huayi hadn't been doing things like this in the circle for just a year or two. If they wanted to clean it up, they would have done it long ago. The reason it was dragged until now was because they saw it was on the decline. When Huayi was running rampant in the entertainment industry, they didn't see these leaders being so indignant.

But in any case, solving such a big problem was certainly a good thing. For Senior Sister Kong Yue, who introduced herself to the leaders, Miss Luo Quan was sincerely grateful.

From the first time she saw her when participating in the program, this senior sister had been showing her kindness and closeness. Regardless of whether there was a purpose, Miss Luo Quan had developed a good impression of her.

After meeting the leaders, Miss Luo Quan returned to the hotel to pack her luggage and took a plane back to Shanghai with Su Yu and Lan Xuan.

Last night, Miss Luo Quan searched online for some personal information about Su Yu. Although there wasn't much information online because she was blacklisted not long after she debuted, some basic things could still be seen.

For example, born in 1996, height 1.70, Han ethnicity, and so on.

Su Yu's father was Han, and her mother was Uyghur. This was the reason she had a mixed-race appearance.

It is worth mentioning that Su Yu got into Jingying at 17 and graduated in 3 years. She could be said to be quite talented in acting.

Unfortunately, she was young and ignorant, signed with a second-rate brokerage company in the industry, and encountered such things as unspoken rules as soon as she debuted. As a result, she hadn't acted in a single play since graduation. Many of her classmates from the same class were now starting to play female leads or second leads in big productions.

Su Yu saw it, and it was impossible to say she wasn't jealous. Fortunately, her luck turned, and the company's last announcement gave her the biggest opportunity of her life.

After returning to Shanghai, Su Yu didn't return to the company. What should have been taken had already been taken. In just a few days, Su Yu would have no connection with the previous company.

Although Lan Xuan was an employee of the company, she was also arranged to be responsible for Su Yu as soon as she entered the industry. Both were rookies in the industry, had no achievements, and were not treated well by the boss and colleagues for a long time.

Now that Su Yu had signed with a new company, Lan Xuan naturally had to resign and follow.

However, Lan Xuan certainly couldn't leave as Su Yu did. There were still some materials that needed to be processed back at the company, and Su Yu also had to go home for a few days to see her parents.

Miss Luo Quan took advantage of these few days to plan to solve their living arrangements.

Although renting a luxury apartment was also fine, in the long run, renting a house was not as good as buying one directly. After all, the ownership of rented things was always someone else's. If they told you to leave, you had to leave.

Only with the property deed in hand could one have a sense of security. Besides, although the country had been controlling housing prices, only a small part of the area was falling, and most places were continuously rising. Especially in a first-tier city like Shanghai, the earlier you bought, the more you earned. It was no exaggeration to say that it was sitting and waiting for appreciation.

Although Miss Luo Quan didn't understand the market and the pros and cons of each building project, she didn't need to trouble outsiders. Her family was in real estate. Just making a phone call to her old man should be able to find a way.

"Hey, daughter, why did you think of calling your dad?" Miss Luo Quan called her dad, but it was her mom who answered the phone.

"Mom? Where's Dad?"

"Your dad went to take a shower, he should be coming out soon... Come, daughter, phone."

Aunt Luo Ni handed the phone to Eric, who was still wiping his hair. Hearing it was his precious daughter, he hurriedly wiped his right hand on his bathrobe and took the phone: "Hey, daughter, what's the matter?"

"Dad, does our family have a branch in Huaxia?"

Although Eric spent most of his time drinking and having fun with friends, he still remembered his family business in those major geopolitical countries. He thought for a while and said: "There are branches in Jingcheng and Shanghai, but they aren't doing big business. There are only three building projects and one project under construction. The main business is still providing design and supporting services to local real estate developers... Why, do you want to buy a house?"

"I want to buy one. I've either been staying in hotels or at friends' houses before. It's not good to go on like this for a long time."

Eric laughed: "If you want to buy, just say so. Jingcheng or Shanghai? What are the requirements?"

"It has to be in Shanghai. I don't have any requirements, just make it a bit bigger."

Eric nodded: "Is that all? Then fine, I'll tell your second uncle and arrange for someone to take you to see the house tomorrow."

"Thank you, Dad."

Eric, who satisfied his precious daughter's request, was very proud: "What's there to thank? In the future, if you want anything, just send me a text message. Anything that flies except rockets, anything that swims except aircraft carriers, I can get it for you."

Aunt Luo Ni curled her lips on the side: "Bragging so big, aren't you afraid of flashing your tongue?"

Eric didn't even look at his wife, pretending he didn't hear it.

A family doesn't talk about money. Besides, a house was a small case for both Miss Luo Quan and Eric. A phone call could solve it.

After finishing the call with his daughter, Eric was about to call his second brother, Andrei, but was stopped by Aunt Luo Ni: "Just pay for the daughter's house yourself. It's not good to let your brother use the company's money, right?"

Eric's expression was indifferent: "Why distinguish so clearly? The whole Albert is my dad's. In the end, it's going to be divided among us siblings. If he has any conscience, he won't be reluctant to part with a house."

After speaking, he called his brother Andrei:

"Hey, Second Brother, just woke up."

"Nothing much. Your niece wants to buy a house in Shanghai. Do you have any leftovers from the projects you did in Huaxia before?"

"You have? That's great. Get a good one. No other requirements, just make sure it's big."

"By the way, how much is such a house?"

"Can't say that. Even brothers have to settle accounts clearly. Even if it's our own industry, we still have to go through the accounts."

"Since you insist so much, just treat it as your birthday gift to Miss Luo Quan. Let her thank you, her second uncle, properly another day."

"Good, good, I'll go back to London to drink with you in a while, hahaha."

Eric hung up the phone with a stinky face and threw his phone aside:

"See, you still have to give Big Brother face. He wouldn't even take the money."

"Are you going back to London in a while?" Aunt Luo Ni asked.

Eric sneered: "Go back my ass. Second Brother wishes I would wander outside for the rest of my life. Don't look at how he calls me Big Brother and wants to drink with me now. If I really go back and drink water with him, you'd have to worry about whether there's poison in it."

Aunt Luo Ni was speechless: "That's a bit too much. Brothers wouldn't go that far."

Eric shook his head and smiled: "It's good if it doesn't go that far."

Early the next morning, Miss Luo Quan took Ai Wei, who had no class, and drove to the western suburbs of Hongqiao Road.

After calling her old man last night, within half an hour, someone named Zhao Ya sent a text message to her phone, asking if she had time tomorrow. If she had time, she should go directly to a villa area called "Tan Gong" in the western suburbs of Hongqiao Road. The house prepared for her was there.

Miss Luo Quan made an appointment with her, pulled Ai Wei to turn on the navigation, and went straight to Tan Gong.

Ai Wei was curious in the passenger seat: "Boss, where are you taking me?"

"To see a mansion. In the future, that will be the unified residence for the artists of our Springwater Entertainment Company. Of course, if you like to find a place to live yourself, that's fine too."

"See a mansion? I love seeing mansions the most!" Although Ai Wei lived in Shanghai, her family conditions were actually quite average. She followed her father when she was young, and later followed her mother. The houses she lived in were all old tube buildings, and the kind that were particularly crowded, where one room was only thirty-something square meters.

Therefore, Ai Wei had a special longing for big houses since she was a child. Now that she heard she was going to see a mansion and could live there in the future, she was excited beyond words.

Although it was called the western suburbs, the road was actually very smooth. Miss Luo Quan gave it a little gas, and the total driving time was less than fifteen minutes. If it were a taxi, twenty minutes would be the limit. It could be said to be quite close.

Tan Gong occupied a considerable area, with more than 40,000 square meters, twice the size of Tang Chen Yi Pin!

However, the number of houses was quite small, with only eighteen villas. The current selling price was as high as 300 million RMB per villa. If Miss Luo Quan really had to pay for it herself, she would really feel a bit of a heartache.

However, when searching for Tan Gong's information, Miss Luo Quan saw that the developer was not the Albert Company, which made her a bit confused.

Later, she understood. How could foreign real estate get land in Huaxia? It was estimated that there was an investment cooperation relationship. It was just that she didn't know how much the investment accounted for and whether it could be considered her own industry.

Of course, these didn't matter anymore. Soon, one of the villas would have her name on it.

Driving to the entrance of the Tan Gong residential area, two iron gates were tightly closed. Inside was a lush garden landscape. Seeing Miss Luo Quan's car parked outside the gate, a woman wearing professional OL attire immediately walked out of the security booth, and the iron gate slowly opened.

"Are you Ms. Zhao Ya?" Miss Luo Quan asked in the car.

Zhao Ya smiled sweetly: "Very happy to see you, Ms. Miss Luo Quan. Your house is at C2. Go straight and turn right at the third intersection."

"Please wait a moment... Security brother, can you park outside here!" Miss Luo Quan shouted loudly at the young security guard in the security booth.

"Yes!" The security guard roared back.

Zhao Ya hurriedly reminded: "There are special parking spaces at the villa."

"We let you walk while we sit in the car, that's so embarrassing." Miss Luo Quan said, looked at the rearview mirror, and after confirming there were no people or obstacles, she neatly tail-drifted and turned around, then parked on the side of the road.

"Let's go, take us to see the house." After parking, Miss Luo Quan walked to Zhao Ya, and Ai Wei followed behind, looking around.

After walking for ten minutes, Miss Luo Quan arrived at the villa gate her old man found for her.

This was a typical French-designed villa. In fact, she didn't know what French style was. It was mainly because there was a statue of Napoleon on the relief by the villa door, so she guessed it was French design.

But then again, wouldn't this house be a bit too big? She originally thought about buying a duplex design like the one Wen Xia lived in now, a big suite with more than a dozen rooms.

She didn't expect her old man to directly get her a four-story villa!

Miss Luo Quan asked Zhao Ya: "How big is this villa?"

Zhao Ya smiled and introduced: "C2 adopts a classic French architectural style, with a construction area of more than 1,800 square meters, four floors in total, each floor has its own function, and there is a private swimming pool behind the villa."

"More than 1,800 square meters?" Ai Wei was already stunned.

Before coming, she had tried her best to imagine what this mansion would look like. She originally thought the mansion she imagined was exaggerated enough, but she didn't expect the reality to be more outrageous than her imagination.

Miss Luo Quan muttered to herself: "A bit too big."

Zhao Ya's smile remained unchanged: "This is indeed the largest vacant property in Tan Gong, with a market price of about 320 million."

"Hiss!" Ai Wei gasped, thinking she had misheard the number.

"320 million." After hearing the house price, Miss Luo Quan thought about her car again.

Comparing the two, it was still more cost-effective to buy a house. No matter how cool the car was, it couldn't compare to the impact of this beautiful villa.

"Big is big. At worst, I'll just bring Wen Xia, Chunzi, and the others over to live here in the future." Miss Luo Quan thought about it and didn't struggle anymore. "By the way, are the furniture and appliances inside?"

Zhao Ya nodded: "Although Tan Gong was built relatively early, the furniture, decorations, and appliances inside are updated from time to time. Now, everything inside is the latest and best on the market!"

Miss Luo Quan smiled with satisfaction: "One last thing, where is the transfer done?"

"Someone will come here to handle the procedures later. Just hand over your ID card and household registration book to us to handle. We will help you finish all kinds of procedures in the shortest time." After Zhao Ya finished speaking to Miss Luo Quan, she took out her phone and started sending text messages.

"Can I go in and take a look?" Miss Luo Quan asked, pointing to the villa gate.

"Of course." Zhao Ya took a metal card from her briefcase and swiped it gently on the black magnetic area in the center of the gate: "This gate is electric. There are two ways to open it. One is swiping the card, and the other is facial recognition. After hearing the prompt tone, press this red button and the door will open."

"Always, pressing the door will also open faster."

"This is quite fresh, but I don't really like this design." Miss Luo Quan frowned when she saw the speed at which the door opened.

Zhao Ya smiled: "If you don't like it, you can change the design of the entire gate and change it to the way you like."

Miss Luo Quan waved her hand: "We'll talk about this later. Let's look at the house first." ===== CHAPTER 338 =====
