017 [House of Housewarming]

What is Kang Jianfei’s first pot of gold in his life?

move place!

It’s not that Kang Jianfei has not suffered, but that he has suffered too much. Once he has the conditions, he will choose to enjoy it without hesitation.

Everyone in my cousin's family was kind and treated him well, but it was too crowded there.

A 30-square-meter house, plus his cousin who is not yet one year old, lived in a total of 8 people. Kang Jianfei would work in the living room every night when he slept. Because the living room area was too small, the Wu family got up at night to go to the toilet several times, but he was careless and stepped on him directly.

In addition, the room has poor sound insulation, Kang Jianfei and Hu Juncai often hear "slap" sounds in their cousin's room at night. It's really embarrassing to live for a long time.

The cousin’s aunt Zhou Mingfang packed her luggage for the two and kept it in his mouth, saying, “A Fei, it’s better for you not to move out. Everyone can take care of each other and save a lot of rent. You two big men moved out and no one cooked three meals a day.”

Another cousin, Liang Ying, spoke much more straightforwardly. She smiled and said, "It's good to move out. It's too small and it's inconvenient for everyone to live in. Anyway, the house you rent is not far away, so you can save clothes. I'll take it over on the weekend and wash it together."

When his cousin Wu Chenggang was displeased, he blamed him: "What does it mean that it is inconvenient for everyone to live in? It's just a matter of talking!"

Liang Ying retorted without any weakness: "I'm not crazy anymore. Is it comfortable for you to live with eight people huddled together? People who moved out to live is called capable. You are so powerful and have been in Hong Kong for 20 years. Why did you still let Mingfang and I live in a public housing house?"

This sentence hurt Wu Chenggang's self-esteem, especially in front of the child, Kang Jianfei, Hu Juncai and two outsiders. Wu Chenggang's face turned red in an instant, and he shouted: "I'm not capable? Then why did you follow me in a stern way back then? If it weren't for you... Humph, I won't say it!"

Liang Ying sneered, "Say it, why don't you say it? Do you want to say that I have dragged you down? If it weren't for me, you would have become rich!"

When Kang Jianfei and Hu Juncai saw that the couple had a quarrel, they didn't know how to persuade them, so they could only escape in shame with their simple luggage.

Before the two went downstairs, Wu Chenggang chased after him and said with a hint of a hint of gratitude: "A Fei, A Cai, don't listen to her nonsense, your aunt can't speak."

As soon as he said this, Liang Ying's scolding came from behind: "Wu Chenggang, try saying it again!"

Kang Jianfei had a headache and could only silently pretend that he didn't hear anything.

Except for Zhou Mingfang who wanted to take care of the baby, his cousin's family came to help Kang Jianfei move. The group took a car to an outdoor high-end residential building on the Radio Road. Kang Jianfei stopped the car and pointed to the building and said, "It's here."

When Wu Chenggang saw the license plate outside the gate of the building, he was shocked and said, "No. 79, Broadcast Road, A Fei, you are crazy. The rent here is at least 1,500 yuan per month!"

Kang Jianfei handled the renting house alone, and Hu Juncai just knew that he was going to move here. After hearing Wu Chenggang talk about the rent, Hu Juncai said in pain: "1,500 yuan? It's almost up to my two-month salary! Ah... Ah Fei, why don't we live in another place? This place is too expensive and not something we can afford."

"Actually it's quite cheap. The rent in this building is only 1,800 yuan, and the rent on No. 83 costs more than 2,000 yuan. And walking a little forward is TVB, walking a little behind is Lishi, and going to work will be close to Acai in the future." Kang Jianfei smiled heartlessly.

Kang Jianfei chose to live here not as simple as enjoying it.

The radio channel is also called "Wutai Mountain". All radio and television stations in Hong Kong are gathered here. When it was originally planned, it was used to build high-end residential buildings and middle- and high-end civil servant dormitories, so the people living nearby are either rich or noble, and many celebrities in the film and television industry also live here. For example, Wang Tianlin's family lives on the upper floor of the house rented by Kang Jianfei.

Compared with the rich potential network resources here, the rent of more than 1,000 yuan per month can be completely neglected.

What's more, the Jiashi Building, originally No. 1A, Radio Road, was regarded as a TVB filming factory after Jiayi TV went bankrupt. Many modern dramas from Wireless and Shaw Pictures were filmed here. If Kang Jianfei filmed modern dramas in the future, the set would be very close to home, which would save a lot of time to get off work, and let alone the movie post-processing can be done here.

Wu Chenggang wanted to dissuade him, but Kang Jianfei's words made him shut up: "Cousin, my current royalty is 500 yuan for a thousand words, and the newspaper directly paid me 500,000 yuan for a royal remuneration. Today's "Oriental Daily" should have published this news. You can buy a newspaper and take a look."

Kang Jianfei walked into the gate of No. 79 Radio Road with his bag, leaving Wu Chenggang, Hu Juncai and others behind him looking at each other.

"What did Ah Fei just said? The manuscript remuneration is 500 yuan, and he also paid 500,000 yuan in advance?" Wu Chenggang pinched himself, then looked at Hu Juncai, wanting to verify from him.

Hu Juncai shook his head repeatedly and said, "I don't know either, A Fei didn't tell me."

Liang Ying murmured to himself: "500,000 yuan is enough to buy a small villa in Kowloon!"

The hype of "Oriental Daily" was very successful this time. A few months ago, Huang Yulang asked Ni Fu to write a novel of 500 yuan with a thousand words, but he paid Ni Fu 240,000 yuan in one lump sum. This time, Kang Jianfei's remuneration was not only equal to Ni Fu, but also received twice as much as Ni Fu's one lump sum.

The Oriental Daily published this news on the front page headline, named Kang Jianfei as a mainlander, and mentioned the last few episodes of "Chu Liuxiang", which was the stand-in for Zheng Shaoqiu. It was reported that Kang Jianfei was a genius who was rare in 50 years. He could act in TV and write novels, which was enough to be comparable to Ni Fu, and his future was definitely brighter than Ni Fu, because Kang Jianfei spent a month in Hong Kong, and his royalties were as good as Ni Fu, who had been in Hong Kong for more than 20 years.

As soon as this news came out, Oriental Daily and Kang Jianfei immediately became the center of the public opinion storm.

Kang Jianfei could imagine the reactions of major newspapers tomorrow. At least half of the media would scold Oriental Daily for doing things randomly. Because Huang Yulang gave Ni Fu a thousand words of 500 yuan in royalties and paid 240,000 yuan in one lump sum, many colleagues criticized him for breaking the rules.

Ni Fu is a well-known novelist in Hong Kong, while Kang Jianfei is just a new writer who has just published a book. It would be strange if other media don’t call him crazy.

However, this kind of "swearing" will not ruin Kang Jianfei's reputation, but will increase his value. For example, Ni Fu was scolded by many media a few months ago and was jealous of him. In the end, the stingy Jin Yong forced Ni Fu to increase the royalties under pressure...

"Oriental Daily" also has many benefits. It not only becomes the focus of public opinion, but continues to increase newspaper sales, but also the high royalties given to Kang Jianfei will also attract a large number of jealous authors to submit their articles.

Go upstairs and enter the room rented by Kang Jianfei. The decoration inside is eye-catching. There are all TVs, refrigerators, and washing machines. All bed sheets and quilts are available, and the room is clean, which makes Liang Ying, who is preparing to clean the house for Kang Jianfei and the others, have nothing to do.

When Kang Jianfei saw Liang Ying checking everywhere, he said, "These sheets are all new. I have hired some workers to clean up the room. Aunt, please sit and rest for a while."

Liang Ying walked around the bedroom, kitchen, bathroom and other places, and exclaimed: "A Fei, this house is at least 800 feet. Is it too big for you two to live in?"

"It's almost the same." Kang Jianfei smiled.

As soon as Hu Juncai entered the room, he was in a state of stagnation. He couldn't bear to put the soft carpet in the living room, for fear of breaking it. Now he only had one thought left in his mind: such a luxurious house is like a palace. If you live in it for a day, even if you die immediately, you won't be in vain.

Wu Ruixue jumped around and looked around in several rooms, but Wu Ruiqing approached Kang Jianfei's ear and whispered: "Cousin, that...you said I'll give it to me..."

Kang Jianfei smiled and took Wu Ruiqing to a bedroom. After closing the door, he took out some money and said, "If you promise, you won't betray you, but now my cousin is useless to take this money. You can take this thousand yuan first, and give the rest to you later, which will save you more money and spend it randomly."

Kang Jianfei promised to give Wu Ruiqing a 10% royalty fee. If it is calculated by 500 yuan in a thousand words, Wu Ruiqing will finally get 75,000 yuan. In addition to the fact that my cousin deserves to help revise the manuscript, it is also considered that Kang Jianfei repays his cousin's family's affection. After all, Wu Chenggang gave him a lot of help after coming to Hong Kong.

Wu Ruiqing didn't think much about it, nor was he afraid that Kang Jianfei would cheat him of the remaining royalties. For a long time, Wu Ruiqing, who only had two yuan in pocket money every day, suddenly received a huge sum of 1,000 yuan, was so beautiful that he even forgot about his surname.

At noon, Zhou Mingfang came over with her child in her arms. Everyone sat down around a table of good dishes to celebrate Kang Jianfei and Hu Juncai's move to a new home.

Halfway through the meal, my cousin, who hadn't spoken much after entering the room, finally spoke, and asked, "A Fei, what are your plans in the future? Like Ni Fu, have you been writing novels?"

Before Kang Jianfei could answer, Liang Ying continued: "It's good to write novels. Look at how good A Fei is, he earned 500,000 in a month. A Fei, my aunt will give you a suggestion, you should refund the rented house and buy a small villa with the 500,000 yuan. Not only can you save a lot of rent every month, you can also have your own house, and the villa will appreciate in the future."

"I will consider it." Kang Jianfei smiled.

Kang Jianfei’s plan for the future has never changed, that is, to open a film company, otherwise it would be a pity that so many movies in his heart would be rotten!

What's more, Kang Jianfei knew nothing about anything except film and television. He didn't know about financial technology, he didn't know when there was a stock market crash, nor did he know when the stock market would surge. He had no interest in doing ordinary business, so he could only make money by making movies honestly.
