Chapter 1250: Your hobbies are very wasteful

In the distance, there is nothing but distance.

But the path that should be taken must always be taken. In such a matter, what needs to be achieved is actually the difference between reality and ideals. The poet's ideal may be great and innocent, but there is a gap between it and reality after all.

Therefore, poets and reality are always somewhat out of tune. For example, regarding the courtyard houses in Beijing, on the one hand, it is the need of the growing city, and it is also necessary to transform some courtyard houses. On the other hand, it is to protect the culture of the capital. After all, the courtyard houses represent the culture of the capital. In this way No matter how it is said, it always expresses the imprint of history in it.

Every courtyard house in Beijing tells a story, but we cannot protect every one of them. This is the paradox between dream and reality.

It is a dream to protect all courtyard houses, but the reality is that due to urban development, some courtyard houses will inevitably be demolished. Of course, the courtyards Ye Ming chose were all in protected areas, so there was no risk of them being demolished.

Donghai Film and Television, at this time, Zhang Guoli came over with his wife Deng Jie, and Ye Ming came out to greet him personally. In fact, Ye Ming rarely came to the company under normal circumstances, and even if he came, he would rush here to take a look. Then leave directly. This is not to say that there is no such thing.

Therefore, there are very few opportunities for him to stay in the company all day. Therefore, some people in the company know the boss Ye Ming, and even say they know the boss's whereabouts, but it is not easy to find the boss. . Especially new employees will not easily see Ye Ming, the boss.

Therefore, seeing Ye Ming actually say that he came out to greet the guests in person, this shocked some people in the company. Some old people also greeted the new colleagues one after another and said, "Did you see that dad came out in person?

That is to say, when a few good friends such as Zhao Wei, Su Youpeng, etc. come, the boss will actually come to greet them in person. Who is coming this time? "

Zhang came over to see Deng Jie. After seeing the person coming, many people knew who it was. Although Zhang Guoli and his wife were wearing sunglasses, these two people who were familiar with the circle were simply too familiar with them.

Of course, this Brilliant Film and Television, no matter what it is, is always a formal company. The employees in the company include many celebrities, and even Wang Baoqiang is a star now.

Therefore, regarding such an issue, seeing Zhang Guoli and his wife arriving did not make the employees of Huihuang Film and Television scream. It’s just that the arrival of Zhang Guoli and his wife is rather strange. Does the company have any cooperation with Zhang Guoli and his wife at this time?

Ye Ming personally came out to greet Zhang Guoli, and immediately walked over and said: "Ye Zi, you see you are too polite. You came out to greet us and just asked the greeter to take us to your office. You seem to be a little shy when you come out." It makes me feel a little embarrassed.”

Ye Ming laughed and said, "Teacher Guoli, you are so polite. Come to my place. Of course I will come out to welcome you in person."

Zhang Guoli immediately said unhappily: "What do you call Teacher Guoli? Just call me Brother Guoli. Gangzi and I are buddies, and you and Gangzi are also friends. We are not outsiders, so there is no need to be so polite. Your sister-in-law Deng Jie, I don’t need any introduction.”

Naturally, Deng Jie needs no further introduction. She is a very legendary woman. One role of Wang Xifeng is enough for her to write a significant mark in the history of Chinese TV dramas. In fact, Deng Jie's subsequent TV series were all green leaves, while Zhang Guoli was the red flower.

This time Ye Ming personally took Zhang Guoli and his wife to see the courtyard. They looked at four courtyards in the morning. Finally, Zhang Guoli chose the third courtyard. When he came back again, Zhang Guoli said with great satisfaction: "Brother Ye, this courtyard I think that of the two courtyards, the one in the front is magnificent, with mountains and rivers, and the one in the back is more shabby. It just so happens that my TV series needs these two completely opposite courtyards, and you have them both here. "

At this time, Ye Ming said without hesitation: "Okay, if Brother Guoli thinks it's good, then there will be no problem. Here is the key, you can just take it back by yourself. After the shooting, remember to bring the key to me when you go back to the company." That’s it, if I’m not here, I’ll give it to Sister Fang Fang.”

Sister Fang Fang is responsible for running these courtyards. Naturally, these courtyards that Ye Ming has built over the years cannot be idle.

One is waste, and the other is that if a house is old and empty, it will slowly become decayed, which means it will lose its popularity. In other words, the house will be damaged very quickly.

Therefore, there must always be people living in a courtyard house, and there must always be people active in it. Ye Ming also set up a team specifically for this courtyard, which is responsible for running these courtyards. Some are rented out to some units in other places as office spaces. If the courtyards in the capital are used as offices in Beijing, it is quite respectable. Others are leased to hotels.

Of course, more of them are rented to the crew and used as a shooting venue. In this case, it means that there are enough funds to maintain these courtyards. Now these courtyards do not require Ye Ming to invest a penny at all. On the contrary It will bring Ye Ming an income of one to two million every year. This is because Ye Ming is more restrictive about the use of the yard. Otherwise, the income will be even higher.

Regarding such a good question, Ye Ming is very good at doing this kind of business operation. He proposed some models and handed them over to Sister Fang Fang. The rest is for Sister Fang Fang to find specialized talents to do the work. , generally you will not lose money.

The courtyard chosen by Zhang Guoli was one of the courtyards that Ye Ming rented to the crew.

At this moment, Deng Jie looked at the courtyard in front and behind, and then said curiously: "It seems that according to the rules, this is an outhouse of the palace. The front door is very powerful, but looking at the back, it seems to be dilapidated and a bit outrageous." , the difference between this before and after is too big."

Ye Ming said with a smile: "Sister-in-law, when I bought it, I actually asked a question like this, but the work unit said that when steel was being smelted in this place, the back was demolished and the front was demolished. Unless it was used as a street office, it wouldn’t be preserved as it is now.”

There is really no place to reason about this matter. In fact, it is quite rare that this courtyard can be preserved to this day. Luo Tian also intentionally wanted to preserve some historical things, so the courtyard was not restored. Instead, it was directly reinforced and tidied up according to its original appearance and then rented out.

Needless to say, some crew members really like the style of a royal palace in the front, but the courtyard in the back is like a beggar's den. If you look like this, you don't need to move the location, you can just go through a door.

Zhang Guoli said with a smile: "The key is that there is a shop outside. When we shoot this TV series, most of the scenes are shot inside the shop. The shop is right outside the door. This saves us a lot of trouble. Ye Zi , do you know who owns that shop? Help me contact it, I also want to rent it together."

At this time, Zhang Guoli can be said to be very satisfied. Not only did he find the courtyard, but he also found a very suitable shop. In this case, in such a matter, there are actually more Speaking of a problem like this, he was lucky enough to meet Ye Ming and find a suitable place like this without any effort. It would be strange to be unhappy.

No matter what happened at this moment, Ye Ming looked a little proud and said: "I own four shops on the street outside. Normally, they are leased to merchants, but if there is a film crew who wants to use them, I have the right to take it back, and of course I will compensate the merchant based on the number of days the crew uses it. This is already clearly stated in the contract. If Brother Guoli wants to use it, he just needs to let him know a week in advance."

Zhang Guoli was stunned for a moment, and then said in great surprise: "This is something you have done quite well. I heard from Gangzi that you like to collect courtyard houses, but I didn't expect that you like to collect courtyard houses like this. But it’s quite a waste of money. Besides, you also own the shop. I guess you’re the only one doing this in the entertainment industry, right?”

Ye Ming's move indeed made people feel a kind of unspeakable surprise. What exactly did Ye Ming think about? This collection of courtyard houses was an act of a prodigal with absolute strength.

After hearing this, Ye Ming explained formally: "This matter, at this time, is actually just a small hobby of mine. Some stars like cars, some like clothes, and some like electronic products. , I’m talking about it anyway, on a problem like this, it’s just a small hobby, and the rest is no big deal.”

Although Ye Ming is not saying that smoking and drinking are not related at all, no matter how you smoke or drink, you are not addicted. It is purely a normal interaction. If someone gives you a cigarette at a party, then Regarding a question like this, do you want to take it up or not? If you say you won't take it, it's obviously polite. This is a relatively taboo behavior in interpersonal relationships.

But if you take it over, it will be even more embarrassing if you don't know how to smoke. Therefore, it is relatively easy to leave a good impression if necessary.

Of course, according to Ye Ming's status, there are not many people who are qualified to give him cigarettes. Anyway, there are no bad habits. At this time, Ye Ming has such a collecting habit. Siheyuan, although it is said that the collection of Siheyuan was indeed a waste of money at the beginning, but at this time, Ye Ming no longer needs Siheyuan. He spent money to maintain it, but he was able to make a profit for Ye Ming.

At this moment, Zhang Guoli nodded and said: "That's true, in life, you always have to have a few hobbies, otherwise, this life will be too pale.

Don’t worry, I will notify you in advance when shooting begins. "

This contract will naturally be signed, and this courtyard and shop will never be used in vain. Ye Ming will not say this, because saying this is equivalent to a slap in the face. Once the crew is assembled, they can If you have money to rent a place, the cost is not low anyway if it is somewhere in Photography City. And Zhang Guoli had no intention of not paying him. He said with a smile: "As for my feelings, I will send someone to your company to sign the contract."

Even if this is agreed upon, we are waiting here for Zhang Guoli's movie to start shooting. After that, we can just clean up and it will be the filming set. But now that Zhang Guoli has found a place, he feels more relaxed. Because if you can't find a suitable place like this in the capital, it will be quite troublesome. This time, you don't have to go anywhere else.

Therefore, in such a situation, Zhang Guoli was naturally very happy.

Two days later, Feng Xiaogang met Zhang Guoli at a party, and he subconsciously asked a question: "Guoli, how is your venue going? Is there any suitable place for you at Ye Ziyi?"

There are more Yeming Courtyards, but it’s hard to say whether they really meet Zhang Guo’s needs.

Zhang Guoli nodded and said: "Of course, what you recommended, Gangzi, is indeed good. We went to four places and found the yard I wanted. And there are shops on the street outside this place. , these shops are also owned by Ye Ming, so even if I go out and want to find a shop, it will save time at a time like this. These things collected by Ye Ming really make me What a surprise."

Collecting courtyard houses, and collecting so many of them, naturally attracted the attention of others. Feng Xiaogang knew this situation directly, so he was not surprised to hear this. He immediately said: "What about the character issue? Have you talked to Ye Zi about it? Is it difficult to understand that he didn't agree to it?"

Zhang Guoli shook his head at this moment and said: "That's not the case, but I also thought about this at the time. I went there for the venue, and it was inappropriate to talk about the character. I planned to find a special time to talk to Ye Ming about these things. of."

I don’t know why, but in such a situation, Zhang Guoli actually thought that at such a time, he would ask Ye Ming to perform. What if it didn’t become popular?

Of course, now that the incident in the yard has happened, everyone's relationship has improved and I'm closer, so it's more appropriate to talk about it now. (To be continued)
