Chapter 104 Can't Afford to Rent a Good House
"Nanshuangbanna?"
Luo Hui's eyes lit up: "This place is like summer all year round, and there is little rain, which doesn't affect the shooting. It seems really good!"
He patted Zhang Zhiqin on the shoulder: "Yes, Xiao Zhang!"
Zhang Zhiqin smiled, and was also very happy that he could play a role.
Fang Xiaole didn't come to a conclusion so quickly, he thought for a while and said slowly:
"The climate in Nanshuangbanna is indeed good, but is there any farmhouse suitable for the program requirements, and the surrounding village environment?"
Luo Hui also calmed down, thought carefully, nodded and said:
"Yeah, it's two floors high. In addition to housing four permanent guests, there must also be rooms for temporary guests. There must be a larger kitchen, a yard, and small animals such as cats, dogs, chickens and ducks. Only in this way can we reflect the atmosphere of pastoral life.”
Zhang Zhiqin followed, "The yard should also be big enough to accommodate seven or eight people for dinner, and then equipped with a swing, umm..."
"Xiao Fang, how about this."
Luo Hui asked for Fang Xiaole's opinion:
"Let's go to the field to investigate and try to find a place that meets the requirements. If the season in Nanshuangbanna is really suitable, let's just find a suitable place and build a farmhouse now!"
"What Brother Luo said makes sense, we still have to go to the field to see before we can make a decision."
Fang Xiaole agrees.
"Then when are we going? Haha, I've never been to Nanshuangbanna. I heard that the girls there are beautiful and enthusiastic. Tsk tsk tsk, my sniper is already very hungry!"
Zhang Zhiqin's face was full of anticipation, and his saliva was almost drooling.
Luo Hui looked at him with a smile: "Not so soon, there is still a lot of preparations to be done here, and the weekend will be the soonest, and I didn't tell you to go, you have to stay and guard the house."
"Ah?" Zhang Zhiqin's face suddenly collapsed: "Isn't there you? Brother Luo, why do you want me to stay?"
Fang Xiaole couldn't help laughing: "Brother Luo is teasing you, he is the director, of course he can't leave, and you will have to run with me when the time comes."
"Brother Fang, don't worry, I promise to complete the task!" Zhang Zhiqin was suddenly happy.
"Stinky boy, you follow Xiao Fang for work, don't think about picking up girls all day long!" Luo Hui scolded with a smile.
"Director Luo, why aren't you worried about Brother Fang? His looks are the easiest way to attract girls!" Zhang Zhiqin objected.
"Xiao Fang is not like you, so he won't secretly fall in love through making a show!" Luo Hui trusted Fang Xiaole very much.
"Cough cough." Fang Xiaole coughed awkwardly: "It's getting late, let's all go home and rest, there are still many things to do tomorrow."
"Okay, come back."
"Then I'm leaving, bye!"
…
In the next two days, Fang Xiaole devoted himself to the preparations for the intense program.
Although the location for the recording of the show has not been selected yet, there is still a lot of work to prepare for a new variety show.
Fang Xiaole is both the chief planner and the assistant director. He has the heaviest list on his shoulders, and he has been extremely busy these two days.
Busy until Friday, most of the previous work was on track, and the candidates for the two young guests were basically confirmed.
One is an old acquaintance, Xu Zhenzhen, who has been to two consecutive episodes of "Super Challenge".
She is a young actress who has just turned 18 this year. She has an innocent personality and is popular with the audience. She also has a schedule recently. When the program team contacted her manager, the other party readily agreed.
The other is Dong Xiaopeng, also an actor, about twenty years old.
However, this guy is a bit older. He was nominated for Best Actor in the Sea of Clouds Film Festival, and he participated in a movie that won the Best Picture Award at a foreign film festival. The young actor-to-be is considered a leader among the new generation of male actors. .
It took a lot of trouble to invite Dong Xiaopeng. The manager of the other party thought that "Longing for Life" was an unpopular show.
And the reward was not high, so I refused at first.
Fortunately, Hong Sanshi and He Tong had a wide circle of people, and both of them were very familiar with Dong Xiaopeng. After some mediation and deception, Dong Xiaopeng finally agreed to the invitation of the program group.
In this way, everything is ready, just wait for the location of the farmhouse to be determined.
Zhang Zhiqin quickly booked a flight ticket to Nanshuangbanna on Sunday. This time, Fang Xiaole and him will go. If the location is confirmed, the big troops will follow.
"Xiao Fang, how are the preparations for the new program going?"
At noon on Saturday, Fang Xiaole received a call from Li Wan.
"Director Li, it's going well. Tomorrow, Zhang Zhiqin and I will go to Nanshuangbanna to inspect the recording location."
"Nanshuangbanna? The scenery is very good. This time, you and Xiao Zhang can travel at public expense. If Su Yu knows it, she must be envious."
Li Wan seemed to be in a good mood, and made a rare joke. Fang Xiaole didn't know why Director Li kept mentioning Su Yu in front of her, so he had to change the topic with a smile:
"By the way, Director Li, have you finished the third phase of "Super Challenge"? How is the effect?"
Li Guan paused, and said in a slightly weird voice:
"It's already done, the show will be aired tonight, you won't forget, right?"
oops!
Only then did Fang Xiaole remember that today is Saturday, which is the time for "Super Challenge" to air. I've been so busy recently that I even forgot the time.
"How can I? I'm planning to take time to look at the house in the afternoon, and go back to watch the show in the evening!"
Fang Xiaole hastened to smooth things over, for fear that Director Li would misunderstand that he had forgotten his roots.
"Looking at the house?" Li Wan asked strangely.
"I'm planning to rent a house closer to Taili. I've been too busy recently. I just have time this afternoon. I've asked an agent to take a look."
Fang Xiaole got his salary in the first few days, and for more than half a month, he was paid according to the position planned by the vice president, so the salary level has taken a big leap compared to before, so he has the confidence to consider renting a house again.
"It's better to be closer to Taili, but the rent nearby is not cheap. If you have any difficulties, just ask, and I can help you find a solution." Li Wan said.
"Thank you Director Li."
"Okay, that's it."
Li Wan was also very busy there, so he hung up the phone quickly.
In the afternoon, Fang Xiaole left work early and went to an intermediary company he had agreed with. The intermediary showed him several houses.
He is quite satisfied with each set, especially one set in a community called Lanheng Garden. The environment of the community is good, the houses are bright and spacious, and it is less than one kilometer away from Apple Terrace. It is almost tailor-made for him.
Except for the price.
There is a bustling commercial area near Apple Terrace, and the rent for one month here is almost equal to Fang Xiaole's salary for a whole month, so he really can't bear it.
Here, Xiao Le finally understood why Li Wan would open up if he had trouble renting a house. Director Li had already expected that he could not afford to rent the houses around here!
However, Li Wan has already helped him a lot, and Fang Xiaole is too embarrassed to bother others. The matter of renting a house can only be discussed after returning from Nanshuangbanna.
