Chapter 107 Do you miss me? (Thanks to cthulhuelder for the five thousand points reward)
More than ten days later, on a street in Seoul.
Huang Xu looked at Kim Jong Kook on the stage, singing and dancing hard on the stage, and the corners of his mouth still raised involuntarily.
Although he has already seen Kim Jong Kook's performance, he will still be shocked by the huge contrast when he sees his performance again.
But after he finished singing and the fans took photos, Huang Xu quickly changed his expression and went up to him, and handed over the water in his hand.
"Thank you for your hard work today, Brother Zhong Guo."
"Why are you here?"
Jin Zhongguo took the water from Huang Xu and looked at Huang Xu doubtfully.
His current commercial performance is already his fifth performance today, and this is the first time he has seen Huang Xu appear at the scene.
"Well, this is one of my franchise stores after all. I should have no problem coming here."
Seeing Jin Zhongguo's confused look, Huang Xu spread his hands and said that there was no problem with his presence here.
"No, I mean, this is the fifth store I've been to today. Why didn't I see you in front?"
"It's not a coincidence."
Huang Xu touched his nose and gave his own explanation.
In fact, he didn't plan to attend the store's opening ceremony today. He was here now because he happened to pass by and saw Kim Jong Kook's performance, so he stopped to enjoy it.
However, he couldn't tell Jin Jongguo this. He came here to watch the fun, so after a brief explanation, he quickly changed the subject.
Looking at Kim Jong Kook who was already out of breath and even a little sweaty on his forehead, he started teasing.
"But Brother Zhong Guo, your physical strength is not good. How can you get tired so quickly? Could it be that you had too much fun in the United States a few days ago?"
"Yeah, go up and try singing and dancing for ten minutes, and don't forget, I'm almost forty now."
Kim Jong Kook was not angry at Huang Xu's teasing, but really sighed that he is really older now.
Although today's workload is indeed heavy, in the past, he would not have paid attention to this amount of exercise.
After Jin Jongguo wiped his sweat, he opened the water and took a sip. He moistened his mouth and stopped drinking.
"Fortunately, this is the last one, otherwise I really wouldn't be able to bear it."
He did feel a little tired at this time.
Although he still looks relatively young now, don't forget that he was born in 1976 and is now thirty-six or seventy years old.
Although my current physical strength is due to years of exercise, there is no problem with my physical strength.
But with so many business performances today, the burden is not very light for him.
But now, his attention is not on the physical exertion, but on looking at the Malatang shop, which is already past two o'clock and close to three o'clock, past the normal lunch time, but still basically full.
Although there is no queue now, but at this time, there are still so many people, one can imagine how good the business inside is.
"Xiao Xu, your Malatang shop is still doing well. There were so many people lining up right after it opened."
"That is, when it first opened, many people came to join in the fun. After it opened for a while, there were not so many people."
"No, no, no, you can't say that."
Kim Jong-kook rejected Huang Xu's modesty with a wave of his hand.
"Look at how long the four stores in front of you have been open now. As long as they open their doors now, there will be a queue."
“When there are more shops, there won’t be so many people.”
Huang Xu began to explain his compliment to Kim Jong Kook.
The reason why the shop in front of him is still booming and there are often queues is because there are relatively few shops. After so many shops open today, there won't be so many people there.
"I know, but even if we open twenty more stores, the business will still not be bad. By the way, will you let the third batch join?"
"Let's go, taking advantage of the current boom in the opening of the first batch of franchise stores, we are now preparing to open the third batch of stores. However, the focus this time may not be limited to Seoul, and other cities will also open one after another."
"Well, if I had known that the business would be so good, I should have joined you when you first opened your business."
Jin Jongguo was really jealous when he looked at the current business of the store.
It's not that I was jealous or anything, but that I regretted the way I looked at that time.
After all, he personally witnessed the grand opening of Huang Xu's four directly-operated stores, and even saw the craze it caused on the Internet at that time.
If you had made up your mind to invest at that time, you should have your own share of the stores that are now open.
Seeing Jin Zhongguo's regretful look, Huang Xu couldn't help laughing.
In his previous life, he was known as the Iron Rooster. He even refused to invest because he had huge savings. Kim Jong Kook was also on the hot search list.
Now I actually see that business is doing better now, and I actually have the urge to invest.
This is something Huang Xu would never have thought of.
Even thinking about his performance in some later variety shows made Huang Xu feel like his idol was shattered.
However, looking at Jin Zhongguo who was a little moved, Huang Xu couldn't help but advise:
"Don't worry, Brother Zhong Guo. Once the music restaurant and bar opens, you won't envy the business here."
After all, although the nightlife in South Korea looks very rich, in fact, there are only a few types.
Eat, sing, and then go to various nightclubs.
Otherwise, there are various gyms and other fitness activities.
Really compared with that in China, the entertainment life here is actually not as rich as imagined.
The music restaurant Huang Xu opened with them actually supplemented a shortcoming they were missing.
Although it seems that the business of music restaurants and bars overlaps with places such as nightclubs.
But really speaking, there are still some differences.
Places like nightclubs are suitable for more noisy scenes and are suitable for young people who like liveliness.
The music restaurant and bar are more suitable for those who don't like so much excitement and just like to eat quietly and listen to music.
Without their music restaurants and bars, many young couples would not have so many quiet places suitable for dates to chat, and would have to choose places like coffee shops.
At the same time, Huang Xu also had some thoughts of his own.
He has plans later, and if he wants to bring Tara and the others under his command, he will definitely set up an entertainment company.
But an entertainment company cannot always rely on just a few of them. It needs more artists to fill the gap.
The music restaurant and bar is a suitable place to choose new people.
After all, there are still many underground singers in South Korea who are very capable, just because they have no opportunities and no stage.
Or because of some shortcomings in appearance, they are not liked by these management companies, and they will be reduced to the status of underground singers.
But in real terms, their capabilities are pretty good, and there are also many people who, after the arrival of the mobile Internet era, have slowly become famous and embarked on the road of stars through the trend of self-media.
However, both of them had something to do today. After chatting about the decoration process of the music restaurant and bar, Huang Xu watched Kim Jong Kook leave.
Then Huang Xu looked at the busy shop and the endless flow of people, then turned back to the car and drove towards the company.
When he arrived at the company, he did not go back to the office. Instead, he went directly to the finance department and handed him the contract in his hand.
Then after a brief explanation, he returned to his office.
But before he could sit down and take a sip of water to rest, he saw his uncle Huang Wenfu walking in. "Xiao Xu, I just saw that you got another house purchase contract. Did you buy another house?"
"Yes, uncle, you don't know how good this apartment is. Although it is relatively old, the condition inside is not bad, and the transportation is convenient and life is convenient. The most important thing is that his house also has a basement, which is slightly The renovation can also be rented out”
Then Huang Xu explained in detail to his uncle the situation of purchasing a house that he had just signed this afternoon.
Seeing that Huang Xu was talking very enthusiastically, Huang Wenfu did not interrupt him, but waited for him to finish speaking before telling him the purpose of coming to Huang Xu.
"Xiao Xu, I understand what you are talking about, but does this kind of house still have the potential to appreciate in value?
I have no objection to the new houses you bought earlier, but the house prices of such dilapidated houses can still rise. ”
Huang Wenfu didn't really want to come to Huang Xu today, but during this period, the houses Huang Xu bought were worse than the others, so he came over to ask and see what Huang Xu thought.
After all, he has often paid attention to housing prices in Seoul during this period.
Now almost all experts are saying that housing prices in Seoul have reached their peak and will no longer rise.
That's why he was worried that Huang Xu's full rental business would have problems.
Seeing his uncle's concerned look, Huang Xu smiled indifferently.
"Uncle, if you believe those experts, you might as well believe that I am Qin Shihuang reborn."
After saying that, he pulled Huang Wenfu and walked towards the tea table. Then he boiled water to make tea. He waited until he had made the tea and brewed it for his uncle before he started to explain.
"Uncle, you also know the current situation in South Korea. Although the population is less than 50 million, most of the high-end talents, as well as large companies and multinational companies, are concentrated here. Do you think it will develop according to the current model? Will house prices really fall? ”
"That's right. There are more companies here now?"
"And uncle, don't forget that the better educational resources in South Korea are now concentrated in Seoul. If you have a child at home, where would you want him to receive education?"
When Huang Xu saw his uncle, he seemed to be convinced by himself, so he quickly added jealousy and wanted to convince his uncle as soon as possible.
In fact, these remarks were all what he thought of while making tea.
The reason why he truly believes that housing prices will rise is mainly due to some memories from his past life, otherwise he would not dare to play such a big game.
Only a few days have passed, and the contract just now is already the eleventh house purchase contract he has gotten back, and in the next few days, he will continue to get house purchase contracts back.
He had a budget of one billion won this time, but he has only spent over 600 million won now.
After all, the houses he buys now are basically worth around 200 million won, and each house requires a 30% down payment.
Next, excluding the renovation budget, he can buy at least two more apartments.
Following Huang Xu's persuasion, Huang Wenfu finally stopped asking Huang Xu about buying a house, and instead started asking Huang Xu about another troublesome matter.
"Xiao Xu, will you take your girlfriend back with you during the Chinese New Year?"
Huang Xu had a headache when he heard his uncle's question.
Since Uncle Jean met Goo Hara last time, he told his brother, Huang Xu's father, about Huang Xu's girlfriend.
Although Huang Xu was behind and told them that his girlfriend was not Goo Hara, the two of them forced him to bring his girlfriend over to meet them.
And as the Spring Festival approaches, every time Huang Xu calls back, his father will ask him to take his girlfriend back to celebrate the New Year.
Although Huang Xu explained for a long time, she was busy with work and couldn't delay it for too long if she didn't have time.
According to his father, even if a star is busy with work, he always has time to rest. During his break, just take her back to see him. He doesn't pick the time.
Huang Wenfu looked at Huang Xu's wrinkled face, and he laughed happily.
After all, it is rare to see Huang Xu like this.
But after laughing for a while, he started to ask Huang Xu.
"Xiao Xu, speaking of which, I don't know who your girlfriend is now, so when will you bring her over and let me, my uncle, meet her too."
Huang Wenfu is also really curious now, who is Huang Xu's girlfriend.
He originally thought that the Goo Hara he met last time was Huang Xu's girlfriend. After all, from his perspective, when they met, Goo Hara's eyes were almost fixed on Huang Xu.
And he is actually very satisfied with Goo Hara.
He thought she was Huang Xu's girlfriend, but he said she wasn't Goo Hara, which made him very curious, who is Huang Xu's current girlfriend?
Huang Xu raised his head and looked at his uncle's curious expression. His headache became more intense.
But he had no other choice but to helplessly shake his head and leave a sentence.
"Uncle, we are hiring some people who are professional in decoration."
Before he finished speaking, he escaped from the office.
Huang Wenfu watched Huang Xu run away, but he did not leave in a hurry. Instead, he sat calmly and tasted the tea that Huang Xu had just brewed but had not yet tasted.
And remembering in his mind that Huang Chao had a successful blind date some time ago and brought someone home, he couldn't help but muttered in the direction of Huang Xu's disappearance,
"Xiao Xu, where are you now? When you go back, you will know what hell is."
Huang Xu, who escaped from the company, did not hang out outside, but drove directly back home.
When he opened the door and looked at the empty home, Huang Xu couldn't help but sigh.
He had never felt this lonely before, but during this period, he felt this more and more.
Then he took out his cell phone and sent several messages, but he didn't get a response until he finished his meal.
Looking at the information bar on his phone, he didn't get the information he wanted except for push ads from some software. He sighed even more.
In fact, he also knows that Sunny has a lot of schedule now, and he also understands that the other party's work is of this nature. Once he becomes busy, he will have no time for himself.
But when you actually experience it, you still feel a little uncomfortable.
And during this period of time, besides Sunny, Goo Hara is also very busy during this period of time.
If it was before confirming the relationship with Sunny, Huang Xu would not have felt this lonely at this time.
There is no one when I get home.
Whether you are playing games at home or going out to nightclubs to have fun, it is a good way to spend time.
But things are a little different now. Now, for him, the road of drinking and having fun in nightclubs has been blocked.
As for playing games, now I always feel that something is missing around me when I play.
It’s not that fun anymore.
At the same time, he had a headache when he thought about what his father said about bringing his girlfriend home during the Chinese New Year.
Fortunately, he quickly adjusted his mood, changed his clothes and went to the gym to vent his depressed mood.
However, when he returned home in the early morning after working out, he opened the door and found that the lights that had been turned off when he left home were actually on.
And along with the sound of him opening the door, a familiar greeting came from inside.
"You're back, do you miss me?"
