Chapter 370 Decision
To be honest, comparing the Zhenlu Demon City with Mingcheng in Chu Yu's hometown, Chu Yu felt that living in a place like his hometown was more comfortable.
Firstly, he is used to living there, and it must be hard to adapt to the food and customs. Secondly, he does not particularly like liveliness, and in the Magic City, it is difficult to find a place that is not lively, and it is possible to go out and take a car.
Just a few hours passed, and this place was too big.
But there is no way. Whether it is Chu Yu's animation business or comics business, Magic City is the core of the industry in the entire Dragon Kingdom. Therefore, unless Chu Yu wants to retire, he feels that he should basically settle down in Magic City.
So in fact, whether it was for his own selfish reasons, wanting Gu Yan to come and live with him, or for the convenience of working in the future, it was imperative for Chu Yu to buy a house in Shanghai.
And the most important thing is that Chu Yu is very rich now. Even buying one or two houses in Shanghai is no longer a big problem for him.
After all, there may be many people in Shanghai with assets worth hundreds of millions, but the number of people like him who have deposited hundreds of millions in the bank and have so much cash is undoubtedly much smaller than the former.
As for money, if it is just deposited in a bank and loaned out to earn interest, it will undoubtedly lose its meaning.
Of course, Chu Yu is not a fool, nor does he have the idea of a nouveau riche because of his sudden wealth. Although he is rich now, he is undoubtedly far behind the real rich people, and it is impossible for him to have more than 200 million.
It would be silly to use it to buy a mansion.
Therefore, when it comes to buying a house, Chu Yu estimates that he will spend one-ninth of his current assets, which is a budget of less than 30 million. No matter how high it is, he will not consider it.
Huang Ming also looked envious after hearing Chu Yu's request.
Thirty million is one-ninth of Chu Yu's assets, but when he takes into account the assets left to him by his parents plus the savings he has accumulated over the years and the money he made with Chu Yu, it is only so much.
Recalling that when I first met Chu Yu, Chu Yu was still a young boy wearing online shopping clothes, but now
Huang Ming looked at Chu Yu, and he didn't seem to have changed much.
"Do you have any requirements for the address?" Huang Ming asked.
"It's better to stay as close to the center of the city as possible! After all, several large comic companies and animation companies in the city are there. If you are close, you don't have to travel for half a day if something happens!"
"Are there any requirements for a house, school district, etc.?" Huang Ming asked.
"School district?" Chu Yu was stunned when he heard this, and then immediately shook his head.
"I am still a child, why do I have to think so much? I will buy it if I have a requirement in the future. For now, I just want to live comfortably!"
Are you embarrassed to say that you are still a child? How shameless, children in their twenties are so handsome!
Huang Ming complained silently in his heart.
"Then your request will be easy to handle!" Huang Ming breathed a sigh of relief.
"Judging from the current housing prices in Magic City, if you don't have to live in the most central location, but just in that area, your budget is enough to buy a single-family villa!"
"It just so happens that I have a few friends who are also engaged in this industry. If you are okay, I will call them right away to check!"
"No problem, you can ask whatever you want, but my request is to buy a renovated house. After all, I don't have the time or energy to take care of these things by myself. If I have some time, I can work and earn money for a house."
."
"Besides, I don't know much about this business, and I'm afraid of being cheated. Otherwise, I wouldn't trouble you!"
"That's no problem! Anyway, you are so rich that you can live in a rented house here before you think about buying a house. I also understand that you are not a particularly picky person. You will go with me in the next few days.
Let’s go to the Magic City!” Huang Ming said with a smile.
"Running to the Demon City?" Chu Yu looked confused.
"Let's go see the house!" Huang Ming said speechlessly.
"You're not so lazy that I'm going to help you take a look! Even though I know you're rich, at least you shouldn't treat tens of millions of dollars like something worth a few thousand dollars, okay?"
Huang Ming was very fast, and Chu Yu was not one to hesitate.
In the next few days, Chu Yu followed Huang Ming's friends on a house-viewing trip that looked cool but was actually tiring.
After running for several days, Huang Ming was exhausted. The houses he took to see all met Chu Yu's requirements. Whether it was decoration, location, or living environment, they were far beyond Chu Yu's imagination.
After all, although Chu Yu can be considered a small tycoon now, he has basically lived an ordinary life for the past twenty years. In his imagination, the big house may just be bigger, but in fact, he went shopping
Only later did he realize that it was poverty that had limited his imagination in the past, and that the life of a rich person was not dull and boring at all.
Chu Yu decided to close the account of Zhu Yiyi that he followed on the Internet.
"How's it going? Which of the villas we've been looking at these days do you think is more suitable for you?" Huang Ming asked. He didn't want to go shopping anymore, he was too tired.
"They're all good," Chu Yu said.
""Huang Ming.
"That's why I asked you to choose! The price is within your budget anyway, and the location is not much different. Anyway, you are not familiar with demons, so it makes a difference where you live!"
"Then let's do the same thing we watched the afternoon before yesterday!" After thinking about it for a while, Chu Yu made a decision in his mind.
"The one with six bedrooms and nine living rooms, which costs more than 23.5 million?" Huang Ming asked.
"Well, that's it!" Chu Yu confirmed.
"I'm also tired of shopping. Anyway, it's pretty much the same. To me, the only difference is that I'm very satisfied or more satisfied. They're both more comfortable than any house I've lived in before, so I don't have to worry about it anymore!"
"I thought you would choose the one with the swimming pool, after all, you stood there and watched it for a long time!" Huang Ming was relieved when he heard this.
"The main thing is that the traffic around there is better! And there is a police station within 200 meters, so I feel more at ease! In the movies, the rich people always have people break into their houses and kill them, and they have some psychological shadow. And the house with the swimming pool you mentioned, I
The reason why I stood looking at the swimming pool for a long time was because I remembered a movie I watched in which a rich man was held in his swimming pool and donated. I would not consider that house!" Chu Yu said casually.
Is that so?
Huang Ming had a strange expression. He really didn't know what Chu Yu was thinking about all day. He thought Chu Yu was standing there looking at the swimming pool because he wanted to swim with Gu Yan in the room. It turned out that he
Are you standing there thinking about this kind of thing?
"Okay, if you are sure, I will ask my friend to contact the developer. I will feel more at ease now that you have settled in the Magic City!" Huang Ming said cheerfully.
"What's wrong with you?" Chu Yu asked doubtfully.
"I'm afraid you'll run away! One day, like my rich friends, they feel that their work is meaningless, so they travel around the world and commit suicide in various extremes, and then some of them donate." Huang Ming said seriously.
"I'm still waiting to create a better future with you, realize our life ideals in the Dragon Kingdom Animation Market, and make a lot of money on the way!"
Huang Ming spoke very straightforwardly, but Chu Yu liked to get along with people like him. After all, not only was he not tired, but he also found him a bit funny.
"Then what do you need to do after contacting the developer?"
"Of course you have to pay. You pay the full amount anyway. It will cost you so much money to make an appointment with your bank. Just go through the procedures then. It will probably take only a few weeks for everything to be settled!"
"
After the time for buying a house was temporarily set, Chu Yu continued to return to his daily work.
For him now, after the second serialization of JoJo, the reviews of comics are slowly rising. Those who understand comics who are not suitable for this style have left, and those who remain are those who think Jojo is a good work.
.
Although the plot and rhythm of JoJo's second part are certainly not as good as those of the third, it is much better than the first.
Now Chu Yu's career has reached a bottleneck period. In terms of comics, although he is already one of the top cartoonists in the Dragon Kingdom, he is still not as good as the seniors in the comics industry in the Dragon Kingdom. He is now only working in Fenglan Comics.
There is no pressure to serialize the prequel of Jojo, but if you wait until the serialization of the first and second parts of Jojo is over, and wait until the third part is officially published in Tianji Comics’ flagship magazine, Xuanjing Hou
The competition that Chu Yu faces is not that simple. Tianji Comics is one of the two strongest comic companies in the Magic City. It can be said that it basically represents the highest level of the Dragon Kingdom comics industry.
Xuanjing, a periodical, sells up to 16 million copies per issue. Any cartoonist who can serialize comics in it is definitely an unknown person. If Chu Yu wants to do something in Tianji Comics Club, he will have to break out.
With such fame, ordinary comics are definitely not qualified, but will the third part of the Jojo series be acclimatized after it is finally serialized, or will it set off a craze in the Dragon Kingdom like the Jojo series in the parallel world? Chu Yu really wants to know the answer.
.
In the animation industry, Chu Yu faces a similar situation. Although Puella Magi Madoka Magica won the title of the most popular animation of the year last year, which made Chu Yu famous, the historical performance of Dragon Kingdom animation has not changed.
It’s not that exaggerated. In the past ten years, there have been works in the animation industry in Ryugo that have better results than Puella Magi Madoka Magica. Chu Yu’s popularity in the animation industry is also not as good as that of the producers of those works. It’s a bit worse.
The precipitation of time.
Those people haven't retired yet, they just haven't been very active in recent years. Many Dragon Kingdom animation fans are thinking about them.
If Chu Yu wants to further his influence, it would be perfect to rely on a long-form animation like Lelouch of the Rebellion, where the protagonist is both evil and middle-aged, and the plot is refreshing.
It can be said that this year is a critical year for Chu Yu. Not only did he change the comic club and get a girlfriend, but also if Chu Yu wants to go further in the animation and comics world, this may be the year.
Although Chu Yu has a relatively free day now, there is already a sign in his heart that a storm is coming.
