Chapter 121: Under heavy pressure, the house looks like a golden cast
Ye Bai didn't know what was going on in the live broadcast room, but he hadn't finished speaking about Professor Liu's speech just now.
"Think about it, if you don't have the help of your parents and rely entirely on your own savings and abilities to buy a house, can you afford it?"
Is it affordable?
These four words echoed in everyone's ears, and everyone remained silent.
However, they answered this question with uniform body movements.
Within sight, everyone was shaking their heads in unison, not just once but dozens of times.
This shows that everyone knows the answer to this question.
Professor Liu Ting began to feel nervous when he saw the actions of the audience.
Just when he was restless, he suddenly heard Ye Bai's question again, which shocked him all over.
"Professor Liu, do you know why those young people are so anxious to buy a house?"
Why?
Professor Liu Ting calmed down and thought for a moment, drank some water and cleared his throat before slowly answering.
"Young people definitely buy a house to live in. On the other hand, buying a house is equivalent to investment, because the biggest feature of real estate is its function of preserving and increasing value."
After saying that, he calmed down and looked at Professor Li Pengfei who was looking at him from a distance rather proudly.
It seems to be saying, Professor Li, don’t worry, I’m here!
After hearing Professor Liu's answer, Ye Bai lowered his head slightly, and the broken hair on his forehead just covered his eyes, making it difficult to see his eyes clearly.
However, the sneer at the corner of his mouth became even more obvious.
"No, this is not the fundamental reason. If you only live there yourself, you can also rent a house."
"The fundamental reason why they are anxious to buy a house is actually very simple. They are forced to do so!"
Forced, what do you mean by this?
When Professor Liu and Professor Li heard the reason explained by Ye Bai, they both looked puzzled, and they simultaneously locked their eyes on Ye Bai.
Forced by whom?
They didn't understand why Ye Bai said such a sentence, and they couldn't understand it.
Many young people at the scene were also aroused to seek knowledge because of this sentence. They were looking forward to what Ye Bai would say next.
Even the host Yang Dan was stunned on the stage at this time. She had just bought a house, and the reasons behind buying a house, if analyzed in depth, seemed to be exactly what Ye Bai said...
The audience in the live broadcast room stared at Ye Bai's figure in the video, and put their thoughts into the barrage on the screen.
"I don't know about other people's situations, but I didn't buy a house voluntarily. I was forced to do so."
"Although Brother Ye hasn't elaborated yet, I feel that he has already hit the point."
"Ye Bai's thinking and logic are so rigorous and he can always see through phenomena to see the essence."
"Experts have always looked down on us grassroots people with a superior gaze. How do they know what we have to do?"
"To be honest, I think we buy a house not because we want to buy it, but because we are forced to buy it because of too much pressure!"
On-site, expert seat.
Professor Liu Ting moved his lips as if he wanted to ask a question. Ye Bai shook his head and added first.
"You may be curious, why do I say this? Why do I say that young people are forced to buy houses?"
"Let me give you an example. I believe that after everyone listens to this example, you will make your own decision."
"I have a friend who joined a small and medium-sized enterprise after graduating from college a few years ago. He is doing a job he likes, and his monthly salary is about four to five thousand after tax. He lives very happily every day and is in good spirits.
Very good too.”
When describing this scene, Ye Bai's eyes softened.
It was as if while telling the story, I also saw the happy smiling face of that friend every day...
"Later, when I reached the age of marriage and was urged to get married by my parents and relatives all day long, I found a girlfriend and fell in love. When it was time to prepare for marriage, the pressure doubled."
"Why? Because the girl's parents have requirements. If you want to get married, you must have material foundation. Which of the house, car, betrothal gift, etc., does not require money?"
"Finally, with the help of his parents, the two old people scraped together everything, spent most of their life savings, gave him a down payment, and added a bank loan to buy a house."
"But, what happens after that? After marriage, he can only rely on his salary of four to five thousand yuan to repay the mortgage. He is struggling every month. Not to mention how miserable his life is."
Having said this, Ye Bai paused, as if he was feeling sorry for his friend's situation.
However, in this gap of time, Professor Li did not forget to retort at every opportunity, hoping to take the opportunity to save some face and increase the persuasiveness of his own point of view.
"Although this kind of life is stressful, at least he has obtained a house. Suffering is just suffering for a while. Isn't it okay to grit your teeth and get through it?"
Hearing Professor Li say this lightly again, Ye Bai glanced at him and then looked away.
Now he will no longer be stimulated by the other party's unthinking words.
There is a saying: If a dog bites you, you can't argue with the dog!
"It's so easy to say, ha!"
Ye Bai added an adjective to Professor Li's light words.
"Professor Li, are you really in a good mood? Or are you just pretending to be dumbfounded? Do you know how many young people have invested their whole lives in buying a house? This is the hardship you said.
For a while?”
"After buying a house, decades of anxiety and stress sweep through the hearts of young people like a tide, leaving them with no chance to breathe."
"Under such high pressure, young people dare not resign, do not dare to get sick, and do not dare to venture out. They have to look at the boss's face when going to work, and live a compromised life every day. Is this kind of life a life worth pursuing and admiring?"
Speaking of this, Ye Bai's tone rose a bit, and his eyes were full of helplessness and bitterness.
"With such high housing prices, the house is no longer the home that people dream of, but a golden cage, imprisoning young people who were originally full of dreams and hopes, turning them into soulless bodies."
After the words fell, Ye Bai's voice stopped suddenly, leaving everyone with endless thoughts.
The audience at the scene was shocked by these cruel realities one after another.
It’s not that I don’t know, it’s that no one has ever analyzed them so thoroughly on such occasions and in such a way!
In the silence, the pictures that emerged in everyone's mind were different.
But...
But it gives them a sense of familiarity that they can relate to!
