Chapter 5 Buying a Domain Name
Of course not telling the truth.
If his parents knew that he was going to spend 300,000 yuan to buy a string of English letters online, they would break his legs.
Even though the family has some assets, it's not enough to be so wasteful.
They don't believe anything about domain names or investments. At least before Gu Wei makes money on his own, his parents won't believe in his investment ability.
What should we do then? It’s easy.
If you ask a student what is the easiest way to ask his family for money, the answer is for studying, tutoring, buying books, and learning materials.
If this is the reason, 9 out of 10 parents will agree, and even if the remaining one has no money in his pocket, he will find a way to give it.
Of course, Gu Wei didn’t use these reasons.
He studied acting, which is also an art subject. His parents knew that studying art cost money. When he was in his senior year of high school, he hired a training teacher to help him prepare for the art exam, and it cost hundreds of thousands of yuan.
"Mom, what are you doing?" Gu Wei called his mother.
"I'm shopping with your Aunt Wang. How are you eating at school lately? Are you short of money?"
As soon as the phone was connected, my mother started asking about my well-being.
"Mom, I'm doing fine at school and eating well. Don't worry. There's something I want to tell you."
"Tell me, what's wrong, son? Does he have a girlfriend?" The mother looked curious.
"It's not my girlfriend. A while ago, a classmate of ours recommended some people from my class to audition for a new drama crew.
There is a very important supporting role in this, and I tried it out quite well.
But after the casting, I heard from the assistant director that if I wanted to be in the show, I had to give him a gift."
Gu Wei paused after he finished speaking.
"Mom, tell me, should I give this gift?"
Mom hesitated for 2 seconds.
"Son, I don't understand much about the entertainment industry, but if you think this opportunity is important to you, then I have to give you this gift. What if you miss the opportunity and it hinders your future?"
Mom's tone was very firm
“How much does the director want?”
Gu Wei replied, "What he meant was that he wanted 200,000 yuan. As long as the money is in place, the role will definitely be mine."
"No problem, I'll give you 300,000 yuan. As for the rest of the money, when you get to the crew, you can build good relationships with your colleagues and treat them to meals more often. If the food and accommodation conditions are not good, you can buy your own meals. Do you understand?" said the mother.
"Mom, I get it. Don't worry, I will study hard and act well. Maybe before I graduate, your son will become a big star."
"You little brat, just daydreaming. Just focus on filming well and having a good future. Don't be too ambitious."
Mom laughed.
"Got it, Mom. I'm hanging up now."
"Take care of yourself and eat well."
The money arrived in the card in less than half a day, and my father also called me.
Then came another round of instructions.
After comforting my parents, I waited for news from the domain name agent.
The 300,000 yuan from home plus the money I had on hand totaled more than 440,000 yuan, which was enough.
A day later, the broker from the domain name repurchase service provider called me.
"Mr. Gu, I have good news for you. We have already reached an agreement with the domain name holder and the deal can be concluded for 300,000 yuan.
If it is convenient for you, you can bring your valid ID to our company to handle the domain name transfer procedures and sign the corresponding contract.
"Thank you very much. I'll go there at 2 o'clock this afternoon," Gu Wei said after thinking for a while.
"Looking forward to your arrival, Mr. Gu."
In the afternoon, I went to the domain name repurchaser to complete the formalities. The domain name purchase fee plus the agency service fee was less than 400,000 yuan in total.
Now Gu Wei didn't have much money left.
After the money was swiped away, Gu Wei took a special look at the attribute panel and found that the [Experience Column] had not changed.
Focusing on the [Experience Column], a message came: [All commercial activities for profit do not count towards experience. Personal spending only counts towards experience once.]
I understand. This means that buying stocks or investing in other companies will no longer be considered consumption.
On the contrary, buying a house, although also aiming for appreciation, is considered experience.
However, if you buy a house and then sell it and use the money again, the experience will not be counted.
This is good. Although it is difficult to gain experience, being a status refresher is something that countless people envy.
The domain name is already in hand, which is like holding a golden egg in your hand, just waiting for the golden hen to hatch.
——
When I returned to school in the afternoon, Nazha just came back from outside, which was double happiness.
Eat together in the evening and exercise together.
The clouds and rain have just stopped.
"Honey, why are you so awesome today?" Nazha said in a sweet voice.
"Because I haven't seen my beautiful Zaza for a long time, I miss her so much."
"What? I've only been gone for a few days, how can it be so long?"
"One day without seeing you feels like three years have passed. Calculate how many years have passed since we last met," Gu Wei said formally.
"You're so annoying, so smooth-talking."
As the end of the semester approached, Nazha signed with a new company and had more work to do, so she didn't spend much time in school.
Occasionally when he returned to school, Gu Wei would naturally take Nazha out to play. The two of them would stick together all day long, and naturally there would be fights at night.
"Naza, you are so beautiful, so kind, so gentle, so tolerant, and so mature."
Gu Wei held Nazha's face, looked into her eyes and said affectionately.
"Hate it, why are you saying such cheesy things?"
"Baby, can you please repeat what you just said?"
"You tease me, I won't tell you" Nazha refused
"Okay, Nazha, can you tell me once more?" Gu Wei continued to tease.
"Okay, I'll say it again," Nazha hesitated for a moment and then said in a coquettish voice.
"I am very beautiful, very kind, very gentle, very tolerant, and very mature."
After saying that, her face turned red again.
Looking at the cute Nazha, Gu Wei couldn't help but hold her little face and gave her a gentle kiss.
Silly Nazha, it seems that you are really in love. This video of yours was also a big black spot in your previous life.
My ex-boyfriend in my previous life was with me when we were just in college, but we broke up not long after that.
Later, when Nazha became famous, her ex-boyfriend posted this video to gain popularity, which really hurt her.
This is Nazha. I am not afraid of your criticism or cyber-bullying. It doesn’t matter if I don’t have any works. I am just beautiful and my face is enough.
If this happened to another female celebrity, there would probably be no such person. In the later period, Nazha no longer had much career ambition and just wanted to live her life. She didn't care whether she had any works or not. She just wanted to fall in love.
Even when Zhang Tianai tore apart the scumbag, Nazha had to come out to clarify, saying that she didn't know the scumbag had a girlfriend. Sister, let me help you to expose him.
The more I want to fall in love, the more likely I am to meet scumbags.
Gu Wei got the upper hand at this time in my life, so at least the negative information about this video has been eliminated.
But when asked whether Gu Wei is a scumbag, Gu Wei said that he is definitely not. When they were in love, Gu Wei was so generous that he almost let all the students in the performing arts academy know that Nazha is his girlfriend.
As for why he ran to the hotel as soon as he saw Nazha, Gu Wei said it was because he loved her deeply. Yes, very deeply.
