Chapter 53 New Year
"After I earned this money, I used it to register a film and television company in Beijing and hired some employees.
Later, I invested in the movie "The Sword Identity".
Now that the movie is a big hit, I've made some money." Gu Wei explained bit by bit.
After Gu Wei's explanation, Gu's mother and father also accepted the fact that their son had so much money.
Dad Gu asked again, "How much money does your company have now?"
"Not counting other copyrights and stuff, there's probably still over 40 million in cash. "Embroidered Spring Blade" will also have some copyright income coming in later."
Gu Wei did not mention the loan, saying that this was mainly to let his parents know that he already had money and would make more money in the future.
At the same time, make them happy and proud.
You must tell your parents when you have achieved something. They won’t think of taking credit for your success, but they will definitely be proud of you and will show off in front of relatives and friends. That is the time when they are happiest.
It would make them happier if their children were successful and made a name for themselves than if they were successful themselves.
"Son, you are amazing. I have said before that my son is a genius.
Although my grades were average when I was in school, I have accumulated a lot of experience and will be able to make great strides after entering university. ”
Gu Wei's mother was very excited. She was so happy about her son's success that she wanted to tell everyone how outstanding her son was.
Gu Wei's father also smiled with relief. His father never expressed his emotions too exaggeratedly. Whether he was sad or happy, he kept it in his heart.
"Gu Wei, you have really grown up." His father sighed.
Then he turned around and reminded Gu Wei's mother, "You can tell relatives and friends about Gu Wei opening a company in Beijing, but don't mention it to anyone else about making so much money.
A tall tree attracts the wind. Gu Wei is already in the entertainment industry, so he should not be too conspicuous.
"I understand. If someone asks me how much money my son can earn in the future, I won't know anything." Gu Wei's mother was still excited about her son's success.
To be honest, neither of them was happy about how much money they made, but they were happy that their son could make so much money.
"Dad, Mom, didn't you say before that you would buy me a house in Beijing? I'm telling you all this to let you know that I'm rich now. When the time comes, you can look at any house you want. Anything under 40 million yuan will be fine."
Gu Wei said proudly.
"That's fine. Originally, your mother and I had discussed that we would find a good location and buy you a house of about 100 square meters. We would pay the down payment for you, and then we would take out a loan and pay it back slowly.
Now that you have money, you can consider buying a bigger one, so you can have it for your wedding in the future." said Gu Wei's father.
"Dad, if I want to buy a house in Beijing, I need five years of tax receipts or social security payment records. I don't have them yet, but I can buy it in the name of my company. The money is in the company's account anyway.
"After the Chinese New Year, you and my mom will come with me to Beijing to help me with the house issue. I have a movie project to start shooting after the Chinese New Year, and then the house will be up to you two." Gu Wei said.
"Let your mother go. I can't leave after the factory starts operating after the New Year." said Gu's father.
"If there's anything that keeps you away from your factory, let Deputy Director Wang take care of it. I'll just call you if there's anything. Let's go to Beijing together. It's important to buy a house for our son." Mother Gu advised.
Gu Wei's father hesitated for a moment, but still couldn't insist. After all, according to the budget given by his son, this was not a cheap house. Perhaps this house was more expensive than his entire net worth, so he really needed to be cautious.
"Okay then, I'll listen to you. After the New Year, we'll go together as a family."
The house issue was settled, and the family had a happy meal. Gu Wei told his parents some interesting things that happened during the filming of the movie.
Let his parents feel that their son's acting is an easy and interesting job that can earn him a lot of money.
This way I won't have to worry about him.
The next day is February 9th, the Lunar New Year’s Eve.
Early in the morning, Gu Wei was woken up by his mother. The family had a simple breakfast and then started the first job of the New Year's Day, pasting couplets.
Outside the gate, Gu Wei and his father worked together to move a stool. One person stood on the stool to paste the couplets, while the other handed him the couplets. The person below was also responsible for checking whether they were pasted crookedly.
A pair of Spring Festival couplets to celebrate the New Year, the word "Fu" on the door, hanging money on the door, a big red Chinese knot on the wall inside the house, the word "Fu" on the window, etc. The two of them worked hard and finally finished pasting everything.
Finally, there are lanterns hanging on the balcony. These are turned on when it gets dark at night and need to be lit all night.
With the house decorated like this, the atmosphere of the New Year is immediately created.
After finishing his work, Gu Wei had nothing to do, so he lay on the sofa and played with his mobile phone.
Mom and Dad started preparing various dishes for a big New Year's Eve dinner. Even though there were only three of us, it was still a big feast. The rest would be eaten slowly over the next few days.
Since morning, Gu Wei's phone has been ringing non-stop, and he has been receiving New Year's greetings text messages from people.
Some were sent by classmates at school, some were sent by employees at the company, and some were sent by friends in the circle like Senior Brother Lu Yang and Teacher Wang Qianyuan.
Of course Liu Yifei also sent him a New Year's greeting message
"Happy New Year, Mr. Gu. I look forward to your directorial masterpiece!" He added a teasing expression at the end.
I replied to everyone's New Year greetings, and finally replied to Liu Yifei
"I wish Sister Yifei a successful year with both box office success and positive reviews, and may she be even more beautiful in appearance and teeth!"
Liu Yifei, who was far away in Beijing, was stunned for a moment after receiving the message. Then she found a mirror, smiled at it, and then put the mirror down and thought angrily, "Forget it, I will try not to show my teeth when I smile in the future. You annoying Gu Wei!"
Zeng Li also sent a New Year's greeting message. After Gu Wei replied, he sent her another message, inviting her to dinner when he returned to Beijing after the New Year.
Last time, Zeng Li treated us to dinner, and we chatted and drank together. The atmosphere was very good and we both had a very good experience.
Gu Wei extended the invitation, and Zeng Li readily accepted it.
She has a very good impression of this little brother Gu Wei.
Before I knew it, it was already past 4 o'clock in the afternoon. My parents had already prepared all the dishes, and the Gu family's New Year's Eve dinner was about to begin.
This year's New Year's Eve dinner was exceptionally sumptuous, and Gu Wei's parents were in high spirits, as their son had made great progress. Dad Gu drank white wine, Gu Wei had a small glass, and Mom Gu drank red wine.
Before Gu Wei went to college, his family did not allow him to drink alcohol. When he was a child, they were afraid that drinking would damage his brain and affect his studies.
After entering college, Gu's father advised him to drink less.
The family happily toasted to celebrate the New Year, and then enjoyed delicious food while chatting about family matters.
The New Year's Eve dinner lasted more than two hours. Dad Gu's face was red from drinking, and Mom Gu's face was also flushed.
It's not the alcohol that makes you drunk, it's you who makes yourself drunk. When you are in a good mood, you will drink more unconsciously.
