The world of film and television starts from the flow of money

Chapter 295: Only Thirty (Burn the Boat)
Grand Hyatt Mansion, 1201.

It was already late, and when Xu Huanshan was preparing to go to bed, Gu Jia suddenly said:

"Hey, hubby, I want to enroll Xu Ziyan in an equestrian class. What do you think?"

"Equestrian class?" Xu Huanshan frowned and said, "Why did you suddenly have this idea? Equestrian classes don't seem cheap, right?"

Gu Jiandao: "Well, I have inquired about it. The aristocratic equestrian training class that Mrs. Yu's children signed up for requires a club membership fee of 20 yuan, and the private training course fee is paid separately, which is about 30 yuan."

"Why don't we forget it? Do our families still have that much money?" Xu Huanshan was a little confused. The 60 yuan Shen Jie borrowed had already paid his employees' wages.But the payment from Mr. Chen hasn’t come through yet. The bag I bought for Gu Jia a while ago has already overdrawn my credit card. Where can I get 30 yuan now?
"Don't worry, I'll just sell the bags and jewelry I bought before." Gu Jia had already planned it and said with a smile: "I didn't enroll Xu Ziyan in the equestrian class just to follow Mrs. Yu. You know, if Ziyan goes to study abroad in the future, being able to do equestrian will be a bonus."

"Isn't it a little early to say this now?" Xu Huanshan was speechless.

Gu Jia looked at Xu Huanshan, who had a steady expression on his face, and said softly: "Do you know how Mrs. Ma sent her two children to Oxford?"

"Use money." Xu Huanshan said disapprovingly.

"No," Gu Jia shook his head: "When their children were young, their family settled in Shenzhen. He personally sent his two children across the border to go to school in Hong Kong every morning. In order to keep his enrollment in a prestigious school, he let his eldest son go to school in the morning. In the afternoon, I went to two different schools for day study. I waited until my younger sister grew up to take over my elder brother's school status before I dared to transfer to another school."

Xu Huanshan was a little stunned: "Isn't it too hard?!"

"Yes, this incident really overturned my cognition. I used to think that Mrs. Wang and his children could have free range. But later I found out that this is not the case. They are more competitive on education issues."

Gu Jia also said with emotion:

"I learned about it today, such as robotics courses, equestrian courses, and golf courses. These courses will be bonus points in the future and will be helpful for children's further studies. So I was thinking that anyway, Mrs. Yu's child happens to be learning equestrian. We can kill two birds with one stone by signing up for Ziyan's equestrian lessons. Even if we can't get Mrs. Yu, it will be good for Ziyan. But don't worry, I will definitely find a way to take over the order. "

Xu Huanshan said noncommittally: "Is this your plan for Xu Ziyan?"

"How come it has become my plan for my son?" After listening to Xu Huanshan's words, Gu Jia suddenly said unhappily: "Didn't you say that you wanted to send him out to study when he grew up? Let's experience what we didn't experience back then. Yes, you can’t just talk the talk, you have to take action, right?”

Xu Huanshan was at a loss for words, and after a while he nodded and said: "Yeah~, okay, I support you, do you want me to borrow some money from my parents?"

"Forget it." Gu Jia shook his head: "The money is enough. Now bite the bullet and wait until we finish Mrs. Yu's order. The pressure will not be so great."

If Gu Jia wanted to borrow money from Xu Huanshan's parents, it would be better to ask Yi Huawei.

...............

Gu Jia still enrolled her son in an equestrian class. In order to pay for the tuition, she sold the bags and jewelry she had just bought.But this also increased the chance of contact with Mrs. Yu. During the contact between the two, Gu Jia gradually learned that Mrs. Yu's life was not easy.Mrs. Yu has no children of her own, and the child belongs to her husband's ex-wife.He was not close to Mrs. Yu, and Mrs. Yu did not dare to discipline him, but just coaxed the child.

Although Gu Jia saw Mrs. Yu's situation, she didn't say much. She just gave her some suggestions and asked her to try to get along with her stepson as a friend, which turned out to be quite effective.Mrs. Yu also received praise from her husband and gave her more pocket money.

Happy, Mrs. Yu gave her husband a pillow blow, and Gu Jia got an opportunity.The next day, Mrs. Yu's husband made an appointment with Gu Jia to play golf together. After the game, Mr. Yu directly asked Xu Huanshan to upgrade the company's qualifications, and then handed over the fireworks business of the park to him.

Winning the order so easily shocked Xu Huanshan's concept of choosing based on merit.

…………

Modu Feiren Sports Club, football stadium.

"how did you guys meet?"

Looking at Yi Huawei, who was still galloping on the court, Shen Jie slumped on the lawn without any image, his clothes soaked with sweat, and panting, he spoke to Xu Huanshan, who was also in a mess next to him.

"He lives upstairs from me," Xu Huanshan wiped the sweat from his forehead and said with a smile, "He is not bad, he is easy to get along with, and he has no airs."

"You really don't have any pretensions," Shen Jie nodded and said with some envy: "You're lucky to have met such a big boss. Don't forget your brother when you get rich in the future."

"Look what you said, he and I have a close friendship, as gentle as water. Haha~, mainly because I don't understand what he said,"

Xu Huanshan smiled and shook his head:

"However, he did suggest that I change the track, saying that the cost of our industry is high, but the profit is a bit low. But you also know that I only know this, and I have been here since I graduated from school. If I had changed the track, I would still be able to do it. I don’t know what to do. Besides, designing a unique firework has always been my ideal, and I won’t give up. By the way, I haven’t thanked you yet.”

"Are we still so polite to each other?" Shen Jie raised his hand and punched Xu Huanshan, and said with a smile: "But to be honest, I was originally thinking of waiting for your company to go bankrupt so that you could come and help me. It looks like I don’t have this chance anymore.”

"Haha~,"

Xu Huanshan laughed a few times and suddenly frowned.

Shen Jie asked: "What's wrong?"

"I feel a little emotional," Xu Huanshan shook his head: "I originally thought it was a competition of drafts and designs. Who knew, it was just a game of basketball, and then he heard the name of our company and gave us the order... …,”

"Isn't this good?" Shen Jie said speechlessly: "I also know about his paradise. A fireworks show every week is enough to double your turnover. You don't have to worry about it now."

Shen Jie understands Xu Huanshan's thoughts. He wants to sign the contract, but he also wants to do it because he appreciates his talent rather than relying on connections. To put it mildly, it is a bit too idealistic.

"You know." Xu Huanshan shook his head and said: "My original intention of making fireworks was that when I was studying fireworks design, I looked at the fireworks designed by foreign teams and had an idea in my mind. I will definitely design something better than the fireworks. Their fireworks are not bad, let those who choose foreign teams see that our country also has such awesome designs. But now... Although I made a lot of money by opening this company, I suddenly found that I was gradually falling behind my ideals. Fading away." "Firework design also costs money,"

Although he disagreed with Xu Huanshan's idea, Shen Jie smiled and politely advised: "Only by making money can you support your ideals, right? Ideals are based on reality..."

"How should I say?..., good goal!!" Xu Huanshan turned to look at Yi Huawei and volleyed in the air. The football drew an arc in the air and entered the goal.

A whistle blows and the first half ends.

Yi Huawei ran over, looked at the two people slumped on the grass, and said with a smile: "Have you rested?"

Xu Huanshan and Shen Jie looked at each other and shook their heads speechlessly. The two of them had played for less than half a game, but they couldn't stand it anymore. They were soaked with sweat. After half a game, Yi Huawei only had only one forehead. Sweating a little, he looked calm and collected.

"Mr. Yi, you have this physique!" Shen Jie gave Yi Huawei a thumbs up.

"You don't have to be so outspoken," Yi Huawei said with a smile, "Just like Brother Xu, just call me Huawei or Lao Yi."

"Okay, I'll just call you Hua Wei." Shen Jie said with a smile.

"What are you talking about?" Yi Huawei took the water from Xu Huanshan and asked with a smile.

"Huan Shan laments that he is not appreciating his talent." Shen Jie joked.

"It's nothing," Xu Huanshan shook his head and said, "I'm just a little confused. Huawei, can I ask you a question?"

"Say." Yi Huawei sat directly on the lawn.

"..., do you rich people do business so casually?"

After telling Yi Huawei how he got this order, Xu Huanshan asked curiously.

"Let's see what's going on."

Listening to Xu Huanshan's childish questions, Yi Huawei smiled: "However, anyone can do this business like yours, but you are qualified to set off fireworks, which means you have this ability, and he has heard of you. For the company, it’s enough to know that you won’t slip up. It also gives your wife face, and it can also promote the relationship between husband and wife. It kills two birds with one stone. You also need to be tough in blacksmithing. If your qualifications are not up to standard, my sister-in-law may not be able to do this business if she wants to. It’s so easy.”

"Sure enough, it's not as simple as Gu Jia said." Xu Huanshan nodded, feeling much more comfortable.

"By the way, Huawei, can you help me persuade her later?" Xu Huanshan hesitated for a while and said, "Originally, I planned to ask her to go back to the company to help me..."

"She refused, right?" Yi Huawei smiled.

"Yes," Xu Huanshan sighed and said, "She refused. I think she seemed to be a little confused. Maybe this order gave her an idea. She now wants to specialize in the wife circle, and she said she would work in I look for opportunities in the circle of wives, but I always feel a little unreliable in their circle."

"Your concerns are right," Yi Huawei said with a smile: "In their circle..., how should I put it, my sister-in-law takes it for granted. I will try to persuade her during dinner in the evening."

Regarding the circle of wives in the drama, Yi Huawei really doesn't take it seriously.

The real circle of rich wives does not have such a structure. It is not like a few wives of similar worth showing off to each other, competing against each other, and competing for beauty.In reality, a situation like this where several wealthy wives all have similar net worths will basically never happen.

The real rich wife circle has this structure: for example, the largest wife among them has extremely high family assets, about one billion, and is the core of the entire rich wife circle.
Then there are three or two wealthy wives whose families are less wealthy and worth several hundred million, as the first circle.These rich wives are usually other shareholders behind the boss, or the wives of senior executives, or they may be the wives of important business partners.Then in the second circle outside are a few wives worth tens of millions, and their assets may increase or decrease.

Only in the third circle could people like Gu Jia be squeezed in temporarily, but they were just foils.

The main atmosphere in the rich wife circle is that the three circles work together to make the eldest wife happy and work together to make the boss happy.There is not a competitive relationship between them, but a collaborative relationship.

The boss usually talks to the first and second circles, but not much to the third circle.As for the dozen or so people in this third circle, they all depend on the little crumbs of bread that come out from between the fingers of the eldest lady.

Because for the extremely valuable eldest lady, she no longer needs to consider any interests. The feeling of having a circle of people surrounding her and flattering her is addictive.There are trumpeters in front and flatterers behind. This kind of life is a kind of enjoyment in itself.

A lady worth a billion will not go to the circle of another lady worth a billion, unless it is a casual acquaintance in some business situations.They don't form a circle and mingle together.

The kind of exchange of needs and benefits is not called a circle of wives, that is a circle of bosses.

Why did the screenwriter form this impression of rich wives?That's because I was deceived by a group of people selling luxury bags.

Really rich people never care about bags. They only buy the most expensive ones, or even buy them with their eyes closed. There are few top-class rich people, and luxury goods dealers have to eat, so they promote Vanity Fair in various ways. Let the poor think that only by having a bag can they squeeze into the circle of ladies. To put it bluntly, this is a kind of IQ tax.

No one with a certain level of wealth will be looked down upon just because he doesn't drive a fancy car or wear a fancy watch.Old man Li is praised for wearing a digital watch.And Wang Moumou, will it make people think that he has no money if he eats at a roadside stall?Another example is Queen Dong. Even if she carries a card with a few dollars, she will not be looked down upon.

"What's wrong?" Xu Huanshan waved his hand, interrupting Yi Huawei's thoughts.

"Nothing, I'm going to the bathroom." Yi Huawei stood up and smiled: "You guys talk first, and after you have a rest, we can play some more and then go back."

"Okay, hurry up."

Xu Huanshan nodded.
