I am a super cop

Chapter 1314 Gray Business 【Seeking Monthly Pass】

Inside the food stall.

The more Xu Fangzhi spoke, the more confused he became.

As a novice in financial leverage, Lu Weiwei couldn't understand it at all.

Previously, the difference in bank valuation was used to cleverly play a cash flow leverage.

This is what Lu Weiwei has already admired.

But now Xu Fangzhi said that this is only a part of the haunted house business, which inevitably makes people feel that the business of buying and selling haunted houses is very deep.

At least laymen can't understand it at all.

Lu Weiwei frowned slightly, and asked weakly: "Then what part of the haunted house business you mentioned?"

Xu Fangzhi pointed to himself.

Lu Weiwei didn't understand, and asked again: "What do you mean by yourself?"

"The haunted house business also gave birth to another career, which is the one I'm in now..."

"Anchor?"

Before Xu Fangzhi could finish speaking, Lu Weiwei interrupted directly.

Xu Fangzhi hesitated for a moment, then shook his head silently: "Anchor is just a specific title, I'm talking about a sleep tester in a haunted house."

"Pfft! A sleep tester in a haunted house?"

Hearing Xu Fangzhi's words, Lu Weiwei couldn't help holding back her laughter: "This...this haunted house has to have a test sleeper? Is this just playing Liaozhai?"

"It's not what you imagined." Feeling that Lu Weiwei's comprehension was really intoxicated, Xu Fangzhi also retorted:
"Let me ask you, star-rated hotels, high-quality Internet celebrities, are there any sleep testers?"

"Yes... yes?" Lu Weiwei glanced at Gu Chen beside her, and asked Gu Chen for advice.

But Gu Chen nodded silently: "There are some of these, usually some travel bloggers act as sleep testers."

"That's right." Seeing that Gu Chen still understands a little bit, Xu Fangzhi also explained: "Generally, star-rated hotels invite these influential people in the industry for free, let them try to sleep for one night, and then share their experience To the fans."

"Then it's the same reason. As a live broadcasting celebrity, they certainly hope to show those fans the experience of sleeping in a haunted house through my platform."

"Oh, I see." Hearing what Xu Fangzhi said, Lu Weiwei said immediately, "I just heard you call and said, why do you go to work at night, so you should be a sleep tester?"

"Yeah, did you know that?"

Feeling that Lu Weiwei's reaction was really slow, Xu Fangzhi didn't care, and just explained to the two:

"It is because of the haunted house transaction that this kind of profession was born."

"A sleep tester in a haunted house, as the name suggests, is a profession that can make money by sleeping on the bed."

"But..." Gu Chen hesitated for a moment, looked at Xu Fangzhi and asked, "But how did you find this job? It's too remote."

"You can only make money by doing something different." Seeing that Gu Chen and the two didn't understand at all, Xu Fangzhi also said truthfully:
"Actually, I just started, and I don't know much about the situation, but later, during the live broadcast, some fans told me that a company is recruiting test sleepers, and the salary is not low."

"I went to watch it on that platform as soon as it aired. My good guy, they are openly recruiting anchors for a sleep test in a haunted house."

"Then what? Is there any more now? I also want to apply for the anchor of the haunted house test sleep, I don't believe in evil."

Lu Weiwei found the right time and wanted to compete with Xu Fangzhi for a job.

Xu Fangzhi's expression darkened immediately, and he looked Lu Weiwei up and down.

After a while, Xu Fangzhi replied with a sneer: "People need experience, and you certainly can't."

"Besides, how can there be so many haunted house sleep testers recruiting? I always stood out from more than 100 competitors."

"So awesome?" Feeling that Xu Fangzhi still has some background, Lu Weiwei changed her confident smile just now, and continued to ask him in a humble tone:
"Then what are the main requirements for recruiting sleep test anchors in haunted houses on the platform?"

"Main requirements?" Time passed, Xu Fangzhi still thought about it, and then he talked to Lu Weiwei:

"At that time, I just remembered that the reason for their recruitment was that a hardcover 'Haunted House' would be launched on the platform, so they urgently recruited a 'Haunted House Trial Anchor' to show the house type and living experience within 24 hours."

"The anchor of the sleep test in the haunted house, do you have any requests?" Gu Chen was also curious.

After all, this is a new profession.

Although Gu Chen is currently not clear about the connection between Xu Fangzhi and the previous scam gang, his current occupation is indeed easy to imagine.

Xu Fangzhi smiled faintly: "Requirements? Of course there are recruitment requirements. It requires boldness, carefulness, and belief in science."

"In addition, I remember that there was also a hint in the job description, saying that the first thing is that you need to try to live in the 'Haunted House' for 24 hours, and explain your trial living experience through a live broadcast."

"And second, you must be a firm atheist, believe in science, and not be afraid to listen to ghost stories in the middle of the night."

"Is there a third one?" Lu Weiwei continued to ask if there is a second and there is a third.

Xu Fangzhi nodded fiercely: "Of course, the third thing is whether you have relevant experience, and you have extra points for sleeping test experience in star hotels."

Pointing to himself, Xu Fangzhi said again: "However, I have never been a sleep tester, but I have been an outdoor anchor and have experience in live broadcasting."

"In fact, the content of this job is also very simple, that is, after moving into a haunted house, start a live broadcast to explain your own experience."

"For me, a professional anchor, it is tailor-made, and there is no problem at all."

"So, you stand out from the more than 100 people?" Lu Weiwei asked.

Xu Fangzhi spread his hands: "Otherwise? What do you think?"

"Others may have such and such specialties, but I am better than them in terms of anchor experience."

"Of course there are some who have done live broadcasts, but they don't have as many fans as I do. In addition, I market myself with all kinds of eloquence, so..."

"Hehe, you're too Versailles, aren't you?" Feeling that Xu Fangzhi was praising himself in a different direction, Lu Weiwei also complained.

Xu Fangzhi waved his hand: "You don't understand, originally I was not interested in this, and more than 100 people came to compete."

"But what interests me is that I can get 1 yuan per minute as the anchor of the haunted house test sleep."

"In this way, you can earn 1440 yuan a day."

"This salary...is not low." Hearing Xu Fangzhi's words, Gu Chen was quite surprised.

Otherwise, why did it attract more than 100 people to sign up?
"It turns out that there are so many courageous people in this world, and a large part of the reason is for money?" Gu Chen thought of this, and couldn't help but say:
"But most people who want to buy a haunted house to live in must be more or less entangled in their hearts? And the sleep testers in the haunted house should exist to resolve this entanglement."

"Brother, you are right."

As soon as Xu Fangzhi finished speaking, the proprietress also brought a few people's rice with green pepper shredded pork.

Since everyone is sitting together and ordering the same dish.

Therefore, Xu Fangzhi also had a special affinity for the two, and he didn't have much guard against them.

As soon as they communicated with each other, they instantly felt that they hit it off, so while eating, they revealed some secrets to Gu Chen.

"At the same time as this live broadcast, you can't just share the sleeping experience. Sometimes, you have to choose the right time to list the purchase price of the haunted house."

"Or live broadcast and auction at the same time, so that the business can be maximized."

"Will that work?" Gu Chen curiously asked him while eating the dishes.

Xu Fangzhi grinned: "How can this be useless? Let me tell you this, just Suzhou City, Gusu District, there is a haunted house over there, and they used the live broadcast to attract people, and 24 people signed up for the auction."

"In the end, this haunted house was auctioned for 283 million yuan, which is 80 yuan higher than the estimated market price."

"And this high premium is due to the sleep testers in the haunted house."

"Would it be possible that the other 23 bidders are all trustees, and only one bidder really wants to buy it?"

Gu Chen's words almost choked Xu Fangzhi to death while eating.

After coughing heavily, Xu Fangzhi waved his hand and said, "Nothing like that, trust me, there must be some, but definitely not so many."

Lu Weiwei smiled lightly: "That might be true. Some time ago, someone in our community was defrauded by finance, and was lured into the so-called group of financial investment masters by the scammer."

"There were more than 100 people in a group, and it turned out that except for him, they were all liars. The group of people cooperated closely, and they flattered each other to make the victims in my community believe it was true. They really thought that following the master could make a lot of money."

"The result? I took out 30 filial piety for nothing, and this is not the first time this has happened."

"I... I know that the situation you mentioned does exist, but the case I mentioned is real."

Feeling a bit overwhelmed by Lu Weiwei, Xu Fangzhi took a few mouthfuls of food to slow himself down.

Lu Weiwei continued to ask him: "In addition to playing with cash flow and financial leverage and having sleep testers, is there any other profit in this kind of haunted house business?"

"Does it need to be said? It's the most primitive real estate speculation." Xu Fangzhi picked up the paper cup, took a glass of water from the water dispenser next door, took a sip and said:

"In addition to trying to sleep, there is another type of people who make huge profits by relying on haunted houses."

"For example, in Hong Kong City, there is a legendary figure known as the 'Haunted House King'. Do you know who it is?"

"No... I don't know." Of course Lu Weiwei didn't know, it felt like something very far away.

But Gu Chen nodded and said, "Is it Wu Guanliu who is called the ghost king in the industry?"

"Hey?" Hearing what Gu Chen said, Xu Fangzhi raised his head and stared at Gu Chen, and said with admiration, "I never thought that you even know Wu Guanliu, the ghost king of Hong Kong City?"

Gu Chen smiled lightly: "I have seen some reports about him in the relevant media, so I have a little impression."

"Yeah, that's right." Xu Fangzhi nodded silently, and said in agreement:

"The industry calls him the King of Ghosts, because he often buys haunted houses at low prices, hoards them for a period of time, and then sells them at high prices, using the so-called time difference to make huge profits."

Looking around, Xu Fangzhi approached Gu Chen and whispered, "It is said that he has at least dozens of haunted houses in his hands."

"Moreover, it is mainly used for sale and lease to some unbelieving tenants. It is said that this Wu Guanliu has earned tens of millions just by selling and renting out haunted houses."

Hearing what Xu Fangzhi said, Lu Weiwei didn't dare to believe it: "So it's so profitable to buy and sell haunted houses?"

"Then if that's the case, don't we have a lot of investors like this in the mainland?" By analogy, Gu Chen also felt that it should be the case.

But I just haven't seen it myself.

Xu Fangzhi grinned: "Does it need to be said? In the mainland, there are also many investors who specialize in investing in haunted houses."

"But this business is relatively gray and will not be discovered by normal people."

Gu Chen nodded silently, and said involuntarily, "But it doesn't matter whether it's buying a haunted house to live in, taking out a mortgage, or buying and selling to earn the difference."

"Behind every haunted house is actually a human tragedy."

"However, these tragedies are treated as financial products, bought and sold by others, and even become a stepping stone for investment and financial management."

After thinking about it, Gu Chen also shook his head and said: "It seems that what is really scary...is not the haunted house itself, but the people and reality that created the haunted house."

"Hehe, you are right, but business is business after all. If you don't do this business, someone will naturally do it."

After swallowing a few mouthfuls of food, Xu Fangzhi couldn't help but say: "But 360 lines, every line will be the champion."

"About the business experience behind this haunted house, only you can't think of it, and no one else can't."

Lu Weiwei blinked her beautiful eyes, and couldn't help complaining: "Then I feel that the haunted house can be bought to escape the heat, so that it always feels cool behind the back, and doesn't feel hot."

"Good guy, the business opportunity is here." Xu Fangzhi chuckled, and also said with a light smile: "So, this can also be a selling point. I can use this line when I broadcast live at night."

"Then what's your online name? Maybe we can also watch your live broadcast at that time." Given this opportunity, Gu Chen saw the needle and established a connection instantly.

Xu Fangzhi grinned: "It's called Xiao Xu, a sleep tester in a haunted house. I'm well-known in this industry. Whenever there are haunted houses for sale around Jiangnan City, they will ask me to cooperate. I am also very happy."

"The most important thing is not the live broadcast fee of one yuan per minute, but the commission after selling the haunted house. That's a big deal, and it depends on whether we can live or not."

"So that's the case?" While teasing, Lu Weiwei took out her phone and followed "Haunted House Sleep Tester Xiao Xu".

Seeing this situation, Gu Chen also asked curiously: "Your accent is not from the local area, is it?"

"Yes, my family is from Haidong City." Xu Fangzhi said.

"Then why did you come to work around Jiangnan City?" Gu Chen also asked the question.

After all, according to the clues Gu Chen learned, Xu Fangzhi has been working in Shanghai, and he is also engaged in industry journals.

But now it suddenly appeared around Jiangnan City, which is easy to make people imagine.

And this is why Gu Chen wanted to get close to Xu Fangzhi, the purpose was to find out the operation behind Xu Fangzhi.

Xu Fangzhi suddenly became silent when he heard the words.

Lu Weiwei froze, and hurriedly asked him, "What's wrong?"

"You should be locals, right?" Looking up at Gu Chen and Lu Weiwei, Xu Fangzhi's expression suddenly became melancholy.

Lu Weiwei chuckled and said, "What locals are not locals? It's true that we are locals, but is there a problem?"

"Then you probably don't understand how I feel." Xu Fangzhi put down his chopsticks, biting the grease stains at the corner of his mouth, and then said:

"In fact, people who have worked hard in big cities should have experienced such a scene, that is, more than 200 people crowded in a line in a space of less than 30 square meters."

"Then the air smells of pancake fruit and cheap perfume."

"And the time after get off work is basically not so chic."

"So... what do you want to say?" Gu Chen didn't quite understand, feeling that Xu Fangzhi's mood was uncertain.

Xu Fangzhi said disapprovingly: "I'm talking about the days when I was working in Shanghai. After 9 hours of mechanical labor, compared to the night in Shanghai at that time, the single bed in the village in the city is more desirable."

"And when you take the subway, you no longer expect to have a seat. It's good enough to lean against the corner of the carriage door and rest for a while."

After thinking for a while, Xu Fangzhi said again: "Oh, by the way, it's best not to meet those old people who take the initiative to ask for seats when they are exhausted after get off work and take the subway."

"That's when I started to think about the possibility of being in this city."

"But this possibility doesn't refer to whether you can live here, but why do you want to live here?"

"So you left Shanghai and came to Jiangnan City, where life is less stressful?" Gu Chen asked.

Xu Fangzhi nodded silently, and also took the initiative to explain: "The main reason is that my girlfriend works in Jiangnan City."

"Before, she suffered a lot in Shanghai to follow me, so she got tired of it."

"And when I returned to the cramped rented house in Shanghai that day, she just hung up the phone, saying that she had just received an interview notice and wanted to try another place, that is, Jiangnan City."

After a pause, Xu Fangzhi also said with a wry smile: "In the final analysis, people often try to see if they can do it? Can they try to change jobs? Can they try to change companies? Can they try changing careers?"

"She is engaged in music, and she asked me, what else can I do if I don't sing?"

"Then she probably wants to leave Shanghai." Lu Weiwei gave the answer from a female perspective.

"That's right." Xu Fangzhi grinned, nodded and admitted, "So, if nothing happens, leaving is on the agenda."

"I also talked about this topic with my girlfriend, but her answer was more straightforward. She said that it is of course good to stay. Even if you don't think about yourself, you should think about the next generation, right?"

"But when I heard the word next generation, I was shocked."

"But she seemed to see my worry, so she added another sentence: If you are really tired, you can leave at worst, as long as the trip is not in vain."

Smiling, Xu Fangzhi sighed, trying to calm down, and then said:

"As for how to make it worthless, my understanding later is this, if you don't want to study penguins, you don't need to go to Antarctica."

"If you don't want to make movies, you don't have to stay in Hengdian."

"In other words, you stay somewhere because it's closer to what you're after."

"It's a pity that many people only care about staying, but forget why they want to stay."

"But I know that not everyone has the energy to pursue the meaning of work while coping with life."

"Including myself, I have worked as a toolman several times for food and clothing, but gradually I discovered that finding the meaning of work is not a hypocritical thing."

"You're right." Seeing that Xu Fangzhi had such a feeling, he must also be a man of love.

At least Gu Chen could empathize, so he replied with a light smile, "Because the word 'meaning' is premised on 'interest' and 'talent'."

"It's so difficult." Xu Fangzhi shook his head: "You are right, but if you can't find these two things, it will be difficult for your hard work to turn your work into a career."

"It might sound cruel, but it is what it is."

After a pause, Xu Fangzhi changed the subject, and said, "Of course, searching requires courage and a certain financial price."

"But this price is likely to make you live in the urban village longer, so that you will still not be understood when you go home during the Chinese New Year."

"But at least, when you struggle next year, you can understand yourself better because of it."

Hammering his chest, Xu Fangzhi also laughed at himself: "Just take me as an example. For an ordinary young man in his 20s, this is far more important than the promise of his boss, the support of his family, and the living environment." Much more important."

"Since my girlfriend decided to work in Jiangnan City, I quit my job in Shanghai and came here with her."
