Chapter 945 Toughness(2/2)
Her salary per film is 20 million yen, which is only 100,000 US dollars.
Speaking of which, it is not as good as Hong Kong actress Chung Chu-hong who earned HK$700,000 to HK$750,000 during the same period.
Nowadays, there is no more the most lucrative piece of cake in an artist's income - advertising endorsements.
If she just shoots movies, TV dramas and commercial performances, she will not take a break for a year, and she will continue to act in movies, and the full amount will only exceed 100 million yen.
In fact, I'm afraid the income level is only about 70 million yen.
What's more, Matsumoto Keiko herself has financial troubles, and she still has to support a large number of people in the office.
How many people can afford to do this?
Not to mention that the car she drives is a Nissan, but she wants to buy a better imported car for Ning Weimin. What does this mean?
This means that in Matsumoto Keiko's heart, Ning Weimin is more important than herself.
In short, based on the hundred calculations in Ning Weimin's mind, it was easy to sort out this account for Matsumoto Keiko.
So naturally he decisively declined.
"I don't want a car. Don't spend any money on me."
"Why?" Matsumoto Keiko asked in confusion, her hands that were about to put on the earrings stopped.
"It's too luxurious. It's hard for you to make money."
"Don't think so much, it's just a gift for you. Don't all men like cars? Besides, you need them too."
Keiko Matsumoto patiently consoled her, "Look at you, there are more and more things you need to run around now. Having a car is more convenient. Aren't you very skilled in driving? Among Chinese people, you are the best at driving.
It’s not much. So don’t waste it. Let’s find time to get the Japanese driver’s license as soon as possible.”
"Then there's no need to buy a new car. I can buy a cheaper second-hand car myself. Besides, parking is so inconvenient. And the parking fees and gas costs are also very high..."
Ning Weimin was sincere, and what he said was indeed correct.
Japanese people living in Tokyo are accustomed to using public transportation and the usage rate of cars is not high. There is a reason for this.
One of the most critical factors is the cost of maintaining a car.
Don’t forget, Japan relies entirely on imported oil, so the cost of oil is naturally not cheap.
And because land is expensive in Tokyo, parking fees in this city are very high.
Public parking lots in more prosperous places do not even charge by the hour, but every ten minutes.
It costs about 100 yen or 150 yen every ten minutes.
For people who own cars, if they use a private car to travel, the cost of parking alone is a huge expense.
What's more, even if there is a free parking lot, it is usually overcrowded due to the high car ownership rate in Japan.
If you really need to drive to a place, such as a shopping mall in Ginza, you often have to wait for half an hour for a parking space, and the free time you can enjoy is only one hour.
To be honest, except for special professions such as salesmen, buying a car is of little use to ordinary people in Tokyo.
The most important thing is that the holidays can be used by family members to travel and shop in distant places.
However, relatively speaking, because the Japanese have a high cost of disposing of large pieces of garbage, it has directly lowered the transaction price of second-hand cars.
Think about it, if you throw away a car, you have to pay a garbage disposal fee of 10,000 yen.
In this case, car owners who are getting rid of their old cars might as well take the car to a second-hand car dealer and sell it for money.
Even if you let someone take it for free, it's still better than paying for it.
Therefore, used cars in Tokyo are really cheap.
I wish I could buy an original Nissan or Toyota with only a few hundred thousand or two hundred thousand yen.
And the performance is usually pretty good, but you can't be too particular about it given the age.
To sum up, the situation in Tokyo is that almost everyone can afford a car, but maintaining a car is too expensive and not cost-effective.
But then again, some things are just so awesome.
The more Ning Weimin thought this way, the more he took the initiative to make financial considerations for Matsumoto Keiko.
On the other hand, Keiko Matsumoto mistakenly thought that he was feeling inferior. The more compassionate she felt, the more she wanted to buy him a good car.
Matsumoto Keiko was silent for a while, then suddenly came over and threw herself into Ning Weimin's arms.
To be honest, she had always been paying attention to Ning Weimin since she started dating.
I worry that because of the disparity in economic problems and social status, Ning Weimin's dignity may be touched if he doesn't pay attention.
She was so eager to help Ning Weimin that she was afraid that he would be hurt.
So while stroking his hair, she coaxed him like a child.
"Don't worry. You don't have to worry about money. Leave it all to me..."
"I……"
Ning Weimin still wanted to explain, but this time he was interrupted after just one word.
Matsumoto Keiko, who was overflowing with motherhood, persisted rather stubbornly.
"Don't say anything, don't say anything, don't think about anything. You are so young, and so smart and capable. You have many opportunities in the future. Don't... don't be intimidated by money, let alone money.
defeat……"
This feeling of being carefully cared for is something that any man in the world would enjoy.
This is especially true for Ning Weimin, who has been an orphan his whole life.
So he didn't even want to talk about the misunderstanding that he originally wanted to clarify. He even thought it would be good to continue the misunderstanding like this.
What's the point of pretending to be 13 in front of women?
Such a heart-pounding feeling, the feeling of being cared for and cared for by others, is what he enjoys the most.
He couldn't help but hug Matsumoto Keiko just as tightly.
His lips rubbed her hair repeatedly, smelling the fragrance.
Perhaps because he was excited, his voice was vibrating.
"Thank you, Qingzi, thank you very much."
"Didn't I say you're not polite?"
"I remember it, I really remember it. I won't do it next time."
"Okay then, what car do you like? Is a BMW good? How about a Porsche?"
"No, I don't want it, I don't want any car... Just promise me not to give me a car. Okay?"
"Why? Do you still think these cars are too expensive, so you don't dare to drive them?"
"No, I can drive, I dare to drive, and my driving skills are very good."
"Then why don't you?" Matsumoto Keiko couldn't help but become troubled, and lightly bit Ning Weimin's chin.
"Because I am considering buying a car with public funds, you should know some of the situation in China, right? Some things are not as rigid as Japanese companies. If I apply, the head office will probably agree. I can probably let the company pay for the relevant expenses in the future.
I'll take it. So you can just wait for me to buy a car and pick you up. Do you prefer BMW or Porsche...?"
In order to save some money for Matsumoto Keiko, Ning Weimin did not hesitate to make a fuss.
If he buys such a good car, he must pay for it himself.
Fortunately, Matsumoto Keiko did not doubt that he was there, so she really believed him when he said this.
"Really? If that's the case, then I won't worry."
Then she said affectionately, "Actually, any car is good, you should choose the one you like. After all, you drive it. But...since I have agreed to your request and will not buy you a car, then I still want it."
You have to agree to another condition."
"You said..." Ning Weimin, who had done business at a loss, remained calm and his heart did not change. He was happy to suffer such losses.
"Promise me to move to my apartment in Nishi-Azabu when you leave here, okay? I'll leave the key to you..."
"You mean...the house where we first met?" Ning Weimin asked in surprise.
Seeing Matsumoto Keiko nodding, he couldn't help but ask, "But why? You should cherish that house, right? If I go to live there...it will inevitably get dirty."
"It doesn't matter what you say. To be honest, I really want you to move into my house. But my house in Denen Chofu has been hiring people for a long time. If you want to come, they will definitely spread gossip when they see you.
.So if you don’t mind, let’s consider the house in Nishi-Azabu as our home. The conditions there are more comfortable, and it will be much easier for us to communicate with each other. We can often talk on the phone, and as soon as I return to Tokyo, I can directly
I went there to meet you. This is the company’s house after all, if..."
"Okay, I promise you. I'll move there in a few days." After hearing this, Ning Weimin finally nodded and agreed.
"Huh? Really?" Keiko Matsumoto seemed like she still couldn't believe it.
"Yes. What you said makes sense. I promised you that I will wait for your return in Nishi-Azabu's apartment."
"Thanks!"
Look, what's going on!
