Chapter 656 Dubai
It felt like I had an incredibly wonderful dream, and only after waking up did I realize that the dream was real.
Doutzen Kroes and Miranda Kerr each left him a set of small gifts.
Especially the one worn by Doutzen Kroes, which was said to have been worn at last year's Victoria's Secret Fashion Show. It is very memorable.
What can Fan Wumian say?
I really don't have a hobby in this regard, and I can't really take it home to collect it, and then take it out to savor it slowly when I have nothing to do, so I just throw it into the trash can.
It’s noon local time in Dubai.
I continued shooting videos for the internet, had lunch at the restaurant with a huge aquarium at the Burj Al Arab in Dubai, and then went to check in at the Palm Jumeirah.
During this period, a local official representative came and presented Fan Wumian and Britney with a sea view villa on the Palm Jumeirah respectively.
The two villas are next to each other, each covering an area of about 720 square meters. They have a very modern exterior and have been renovated inside. It is said that the market value of each is about 1800 million US dollars.
The market price is very high, and the actual development cost is probably less than one-third. In recent years, housing prices in Dubai have skyrocketed, and a large bubble has already appeared, with luxury houses everywhere that no one is willing to take over.
The reason for being so generous and giving the villa to the two of them was obviously to "hook them".
Britney Spears has a great influence in Europe and the United States, while Fan Wumian has many fans in Asia. Once the news gets out, perhaps he can trick many wealthy people from all over the world into buying properties in Dubai, and the profits will be far higher than the cost of giving the villa as a gift.
If Fan Wumian wanted a house in Dubai, he would have had the opportunity to take the initiative to contact the developers in Dubai a long time ago. However, he gave up trying to avoid causing losses to others due to his own influence.
Today it was indeed the local official representative who suddenly announced the news without consulting them in advance and handed the keys to the house to both of them on the spot.
In this regard.
Compared to how excited he was, Fan Wumian was rather speechless.
He began to suspect that Dubai's property market was worse than it seemed, which was why locals were desperately grasping at every straw.
After visiting the Palm Jumeirah, they went to Jumeirah Public Beach to ride jet skis and experience paragliding over the sea. The cameraman of the program crew was not busy and only took some shots of the exciting content, such as the swimsuit outfits of several guests.
Alexandra Daddario was in full swing, jogging in a black swimsuit, attracting the attention of countless passers-by, and the rate of turning back was frighteningly high.
She didn't care about others at all and clearly noticed that Fan Wumian looked at her several times, which made Daddario very happy. He felt a sense of satisfaction as if he had finally defeated the Victoria's Secret models.
Young girls are more or less vain.
In terms of career achievements, Daddario has already lost. These Victoria's Secret models earn millions of dollars a year, while she has trouble paying the rent. If she loses to Doutzen Kroes and others in terms of sexiness and beauty, she will be so depressed that she will toss and turn and find it difficult to fall asleep at night.
In the evening, we went to another hotel to enjoy a big dinner, and then discussed tomorrow's itinerary in the bar, including visiting the desert, skydiving, visiting the world's tallest building, the Burj Khalifa, and so on.
Doutzen Kroes and Miranda Kerr, who drank a lot of wine that night, met again in Fan Wumian's suite and did not leave until around eight o'clock the next morning.
Daddario saw all of this through the peephole in the door, from the noise coming from the corridor outside. He was annoyed that he couldn't find a chance to be alone with Fan Wumian, but he was also very curious about what they did in the suite.
What is an unexpected surprise?
When Daddario suddenly learned that after shooting enough video footage in Dubai, several supermodels would leave early to attend another event in Paris, France, she was very happy.
In the evening, after Miranda Kerr and the others checked out, Daddario immediately took a shower, put on makeup, changed his clothes, and prepared himself mentally before knocking on Fan Wumian's door.
I originally had a prejudice against Fan Wumian, thinking that he was a playboy. However, when I entered the living room, I found that he was busy working, looking very mature and capable.
now.
Daddario was a little reserved, showing just the right smile and asked:
"Are you busy? I wanted to invite you for a drink, but if I disturb you, forget it."
Fan Wumian said calmly, "It's okay. There's a project at the company, and I just happened to be looking at the information. Those Victoria's Secret models like to have a lot of fun, and it seems like you don't get along with them. Did you have fun these two days?"
Daddario stood beside the sofa and said with a smile:
"Of course, I have never experienced the royal family's private jet or this luxurious hotel before. I was scared when I experienced skydiving in the morning, but it was very exciting."
Fan Wumian continued the topic:
"I have never tried skydiving before. I have always wanted to come here to try it, but Dubai is too far away from the port city and the mainland. It is really uncomfortable to put your life in the hands of a skydiving instructor. The desert trip in the afternoon seems to be more suitable for me. The scenery is really beautiful."
Daddario was a little nervous, pretending to be relaxed:
"It was the first time I saw a real desert. I will never forget that scene. I asked a photographer to take a few photos for me. The result should be very good."
Fan Wumian continued to look down at the documents.
It's not that he was playing hard to get and leaving her aside on purpose. He was just a little sleepy after a whole day of playing outside, and he also had the aura of a sage.
If Daddario hadn't suddenly come to his door, he would have been ready to finish dealing with the pile of documents quickly, then take a shower and go to bed early.
After watching attentively for a minute or two, Fan Wumian came back to his senses and continued to ask:
"You are an actor in Hollywood. Have you signed a long-term contract with an agency? When I first met you two days ago, I found that your image is very charming and easy for the audience to remember. But I have been too busy these two days and have not found a chance to ask you about the details."
Daddario was cheered up after hearing this, and while complaining that he was indeed too busy, he quickly said:
"I have an agent, but I can end my relationship with her at any time. It's not a formal contract. Every time I encounter a suitable role, she will call me for an audition and then help me negotiate a contract. If I make money, she will take 45% of it."
Fan Wumian asked, "Like Joey's agent in Friends?"
As a phenomenal American TV series, Daddario has certainly watched "Friends" and answered with a bright smile:
"It's almost like that, but a little more professional than Joey's agent. In 2005, I starred in a movie called The Squid and the Whale. It cost only $150 million to make and eventually made $700 million at the box office. For an independent film, it was enough to satisfy everyone."
Done.
Daddario herself felt something was a little strange at first. She had finally mustered up the courage to take a shortcut and get a taste of what it was like to be supported by a financial sponsor, but unfortunately they only talked about these dry topics and there was no spark at all.
Fan Wumian was just about to ask her if she wanted to switch jobs and work under him.
He happened to receive a call from Britney Spears, saying that she wanted to go to Palm Jumeirah to visit a villa donated by the locals. He immediately agreed and got up to take Daddario out.
When she saw Daddario and Fan Wumian coming out of the suite, Britney Spears smiled like an auntie and asked:
"Am I disturbing you? How about we go tomorrow morning? Sitting by the window and looking at the sea view at night is a perfect atmosphere for a date. I don't want to be a third wheel."
Fan Wumian smiled and replied:
"Don't get me wrong, she just came to talk to me about Hollywood. It's very close to Palm Jumeirah by car, but I have forgotten where the villa they gave us is. Those artificial palm leaf-shaped islands all seem to look the same."
Britney Spears had helped Fan Wumian match up many times, and thought she had finally succeeded once, so she naturally took Daddario's arm and asked curiously:
"Yesterday they said they would give us the villa. Do we need to find a lawyer to go through some formalities? Or will they just give us the right to use it? I can bring my friends here for vacation in the future. If we just want to go shopping or hang out in bars, this place should be nice, and it's warmer in the winter."
Fan Wumian shrugged and said:
"I'm not sure either. It would be best to call and ask. But I think Dubai is not as interesting as I imagined. I might get bored after coming here once or twice. It's better to just cash in."
Daddario, who had no chance to get a word in, secretly clicked his tongue after hearing this.
She was thinking that she was indeed a super rich person, as she seemed so indifferent to the sea view mansion worth tens of millions of dollars she was given.
