My Name is Kobe Bryant

Chapter 153 The Journey of Buying a House (Please recommend, please collect)

"Mr. Glen Rice, could you please summarize the reasons for the loss in this game?"

"Mr. Queen Bee, please explain why you scored 22 points in the first three quarters, but the defense against Kobe in the last quarter was nothing?"

"Kobe said that when he started defending you in the fourth quarter, you spat trash at him like crazy. What did you say? Was it a B word?"

"May I ask what you think of Kobe who scored 3 steals and 2 blocks on you in the fourth quarter. He said in an interview after the game that it is easier to defend you than O'Neal's grandma."

Glen Rice wanted to speak but shed tears first, how to answer this question.

No more, my All-Star is gone.

Not only is it an All-Star, but my current historical status is not even as good as O'Neal's grandma.

Want to cry, but no tears stay.

At this moment, Kobe has finished the interview. Back in the locker room for physical therapy, Jeff is stretching him.

"Kobe, I met an old Chinese doctor, his acupuncture is amazing! I'll buy a pair of needles, do you want to try it?"

"Um, Jeff, I would like to try acupuncture, but not your acupuncture. Could you please study for two more years before experimenting on the human body?"

While the two were chatting and discussing physical therapy methods, Kobe's phone rang.

"Boss, congratulations on winning today's game! That guy Les was badly repaired by you!" Pelinka's voice came from over there.

"Small, easy." Kobe didn't care, and it couldn't be easier for him to clean up a shooting player.

"That's the big deal! eBay's first-year signing bonus of 3 million yuan has been deposited into your account!"

"Great! Rob, I don't worry about your work." Kobe was overjoyed, this is really good news, and now he has more than 3.9 million dollars in his hand.

"By the way, boss, if you don't want the group of vampires from the tax bureau to come to your door. We need to complete the fixed asset investment as soon as possible. I have selected several properties in Los Angeles according to your request. You can visit them at any time."

"Understood, I'll take a look after training tomorrow morning."

The next day happened to be a rest day, so Kobe decided to go out for a walk. Since coming to Los Angeles, he has lived in an apartment near the team's practice facility, and now it's time to buy a house in the suburbs.

Downtown Los Angeles is conveniently located, but still a little noisy. Although it is convenient to go to the arena for training, as a star, you can't live in an apartment all your life.

Although some stars, such as Dennis Rodman, really live in apartments all the time, in the eyes of most people, the price of millionaires living in apartments is still a bit low.

Kobe has several requirements for choosing a house. The first one is that there must be arenas and gyms around. These are hard indicators. If there are no these two things near his home in the future, then Kobe will definitely not be able to live.

Training is Kobe's bounden duty. Unless he retires, Kobe will not relax for a day.

The second requirement is seclusion. Kobe doesn't want to be guarded by paparazzi all day after his residence is exposed, so he must find a high-end community.

The third is that he can't live too far away, he doesn't want to take a helicopter anymore. Kobe didn't plan to touch the unlucky means of transportation like a helicopter in his life!

After such a round of screening, it took Pelinka a lot of effort to delineate a few communities. He contacted the real estate experience and took the key to the house.

The next morning, Bryant completed the first round of morning training. Kobe likes to put his cardio training in the morning, which can make him sweat a little, but not overworked.

Pelinka led the real estate sales manager to Kobe's apartment building early in the morning.

"Morning BOSS~" Pelinka greeted Kobe with a smile.

Kobe has 4 million in the account, excluding a series of things such as the tax rate, he can get at least one hundred thousand dollars based on 4% of the income, which is simply astronomical for a broker who is just getting started.

In this era, the average income in Los Angeles is only 10,000 to 20,000 US dollars a year, and the income of more than 100,000 US dollars is comparable to those of the top elites on Wall Street.

These incomes are all thanks to Kobe. If Kobe didn't have the insight to know people, which law firm he might still be in now.

"Rob! Good morning." Kobe, who had just finished breakfast, was wearing a gray jumper and a pair of penny silver pants. He looked energetic and full of mature and confident aura that his peers did not possess.

After exchanging pleasantries, the group embarked on a trip to visit houses. In Los Santos, luxury houses are everywhere. Los Angeles is on the east side of the Pacific Ocean along the coasts of San Pedro Bay and Santa Monica Bay, backed by the San Gabriel Mountains. It can be said that there are mountains and rivers, and outstanding people.

Los Angeles is located in the Mediterranean climate zone with a mild climate. Even in winter, the daytime temperature often exceeds 20 degrees Celsius, attracting a large number of wealthy people to come for vacation and retirement.

Sunshine, sand, youth, vitality. It constitutes a wonderful Los Angeles, but there are also many dark sides under the glamorous appearance of Los Angeles. Los Angeles is the eighth largest economy in the world. When we mention here, we think of Hollywood, sunny beaches, freedom and fashion, but at the same time, it is also one of the cities with the most homeless people in the United States.

In summer, the daytime temperature in Los Angeles often exceeds 35 degrees, and even forest fires are often caused by heat waves. These wildfires have brought continuous smoke to the mountains northeast of Los Angeles.

This time, of course, Kobe would not choose to continue to buy that piece of house. This time, Kobe chose a group of villas near Dopanga State Park in the southwest.

This piece is backed by the Santa Monica Mountains, and about 5 kilometers south can reach Will Rogers Beach, surrounded by mountains and water. About 10 kilometers to the east is Beverly Hills. It's just that the Great Western Forum is a bit far away, and it takes about an hour to drive including the congestion time.

It seems that visiting different communities consumes Kobe's entire daytime. After looking at a dozen or so villas, some are big and some are small, some are luxuriously decorated, and some are just empty shells.

The community is also an important part of Kobe's inspection. What kind of neighbors are very important. In a good community, the chance of crime will be greatly reduced. And even in the top cities in the United States like Los Angeles or New York, a chaotic neighborhood or slum will be full of gangs with guns. Kobe doesn't want to be woken up by gunshots in the morning, so the community inspection is very important.

For the sake of future children (strike out), educational resources near the community are also very important. Fortunately, the educational resources in Los Angeles are very good. With the celebrity effect, it is very easy for Kobe to enroll his children in any school.

Kobe's first house viewing tour was over, and he had a few favorite choices, and he decided to make a purchase after careful consideration. He is not a brat, it is impossible to settle this matter on the spot in such a rash manner.

After all, he is still a small millionaire now, at least he must become a billionaire to be proud, right?
