In an interview, actor Zhang Songwen said:
I am almost 45 years old, still living in a rural bungalow on the outskirts of Beijing, and after almost 20 years of acting, I still can't afford to buy a house of my own.
Zhang Songwen was interviewed
Zhang Songwen also revealed: In the film and television circle, at most 0.5% of people can do food and clothing, and 99.5% of people are like him, working about eighteen hours, and the income is extremely low.
For a long time, the remuneration of actors has been the focus of public attention.
Like Zhang Songwen, who has been debuting for many years, the film remuneration is extremely low, and people who have rented a house outside Beijing for a long time really abound.
Not long ago, on a short video platform, a post-90s actor named "Haihai", he and Zhang Songwen's experience is the same.
Haihai, post-90s, Shandong Qingdao people.
In 2009, Haihai was admitted to the "Department of Performance of Communication University of China".
Qingdao post-90s actor Haihai
After graduating from university in 2012, Haihai and 26 students from the Acting Department chose to become actors together, including 13 students, including Haihai, who chose to stay in Beijing.
Beijing rent is expensive, high consumption, fierce competition, sometimes 4000+ people only compete for 3 roles, soon after graduation, Haihai's 13 classmates, they have changed careers.
Haihai was interviewed
After graduating for 9 years, Haihai rented a house for 9 years, paid a total of more than 600,000 yuan in rent, spent 4,000+ per month, and lived in the "old and broken" in Beijing Yanjiao, which is less than 30 square meters.
9 years after graduation, large and small roles, Haihai filmed dozens, including "male number one".
After 13 years of drifting north, Haihai still said: "I can't afford to buy a house in Beijing now." ”
The bitterness of the sea is also the epitome of most of the "north drifting" life.
Seeing the current situation of Haihai's life, many netizens said: Renting for 9 years, paying more than 600,000 rents, is enough to buy a hardcover house of more than 100 square meters in the hometown, is this not fragrant?
The "old and broken" where the North Drift family lives
Spend more than 600,000 yuan, in the North Sixth Ring Road for 9 years to rent "old and broken", it is reasonable to say, Haihai is not stupid, since this is the case, he must also be helpless.
Once, the agent told Haihai to go to Beijing Chaoyang for an interview, and from Yanjiao, Haihai would have to take a car for more than three hours.
After arriving on the set, Haihai dragged a tired body, just got out of the car, he desperately tried to think about the characters, in fact, he had already been pulled out of the scene by exhaustion.
Seeing the exhausted Haihai, the director said, "Hey, Haihai, what's wrong with you?" I think you're a little tired, so let's wait. ”
"Wait" means "take a nap", and if Haihai can't get a night's sleep for 1 hour, he can't slow down at all.
Haihai explained to the director: "Director, you are more responsible, I live in Yanjiao, poured a car for three hours, it is indeed not in good shape." ”
Filming scenes
The director asked Haihai in a contemptuous tone: "Alas, why do you live in Yanjiao, which is so far away?" ”
As soon as this remark came out, Haihai felt very distressed, and he and the director did not continue to chat.
Haihai was worried about continuing the conversation, and people would ask him: "You have been in Beijing for so long, why are you still so miserable?" ”
In order to maintain dignity, Haihai deliberately diverted the topic.
Every time he received a notice from his agent, Haihai panicked, after all, when he went to the set, Haihai played not a character, but a tired body, every time he went to audition, he was always tired and consumed a day's work enthusiasm.
Haihai tells the bitterness of renting
The director "knowingly asked", Haihai lived in Yanjiao, obviously because the rent was relatively cheap.
Haihai lives in Yanjiao, although the house is relatively cheap, the time cost is very high every time he travels, which makes Haihai distressed.
As of October 16, 2020, the average price of second-hand houses in Beijing was as high as 65,000+ per square meter, which also dispelled Haihai's idea of buying a house in Beijing.
Haihai likes to perform very much, for the sake of the career he loves, and does not want to leave Beijing to develop, what should Haihai do?
In March 2021, at a car show in Beijing, the caravan, entering the vision of the sea, also opened his mind.
Don't want to rent "old and broken", and want to find a more cost-effective residence, Haihai thought of a clever trick: spend 100,000 yuan to buy a trailer caravan, and then spend more than 100,000 to buy an SUV.
Sea sea and motorhome
After buying a caravan, Haihai not only did not have to rent a house, he could also change his living environment anytime and anywhere, spending a total of less than 300,000 yuan to buy a mobile "castle".
Haihai thinks that buying a car is more cost-effective than renting a house: after two years of using the caravan, I can sell it, so the loss is small, and the driving cost is not much.
It is understood that Beijing's parking lots are also classified: between the third ring road and the fifth ring road, it is a second-class parking lot; outside the fifth ring road to the fifth ring road, it is a three-type parking lot, and the cost is fixed.

According to the charging standard, Haihai's caravan can arbitrarily choose the location of the parking lot according to the location of his work.
After a few months, after careful accounting, the parking fee of Haihai trailer caravan is about 900 yuan per month on average, and if he parks elsewhere for a month, the cost is only between 300 and 400 yuan.
Haihai usually likes to exercise, after having a caravan, he also went to the nearby gym to do a monthly card or a seasonal card, the total cost ranges from 100 to 300, every day after the completion of fitness, Haihai will take a bath in the gym.
In addition, Haihai does not have to pay property management fees, as long as he buys a solar charging board, he does not even have to pay electricity bills.
In this way, the cost of living in Haihai will be greatly reduced, after having a caravan, Haihai consumes about 33 yuan per day, which not only solves the housing pressure, but also brings convenience, happiness, freedom and fulfillment to life.
Haihai's motorhome is only 10 square meters.
In the Haihai video, he installs a sunshade outside the RV, and sometimes, Haihai will cook in the outdoor kitchen and occasionally drink a cup of coffee, not to mention how comfortable life is!
The bedroom of the caravan is a large bed of 1.4m ×2m, with a sink, mirror, gas stove, sink and so on.
The living room is not big, you can make some coffee, you can also eat, shake the table down, it becomes a 1.3m × 1.9m large bed, on the windowsill, there are two stereos, one connected to the sea guitar, the other connected to his mobile phone.
After work, Haihai lives in a 10-square-meter caravan hut, although the sparrow is small, it is complete, since having a caravan, Haihai's daily happiness is increasing.
Depending on the location of filming, Haihai can change the location of the parking lot at any time.
Sometimes, Haihai will park the caravan near the park, open the car door, you can smell the flowers full of flowers; sometimes, he will park the caravan to the beach, pull open the curtains, near the sea, after getting off, there is an endless beach.
This is the life that Haihai wants.
Before buying a car, Haihai lived in the Yanjiao suburbs outside the sixth ring road of Beijing, "old and broken", every time he traveled, it took three or four hours, after going to the set, basically only tired, due to poor rest, poor state, Haihai had lost job opportunities.
Although the caravan can be moved, Haihai believes that the free place is not necessarily suitable, the living environment, the most important thing is quiet, many people and many cars, or too close to the filming, are not suitable for rest.
As we all know, living and working in big cities, the most expensive thing is the "cost of time".
If you spend three or four hours a day to go to work, if you go to work in a big city, after arriving at the unit, it is estimated that the passion for the day's work is gone, and when it comes to the end of the work, they only hope to go home early to rest.
The actor industry, the competition is also particularly fierce, debut for many years, the film remuneration is extremely low, like Zhang Songwen and Haihai can not afford to buy a house in the north drift, really abound.

Haihai through the purchase of a car, he solved the housing pressure in Beijing, 9 years to pay more than 600,000 rent, living in Yanjiao less than 30 square meters of "old and broken", Haihai feels too much loss.
Now Haihai, every time he receives a notice from his agent, he is not in a hurry.
Even if the filming location and the place where you live are far away, as long as you receive a notice, Haihai can immediately pack your bags, and then camp near the filming, and you can also eat a supper, make a cup of coffee, and sleep peacefully.
As an actor, Haihai can only have a better state to work if he rests well.
Haihai and Ni Dahong took a group photo
There is a saying that is right: the mountains and rivers are full of doubts and no way, and if you change your way of life, it is a piece of willow and dark flowers.
The caravan solves the housing and living problems of Haihai, and we also wish Haihai's future acting career more and more smooth.
