Why do celebrities migrate abroad?
On this issue, it seems to be tacit among the stars, but in the hearts of fans, it is still a difficult puzzle.
Obviously, in China, they enjoy the admiration of fans and live under the flash, which can be described as a glorious ancestor. However, even so, there are still people who are willing to leave fame and fortune and plunge into unfamiliar foreign countries. Behind this, what do they figure out?
Moving to the United States is expensive
After a number of Hong Kong stars were bombed to immigrate abroad, another actress also exposed her life in the United States, and did not shy away from it at all.
Recently, actress Jiang Chen took the initiative to share the news of her move to the United States in her social accounts, and it was even revealed that she had lived here for a year or two. I thought it was a show off, but I didn't want to spit it out from beginning to end.
According to Jiang Chen, after she arrived in the United States, she could only rent a house because she did not have a green card. But in fact, in the United States, without a green card, not only is it not qualified to buy a house, but it is also not qualified to rent a house. The reason why Jiang Chen can rent a house now is that after all kinds of twists and turns, he found a landlord with a relatively good personality, and the other party did not mind, so as to complete her.
The problem with the house was solved, as well as the problem with the furniture.
As we all know, renting a house in China, from beds and cabinets to basic living furniture such as washing machines and refrigerators, is equipped by landlords. But Jiang Chen, who had just arrived in the United States, looked at the empty house without any furniture, and was really helpless. In the end, you have to pay for the furniture yourself.
When I first arrived there, I spent a lot of money on renting and buying furniture, but there are still many places to spend money.
It's like talking about tipping.
In foreign countries, many places require tips, and the amount is quite large. If you eat a meal out, then you have to tip the waiter at least 10% of the meal money, and some places even clearly mark the price to 18%, which shows the high consumption.
All kinds of living habits that are completely different from those in China make Jiang Chen spit bitterly in the video: it has been a year or two since he came to the United States, but he has not integrated into local life for one or two years, and there are still many places that are not used to it.
I didn't dare to go out this night
In addition to life problems, Jiang Chen is also worried about safety.
Over the years, the Internet has broken out how many international students have disappeared abroad, but in the end how many can be found. Some even recovered the corpses, but they did not even know who the murderer was, which caused many Chinese living abroad to worry about their personal safety.
Coupled with the difference between China's "gun" freedom, it adds a sense of fear to their hearts.
In fact, this question can also be seen in foreign tourists who have traveled to China.
Today, with the development of self-media, we can see tourists who come to China today and praise the Chinese environment. Especially at night, China's 24-hour convenience stores, barbecue stalls everywhere on the road, and many customers shopping show the level of safety.
Therefore, Jiang Chen said that after coming abroad, he did not dare to go out at night. In the past, there was also the habit of running at night, and I was worried about safety here, so I tried not to go out at night and hid at home to rest.
For all the above problems, Jiang Chen really has a bitter word. I can only be alone in the field and remember the happiness of my motherland.
But even so, he is still willing to give up his fame and prosperity in the motherland and take responsibility for his own choices. I am afraid that the only thing that can be done is to appeal on social media and alleviate the embarrassment of people in a foreign land.
What is the future?
In fact, not only Jiang Chen alone has talked about the difficulty of moving abroad.
In the early years, Jiang Dawei, who had achieved fame, moved to Vancouver with his family. I thought I could take my life to a higher level, but I didn't want to keep my previous happiness.
After going abroad, the family needed money to eat and wear and their daughters to go to school, but in Vancouver, no one knew Jiang Dawei at all, and the original business performance money that they had thought of did not work at all. It wasn't long before the family was in financial trouble.
Not only that, being abroad, I originally thought that I had met a noble person, but I did not think that the other party was leading Jiang Dawei, so that after receiving the job, he took all his salary. Even at that time, he tricked Jiang Dawei into renting a house and threatened him to write down an IOU with a debt of 900,000 yuan, which was even worse.
Faced with various difficulties, Jiang Dawei could only return to China alone, make money at home, and let his family abroad have living expenses, so as to solve the family's living problems.
Between Jiang Dawei's choice, I don't know whether Jiang Chen, who has a high reputation in China, whether as an actor or as a host, has always been popular, and whether Jiang Chen will compromise for life.
After all, in the Chinese environment, stars are not highly paid. Maybe coming back to shoot a few scenes can solve the urgent need, which is really a good way. Or, Jiang Chen, who really can't adapt to life abroad, will one day return to the motherland and start his previous brilliant life again.
I just don't know, will the Chinese people be able to accept her when the time comes? And this actress who left the entertainment industry for a year or two, does the entertainment industry have her place after returning to China? Everything is unknown.
Here, we can only wish Jiang Chen all the best and live as you please.
