Chapter 786 Donate the Wardrobe

At the end of 2007, bad news from Wall Street began to spread among the superstructures in North America. The bankruptcy of New Century Financial Corporation last year aroused the vigilance of many people and companies, although the Federal Reserve and Wall Street continued to release good news to fool the public. , but it is no secret to Ryan that Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac are in trouble.

Combined with the few impressions from his previous life, he can roughly judge that the date of the financial crisis is getting closer.

However, these have little to do with Hollywood, at least they can't see any influence now, and the singing and dancing here is still peaceful, drunk and dreamy.

Before the New Year, Charlize's ct brand held a reception at the Beverly Hills Hilton Hotel, and a large number of celebrities from the fashion and show business circles came to congratulate.

In the past 11 months, the global sales of ct Treasure of Nature reached 211 million US dollars. Although nearly half of them came from the Disney platform, no one can deny the efforts of South African diamonds.

Nowadays, there is a saying in Hollywood that there are many Oscar queens who have won two statuettes, but there is only one Oscar queen who is the best at doing business.

Greeting the guests familiarly, shaking hands with those who came over from time to time, these basic communication did not have any difficulty for Charlize, although her face was almost frozen with a smile, she was in an excellent mood.

She is not an idiot. She knows that in the traditional Hollywood circle, she is likely to be under the pressure of Nicole Kidman and Natalie Portman forever. She simply jumped out of this circle and relied on the huge media resources in Ryan's hands And sales network, open up new business.

The current success also proves how correct her idea is.

Of course, all this is because of the full support of the people around me.

take a break.

Looking at Ryan who was standing here with him, Charlize said with concern, The guests are almost here.

Wherever I go, there will be no peace.

Ryan turned his head and glanced at the main table where Taylor, Scarlett and other ct shareholders were sitting, and it was almost full of people.

Who made you the most powerful and richest person here.

Harvey Weinstein who came over did not avoid suspicion at all. Listen clearly to what Ryan and Charlize said, If I were a woman, believe me, Ryan, I will definitely try my best to entangle you.

Trust me, Harvey. Ryan deliberately patted the fat man's arm hard,

I have no interest in you.

With the box office of several movies rising and time passing, the impact of the Miramax incident is gradually dissipating, although the loss is huge, unless they can really overthrow the Iranian government. Otherwise, everything still has to look forward.

Quentin is working on the script, so it's not convenient to come here. Harvey Weinstein also brought greetings from the talented director, He is very grateful for your continued support for his new movie.

I got a call from him. Ryan knows that the cult master rarely hangs out with the mainstream movie world.

After sending Harvey Weinstein away, Ryan saw Charlize's good friend in Hollywood. If Leonardo DiCaprio is developing horizontally, then Keanu Reeves has already achieved His goal, the failure of his career, the breakup of his girlfriend and many other things, made the face of this former 20 million club member full of decadence, even a well-fitting dress could not hide it.

Long time no see. Keanu.

After he finished greeting Charlize, Ryan shook his hand vigorously.

After shaking hands with him, Ryan didn't say much. The fall of this superstar cannot be saved. Perhaps it can be said that he has a personality in his life, but this is Hollywood that loves the new and dislikes the old, and there is not enough exposure and outstanding works, even if Monroe is reborn. It also loses value very quickly.

Pulling down her trailing evening dress, Charlize sat on the main table with Ryan on her arm. The reception was a formal reception. It is also a reception with a charitable nature, and the donations are aimed at the poor in Africa. Guests are not required to donate money, but they donate outdated items such as moldy clothes of the rich and famous as much as they can.

After a short meal time, Charlize stepped onto the small stage of the banquet hall and said a few words as the host.

I feel very lucky. CT's success is the result of the joint efforts of my partners and me.

She introduced CT's shareholders and operating team one by one, They are the cornerstone of CT, and I would like to thank them for working hard with me.

Then, she turned the topic to charity, We always have a lot of out-of-season clothes in our closet, such as my closet, there are always many clothes that I ignore silently waiting, I am soberly aware that I am alone It is impossible for a man to wear all these clothes.

I was born and raised in Africa, so I have the 'African factor' in me, and I feel a little bit guilty about not getting the most out of my wardrobe. My life values ​​have always been, 'If you don't use something, you should put it away'. Give to those in need'.

As we all know, people in many countries and regions in Africa are plagued by hunger and cold, and they lack the most basic clothing, so I decided to donate my wardrobe to help people who can help, my friends and I...

She gestured to Taylor and Scarlett, I feel very lucky to be a person who helps others. I hope that my wardrobe can bring warmth to those who need it. This idea often encourages me.

thank you all!

Amid applause, Charlize walked back.

This kind of donation will be operated through Charlize’s charitable foundation, which can be said to be one of the best ways for celebrities to earn their reputation. Just like Ryan’s charitable foundation for saving African children, Charlize’s foundation’s accounts are also quite large. Beautiful, even the most critical media can not find too many faults.

Those foundations established for tax avoidance and various other purposes, Ryan will never be confused with such foundations that require public accounts. The troubles caused by Hollywood stars because of charitable accounts are simply countless.

In other words, it is no secret in the industry that Hollywood stars use their charitable foundations to raise money. They only use a small donation to decorate the facade. As for the whereabouts of other funds, there are too many places where the accounts can be manipulated .

Also, don’t take it seriously when certain celebrities announce how much money they will donate in public. The money may take a long time to arrive, or it may never be seen again.

For example, when Ryan's charitable foundation was established. Oprah Winfrey publicly stated that she would donate half a million dollars, but the money has not yet arrived. Ryan is very skeptical that when Sandy can drive a car around Hollywood, the money will not to the account.

Ryan would not do such a shameless thing, and there are very few charitable funds of Hollywood stars that he can generously pledge to donate to.

It's one thing that he doesn't need money, but it's another thing for those guys to get away with his money.

Of course, his attitude towards Charlize's charity fund was different, and he directly signed a check for five million dollars. Anyway, there was no one at the same level as him in the field. No one else needs to see the digital action he checks out at all.

Except for the commemorative clothes when I was a child, all three of my cloakrooms are given to you.

The people sitting here are all close people, and Taylor muttered without hesitation, There is still a check for half a million dollars.

Our net worth can't be compared with Ryan's. Scarlett also had a check for half a million dollars, So, Charlie, you have to exploit Ryan more in this kind of thing.

When are you going to Africa? asked the long-haired Kristen Stewart. Are you really going to those poor tribes?

Next month. Seeing Ryan frowning worriedly, Charlize gave him a reassuring look. I will act with UNHCR.

Then... Taylor thought for a while, Then I'll go with you, my PR manager is also planning a charity show for me, why not go to Africa.

Follow UNHCR in action. The possibility of encountering danger is very small, and Ryan did not object. He thought for a while and said, Alison doesn't seem to have the title of UN Goodwill Ambassador yet?

My team is working, Taylor finished. Turning to Scarlett, What about you?

Honey... Scarlett spread her hands helplessly, My schedule doesn't allow it.

I'm still shooting Twilight. Kristen also shook her head.

This kind of time for several people to get together and whisper together only lasted for a short time. The reception inevitably turned into a social party, and many people came to make friends one after another, and even some screenwriters and producers who did not know who brought them in, to sell their ideas and projects to him.

However, most of the people were dismissed by Ryan after saying a few words. These people obviously picked the wrong occasion.

I'm Jon Lucas...

Probably seeing that Ryan wanted to socialize with other people, the brown-haired man hurriedly said, Three minutes, Ryan, I only ask for three minutes.

I remember you. Ryan nodded. The screenwriter of Rebound released by Disney in 2005.

Yes, that's me.

To be remembered by such a big man, Jon Lucas immediately knew his opportunity was coming, I have an idea about comedy, three groomsmen and the groom who are about to get married get drunk in Las Vegas, When I woke up, I found that the groom was missing...

Hearing this, Ryan raised his hand and gestured to Charlize, and Taylor and South African Diamond immediately stood in front of him tacitly, to entertain other people who came over.

Seeing Ryan doing this, Jon Lucas didn't know that it was his luck. He suppressed the excitement brought about by his rapid heartbeat, and explained the outline of the script in the most concise language.

It's a comedy set in Las Vegas, where three groomsmen and a soon-to-be-wedding groom get drunk at a bachelorette party, only to wake up to find the groom is gone and have to remember last night Everything that happens can bring back the groom and hold the wedding smoothly.

When he heard a tiger appearing in the bathroom, Ryan interrupted him.

Jon Lucas's mood sank to the bottom unconsciously. He had already sold this idea to New Line, but it was rejected. If Ryan...

Hollywood now has a Ryan Jenkins blacklist, which records those projects rejected by Ryan, and these projects will hardly attract investment in the future.

Tomorrow you go to Disney Studios to find Ms. Julius Stewart. Ryan turned to look at the tomboy, Kristen, remember to tell your mother. (To be continued...)
