Chapter 380 Level
The venue for the Zhenhua Charity Auction Gala is still the venue on the Bund. All major events related to the entertainment industry seem to like to be held here.
As the financial and entertainment industries gradually move south, rich and famous people increasingly like to settle in Shanghai. However, because the population is expanding too fast, Shanghai has also increased restrictions on local household registration. Now I want to become a Shanghai person. , it’s not as easy as becoming a Beijing native.
Luo Quan did have the qualifications, but she felt it was not necessary at all.
Moving around, aren’t they all with Huaxia household registration? Those who try every means to get a Shanghai registered permanent residence are just to make it easier for their descendants to study locally.
Of course, Shanghai's local household registration does have many benefits, and it is one of the most prosperous metropolises in Asia. It is full of entertainment, entertainment, and money, which is really desirable.
Water flows to lower places and people go to higher places. This is actually understandable.
However, Luo Quan felt that his hometown of Yuzhou was also very good, and he would probably settle there in the future, so he had no plans to transfer his registered residence to Shanghai.
Tonight, the Bund is full of stars. Everywhere you look along the way is filled with luxury cars. Reporters are guarding the red carpet with long guns and cannons. The flashlights are always working and cannot be stopped for a moment.
At this time, a roar like a wild beast came from the distance on the road. This was a unique roar that can only be emitted by a high-power sports car engine. The sound had already been heard before the car was seen.
However, on today's occasion, sports cars and so on are all conventional vehicles. Surrounded by a circle of Maybach, Bentley, and Rolls-Royce, any sports car feels instantly shorter.
It is also because of knowing this that celebrities who drive sports cars today are more low-key, driving slowly, stopping, and then the driver drives away slowly.
This person obviously put the car in neutral and stepped on the accelerator at a slow speed. It was clear that he wanted to show off.
This immediately attracted the attention of all reporters and celebrities still on the red carpet, wanting to see who was so beautiful.
Under the focus of countless amazed eyes, a silver-black Lamborghini slowly drove over. The beauty exuding from its entire body reflected the top level of the human automobile industry. This is a car that can drive all car lovers crazy. beautiful car.
"It's poison!" A knowledgeable person immediately revealed the identity of the car.
There are only nine poison cars in the world, and there is currently only one in mainland China. The owner is the hottest international singer at the moment - Luo Quan!
If it's Luo Quan, no matter how stinky she is, she deserves it because she has such qualifications.
The reporters quickly raised their cameras and prepared to start work.
Luo Quan is now well-known in the entertainment industry. The number of red carpet appearances he attends in a year is less than the number of others in a week. He must dress up for such big occasions.
Every fool knows how beautiful Luo Quan will be when he is dressed up for the occasion. This is a real traffic code!
However, just as the reporters were on alert, Poison slowly drove past the red carpet and into the parking lot.
What is this for? People were confused.
The answer is that Luo Quan drove here by himself. Wouldn't it cause congestion if he parked next to the red carpet?
After parking the car in the parking lot, Luo Quan kicked off his sneakers and quickly put on high heels.
Today, everything on her body, except for the bag in her hand, is Chanel.
The dress is a black and purple double-strap dress, very cool.
It was already very cold in Shanghai at the end of November, and it would probably be very cold when we went out later. Luo Quan took his bag and went straight to the red carpet.
There is no signature rule on the red carpet. You can enter the venue directly without stopping.
However, most celebrities will not miss this great opportunity to show their faces. They usually stay on the red carpet for a while and accept interviews from reporters and media.
After all, the auction venue will be crowded with big names, and there are only so many cameras, so it is impossible to take care of everyone. For those second- and third-tier celebrities, the red carpet is the best exposure venue tonight.
"Luo Quan, can I interview you?"
"Luo Quan, what do you think of the title Mozart of the East?"
"Luo Quan, your new album broke the Chinese album sales record, can you tell me your thoughts?"
"Luo Quan, how do you evaluate your performance at the Shangyi Music Competition a few days ago?"
"Luo Quan, can you tell us about your experience of performing with your brother?"
As soon as Luo Quan walked on the red carpet, a barrage of questions and microphones came to her. She had a professional fake smile on her face. Although her legs were shaking with cold, she still stopped to answer:
"I don't want to be the Mozart of the East. I'm just a singer who wants to bring good songs to everyone. Good rankings in albums and competitions are inseparable from the support of fans. I will continue to work hard in the future.
As for the cooperation with Leon, there is not much to say. I wish him a happy birthday and debut anniversary! "
After saying that, he turned around and walked quickly towards the venue, leaving behind reporters who looked confused.
Along the way, other actresses were also wearing evening gowns, most of which were cooler than Luo Quan's.
In the cold wind, even though I had goosebumps all over my body, I still forced myself to smile and show my most beautiful side to compete with other actresses.
And those who didn't need this amount of traffic, such as Luo Quan, just kept walking forward, wanting to get into the venue quickly to blow on the heater.
There is a sharp contrast in the hierarchy of stars here.
But even so, reporters are more willing to use their cameras to capture Luo Quan's back like a runaway princess.
It can only be said that the traffic between the two is not of the same dimension at all.
"Huh, it's getting warmer!" Luo Quan stepped into the venue hall in one step, and the oncoming warmth made her face, which was stiffened by the wind, turn a little more red.
"Hello, please follow me this way." A welcoming lady came over and said to Luo Quan very politely.
In fact, the hall is separated from the venue by a corridor, and there are very obvious road signs. As long as the eyes are not decorated, you can find the way.
However, it cannot be said that the organizer is professional and hired quite a few reception ladies in order to make the guests feel at home.
Arriving at the entrance of the venue, Luo Quan seemed to have entered a second world.
The place is bustling with people, smiling and cheering each other, calling each other brothers and sisters.
Here, the old are respected and the young are respected, and the old faces are full of red and green.
Luo Quan sneezed, the smell of cologne in the air was really strong.
What a bunch of local dogs and foreign farts. The Chinese people have the lowest body odor rate in the world, only 6%. They don’t know why they imitate foreigners in wearing perfume.
People are trying to suppress their own body odor. Is this because they are afraid that their smell is not strong enough?
It's winter and the ventilation isn't that good. It looks like I'm going to suffer tonight.
The location of the venue was arranged by the organizer. Luo Quan looked at the location assigned to her in the email...the seventh table from the left in the second row.
This is the first time I didn’t sit in the first row!
Luo Quan was a little surprised. In the past, when she attended any evening party or award ceremony, except for the time when she just debuted last year, she would always sit in the first row.
So all the guests sitting in the first row this time are not simple.
Luo Quan came to his seat and sat down. There was a circle of unopened mineral water and some tissues on the table. Other than that, there were just some decorations. It was really simple.
I don’t know if she came too early, but she was the only one at this table.
Before coming, she asked Wen Xia. Girls' Generation was originally invited, but because she had a variety show schedule, she didn't come, otherwise Luo Quan would still have a companion.
Without acquaintances, Luo Quan could only lower his head and play with his mobile phone.
An entry about "Zhenhua Charity Auction Gala" has already appeared on the Weibo hot search. Several female celebrities who came earlier have also been on the hot search. She is probably going to be there soon.
In the past, when marketing the female celebrities attending these evening parties, the media would use the adjective "beautiful" which has become a bad word in the market.
But since Luo Quan became the most beautiful in the world, this adjective seems to have become her exclusive adjective.
Especially after Liang Yan secretly wore Luo Quan's dress and was ridiculed by the crowd, almost no actress would use the word "beautiful" to market herself. They all replaced it with "super A", "splendid face", "perfect face", "Sa", "Gongqi"... etc. I really don't know what these words mean unless I do some research.
"Hey, Luo Quan!" came a voice as dull as thunder and slightly hoarse.
Luo Quan raised his head and smiled in surprise: "Director Jiang Wen!"
The person who greeted her was director Jiang Wen who asked her to compose the theme song for the movie last time.
Although the two have never met, Luo Quan was still quite impressed by Director Jiang Wen's highly recognizable appearance and voice.
As for Jiang Wen, there is no need to go out of his way to understand Luo Quan. Her photos are everywhere on the Internet. What kind of recognition is needed for the most beautiful face in the world?
"What a coincidence. Are you sitting at this table too?" Jiang Wen sat down next to Luo Quan.
One table can accommodate eight people, and the distance between each seat is relatively large.
Luo Quan nodded and smiled: "It's quite a coincidence. I thought a great director like you could sit in the first row, but I didn't expect you to sit here too."
"Hey, I'm not a great director. I just made a few movies that ordinary people can't understand. None of them were big hits at the box office." Jiang Wen waved his hand and smiled, "By the way, the song you wrote is really good. Ah, "The Sun Also Rises" is also well-known, and it feels like it is a perfect match for my movie!"
"Haha, that's an award. It's a pity that my level is not as good as Mozart's. Fortunately, you don't mind it."
Jiang Wen chuckled: "I said this as a joke at the time, but I didn't expect you to take it seriously.
But there is one thing to say. Among the people I know, your talent is this! "
Director Jiang Wen gave a thumbs up.
Jiang Wen was born in a large courtyard in the capital. He had always been arrogant and seldom convinced others. If you can give Luo Quan a thumbs up, it can be said that you quite recognize her composition level.
"It's an award. It's all because of the good support from my peers." Luo Quan joked with a smile.
Jiang Wen also laughed when he heard this.
It’s no secret that Chinese music is getting worse year by year. If it hadn’t been for the fact that he couldn’t find the right person to compose for the movie, Jiang Wen wouldn’t have waited until the movie was finished to find Luo Quan.
"By the way, you are also interested in charity? I feel like you are not particularly interested in this kind of celebrity party." Jiang Wen raised his chin with his palm and asked Luo Quan curiously.
Luo Quan replied in a matter-of-fact tone: "Of course I'm interested. If you make money, you must give back to society.
Our ancestors said it well: If you are poor, you can only benefit yourself; if you are rich, you can help the world.
In the past, when I had no ability, I had to rely on government and social assistance. Now that I have the ability, I must give back to society. Isn’t this a natural thing? "
Jiang Wen smiled softly: "If everyone thinks like you, there will be so many students in China who don't even have enough to eat."
Luo Quan was confused: "Aren't you here to contribute to charity?"
Jiang Wen leaned back: "It's not my turn to contribute, and I don't need to contribute in this way."
"how do I say this?"
"Spend money to eliminate disasters, do you understand what I mean?"
Luo Quan was puzzled at first, then seemed to understand something, but then asked again: "Are you talking about the first game or the second game?"
There will be two auctions. In the first one, the organizer will sell the collection himself, and all the proceeds will be donated.
The second auction was for collectibles sold by wealthy foreigners, and the auction price was only a small percentage.
"Of course it's the first one. The second one is a serious auction. It's said that there are a lot of good things."
After thinking for a while, Luo Quan said: "So every year, rich people come here to spend money to ward off disasters. Does this mean that the organizer of this Zhenhua charity auction has a relatively young background?"
Jiang Wen smiled slightly: "Let's give these unkind people a chance to spend money to buy peace of mind. Instead of transferring money abroad, it is better to donate some money to charity every year and gain a good reputation."
Luo Quan sneered: "I thought there really were such conscientious capitalists in this world, but I didn't expect them to be just puppets."
However, this puppet is still very necessary, at least it can squeeze out some money every year.
"By the way, does this protection fee have to be paid by every rich person who comes here?" Luo Quan suddenly became curious, "I think there are a lot of rich people coming this time. What if I don't have enough money and can't photograph others?"
"There is a target. Donate up to a certain amount in a few years. If you don't get it this time, just try next time. If it doesn't work, just donate. As long as you want to do charity, there will always be a way."
Luo Quan nodded: "That's true."
I really didn’t expect that the Zhenhua Charity Auction actually had government backing.
But yes, without a backer of this level, it would be impossible to invite so many celebrities and wealthy people every year, and still have so many precious collections.
I just don’t know if these collections are worth anything. If they are all modern imitations, then it can only be said that the organizers are too thief.
But even if it is fake, the rich people who are invited still have to send money.
Looking at the fat-bellied rich people around him, Luo Quan sighed deeply.
Compared with the assets of these people, what is the little money donated? The highest price achieved at previous auction evenings was only over 10 million.
Moreover, it is not known whether the money will actually reach the people who need it.
