Chapter 561: Sending Diamonds
It's time for a funeral. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Zhang Nan accompanied little Charlie, modern Western funerals are served by funeral homes "one-stop", religious ceremonies and commemorative ceremonies are carried out in funeral homes, and funerals are also sent by funeral home hearses.
This saves a lot of hassle.
But there is a problem: the deceased cannot be left alone in a house, there must be someone to keep a watch.
The wake wants relatives and friends, but the problem is that apart from Charlie herself and Dean's family, Zhang Nan doesn't know where her father's relatives and friends are.
Dean wasn't very familiar with her father's family either, and Kelly was also familiar with a few of Charlie's mother's friends, Gerda, but those friends were obviously not appropriate to come to the funeral home.
What to do?
Publish an obituary in the newspaper, count a few if you can come, the second distant cousin will not come if he is killed, and it will not be good if none of the friends of the deceased Charles come to see it.
Naturally, there is a paralegal to deal with this, and the local newspapers will publish it, and I will see the newspaper tomorrow morning.
What to do tonight?
Charlie said that she was going to wake for her father, so Zhang Nan had to accompany her, but fortunately, it would all end the day after tomorrow.
Two or three people alone can't do it, so the bodyguards make up the numbers, and they have to watch the lively - according to the custom here, you can't sing, play movies, play mahjong, or play poker, and more people always seem popular.
Forget that Zhang Nan can't play mahjong, and he won't be able to play mahjong for two lifetimes.
Back at the hotel, Kelly accompanied the little girl, and Zhang Nan found Dean.
"Do me a favor, find a way to get a diamond necklace these days. β
Dean heard this and said, "How old do you want to be?"
"Ten or twenty carats are always needed. β
"What style?"
Zhang Nan thought for a while and said, "Just keep it simple." I would like to thank Adjani for being able to help on this trip. β
"No, no, Alan, it's not appropriate, at least not right now. No one would give a thank you gift like this during the funeral, it's completely inappropriate..."
Dean doesn't care what your relationship with Rose FranΓ§aise is, it's a kind reminder from a friend.
"Don't worry, I said brother, I'm not that stupid. β
I'll have to wait until the funeral is over.
"Okay, I'll go say hello and try to be as high-grade as possible. β
Needless to say, the price, knowing that Alan is not short of money.
In the afternoon, let James Anderson and Mareo Adria accompany Adjani, plus one of Dean's men, to downtown Pretoria to buy clothes.
Adjani told Zhang Nan after lunch that she would wait until the funeral was over before returning to France, and Zhang Nan immediately thought that she needed someone to accompany her out.
Attending a funeral requires the right clothes, and Adjani, who went to Ibiza for a walk, couldn't possibly bring the right outfit for the occasion.
Not only did she have to buy it, but almost everyone who attended the funeral needed it.
No need to customize, count the size, just send someone to purchase.
The bodyguards can't wear the same outfit yet, otherwise they will have to have friends and colleagues of the deceased come, and when they see a large group of strong men in black pressing down, it is estimated that the feeling will definitely not be better.
This is a funeral, but not a "Godfather" burial.
I don't have time to match Adjani by myself, Zhang Nan is busy: call New York and ask people to notify the school that has been contacted before, explaining that the student may be late to enroll, and Charlie, who is not in a good state, can not be allowed to go to school immediately.
There is also a plan to shoot a documentary that has to be postponed, and the snack has not had that mind recently.
These are all minor problems, and private schools are rich and master. Filming TV Zhang Nan is the boss and investor, and the team was temporarily disbanded in advance, and he said it when he wanted to shoot, and he didn't let those people suffer anyway.
Then, it's time for the funeral.
......
On the night of January 16, Zhang Nan took Charlie to Paris to send the enthusiastic Adjani home before returning to New York.
Flee South Africa, Charlie's sad place, where her mother's case of Jelda will not be settled in three or five months.
The person is released on bail, but cannot leave Pretoria, according to the law.
And Gerda didn't live with Charlie a few days ago, and of course she didn't go home, but rented a house.
killed the child's father, and met Charlie a few times, and no one was comfortable together.
Zhang Nan feels that the relationship between the mother and daughter may not be as close as in the "previous life" in the future, and there is no way, because the tragedy has changed.
The incident happened suddenly, and Zhang Nandu delayed his trip to Botswana and Zimbabwe for a few days, not to mention his treasure hunt plan with Dean and Martin.
It is not advisable to hunt for treasures in summer, so we will talk about it in the winter of South Africa, and we will go to the two countries bordering South Africa because the advance personnel sent by the "Xingchen International Diamond Group" have already solved several land problems there.
As the boss, Zhang Nan has to go and see.
No matter how bold the people are, how prolific the land is, the "daredevils" sent by "Xingchen International" have even arrived in Angola: Cuba began to withdraw its troops from Angola five days ago, and it is too late to send people to do that preliminary work.
De Beers' speed will not be slow, and he is ready to grab turf!
Now that you've decided to fight De Beers, it's time to grab all the resources you can grab.
Either don't do it, since you have done it, you have to do it to the end, do it absolutely!
......
After this bunch of things, I feel that Charlie has spoken a lot less, and she is more tired of Zhang Nan.
The plane arrived in Paris an hour away, Zhang Nan and Adjani had just finished talking about the movie, and wanted to invite Adjani to the United States to film at the right time.
Xiao Nizi came out of her room and saw that Zhang Nan didn't speak, so she sat quietly next to each other.
"Charlie, really don't stay in Paris for two days?"
Adjani had previously invited Charlize Theron to stay in Paris for a few days.
"No, Sister Lisa, I still want to go to New York. β
Adjani smiled, "Then I'm free to call." Recently, I don't have any filming schedules, so I want to talk to someone and come to Paris. β
Xiao Nizi said "En".
Zhang Nan gave his bedroom to Adjani, and slept in the living room before. After the two of them finished talking, they felt like they had to get things done.
took a small bag that Guan Xingquan put there from the side, took out a small gift box from the inside and handed it to Adjani.
"A small gift, Charlie and I specially prepared it. I won't say much kind words between friends, I hope you can accept it. β
Adjani took it, didn't open it for the time being, and asked, "What is it?"
In the Western way, there is no need to twist and pinch, and the gift can be opened on the spot.
At this time, Charlize Theron said: "I helped choose, a small diamond, and you should be a good match." β
"Diamonds?"
Adjani's next move was a bit unexpected by Zhang Nan.
If you refuse, you will hand the box back, and if you accept it, you may put it aside, otherwise according to the custom, small gifts can be opened on the spot, and the valuable ones are not suitable for looking at in person.
But Adjani just has a personality and opens it directly.
