Chapter 1499: New Footprints (Part II)
At two o'clock in the afternoon of July 1, 2015, in the banquet hall of the Capital Hotel, 150 stars, directors, producers, etc. who can be ranked in the entertainment industry gathered together. Here today, Zhao Yongqi is the main one, with a personal contribution of 300 million, and the rest of the celebrities who were invited or came to join in the fun, each contributed one million, with a total capital of 450 million yuan, The trial operation and listing ceremony of the "All-Star Poverty Alleviation and Child Welfare Fund" will be held here.
In early May, when it was reported that Zhao Yongqi intended to set up such a fund, he still decided that he wanted everyone to contribute. But later, after a deep conversation with Xu Wenwei and Qian Qiming, he finally dispelled the idea of starting, and instead changed his way and invited those big-name stars and directors he knew to cooperate, but he only received a maximum of one million.
This kind of thing is usually changed, and the people who may be invited still have some ideas, maybe they are reluctant, but after the incident is exposed and sought after by the whole people, it is a big thing to be able to join this plan. Suddenly, Zhao Yongqi's phone was often connected, and when he said it understood, the other party immediately agreed happily.
Those who were in a hurry even paid the full amount to his account on the same day, and even a few of them called for millions of dollars, but in the end the excess was returned.
Qian Qiming and Xu Wenwei's meaning is very clear, if this incident is not exposed, then it is a good thing for Zhao Yongqi to wait for himself to be established, and then to accept other people's capital injections after the operation is stable. But now that it has been exposed, if you still insist on going your own way, especially pushing away those big stars who take the initiative to come to the door, it will give people a feeling that they just want to be in the limelight. This is not any good for the accumulation of contacts in his circle, and it can even be said to be a very bad thing.
The words of the two great directors undoubtedly gave Zhao Yongqi another perception of the world, and after really acting according to their opinions, he also found that this was indeed much better than previously expected.
A million is a lot of money for the average person, but for this group, it's just a gorgeous necklace or a few designer suits. However, just such a little money that they don't look down on can make their prestige stronger, and these people are naturally eager to get it.
For example, at today's listing ceremony, none of the people involved in this project were absent, which can be seen.
In the banquet hall of the Capital Hotel, which is closely guarded by hundreds of security guards, many people have arrived one after another since 1 pm. At about half past one hour, 500 multimedia people from more than 200 media outlets across the country, and 150 invited guests, had already filled this hall that could accommodate 1,000 people for dinner. At the press conference in the form of a buffet reception, you can see beautiful ladies in dresses or gentlemen in suits and leather shoes everywhere at the moment.
At 1:50, when Zhao Yongqi, who had been waiting upstairs for half an hour, entered the banquet hall from the main entrance with Ziye and Park Xiuzhi, the audience suddenly burst into applause.
Zhao Yongqi, who was bathed in the flash and waved his hand and walked slowly, was wearing a pure white suit today, and his dark purple tie set off his already fair skin even more white and handsome.
Entering through the main entrance at the end of the hall, Zhao Yongqi walked directly to the central main stage and stood in front of the standing microphone amid constant waves and nods.
The starry charming man, with a warm smile on his face at the moment, first bowed slightly, and then gently pressed his hand, so that the applause of the audience stopped, and then he used that magnetic voice, smiled and said softly: "First of all, thank you seniors, brothers, sisters, younger brothers, and sisters for coming." Well, in fact, there are few brothers and sisters who can be counted as my younger siblings. In the circle, I'm an old man, and I don't know when I'm going to do it. Hey~~"
The humorous opening remarks of "Hahaha......" drew a chuckle from everyone.
Xingmu turned around for a moment, and Zhao Yongqi raised his voice and said: "Today is a big day for us to work together to establish the All-Star Poverty Alleviation and Child Assistance Public Welfare Fund, which is specially used for education in poor mountainous areas, help for orphaned children, and provide education funds. Here, on behalf of every child, student, compatriots, and our younger brothers and sisters who will benefit in the future, I would like to thank you for your great support!"
Bang Bang Bang ...... There was a burst of applause that lasted for a long time, and it didn't slowly subside until Zhao Yongqi pressed down his arm three times.
"To be honest, at the beginning, when Director Xu and Director Qian suggested that I send invitations to my friends and seniors, I was really embarrassed. Because, I feel that it is for one of my ideas, so I will change the way to ask you for money. To be honest, I was afraid that you would want to eat my eyes when you saw me in the future. Zhao Yongqi spread his hands and shrugged his shoulders, as if relieved: "But fortunately, I saw that everyone was smiling from the bottom of my heart today, so that I don't have to have nightmares when I go back tonight." ”
"Haha......"
In a burst of chuckles, Zhao Yongqi's voice was full of magnetism, with a little joy, his face gradually became solemn, and he raised his voice and said seriously: "Until today, I can intuitively see that I am not the only one who wants to help others and our compatriots. Everyone here is a truly kind-hearted person who deserves my respect and the respect of all of us. I think that in five years, ten years, and decades, when the children we helped grow up and start a family, they will never forget what we are doing now, and we will definitely spread this love to generations of dragon descendants on the land of China forever!"
Bang Bang Bang ......
There was another burst of fierce applause, especially the applause from more than 500 media people, which lasted for a long time before finally falling.
"Do you know why I'm wearing white today?" Zhao Yongqi suddenly shook his suit and said with a smile: "Because I hope that our public welfare fund, whether it is in operation or when it is distributed, will be as pure white as this color." Don't consider any interests, don't mix any personal feelings, and let every penny be used on the blade that is really needed! This is why I have invited more than 200 large media across the country today, and I hope that in the future, you will always use the power of the media to supervise this pure love, so that she will always be pure and immaculate! Thank you. ”
In the long applause that rang out again, the person in charge of the custodian fund, as well as bigwigs like Xu Wenwei and Qian Qiming, connected the director of CCTV, Zhao Yongqi and several other big stars in the circle, and picked up the scissors and red ribbons brought by the staff.
In the applause of everyone, after cutting the ribbon at the same time, the gold-lettered signboard wrapped in red silk behind him also revealed its true face.
At this moment, Zhao Yongqi smiled happily and sincerely, this is another solid footprint for him to make his real help to the world!
