In capitalist society, everything else is nothing, only the green Franklin is everything, the more wealth you have, the greater your right to speak, and the more others will respect and fear you.

As for Mr. Smith lying on the sofa, Jin Yang won't care if he lives or dies.

However, it seems that he should be sent to the hospital by Robert's people, after all, this is a charity dinner, Robert's territory, and if something happens here, he will not be able to escape it.

……

The small turmoil subsided, and with the mayor's announcement, tonight's charity auction officially began.

Led by the waiters, the crowd entered an auction hall that looked a bit like a movie theater, with rows of seats, and a small table in front of each seat where some belongings could be placed.

There are a lot of seats here, but there are also some ways to say that the seats are the host's seats in the middle of the first row, and the other seats in the first row are the seats of important guests, and then they are arranged in the back.

Originally, Jinyang didn't know that there was such a rule, and when he entered the hall, he was going to find a random seat to sit down and say, anyway, it was a charity auction, and it was not a treasure robbery conference.

But he was now an important figure in Robert's eyes, and when he saw him come in, he smiled and pulled him over, and sat in the first row with Yan'er.

There is nothing peculiar about the auction, it is completely different from what Jinyang thought, there are no star charity performances, and there are no passionate speeches.

After everyone was seated, a promotional video was played on the big screen.

The main broadcast is the tragic picture of children who are suffering from hunger, war, disease, etc. in Africa and war-torn places, lonely, helpless, painful, and desperate, and the tragic scenes make the crowd who was still a little riot instantly quiet.

One comes from the heart, as if coming from another dimension, and the pure and innocent sound flows with the music.

“Think about um... the generations and say e anna make it a better place for our children and our children's children，so that they ，they，they，they kno it's a better orld for d think they can make it a better place.

There’s a place in your heart

And I kno that it is love

And this place it as brighter than tomorro

And if you really try

……”

Charity auction opens with a song by Michael Jackson "Heal the Orld"!

Just like the artistic conception expressed in this song, about children, the earth, and love, with the tragic scenes, almost everyone at the scene had tears in their eyes.

Sing a song.

Yan'er cried even more: "Jinyang, these children are so pitiful, they have nothing to eat, nothing to drink, no medicine to cure when they are sick, no clothes to wear when they are cold, no one hurts, no one loves."

I wanted to do something for them. ”

Jin Yang nodded and said: "Of course, I also want to do something for them, not only them, but when I return to China for the New Year, I want to do something for my motherland."

Although my current nationality is American, my heart is in China. There are also such children in our country, who are not well fed, clothed, and tortured.

They deserve our help even more. ”

Charity knows no borders, but everyone has his homeland.

There are many charity auctions like this in the United States, some are held by businessmen, some are held by politicians, and some are held by various charitable organizations.

Some are really just for charity, but more for profit.

Just like tonight's charity auction, on the one hand, it raised funds to help those in need, and on the other hand, it also made it easier for some people to get to know each other, communicate and promote their relationship with each other.

What's more, fame and tax exemptions.

America's wealthy are happy to do charity, because it can reduce taxes and gain a good reputation, and no one likes such things as fame and fortune.

Charity and interest are mutually reinforcing.

As he spoke, a white glove came up to the stage, he was the host and auctioneer for the night.

After signaling everyone to be quiet, he picked up the microphone and said loudly: "Good evening, distinguished ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the charity auction hosted by Mayor Robert!"

Tonight, it's home to almost all of Montana's stars.

Tonight, more than 300 business elites and celebrities were welcomed here.

We are here for one reason only, because of love ......."

The auctioneer seems to be able to say that a video and a song just now have aroused everyone's sympathy, and this will be another compliment, and it seems that the money raised tonight will not be less.

After talking for a while, the auctioneer gave a detailed introduction to the various lots tonight.

The lots are all donated by celebrities and celebrities for free, and not everything is very valuable, and some are even just the belongings of some celebrities, with a value of no more than $100.

Each lot comes with a small item with the emblem of the Democratic Party, which is estimated to be worth a few yuan, and the unit is RMB.

These are not the point, do charity, everyone's purpose is to donate money, no one cares what the lot is.

And under normal circumstances, people don't donate too much money at this kind of charity dinner, most of them are tens of thousands, and hundreds of thousands are considered relatively much.

Americans, especially the wealthy, generally like to donate money to their own charitable funds, so that they can better avoid taxes and monitor the use of the donations.

Of course, some large charitable organizations are also the object of large donations.

However, there will also be some hidden benefits for tonight's bidders and the people who donate the most, one is to have a good relationship with the Democratic Party, and the other is to get a good reputation for being willing to do charity, and a good reputation is still quite important for a rich man.

The first lot is a crystal earring donated by a popular star, shining charmingly in the light, it seems to be estimated to be worth a few thousand dollars, it is estimated that it is the best among all the lots, after all, it is a good start.

The reserve price of this lot is $1,000, and the price increase is not less than $100 each time.

Beautiful things are always a woman's favorite, and these crystal drop earrings are not only beautiful, but also a collection of famous stars, and one woman exclaimed, "$1,500." ”

Hearing this, the auctioneer shouted, "$1,500, this beautiful lady is bidding $1,500 to thank you for your support of charity."

This lot was donated by the popular star Miss Aveline, it is her former personal jewelry, according to her she loves this earring very much, this time because of love to donate it to help those poor children!

And this is a Tiffany item, beautiful and luxurious, and it is worth a lot of money, is there a higher bid than $1,500?"

"$2,000. A fat, somewhat distorted woman held up a sign.

I really don't understand, I'm fat like this, is it useful to bring diamonds?
