"I reiterate my appeal to ......"

Standing on the podium in the central conference hall of the Palais des Nations, Matthew's speech was already at the end, just like in South Africa, he was full of emotion, his acting skills were bursting, and he shouted, "Please pay attention to the refugee problem in Africa! Please pay attention to the women's rights problem in Africa! Please pay attention to the children's problem in Africa!"

"Thank you. ”

Matthew nodded slightly and ended his speech.

The applause erupted in the central conference hall, which was significantly warmer than Emma Watson's speech just now.

Unlike Emma Watson, who just came into the circle, he's been in for a long time, and he's actually done a lot of things, no matter what the end goal is.

The supplies sent to Africa are well documented at the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR).

"Thank you. ”

After saying this, Matthew got off the podium and walked towards his seat, and met Natalie Portman who was about to give a speech on the stage, and the two looked at each other and smiled as if they were old friends.

There are only three Hollywood stars present today, and compared to the 10-minute speeches of the Secretary-General, the head of UNICEF and the High Commissioner of UNHCR, they are given very little time, and each of them is limited to five minutes.

In fact, Matthew understands that this is also a high-level mutually beneficial relationship, and those people who engage in politics in the United Nations, who are not human beings, how can they not know the real purpose of the celebrities who have joined the United Nations? But the United Nations also needs the influence of these people to call on and bring more people.

Returning to her seat and sitting down next to Emma Watson, taking advantage of the short break in the room, Emma Watson asked, "Did you see a bunch of Muggles too?"

Matthew shrugged, "Ten times more people I won't be nervous." ”

His cheek has long been honed in various public appearances again and again.

Emma Watson nodded lightly and said, "Great speech." ”

"The agent helped write it. Matthew doesn't shy away from this, "I didn't even graduate from high school, my writing level is terrible, and I'm not a top student like you." ”

"Scholar?" Emma Watson curious.

Matthew pointed at her, "You're a top student." Then he pointed to himself, "I'm a scumbag." ”

Emma Watson curled the corners of her mouth and laughed again, saying, "You're so much funnier than Tom Felton." ”

"Who is Tom Felton?" Matthew had never heard of the name.

"It's Malfoy. Emma Watson said generously, "I had a crush on him...... It's not a crush, it's me who chased him, I confessed to him, but I was rejected. ”

Matthew's eyes widened, "He rejected you? Someone turned down Emma Watson's courtship?"

Emma Watson tilted her head to look at Matthew, "What's so strange about rejecting me?"

"yes. Matthew casually said, "Hermione should live happily with Harry Potter, and Malfoy is Harry Potter's nemesis." ”

Emma Watson laughed again, "Unfortunately, Hermione won't be with Harry. She changed the subject, "My agent suggested that I go to college in the United States, do you have any recommendations?"

"Come to Los Angeles, the USC Film School is in Los Angeles. Matthew said seriously, "This will also benefit your career as an actor." ”

He deliberately changed his mysterious tone, "Didn't you say that last night? You're in Los Angeles, I'm convenient for you, you have something to call and I'll be there soon." ”

Emma Watson nodded, "Hmm...... Let me think about it. ”

On the other side of the podium, Natalie Portman had already walked up, and Matthew reminded Emma Watson, "It's going to start again, there's cameras everywhere, and we're serious about attending." ”

"It's going to be boring. Emma Watson grumbled, then shut her mouth and pretended to be very serious.

Matthew stopped talking and looked over to Natalie Portman, and the venue quickly fell silent.

The central assembly hall of the Palais des Nations where they are located is majestic and dignified, the floor and walls are all paved with granite and marble, and the circular hall has a total of 6 floors and more than 1,800 seats.

On the walls and ceilings of the General Assembly Hall are paintings by European masters on the themes of justice, strength, peace, law and wisdom.

There is also a relief mural stretching across the ceiling, depicting five giant hands of five giants in the universe clasped together, which is said to symbolize the unity and friendship of the peoples of the five continents of the world.

Natalie Portman's presentation soon began on environmental protection and human rights.

He, Emma Watson and Natalie Portman are ambassadors to different UN organizations, and their respective speeches certainly have their own focus, but the ultimate goal is the same, nothing more than to use the United Nations to brush up on style and make a good name.

Emma Watson's finished speech, the theme of children and women's rights, is in line with her ambassador for the Women's Children's Fund, in fact, it is not difficult to see that Emma Watson's agency team is very optimistic about her future, and seems to realize that once the "Harry Potter" series ends, Emma Watson's acting career will be in crisis, and began to prepare in advance.

For example, this kind of superstar who is limited to a series of movies, the transformation is too difficult, the transformation process will be very painful, and there are very few people who can succeed in the end.

Matthew still remembers that after "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone", Helen Herman was very optimistic about Emma Watson and flew to the UK several times to poach Emma Watson to an angel agency, but the agency behind Emma Watson is very strong and also attaches great importance to Emma Watson, and Helen Herman did not succeed in the end.

An actor of the type of Emma Watson has a strong agency behind him to have the possibility of successful transformation.

When Matthew saw Natalie Portman, he suddenly thought of one thing, Emma Watson can actually learn from Natalie Portman, go to a top university to gild, precipitate in college for a few years, and wait for the public to forget about Hermione Granger a little, and then come out to shoot other roles that suit him.

He couldn't help but turn his head to look at Emma Watson, who had just said that she would consider American universities.

Of course, high education is not uncommon in Hollywood, and Natalie Portman, who is giving a speech, is typical of them.

Thinking of this, Matthew couldn't help but shake his head, there are many actors with Ivy League degrees in Hollywood, and there are even more Cambridge and Oxford backgrounds among British actors, why are those people not always mentioned as academic qualifications like Natalie Portman, a Harvard graduate?

Sure enough, it's all a publicity and marketing routine.

Just like there was a stage, the angel brokerage company took the initiative to break the news about the mess before he became famous, these things reporters can dig up sooner or later, rather than waiting for others to dig out and break the news, it is better to plan to take the initiative to break the news to the outside world, look at the whole United States, not to mention people from slums, even if they are from elite families, who hasn't done some bastard things when they were young?

And at that stage of just becoming famous, selling miserably is also conducive to winning the sympathy of the public and the media, like this kind of ordinary people who have achieved success through hard work, and it is also the most popular event of the mainstream media and the public.

In fact, the techniques used by everyone are not much different, but the characters are different.

The applause suddenly erupted, interrupting Matthew's ramblings, and Natalie Portman's speech was over, and he also applauded along with the crowd.

This was followed by speeches by representatives of various rights organizations, and the biggest function of such meetings is to appeal, and the biggest feature is that it is lengthy and full of United Nations characteristics - the voice of speech is always more eye-catching than the actual action.

After the morning, the meeting ended for the time being, and the afternoon will continue.

The participants did not return to the hotel, but dined in the restaurant of the Palais des Nations.

Emma Watson was called by her agent to ask about the situation, and Matthew and Natalie Portman took their respective food, found a quiet place, and sat together.

"I heard you've been to war-torn areas in Africa?" asked Natalie Portman, eating a vegetable salad.

Matthew nodded slightly, "I have been to the Somali border, I dare not go deeper, and there are peacekeepers to protect me." ”

Natalie Portman ate only a little, put down her knife and fork, picked up a napkin, wiped her mouth, and said, "I'm going to visit some countries in Central Africa with a UN team next month." Like a good friend, she asked politely, "Do you have any suggestions?"

"Hmm...... Mosquitoes and other flying insects are particularly powerful over there, so you need to prepare in advance. Matthew thought about it for a moment and offered the ultimate magic weapon, "Before you go, go to the daily necessities store in Chinatown and look for it, there is a kind of ......"

He didn't know how to translate, so he could only slow down his speech and prolong his pronunciation, "Wind ...... Oil...... Essence...... insect repellent oil, very effective. ”

"Wind ...... Oil...... Essence...... Is it?"

"Yes, that's the name. Matthew specially reminded, "This is rubbed on the body bitten by mosquitoes and sprinkled on clothes to repel insects, don't use it indiscriminately." ”

Natalie Portman replied, "I made a note of it. ”

Her attitude of asking Matthew for advice can give people a psychological hint of trust and good friends, and it is very easy to get closer to each other invisibly.

Then she asked curiously, "When are you going to Africa again?

"There are no plans for this for the time being. Matthew said casually, "Disney has a budget of $250 million, and I plan to invest and finance it." ”

He spread his hands, "I may account for about 100 million dollars of investment, I have to keep an eye on it, and I won't go to Africa for the time being." ”

Natalie Portman chimed in, "It really should be staring. ”

After lunch, the two returned to the conference hall together, the meeting ended in the middle of the afternoon, Matthew invited Natalie Portman and Emma Watson to dinner together in the evening, and rushed back to Los Angeles the next day, where the crew was still waiting for him.
