Chapter 366: The True Meaning of Charity

When Su Xinyuan's figure appeared at the dinner, it was already fifteen minutes later.

He doesn't regret that he missed the chattering opening speech, which was full of rhetoric and rhetoric, with only the word "boring" from beginning to end. Not only for the audience, but also for the reader.

This charity dinner brought together celebrities from the East Coast region of the United States and the most popular actresses of the moment, and although it is called charity, the power of money and power is evident in the exchange of cups and shadows.

Su Xinyuan deliberately chose a quiet corner, away from the crowd. While casually sipping the red wine in his hand, he stared at the stage in the middle of the venue.

On the stage, decorated with a large number of flowers, the most important ceremony of the dinner will take place.

The three actresses will take to the stage in front of the audience and pledge to be WWCF Charity Ambassadors of the year.

Christina is the most eye-catching woman in the audience, she is familiar with this vanity fair, enjoying the pursuit of celebrities, talking and laughing like a fish in water.

It wasn't until she saw Su Xinyuan in the corner that the smile on her face finally settled.

But Christina didn't take the initiative to provoke this time, and she needed to maintain her good image in front of the full circle of celebrities.

The free-spirited reception lasted for about an hour, and President Brando stepped onto the stage and the guests were seated.

Sitting in the first row of the audience were the guests of honor at the dinner, including President Anzai of WWCF, as well as various directors, all of whom were well-known capitalists on the east coast of the United States.

Christina and Seve were also seated in the first row, with an empty chair between them.

President Brando glanced apprehensively at the vacant seat before he began to read the manuscript in his hand. Not long ago, the staff around him told him that there was a situation backstage, and Qin Luolin was likely to be absent. This is not what he would like to see.

"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to this year's Charity Dinner, and it is a pleasure to be with you again in New York, which promises to be a wonderful evening. First of all, let us thank Mr. Anthy of the World Charity Foundation for Women and Children. President Brando said.

Chairman Anzai stood up and waved to the crowd, which was met with applause.

"We at the World Film Association are honored to be able to work with WWFC again to select their ambassadors for this year, and let us welcome these outstanding young actresses with the warmest applause!" President Brando was the first to applaud.

Christina slowly got up amid the applause and attention of the audience and walked onto the stage with graceful steps.

Seve followed her uneasily, looking around the venue with blank eyes, obviously looking for Qin Luolin's figure.

Christina took the microphone from the master of ceremonies, took a step forward, and distanced herself from Seve standing beside her, as if she were the real protagonist on the stage.

"I am honored to be re-elected as a WWCF Charity Ambassador, and I hope to use my convening power to influence more people to pay attention to the women and children in need around the world, which is also my long-standing wish. Although I am a film actor, charity will be my life's work! ”

Christina deserves to have outstanding acting skills, and she said it touchingly and heartfelt, and immediately won the warmest applause from the audience.

The eighteen-year-old Seve was much more stiff, and after taking the microphone, perhaps too nervous to forget the words, she was silent for a while, and finally hurriedly said a few clichés, but fortunately, no one in the audience would bother with a girl, and she also gave her a lot of applause.

"Miss Christina and Miss Seve are both outstanding young actresses in the film industry, and this is a well-deserved appointment to WWCF Charity Ambassador of the Year." President Brando said as he concluded his closing remarks.

As soon as the words fell, the guests in the audience suddenly began to whisper. Traditionally, there should be three charity ambassadors who speak for WWCF each year, but why only two this year?

Even President Anzai of WWCF frowned slightly, as if he was quite dissatisfied with the arrangement of the World Film Association.

At this time, Qin Luolin suddenly walked slowly from the entrance.

Her appearance immediately attracted the attention of the audience.

Christina on the stage also looked at Qin Luolin in surprise, but soon the surprise on her face turned into disdain, and she sneered, "Is this woman crazy?" Dressed up like this for this important dinner? ”

Sifu was also worried, looking at Qin Luolin with both puzzlement and worry.

Qin Luolin wore long and silky hair, no fat powder on her face, and was wearing a simple one-piece coat of tea gray homespun cloth, like an African tribal style costume.

She walked barefoot, on the red carpet, step by step towards the stage.

Her outfit was incompatible with this high-profile dinner, as if she was a beggar living on the street, and it was no wonder that the guests in the audience stared at her with such disgust, even President Brando, who was good friends with her, did not look good on his face at this moment.

Qin Luolin didn't care about these gazes, she walked straight to the stage.

Standing with Christina, who was wearing heavy makeup and a gorgeous evening dress, her outfit looked even more embarrassed.

"Did your genius-like assistant end up making you such a suit? Why is this fabric so familiar? It can't be a powder room curtain, right? Christina whispered smugly.

Qin Luolin didn't pay attention to her provocation, she directly took the microphone, walked to the side of the stage, and slowly spoke to the puzzled guests:

"I'm Qin Luolin, an actress from the East, and I'm honored to be one of WWCF's Charity Ambassadors."

"I'm sure you'll be wondering, why am I dressed like this today?"

"That's because a man once told me that he had been to Dankin, a war-torn country in Africa, and that this simple dress was their traditional dress."

"There are countless women and children out there who, like us, are human beings, but who do not have even the most basic dignity ...... life"

"Maybe we are now sipping the 1842 Lafite wine, listening to the piano made of 100-year-old European nanmu playing Chopin's music, and holding such a charity dinner in great luxury...... Our protagonists, these women and children, whose lives and dignity are being ruthlessly trampled on! ”

"But did anyone really care about them?"

The audience fell silent, and they all bowed their heads, as if thoughtful.

Christina's face once again showed a fierce expression, she stared at Qin Luolin's back, one hand clenched into a fist.

She must not have thought that she would be self-defeating, but instead helped Qin Luolin to be in the limelight at this dinner party.

"Good! Miss Qin said it well! President Anzai said as he stood up with his hands clapping.

Then the applause on the field came and went, and almost everyone looked at Qin Luolin with a look of admiration.

"I've worked with a lot of celebrities, most of them are for fame and profit, and no one is really for charity, it's just that everyone knows it by heart, until I met you today!" President Anxi took the initiative to walk to the stage and said excitedly to Qin Luolin.

"Thank you, President, in fact, I didn't understand the true meaning of charity at first, and it was that man who made me wake up...... May I ask Mr. President, may I invite him to the stage? Qin Luolin asked.

"Absolutely! I want to meet that friend you say you call too! President Anzai said.

Qin Luolin walked onto the stage, and under the attention of the audience, she came to Su Xinyuan, who was standing in the corner, and took the initiative to stretch out her hand and pull him to the stage.

For a while, the guests on the field all speculated about Su Xinyuan's identity, and these celebrities on the east coast of the United States showed envy when they looked at Qin Luolin's intimate behavior.

"It's you! Mr. Sue! President Anzai was amazed.

"Hello...... Mr. President, do you know me? Su Xinyuan asked suspiciously, did he remember that he had dealt with WWCF before.

"I once met Mr. Su at the Fuso Flower Banquet in Hawaii before, but Mr. Su, you are an important guest of the organizer, and even Miss Gong personally accompanies you. As for me, I'm just an ordinary guest......" said President Anzai.

"Mr. Anthy is serious." Su Xinyuan said politely.

Although Su Xinyuan's identity is not yet known, after hearing that he was the guest of honor at the Fusang Flower Feast, and even Gong Xinyue, one of the organizers, personally accompanied him, the celebrities on the field looked at him with even more surprised eyes.

Everyone knew what it meant to be invited to the Fuso Flower Feast, and although all the celebrities present were celebrities from the east coast of the United States, only Chairman Anzai was invited to attend.

The expression on Christina's face at this time had already frozen, she obviously didn't expect that a little assistant beside Qin Luolin would be so profound!

"Miss Christina, do you remember what you once said? You said that after tonight's feast, you won't make it out of New York alive, right? Su Xinyuan turned around and came to Christina and asked coldly.

President Anzai was shocked and said, "This is ...... Mr. Su, could this be some misunderstanding? ”

"Su ...... Mr. Su, you are indeed mistaken...... Misunderstood, I was just playing a good-natured joke with you. Christina said in a somewhat trembling voice, and now she was already remorseful in her heart, and she realized that she had messed with someone she shouldn't have messed with, but it was too late.

"Jokes? All right! Let's take a look at another good-natured joke from Miss Christina! Su Xinyuan said coldly.

He walked to the giant LED screen on the stage where the poster was playing, and took out the walkie-talkie, which was only available to the staff at the venue, and then a surveillance video of the backstage wardrobe suddenly appeared on the LED screen.
