The banquet has not yet officially begun, and all kinds of characters shuttle back and forth in the hall, exchanging and passing at a glance, the gentlemen are courteous and gentlemanly, and the ladies and ladies are dressed in jewels and flowers...... Show this celebrity event to the fullest.

Scold.

"Charity Gala...... Kate, do you think the money raised tonight will exceed the cost of hosting this charity gala? Tang Bao casually found a seat to sit down, looking at all kinds of characters talking and laughing in this extremely luxurious banquet hall, and couldn't help but ask with a smile.

"Hmmm......"

Kate couldn't help but be stunned, she didn't expect Tang Bao to ask such a question at all, but looking at the luxurious banquet hall, she suddenly understood Tang Bao's feelings. She also knows that holding such a charity gala is not just about dedicating love to charity.

"Boss, the Coca-Cola Foundation holds a similar charity gala every year, and all walks of life are very keen to participate in such galas, and many people are proud to get the invitation to the charity gala, which they regard as a recognition from the upper class. No one cares about the outcome of the fundraiser, everyone enjoys the process. Kate whispered.

Tang Bao deeply believes this, and in the eyes of some people, participating in this grand charity gala is a sign of stepping into the upper class of American society.

"Boss, there must be reporters in the banquet hall, if your words are heard by reporters, then add fuel and vinegar to the report......"

"Hmm."

Tang Bao smiled and nodded, although Kate was a little too cautious, but it was undeniable that his emotion revealed doubts about the charity gala, which was indeed not suitable for such a public occasion. Once his questioning is stabbed into the media, it will inevitably cause a storm, and it is even more likely to offend a large number of celebrities.

Therefore.

It would be very unwise to talk about this kind of topic, and Kate wittily shifted the subject: "Dustin, Goldie." I didn't expect them to show up at the charity dinner as well! ”

"Oh, who are they, famous?" Tang Bao asked along the way, he knew that Kate intended to change the topic, but he didn't break it.

Meantime.

Kate's excited expression also seemed to be fake, and she was really excited. He was also curious about what kind of character could lead to Kate's mood swings so much.

Looking at it, the man is not tall, his appearance is not good, and there is nothing special. On the contrary, the woman was tall, with flying blond hair and an elegant temperament.

"Uh, boss, you don't even know them?" Kate was surprised.

Well.

Tang Bao nodded very calmly, there really wasn't any impression in his head.

Goldie, Hollywood's most popular comedy actress, likes her most in the Little Confused series of movies. Dustin only won the Academy Award for Best Actor for "Rain Man" last year, and is currently one of Hollywood's hottest movie stars. Kate explained excitedly.

Forehead.

Tang Bao was stunned. I immediately understood why Kate was so excited, it seems that Goldie and Dustin are both idols in Kate's heart.

Regardless of age or status, when you see your idol, your emotions fluctuate violently. It's also a very normal thing.

"Wait, I'll have to take a picture with them!" Kate whispered.

Hey.

Tang Bao shook his head speechlessly, in his previous life and this life, the combined age of his two lives was fifty or sixty years old. But I have never had the experience of chasing stars, and I can't understand that kind of madness, and subconsciously feel that it is a very naïve thing. No way. The trajectory of his life in his previous life has long been detached from the life of ordinary people, and he can't experience the joy of ordinary people at all.

And now.

Tang Bao also focused on how to build his own business empire, rarely opened his heart to carnival and entertainment, except for accompanying Li Zhen to watch a few movies, he rarely set foot in the cinema, and he did not pay attention to the news in the entertainment industry. Therefore, Goldie and Dustin, who are becoming popular, have become strangers in Tang Bao's eyes.

Call.

Tang Bao couldn't help but take a deep breath, he suddenly felt that something was missing around him.

……

Just when Tang Bao felt something, a few acquaintances came over to greet him and chat casually, which also interrupted his cranky thoughts.

"Well, Don, looks like it's time for me to go." Andya, who was chatting energetically with Tang Bao, suddenly glanced behind Tang Bao with his eyes, picked up his wine glass, and got up to leave.

Well.

Tang Bao just smiled and nodded, he realized that there was an important person behind him, but he didn't rush to turn around.

"Boss, it's the vice president of Coca-Cola, Starr. It's the organizer of the charity gala! Kate leaned over to Tang Bao and reminded quietly.

Starr and Andya walked by, both smiling and nodding.

"Mr. Tang, welcome to the charity gala organized by Coca-Cola. Introduce yourself, I'm Starr! Starr sat down opposite Tang Bao and said politely.

"Hello, Mr. Starr!" Tang Bao immediately got up and shook hands with Starr, he had never met Starr, but he knew that this person was not simple, and he would take over the Coca-Cola Company in the future.

"If you're not mistaken, this should be Mr. Tang's assistant, Miss Kate, right?" Starr's gaze turned to Kate, who was beside Tang Bao.

"Hello, Mr. Starr." With a smile on her face, Kate shook her hand lightly with the other party very decently, and then retreated to Tang Bao's side.

See here.

Starr just smiled and didn't pay attention to Kate. He is the vice president of Coca-Cola, a high-ranking position, and the reason why he pays attention to Tang Bao's personal assistant is because of Nick, with the precedent of Nick, he doesn't dare to underestimate the infamous Kate, maybe one day he will be sent to the company to take up important positions like Nick.

"There are too many guests attending the dinner, please don't mind Mr. Tang if you are lazy." Starr said apologetically.

"Nothing, I'm satisfied!" Tang Bao said with a smile. He also knew that this kind of charity evening seemed simple and easy, but as an organizer, there were so many things to deal with and guests to entertain, and there were so many prominent people that he couldn't be dissatisfied because Starr didn't come to entertain him in time.

And.

Tang Bao didn't care about these red tapes, a few people came to disturb him, and he was happy to be at ease. It was right for him to talk to Starr about things, but he also knew the occasion, at least before the charity gala officially opened, it was not appropriate and there was no time to talk about it.

"Mr. Tang, the charity gala is about to officially start, and you are also one of the major shareholders of Coca-Cola, I would like to invite you to go up and give a speech." Starr explained what he meant.

Phoenix Investment Group holds about 6% of the shares and holds a seat on the board of Coca-Cola. Moreover, Tang Bao's prestige on Wall Street has gradually been established, and he stood up as a shareholder of Coca-Cola to give a speech, which is also a kind of support for Coca-Cola.

"That's it, I'll take a look at it below. Mr. Starr, you just follow your planned process. Tang Bao politely declined.

Meantime.

Tang Bao also secretly sighed in his heart, he was really guessed by Kate, Starr really invited him to speak at the charity gala......

"This ...... Mr. Tang, you are the majority shareholder of Coca-Cola, and it is only fitting that you will come forward to deliver a speech. Starr didn't stop Tang Bao's refusal.

Inviting Tang Baolai to give a speech was not a kind word from Starr, it was a sincere invitation, and they were very eager in their hearts.

"Warren Buffett didn't attend tonight's banquet?"

"No, he's here too." Starr replied.

"Hey, now that Warren Buffett is here, he seems to hold more Coca-Cola stock, according to you, it would be more appropriate to ask him to come forward and give a speech."

Tang Baoke knows that Buffett has bought a large number of Coca-Cola shares, and his shareholding ratio is much higher than that of Phoenix Investment Group.

"Uh."

Starr was stunned, he didn't expect Tang Bao to be so clear about Coca-Cola's shareholding structure, and in the news he received, Tang Bao seemed to rarely manage Phoenix Investment Group. "I'm not going to hide it, Mr. Tang, it's Mr. Buffett's proposal to invite you to give a speech, or Mr. Buffett's ......"

Unlike Tang Bao, Buffett holds shares of Coca-Cola, not only to participate in dividends, but also to make some suggestions to the company's management.

"Recently, I'm not in a position to be too high-profile." Tang Bao shook his head and said. He didn't go on to ask why he had to show up to give a speech.

"Hmm."

Starr snorted helplessly, a look of disappointment. As for what Tang Bao said is not suitable for being too high-profile, he also understands a little.

"Alas, Buffett guessed right, inviting Tang Bao to give a speech, it's really not that easy." Starr remembered Buffett's words before, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

Tang Bao was unwilling, he forced it, but it was useless, but he might offend Tang Bao because of it, so Starr didn't say anything more and got up to leave.

"Wait, Mr. Starr, I have something important to discuss with you, when do you think you can find time?" Tang Bao stopped Starr, who was getting up, and asked.

"Huh?"

Starr was startled and discussed things, could it be...... Thinking of the serious consequences, he didn't dare to think about it any further, and his face turned pale.

Starr's changes naturally did not escape Tang Bao's eyes, looking at Starr, who was uncertain, Tang Bao suddenly felt inexplicable, he was fine just now, how could he suddenly become like this.

"Mr. Starr?"

Tang Bao whispered to Starr, who was in a stupor.

Well.

Starr also came back to his senses and looked at Tang Bao suspiciously.

"I have something important to discuss, you can take some time, if you are not free today, I can visit Guo Sida another day." Tang Bao explained his intentions again.

Hear the words.

Starr's heart was even more shocked, even panicked...... He didn't have time, so he was going to find Coca-Cola's CEO Guo Sida, is it true?

"Yes, there's time! Mr. Tang, please wait a while, and after I finish my speech at the party, I will come to negotiate with you, please don't worry! ”

"Okay."

Tang Bao smiled and nodded. Starr's performance was a little weird, but now that the matter was done, Tang Bao didn't pay too much attention to it. (To be continued......)
