Chapter 1129 The So-Called Noble Spirit
"You don't go to the award ceremony, and you don't go to Africa. I said, shouldn't you pretend to be sick or something?"
"Why? If I still can't act recklessly today, wouldn't it be a bit of a failure!" William White looked at Natasha. This girl is getting more and more beautiful. From the looks of it, my brother's hard work was not in vain.
Titanic won a total of eleven awards. This result can already scream up to the sky. Fourteen nominations, eleven awards. Only Ben-Hur can be compared.
However, times have changed. The Oscars of the 1960s, that is, the US Emperor entertained himself. At that time, Europe didn't like Hollywood very much.
In fact, not much to see now. Take the Titanic as an example, there are actually quite a few slots. Those who like it like it very much, at most one, it seems that they have watched it dozens of times.
Of course, there are not a few people who don't like it. I came to see the spirit of a gentleman, but you forcefully poured chicken soup on me. Bastard, who would believe that in just a few days, you can create an unforgettable love.
However, that was a box office of two billion dollars. Gosh, it's crazy that it's been a year and it's still showing in IMAX theaters.
"Are you really going to auction off these antiques?"
"Yeah, what's wrong? Niggas don't have food right now, well, they often don't.
Who can say anything about saving hungry children. The movie is almost done, and the Oscars are over. Do some charity at this time, no one will say me. "
Natasha couldn't help laughing, this bastard is starting to be hypocritical again. Is this, shutting up the stinking mouths of those guys?
"You know, Natasha, a lot of people say I'm a bumpkin.
As for the reason, I just said that abstract paintings are so amazing that I really can't understand them.
Then, there was a group of idiots pointing at me. I don't care about my appearance, I don't care about etiquette, and the most hateful thing is that some people say that I have no artistic accomplishment. "
"Giggle, giggle, you really can't. If it were me, I would pretend to appreciate it.
Don't, don't move around, my dress is not easy to wear. "
"It's okay, don't you still have it?"
"Go, one of them was ruined just now, so hurry up and change your clothes, it's time soon."
William White hated to wear the most serious, especially the kind of tuxedo with two tails, he would not wear it if he was killed.
A group of idiots, they know an eggplant, and they really regard themselves as nobles.
The so-called nobility, what is the most important point?
Just social responsibility.
The original so-called nobles, their source is knights. The knight can not give birth, and can enjoy the support of others calmly.
However, when wars and disasters come, you cannot back down. Essentially, it's an exchange. Knights provide protection, and farmers pay taxes. There is no distinction between high and low, and the division of labor is different.
Nowadays, drinking the best wine, wearing the most expensive clothes, and living in the most luxurious house have become the labels of nobility.
Hehe, if they don't make any contribution to this society, I think these drunken and dreamy guys will never be aristocrats.
"Leonardo, don't be discouraged. At your age, they won't give you the statuette. Do you know that when the academy bullied me, it was much more than it is now."
"Boss." When Xiao Lizi said this, he was on the verge of crying. If this guy knows, this is just the beginning, and he doesn't know if he will jump into the sea directly.
"Don't call me the boss, call me William, it's not a meeting now."
"Well, William, I'm really greedy. If I can't win this time, it will be difficult in the future."
It is said to be a charity dinner, but it is actually more like a celebration party for White Pictures. Of course, there were a little more guests.
"William, you are here, so I can find you easily." Christopher Galvin swung his wine glass lightly, inviting them to drink together.
"Cheers, for your health."
"Tsk, William, you are too stingy, two billion dollars, you should take out those Lafites."
"Hahaha, old man, I can't do it today. Charity dinner, I'm already extravagant, if I take expensive wine, someone will complain about it tomorrow.
However, if you like it, I'll send you some. "
"Those paparazzi are really annoying." Galvin's young master, of course he also knows this truth, it's just looking for something to say.
White Winery, which costs thirty to fifty dollars, is already very good. Ordinary people drink more than ten knives. In the United States, except during the period of Prohibition, alcohol is not expensive.
The real so-called nobles mostly drink fruit wine brewed by themselves. If it comes to value, it might only be a few knives.
How to pay attention to the disadvantaged groups and how to take on social responsibilities is what nobles should care about. The extravagance of life cannot save your dirty soul.
"James, are you sure you want to go to Calcutta?"
"More than that, in fact, I plan to stay in India for a while."
"Okay, I'll give you a piece of advice. Always carry clean drinking water with you."
"It's not so bad, I suppose, my stomach isn't.
"
"Hey, you know, you can ask Harrison Ford. If you plan to ask him to make a movie, you must not go to India."
"Well, I'll pay attention. In fact, it's their culture that attracts me."
"I hope you can get something, I'm looking forward to it." Upon hearing this, William White thought of it. Maybe, the outline of Avatar already has some eyebrows. Forget it, there are some things that really cannot be copied, it's better to let nature take its course.
A group of bigwigs gathered together to brag, no one cared how much money they could make at the auction today. As long as William White is here, the scene will not be too ugly.
"This is, is he busy with these recently?"
"Yes, Boss, I don't seem to care about the affairs here in Xiangjiang. This guy doesn't have any conspiracy, does he?"
"Hmph, it's like this every time, playing tricks. By the way, what about his account? Is there any unusual behavior?" Soros gritted his teeth a little bit, William White actually acted like nothing happened, patted his butt and ignored it.
"We are still buying constituent stocks, but there are not many chips to enter the market.
The bullish HSI futures contracts have also been closed, and the bullish Hong Kong paper futures contracts have also been closed. "
Soros was a little dizzy. Could it be that this guy was just trying to embarrass himself. Bastard, can you buy Amoco, do I have a dime relationship?
Nima, what is it now, I am a heinous bastard, and you are a good person.
It would be bullshit to say Soros wasn't worried at all. To put it simply, when this guy was attacked, the public's reaction was to gloat.
This is not talking about Asia, even in the United States, this guy's reputation is not very good. If the same thing happened to William White, he dared to say that it would definitely be a different scene.
Soros is thinking, otherwise, buddies should also engage in some charity. There are actually so many routines of William White.
If William White knew his thoughts, he would definitely laugh out loud. It would be nice if it were that simple. Only by engaging in charity at the right time can the interests be maximized.
For example, this time, what is the purpose of Lao Ke going to Africa?
Propaganda is the next thing to do. It is the purpose to fool more black buddies into supporting it. Well, at this time, you should always take some advantage, you empty mouth, who knows what you want to do?
