Chapter 467 Socializing
"Hey! It's three o'clock, it's tea time, friends." Luo Quan, who was live broadcasting in the hotel, suddenly shouted in Cantonese after seeing the hands in the clock.
This is a new meme on Bilibili. People like Luo Quan who brush Bilibili intensely must be quite familiar with it.
Fans who were watching the live broadcast were stunned for a moment and then laughed:
"Do you want to drink tea too?"
"Luo Quan can also speak Cantonese?"
"It tastes so good. When I closed my eyes, I thought I was meeting a fellow countryman."
"Luo Quan is very professional when it comes to languages."
………………
The barrage was chatting about Luo Quan's accent, and she took out a box from the suitcase with a string of English words on it. Fans couldn't understand most of the content, but when they saw a "tea" they probably knew it contained a Something.
This is the slimming scented tea that Luo Quan brought back from the UK. It is said that many upper class people in London drink this tea. Luo Quan tried to drink a bag after seeing several boxes of new ones in the room.
At first I was just curious and didn't expect any results.
After drinking it, she found that it tasted surprisingly good and could completely replace her usual thirst-quenching drinks.
Since this was a weight loss product without major side effects, she took it all and planned to drink it while exercising.
One bag a day. She has been drinking it for ten days. As for the effect, Luo Quan gets on the scale every time after taking a shower. It seems that he is a pound less than when he came to London, but she is not sure whether it is because of drinking this. reason.
Most teas that have a weight loss effect usually achieve significant weight loss by first easing the bowels and laxatives. However, she has not had diarrhea these days, which shows that the tea she drank this time did not follow the above route.
Of course, this does not prove that this tea is ineffective. After all, losing weight is not something that happens overnight. It will take a while to be reflected.
On the other hand, this tea tastes really good. Compared with those colored drinks, drinking this should be healthier.
After drinking a cup of hot tea, Luo Quan continued to read the questions in the barrage and answer them selectively.
After showing off two pieces of clothing on the catwalk yesterday, the audience stood up and cheered. These are all veterans who have been in the fashion industry for many years.
Even they find it amazing, let alone ordinary people. Luo Quan also deliberately selected design works that the public can appreciate this time, so there will be no aesthetic differences between the two groups.
After the clothing photos came out, passers-by were naturally surprised and sighed, and fans started to express their displeasure after being bored for so many days.
In the past few days, Luo Quan had been criticized a lot by people in the fashion circle. Now that the clothes have come out, many people have automatically deleted their posts and pretended to be dead. The name of "genius" has once again spread around the world.
However, Luo Quan already boasted about his awesomeness during the live broadcast last night, and enjoyed the praise and adulation from fans all night long.
And when the live broadcast starts again today, there will naturally be new topics to discuss.
Seeing the next question that was asked to her, Luo Quan put down his tea cup and said:
"I'm going to the Shangri-La Hotel tomorrow night to attend a charity reception. If you have the conditions, you can watch the live broadcast on YouTube."
This charity party was told to her by her grandfather a few days ago. Its full name is the Noble Charity Ball. It is said to be one of the top ten top parties in the world.
Luo Quan had heard of an equally famous event called the Paris Ladies' Ball. As the name suggests, ladies are invited to the ball to dance with princes and young jazzmen from other countries. The theme of the ball is to help poor girls in Asia through donations. .
This time it’s similar, but it’s just inviting young celebrities from around the world.
The invited subjects are first of all the nobles in Europe. After all, this is the place with the most feudal remnants in the world, followed by the second generation of wealthy Americans, and then the young but popular celebrities and Internet celebrities.
Because the scale is relatively large, the conditions for participation are not as demanding as the Paris Ladies Ball, but after all, there are so many big names participating, so the popularity is still quite high.
Although this is a charity ball in name, it is actually an aristocratic social salon, but because there is a donation component, the theme is sublimated.
However, this time the target of help is not Asia, but the rescue of children displaced by war in ZD.
When he heard this, Luo Quan almost laughed out loud.
Don’t these nobles and rich people have any idea who became what they are now?
Destroying other people's homes, and now holding a charity party to help them, is really just some cat-crying-mouse fake compassion.
Originally Luo Quan didn't want to go, but since it was his grandfather who called and his younger brother was also going this time, he didn't refuse.
Of course, she would not give a live speech directly in front of reporters at the ball to denounce and expose the hypocrisy of these people.
It would definitely be fun, but for her father's family, it might break their hearts.
So this time she went, she probably just sat there for a while, drank some juice, then made a donation and left.
The barrage obviously didn't know much about this so-called aristocratic charity gala. In comparison, they would rather Luo Quan could live broadcast in the room, sing a few songs and dance a few dances for them.
In the past, I might have been a little excited when I heard about nobles, but now that I have watched Luo Quan's live broadcast for so long, I no longer have any special curiosity or admiration for nobles.
After all, most nobles in this world should be inferior to Luo Quan in terms of living conditions, family background, and reputation, not to mention their appearance and temperament. Luo Quan can kill them all instantly.
So when Luo Quan revealed this itinerary, fans seemed a little uninterested, and so was Luo Quan himself.
The next night, she randomly picked a dark-colored skirt, drove to the door of Shangri-La Hotel, and after waiting for Lyon, they walked in together.
Normally when attending a party, she would dress brightly in order to attract attention, but tonight the color of her clothes almost blended in with the night outside the hotel. If it weren't for her stunning appearance, she wouldn't have attracted much attention at all.
But obviously many of the boys who attended the dance today were here for her and didn't care what she was wearing. As long as they saw her face, they would come up to say hello.
Facing these polite and elegant princes and knights, Luo Quan uniformly responded with a professional fake smile, with the corners of his mouth raised at thirty degrees, and the arc was quite standard.
Fans who often watch Luo Quan's live broadcasts know that when Luo Quan really smiles happily, the apples of her cheeks will swell slightly. At this time, she is like a princess in a fairy tale, with a bright and beautiful smile.
But if she is in a normal mood and just wants to fake a smile, the only part of her face that moves is her lips.
On the one hand, this is her personal habit, and on the other hand, it also shows that her control of facial muscles is really good. No wonder her acting skills are so good at such a young age.
Leon was naturally familiar with his sister's habits. Seeing her smiling so fakely, he asked quietly after entering the hall and sitting down, "Why are you unhappy today?"
Luo Quan smiled and took a glass of juice from the passing waiter and said, "Are you happy to attend this dance with a bunch of people you don't know at all?"
"Then our moods are really different. I finally took a leave from my busy schedule. Now I don't have to think about any work, and my body and mind are quite relaxed." Leon said while glancing at a figure with a pretty good figure in the distance. female internet celebrity.
Like his sister, Leon has long lost interest in the so-called beauty. In his eyes, no matter how beautiful a girl is, she is just mediocre.
But the figure is different. After all, everyone has his or her own merits in terms of fatness and weight. After working with Carillian Manxu on Titanic, he became more interested in girls with plump figures.
Of course, it currently only exists to the extent that it is eye-catching.
Luo Quan knew that his younger brother worked a lot, so coming to Paris this time was like taking a vacation. After all, not everyone was as free as she was.
After sitting in the hall for a while, the dance began.
Although it was a dance, the theme was still more focused on charity and social interaction, so there was only waltz music playing in front, but the organizers did not call for everyone to come to the dance floor to dance together.
After all, not all the people who came this time were nobles, so Bu Changtiao was still sitting in his seat drinking wine, or he walked over to other people and started talking and building relationships.
After playing a few classic dance songs, the music cut to Luo Quan's "Second Waltz". Even if it was placed next to the previous classic waltzes, her song did not seem to be inconsistent in any way.
At this time, a gentleman in a tuxedo came over. He looked to be in his early twenties, tall and handsome, and his voice was extremely gentle:
"Beautiful lady, may I have the honor to invite you to dance with me?"
Luo Quan smiled and shook his head: "Sorry, I can't dance."
She really didn't know how to waltz, but if she wanted to know how to do it, it was just a thought.
In fact, let alone the waltz, if necessary, she can perform the authentic Maori war dance.
But dancing, especially a duet, is not something that can be done by one person. You have to choose a partner. Luo Quan doesn't want to go to the dance floor with a stranger anyway.
"That's such a pity." The gentleman showed a regretful expression. A smart person would have guessed that Luo Quan's no-no was just an excuse. In this situation, there is no question of whether or not, only whether or not.
Obviously, he was not the dance partner Luo Quan expected.
In fact, none of the people present had the dance partner she was looking forward to, or she was not looking forward to it at all.
At a dance, twelve boys came to her and invited her to dance with her, but without exception, they were all rejected.
Leon couldn't bear it anymore, he shook his head and sighed.
Luo Quan also wanted to sigh, and there was even a sentence that he didn't know whether to say or not.
The invitation-rejection drama continued until the end of the dance, and when Luo Quan's professional fake smile was almost unbearable, the torture finally stopped.
If she continues, she will probably just find a sign with the words: "I can't dance, please find another girl to dance" on it, and then stand it next to her.
After the dance, it’s time for tonight’s charity stage.
Charity is divided into two parts. The first half is a charity auction. The organizer of the ball will bring out some arts and crafts for the nobles and celebrities attending the party to auction, and all the proceeds from the auction will be donated to a certain charity organization.
The second part is the donation session. There will be a big box on the stage. If you want to donate, you can go up and put your check in the box.
After donating, you can also make a speech. This moment is a personal appearance, and it is also the purpose of most Internet celebrities and celebrities coming here, and part of these donations is also the admission fee for these people.
As a ball held for aristocrats and the second generation of rich people, Internet celebrities will naturally have to pay more money to enter. This is very realistic, but also very reasonable.
The charity auction began soon, and the items for sale were all paintings, handicrafts, sculptures, etc., and most of them were works by modern people.
She didn't know how high the artistic level of these gadgets was, but none of them could be noticed by the system, which meant they were not of particularly high value.
But after the auction, the price often goes up to five million US dollars, and many of them go up to tens of millions of US dollars!
What the hell is this if it's not Q-washing? Luo Quan glanced at his younger brother. Although the latter held a bid number plate in his hand, he never passed the price.
"Brother, is this auction a formal one? Why does the price seem a bit high?" Luo Quan asked worriedly.
If the later auction is revealed to have participated in Q-laundering, it will be a bit troublesome.
"It's okay. I didn't see that the bidders were all the rich second generation and Internet celebrities. None of the noble children moved." Leon himself is also a celebrity. If there were any problems with the auction, he would have left long ago.
"Actually, it's just a big deal. These works of art are not treasures at all for a family with a long history. Who doesn't have a few pieces at home? People who know the goods will not auction these things here."
Leon's explanation reassured Luo Quan: "Then kill him, kill him hard!"
After the misunderstanding was resolved, Luo Quan began to prepare for the next donation.
She asked the waiter for a pen and paper and started writing on it.
Leon thought his sister was preparing to write a speech so that she could give a touching speech later, but after taking a closer look, he realized that it was the lyrics of a song.
"Are you going to donate this later?" Leon laughed, "It's quite unique. People are donating money, and you write the lyrics lightly."
"What does it mean to be light and fluttery!" Of course Luo Quan would not admit that he was a hard-core loser. "Don't you know how valuable my songs are? Donating this song would cost tens of millions of dollars at least!
And don’t you think it’s a bit vulgar to follow the crowd and donate money? "
"That's true." Leon laughed, wondering if he should imitate it.
However, I thought that the content of his rap lyrics was not very good and might not have the same effect as my sister, so I gave up.
Soon, all the charity auction items were sold out, and there was no first-rate auction. Then came the time for people to donate.
ps. Thanks to book friend Zi Ming for the book coins, thank you very much!
