Chapter 2225 Is 30 Million Too Much?
"Really? Why not the White House? Isn't this a lie?" Liu Xiaoxiao didn't stop after getting in the car. This girl felt cheated. The White House Correspondents Association Dinner was not held in the White House. This disappointed Liu Xiaoxiao, who was looking forward to going to the White House.
"Let's go to the White House first. We'll go there tomorrow morning." Lingna said with a smile.
"Can I enter the White House at will?" Liu Xiaoxiao blinked.
"The time and place are fixed." Li Han said.
"Is that so." Liu Xiaoxiao nodded.
Arrived at the Washington Hilton Hotel, where the Correspondents Association Dinner was held. "Hello, ladies and gentlemen."
Li Han, Jennifer and others took out the invitation letter and handed it to the person in charge. "This way."
"It's so big." Liu Xiaoxiao muttered. "I thought it would only take a few people. There should be thousands of people in such a big place."
"Haha, more than that."
The White House Correspondents Association dinner invited not only reporters, but also celebrities and government officials. The whole venue had more than 2,000 people. It was a cocktail party held by the upper class. Of course, the organizer was changed to the Correspondents Association.
"Jennifer, you are so beautiful tonight."
As soon as Li Han and his group arrived at the hall, a young man jumped out and showed his courtesy to Jennifer.
"Ah."
Before Li Han could react, the young man jumped and shouted.
The little man Dudu laughed, and Li Han smiled and glared at the little man. "Don't make trouble."
"Hehe, Dudu knows."
The little man actually released a biting bee. This guy deserved bad luck. Jennifer and others looked at the jumping and screaming man with puzzled faces.
"Damn, how could there be such a thing here?"
The man shouted, and his whole face was swollen.
"Haha." Natalie couldn't help laughing.
Liu Xiaoxiao looked at the man with half a swollen face and said with a smile. "This guy is really unlucky, isn't he, Dudu?"
"Yeah." The little man nodded. "So pitiful."
"Really?" Liu Xiaoxiao suspected that this guy's swollen face was caused by Dudu.
"Yeah."
"Hehe, let's go."
"Hey, again?" Before taking a few steps, another guy jumped out.
"Natalie, this is not arranged by you, right?" Liu Xiaoxiao asked Natalie in a low voice.
"Do you think it's possible?" Natalie didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
"Is this really a dinner hosted by the White House Correspondents Association?" Liu Xiaoxiao looked at another jump and was completely stunned. "There are so many bugs here."
The service staff in the hotel banquet hall were also dumbfounded. What happened? Another guest had a swollen face.
"What happened?"
There is no surveillance here. Those who attend the banquet are not ordinary people. There is no way but to send someone to ask for a doctor.
Jennifer had seen another person jump out, her face was not good, but, seeing that in the blink of an eye, she became a swollen member again, the corner of her mouth slightly turned up, revealing a smile.
Li Han glared at the little man, this thing again and again, it will be troublesome, the little man laughed. "Don't do it again."
"Yeah."
"Little brat, if someone comes again, leave it to dad."
Li Han rubbed the little man.
"Yeah."
"Hey, it's that kid." Zhao Anji muttered softly.
Zhao Xiaomei saw her sister looking at the young man in the distance and asked softly. "Anji, what's wrong?"
"Sister, the young man I just told you about is here." Zhao Anji said.
"Really, I'll meet him if I have a chance." Zhao Xiaomei has seen all kinds of people. Although she was a little curious about the young man who could be praised by her father, she was not too anxious.
Zhao Anji nodded and planned to go over and chat a few words when she had time. At noon, Zhao Anji didn't know Li Han very well, so they didn't chat much.
"Oh, really, what happened today?" Natalie muttered.
"Jennifer, good evening." A blond, bearded middle-aged man came over with a smile.
"Hello, Herman." Jennifer nodded.
"Han,
This Herman is a famous film investor." Lingna said. "I met Jennifer at a charity party last time."
"Oh."
"Who is this?" Before Li Han could speak, Herman noticed that Li Han and Jennifer seemed very close, vaguely like a pair of male and female companions.
"Hello, I'm Li Han." Li Han said with a smile. "I'm also a film investor."
"Film investor?" Herman smiled. "Jennifer, I don't dare to say that I know all the investors in the film industry, but I've never heard of such a young Asian investor."
What Herman meant was that Li Han, this investor, was just a fake. Li Han smiled. "This is my business card."
"Oh, the investor of Teddy Bear?" Herman thought for a long time and suddenly laughed. "Teddy Bear, I remember the movie shot by that animation screenwriter. Haha, God, Universal Pictures withdrew its investment."
"Universal Pictures withdrew its investment?" Natalie and the others looked at Li Han.
"Universal Pictures withdrew 10 million US dollars." Li Han said. "But I think this will be their biggest mistake this year."
"Hahaha, Li, I don't agree with it. I think Universal Pictures made a wise decision. God, who would believe that an animation screenwriter could shoot a movie? I heard that Seth MacFarlane used a little black bear as the protagonist. This is simply the stupidest decision. A little black bear can act. Maybe that little black bear was raised by God in his own backyard."
Herman mocked Li Han loudly. "Poor boy, how much did you invest?"
"30 million dollars." Li Han said lightly.
"What, God, save this poor guy, 30 million, poor boy, maybe you should think about what you should do after bankruptcy, instead of attending a cocktail party." Herman glanced at Jennifer with a little pride.
"30 million, that's not a small amount." The people around, who just heard what Herman said, looked at Li Han with sympathy, of course many of them were gloating, and many of them looked at Li Han as if he were a fool.
"Yes, 30 million is definitely a considerable investment."
"Yes, I think this young man is really unlucky. He invested in a movie that Universal Pictures didn't think highly of. It's a pity. He's too young and ignorant."
"It seems that 30 million will be wasted. It's pitiful."
"Is 3,000 a lot?"
"Who asked such an idiotic question."
"Hey, it's Zhao Anji."
"30 million is really not much for Zhao Anji."
"Yes, I heard that the Zhao family donated more than 50 million US dollars this year."
"Is this kid related to the Zhao family?"
Herman also knew the Zhao family. Compared with Herman, he dared to mock Li Han, but the Zhao family gave him three courages not to say anything.
"I heard that you invested in a movie that Universal Pictures didn't think highly of." Zhao Anji asked with a smile.
"Haha, there are always times when you make mistakes. No one is a saint, right?" Li Han saw Zhao Anji wearing a dress. Compared with the women's dress at noon, she was less aggressive and more charming.
"Haha, daring to admit your mistakes is not something that ordinary people can do easily." Zhao Anji nodded.
"You misunderstood." Li Han said with a smile. "I mean Universal Pictures did something stupid."
"What?" Let alone Zhao Anji, Herman was also stunned.
"Okay, kid, you are really arrogant." Herman said.
"Arrogant, I'm just confident." Li Han said. "Maybe, we can make a bet."
"This movie, I bet I can make a profit of 3,000 US dollars." Li Han said. "How about a bet of 5 million US dollars? If I win, how about you donate 500 US dollars to Ms. Anji's charity fund?"
"What if you lose?" Herman said.
"I will donate 6 million to Ms. Zhao Anji's fund." Li Han said lightly. "I don't know if you dare to bet. If you don't dare, I didn't say it."
"Dare, I Herman, there is nothing I dare not do." Herman thought for a while, gritted his teeth, and said.
"Okay." Li Han smiled and nodded. "Chairman Zhao has witnessed it."
"Everyone be a witness." Li Han said with a smile.
"I'll go prepare the agreement." Lingna said when she saw Li Han looking at her.
It's rare to have such a big commotion before the cocktail party even started, but everyone likes to watch the fun.
"Wait, kid, 30 million investment, down the drain, and donate another 6 million, you'll be getting closer and closer to bankruptcy." Herman showed a hint of satisfaction, and Jennifer would still care at that time.
"Hey, this poor kid, 3000 may be down the drain and he has to pay another 6 million, it's really pitiful, I think he's really going to go bankrupt this time."
"Yes, yes, 36 million, not everyone can take it out, so young, maybe this money is from the family, young people are too impulsive, don't think about the consequences at all."
"More than 30 million is a lot." Zhao Anji said with a smile.
"For a big farmer who earns 900 million US dollars in one auction, this amount of money is nothing, right?"
"What, earn 900 million in one auction?"
"Is it true?"
"Yes, I haven't heard of it."8 For more exciting novels, please visit Dajia Reading Academy
