Chapter 1284

Claire Underwood smiled and faced everyone, and generously introduced the details of the water purification plan, and asked the assistant to launch a row of display racks with many photos on them.

Claire said: "These photos were taken by my friend, famous photographer Adam Galleway in places like Philippines, and the content shows the disasters caused by drought and lack of water and lack of clean drinking water in poor areas.

There are nearly seven billion people living on this planet. We can taste delicious red wine in a high-sounding hotel, but at the same time, countless adults and children suffer from dirty water, and hundreds of thousands of children are lost every year.

Life. As the founder of the Water Purification Project, I, Claire Underwood, sincerely hope to get help from you!”

There was a lot of sighs everywhere. Many people just came to attend the cocktail party, but they didn't expect to encounter fundraising.

Some supporters of the Elephant Party even sneered. They may also be keen on charity, but they will never donate money to the organization founded by the Donkey Party’s wrenched wife.

Claire walked to one of the photos.

It was a black and white photo. The woman in the center of the picture was pressing the handle of the water pressing well with force. The faucet was filled with vessels of all sizes. A little girl stood in front of the water pressing well with her face full of expectations.

In the distance of the picture, you can see many people lined up with utensils in a long line... Although the photos did not show the complete picture, it still reminds people of how many people survived such a small water well.

hope!

Claire said with emotion: "This is a picture taken by Adam in a small town outside Amravitti, India. The woman in the middle is named Tiala. Three weeks after taking this photo, Tiala

He died, the cause of death was malaria caused by dirty water…”

A sigh rang around.

Just listening to something is different from hearing it after seeing the picture.

Claire said: "The purpose of the water purification plan is to let women like Teala live."

I don’t know who took the lead in applauding, and there was a burst of applause around me. Even those who supported the Elephant Party could only take a few shots in this atmosphere.

After the applause stopped, Claire continued: "Adam Galleway is a very promising photographer. His works have appeared on the cover of Time magazine and have won several internationally renowned awards. He has been in New York, Los Angeles.

Dongdu and Haizhou have held several solo film exhibitions. This time, in order to support the water purification program, he donated dozens of works shot around the world for charity, hoping to help the whole world not drink clean water.

People. If you are interested, you can ask for a price now.”

There is a small label at the bottom of each photo, and the price is basically between 5,000 and 10,000 yuan. For these rich people in the market, it is just the price of a bottle of wine.

Anyone who wants to donate the water purification plan can buy that photo, which not only gains a good reputation for donating and giving, but also obtains a work by a famous photographer.

Many people walked over to inquire. Li Rui pulled Fu Shande and whispered a few words. He said in surprise: "Are you sure?"

"Sure."

Fu Shande walked over, greeted Claire first, and said a few words to him.

Claire showed a look of surprise and looked at Li Rui.

Li Rui raised his wine glass and waved at Claire from afar.

Claire nodded slightly, with a happy smile on his face.

"I'm sorry, everyone." Claire said, "A gentleman who didn't want to be named just now offered a million magnesium and bought all the photos here. Thanks very much for his kindness and generosity, I promise that all the funds will be used.

Come and improve the drinking water cleaning plan for people in poor areas, and may God bless us!”

Everyone was shocked.

Who is such a big deal?

The one who spent millions of magnesium to buy all the photos was naturally Li Rui, and he also got the opportunity to chat with Claire alone.

"Mr. Li, thank you for your generosity!" This time, Claire's attitude changed by 180 degrees and became much more enthusiastic.

"I am very moved by my wife's dedication to charity and environmental protection, and I am willing to follow her to do something within my ability for charity." Li Rui said modestly.

Claire said with a smile on his face: "This is the first time the water purification program has received donations from Huaguo, which is really incredible!"

Li Rui said: "If my wife wants to, I hope to reach long-term cooperation with the water purification program, such as providing you with a funding quarterly or six months."

Claire was stunned and looked at Li Rui deeply and said, "If Mr. Li has this intention, I will definitely welcome him..."

The conversation didn't last long, and Claire hurriedly said goodbye.

She left and Stamp came over.

Compared to Claire's high-sounding reputation, Stamp is much more straightforward: "Can the funds you provide for the water purification program ensure that it is very clean?

Li Rui smiled and said, "It's as clean as the water provided to impoverished areas by the water purification program!"

Stamp was slightly stunned, then smiled and said, "After the cocktail party, let's have another drink. I know a bar is very good!"

The following cocktail party was a bit boring. Technology seems to have no borders, but those who create technology have borders. Silicon Valley entrepreneurs seem to have a sense of alienation from the faces of Li Rui like him, even though they are chatting.

He was very polite at the time, but it could be seen that his attitude was quite distant.

Li Rui didn't even touch his face and put his cold butt on him. The only one worthy of him was Claire in the audience. To be honest, he didn't take it seriously yet!

Before the reception was over, Claire said goodbye first and came over to say hello to Li Rui before leaving.

"I hope I'll have the opportunity to meet you at the Water Purification Program Headquarters in Washington."

"I hope so too." Li Rui smiled.

Not long after Claire left, Li Rui also said goodbye and left, and headed to a nearby bar.

After chatting with Fu Shande for a while, the bar door opened and Stamp walked in.

He sat straight to Li Rui, snapped his fingers at the bartender and said, "Tequila!"

Then he said to Li Rui: "I need something amazing!"

The bartender brought tequila, and Stamp swallowed it in one gulp, pushed the cup back and said, "One more."

Fu Shande smiled and said, "You seem to be under a lot of pressure."

Stamp pointed to his head and said, "Did I have so little hair when we met last time?"

Fu Shande nodded and said, "You are really under a lot of pressure."

Stamp killed the second cup of Tequila, and then said to Li Rui: "What do you want from Frank?"
