Chapter 209
(Two chapters, 8400 words.)
"Tracy, you should be busy with your wedding first. I will send a message to Jeff Busker about your second album. If you postpone it, you will postpone it."

Ted and Tracy said together, "Thank you, Logic."

"Small things."

Luo Ji looked at Tracy, who was sitting next to Ted and looked like a little girl. It could be said that she had the opposite idea to Taylor and had temporarily given up her career for love.

Luo Ji was quite envious of Ted and Tracy, who were ordinary, warm and sweet.If Taylor had been like Tracy, the two of them might not have gotten to this point.

It's a pity that Luo Ji fell in love with a wild horse. She has her own dreams and pursuits and will not settle down as a little woman.

Luo Ji quickly gave up this idea and no longer thought about Taylor. He smiled at Robin beside him. Robin was a little confused, but he also smiled at Luo Ji.

Lily suddenly said: "Logic, are you free during this time? We can go camping together sometime."

Luo Ji regretfully said, "I'm going to be very busy next time. I'll invite you all when I have time."

"It's okay, work is important."

Luo Ji looked at Lily and then at Robin, and suddenly an idea came to his mind: "Lily, what is your current job?"

"I work as a kindergarten teacher in a kindergarten."

Luo Ji opened his mouth and said, "Are you interested in charity? I have a charity foundation and I'm hiring people right now. I'm usually very busy. I only work when there are charity projects, donating food to the homeless, and setting up Scholarships, helping poor children, etc.”

Lily said in surprise: "Of course I'm interested. Will Robin join in?"

"It depends on Robin's opinion. I told her before, but she has to think about it."

Lily looked at Robin with hopeful eyes, and Robin glanced at Luo Ji with complicated eyes. He lowered his head and thought for a while before saying, "Okay, I will participate."

Lily was a little worried: "But can we do it? Will it be complicated?"

Luo Ji smiled and said, "It's not complicated at all. In addition to scholarships, we cooperate with large charitable organizations for other charity projects. If you and Robin have groups you want to help, you can also donate to my charity fund." Apply for funds. We can give you a quota of 200 million meters a year."

Lily opened her mouth wide: "200 million?"

Robin was also a little surprised and looked at Luo Ji with surprised eyes.Ted and Matthew also opened their mouths. Only Tracy's performance was okay. As a small singer, she can earn close to 50 meters a year.

Luo Ji gave Lily an affirmative look, then looked at Robin: "Well, it's 200 million. If you run out of money and have any special charity projects you want to do, you can come to me to apply."

The few people were speechless for a moment, slowly digesting what Luo Ji just said.

Robin looked at Luo Ji with complicated eyes, and Luo Ji gave her a big smile.

Luo Ji used it to avoid taxes and solve the charity fund that his relatives around him were usually too bored with. He casually exposed it and surprised these middle class people.

It is said on the Internet that rich people are unhappy. Rich people do think more, are more stressed than ordinary people, and have many worries.But the resources controlled by the rich are indeed incomparable to ordinary people.

What ordinary people struggle to pursue can be easily solved by the rich.

"Will this affect your career?" Robin looked at Luo Ji and asked.

Luo Ji first gave Robin a reassuring look, and then said domineeringly: "Just go ahead and do it. Nothing that money can solve is a problem. This matter is settled, don't mention it again."

Robin lowered his head and took a bite of steak: "Okay."

The Long Live Life Charitable Fund was originally used to support the people around us.Sammy, Queenie, Chucky, Lip, Ian, Carl, and Debbie receive monthly salaries ranging from charity funds.

Luo Ji had long wanted Robin to join in, and by the way, he would give her some credits for her to play around with, so that she wouldn't be so bored normally.

However, Robin was a bit reserved and had been unwilling to accept his financial support.

Luo Ji could only drag Lily in and put pressure on Robin.At the same time, it also allows Lily to have some free time and spend more time with her mother.

He didn't miss Lily's salary, and she didn't want to see the postpartum depression like Sami and Britney happen to Robin.The child’s mother’s mental health still needs to be taken care of.

The atmosphere was a bit solemn, but Tracy smiled and smoothed things over: "Everyone, try this dish. Robin made it."

Matthew picked up a piece and tasted it, then looked at Robin strangely: "Finally, the food you cooked is not terrible to eat!"

"Hahaha." Everyone laughed.

The meal ended quickly. We were shouting, laughing, holding red wine, and sat in front of the TV to continue watching the MTV Awards Ceremony.

More than half of the show has passed, and this year's MTV host is British comedy host Russell Brand.

He's on the show sucking up to Senator Barack.By the way, he criticized Republican presidential candidate John McCain and President Bush.

"I hope everyone will vote for Democratic Senator Barack in the upcoming presidential election."

"Look at the current Republican President Bush, what he has done to the United States, the Iraq war, the subprime mortgage crisis, the collapse of various banks, the increase in unemployment, racial discrimination, countless people have lost their homes and jobs. I don't I feel that after Republican candidate John McCain takes office, he will lead the United States in the right direction. He is a veteran of the Vietnam War, and all he thinks about is war, war!"

"Let us pray that Senator Barack's election next year will bring changes to the United States."

As we approach the election, politics are everywhere.Various award ceremonies and programs in the United States began to sing the praises of Senator Barack.

Luo Ji couldn't help but feel envious. It would be great if he could have such control over the media.

"Who are you going to vote for this year?" Luo Ji asked a few people around him.

"Senator Barack!" Lily said.

"Senator Barack!" Ted said.

……

After several people had finished answering, everyone looked at Robin, who had not expressed his opinion.

Robin looked confused: "I'm Canadian, okay, you're asking me this!"

"Hahahaha." Everyone laughed

Luo Ji looked at Robin beside him. She was very beautiful tonight. Her face was flushed after drinking a little wine. There was also a faint smell of perfume coming from her body.

Luo Ji quietly reached out from behind the sofa and hugged Robin naturally.Robin looked at him in surprise, but all he saw was Luo Ji staring at the TV.

She didn't refuse, moved her body a little, found a more comfortable position, leaned her head on Luo Ji's shoulder, and quietly watched the program on TV.

Tracy suddenly exclaimed in surprise: "Britney has won another award! She has already won three awards."

Matthew said: "I feel that Britney's MV is not that good. Look at Katy Perry and Mariah Carey. Their MVs are not better than Britney's."

Ted said: "The MTV Awards are chosen by the audience. I feel that the public's sympathy for her is very high now. People are tired of seeing this poor girl constantly being besieged by the media. I heard that she is still here Being supervised by her father. She has bottomed out and everyone is starting to support her now. What do you think? Logic."

"Absolutely." Luo Ji said casually.

Tracy said: "Are you nominated this time?"

Luo Ji: "I did not release an album this year, only a soundtrack, so I was not nominated for many album categories. I was only nominated for Best Video of the Year, which is the MV award for singles."

Lily said: "This is the final award."

"Ah."

The live TV broadcast continued, the camera switched, and host Russell Brand began to introduce: "This year, a dark horse suddenly appeared in the summer season, and that is "The Twilight Saga." So far, the global box office of the movie has reached 4.63 million dollars. Next, let's welcome the cast of "The Twilight Saga."" Behind the host appeared Constance Wu, Taylor Lautner and Kristen Stewart.The TV cameras were on several actors.

Robin asked: "Why didn't you go?"

Luo Ji looked at her with a smile: "Don't I want to spend more time with you?"

"Funny words." After Robin finished speaking, he moved his body slightly and got closer to Luo Ji.

Of course Luo Ji knew that these actors from "The Twilight Saga" would appear on the show. This came from the PR of the MTV movie company they were working with.However, Luo Ji was too busy and had important things to attend to during this period, so he declined MTV's invitation.

Kristen on the TV smiled and said: "Logic was originally going to come, but because he had a quarrel with Musk, he didn't have time. He should be still writing now, thinking about how to fight back."

"Ha ha ha ha……"

Both at the MTV awards ceremony and everyone in the room laughed out loud when they heard this.

Some time ago, Musk said in the media that Luo Ji had evil intentions.Luo Ji countered that he was too sensitive and that normal business acquisitions would frighten him like that.

Luo Ji thought that after he counterattacked, the matter would end just like that.Unexpectedly, Musk became addicted and kept bickering with Luo Ji in the media.

Robin smiled and said, "How are you going to fight back next?"

Luo Ji curled his lips and said, "He's just a clown, I won't pay attention to him anymore!"

Luo Ji was overwhelmed with anger at first, but he also realized in the past two days that Musk, a business elite, could be so bored that he would argue with him in the media. This was Musk using his popularity to give Tesla Pull ads.

M-Fxxk, the cunning bastard.

Ted yelled, "Paris Hilton is the guest of honor!"

Matthew smiled: "MTV can really cause trouble! Last year it was insulting, but this year it's just you and me."

Before you know it, the presentation of the MTV Video Music Awards has come to an end, and the nearly two-hour live broadcast will soon end.

Tracy said: "Logic, will you be nominated for Video of the Year next?"

"Ah."

"If you win an award, who will give you your acceptance speech? Is it Lady Gaga?"

"How could it be her? I just broke up with her in the media. If I win an award, it will be Bruno Mars from the company who helps me go on stage to accept the award."

On TV, Taylor Swift, who had never appeared except for the opening performance, was wearing an off-white dress and walked out of the backstage with a smile and a microphone.

When the audience saw her, they applauded to welcome her.

This 18-year-old girl is a true genius and the most dazzling singer in the United States this year.

Taylor picked up the microphone, looked at the camera seriously and said: "Music is a universal language. Regardless of race, everyone can experience emotions from music. And music MVs can better express the emotions that the creator wants to convey. Below, The award will be given to the best video of the year."

The screen switched, a pre-made short film was played on the TV, and a voice that looked very much like a female robot sounded.Then the astronaut who marked the MTV Astros Trophy appeared, walking inside the spacecraft.

During the process, you will pass by small screens with MV clips of the award-winning songs.The idea of ​​the video is very good.

"Britney Spears "Piece of Me," Chris Brown "Forever," Jonas Brothers "Burnin' Up," The Pussycat Dolls "When I Grow Up," Logic "Perfect."

The pictures on TV were very scheming. Luo Ji’s MV for “Perfect” contained a clip of him and Taylor dancing in the snow.As the last nomination ended, the scene switched to the awards ceremony.

Taylor smiled and picked up the envelope and opened it. Her face turned livid when she saw it, and then she showed a forced smile: "The winner is Logic, "Perfect"."

The moment Taylor finished speaking, the song "Perfect" rang out.

The camera switched to a wide-angle shot, and you could see the surprised expressions of many singers under the audience, as well as the boos of many audience members.Then many people in the audience started shouting.

"Tyler, Taylor, Taylor..."

"Logic is a jerk."

Bruno Mars listened to the clamor and could only bite the bullet and walk on stage.Taylor handed the Astronaut Trophy to Mars and stood away from the camera.

"Logic can't come in person, so let me receive this trophy on my behalf..."

During the acceptance speech, the camera showed many singers below. Lady Gaga looked surprised, Brother Jonathan gloated, and Britney looked at Taylor with hostility.

Immediately afterwards, the award ceremony came to an end, and the host began to take the stage to do the finishing work.

When Luo Ji and the others in front of the TV saw this scene, they didn't say anything.

Ted saw that the atmosphere was a little solemn: "This..."

Luo Ji interrupted with a smile: "Hahaha, it's okay."

…………

An hour later, the party ended.Fiona drove the dark-faced Luo Ji home in her car. Robin held Luo Ji's hand and comforted him.

Silently all the way, the vehicle drove to Robin's home.Sammy, Queenie, and Chucky saw the vehicle and came out to greet it.

After getting out of the car, Luo Ji said to several people with a livid face, "I'll go to the back and make a phone call."

"What's wrong?" Sammy asked Fiona beside him.

Luo Ji came to the backyard, took out his cell phone, and looked at the pool under the moonlight. The sparkling waves were just like the lake Luo Ji had seen in Nashville at night.very beautiful.

He took a deep breath and dialed Taylor's number.After a few seconds, the call was connected.The two people, who had not spoken for several months, finally spoke on the phone.

Luo Ji raised his eyebrows and said, "Taylor Swift, I think I'm good enough for you. I helped promote your album and invested in you to make money. Apart from emotional matters, I haven't sorry for you! As for your repeated comments in the media Are you going to whip my corpse? How many more times are you going to use our feelings to hype up!"

"This time it was MTV who was causing trouble, and I definitely did not cooperate with them. They told me that the winner was Britney, so I agreed. If I had known that it was you who won the award, I would definitely not have agreed to them."

Luo Ji questioned: "Don't say that you don't have the idea of ​​​​hype in your heart. You have always been so ambitious."

"I swear to God, I don't have such thoughts!"

Luo Ji roared angrily: "MTV is famous for causing trouble. How stupid are you to believe them so easily?"

"I'm stupid! I'm stupid! I didn't believe them just to catch up with you."

Taylor cried and shouted: "If it weren't for what you did, would we be where we are now? It's obviously you who messed up everything, but you blame me."

Luo Ji said angrily: "Fxxk you, Taylor. Don't think that tears can make me soft. I will never accommodate you like before. I don't want to see you hyping up our feelings in the media anymore. This will make me feel sad." Our relationship looks cheap. I warn you, this is the last time."

"You bastard...arrogant."

Taylor's loud crying came from the other end of the phone. Luo Ji stroked the phone, wondering whether he should hang up.

Suddenly, Robin, Sammy, Queenie, Fiona and Chucky appeared at the back door, looking at him with worried faces.Maybe the sound just now woke up the two children on the second floor, who were crying.

Luo Ji hung up the phone, put his phone in his pocket, and walked towards them with a smile.
