Rebirth In Hollywood

"May God bless you, Your Highness."

Walking into the open box of the main stand, Ryan and Nicole shook hands with the two princes one after another. The older William said very politely, "Ryan, Nicole, thank you very much for coming to this concert. ."

"It's our pleasure."

As a courtesy, under the guidance of a staff member, Ryan took Nicole and sat next to Tony Blair.

"Hello, Mr. Jenkins. Hello, Miss Kidman."

As soon as he sat down, the Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Great Britain next to him stretched out his hand, and Ryan shook it lightly on it. After Nicole greeted him, he said, "I didn't expect to see you here, Mr. Blair."

"Just call me Tony."

The prime minister, who doesn't deal with the royal family very much, looked at the portrait of Diana hanging in the middle of the new Wembley Stadium and said, "Her Royal Highness The Princess of Wales is a person to be respected."

Why did the other party appear here, regardless of Ryan's business, he nodded and agreed, "It is true."

After chatting a few words with Blair, Ryan suddenly remembered that he was about to step down, and his mind turned quickly.

"Tony, I remember correctly." Ryan turned the subject to this aspect, "You should be leaving office soon, right?"

"Actually." Tony Blair showed a helpless smile, "On the 27th of last month, I submitted my resignation to Her Majesty the Queen."

"What are your plans after leaving office?" Ryan asked directly.

"I want to take a long vacation first."

Hearing Blair's words, Ryan tapped his finger slowly, "Are you interested in being a consultant to Disney?"

"Consultant?" Blair's eyes lit up.

Ryan stopped short, "My people will talk to you in detail if you're interested."

Retired senior government officials become special consultants of business groups to help solve some matters in the field of public relations, politics and even investment. It is the norm in both the UK and the US, these nominal consultants. To put it bluntly, it is actually a political and business "intermediary", using resources such as contacts accumulated during politics to poke benefits for business groups from all over the world.

What's the best thing about Tony Blair?

Undoubtedly, it is a superb PR method to deal with the public and the media.

In front of the public, he always showed the charisma that a political leader should have, and often gave the audience a modern, informal and expressive feeling. Perhaps the most profound TV speech left by the world to Blair was his speech to Dai in August 1997. The speech delivered on the death of Princess Anna, in which he described Diana as "the people's princess", was widely adopted by the media.

Today is a night full of remembrance, the prime minister who just submitted his resignation. Like Prince William, he also gave a brief speech.

"Tonight's concert is about everything our mother loved most - music, dance, charity, family and friends, all proceeds from the concert will be donated to the charitable organization that my mother sponsored during her lifetime, which is the best gift for my mother. birthday present."

After Prince William's brief remarks, Tony Blair also took the stage, "Princess Diana was a very sensitive person, full of compassion, and she embraced things that others might have avoided. Although she was a princess, she Another living person. Everyone knows that. The public loves her for that..."

There was thunderous applause from the audience, no matter how the media hyped it before, at least at this moment, everyone applauded.

After a short memorial ceremony. The concert kicked off, and the opening song was "Farewell, the English Rose", which set a global single sales record, but the singer was definitely not Ryan, a guy who threw away music a long time ago. But Taylor.

"Farewell, our English rose, may you bloom in our hearts forever.

You are kindness personified. Caring and sheltering people who are displaced.

You cry out to the whole world, you whisper comfort to those in distress..."

At the beginning, Taylor's tactful singing voice could still be heard, but after just a few sentences, the singing seemed to awaken the people's memories of that funeral and their recollection of Diana, and a chorus gradually appeared in the audience.

The sound of the chorus was a little messy at first, but it quickly became uniform. The super chorus of nearly 90,000 people in the audience completely overwhelmed Taylor's singing.

"Your whole life is like a candle in the wind, even if the rain doesn't stop, the light never disappears with the setting sun,

And your footsteps will echo forever, on the greenest hills of Great Britain,

The candles will burn out, but your legend will be immortal,

We have lost this lovely man, in the empty days without your smile,

We will forever hold this torch high in honour of England's most noble angel..."

When the song came to an end, applause broke out. When William and Harry stood up, Ryan also stood up and applauded. Everyone in the audience stood up and gave the warmest applause to the huge portrait of Diana hanging above the lawn.

Perhaps the controversy will accompany the name Diana forever, but it cannot stop those who like her from commemorating her.

Besides, after which celebrity dies, there will be no controversy about what he did during his lifetime?

After he leaves this world, maybe there will be more controversy than Diana?

When sitting down, Ryan couldn't help thinking about this aspect. With the style of the media, how would he describe himself at that time? I am afraid that mercenary and cruelty are indispensable, right?

"What are you thinking?" Nicole whispered in his ear.

"When I see God." Ryan also lowered his voice. "What will the media and the public think of me?"

"Can you see God?" Nicole pouted quickly, "You must see Satan then."

"Dear..." Ryan shook her hand secretly, "It hurts me so much that you say that."

"Do you care what others think of you?" Nicole directly exposed the essence of the truth.

"Except you." Ryan shrugged and said nothing more.

What if countless people scolded it? Anyway, I can't hear it anymore. In the words of the previous life, that is to control him in a flood.

"Hello, Miss Swift."

There was a faint voice of Prince Harry on the other side of Nicole. Ryan turned to look. Taylor, who had changed into a formal dress, was walking into the box. Harry seemed to be saying something to her in a low voice. The pair of royal blue There was a hint of helplessness in his beautiful eyes.

Although Taylor is sometimes naughty and willful, he has always been able to distinguish occasions. In such public occasions, he would certainly not be disrespectful to a prince.

About a few minutes later, Tyler came over while shaking hands with the others.

"Can I sit among you?" She seemed to have something to say to the two of them.

Nicole moved to the seat reserved for Taylor in advance. The guy who was already taller than Nicole murmured and sat between the two.

"What happened?" Ryan asked curiously, "Alison?"

"Just got rid of a fly in the background." Taylor applauded gently with the crowd, lowering his voice, "Come here and meet another one."

"Dear..." Nicole tapped her lightly, "This shows that you are a charming big girl."

"Did you mean Harry?"

Ryan couldn't help looking at the direction Taylor was coming from, and Prince Harry seemed to be staring at it all the time.

"Yeah, I just greeted him politely." Tyler rubbed his fingers slowly, "Then he asked me to go horseback riding after the royal luncheon tomorrow."

"Alison's suitors are going to add a prince." Nicole can't wait for all the young talents in the world to be dumped by her sister.

"You refused?"

Hearing Ryan's words, Taylor said helplessly, "In this situation, there are so many people around, how can I refuse?"

"When you were young, the princess still hugged you."

In Ryan's view, even if his sister becomes gay, it is a hundred times better than marrying into the royal family. "It's just a gathering of ordinary friends."

Probably hearing some worry in Ryan's words, Taylor hurriedly said in a low voice, "I have no interest in the royal family and the princess, and I don't want to be the next Princess of Wales and the Duchess of York."

Ryan patted Taylor's hand lightly. His younger sister's character is more lively and outgoing than Diana Spencer and Sarah Ferguson. How could she be bound by the rules of the royal family.

Of course, the royal family will not allow a foreigner, an entertainment star, to become a princess.

The problem is that Taylor is not a simple entertainment star. Her background and upbringing have long been dug up by the media. Behind her are several media groups in the world.

It's hard to say what the increasingly difficult royal family will do.

Thinking of this, Ryan glanced at the side where the two princes were sitting, and Harry's eyes had been withdrawn.

Shaking his head, Ryan put the matter aside for the time being. Since Tyler wasn't interested, there was nothing to worry about.

Marrying into the royal family may seem like a good thing, but people of their class have nothing to look forward to.

Tonight's concert did not become heavy and depressing because it commemorated the Princess of Wales who left the world many years ago, and the singing guests were not all old faces. Young singers from all over the world who were popular also gathered here to remember Dai. Anna.

Interspersed between the performances are memories of people who worked with Diana on charities and those who helped her.

At one time, the British hoped that Diana could become a goodwill ambassador for the United Kingdom. The Princess of Wales was born to know how to communicate with people. She combined business, social and charity, abandoned the old-fashioned face of the royal family, and used close contacts to promote herself and sell. U.K.

To this day, the public still remembers that she was the first celebrity to shake hands with an AIDS patient, that she held the Angolan girl whose legs were blown off by a landmine in her arms, and that the Diana Memorial Foundation established in her name received Yuanyuan within ten years. Continuing donations, and more than 15 million pounds to more than 350 projects.

In short, these make Diana's phrase "I want to be the princess in the hearts of the people" still deeply rooted in the hearts of the people ten years later. (To be continued..) ()
