American Entertainment: Taylor Swift wrote a song for the beginning

Chapter 267 This tiny place is rich; don’t I have any face?

Seeing Ryan sitting down, Charlotte Casiraghi seemed a little excited: "It is worthy of the design that even Anna Wintour was amazed by. I saw a lot of unusual elements..."

She talked eloquently, bringing up many names of designers Ryan had never heard of, and comparing these people to Ryan.

Ryan answered casually, looking at the little daughter of the Borromeo family beside her from time to time.

"I've never heard of the designers you mentioned. As for functional style and Y2K style, I didn't know much about them before." Ryan shook his head.

"then you……"

"It's just to make money. I'm a pop singer, so I make music based on what's popular, and the same goes for clothing. I don't like big talk, and I don't like talking big with others. So why don't we talk about more practical topics?" Ryan had heard enough, so he said what was in his mind.

Beatrice Borromeo couldn't help but smile secretly, she felt that Ryan was completely different from those men who often appeared in high-end occasions. At least he was very down-to-earth.

"Interesting, that fits my stereotype of rude Americans." Charlotte's boyfriend couldn't help but smile.

"I just don't want to waste time. The so-called rudeness can be said to be casual. Do you want to know why? Because the United States is a big country with a vast territory and military bases all over the world. These people don't feel inferior at all when they come to a foreign country. As for you French men... forget it, I'll give you some face." Ryan shrugged.

There are two countries in the world whose people don't dress up like that. One is the United States, and the other is Lao Zhong. In contrast, Koreans always have an inexplicable self-esteem, fearing that they will be looked down upon. This is a kind of inferiority in their bones.

"At least we are very professional in surrendering." The other party laughed self-deprecatingly. As Charlotte's boyfriend, he is also a well-known comedian and talk show host in France.

"But then again, since you are so disdainful of this place, why did you come here to hold a press conference?" the other party continued.

"I don't look down on this place. To be precise, I don't understand the thoughts of some people here. Maybe you think all this is normal. You were born with a silver spoon in your mouth and have everything. You go to high-end parties on weekends. Just because your ancestors did something great, you are born nobler than others. Don't rush to deny it. I know you think so in your heart." Ryan looked at them.

"But I never believed in the concept of 'nobility'. The so-called nobility is just an indoctrinated fantasy. True nobility comes from a person's actions and choices, not the resources given at birth."

Charlotte looked at her boyfriend, and the two of them looked at each other in confusion.

"True nobility comes from a person's actions and choices. That's a great statement!" Beatrice looked at Ryan with sparkling eyes and added, "Many times, we live in the past and ignore what we really want."

Ryan nodded: "Now there is an opportunity in front of you, it depends on how you choose."

Ryan didn't say these words just to indoctrinate a few people. He didn't expect them to really change their minds. He just thought that Monaco, a small and rich place, was a gold mine, and he just happened to have a shovel in his hand.

If we really talk about wealth, the Monaco royal family is not as rich as the Middle Eastern tycoons, nor as rich as Liechtenstein and Luxembourg in Europe. As for the most famous British royal family, their assets are too dispersed and they have many valuable antiques, such as crowns and scepters, so they cannot be compared. But they are definitely one of the richest royal families ranked T1 in the world.

Whether or not the financial resources are strong is secondary. What is more important is that the Monaco royal family attaches great importance to business operations and high-value investments. They made their fortune with these.

The Monaco F1 Grand Prix, the Monte Carlo Casino, a number of historical buildings, and various high-end shopping places, tourism and consumption are the main themes of Monaco.

It is hard not to make money by opening an extremely luxurious nightclub in such a consumption place where high-end European people gather, with the strong support of the local royal family, a living business card.

Considering that they are regarded as a thorn in the eyes of their European counterparts, they must gain local support to penetrate into the heart of Europe. No matter how you look at it, members of the Monaco royal family are an excellent choice.

If successful, subsequent expansion in Europe will be much easier.

After listening to Ryan's introduction, Charlotte fell into deep thought.

"Of course I know about the reputation of the Broken Room, but... there is no precedent after all. I need to discuss it with my mother and uncle. But you can come with me to Monaco and investigate the local environment." Charlotte thought about it and showed interest.

"It's settled then." Ryan nodded.

I was not wrong in my guess. The members of the Monaco royal family do have a special liking for investment.

Judging from what Charlotte said, Prince Albert will personally inquire about it.

"But you have to be prepared for a major investment. Housing prices in Monaco are very expensive. As you know, Monaco is only 2.2 square kilometers and every inch of land is valuable. Moreover, we have very high requirements for entertainment facilities. They must be the best in Europe and even the world. This expense is very large." Charlotte added.

The housing prices in Monaco can only be described as outrageous, with an average price of US$5.8 per square meter, while in Hong Kong it is only US$3 (data from 2023).

However, high housing prices also mean high consumption. If a bottle of wine sells for $100 in Florida, it will cost $500 or even more in Monaco.

"You are going back to Monaco? Can I go with you?" Beatrice said at this time.

"Want to eat and drink for free again?" Charlotte laughed.

"It's not a free meal. Next time when you two come to visit our archipelago, I will treat you with the best treatment." Beatrice laughed.

Our archipelago, look, is this human language?

Ryan then agreed with Charlotte on the specific time to go to Monaco, then said goodbye and left. Seeing Ivanka sitting alone, he walked over and sat next to her.

"The royal family of Monaco? Those people often attend various events in Europe and have a high level of exposure. In essence, they are just like the British royal family, using aristocratic culture as a selling point to attract tourists." Ivanka said.

"As for Beatrice next to her, I remember she had appeared in some fashion magazines before. She became a fashion model at the age of 15 and walked the runway for Chanel, Valentino, and Trussadi. She was also the spokesperson for Blumarine." Ivanka knew Beatrice.

"I don't understand why all of you who come from wealthy backgrounds like to be models?" Ryan complained. Almost all of the women of this type that he knew were models to some extent.

"Because women just like to wear all kinds of beautiful clothes, and becoming a model just proves that they are tall and have a unique temperament, doesn't it?" Ivanka laughed.

"More importantly, it's easier to be a model," Ryan said.

"That's true." Ivanka laughed. "But Beatrice is indeed very elegant, gentle and not short. She embodies the ideal image of an aristocrat."

Ryan had to admit this. From the time he met her until now, all of Beatrice's movements, from standing to sitting, to clapping, were in line with aristocratic etiquette. Little did he know that a few years later Beatrice would really become the brand ambassador of Dior.

"Like a puppet, Pinocchio?" Ryan made an analogy.

"If she heard you say this, she would definitely refute you in the newspaper," Ivanka continued.

"Her family also has a media business?"

"That's not the case. She is currently a full-time reporter for an Italian newspaper. The section she is in charge of is not about the fancy aristocratic life, but serious current affairs news. She discusses current affairs and social ills in the newspaper, and her writing is sharp and pointed. The people she interviews are congressmen, documentary writers, and candidates for the presidential election in Colombia."

"How old is she?" Ryan couldn't help but wonder. He had the impression that people who held such positions were usually very old.

"Anyway, he is younger than me. He should be about 24 years old, right?" Ivanka thought for a moment.

"Do you have a boyfriend?" Ryan couldn't help but ask. "How should I know? Are you attracted to her?" Ivanka joked.

"Who does Ryan like now?" Taylor was finally able to get away. He had just been surrounded by a group of guests asking for autographs and photos. Taylor would never refuse such a thing.

"She only wants to become the Princess of Monaco. She won't be interested in a commoner like me." Ryan immediately shook his head and went on to tell the two about his previous communication with the Monaco royal family.

"If we can directly promote cooperation this time, that would be best. If not, just treat it as a trip." Ryan looked at the two of them, ready to let them go with him.

Taylor shook his head: "I'm afraid there's no chance this time. I have a series of European tours waiting for me."

"I would love to go." Ivanka sighed, "But you left the Spirit Club to me. I have to get back to work as soon as possible."

It's really unfortunate that the three of them may have to act separately during this period of time.

"Okay, such a good social opportunity can't be wasted. I have to go meet some new friends." Ivanka left her seat and called Taylor this time, and the two walked towards Beatrice.

·
The next day, Ryan and the Olsen sisters saw Ivanka and Olsen off on their return private plane.

"When will you come back?" Olsen stood in front of Ryan and asked reluctantly.

"I'll be back naturally after finishing my work. There's no point in worrying." Ivanka pulled Aolina directly up the stairs to the plane.

After Ryan watched the two of them walk into the cabin, he turned around and got into the car. On the way back, the Olsen sisters reported on their work and said that the joint products of Dior and Stray would be successfully launched this week. These clothes would be sold not only in Ivanka's offline stores, but also in Dior's stores around the world.

The latter is the most important thing.

Then Ryan made a phone call: "Berrick, you can hand over the collected evidence to the media."

Then I started to plan my next schedule.

In Europe, in addition to the upcoming trip to Monaco, there is also Leona Lewis’ contract that needs to be dealt with.

This time after returning to the United States, my schedule was packed.

The Bad Room branch in Los Angeles has begun to be renovated, and "EASY A" is about to start shooting. We also need to go to Silicon Valley to visit the ins office and finalize the investment agreement, and by the way, visit Marvel Studios. After that, we have to go to the Victoria's Secret headquarters in Oregon. This year's Victoria's Secret show is about to begin preliminary preparations.

Fortunately, Ivanka returned early and will be able to stay in Florida to help look after the house.

The car went straight to the hotel. Taylor was packing his luggage. The concert team had already left for Marseille, and Taylor would also leave tomorrow. They would be separated for a while.

"Why are you here too?" Ryan discovered that the person who opened the door was the "number freak" Karlie Kloss.

"I came to play with my sister." Carly said.

Now that everyone has left, I finally have some time alone with Taylor. It's an adult matter, so kids shouldn't interfere. Ryan complained in his heart and followed him into the room.

"I asked Carly to come." Taylor said in the living room of the suite, sticking his head out.

"Have you finished packing?" Ryan sat next to Taylor.

"Erica has taken care of everything. We'll leave tomorrow morning." Taylor nodded and automatically leaned on Ryan's shoulder.

"Carly, I have something to say to Taylor, please step aside for a moment." Ryan said.

Without waiting for Carly to move, Taylor asked Carly to stay in the living room.

"There's nothing she can't hear. Do you want to talk about Ivanka?" Taylor looked at Ryan with his big eyes.

"Ivanka? What happened between her and Ryan?" Carly asked curiously.

"I forgot to tell you that Ivanka is pregnant with Ryan's child, and now the three of us live together," Taylor explained.

"What?" Carly's brain suddenly froze.

"You heard me right. I think instead of letting Ryan run around, it's better for him to just come back to one home. Ivanka comes from a wealthy family. With this child, Ryan can borrow the resources of the other's father. This is a good thing for Ryan. As for me, I really think it's a good thing for Ryan to have more companions. It makes the home more lively." Taylor said slowly, fiddling with his golden bangs.

Carly pouted and looked at Ryan angrily: "Is this really okay?"

There was a hint of indignation for Taylor in his eyes.

"It's nothing. If Ryan is happy, I'm happy too. Other women and stuff are actually not a big deal." Taylor said.

"So what's a big deal?"

"You are still young, you will understand later."

"I'm only three years younger than you two."

"But you don't even have a boyfriend. You're already 17 years old, still a fledgling. Why don't you let Ryan help you?" Taylor laughed.

Carly blushed: "Anyone can do it, but not him. Ryan is your fiancé, how can I hurt you."

"You're blushing. Look at what you said. It's not that serious. I know you like Ryan and Ryan likes you too. Now that the door has been opened, I might as well take you along as well." Taylor expressed his plan.

"Wait a minute! I only treat her as a sister." Ryan said immediately.

"Because you treat her as your sister, you will treat her better in the future. I also like Carly. I think this is very suitable and good for Carly. She is a model with no education and is silly. She can't find a reliable man." Taylor analyzed Carly's future.

"Who said I can't find a reliable man? There are many people pursuing me." Carly said anxiously.

"Then why haven't you been in a relationship yet?" Taylor asked back.

"I..." Carly opened her mouth, but no answer came out.

"Okay, it's settled. I'll be leaving tomorrow, and you don't have anything to do during this period, so accompany Ryan to Monaco." Taylor made up his mind.

Wait a minute, you two have said so much, have you ever considered my feelings? Don't I have any dignity? Ryan complained.
