Chapter 445
Tom was a little surprised by Elliot's words. He had roughly known in advance that the title of charity
ambassador could bring him lots of advantages, but he had never thought that the title turned out to be
so beneficial, which was almost a gold medal for survival.
"How could the title charity ambassador be so useful?" Tom asked doubtfully.
It was not his fault as he suspected that because philanthropic activities were held quite frequently at
home. Many donations could be seen on TV.
Besides, doing charity was entirely voluntary. Generally speaking, the identity as a charity ambassador
was not that important.
Elliot saw Tom's confusion and quickly explained, "Chairman, there's something you don't know.
Tonight's charity party is organized by the government. Many famous entrepreneurs from G State and
the south will come. Most importantly, there have been several disasters in the country over the years,
resulting in a deficit in the national treasury and an unprecedented desire for charity. Especially a while
ago, there were natural disasters... So tonight's charity party is of different significance. This also
means that the sum of money donated for charity tonight will definitely reach an astonishing amount. Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.
As long as you become the charity ambassador this time, your social status will be raised
substantially!"
After a pause, Elliot said seriously, "Chairman, I think it's necessary for you to get the title of charity
ambassador tonight. This will be of great help for your development in H Country in the future."
Tom was smart. He definitely understood the value of the identity as the charity ambassador tonight.
Especially now that LT Organization had reappeared and discovered his existence, which meant that
he had been in a more dangerous situation. At this time, if he obtained the identity as the charity
ambassador and got the attention of the government, he would have a layer of protection. LT
Organization had to think twice before taking actions against him.
Soon, he made up his mind.
At the same time, similar voices were heard in many places at the scene. They all wanted to get the
identity as the charity ambassador tonight.
Bard clenched his fists and looked at the trophy of the charity ambassador on the stage. His eyes were
filled with passion and he had to get it.
Not long after, the host announced that tonight's charity event would begin. First, he proposed a project
to help the disabled and called for everyone to bid enthusiastically.
"I donate 10 million!"
"I donate 15 million!"
"I donate 20 million!"
As the host's voice fell, many people began to raise their hands and shout out the amount of money
they wanted to donate. The amount of money was larger one by one. And the minimum was ten million
dollars.
In less than ten minutes, the amount of donations had already reached more than two billion dollars. If
this was spread out, it would cause quite a shock in society.
One should know that the donations seen on the news were hundreds of thousands. Millions or tens of
millions of donations were rare.
It was just the first charity project, but more than two billion dollars had been raised. It was
unbelievable. After all, the money donated had no effect on donors themselves.
At this moment, a loud voice sounded. It was Bard. He had a confident smile on his face and said, "I
donate 200 million dollars to support our country's charity projects and carry out the positive energy."
His words were heard and immediately caused a big shock on the scene. Bard donated 200 million
dollars in one single bid. North Sky Association indeed lived up to its fame. It was both powerful and
rich.
North Sky Association's main business was about security. But this didn't mean that it didn't have any
other businesses. On the contrary, the business that it really made profits from was not security, but
other projects. Security was just their foundation. By infiltrating the bodyguards around the big shots of
all parties, it got the information and made profits in every business it did.
Two hundred million was just a hair off a bull's back for the Northern Sky Association.
When he called out this amount, he immediately caused a lot of shock in the audience, and many
people cried out in surprise.
"As expected, it's the North Sky Association. It donated 200 million dollars directly at the beginning. It's
so rich!"
"Yes. It seems that Bard will be the charity ambassador tonight!"
"It's great to have money."
"I wonder if Tom will compete with Bard."
"Tom? Forget it. When it comes to fighting, Tom is really good and he the best throughout the G State.
But when it comes to wealth, ten Tom can't be compared to the North Sky Association."
"That's true..."
For a moment, all kinds of voices rang out in the audience. More than half of the people gave up the
idea of fighting for the title as charity ambassador when they saw Bard take action.
After all, they didn't have as much money as the North Sky Association.
The activity tonight was no better than an auction, where money was spent and something valuable
could be bought back. This was charity. They spent money only to gain a good reputation. There was
nothing they could benefit from.
When Bard heard the voices of shock around him, his face showed a smug expression. At this
moment, he was the main character, and tonight's charity ambassador belonged to him inevitably.
Soon, he looked at Tom with disdain.
He admitted that Tom was indeed a genius. Tom was not only proficient in cultivation, but also highly
talented in doing business. But so what? North Sky Association had been operating in the south for so
long, and the wealth it accumulated was not something that a small boss like Tom could had.
Tom naturally saw Bard's mockery. He just smiled lightly and didn't take it to heart. He raised his hand
and shouted out the money he would donate, "I'll donate 30 million dollars."
When Bard heard this, he smiled even more disdainfully and said to Tom, "Tom, as the chairman of
three companies, you only donate 30 million dollars? Thank you for saying it."
When the people around him heard this, they were indeed a little surprised by Tom words. Did Tom quit
fighting for the identity as the charity ambassador tonight?
It was okay if he didn't fight for it. But Bard was so disrespectful to him, was Tom not going to say
something?
Could it be that Tom was outwardly strong and inwardly weak? He was afraid of the North Sky
Association? Or was it that Tom got serious injuries that could not be healed when he fought with May?
For a moment, many people saw Tom's reaction and began to think about it.
Tom was too lazy to answer. He closed his eyes and began to recuperate.
Even Elliot and Malcolm were made a little confused by Tom. Based on Tom's property, he should have
donated more than 30 million dollars, although this was only the first charity project.
Soon, a second charity project came.
It was about caring for the elderly, and many people also began to raise their hands and say the
amount of money donated.
Because of Bard's donation of two hundred million just now, the amount of money in many people's
second donation was much less.
The highest donation was only 40 million dollars. Seeing this, the smile on Bard's lips deepened. He
thought that tonight's charity ambassador must be him.
So this time, he didn't donate another two hundred million, but one hundred million. He thought this
was enough.
He looked at Tom again and said jokingly, "Mr. Howard, it's your turn. I don't know how much you will
donate. It won't be 30 million, right?"
All of a sudden, everyone's eyes were on Tom. They were all curious that whether Tom would fight
back as he faced Bard's repeated provocations.
Just then, Tom spoke and raised a finger.
Bard laughed when he saw it. "Hahaha, ten million? Tom, you're really stingy!"
However, as soon as he finished speaking, Tom added, "One billion."
In an instant, Bard's smile froze on his face.
