Chapter 732 What I want is not money

As night fell and the day's activities ended, the delegation did not leave, but chose to stay in the city for one night, which was close to the Somalia border. Instead of taking a risk to return to Nairobi at night, it would be better to wait for dawn before leaving. After all, there is a regular Kenyan border guard stationed here.

As a border city, the hotel's accommodation and dining conditions are of course not much better. Matthew has been here once and has done enough preparations.

It’s okay to have dietary problems, but the biggest trouble is that there are too many mosquitoes in the hotel.

"Luckily, the wind oil spirit is carried with you, and this time I also brought mosquito repellent." Matthew sat in the room, smelling a pungent smell, and the mosquitoes seemed to fly away from the open door. "It's indeed a must-have medicine for traveling at home."

This time when he came here, among the gifts he gave to the refugee camps and orphan welfare homes, there were a lot of whipped oil essence and cooling oil.

Judging from the feedback, the black uncles seem to like these small gifts very much.

"Ah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah"

A sneezing sound suddenly came from the door of the room. Emma Watson appeared at the door, knocked on the door lightly, and asked, "Matthew, can I come in?"

Matthew said quickly, "Please come in."

Emma Watson, wrapped in a thin blanket with only his head exposed, walked in, rubbed his nose gently, and asked, "What's the spray in your room? It smells pungent."

"Oh..." Matthew picked up a small green bottle and shook it, "A medicine for repelling mosquitoes."

Emma Watson tilted his head, paused carefully for a while, looked around again, and said, "It seems that there are no mosquitoes in your room?"

Matthew shrugged, "All have been driven away."

"Close the door quickly." Emma Watson turned around and closed the door, saying, "Don't run in again in a while."

She walked to the sofa in the center of the room and sat down, pointing to the red spots on her face, "There are too many mosquitoes, I'm almost bitten to death. I suspect I can suck people's blood dry in one night."

Matthew grabbed a large box of erection and a bottle of mosquito repellent and placed it on the coffee table in front of Emma Watson, "It would be better to sprinkle a little in the room."

"Let's talk about it later." Emma Watson picked it up and looked at it. "I don't want to go back now. If I get bitten a few more times, I'll be disfigured. There are still many Harry Potter promotional activities to participate in when I go back to Europe. How thick can the foundation be covered?"

Matthew picked up a can of herbal tea and handed it to Emma Watson, "You can stay here for me later. I'll go to your room later and spray some mosquito repellent for you."

Emma Watson glanced at the strange herbal tea and asked, "Is there anything to eat?"

"Didn't you eat supper?" Matthew opened his suitcase, found the prepared bread, picked a few of them with different tastes and handed it to Emma Watson, "This is the only bread."

"You've prepared very well." Emma Watson was not polite, and he opened a loaf of bread and started eating.

Seeing that she was not interested in herbal tea, Matthew took out a bottle of mineral water from her suitcase and placed it in front of her.

Emma Watson unscrewed the water bottle and took a sip, then looked at Matthew's suitcase, "You won't prepare a suitcase, do you?"

Matthew nodded, "I've been here once and knows that the situation here is not good. I specially bought it before departure."

Emma Watson ate a small bread, drank one-third of the bottle of water, and then stopped. Like the actresses in the circle, she was obviously controlling the calories she consumed.

"It wouldn't be true that you said you would donate all the proceeds from Fast and Furious 4 in the afternoon, right?" Emma Watson asked tentatively.

Matthew said this for many reasons. After all, the real control is in the hands of him and David Ellison, and such words are not suitable for saying it, so he had to vaguely say, "I just looked a little further. I still want to shoot many movies in the "Fast and Furious" series."

Emma Watson tilted his head and looked at Matthew and asked, "Is it worth it that you invested so much in charity?"

"You will understand later." Matthew smiled, without answering directly, just said, "Emma, ​​I am also a businessman in addition to being an actor."

Emma Watson can certainly hear the meaning behind this sentence. How could a businessman do a loss-making business?

Matthew donated all the funds from his two charitable foundations. Although some of the funds from his personal foundations come from him, more of them are raised.

This is the advantage of top celebrities doing charity.

"Emma..." Matthew pulled a sofa chair and sat opposite Emma Watson, saying, "From the current social development situation, the feminist movement is becoming more and more intense, and there are children's rights, which will always be the core of the family."

He said seriously, "Persist in the public welfare undertakings in feminism and children, and ignore the efforts and gains for the time being, it will be beneficial to you in the future."

What Emma Watson lacks is experience, but he is very smart, so he nodded slightly.

"This is an experience summarized by someone who has experienced it." Matthew said again.

"I went around the Dadabu refugee camp twice." Emma Watson sighed, "I think it's really a waste to throw the resources of the United Nations and the large amount of charity funds from charities on these people."

Matthew asked directly, "Did you see it too?"

Emma Watson responded and said, "If all the donations and resources raised by the United Nations are used for refugees, it will be worth it. Why do I hear so many people saying... I also saw a lot of disputes in the food distribution office, why are there so many Kenyans in the Dadabu refugee camp? It's almost one-third."

She was only nineteen years old and was somewhat excited, "Is Kenya not the country with the most stable and economic development in East Africa?"

Matthew didn't answer for a moment because he knew this before he came.

Emma Watson asked strangely, "Matthew, I can't understand what normal people do when they go to the refugee camp to eat and drink?"

Matthew was silent for a while before saying, "It is better to have free food and drink than to work hard. Even if the conditions are a little worse, you can fill your stomach without working."

"Don't they want to make their lives better and live more dignified?" Emma Watson wasn't asking Matthew.

She didn't need anyone to answer, and said, "We walked along the way and saw a lot of barren farmland, especially the closer we got to the refugee camp, the more we were. I heard from the translator that those people were all scrambling into the refugee camp to eat and drink."

"I heard about it, too." Matthew said.

This is no longer a secret. Before he came, he heard Amanda mention that many refugees in Dadabu refugee camp were actually not refugees at all.

Emma Watson inserted his fingers into his hair, stroking his brown hair behind his head, and said, "I feel very disgusted when I think of the supplies I raised, which will be distributed to these people."

Matthew comforted, "There are many things in this world that are more complicated than you think, don't be angry about such things. Emma, ​​it's not worth it."

Thinking of some supplies distributed today, Emma Watson was indignant. "Someone had told the media before that these people were very lazy. As long as they could have a stuttering life, they would be too lazy to work. I didn't believe it at that time, today..."

"Emma!" Matthew interrupted her, walked over and patted the girl's shoulder gently, "Don't say such things again in the future."

He specifically reminded, "Say it's okay in front of me, don't say similar things in front of others."

"I understand." Emma Watson whispered, "I said it only in front of you."

She looked up at Matthew, raised the corner of her mouth and smiled, "I won't say these words outside."

Matthew nodded, "You are a smart girl."

Emma Watson said distressedly, "But I still can't let it go." She looked at Matthew and asked, "How did you do it."

"Some things will inevitably be wasted on unnecessary people, and I cannot avoid them either." Matthew said slowly, "However, both of my foundations have professional teams here, adhering to the principle of saving urgently and not saving the poor. If you really want to save the poor, you will probably use the wealth of the top 100 rich people in the United States to Africa, and you will not be able to save these people."

What he meant was that the whole of Africa was too big and too messy, how could it be that it could take care of so many people?

But Emma Watson misunderstood and said, "That's right, there are too many people here who are lazy and have too many things to give, so they can only raise a group of rice insects."

She lowered her voice a little, "I heard from the translator that the seeds distributed by the Food Agency of the United Nations were eaten directly by them, and they did not plant them at all, and they were eaten and waited for new ones to be released."

Matthew didn't say much. If he talked too much about these bad things, it would only make people feel worse.

People like this are not only Africa, but actually have them in any country.

Then, he took the initiative to change the topic and talked to Emma Watson about some movie topics, especially "Harry Potter and the Mixed Race Prince", which will be released in the summer this year.

In addition, Emma Watson will also go to North America to study for a university after the summer vacation. Perhaps considering the character of the top student, she chose Brown University, an Ivy League school.

The two chatted until nearly eleven o'clock, and Emma Watson returned to his room. Because of all the talk, Matthew forgot to spray mosquito repellent.

As a result, before he fell asleep after taking a shower, the door of the room was knocked by Emma Watson.

Matthew opened the door, looked at Emma Watson holding a big pillow, and asked, "What's wrong?"

"There are too many mosquitoes." Emma Watson pointed to the red envelope on his forehead. "I can't stay there."

After hearing what she said, Matthew took the initiative to get open the door and said, "Come in."

Emma Watson was not polite either. After coming in, he directly put his big pillow on the only bed, and his body tilted and he lay down.

Matthew closed the door, walked over, and prepared to go to bed.

"You..." Emma Watson turned to look at Matthew, "What are you going to do?"

Matthew sat cross-legged beside her and said, "You snatch my place, I'll charge you."

Emma Watson buried his entire face in his pillow and said in a muffled voice, "I didn't bring any money."
