THIS
2004 CHINA CONCERT TOUR AND TELEVISION
SHOW
-- will show the fabulous greatness of
Ron's ability to put things together, in just one
Summer. He'll again be teaching his 14-year-old
Daughter, Sterling, the P's and Q's of
international trade, and the marketing requirements
needed, to run and operate their family owned
cosmetic business enterprise. He'll be on stage
performing with the HT dancers, and singing a duet
or two with Troy and Sterling. "Country Roads", and
"You Are My Sunshine," are two of Ron's
favorites.
-----Ron Rice (owner/founder of Hawaiian
Tropic) is the perfect example of the "American
Dream". Born near Asheville, NC, Rice grew up in a
"two-story log cabin" on his family owned mountain.
An entrepreneur from the age of five, he sold
everything from homemade Christmas wreaths to
honey, grapes, apples and apple cider at his
roadside stand.Contact: TeleKey International

-----Rice remembers coming home from
football practice each day and spending every spare
minute with his family carrying rocks and mortar to
the peak of their mountain to build their father's
dream house. Sadly, his parents only lived in the
home for one year before the State Transportation
Dept. ordered the house torn down to make room for
Highway 26. Uprooted, Clyde Rice died a year later
at the age of 73. "How hard he worked at his job on
that house - had a lasting impression on me,"
quotes Rice.
-----After graduating from college, Rice
moved first to Myrtle Beach, SC and then to Florida
following the sun, working as a teacher and a
lifeguard. When Rice created Hawaiian Tropic in a
garbage can (right), in his garage, he was earning
$4300 per year as a chemistry teacher/football
coach at a local high school and a summertime
lifeguard. He mixed batches of coconut oil,
bananas, aloe avocados and other exotic ingredients
and hired a crew of three pre-teens to fill bottles
and keep track of the secret recipe. By sampling on
the beach and utilizing lifeguard friends and
fellow teachers to distribute the product, demand
for the product grew throughout the United
States.
-----To increase notoriety and sales, Rice
turned to something else he knew well - sports! We
sponsored everything you could think of. We were in
NASCAR racing for ten years and Paul Newman drove
the winning "Hawaiian Tropic Porsche at the 24
Hours of LeMans, France. We were involved in
hang-gliding, surfing, skydiving, water-skiing,
snow skiing, tennis tournaments and on and on,"
says Rice. The name Hawaiian Tropic grew to
worldwide renown.
-----Next was the development of the Miss
Hawaiian Tropic International Pageant. This annual
search for the most beautiful woman in the world is
now the second largest pageant in the world. Over
1,500 pageants are run in the US alone and pageants
are held in 45 other countries to select the
finalists. Miss Hawaiian Tropic International,
along with other selected finalists and
contestants, travel the globe participating in
major media promotions. The team makes appearances
at such events as charity functions, sportscar
races, concerts, the Cannes Film Festival, music
videos, MTV and in major film productions. They
meet stars like Burt Reynolds on location for
filming, Clint Eastwood at celebrity charity ski
tournaments, and Julio Iglesias at concerts an on
music video productions. The models also travel to
exotic beach locations for the annual Hawaiian
Tropic photo shoot. These photos are used for
television, major fashion magazines worldwide,
billboards and calendars.
-----Today, Hawaiian Tropic is the second
largest suncare manufacturer in the world, with
twelve manufacturing plants on five continents,
grossing over $200 million per year. The garbage
can ( right) used to mix that first batch is
silverplated and stands in Rice's living room as a
reminder of the "early" days and Rice's tireless
effort.
-----Rice is single with daughter Sterling
(left). The Rice's enjoy the "good life," with an
80-foot sailing yacht lovingly named the Princess
Sterling, and a $250,000 Lamborghini that was
loaned to Ron's buddies, Burt and Hal for the movie
"Cannonball Run." Rice's main residence in Daytona
Beach is a $5.5 million palatial estate with four
pools, a recording studio and a disco. In memory of
his Dad, Ron had truck loads of granite brought
down from North Carolina to provide the exterior
for his home. Clyde Rice would have liked
that.

THE
TV SHOW IS A CROSS BETWEEN D-DIARIES, DISCOVERY AND
MAYBE -- THE APPRENTICE
02.
STORY
It all begins
in Shanghai, where Troy, Ron,
Sterling and some of the performers see themselves,
purchasing the compass they'll be using to guide
us up and down China. As the camera pans and
dissolves into the needle pointing due North, it
starts to rapidly spin. The next film cut, images
the TV screen on the wireless telephone blinking
with a film countdown. The next scene pictures Troy
and the performers standing center stage in
Shanghai, 1988, meeting Jiang Zemin.
---- The big band
sound of Ambros Seelos starts playing,“Jeepers
Creepers”, and the show begins. Both the
compass and the Goodwill Concert Map Book 2004,
will guide you to Nine Cities in the Southern
Provinces of the People’s Republic of China.
Concert shoot dates for the first leg of the tour,
begin on JUNE 17th through JUNE 27TH.
---- On the
road again”, unscripted interviews by and
with 14 year old singer, Sterling Rice, and the
shows performers, will tell the realism of
traveling in China.
(Optional
Settings).
Ron Rice and Josie Cory will head the “On the
Road”, 4-person Round-Table Performers Award.
Toni Covington and Troy, will be the deciding vote
of who will be awarded a featured spot during next
show performance.

---- On June
28th, as Troy and his million dollar troupe of
performers continue South towards Guangzhou, the
road to Beijing gets a little hectic for the Brooke
Sisters, Sterling, and the beauties from Hawaiian
Tropic. They realize Beijing is north, the opposite
direction shown on the compass. It’ll take
another 7 performances in 7 Southern Cities, before
they’ll reach their final Northern
destination, the Forbidden City, located in
Beijing. (See http://www.chinaexpo2004.com/).
BEIJING
ARRIVAL
03 MISS CHINA HT PAGEANT
A couple of evenings in Beijing are
topped off with the “Beauty From The
Forbidden City”. This Forbidden City event
features, a mini Miss China, Hawaiian Tropic
International Beauty Pageant. It’ll be a
first. The viewer will experience the beauty of
China’s 20 best models, dressed in Hawaiian
Tropic wear, and its people being entertained by
the music, song and dance from Troy, Sterling, the
California Goodtime Band, and Ron Rice’s
Hawaiian Tropic Performers. (For names of

---- The viewer
of this hour long syndicated Television Program,

on-location filming of the feature film, “WIRELESS”,
directed by one of China’s famous movie
directors. The “HT Beauty From The Forbidden
City” pageant winner, will be announced at
the end of the program.
---- To show
the growth and changes in China, since 1988,
previous footage of China’s top former
presidents and head of State, Deng Xiaoping and
Jiang Zemin, filmed with Troy Cory on stage, will
be incorporated and mixed in with this China 2004
Concert footage. This trip will be fascinating and
enlightening about the way China and Uncle Sam does
business. This China Television Show will be a
first, and a must for Webcasting for years to come.
It’s part of the process, in search of lost
comprehensions and broken dreams. The TV Special
will become a DVD blockbuster
hit.
---- The ‘fountain
of youth”, which Ponce de Leon referred to
many years ago -- does exist, and Troy rediscovered
it many years ago in China. The “joy in
knowing and seeing this for yourself, will keep you
forever young”, says executive producer, Toni
C. Ballard, author of “How To Succeed In
Hollywood.”
It’s a must to produce this
historical TV special with the uttermost care. Once
seen on television, it’ll be around forever
-- on DVD and replay. Troy Cory’s China Expo
2004 Goodwill Tour and “In Search of Lost
Horizons - China 2004” -- will transform you.
