Mermaid Actor [Rebirth]

***********

Brandon lay on the bed, closed his eyes and fell asleep, the voices echoing in his ears seemed to be entangled repeatedly in time and space.

"Bran, do you know who the mysterious employer who hired you is?"

"It's a painting, it's "Lover"!"

"It just so happens that I have this news in my hand, do I want to tell you, but don't try to get the information without spending a penny, I know that your mysterious employer generously paid you 300 million pounds in advance, and lied to me saying no Money doesn't work."

"That's right, the "Lover" auctioned by sotheby.s is a fake."

"Well, I recently fell in love with a set of enamel jewelry from Bulgari, please give it to me."

"The box is mine, and the painting is also mine. No one knows this better than me!"

"Okay, okay, for the sake of your credit, I will tell you with difficulty, the name of that mysterious employer is..."

"Your employer must know the whole story. He knows that the "Lover" auctioned by the auction house is not genuine, so he asked you to steal the useless wooden box."

"Fisher, Fisher Kolovo, you must be familiar with it, Bran."

"And the back of the wooden oil painting sealed in the box is inlaid with pigeon blood rubies. If it is all peeled off, the estimated value is at least one billion. In addition to the value of "Lover" itself, if the news of this wooden box is leaked, the world Everyone will go crazy."

Brandon snapped his eyes open, the veins on his forehead twitching.He is now trying to digest these two news that are too shocking for him.

The "Lover" on sotheby.s is actually a fake, but not only scholars and art experts failed to distinguish it, but even all the high-tech inspection equipment was deceived. This method of counterfeiting is not only advanced, it is simply Just like terrorists.The origin of Valentino made Brandon even more puzzled. This cosplay lover wearing ancient aristocratic costumes categorically revealed the truth. Who is he?

What made Brandon even more furious was the news Sophia provided him. He never expected that the rich and mysterious employer was actually a damn bastard named Fisher Korowo.Brandon's best friend, Byron Yeve, was once a skilled art thief. He was shot dead viciously after raiding a famous painting handed down for Kolovo.At the beginning, Brandon tried to dissuade Byron from accepting the order. After all, the villain Korovo had a terrible reputation.But Byron insisted, because the price offered by Kolovo was too attractive.As for Byron, he already had the intention of retiring from the industry after making a big deal, and following his country girlfriend back to his hometown to get married and have children. Kolovo has obviously seen through Byron's desire.Brandon thought that Korowo's reputation would be bad, and he would not commit murder and robbing goods. Unexpectedly, when he returned from Morocco, he received the news of Byron's death.

Brandon and Byron are like brothers, and even stepped into this gray industry together, which can be described as life-and-death friends.Byron's death was definitely not an accidental car accident as the public said.Brandon made a secret investigation and found that it was the black hand under Kolovo.Brandon wanted to avenge Byron several times, but he couldn't find a chance.Kolovo is like an old turtle, always curled up in his shell.

But now, this old guy came to the door automatically. Brandon didn't believe that he was giving him money with good intentions. Maybe when he happily took the box to exchange for the follow-up payment, his life would be caught. up.

Brandon sneered, his hands clenched into fists, his eyes flushed.He jumped up from the bed, took out a flat and long iron-gray safe from the wardrobe splint, and walked slowly towards the living room.

In the living room, Valentino was still worrying about the pain in his shoulder, and he didn't look good when he saw Brandon come out.When his eyes fell on the safe in Brandon's hand, he was a little dazed.

Brandon opened the safe, revealing the entire top of the wooden box inside, and Valentino poked his head out immediately, his eyes widened.

Valentino glanced at Brandon in disbelief, "You, have you changed your mind?"

"Don't think too much, although for some reason I don't want to give this thing to my employer, but I won't give you the box if I haven't figured out the ins and outs of the matter in a short time."

Valentino immediately sat back on the sofa in disappointment, with sad eyes floating around Brandon sporadically.Brandon clattered the safe.

"What's going on, it's about "Lover"."

Valentino caught his grip, unwilling to look at Brandon, and finally lost.

"Leonardo Di Ser Piero Da Vinci, he is actually a very weird guy." Valentino pursed his lips: "He was working for the Duke of Florence when he created "The Lover". It is well known that many nobles and squires are willing to ask him to paint portraits for their living family members. The lady painted in "The Lover" is the mistress of the Duke of Florence at that time, Mrs. Melando, but Da Vinci did not finish the painting. In the middle of it, I got inspired and ran to draw another wood panel painting, so the other half of "Lover" was completed by Da Vinci's assistant and apprentice. The apprentice has been taught by Da Vinci for many years, and his painting style is very similar to him. And because Da Vinci guided the whole process of painting, after the painting was completed, no one could see that the painting was not completely made by Da Vinci. Sotheby.s.'s "Lover" is based on your modern technology It is impossible to judge the authenticity, not to mention that half of this painting is indeed his handwriting."

As Valentino said, he paused and glanced at the safe, "Then, as you should have guessed, what was sealed in the wooden box was another painting of "The Lover" painted by Leonardo da Vinci at that time."

Brandon patted the box, his eyes were subtle and pointed, how could Valentino not know what he was thinking.

"You know why that mysterious employer will let you steal the box without worrying that you will run away with this thing at all."

Valentino fixedly looked at Brandon with a complicated expression.Brandon didn't answer right away, but his face turned serious.

"Da Vinci not only has an impressive talent in painting, but also has a trendy concept that transcends the times in machinery and medicine. The painting is sealed in a wooden box by himself, and this wooden box is not an ordinary wooden box. , if you want to open it, you must have a key. Without the key, even God cannot safely take the painting out of the wooden box."

There was deep helplessness and remorse in Valentino's tone.

"The key was kept with me, but I accidentally lost it. Since your employer paid you a huge commission to steal this wooden box, he must have the key, or a way to get it. Now, whether it is you, or It is impossible for me to forcibly break into the box without the key."

Brandon's eyes were dim, and he stood up suddenly, with a strong momentum.

"No, I don't need the key. I want Fisher Kolowo's life!"

Valentino raised his head blankly to look at Brandon, feeling a very subtle feeling in his heart for some reason.

************

At this point in the filming of "Da Vinci's "Lover", Luo Yu finally joined the crew.Everyone knows that Luo Yu and Lin Chuxi have a somewhat unclear relationship. Although it may not be a relationship under the bed, Luo Yu is definitely on Lin Chuxi's side, so the whole crew is relatively friendly to this strange oriental man. .It’s just that Luo Yu has the common problem of Chinese people, he becomes dumb when he goes abroad, and he is afraid that his grammatical mistakes or words will not attract jokes when others talk to him, so he can only smile shyly.He was accompanied by an interpreter, but Du Meige did not come with him.

On the night Luo Yu came, he bleeds and invites the whole crew to dinner, which simply implements the concept of Chinese people, no matter whether they know each other or not, they should have a meal first to please them.Luo Yu was quite generous, and everyone ate happily. Those who were cooked and drunk had already stopped Luo Yu from spouting alcohol and making pornographic jokes.

Luo Yu has always been very disciplined in the crew, because the lines need to be read in English, so when he has no part to play, he can often be seen sitting on the side of the set and memorizing the script, and the little brother with him is always correcting his pronunciation .

Luo Yu respected Lin Chuxi very much, even a little in awe.Although Lin Chuxi was younger than him, she was the real big boss.How dare he make a mistake, Lin Chuxi felt a little flattered to chat with him after the show.But more, but also thanks.Luo Yu knew that without Lin Chuxi, he would never have the chance to appear here.And his growing popularity in China is mostly due to Lin Chuxi's "blitzkrieg".Lin Chuxi was not only his nobleman, but also his benefactor.

However, he always thought that Lin Chuxi had that kind of noble, glamorous, arrogant and unattainable character in real life, and those weird tossings in Beijing back then made him suffer a lot.However, Luo Yu felt that Lin Chuxi should be like this, he should be domineering, domineering and self-willed.However, the truth will always make people burst into tears and break the glass heart.

"Bastard, step back, you have entered the range of the boss's skills, and start reading! Rewind." Lin Chuxi's wild voice came from the open door of Eugene's lounge.

"Huh, it's so dangerous, so dangerous, I almost got caught. Fortunately, Gavin reminded me quickly."

"I won't remind you next time, you lie under the boss's feet and get into your crotch!"

"I was wrong, I was wrong leader, I must fight hard."

"Nimma, you can't be serious, I really want to strangle you."

"I must fight seriously!...Ah! How did I die?"

"...Stupid."

Half an hour later————

"Gavin, I saw my big enemy outside the dungeon. This despicable guy actually attacked me in the last city battle and cut me off."

"Cut it back."

"But... I can't beat..."

"..."

Luo Yu looked at the sky, calmed down the urge to cry up to the sky, and looked down at the script.I read the script, I read the script, I can't hear, I can't hear...

He is not bad in this film, not only has several shots, although there are not many lines, but it is good enough for foreign actors who are new to Hollywood.He plays the technology house warrior, who helps the hero Braden hide the wooden box, introduces craftsmen to Brandon to let him forge a new box, and is responsible for the hero Braden when he escapes from Fisher Colovo when he is injured. Meet Braden.

The noise coming from Eugene's lounge suddenly stopped, and Luo Yu knew that it was Lin Chuxi who was called to put on makeup, and the next shoot would start soon.

From all aspects, Luo Yu actually admires Lin Chuxi very much. Indeed, it has been more than half a year since Lin Chuxi debuted. She is the Best Newcomer in Venice, the Best Actor nominee for the Golden Globe Award, and the best actor for the Academy Award. Nominated for Best Actor, Virgo has a box office of 8000 million, and the subsequent "Journeyman" is even more majestic and proudly ascended to the throne of the most gold-absorbing blockbuster of the year. It is so beautiful that everyone only cares about him.But these three awards mean that what Lin Chuxi has is not just luck.

Luo Yu once also thought that Lin Chuxi took advantage of the famous director and actor's supporting role, and after joining the crew to work together, he realized that Lin Chuxi's efforts were no less than others.The director never complained because of a few glances, and a detail was NG more than a dozen times, and he cooperated very well.He will not be late or leave early, except for playing crazy games with Eugene, he spends more time in his room watching old movies.What moves Luo Yu the most is that he can always quickly adjust himself to the position of the role, not how I want to play, but how to deal with this detail when thinking about this role.Lin Chuxi is really suitable to be an actor.

Sometimes Luo Yu somehow feels that Lin Chuxi is not like a person, and he always feels that it is not real.

Luo Yu shook his head, watching Lin Chuxi and Eugene walking towards the shooting location in the distance.

********************

The bustling city center is now in chaos. A long chain of chasing cars is like a steel wrecking snake, rampaging on the road, and gunshots can be heard from these cars from time to time.

Brandon was extremely cunning, and he had already died before going to the exchange place, and then reported the case to the police station.

Fisher Kolowo really wanted to kill him, and he really had the key. If it wasn't for the weird power in Valentino, they would never have been able to snatch the key from the old traitor Kolowo in the air and kill him all over his body. Retreat, and by the way Kolovo is approaching the police encirclement.

But Brandon still underestimated Korovo's strength, they were able to chase them while dragging the police to chase and intercept them.Three-party battle, so happy.

"Don't worry, we can definitely get rid of them."

"Ah."

Valentino held the key tightly with both hands, but the worried expression on his face did not ease down.He turned his head slightly, and out of the corner of his eye, he noticed the black Chevrolet trailing behind the car, which he couldn't shake off no matter how hard he tried.

"Can't let them get the painting, Brandon."

"Do you need to say that, I want Kolovo to go to hell."

Brandon's eyes turned hard, and he turned the steering wheel wildly. The Golden Snake swung its tail around an approaching car at high speed. Valentino couldn't sit still, and he was thrown against the window glass.

"This painting means a lot to me, Brandon."

"I said you can't be quiet, I gave you the keys, do I still plan to take it for myself? You just shut up, or I will kick you out of the car."

With red eyes, Valentino glared at Brandon angrily, but then shrank his shoulders aggrievedly, not wanting to talk to Brandon anymore.Seeing him like this, Brandon opened his mouth, but didn't say any words of comfort in the end.It's really troublesome, this young master can cry even with a slightly emphatic tone, why didn't he become a girl?

At this time, a few black Chevrolets suddenly rushed out from the corner ahead and shot at them. Brandon resolutely gave up the steering wheel and held Valentino's head and ducked down together. The car lost control and slammed into a street light pole beside the road. On the way, Brandon let out a muffled snort, and countless broken glass rushed into the car, half of Brandon's cheek was covered with blood.He kicked the car door, dragged Valentino, who was already frightened, and ran towards the narrow alley, while opening the tracker prepared on his body, and notified Wu to prepare a helicopter to pick him up.

Valentino was pulled away and staggered, and he saw bright red blood spread from Brandon's side.

"Boo, Brandon...you're hurt."

"Shut up, save your strength and run!"

Brandon didn't dare to look back at all, he had already heard countless footsteps getting closer behind him.The pain in his waist was so painful that he had already lost consciousness, and it was already the limit for him to hold Valentino.But no, he can't fall down yet.Brandon bit the tip of his tongue hard, and his head cleared up.He dragged Valentino into an old abandoned building and stumbled towards the top floor.

"Brandon..." Seeing that the blood on Brandon's clothes was getting thicker and thicker, Valentino's voice trembled.

"Everyone said shut up!"

It was not easy to walk up to the rooftop. Fortunately, they hadn't carried their backs to the extreme, and the rooftop was not completely covered.Brandon and Valentino climb into a large abandoned tin box.Valentino panicked and reached out to cover Brandon's wound, but Brandon groaned in pain.He was so panicked that he hurriedly tore off the silk scarf around his neck and wrapped it around Brandon's waist.

"What to do, what to do, Brandon, the bleeding won't stop."

"...Never mind." Brandon said weakly.

"But you're going to die, you're going to die, Brandon!" Valentino's eyes were red, and he almost shed tears: "Stop the bleeding, you're going to die."

Brandon was really annoyed by him, he fixed Valentino's head with both hands, moved closer and said in an extremely hoarse voice: "Listen, I won't die, you won't die, we won't die .Trust me, I will take you back, and I will return the painting to you."

Valentino nodded slightly, and in the blink of an eye, a string of tears fell down.He wrenched his head free from Brandon's grip, blood from the palm of Brandon's palm was on both cheeks.

The sound of the iron door being kicked open came from the roof, and Brandon covered Valentino's mouth, and the two of them huddled in the box and could only breathe carefully.Someone began to check the abandoned iron boxes on the roof one by one, until the rumbling sound of the helicopter came over, and then the heroic red-haired woman standing on the helicopter, holding a cigarette and holding a rifle, wiped out all the opponents on the roof.

Valentino helped Brandon out of the class, and the red-haired woman Sophia gloated at Brandon's half-dead appearance.

The helicopter quickly carried the two of them back to the safe place where the box was hidden. Wu and Sophia wanted to divert the police and Kolovo's group away, and left in a hurry without stopping.After returning home, Brandon had no strength, so he could only ask Valentino to find out the first aid kit to help him take emergency measures.Valentino was clumsy, as if it was the first time he had touched such a thing, and Brandon grinned in pain, almost knocking Valentino's head off.

"Brandon, do you want to draw?"

"Didn't you say that the painting is yours?"

"If, I mean if, if I give you the painting, will you accept it?"

"Send as much as you like." Brandon replied impatiently.

Valentino couldn't tell whether he was happy or unhappy when he heard this, and he helped Brandon into the bedroom to rest.

"Well, goodbye, Brandon."

"Where are you going? Don't run around. If you want to go out, at least change your clothes."

"Ah."

Brandon didn't think too much, he was too tired and soon fell asleep.When he woke up in a daze, he pressed his waist and walked out the door slowly, but he didn't see Valentino who was supposed to be sitting on the sofa in a daze.

"Valentino, Valentino? Young master?"

Brandon shouted hoarsely, but no one responded.Then, as if he suddenly thought of something, enduring the pain in his waist and abdomen, he hurriedly climbed up to the attic.The wooden box is hidden here.As soon as he went up, he saw the wooden box that was supposed to be hidden in the dark standing brightly in the center of the attic floor, and the lid had been removed an inch.

Brandon's mood at the moment can't be said to be disappointment or loss, he just feels angry, that kid actually took the painting and left without saying hello, thanks to him protecting him so much before.Brandon walked to the side of the wooden box and looked down, only to find that there was still something in the wooden box.Surprised, he quickly removed the cover, and a 70cmx50cm oil painting on wood lay quietly in a pile of buffer grass.

Brandon felt his fingertips get cold, and his body was breaking out in a cold sweat.With trembling fingers, he grasped the frame of the wooden board and turned it over to the back. Hundreds of pigeon blood rubies were smoothed and spliced ​​into a budding red rose.On the blank space in the lower right corner of the back, Brandon noticed that there was a small string of engraved words in Italian, which Brandon recognized, was a person's name.

Valentino de' Medici.

This "Lover", which Leonardo da Vinci would rather offend the Duke of Florence to complete by himself, depicts a young nobleman wearing a black knee-length velvet coat with a stand-up collar, a gold embroidered waistcoat and white silk inside A shirt and a white silk scarf were ambiguously wrapped around his slender neck, and clusters of flowers were piled up on the neckline. The black riding boots on his feet perfectly presented the beautiful curve of the entire calf.He was sleeping on the lawn in the garden, a rose petal fell on his dark green hair, the flowers were blooming nearby, the sky was bright in the distance, the flowers were perishable, the sky was easy to throw away, only the youth was lingering forever.
