Xiangjiang old events [entertainment circle]

The ultimate beauty is often an existence that people can't help but marvel at.

Although Zhuang Long is already familiar to most people in the Xiangjiang area because of his early movies and publicity activities during this period, the image of the antique shop owner Johnson is still amazing. All audiences who are familiar with him and those who are not.

Compared with his western style in other movies before, the black stand-up collar gown of the antique store owner is a typical retro clothing with Chinese elements, many people of the older generation wear it on traditional festivals or even as daily wear—— But in this movie, his not-so-common black stand-collar gown, against the addition of various factors such as appearance, figure, temperament and lighting, reveals an excellent texture like a memory filter , exceptionally moving.

Next to KiKi, who seemed to be full of youthfulness at the beginning, was instantly overwhelmed by the weight of fine wine that has accumulated over the years, completely losing its previous good looks.

When Er Dongxing was still seizing the opportunity to analyze the composition of this scene, Zhang Wanyu, who was beside him, covered his heart and shouted softly: "I thought Zhuang Long was pretty enough, but I didn't expect him to look very old in this kind of clothes." The earthy long gown is even more handsome than him in a suit..."

Sensing the caring look in the eyes of the person next to him, Zhang Wanyu immediately glared back at him: "It's hard for a big man like you to understand our girls' appreciation for beauty from the bottom of their hearts."

"It's a nympho at the end." Er Dongxing sneered, and then said, "Of course I appreciate beauty—but I'm different from your nympho superficial appreciation. What I see is this The technology and dedication behind the scenes..."

A seemingly unintentional capture like this is already a perfect picture with every pixel. In the real situation, I don’t know how many times I tried to get the effect.

A young girl with a simple mind like Zhang Wanyu will only make a fuss like an ordinary person and exclaim that the beauty in front of the scene is moving, but she doesn't understand the painstaking efforts behind the scene.

Once the scene that caught the audience's attention with the ultimate beauty was over, it returned to KiKi's side.

Along the way, I took a feather duster to dust the items in the cabinet, and a color photo placed on the top of the locker by the wall came into the eyes of the audience: it was a headshot of a very young girl, who looked about At the age of sixteen or seventeen, he smiled shyly at the camera in front of him, looking very gentle and charming.

"This is Mr. Johnson's younger sister. She is of mixed race. Occasionally, Mr. Johnson would be very happy to call her NiNi." KiKi stood in front of the locker and quietly admired the photo for a while, with a complicated expression on her face Smiling, "She... is really cute."

"And...it matches my name, doesn't it?" These words are expressed in voice-over to express KiKi's heartfelt feelings at the moment, and many audiences with love brains who want to make a CP when they see someone smile knowingly. .

"I recognize the girl in the photo!" Zhang Wanyu looked carefully for a while, and said pleasantly, "This is the little girl who played Mary's best friend in "Pounding Heart", she seems to be called Sophie!"

"Sophie Marceau." Er Dongxing sighed and added, "She is one of the newcomers in the French film industry in the past two years. The supporting actress performed well, she received attention and made the family pay attention to this, so she gradually embarked on the road of acting."

"Then I guess, her character should be a couple with KiKi's character." Obviously, Zhang Wanyu is also a member of the love brain audience.

The movie has long announced that the characters of Su Yun and Zhuang Long are a pair, so the KiKi played by Keanu should also have a corresponding CP.

It happened that Sophie had collaborated with him in "Pounding Heartbeat" before. Although the two had no intersection in "Pounding Heartbeat", Su Yun specially invited Sophie back. It was impossible for her to be just a passerby supporting role.

In particular, Sophie and Keanu both have a western face that favors oriental aesthetics. It is a rare western-style appearance that can make most oriental people feel beautiful... If you think about it like this, these two people are a perfect match Incredibly, the more you look at it, the more you look like a husband and wife!

When Zhang Wanyu was still praising the speculation in her heart, the calm style of the movie began to change.

A grandma holding a cloth bundle pushed the door in. She wanted to sell one of her heirloom paintings, and expressed eagerly that her little grandson, whose parents died unexpectedly, was in a car accident in the morning. Lying in the hospital, waiting for the money to sell paintings to save his life.

"Grandma, don't be in a hurry, I have to look at the goods first." Johnson said calmly, and then he stretched out his hand to open the bag: his antique shop in Chinatown, New York, would have some urgent money from time to time Compatriots come here to sell the ancestral items left by their ancestors.

As we all know, the time of urgent sale is often the time when the price is the lowest. If it is not desperate, most people would rather borrow than sell ancestral items at a low price.

This time is often a good time for people like them to pick up the leaks, but the world is dangerous and people are not old, and there will be some scammers, pretending to be poor and need money urgently, and cheating money with fakes.

With the mentality of knowing the dragon and the phoenix at a glance, Zhuang Chen got ready and slowly opened the ancient painting.

On the dark yellow painting paper, a dark dragon looms in the tumbling sea of ​​clouds with its horns and claws, and a beautiful woman in a colorful dress flutters as if she is about to ride the wind, but the tone of the whole painting is faintly haunting. This kind of expectation and hope, as if the departure of this beautiful "goddess" will not only make people feel sad, but will make people extremely happy.

The most peculiar thing is that the ordinary ancient paintings with beauties, no matter what style of beauties they are, are designed to make the viewer feel that the beauties in the paintings are peerless; The depiction style of beauties is not to show women's innate beauty, such as delicate and gentle, dignified and elegant, or graceful, but with a kind of respect that the painter has for the beauties in the painting.

Yes, a "homage" never seen before.

Even if it is painted for a noble woman with a noble status, there will not be a sense of awe from the heart that appears in the ancient paintings of beauties.

It seems that this is not a picture depicting a beauty, but a sacrificial ceremony of an unknown sect.

There is a line of small dark red seal characters printed on the lower right of the screen. Because the painting is so well preserved, it didn't take much effort for Johnson to recognize it, and it was converted with just a few eyes: Goddess Flying to the Sky.

But even if the beauty depicted in the painting is a goddess in the sky, it should not appear that it is clearly a figure painting but has no sense of covetousness at all. The ancient painters who could make such excellent works, whether they painted for themselves or Paintings for superiors always have a taste of men appreciating the beauty of women.

"This painting is so beautiful..." Compared with Johnson, who can see the problems in ancient paintings at a glance, KiKi's performance is a typical layman who can't help being amazed when he encounters a work of art that suits the public's aesthetics.

"I heard from my grandfather that this is an antique from the period of Qin Shihuang. It is very valuable. When the whole family came here by boat and failed to do business, he was reluctant to sell it..." Grandma Yang Gao who heard KiKi's praise Chin, babbling over and over again that the painting is very precious, and after a while, Johnson, who was full of doubts after seeing the painting, slowly raised his head.

Then, he showed a controllable smile: "Grandma, wise people don't swear, I can only give you this number for this painting."

He compared two fingers.

"20?!" Granny's eyes lit up.

"You think too much, it's [-]." Johnson's smile grew bigger and bigger, "Your remarks are completely unreasonable. Obviously, this is a beautifully crafted fake. It is I who gave you this number. The author of this painting is very interested in preferential treatment."

"Impossible, my paintings are real! You don't know the goods, I'll go to another house!" Grandma immediately broke out.

"You can do whatever you want, but I can assure you that the people in the related shops in the nearby streets are not vegetarians, and the number they give you will definitely not be higher than mine." Johnson waved his hand generously, "KiKi, see off. "

After Grandma left holding the painting cursingly, KiKi looked at Johnson with some doubts: "Boss?"

Johnson's micro-expressions have always been difficult to detect, but he has worked in the store for a while, and it is not difficult to find the subtle changes in Johnson's eyes when he sees the whole picture of the ancient painting: usually this phenomenon can occur in him Yes, they have to be very precious antiques.

"That painting is indeed an antique, but it is very problematic." An extremely contradictory question that does not conform to history and time.

On the surface, no matter how it is inspected, it must be what a real Qin Dynasty antique should be; but after careful inspection based on his experience, this texture is a trace of history that does not exceed a hundred years-the only one that can be slightly traced at present. The speculation to explain this contradiction is an antique forgery made by a reclusive master during the period of the Republic of China and the Anti-Japanese War.

It is reasonable to say that the price of this quality can be higher, but the essence of the fake is too slow, and he will pay [-] US dollars because of the strangeness of this painting.

As Johnson expected, soon, Grandma came back holding the painting with an aggrieved expression on her face: "[-], can you still buy it?"

It is very unfounded: Anyone who knows a little bit about the rules and unspoken rules knows that once the previous price goes out, the price will only be lowered again when they come back.

In the end, Johnson bought this strange ancient painting for [-] yuan.

The mystery of ancient paintings lingers in the following daily plots. Johnson’s younger sister NiNi suddenly visits, saying that she specially took advantage of the summer vacation to go camping with her classmates, and quietly came to meet her brother: the two brothers and sisters are of the same father Half-mother, NiNi was born to the Caucasian wife that Johnson's Huaxia father married five years after his mother died in childbirth.

However, because their fathers died unexpectedly during a trip, NiNi was taken away by the stepmother to raise him. Later, the stepmother remarried, so NiNi was sent to live with his grandparents.

Occasionally, NiNi would go to live with her remarried mother for a few days, but because her mother was disliked by the elders of the Huaxia family for being non-Chinese, NiNi was banned by the mother who hated Wu Jiwu from associating with the brother Johnson. There is only one photo and one letter sent every year, as the only connection between the two brothers and sisters.

In this episode, KiKi will always get close to NiNi, asking questions as if she is very interested in her, which makes the audience smile even more: the uncle dares to tease his sister when he is still around , Fortunately, free-spirited foreigners do not understand this unspoken rule.

Just when everyone was expecting the pair of young people with somewhat similar names to have a mutual affection first, one night, a group of men in black rushed into an antique shop and tied up the man who heard the noise and came out to check the situation in the chaos. NiNi.

Seeing that his sister was tied up by this group of people who didn't know their intentions but had obvious malicious intentions, Johnson immediately stood up and agreed to their request: "Okay, I'll go with you, you must not hurt my sister!"

"Then what about this kid?" one of the men in black asked the other.

"He's just a summer job guy, he has nothing to do with the store, and you've seen what he did just now..." Johnson looked back at KiKi with disgust, obviously because he was not only cowardly and afraid of death He was extremely dissatisfied with the performance of using his sister as a shield, "You have been fired, and don't expect me to pay you during this time, get out!"

KiKi watched Johnson slowly walking towards the back of the man in black with aggrieved but worried eyes, and finally couldn't help shouting out on impulse: "Don't go over—she is a fake with ulterior motives. She is your 'sister'!"
