Chapter 420 "Yongle Ceremony"

After appearing on the set of "Suicide Squad", I soon felt bored.

Suri couldn't help much, so he simply took a car to downtown Las Vegas, planning to find a casino to sit there for a while.

He just came to Las Vegas some time ago, and by chance, he signed Oscar winner Nicolas Cage.

The contract between the two parties stipulates that it does not matter whether he acts in 4 movies or a TV series. In order to maximize profits, the script of the "Hunger Games" series of movies has begun to be written.

With Nicolas Cage's acting skills and box office appeal, I believe that as long as he encounters a good script and perfectly presents the story, he can easily earn back the US$2000 million he spent previously.

In order to allow the film to enter the mainland market, Suri also reminded the screenwriter to be a little more restrained and add content such as treasure hunting and life-and-death games to make it more interesting and avoid making a boring live-action version of "PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds."

On the way to the Venetian Hotel, we passed by a square.

While waiting at a red light.

He happened to see an oversized poster, launching a song and dance show under the banner of "Tribute to Michael Jackson". There was also a line that read - "Super-realistic virtual digital technology! Reproduce MJ's peak moments!" "

Seeing this advertisement, Suri couldn't help but smack her lips.

Thinking that there is no peace after death, and they are made into virtual special effects to continue to make money. If Michael Jackson knows about it, he doesn't know whether to feel relieved, or to be so angry that he wants to lift the coffin board and come to strangle these profiteers. .

If you think about it in another’s shoes.

Suri was unhappy at first, and then felt that the person was gone, so what else was there to care about?

Just like many ancient people who only pursue a name in history, it is better to leave something behind than to be completely forgotten soon.

Countless wealthy people in the United States have long disappeared from history, but the buildings and museums of the Rockefeller family, as well as the Getty Art Center of former world's richest man Paul Getty, etc., have always reminded future generations, proving that they were once glorious.

When I thought of this, I felt a little flustered for no reason.

Suri was thinking about not only his songs and some film and television works, but also what traces he would leave in the long history of human civilization if he disappeared.

Then I thought of shooting some film and television works myself, and when I have spare money, I can invest in building some interesting landmark buildings. Maybe hundreds or thousands of years later they will become "relics built in the 21st century" and people can buy tickets to visit them.

Seeing Suri looking out the window in a daze, secretary Amanda handed him the tablet and asked:
"Sotheby's auction house sent you an email. It will hold a summer auction in New York in August. Do you have anything you like?"

Take the tablet.

The file has been downloaded. In addition to some PPT pictures of important auction items, there is also a long text table of contents.

Objects that can sell for high prices are nothing more than jewelry, oil paintings, domestic porcelain, calligraphy and paintings, etc. Many of the auction items can only be regarded as passable and have low collection value.

His fingers suddenly stopped, and Su Rui was surprised to find that this auction actually included three volumes of "Yongle Dadian".

I had heard about "Yongle Dadian" for a long time, and maybe I was ignorant, but this was the first time I heard that it was on sale at the auction house. I immediately said to Secretary Amanda: "Help me ask the auction house and buy it from the collector in advance. How much will these three books cost?”

After turning around to finish reading, Secretary Amanda smiled and said:

"I rarely see you reading, but you are actually interested in collecting ancient books? I have a collection of Mark Twain's novels at home, which is hundreds of years old."

"...It's not the same thing at all. Well, even if you tell me, you don't understand. Back then...the king found someone to collect countless ancient documents from my motherland and write them into these books. It was probably like the Dafa purchased by Bill Gates. Finch's manuscript has a longer history than the United States." There is nothing much to say about "Yongle Dadian". There are only a few surviving copies, and most of them are collected by various museums, so it is difficult to find them on the market.

As an American.

Secretary Amanda had no temper at all about Su Ruixiu's behavior and admitted frankly:

"Even the oak tree behind my house has a longer history than the United States. Obviously there is no need to compare. It is because the United States lacks ancient cultural relics and can only hype some strange works of art, such as Pollock's oil paintings and Jeff Koons’ stainless steel sculptures.”

Suri nodded and added:
"Some auction results are simply incomprehensible and can only be considered as money laundering. It seems that in 2006, the works of several American painters set records and were more expensive than Van Gogh's oil paintings."

……

Come to the Venetian Casino.

After playing cards all afternoon, I only lost tens of thousands of dollars.

Before leaving, Suri found a gambling table to play blackjack, and with a final bold move, he put all the remaining chips of about 21 on the table. With 42 points, he won the banker's blow, and successfully turned a loss into a profit. Earned $18.

Such a small amount of money was not even a drop in the bucket to him. The casino manager politely cashed the check and gave him several luxurious business rooms, plus free drinks.

For casinos, they are not afraid that guests will win money, but they are afraid that if they win, they will stop coming to play.

With Suri's influence, just a few occasional visits to the Venetian Casino can help improve the quality of their hotel, which is much more important than small wins and losses.

After driving for a long time, I played cards for a long time.

Suri happened to be tired and was not in a hurry to leave for Lanai Island for vacation. He simply went back to the room to rest for a while, then called Barbara Palvin and had dinner together in a private room of the Japanese restaurant.

After Barbara Palvin was "kidnapped" in the movie, her next scene would have to wait a month or two. She just had nothing to do recently and actually wanted to accompany her on a trip to Lanai.

There are many people on Lanai, and the summer tourist season has gradually entered.

If she were brought back to the island, she might be discovered the next day and the news would spread.

Last time, I thought I had flowers that I had to cut off, but if I put the location in the United States, I would easily get into trouble. Many laws are very strange. As long as the two conditions of "parental consent" and "judge approval" are met at the same time, in many places even Child marriage is allowed, but nothing else is prohibited.

So Suri compromised and proposed to go to Italy for vacation instead, which completely avoided the legal risks.

Barbara didn't think much of it.

She is indeed obsessed with Suri and wants to have a strong thigh.

For example, in the role of "daughter" in "The Expendables", Stallone originally wanted his eldest daughter to play the role. If Suri had not said that he would help find another opportunity, it would be difficult for her to take her turn.

Having been in the modeling and film and television circles for several years, this girl knows very well who can help her. She is mentally older than many of her peers. Since she is looking for a boyfriend, of course she wants to choose the best one.

Before the two set off, they each had their own thoughts.

Barbara was a little troubled, and her mind was full of thoughts about what she should do to successfully capture Suri during the trip... (End of this chapter)
