Chapter 547: 480 Vera

Monica Bellucci.

Hearing this name, Pei Yunxi calmed down and stopped teasing or ridiculing.

For this Italian actress, there was simply no need for lavish praise.

The term "beauty of the world" was enough to explain everything.

During that era when all kinds of talents emerged, she conquered global aesthetics with overwhelming momentum.

Everyone will grow old.

But her name is destined to be etched into the long scroll of history, never to fade.

"If I ever get the chance, I really would like to meet her."

Jiang Chen said, feeling moved.

"Her daughter must be about the same age as you," Pei Yunxi commented in a light but pointed tone.

Jiang Chen sighed, lamenting in a literary fashion, "You were born before I was, and by the time I was born, you had already aged."

Pei Yunxi acted as if she heard nothing.

Humans are not grass or trees.

Everyone has emotions and desires.

If she were to say she had no thoughts about Monica Bellucci, that would be hypocritical.

She believed there was no man who could resist Monica Bellucci; probably even the eunuchs would not be able to.

"You’ll have the chance if you invest in a ’Malèna 2,’" Pei Yunxi suggested. "Maybe you could lure her out of retirement."

Jiang Chen smiled differently, "Have you seen ’Malèna’?"

Pei Yunxi was noncommittal, taking a glass of champagne from a passing waiter in tails.

"If men can watch it, why can’t I?"

"Miss Pei Yunxi, you’re not so pure," Jiang Chen teased.

Speaking of Monica Bellucci, one simply couldn’t bypass ’Malèna.’

That film had become an unforgettable classic in the hearts of many, a pearl in the history of cinema, catapulting Monica Bellucci onto a pedestal.

Back then,

Jiang Chen, together with Tie Jun and Fu Zili, had secretly watched the forbidden disc from Fu Zili’s father’s collection when the adults were away playing cards.

Several naive boys watched with flushed faces and racing hearts, experiencing for the first time what female charm was all about.

Regrettably,

now they needed resources if they wanted to revisit it.

"Who exactly is the impure one? As a masterpiece in film history, I was merely studying it," Pei Yunxi retorted.

Jiang Chen almost laughed out loud, nodding, "Admirable, truly committed."

"I would like to invite Nicole to play a cameo role."

Thomas Felton came back, "I just had a chat with her, and she seems very interested. The role isn’t big, it won’t overshadow the female lead."

Jiang Chen, of course, had no objections and teased, "Feeling any pressure?"

Pei Yunxi sipped her champagne, "Miss Nicole is an Oscar-winning actress. If she participates, it’ll be a great learning opportunity for me."

Thomas Felton looked on with appreciation, saying, "Let’s go meet the male lead."

"Adrian."

When the man turned around, Jiang Chen recognized a face that looked familiar, but he couldn’t recall the name.

"Director Felton."

The elegantly poised man with an inherent sense of melancholy stopped his conversation with a friend.

"This is our benefactor, Jiang. And this lady here is our leading actress, Miss Pei Yunxi, acclaimed as the Eastern Venus."

As they became acquainted, Thomas Felton’s demeanor ceased to be so formal.

"Mr. Adrian, I look forward to your guidance in the days to come."

Pei Yunxi took the initiative to extend her hand, presumably because she should recognize him.

Adrian was very gentlemanly, making brief contact before letting go.

Thomas Felton continued the introductions with a smile, "Jiang, this is Adrian Brody, the youngest Oscar-winning actor in film history."

A $300 million US Dollar investment was certainly not spared.

Jiang Chen finally remembered who the male actor before him was.

"Mr. Adrian, ’The Pianist’ is one of the finest films I’ve ever seen."

Like ’Malèna,’ ’The Pianist’ is also a war-themed film, albeit from a different perspective, but that didn’t prevent them from becoming great movies.

It was precisely for ’The Pianist’ that Adrian Brody won the Oscar for Best Actor and became the youngest to do so in history.

All these award-winning actors have one thing in common: when they act, they make the audience remember only the character and forget the actor themself.

This is the so-called ’a thousand faces for a thousand roles’—each character portrayed provides a new visage.

Jiang Chen couldn’t recall who he was earlier precisely for this reason.

As an Oscar-winning actor with numerous films to his name, Adrian’s portrayal in the global hit series ’Peaky Blinders’ earned him the title of the most elegant villain in history.

This actor did indeed have an air of melancholic nobility about him.

"I believe that this one will become the second," Jiang concluded.

Westerners certainly have a knack for humor.

The two shook hands amicably.

With the male and female leads meeting for the first time, naturally, there were things to discuss. As an investor, Jiang Chen courteous enough to not linger and interrupt, he excused himself and found a quiet spot to sit. Holding his champagne, sampling sweets, he leisurely took in the opulence of the global fashion and film industry’s elite.

"One pair."

"Two pairs."

Jiang Chen counted silently to himself.

He had already noticed quite a few couples sneaking into the villa with a certain air of intimacy and not coming out for a while.

As for what they were doing, that was up to interpretation.

This is the way it is in the West: if two people click at a party, a fleeting romance is only too common.

Shortly after,

Jiang Chen saw another couple enter the villa—the man seemed to be a famous actor, and the woman sensual in figure, probably a model.
