I am a literary giant in Europe

Chapter 761 The Second Bodyguard (55)

Monica left Salerno in the morning.

Eva arrived in the evening!
However, she did not come alone, but with a group of people.

Leonardo DiCaprio, John Lone, and Tom Hardy.

Nolan was originally going to come too... He had some conflict with Liu Jin because he was unhappy with Liu Jin's arrangements for the actors.

For example, the celestial beauty, and John Lone!
He had no objection to Eva.

After all, Eva is a veteran of Hollywood and is of French Jewish descent.

It's not that Nolan dislikes Chinese actors, it's just that he dislikes Liu Jin's interference.

However, after seeing Angelina Jolie's performance in "The Bélier Family," Nolan said nothing more.

As for John Lone, he's a veteran actor in Hollywood!

He has simply rarely appeared in any productions in recent years.

Nolan preferred Ken Watanabe for the role, but after seeing John Lone's audition... While John Lone wasn't as tall as Watanabe, her innate, uniquely Chinese elegance gave her portrayal of the tycoon a distinctive charm. Nolan even rewatched John Lone's previous work and was speechless.

He wanted to come to Salerno!
Because he had seen reports and photos of Sun Stone Bay Beach.

So he came up with a special idea: he wanted Liu Jin to replace Gordon and play the role of 'Outpost' Arthur.

He even consulted with Eva and Leonardo DiCaprio about it.

"Dr. Amos's physique and appearance are very suitable for the role of the outpost."

He's gentle and refined, very deceptive. Moreover, his practical combat skills are exceptional; having him join would save at least ten million dollars in advertising costs.

Eva agreed.

She would be willing to work with Lau Chun again, even if they weren't playing lovers in the film.

But one sentence from Leonardo DiCaprio changed their minds.

"I heard that Amos is about to complete the transaction, and I estimate that he will be focusing his energy on the financial markets for the foreseeable future."

Do you think he would give up billions of dollars in earnings for a role?
He had been working on this for a full year and a half.

Eva thought for a moment and then stopped offering her opinion.

Nolan could only manage a wry smile!

If it were me, I would definitely postpone filming to finish up!
That's billions in assets.

So he had to give up the idea.

Fortunately, he only contacted Leonardo DiCaprio and Eva Longoria. If Gordon had found out, it would probably have been another source of uncertainty for the entire film crew.

So he gathered Gordon and others to create outdoor scenes in Paris.

After all, it will be turned on in another two weeks.

Xiao Li and the others also took this opportunity to come and meet Liu Jin.

He had his eye on Liu Jin's yacht, while John Lone hoped to take this opportunity to express his gratitude to Liu Jin in person.

After all, he had already managed to return to China to film "Kangxi's Private Visits".

Without Inception, John Lone would most likely have faded from the film industry.

After 08, information about him will become increasingly scarce...

Even after years in Hollywood, this was the first time he had ever been able to star in such a high-budget project.

Even if it's just a supporting role.

But it is enough to be a brilliant stroke in his resume.

"Fuck, if I had known this would happen, I should have come to see you on New Year's Eve."

When Leonardo DiCaprio arrived at the villa, he could still see the remnants left from the great battle.

Jerome explained where the bullet holes were and where the RPG explosions were, which got the men's blood pumping.

Eva only feels sorry for Amos!
Why don't you run away!

"I ran away this time, but this kind of thing will happen frequently in the future."

After I've fought those bastards this time, few in all of Europe will dare to mess with me or covet my wealth again.

"America too."

Leonardo DiCaprio nodded repeatedly in agreement.

"Then join us."

"what?"

"Hardy, how about I send you a set of books later?"

"That would be great!"

Liu Jin suddenly remembered that the British Communist Party no longer existed in Great Britain!
Although the British Communist Party was never part of the mainstream in Great Britain, it played a significant role in the country from its founding in 1920 until 1990. Unfortunately, in 1991, an old woman named Nina Temple became its president, rejected Marxist ideology, renamed itself the Democratic Left, and has since become a staunch feminist party.

The French and Italian communist parties are still the most resilient!
"Summer, I'll come find you."

"what?"

"We're using water guns here."

Liu Jin glanced at Xiao Li with an expression that said, "I'm all grown up now, I don't play with these kinds of childish toys."

"I'm using real guns now!"

"Vakyo!"

Xiao Li felt humiliated by Liu Jin.

……

Eva and her friends had a very tight schedule. They arrived on Tuesday, and on Wednesday, Liu Jin took them out to sea for a day. They returned to Paris early Thursday morning.

After all, I have a job.

Then on Friday, Alizee arrived.

She also brought a Steinway grand piano and placed it next to the living room on the first-floor terrace.

"I don't know how to do it, why would I buy this?"

"Yes, I can. I'll play the piano for you when I have more free time in the second half of the year, okay?"

"it is good!"

I almost forgot, this girl graduated from the Toulouse National Conservatory of Music.

When she graduated, she had reached Grade 6 in the French piano grading exams, which is close to Grade 7, or the higher level.

Last year, she took the ABRSM exam, which is the Royal Academy of Music piano exam, and achieved Grade 7.

However, this seventh grade is different from the seventh grade in piano exams in China and France.

Piano exams in China and France have ten levels, while those in European countries such as the UK, Germany, and Italy generally have eight levels.

ABRSM Level 7 is roughly equivalent to Level 9 in China and France.

To put it simply, Alizee's current level is not at the pianist level, but it has reached the performance level.

"This piano must be expensive."

"It's alright, around 15."

"I almost forgot, Ali is quite wealthy now!"

"Giggle!"

Alizee couldn't help but laugh, like a proud little swan.

"By the way, Clay contacted me, saying he wants to set up a family trust in my name?"

"Ok!"

Liu Jin nodded and said softly, "I will put all the proceeds from my French works into this trust fund."

"why?"

"Because I want to give you more security!"

"what?"

Alizee was taken aback for a moment, then her face lit up with a smile.

A strange warmth welled up in her heart, and she leaned against Liu Jin's chest, hugging his waist tightly.

In the villa's workshop, the assistant watched the two people cuddling on the terrace.

"Men are not good people."

Jerome, who was helping to tidy up the workspace, asked in confusion, "Huh?"

"I meant Boss!"

"What's wrong with the doctor?"

"Hmph, Monday was a drive with Monica, Wednesday was a boat trip with Eva and the others, Friday was with Alizee..."

"And then there's Sophie Marceau, Scarlett Johansson, and that little bitch named Victoria..."

"Mia, are you jealous?"

"No, I just... I just couldn't stand it."

Jerome covered his mouth, chuckling to himself.

"All outstanding men are like this."

“Jerome, isn’t it a bit underwhelming that you came all the way from France to Salerno by yourself?”

Jerome's expression changed.

That's called being single-minded!

There's really nothing to talk about with a little girl like you.

……

"By the way, when I came here, Gina said she had found a suitable person."

"What?"

“Didn’t you ask her to find you a bodyguard? She found one, a former member of the French SPHP, named Margot Félicité de Mailly, an excellent bodyguard.”

What is SPHP?

Liu Jin was startled.

I hope it's not some political department again.

Alizee explained, "SPHP is an abbreviation for Service de Protection des Hautes Personnalités, which is a department under the French National Police General Directorate that is specifically responsible for the security of high-risk personnel such as politicians and diplomats."

"Ohlala, a professional bodyguard?"

“Yes!” Alizee said, “Gina said that more than half of the people in this department will join GSPR, and they are part of GSPR’s talent pool. Well, GSPR is the security and protection group, similar to the XXX bodyguard organization in your country.”

"Someone this talented wouldn't be unemployed?"

"Gina said that Miley beat her boss into a castration in a fit of rage because she was being harassed by him."

She was sentenced to a year in prison and only got out last October… You know, having been to prison, and being a woman, makes it hard to find a job.”

Liu Jin scratched his head and remained silent for a moment.
