Rebirth Turn

As soon as they walked out of the casino, the two put on their coats.It's January now, and the temperature in Las Vegas at night is still very low, and the temperature difference between indoor and outdoor is even greater.

The two deliberately chose a casino that was quite close to the hotel where they stayed, so there was no need to take a taxi, just walk back.

In fact, the hotel they stayed in had a casino, which was also a major feature of the casino. Most of the hotels had their own casinos.But for Lu Yan and Su Mo, enjoying the fun of gambling is one thing, and traveling the city together is also a kind of fun.

Las Vegas is indeed a city that never sleeps. At night, the whole city is even more bustling and noisy.The huge electronic billboards change various patterns dreamily, making people dizzying.The neon lights of different shapes are constantly changing in various colors, making people dazzled.Each skyscraper presents a different light color; the landmark building in front of each hotel is full of brilliance.There are also large-scale performances in front of many hotels.

Lu Yan and Su Mo walked the streets, watching the night scene together with the tourists.They walked side by side, their hands intertwined, the other in the pocket of their overcoat.The weather was cold, but their bodies were very warm when they were next to each other.They have nothing to talk about, but the occasional eyes that meet each other express affection and sweetness.

Unknowingly walked far.

No matter how prosperous a place is, there will always be some dark corners, and Las Vegas, the city that never sleeps, is no exception.

Gradually, the lights are no longer as numerous as the stars, and there are fewer tourists on the road, and the footsteps behind him become more and more obvious.

From the moment he left the casino, there were a few little tails behind him.The two of them noticed it from the very beginning, and deliberately led people around for a while, and then walked to this slightly remote road.They should have been targeted in the casino. The two of them had a good harvest tonight, not to mention that they refused the escort of the security guards.

Lu Yan and Su Mo looked at each other, and they both saw confidence and smiles in each other's eyes.

There were only three people following behind, all of whom were young and strong.They followed Lu and Su all the way. At first, they saw them sneaking into the crowd, thinking that there was no chance, but they kept following because they were not reconciled.Unexpectedly, they suddenly turned into a remote place, probably because the outsiders did not understand the terrain.Anyway, here's an opportunity.All three wanted to win here.

Who knew that after following around for a few laps, he suddenly lost track of him.The three of them looked at each other, unable to believe their eyes, they were professionals at this, but were shrugged off by two Asians who looked harmless.

The three searched separately, hoping to find the target again, but as soon as they turned around, they saw the person they were following appear in front of them, and they were really shocked at that moment.

Lu Yan stood in the shadow of the light, looking at the three European youths exposed in front of him, while Su Mo stood beside him quietly.Lu Yan slightly bent his mouth and asked in English, "Are you looking for us?"

The three of them glanced at each other and didn't speak. If they didn't feel something was wrong at this time, it would have been a waste of their work for so long.This time I really missed it.

Lu Yan didn't mind their silence, and smiled again, "You have been following us, what's the matter?"

The three of them still didn't speak, and Lu Yan also felt a little bored, so he took out the check and waved it in front of the three of them, "Do you want this? Let's play a game, the three of you, and the two of us," Lu Yan said. He pointed at the three of them with his index finger and then turned back to point at himself and Su Mo, "If you win, this is yours. If you lose, you have to leave."

Three vs. two. If you lose, you will be beaten up at most. If you win, you can get what you want. There is no reason not to fight.What's more, even if a few of us want to leave now, the two men on the opposite side must agree.

Lu Yan smiled slightly, and slowly took the check back into his arms, "You're welcome, you can get it if you win." His casual attitude, first of all, was slightly better in terms of momentum.

The tallest of the three youths rushed over suddenly, threw a punch at Lu Yan, then turned suddenly in the middle of the way, and swung towards Su Mo.The other two had already made a move when the first person made a move, and their target was not confusing, it was directly Lu Yan.

Okay, I know how to use a little bit of tactics, although it's a bit simple and rough.Lu Yan thought to himself, this would be more interesting.As for Su Mo, Lu Yan didn't even turn his head to look.Although he had never seen Su Mo make a move, Lu Yan had also heard from Su Jue that Su Mo's skills were very good, and it would be easy for a son like Su Xi and the others to hit ten of them.

Lu Yan concentrated on dealing with the two people in front of him. Those who can do this kind of business in Las Vegas must not be mediocre.

Sure enough, these two people cooperated very well, each attack was almost at the same time, one hit the facade, and the other swept down the plate, and the shots were ruthless and merciless, every attack was the one that was most likely to collapse where the enemy fights.

However, Lu Yan was not an ordinary person. In addition to the skills he had honed in the fight club for two years, he also had the beautiful fists and embroidered legs taught to him by his master when he was a child.

Orientals like to pay attention to offense and defense when using martial arts. There are usually seven defensive moves out of ten moves, and only three offensive moves.Westerners are relatively simple and rude. If you want to hit someone, you must learn to be beaten first. They often don't avoid the opponent's offensive very much. They like to use force to control force and make quick decisions.If the strength of the two sides is very different, it is naturally better to fight quickly. If it is between brothers, there is still a problem of continued strength to consider.

What's more, Lu Yanyuan was superior in skills, and he didn't try his best at the beginning, but just saw the tricks.First test out the opponent's attack routines, and then resolve them one by one.As time passed, the advantages became more and more obvious.

Lu Yan's side gradually gained the upper hand, and the two European youths were out of breath, and they hit him several times, but they didn't hit him once.

Su Mo's side ended the battle first, and the people who went towards him at the beginning had been beaten to the ground and couldn't even stand up.With Su Mo's joining, this side also ended soon. The two people who were already exhausted by Lu Yan's four or two strokes surrendered directly when Su Mofu joined, squatting on the side and panting. waist.

Lu Yan clapped his hands, and smiled at Su Mo, who was still calm and composed, "Su Dong is very skilled."

The corner of Su Mo's mouth twitched, and his voice was low, "Mr. Lu didn't give in too much."

Before the two of them had time to say a few more words, the European youth who had stopped fighting over there called out in a low voice, "Damn it, the police are here, let's go."

Those three people stumbled and ran away, Lu Yan also pulled Su Mo and ran away.It's not a big deal, and they're still victims, but they don't want to be called to the police station for a statement while they're on their honeymoon.

Lu Yan dragged Su Mo to run on the streets of Las Vegas on a cold night. The gusts of wind blew their open coats, whistling, and the cold wind hit their faces, which was both icy and irritating.

After running for a while, the two stopped. They no longer knew where they were, but it was a little more remote than the place just now.There were few pedestrians, and only a few men and women in thin clothes and heavy makeup were occasionally seen. As long as you think about it casually, you can know where you are.Las Vegas encourages gambling, but strictly prohibits sex trafficking, but no matter how banned it is, it cannot really be eradicated.Society is like this, as long as there is demand, there will be sales.

The two walked hand in hand, those men and women saw their intertwined hands, and probably could guess their relationship, but they didn't come forward to solicit business unwisely.

Along the way, I saw many corners or shadows, men and women, men and women, and women and women hugging and kissing together, and the occasional slight panting and moaning sound constantly stimulated the eardrums of the two.

When walking through a dark alley, Lu Yan suddenly pulled Su Mo in, turned around and pressed him against the wall, and kissed him eagerly. Su Mo also grabbed his shoulder without hesitation, and responded eagerly.

They were kissing inextricably, when suddenly a beam of light hit their faces, and at the same time a voice said in English, "Sir, transactions are not allowed here."

Although the light is not particularly strong, it is very uncomfortable when it hits the face. Lu Yan stretched out his hand to cover it, and looked up. There was a plainclothes standing at the entrance of the alley, looking at him with disapproval, obviously misunderstood their words relation.

Lu Yan smiled, took Su Mo's ring-wearing hand and raised it together with his own, "Mr. Police, you misunderstood, we just got married and came for our honeymoon."

The expression on the plainclothes's face relaxed, he whistled, and said with a smile, "Oh, congratulations. But there are a lot of stray warblers here, so it's not a good place to do business. You'd better leave quickly."

Lu Yan nodded and said, "Thank you for your reminder, but we seem to be a little lost."

The plainclothes pointed them in the direction, "You can go there for a while, and you can get a taxi."

"Ok, thank you."

In the end, you still have to take a taxi to get back to the hotel where you stayed.

They returned home the next day.In the month before the Spring Festival, neither Lu Yan nor Su Mo would have much free time.

A few days later, another big news came that "The Legend of Wang Xuance" had been shortlisted for the Golden Bear Award for Best Film at this year's Berlin Film Festival, and Lu Yan was also nominated for Best Actor.

The Berlin International Film Festival is known as the three major international film festivals together with the Cannes Film Festival and the Venice Film Festival, and is one of the four major art film festivals in the world.The Berlin Film Festival was first held between June and July. Later, in order to compete with the Cannes Film Festival, it was held earlier in February and March, and every January is the time when it determines the shortlist.

It is not the first time that Chen Li has been shortlisted for the Berlin Film Festival. He has been shortlisted for the Best Picture Award three times before, and finally won the Golden Bear for his film "Wei Qing" and the Silver Bear for Best Director.This has happened many years ago, and Chen Li is also the first Chinese director to win these two awards at the Berlin Film Festival.

Domestic public opinion is generally very optimistic about Chen Li's nomination. After all, it is not an exaggeration to say that Chen Li is the most influential director in China. It won the Palme d'Or and even won the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film.

But for Lu Yan's nomination for Best Actor, his attitude is a bit subtle.

Lu Yan has already won the Golden Statue and Golden Horse Best Actor this year for his role as Ji You in "Can't Help". Although it is rare, it is not unique.But this year is not over yet, and he was once again shortlisted for the Silver Bear Award for Best Actor for his role as Wang Xuance in "The Legend of Wang Xuance".That's a little too fast for an actor as young as he is.

There is no lack of miracles in the entertainment industry, and the myth of overnight popularity is often staged, but such a situation as Lu Yan is still rare.Actors are not cabbages and radishes, you can buy them if you want them, and many actors have spent their entire lives without getting a few nominations. When it comes to Lu Yan, it seems like it's easy to get.But having said that, taking the actor is also not a charity. It doesn't mean that you will get it if you work hard enough and pay enough. Sometimes it doesn't even matter if you have acting skills. It also depends on the right time, place and people.Some actors are known as the uncrowned kings, but there are also some who miss the awards all their lives.There are also some actors who have won seven or eight best actor for just one role in one movie.

But no matter what, it was a certainty that Lu Yan was shortlisted for the Silver Bear Award for Best Actor, and the fans were once again excited by the news.
