"THE LOST TOMB 2 - Explore With The Note"

"Episode 10"

These are all poorly displayed.

Besides,

look at those in the middle,

they are not exactly eye-catching.

What kind of style is this?

The ones on the sides, the middle one...

Just leave them be.

Let's look around for the Snake Eye Copper Fish.

Snake Eye Copper Horse.

Snake Eye Copper Cow.

Fatty, look at that.

This painting's lifespan will be reduced.

This painting should be kept away from dust and light.

In particular the ultraviolet rays,

which will cause a great damage to the paintings.

It will make them hardened and brittle.

I need to talk to the curator.

This is so unprofessional.

Hold on, this isn't really necessary for you to...

It's not your shop.

Though it's true that the lighting is so...

I mean you can't even look at the painting properly.

Excuse me, sir.

Hello.

I need to talk with Hendry.

Hendry?

You can find him over there.

-Okay, thanks. -That's fine.

It really isn't necessary for you to...

He's so meddlesome.

Those are the things...

that everyone try to get their hands on.

And of course,

if you ask...

how much are these,

but it's really hard for me to give you any idea.

These things need to be organized.

Excuse me, sir.

May I talk with...

Hendry?

Wait a moment.

-I'll find you later. -All right.

What's the matter? May I help you?

Good to see you.

My name is Wu Xie.

Hello, Mr. Wu.

You're so fluent in Chinese.

I had lived in China...

for a long time.

It's a beautiful country.

Thank you.

How may I help you?

Here's the thing,

I'm truly passionate about artifacts.

It's such an honor...

to visit your museum.

But I've noticed...

some slight issues.

The preservation of certain...

precious artifacts could be improved.

For example, those paintings.

If the lighting...

could be...

slightly adjusted,

-they could... -Precious?

Mr. Wu, is that a praise...

on those waste paper?

Waste paper?

Most of those paintings...

were artifacts from Ming and Qing dynasties.

The painters were nobodies.

They don't worth much.

For me,

they are not much different...

to waste paper.

But you collected them,

you have the duty to protect them.

That is your responsibility.

An investment, sir.

It's just an investment.

I have many artifacts...

in my museum...

that are much more valuable than them.

Though, it still needs some embellishment.

I see it now.

You don't love artifacts.

You're just a businessman.

Businessman, art collector...

It's just a label.

No matter what,

Chinese people should thank me...

and other people like me.

All right.

I get it.

But you should know that...

these artifacts...

could worth more...

if they got better preservation!

Yes.

It isn't hard...

and it won't cost me much.

But,

unless I could live long,

and these artifacts could belong to me forever,

otherwise, their future...

is worthless to me.

Couldn't you at least...

consider the future generation?

Appreciation or hatred...

is meaningless...

for a dead man.

Mr. Hendry!

What's the most important...

for you?

Life and death.

So that's Hendry.

I saw that you two were arguing.

What were you fighting about?

I've walked around.

There's no fish.

That reminds me,

I've forgotten to ask about the auction.

Chill, relax.

Let's ask around.

Hello, hello.

Come here, come.

Go on and ask him.

Excuse me, sir.

Do you know about the auction here?

I'm sorry, sir.

You must've been mistaken.

There's no auction here.

That's fine.

I'll show you the picture.

Give me a second.

Do you know about...

this Chinese snake?

I know that your museum...

has the Chinese snake.

Do you know about this?

I'm sorry, sir. I've never seen this before.

Why is he shaking his head?

He's never seen the Snake Eye Copper Fish.

And there isn't any auction.

No?

No...no...no.

We came here for this.

Coming to this foreign country.

We flew from Beijing.

It's impossible that you don't have it here.

Sorry, sir.

We saw that...

on your...

museum's website.

We came here just for the Chinese snake.

A kind of snake-shaped Chinese artifact.

Have you seen it?

I'm sorry.

I have no idea.

I knew it.

It was a scam message.

We should've checked it through...

before we came.

What a waste of time.

This is so strange.

Uncle San Xing?

What?

What are you doing?

What are you after?

I saw Uncle San Xing.

Your Uncle San Xing?

What is your uncle doing here?

It's not possible.

I'll look around.

No, wait...

And you were so sure about...

the auction of Snake Eye Copper Fish too!

You...

Where is he?

Where is he?

It really is Uncle San Xing.

What is he doing there?

Why is he talking...

to that guy?

Who is that?

I saw him talking with the curator...

in the museum just now.

But I don't know...

who he is.

Hendry?

Go and ask him then.

Go now.

Hello, can you take a photo for us?

Never mind, go ahead and take the photo for them.

Excuse me, I'm in a hurry.

Okay, thank you.

Fatty.

Fatty, where is my Uncle San Xing?

He's gone!

Just disappeared like the Little Master.

Seriously.

He's totally gone. What should we do?

Let's go.

Let's go after the foreigner.

Let's go.

Hurry, follow him.

You drive this same car in China.

You chose to rent this model in a foreign country as well.

Do you have any obsession with this?

Is you ex-girlfriend called Maserati?

Stop it.

Say, the guy in front...

has taken the box that my uncle...

gave him.

Where is he going?

He certainly can't be meeting Uncle San Xing.

He surely can't be meeting him both morning and evening.

It's not like they're dating.

Fatty,

what do you think is going on...

between Uncle San Xing,

Hendry...

and this tall guy?

And what about the auction?

Is the Snake Eye Copper Fish...

even in the museum?

Hey,

can't you ask me questions that I know the answers to?

Fatty,

I feel like...

my life...

is a giant puzzle.

It's like there's an exit everywhere,

but you only notice when you walk out of it that...

it's all leading to a dead end.

Hey,

can you please control...

your emotions?

Stop being so serious all the time.

What if...

-you get depressed? -I won't.

Listen,

the message that we received in Beijing,

and the website...

they were all guiding us here.

And we both thought that we could find the...

Snake Eye Copper Fish here.

But we found nothing...

now that we're finally here.

I've been trying to say this,

this whole thing is full of...

one word, schemes and...

sorry, two words,

schemes and tricks.

You're saying that...

someone is setting us up?

There are only few people...

who are capable of drawing you away...

from China.

It's not the kind of thing...

Uncle San Xing would do.

Stop bringing up...

your Uncle San Xing...

all the time.

What about the other one?

Ning.

Ning?

Her company?

But why?

Since you've managed to survive the underwater tomb,

she's been waiting to kill you overseas.

Besides, the investigation will be harder...

if you are killed overseas.

Not to mention,

the cost of killing you...

is so affordable this time,

since we paid for our own plane tickets.

What a smart move.

But Ning doesn’t know about...

the Snake Eye Copper Fish.

Not necessarily.

Like in the underwater tomb,

it was Ning who tricked you there...

through your Uncle San Xing.

And she was so convincing...

when she told you about Uncle San Xing...

and the archeology team.

She might even know...

Xie Lian Huan was holding the...

Snake Eye Copper Fish when he died.

But the copper fish photo...

on the website...

was real.

Ning has the Snake Eye Copper Fish.

You're good!

She's exposed now.

Good for you.

You actually figured it out and cracked the case!

Look at their firearms.

Could this be a military base?

Doesn't look like one.

Hello, sir.

Your invitation card, please.

Fatty,

looks like we need an invitation to go in there.

You're right, what should we do?

How would I know?

Do I look like an invitation card to you?

-Come up with something. -Do you take me as...

Sir.

Forget it, get off the car.

Here...here...here.

This...this...this.

Get off now, go.

Let's just get in separately.

-See you in there. -Fine.

-Fine. -See you later.

What should I do?

Please wait a moment.

Please show us your invitation.

Hello.

I am the VIP here.

I just forgot to bring my invitation card.

Could you let me...

attend the event tonight?

I'm sorry.

You're only allowed in...

with the invitation card.

I really have the invitation card.

But I'll miss tonight's event...

if I go back to get it.

And tonight is...

such a big deal for me.

I'm sorry, sir.

I can only let you in...

with the invitation card.

But...

You invitation card is here.

Hold on.

Please show us your invitation card.

I'm with her!

Tina.

Go home, talk next time.

Putting a boy ahead of your friend.

Come on!

Why are you helping me?

It's such a beautiful night,

I need a...

young and handsome date.

Put it on for me.

My pleasure.

What should I do? What should I do?

Let's go.

Are you serious?

-Hello. -What is wrong with you?

So sorry.

Take a look at it.

You ruined my shirt.

I didn't mean it.

I'll make it up to you.

Good evening, sir.

Please.

Please, sir.

Please, go ahead.

Hands up.

-Okay, please. -Please.

-Please. -Good evening.

Put your hands up.

Okay.

Where's your invitation card?

He's with me.

That's my friend.

If he's not coming,

I'm not coming.

We're sorry, please.

This way, please.

Hands up.

Thank you.

It's nice to meet you.

I think it's going to be...

a wonderful night.

Hi, Alice.

My friend is over there.

Let's go over there.

I'll introduce you to each other.

Sure.

But...

my friends are here too.

I would like to find them first.

I'll meet you later, is that okay?

But you could see my friend first...

before you find yours.

I'll be back soon.

Okay.

Father.

Whenever I look at the silk book,

I think about...

the human history.

There are so many...

mysterious treasures.

You see,

if it wasn't for the inspiration...

I got from the silk book...

in the Chinese tapestry,

who would have thought that the silk book would've been a pattern.

This is the pattern...

from the silk book?

Yes.

What does it mean?

We're still working on it.

What?

I can't believe we've got it...

after so many years of searching.

Yes,

I've spent most of my life...

solving this puzzle.

You know,

soon,

my time will be up.

I know...

vampires are timeless.

But for them, there's only darkness.

Where's the meaning in that?

You're right, Ning.

If there's a way...

to live forever...

without the need to hide in the darkness...

like a vampire,

will you use it?

For sure.

Me too.

But that's...

extremely unlikely.

Otherwise, the world...

would be...

full of...

ageless humans.

Maybe it's something...

only few people can access.

And it's full of...

unpredictable changes.

Father,

you make it sound real.

Is the auction ready?

Everything's ready.

The person you asked for has arrived.

I hope this man will not disappoint me.

I'm so gonna talk about this with your manager!

I didn't mean it.

I'm so sorry.

Sorry.

Come with me.

No...no.

Come with me, come with me.

Come.

My phone...

Have you found it?

The angle is not good enough.

Look towards your 11 o'clock.

Done.

This should be enough.

I'm looking like a fool.

And I don't think this catalogue...

contains all the exhibits.

Yes.

Let me take a look at it.

Exhibit No.105.

Do you like this one?

This exhibit looks good.

Yes, honey. I like this one.

Miss, would you like to have a drink with me?

Sorry, today I'm...

Excuse me.

Why didn't you have a drink with him?

I will have a drink with you though.

How is it?

Can you hear me clearly?

Do you need me to walk over there?

-Hello. -Sir.

Do you have cocktail?

I have wine...wine.

No...no...no.

-I don't want any wine. -Good...good.

-This is good. -I want a cocktail.

-Very good wine. -No...no...no.

Okay, never mind.

Sorry...sorry.

How did you get in here?

That's not the way to talk to a VIP.

No way.

We got in here together.

How are we in different classes?

I want to be a VIP too.

I don't want to be a waiter.

So do you want a wine?

No, thanks.

-Let's get to business. -What a poser.

The Snake Eye Copper Fish is really here.

What is its number?

Find out its number.

It really is here!

Turns out our trip isn't a waste of time.

Ladies and gentlemen,

this auction will start soon.

If you like any items,

just raise your hand with the bidding number.

Go and find a seat now.

-Don't stand with a waiter, go. -Please leave your contact...

if you want to bid.

Someone will contact you...

about the payment and how to take away the property.

That's for sure, of course.

It's called delivery.

Now,

everybody,

so let's see...

the first item of the day.

Please.

Ladies and gentlemen,

as you can see,

this is a Buddha's statue from India.

It was brought to the United States by an American businessman...

in the 17th century.

So the bidding price for this item is 2 million.

2 million.

3 million.

4 million over there.

Ladies and gentlemen,

4 million for the statue.

5 million here.

What about 6 million?

6 million for the item.

Anyone?

6 million once.

That gentleman, 6 million.

6 million once.

Let's wrap it up.

Deal.

Congratulations to this gentleman.

Wonderful piece of art.

Look at that.

He's here.

Look at him sneaking out.

Start the car.

Let's go after him.

Fatty.

Are we done?

Let's go now.

Who?

That Audi in front.

That one? Okay.

Why's he coming back to this place?

These guys...

get their hands dirty in the business,

yet they still pray for...

the blessings of Buddha.

What's the meaning of it?

This place is filled with different kinds of people,

and lots of tourists.

It's just a camouflage for them.

Come on.

Let's look around.

I think I've seen that guy before.

Where did you see him?

Yes, in Panjiayuan.

He's an expert in Chinese culture.

He has a particular interest in...

traditional handicrafts.

He learns from masters all around.

Though he uses his skills to do bad things.

He has dealt with Mr. Han, Mr. Sun...

and Mr. Zao before.

Selling artifacts overseas.

An auctioneer...

and an artifact seller.

I'm guessing that...

they are the ones...

who's selling those stuff...

in the auction.

It won't be a pity even if...

they were executed by having their bodies shot at...

for 5 full minutes.

What's wrong with you?

Are you having a temper because you haven't slept all night?

Fatty,

did you take a look at the construction behind?

A magnificent...

golden pagoda like this...

can't be constructed without faith.

It serves as the support of faith...

that's guarding this little town...

and protecting the people in town.

Therefore,

faith...

is very important.

What are you talking about?

Fatty,

do you have faith?

I have.

You know it.

This.

Why?

What is your faith?

I want to do...

things that are meaningful.

Fatty,

tonight,

we must win the bidding of...

Snake Eye Copper Fish.

Mr. Wang.

It's fine for you to joke around other times.

Can't you be helpful at this critical moment?

Go to hell!

Fine, cut it out. Get lost.

I've known you for many years.

I've never asked for your help before.

But this time,

I'm really in a crisis.

Can you lend me some money?

Any progress from your side?

Yes, yes.

I understand.

Then about the money...

Hello? Hello?

"Beike Real Estate"

Hello, Mr. Li.

It's me, I'm Wu Xie.

Wu Xie.

Yes, I was the one who called you.

I know you're busy,

you probably didn't see it.

I heard about you,

you want to borrow some money, is it?

Yes...yes.

You heard about it.

I'm sorry to disturb you.

Can you lend me some money?

I don't want it.

I said I don't want it.

What do you mean by this?

I sold a house in a real estate listings site.

Just take it. It's heavy.

I'll put this down for you.

I might...

need some time to pay you back.

By the way,

let's say that...

I've paid you back for my debt.

Stop asking anything from me.

I'm really not paying you back then.

Let's go.

Be ready.

Ladies and gentlemen,

it was a wonderful evening.

I'm very glad that everyone...

could come to today's auction.

And I'm very pleased...

to introduce a new item to you.

Please.

This is good stuff.

What is this doing here?

Isn't this normal?

China's relics were lost...

in the fire of Yuanmingyuan Park...

during the Anglo-French expedition to China.

But this is even rare in China.

I've never seen one in such good condition...

despite my years in the industry.

They're all in foreign collections.

Well, ladies and gentlemen,

it's the most beautiful vase...

in Yuanmingyuan of the Qing dynasty.

There's a touching story...

behind this porcelain vase.

No way.

China's artifact...

can't fall into the hands...

of foreigners.

There are hundreds and thousands...

of these artifacts overseas.

And they are all good stuff.

Do you think you can save all of it...

by just saving this one?

Just let it go.

Of course.

Let me tell you...

the touching story behind it.

Only the luckiest man...

could have this beautiful vase.

It was in Qing Dynasty,

and it is right now in the modern world.

He is right.

The porcelain vase...

is from the era of Kangxi.

It's valuable and very rare.

What is he talking about?

They used this beautiful vase...

as the symbol of their love.

He is introducing...

the history of this artifact.

He said it's from Yuanmingyuan,

the Empress Dowager Cixi's...

favourite item.

See, he got the time right.

But Uncle Sam does not...

wish this to happen,

he must let her go now.

Ladies and gentlemen,

the price of this porcelain bottle is...

10 million.

Ladies and gentlemen,

I got a 11 million over there.

Xiu Xiu.

Ladies and gentlemen,

11 million.

Ladies and gentlemen,

11 million going once,

11 million...

12 million now.

Ladies and gentlemen,

over here.

Think it through.

That's porcelain vase.

Not...

Snake Eye Copper Fish.

I know.

But I can't let it...

fall into the foreigner's hands.

It's him.

I will play with you.

This lady,

bids for 13 million.

Hold on,

Chinese, Chinese.

That's Chinese.

Stop bidding for it...

since that's a Chinese now.

Don't you move.

Don't be impulsive.

13 million.

14 million now from the gentleman.

14 million,

ladies and gentlemen.

I've got a 15 million.

What are you doing?

15 million,

ladies and gentlemen.

16 million from the...

first row of woman in the middle.

It's done, it's done.

Just let her bid for it.

Do you really need to compete with her?

Why has she got on you?

Is 16 million the highest of bid,

ladies and gentlemen?

Anyone else?

16 million going once,

16 million...

Isn't that Wu Xie?

What is he doing here?

Who's that guy sitting next to him?

That's Fatty Wang.

16 million going twice.

17 million...

from the young gentleman sitting in the first row on my right.

17 million.

17 million.

Think it through.

Between the Snake Eye Copper Fish, your Uncle San Xing,

and the porcelain vase, which is more important?

Stop bidding.

Stop bidding, give that to me.

Stop bidding, give it to me.

18 million.

Still the young gentleman...

on my right in the second row.

18 million,

ladies and gentlemen.

Hello, is this the police station?

Wonderful, ladies and gentlemen.

18 million now.

Since when did Wu Xie...

become so wealthy?

Ladies and gentlemen,

18 million sold!

This vase belongs to this...

young gentleman now.

That's my money there!

The police will be here in 10 minutes.

Ladies and gentlemen,

please calm down.

I just received a tip saying that...

the police will arrive...

in 10 minutes.

Are you the one who did it?

You know it.

Stop smiling.

What should we do now?

Get off work.

There is no need to panic.

10 minutes is enough for everyone to leave.

Thank you.
