I am a literary giant in Japan

This wave of outrageous moves in the French literary world shocked the world.

French writers and readers also used their French enthusiasm to prove to the world how much they love Kitagawa Hide and his works.

The Chanel Group, which had originally decided to temporarily distance itself from Kitagawa Hide due to the Arnault Club and Nobel Prize controversy, began to regret it.

The brothers Alain Wertheimer and Gerard Wertheimer, who actually controlled the Chanel Group, suddenly became clowns in the industry.

Especially Gerard Wertheimer.

It was he who initially followed the advice of his daughter Olivia and strongly recommended Kitagawa Hide to compete for the Goncourt Prize, and helped him expand his territory in the French literary market and gain recognition from the University of Paris Press.

It was also because of this incident that the share price and assets of the Chanel Group grew rapidly within two years, making it the largest beneficiary after Kitagawa Hide's rise, except for the American Autry family.

But this time, Kitagawa Hide was at odds with the Nobel Prize officials and the Arnault couple who had great power in Sweden and Norway. After weighing the pros and cons, Gerard Wertheimer adhered to the principles of a businessman and finally decided not to help either side and temporarily draw a clear line with Kitagawa Hide.

Not only that, when his daughter Olivia mortgaged her perfume brand company to get money to help Kitagawa Hide, he "sacrificed his own family for the sake of justice" and redeemed his daughter's company while putting her under house arrest to show his loyalty to celebrities in Sweden and Norway.

In the entire Chanel Group, only Olivia continued to support Kitagawa Hide without looking back, and even abducted the Crown Princess of Sweden to the United States for this!
Now the situation has completely reversed. As a result of this incident, Chanel Group's reputation in the French market has plummeted, and there is no room for recovery.

In contrast, Olivia's perfume brand has been rising steadily and has become a high-end luxury brand that is completely tied to Hide Kitagawa.

The romance and loyalty of the French are fully embodied in Olivia, and French writers and readers also hope to use her to highlight these qualities in themselves.

After it was announced that the Goncourt Prize was awarded to Kitagawa Hide, Oudmaison and Combesco immediately called Kitagawa Hide to congratulate him.

Since meeting Kitagawa Hide, these two great writers have been helping him wholeheartedly. The fact that "The Dancing Girl of Izu" was nominated for the Nobel Prize in Literature is also due to their efforts.

Odmeson even transformed from a great writer into a researcher of Kitagawa Hide.

In the past two years at home, he has devoted himself to translating and annotating all of Kitagawa Hide's works. The Audemason edition of "Kitagawa Hide's Novels" is also the most popular overseas translated work in France.

They really hope that Hide Kitagawa can take this opportunity to come to France - the collision and communication between great writers can easily inspire creative inspiration, and communicating with top writers like Hide Kitagawa is the dream of all authors.

Unfortunately, after entering June, Japan's economy became turbulent due to parliamentary elections and the change of prime minister, and the heavy blow to the banking industry caused by "Hanzawa Naoki". As a billionaire with a net worth of hundreds of billions, Kitagawa Hidetoku was busy with finance and currency exchange and had no time to go abroad.

Time flies and it is already mid-June.

Kitagawa Hide did not go to Paris, France to receive his second Prix Goncourt medal.

However, Rena Saito and Yumeko excitedly traveled together to Paris to get the medals and prizes they had been longing for.

Olivia, who had gone to the United States with Victoria, heard that her two sisters had come to Paris, so she hurriedly flew back and met them at the Paris airport.

There is an old saying next door: "Three women make a play."

When these three women got together, Beichuan Xiu had no idea what kind of drama they would perform. Anyway, he didn't care and didn't want to delve into it.

Yumeko went to Paris, and her parents-in-law went to travel to South Korea, leaving only Kitagawa Hide and the two little ones, Kitagawa Midori and Kitagawa Toru.

After two lifetimes, Kitagawa Hide finally experienced what it means to be a "full-time dad."

The two little ones are growing strong and healthy now. Now they can not only stand with the help of external force, but also call "Dad, Mom".

The seemingly smarter daughter, Midori Kitagawa, can even understand her own name.

Kitagawa Tetsu, who looks a bit silly, can only smile foolishly. Even if you call him Archer ten times, you will only get a response once or twice.

Even so, Jabami Rei, who came specially to help take care of the little ones, would keep calling "Archer" all the time.

It is hard to imagine that this big star who presents herself as a cool goddess to the outside world would have such a maternal side.

Of course, Jaburi Rei only showed her gentle side to the two little guys. When facing Kitagawa Hide, she returned to her indifferent appearance.

Ever since the publication of "Norwegian Wood", Jabami Rei's attitude towards him suddenly changed 180 degrees.

At first, he kept calling him "parasite, parasite" and didn't treat him as a human being at all.

Later, when she learned that he was her idol, Jabami Rei calmed down a little, and sometimes even showed a rare shyness when they met and talked.

By now, she was like a piece of chocolate covered with ice to him, and the sweetness could only be tasted when the ice melted.

As for when the ice will melt, no one knows.

If you think about it carefully, you can feel that Jabami Rei seems to have poured some feelings into this kid Kitagawa Toru.

Kitagawa Hide, who had had a vague feeling about this before, remained silent, thinking that this might be the best ending.

After all, the three of them are not Toru Watanabe, Midori and Naoko, and he doesn't want Jabami Rei to really follow Naoko's path.

It’s actually quite good to let Naoko die in the ending of "Norwegian Wood".

6 month 15 day.

The new issues of "Beichuan" and "Xinwenxiang" were released at the same time.

As a pure literature magazine named after Mr. Beichuan, and the first pillar of Beichuan's entertainment industry, "Beichuan" is now a bit like it is being raised by a stepmother, and has not had Mr. Beichuan's works to support it for several issues in a row.

The editorial departments of Beichuan and Dazhong are separated by only a wall. Recently, we always hear all kinds of cheers coming from Dazhong. The editors of Beichuan are envious and helpless. Since their biological father doesn't love them, they can only run to their biological mother for help.

The biological mother of "Beichuan" is "Wenyi".

Naturally, Shizuko Kawaide was very willing to cooperate with Kitagawa. After receiving the application for assistance, Wen Yi immediately stated that it would publish a joint special issue with Kitagawa, which would be available for sale at the end of June.

Thanks to this wave of marketing, plus the hit TV and film adaptations starring Mayumi Aso and others, Beichuan barely caught up with Xinwenxiang in terms of first-day data, and continued to maintain its position as the third-largest pure literature magazine.

On the side of "New Literary Image", after many ups and downs, "Foolish Love" has finally come to an end.

In the later years, Ichiro Tanizaki was exhausted and found it difficult to concentrate on his creation in prison. In the end, the completion of this work was more like a cut short.

However, thanks to the copycat work of Kitagawa Hide, the final popularity of "The Idiot's Desire" was quite good, and the sales of "Shinbunxiang" also increased a lot, allowing these parasites in Shinchosha and Bungeishunju to successfully eat another wave of corpses.

After the completion of "A Fool's Love", "New Literary Image" will fall into the same embarrassing situation as "Beichuan".

However, the lack of successors in "Xin Wenxiang" is more serious, and while "Beichuan" seems to be overtaken by "Dazhong", which came from behind, in fact, it has more and more new pure literature writers in reserve, and an explosion is only a matter of time.

These two well-known magazines in the industry did not arouse much market response in June.

Readers who are familiar with them continue to buy, while readers who are not familiar with them have no desire to buy.

What everyone is still patiently waiting for is Mr. Kitagawa’s new pure literature book "Tokyo People".

After the last issue of "Wenyi" serialized "Tokyo People", it hit the hearts of countless Tokyo office workers at once. Even though the craze for "Hanzawa Naoki" has not diminished, the fans of "Tokyo People" are still giving it their all.

We waited day after day, day after day, and finally got through the most torturous days. Looking at the calendar on the wall, it was June 6th.

That morning, Umekichi, who set out for Maruzen Marunouchi Bookstore early in the morning, was frightened by the pedestrians along the way.

He came all the way from Kabukicho in Shinjuku District, and it was the first time he saw so many people walking slowly towards a bookstore.

Many of the people in the crowd were middle school and high school students whom he would never meet normally. Among these people, only JKs would appear in Kabukicho at night, and most of them were just nightclub girls wearing JK uniforms, not real JKs. "Are these guys like me and don't have to study today?"

Meggie rode his motorcycle, which was of unknown use, with lightning and sparks flying all the way. With his signature afro and biker outfit, he immediately scared the well-behaved students.

These students would look at him with curiosity and envy. Some of them would look at him with hatred and fear, which was probably because they had been bullied by the thugs in the school.

After reading "Confessions" by Kitagawa Sensei, he no longer wanted to be that kind of bully.

As for the former, before he became a biker gang that could fly and dodge, he also looked at his predecessors in this way.

Carrying a backpack, I walked on the street with the same classmates, and then looked up at the bosozoku flying around, or the hot and spirited girls behind them.

It wasn't until she became that kind of person that Meggie felt it was nothing.

But this time it feels a little different.

As he got closer to the bookstore, he felt more and more uneasy.

It's like a wolf breaking into a sheep's den.

In the past, he would have definitely turned the throttle to let the exhaust pipe emit a fiery breath and sound.

But now, he just wanted to tuck his head into his collar.

Because he felt that he was the only one who didn't fit in here.

Are bikers worthy of buying books in bookstores?

Meggie parked the motorcycle far away, hoping that when she got to the bookstore, the clerk would not ask such questions.

Walking across the sidewalk, Meggie's head shrank even more.

The afro that I used to be proud of has become a burden.

Just as he was thinking about whether to go in quickly to buy the books or simply ask a student to help buy them for him, a clear and familiar voice sounded in his ears.

"Hey~'Cranky Meggie', are you here to buy books too?"

Yumiko has a unique lavender scent on her body, which is different from the cheap perfumes used by those escorts.

She leaned her head closer and looked at the uneasy Meggie with a smile, as if she was looking at a toy.

Meggie almost blurted out a swear word, but luckily she managed to hold it back.

"Uh, you too." He put his hands in his pockets, but there was not a trace of carefreeness.

"Ah, ha, ha, could the rumors be true?! The most violent thug on the block actually has a crush on our lovely Yumiko-chan?"

"Ah, Xiaojiu, don't talk nonsense. Did you see the brass knuckles on his hands? Be careful or I'll blow your little head off with my fist!"

"Wow, no more talking. If he really hits me, then Sister Xin, you have to help me block it!"

The girls' laughter was loud and unbridled, and their oblivious attitude quickly attracted more attention.

There is no way around it. With her youthful beauty, cool clothes and bold words, it is hard for such a young girl not to attract men's attention.

There were two similar girls beside Yumiko.

Meggie knew them. One of them was a girl called "Kukui" called Axin, who was said to be a legendary figure among the bad girls in Kabukicho.

It is rumored that she had slept with 150 different men seven or eight years ago, and she also created a bad girl group called "Falcon Group" with 20 to 30 girls under her command, based in Fukagawa Hachiman in Asakusa.

The other girl is called Jiu, and she works in the same company as Yumiko. She is loved by the office workers because of her petite and cute appearance.

"Yes, I'm here to buy Literature and Art, too.

Thanks to you, I finally saw an interesting novel.

Finally, a bad girl like me can pretend to be an artistic girl! "

Yumiko held Meggie's arm intimately, and Ajiu and Axin beside her laughed even more happily.

Meggie's whole body was shaking.

It's not that he hasn't had contact with girls. A teenager hanging out in the neighborhood would be embarrassed to tell others his name if he didn't have a dozen girlfriends.

But when facing Gongzi, he became shy and introverted unconsciously.

The "Meggie" who had disappeared many years ago seemed to be back.

He scratched his afro in distress, but finally did not let go of the bow.

When this group of bad boys and girls walked into the bookstore, the staff immediately became nervous and concerned.

In the past, when the Juvenile Law had not been changed, these young people would follow the example of Nigo on the other side of the ocean and occasionally break into stores to make purchases for free.

Because of the perfect system of protection for scumbags, they are rarely punished even if the amount of theft is huge.

This makes many shop owners instantly nervous when they see this kind of people.

The current "Juvenile Law" will naturally no longer allow this group of people to be so arrogant, but we still need to take precautions.

Two shop assistants came over, a man and a woman. The tall man was very strong, and if a fight broke out, Meggie had no confidence that she could win.

"What books would you like to buy?" the male clerk kept his eyes on Meggie.

"We want the latest issue of 'Literature and Art', four copies!" Gongzi raised his snow-white fingers and said with a smile.

"Okay, please wait." The male clerk turned around and took down four books of "Literature" from the top of the bookshelf.

Yumiko nudged Meggie's arm gently.

Meggie scratched her head again, then pulled out a few crumpled bills and paid.

"Chenghui, take care!" The male clerk also breathed a sigh of relief.

"Haha, thanks to 'Grumpy Meggie', we won't disturb your tryst~"

Ashin and Ajiu took two copies of "Literature" with a smile, twisted their slender waists and disappeared outside the bookstore.

They left briskly, which made Meggie feel even more embarrassed.

As if noticing his uneasiness, Gongzi hugged his arms tighter.

"Thank you~ These two guys are just like that, don't mind it."

"Oh, it's nothing. Many of my friends are like this too." Meggie clutched the magazine tightly, wondering whether she should ask Gongzi to sit in a secluded coffee shop or tea shop for a while. (End of this chapter)
