I am a literary giant in Europe

Chapter 158 New Classmates (45)

The impact of 911/ on the world continues to ferment.

But for Liu Jin, who was far away in Europe, the only impact was the sharp drop in the Wall Street stock market, as he and Dlasco had expected.

Financial markets were volatile and stock prices fell across the board.

Apple's stock price fell to $1.3 on Friday, September th.

Dlasco had been paying close attention and acted quickly. In a short period of time, the $430 million was transferred and converted into million shares.

"Amos, in the short term, Apple is unlikely to rebound. You should be prepared to hold on to it for the long term."

"Ha, I wanted to hold it long-term from the beginning."

After inspecting the stocks, Liu Jin discovered a problem.

“Why are there only 430 million shares?”

“There’s no way, the price of 1.3 only lasted for an hour, and then it started to increase slightly.

It feels like there are other people who are absorbing it. You must be more than just an Apple fan. Maybe there are other people who are acquiring it. "

"Okay, that's it."

It's a very normal thing!
There are so many smart people in this world.

He is not the only one who is optimistic about Boss Qiao.

In fact, if Liu Jin didn’t have the memory of his previous life, he might not be optimistic.

There are still capable people in this world!
For example, Arthur Levinson, and those financial tycoons hiding behind the scenes!
This incident also reminded Liu Jin that he should never underestimate the power of this time and space...

In Liu Jin's view, this time and space is disordered.

But for the indigenous people, the world still runs according to its original rules, silently and quietly.

……

However, the 911/ incident had an impact on more than just financial markets.

It also had an impact on the cultural market.

"The Father," which originally topped the weekly charts, saw its sales plummet in the past week.

It dropped from 80,000 copies to 43,000 copies.

This is true not just for "Father," but for all books.

The only book that achieved reverse growth was "France and the French".

This is a historical work, a large quarto volume, totaling 2,400 pages.

It records the history of France from the time of King Claudius of the Franks to the year 2000.

Its form is more like a daily diary and is very complicated.

But the information is extremely rich!

It is a very excellent historical work.

Liu Jin also bought a set.

Yes, one set.

The price is much more expensive than "Father", 2300 francs per set.

In the future, after the promotion of the euro, the price of this set of books will rise to 480 euros.

All in all, Liu Jin can be said to have found a bargain!

In this history book that is like the Bible, you can go back and forth and repeatedly encounter those historical figures, events, ideas, political parties...

Ordinary people will find it boring and tedious.

But it is indeed a good book!
In addition, the sales of "Amelie" fell out of the top ten and is currently ranked twelfth.

Sales are down to just a few thousand copies per week.

However, the overseas version is still growing...

"Little Sweethearts" is very stable and still ranks tenth.

As for sales volume, it’s around 10,000 copies.

The work that replaced "Angel" was "The Perseverance of the Gardener" by John le Carré, a master of British spy novels.

This is an old writer, nearly seventy years old.

"The Gardener's Perseverance" is his eighteenth work and has a very stable readership.

Liu Jin also bought this book.

……

Everything is changing, yet nothing seems to have changed.

School is officially open!

On Monday, Liu Jin strolled into the international class classroom.

Jimmy ran over first, and after a complicated and tedious black ceremony, Liu Jin asked with concern, "Is everything okay at home?"

"Fortunately, my home is in the Bronx, not Manhattan."

"That's good!"

Liu Jin and Jimmy exchanged greetings and glanced across the classroom.

International class, a total of seventeen people.

Including Jimmy, three Lighthouse people, two men and one woman.

Jimmy is from the East Coast, and the other two are from the West Coast, one from Seattle and the other from San Francisco.

The girl's name is Zoe, she is of American and Korean descent and is from San Francisco; the boy's name is Harper, Harper Claus, and he is from Seattle.

Liu Jin is more familiar with Klaus, but with Zoe...

The unique genes of Koreans made her not particularly fond of Liu Jin, a celebrity from China.

However, we had no previous interactions, so we didn't interfere with each other.

Liu Jin couldn't guarantee what it would be like in a classroom now.

In addition, there are seven European students, from Germany, the United Kingdom and Sweden; three Southeast Asian students, one from Singapore and two from Malaysia; one Indian student, two African students and one Argentinian girl.

Now add six Chinese people to the list.

It is a truly international class!
At this time, Yang Dongqi and Sun Yue were sitting together, and Selena was chatting with two British students.

Ma Jun and Zhang Pei sat behind Yang Dongqi and the other man, whispering something.

"Martina!"

Liu Jin waved at the Argentinian girl.

He spoke in Spanish.

"I haven't seen you for a summer vacation, and you look beautiful again!"

"Put away your sweet talk, damn Amos." "I didn't provoke you."

"But you abandoned Falabella."

Martina is Argentinian, and Falabella...that is, Deborah, is Brazilian.

The two are both from South America and have a good relationship.

Liu Jin slid over and sat next to Martina. "Please, I'm the one who was abandoned."

"Humph, but there are all kinds of rumors about you."

Sophie Marceau, Alizee, and Adjani…

I guess there will be another Eva Green added in the future.

Well, except for Sophie Marceau, they are all innocent.

Adjani still has her charm, but...

Liu Jin didn't mind the age difference, but it was too big. If Ajani could be 20 years younger, Liu Jin wouldn't mind.

"Ms. Alcorta, I feel like you're jealous!"

"Nonsense!"

Martina couldn't help but hit Liu Jin and suddenly burst into giggles.

Behind her, Brian, a foreign student from the UK, also hit Liu Jin.

"Amos, don't hook up with my girlfriend!"

"Haha, bro, long time no see!"

Brian, laughed too!
"What a playboy."

Katherine Tee from Po County couldn't help but murmur softly.

Catherine Tee, whose Chinese name is Zheng Hui.

Tee means Zheng, and his ancestral home seems to be Meizhou.

Liu Jin knew her when the Huaguo class was still there.

But she is very proud!

Very proud of the Chinese people...

But they are very flattering and humble to Indians, Malaysians and blacks.

It seems like everyone there is like this. They're Chinese, but they're extremely strict with people of Chinese descent, swearing by the rule of law. But in reality, those laws are often quite weak when it comes to other Chinese people.

Liu Jin has argued with her several times.

After glancing at Zheng Hui, Liu Jin ignored her.

He smiled and nudged Martina with his elbow, saying softly, "Your boyfriend is jealous."

"Amos, shut up!"

"OK!"

Martina is very beautiful, but a little short and not fierce...

It doesn't fit his aesthetic.

But it's still okay to tease a little.

Just at this moment, the teacher came in.

"Bonjour, hello everyone."

"Bonjour, Mr. Guiye."

"Ou La La, we have new friends this school year. Let us welcome the students from the Chinese class. We will have classes together in the future."

Elodie Guillet, a French woman with a very gentle personality.

She is in her early forties, wears a pair of black-framed glasses, and always has a smile on her face.

"Well, let me introduce myself first... First, this is a French class, and everyone will be speaking French."

"no problem!"

Liu Jin sat next to Martina and responded loudly.

"Amos, shut up!"

Elodie immediately said, "Everyone here knows you, no need to introduce yourself."

Why do I feel like everyone is targeting me?

Yang Dongqi took the lead in introducing himself. His French was much more fluent than last year.

"Hey, Martina, why do I feel like Teacher Guiye is not very happy with me?"

"It's all because of you... so many scandals, and Deborah. Teacher Jiye likes Deborah very much."

"It's really not me who abandoned her."

"I know." Martina said quickly in Spanish, "But it's your fault for causing so many scandals."

"That means I'm popular."

"cut!"

After the exchange, Liu Jin was slapped in the face.

At the same time, there were two fiery gazes from Brian behind him.

Everyone has made progress in one summer vacation.

There is no need to talk about Yang Dongqi. Selena is the type who can talk but not write, so there is no problem with that.

Ma Jun...

I have made a lot of progress, but I have a slight Hubei accent.

Zhang Pei, okay.

It was Sun Yue who surprised Liu Jin because he spoke French very fluently.

"Old Yang, what's going on?"

"I met a girl while working during the summer vacation."

"Yes, sure!"

"I'm surprised too!"

At this time, Sun Yue had finished his introduction and sat down aside.

Teacher Jiye coughed twice and said, "Then, let's start the class!"
