I am a literary giant in Europe

Chapter 44: Eight Hundred Thousand Yuan in Ten Days (Congratulations and Get Rich!!!)
Chloe's brother-in-law is cheating!

So Chloe was in a bad mood.

Meila explained to Liu Jin via text message.

Chloe has a good relationship with her sister, and this time she went to Paris to help her sister deal with this matter.

Her sister is a prosecutor at the Paris District Attorney's Office.

Therefore, her brother-in-law's ending is likely to be very tragic.

Chloë's father is the chairman of the board of directors of the Paris Bar Association.

Her mother is a barrister.

She also has a brother who seems to be the deputy chief of the police department in the 13th arrondissement of Paris.

Two generations of legal professionals shine.

Liu Jin couldn't understand why her brother-in-law dared to cheat on her.
……

On Sunday, Liu Jin took Yang Dongqi, Dadong and Sun Yue to the used car market.

There are a lot of old cars here, and they are very cheap.

But Liu Jin couldn't buy it because he didn't have a French driver's license.

So after looking around, he chose a scooter.

The Peugeot Speedfight series is a classic model among French motorcycle brands. (Picture)

It was very cheap, only 1,800 francs.

But Dadong still thinks it’s expensive!

"Add another 1,200 and you can buy Ma Jie's car."

"Ma Jie?"

Liu Jin looked at Dadong in confusion.

Yang Dongqi said, "He met a new friend, an international student from Hubei Province. But he's not from our school. He's a graduate of the Second University and stayed here."

I remembered!

There is such a person.

He has a good relationship with Dadong, but is not familiar with Liu Jin.

He plays closer with Ma Jun and the others.

However, Ma Jie and Ma Jun have no blood relationship.

His car...

Well, it’s the prototype of the Citroën Fukang, an 18th-hand car, but Ma Jie maintained it well.

According to Majie himself, his car cost 3,000 francs.

It can run, there is no air conditioning, no radio, but it can run.

Ma Jie’s biggest wish at that time was to buy a new car.

He took Dadong and Liu Jin to look at cars several times. The one that attracted them the most was a Peugeot seven-seater commercial vehicle, a bullet-shaped model, which was very cool.

Unfortunately, the asking price for the 85% new car was 79,000 francs.

Ma Jie didn't dare ask any more questions.

From this we can see that although Ma Jie stayed in France, he was not particularly happy.

"I don't care, I just like this one."

Liu Jin paid the money happily and got on the bike.

Yang Dongqi and Sun Yue both looked at him with envy.

"Yueyue, don't be jealous. I'll take you to school from now on!"

"Brother Jin is the best!"

Sun Yue's face was full of smiles.

Yang Dongqi took Dadong and left silently.

For some reason, he thought of the eighteen-hand women's bicycle with a basket parked against the wall outside the apartment building.

……

Farne responded on Monday.

He accepted the bet proposed by Liu Jin and Ma Lian.

On the same day, Le Monde published the news that Liu Jin signed a letter of authorization at the Toulouse Magnon law firm.

The next day, Liberation's Paris headquarters received a notice from the Paris Magnon law firm and signed an agreement.

On Wednesday, Marlene's lawyer also came to the Liberation Daily headquarters and signed an agreement with Farne.

A series of reports also made the news about Alice, Liu Jin and the Liberation Daily the talk of countless people.

Time passes silently.

In the blink of an eye, it was December.

New news continued to emerge, and people's attention began to shift away from Liu Jin.

But no one expected that on December 11nd, Le Figaro would suddenly break the news: Alizee's debut album, "Gastronomy," had sold 21 copies in just ten days since its November st release, and word of mouth was incredibly positive. These copies were the highest in France.

In fact, there shouldn’t be so many.

But the news created by Liu Jin has a natural connection with Alijie.

Later, Marlene joined, although she was using the name of Marlene, but everyone secretly guessed that it was Alice who was gambling.

Eight hundred thousand records in ten days is almost the limit.

However, on the next day, December 3rd, L'Humanité suddenly reported that the work "Le Fabuleux Destin d'Amelie Poulain" (Angel Amelie) by Chinese writer Amos, also known as Liujin, would be launched on December 12th.

Available in bookstores across France!
I am finally coming!
The fun that the French have been waiting for for several days is finally about to begin.

Whether it is the Chinese who lose 100,000 francs or Farnet who runs naked at midnight, I believe the answer will be clear soon.

For a time, the sales of Alizee's records and the bet between Liu Jin and Farne became news that all radio stations rushed to report.

Several major French talk shows have also discussed this topic.

Among them, the program On n'est pas couche, which had the highest ratings, caused the greatest sensation.

reason?

The guest that night accidentally said a word that he shouldn't have said.

Niakoue!

The original meaning of this word is farmer.

Originally, it was a discriminatory term against Vietnamese people.

Later, the word "farmer" was gradually transferred to the Chinese and became a discriminatory word against Chinese people.

The host, Laurent (not the producer of Alizee Music), reacted quickly, using the excuse of "joking" to cover it up. The guest also quickly realized the situation and said humorously, "It was just a joke. I hope Chinese people can take a joke."

The implication is: If you care about it, you can't take a joke!

When Liu Jin learned about it, he did not get angry.

Because the next day was the day when "Amelie" was released.

Liu Jin was not in a hurry. He just remembered the name of the guest and the host Laurent.

"Liu, don't take that kind of people too seriously. They just make a living by talking nonsense."

Liu Jin smiled slightly and said, "They make a living by talking, and I fight with my pen.

Don't worry, I will fight back in my own way. I've already remembered Mr. Florian..."

"liu..."

"It's okay. Selling books is more important."

After Liu Jin finished speaking, he hung up the phone.

That day happened to be Monday.

Liu Jin found Teacher Julie and asked for leave again.

"Is this for publicity?"

"of course not!"

Liu Jin said, "I just have a manuscript to finish, so it will take two or three days."

"Didn't you just finish a book? Why are you finishing it again?"

"A short story, something that takes two or three days."

"Okay, I don't quite understand your writers' affairs, but since you're asking for leave, I won't stop you. How many days?"

"Three days!"

"Okay, then three days."

Liu Jin thanked him and turned to walk out.

Just as he was about to leave, Julie suddenly called him.

"Amos, you have to believe that there are many good people in France. Don't take some clowns too seriously."

Liu Jin turned around and smiled at Teacher Julie.

"Thank you, Teacher Julie."

Under Teacher Julie's worried gaze, Liu Jin walked out of the office.

He did not go to the library, but strolled alone to a cafe on Rue Lafayette.

It's very quiet here.

He found a seat in the corner and ordered a cup of coffee.

Then, I opened my notebook, then the document, and sat there, staring blankly.

After a long time, he raised his hand and tapped the keyboard, writing a line of text on the document.

Reverie de Florian (Florian's Daydream).

(This is a script I left behind after registering as a member of the Writers Guild when I went to the United States in 2013.

It's been 12 years and no one cares about it. I guess it's too bad.

However, I prefer to call this script "Dark Daydream" to commemorate my lost dream of being a screenwriter, hahaha.)
