I am a literary giant in Europe

Chapter 424 Conversation with JK
"Mercedes-Benz McLaren?"

The sports car roared in and stopped in front of the boxing gym.

Julie and Adrian were in the car, excitedly shouting nonstop.

"Amos, is that a new car you bought?"

Rust and two police officers happened to come out from inside. When they saw Liu Jin's car, their eyes turned red, and they rushed over.

It's been almost a year since I last saw Rust!

It's said that this guy is now a sheriff.

Moreover, he's related to Chloe's brother and is currently very popular in the police force.

"Oh wow, Julie and Adrian are so big now."

He saw two large ones and stopped.

Liu Jin jumped out of the car and then released the two large animals as well.

"Want to try?"

"May I?"

“Hey, Rust, my brother, you’re being too nice to say that to me.”

As he spoke, he tossed the car keys to Rust.

Is Abel inside?

"exist."

"I'm going to see him. Shall we grab a drink together tonight?"

"Haha, I couldn't be happier."

Rust grinned.

He watched Liu Jin lead the two big men inside, then circled the sports car a few times, his fingers tracing the curves of the car body.

"That's fucking beautiful!"

"Rust, who is that?"

The two police officers who came with Rust asked curiously.

"Amos, a writer, you should have heard of him."

"Wow, it's him! Is he practicing boxing here too?"

"He was here many years ago, back when I still wanted to be a boxer."

Rust said this and got into the car.

"That's my brother. If you see him in the future, please take good care of him."

"Sheriff, you must be joking. He doesn't need our help."

I heard he donated ten police cars to the police station last year?

"Yes, there is one this year too... He donates 200,000 euros to the police station every year, and he's a friend of our boss."

As he spoke, he waved his hand, "Get in the car, I'll take you for a spin."

The two policemen grinned excitedly and jumped into the sports car.

……

"Amos, what brings you here today?"

"Let's talk in the office."

Liu Jin led the dog and Abel into the office.

Seeing that no one else was around, she tossed her handbag to Abel.

"100,000 euros, cash, all in 20-euro receipts, very clean."

"Marde, we're doing a normal business deal. Do we have to make it sound like a gang meeting?"

"Haha, I watched a cop movie all night yesterday."

"Don't worry, I've already spoken to Abdul of the Berber gang, and he'll have someone keep an eye on those guys."

“Abdul, I remember before…”

"You mean the Monacoese? Dead!"

"what?"

"Abdul is an Algerian who came here in the latter half of last year."

Very wealthy, and well-connected… This year, the Berbers and Monegasques clashed, and the Monegasques lost and left Toulouse.”

"You're so cold-blooded. Weren't you all brotherly with those Monacoans before?"

Abel rolled his eyes. "I'm a combat coach, not a gangster. I only associate with whoever is a boss, and I don't need to remember those who are dead. Of course, if the Monegasques come back in the future, I'll still be on good terms with them."

I really don't understand how someone with a 37.5 degree mouth could say such cold-hearted things.

However, this is normal.

Abel was never a gang member.

His police affiliation and his connections with gang members were also ways for him to survive.

There were no conflicts of interest among them, and Abel would occasionally find them some work to earn some money...

Gang members love people like him the most.

Similarly, the people I least want to offend are people like him.

Abel put the money away, picked up the newspaper, and shook it twice.

"Hey, this looks familiar."

Liu Jin glanced at it; it was the Liberation Daily.

"What a pointless hype. Let's see how they handle it."

"Hype?"

"A writer, a singer, is just fucking copying the story of me and Alizee."

"writer?"

Abel picked up the newspaper, glanced at it, and couldn't help but chuckle.

“He can’t replicate that. Jennifer isn’t Alizee… By the way, Alizee has been resting for over a year. It’s time to get back to work.”

"You're asking me? I'm not Universal Music."

"You're a songwriter, you idiom! Hurry up and write some awesome new songs for Ali."

Last year's "Levitating" was pretty good.

"You think you can just write it whenever you want?" Liu Jin said, half-laughing and half-crying, "You need inspiration."

"For others, inspiration is... but for you..."

Abel looked at him with disdain, "You're really something now, acting and writing books."

"You've met more and more people, and you've even hooked up with Shakira... You're such a damn French scumbag, a heartless bastard."

"Get out of here!" The French scumbag and the French heartless man were brought up by the media last year.

Yes, it's because of Heidi Klum.

But you probably don't know that I also won over your favorite doll, Melissa!
Thinking of this, Liu Jin couldn't help but smile.

Abel squinted, suddenly stood up, slumped onto the table, and roared, "Did you ruin some French girl again?"

"no!"

Liu Jin quickly shook his head, indicating his denial.

……

In the evening, I had dinner with Abel, Rust and the others.

Because of his McLaren sports car, Rust was adamant about not letting Liu Jin drink alcohol.

"Don't drink too much and break my baby."

"That's my car, how did it become your treasure?"

"I tried it, and that's mine."

A group of older men couldn't help but burst into laughter.

After finishing their meal, as they were leaving, Liu Jin pulled Rust aside.

“I moved!”

"what?"

"In the Saint-Étienne neighborhood..."

"I understand. I'll arrange for more patrols to be conducted there later."

"Thanks, Rust!"

"Hehe, remember to treat me to your 1990 Lewis Coke sometime. I'm tempted by what you just said."

Louis Coque is a wine from the Leroy Winery.

After Rust's boxing dreams were shattered, he has given up.

He began to enjoy life.

Liu Jin naturally wouldn't refuse.

The two parted ways at the restaurant entrance, and Liu Jin took the two large animals home.

Alizee is back and is fighting with Eva.

Maybe it's because its name is Eva; when the person and the cat are together, they always end up fighting.

Liu Jin chatted with Alizee for a while before going upstairs to work.

He first wrote a thank-you letter, expressing his gratitude to J.K. Rowling for her previous support in The Times.

This letter will be published in L'Humanité, the official newspaper of the French Communist Party.

The Humanitarian Daily is now Liu Jin's official voice. Although he could choose other newspapers, he has a greater affinity for the Humanitarian Daily.

Last year, the sales of the Humanitarian Daily surged to 380,000 copies due to the serialization of "A Bite of China".

Therefore, Liu Jin became a hot commodity in the eyes of the Humanitarian Newspaper, and the Humanitarian Newspaper would publish any article by Liu Jin as soon as possible.

After finishing the thank-you letter, I sent it to the editor of the Humanitarian Daily.

Liu Jin sat in front of the computer, his fingers tapping the desktop unconsciously.

He felt that he could find some interesting points of action through J.K. Rowling's letter.

He is a bestselling author.

J.K. Rowling is also a bestselling author.

He is a Pulitzer Prize winner.

J.K. Rowling is the mother of Harry Potter.

I have a feeling that I can do something about it...

Exchanges between writers?
Liu Jin's gaze fell on the bookshelf.

On the bookshelf sat a newly opened copy of "84 Charing Cross Road," and an interesting thought arose in his mind.

He reached out and grabbed the phone.

I checked the time; it was not yet ten o'clock, so I dialed Mela's number.

"Damn Liu, if you don't have something important to say, I'll kill you."

"It's not even ten o'clock yet, what's wrong?"

"You can't control it!"

At that moment, Chloe's voice came through the phone.

"Darling, whose phone is that?"

"It's Liu!"

"Let him die!"

Those two damn lesbians.

Liu Jin immediately realized what was happening.

However, we still need to talk about serious matters.

He explained his idea to Mela.

"I hope to increase the exposure of J.K. Rowling and me through this method."

You know, I don't like to be in the public eye, but I don't mind exchanging ideas with another writer through this kind of literary gathering.

We can increase external attention to us by discussing literature and stories.

"Hmm, like at 84 Charing Cross Road... Do you think J.K. Rowling would agree to this approach?"

Commonly known as a combination.

It's like the combination of the Third Young Master and Dancing back then.

We discuss our stories, leverage each other's fame to enhance one another, and progress together.

Liu Jin's fame is already sufficient.

And J.K. Rowling, needless to say...

The two developed a mutually beneficial relationship through written communication, which also served as a form of promotion.

Mela remained silent!

After a moment's consideration, she said, "I will talk to Rowling's agent, and if they agree with this approach, I think it will be a win-win situation."

Liu, well done!
