I am a literary giant in Europe

Chapter 455 Gruissan

Chapter 455 Returning to Gryzan...

Let's forget about singing!
I'll never go into singing in my lifetime.

People should have self-awareness...

However, Anita Mui was just saying that; her health condition seemed much better than at the end of last year, but she was not fully recovered.

Liu Binglin called Liu Jin and talked about Mei Gu's matter.

It only slows the spread of cancer cells, not cures them.

"Her body was like a room riddled with holes, on the verge of collapsing at any moment."

Think less about unhappy things and more about happy things. Eat more good food, pay attention to emotional stability, and exercise more; maybe you can stick to this for longer. But how long exactly? I really can't give a definite date.

Liu Binglin is an expert in both traditional Chinese and Western medicine.

In fact, Europeans and Americans value traditional Chinese medicine quite a bit and have given it a lot of support.

Liu Binglin is considered one of the most outstanding experts in both traditional Chinese and Western medicine in France.

Since he said that, Liu Jin understood!
Should we find a better doctor than Liu Binglin?
It's not impossible, but the result would probably be the same.

……

And so, Liu Jin stayed in the hospital for ten days.

During this time, his mother called and asked him to return to China for medical treatment.

But Liu Jin refused!

What's there to treat with a penetrating wound?
He could have been discharged on the same day he was admitted, but he stayed in the hospital to cooperate with the media campaign.

Ali of the Tunisian gang has been arrested!

At first he said that someone instructed him, but he quickly changed his story.

"I just couldn't stand it. How could a Chinese person earn so much money in France?"
And I didn't intend to kill him; I just wanted to teach him a lesson, to let him know that he must follow the rules in Paris.

The moment those words were spoken, their nature changed.

The suspicion of a romantic relationship was cleared, and in its place came the local gang's jealousy of Lau Chun.

The previously intense criticism of the "small life" has suddenly subsided considerably.

Liu Jin knew that there was little point in continuing to stay in the hospital!
Little Life has made its move.

Moreover, they were very decisive.

It probably cost a lot of money.

Just like how they dealt with Iris Chang, they paid money to make her works disappear silently from the North American book market.

"Ms. Elena helped inquire, and it's true that major media outlets have received word of this and have cancelled their coverage of the matter."

"Well, there's nothing we can do about it. We're living comfortably!"

It really is like that old Chinese saying: money makes the world go round.

Look at those foreign devils, aren't they just grinding away at their daily lives?

Will future publications be affected?

"No, that won't happen... This incident will cause your work's sales to skyrocket."

The books *The Girl Who Plays with Fire* and *Inception* have seen a surge in reader demand. In Chicago, sales surpassed 300,000 copies in the past week and continue to rise. Currently, it seems that as long as you keep publishing, publishers will flock to you.

Yesterday, Hachette's editor-in-chief invited me to dinner and offered to order your next book.

"Lower part?"

Liu Jin thought for a moment and said, "The next work has already been reserved by a scholar, let's talk about it later."

Mela was curious when she heard this.

What story will you write in your next book?

Liu Jin laughed and said, "The Hunger Games has three parts."

After the Hunger Games are over, I'm going to write *The Assassination of the Emperor*. Ask Hachette if he's interested in taking a commission.

"Haha, I'll contact them."

Singer currently publishes about twenty books a year.

As long as Liu Jin is around, there's no worry about a lack of works, so he doesn't really care about one or two books.

"The Assassination of the Emperor" is clearly a revenge film directed at the assassination attempt.

Submitting it to Singer Publishing is certainly possible, but it definitely won't meet the Hachette Group's requirements... It all depends on whether Hachette is willing to take on the book. If they aren't, Liu Jin will push the book to scholars or HarperCollins.

In short, Hachette was just one of his many options.

……

On that day, Liu Jin completed the discharge procedures.

He first returned to Ma Hai's residence and picked up the three men.

Speaking of which, the three of them were really unlucky.

I had planned to accompany Liu Jin on a trip, and maybe even go abroad for a bit, but instead we encountered a shooting incident.

The three of them have been locked up at home and are about to get moldy!

Fortunately, Chloe remembered them and came back every day to feed them, then took Julie and Adrian out for a walk.

Otherwise, you'd suffocate from holding it in.

Now we can finally go back!

But the three of them seemed to still be arguing with Liu Jin for a long time before finally getting into the car reluctantly.

"Back to Saint-Étienne?"

"Forget it, I'll probably be harassed by reporters when I get back." Liu Jin thought for a moment and said, "Let's go to Grüsang, it'll be a peaceful place."

"it is good!"

Genevieve sat in the driver's seat and started the car.

……

Mela and the others didn't rush back.

There are still some things to be dealt with afterwards.

Most importantly, they want to wait for the first-week sales figures for "The Girl Who Plays with Fire" and "Inception".

The impact of the shooting is gradually fading.

Although some tabloids are still investigating, it's no longer of any real significance.

Ali took all the blame, leaving the Paris police with no choice but to accept it.

Most likely, Alibaba will be sentenced to three to five years in prison... and that's all!
After all, Liu Jin didn't die; it was an attempted murder.

Anyway, European law is just like that... You can call it rule of law, but it's full of loopholes; but you can't say it's not rule of law either, since the laws are there for show. In short, it's quite complicated.

After learning that Ali would take the blame, Liu Jin had already guessed the outcome.

Can one person take on an entire nation?
too difficult!
It was fortunate that he kept America and the Jews in check and didn't touch their interests, otherwise he would have been shot eight times in the back and committed suicide in no time.

He never overestimated his own abilities!

It can only be operated within a limited space.

Therefore, entrusting "The Eye of the Beast" to Spielberg seems to be a very good decision.

With Spielberg's global influence...

If he had directed this film, it might have been even better than Kubrick's.

But no rush!
It's too early to sell the copyright now.

I reckon many people are also waiting for the outcome of "Life Is Beautiful".

If Life Is Beautiful is a huge success, then The Eye of the Beast may have an even greater impact.

Genevieve drove along the highway at high speed.

Liu Jin sat in the back of the car, quietly pondering a solution.

The shooting failed, but life won't end there.

But let them fire a second time?

I imagine they also have their concerns.

Therefore, it is highly likely that they will launch a large-scale smear campaign against Liu Jin.

But how do you smear someone?
Liu Jin lit a cigarette and fell into deep thought.

……

The distance from Paris to Gruysand is about 600 kilometers.

The journey to Toulouse via the highway takes five hours.

Then, after exiting the highway, we drove for an hour and a half on the national road... and as night fell, the RV successfully entered the Gruson Estate.

The housekeeper at the Château de Grüssant has been notified.

When Liu Jin arrived, the manor was brightly lit and all the rooms were clean.

The cook also prepared a very distinctive local dinner.

When Liu Jin got out of the car with the three big guys, he stood at the entrance of the stone house and couldn't help but open his arms and take a deep breath of fresh air.

In July, the temperature in southern France is scorching.

But Gryusan is very cool.

The sea breeze blowing from the Mediterranean carried a moist, salty scent, rushing into my brain through my nostrils and instantly making me much more awake.

This was also the first time Liu Jin had come alone since buying the manor.

The three of them have been here many times and are very familiar with this place.

Eva went straight up the stairs, found Liu Jin's bedroom, and jumped onto the windowsill, curling up into a ball.

Julie and Adrian, on the other hand, were playing and frolicking happily on the lawn.

"Boss, if you're tired, you should get some rest."

The doctor also told me not to overwork myself.

"I see!"

Liu Jin smiled and nodded, picked up his backpack, and went upstairs.

With the help of the butler, Genevieve unloaded her luggage from the van and carried it into the building.

This place is pretty good!

Genevieve carried a travel bag from the car into the house.

The boss knows how to enjoy life!
She carried the travel bag into the room, opened it, took out various firearms, and placed them on the table.
