Chapter 532 Blind Man
Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince was dethroned in its third week of release by Night at the Museum.

Rowling found this unacceptable!
Great Britain, but that's her hometown.

Despite Harry Potter's victories in France, the Netherlands, Greece, Cyprus, Austria, Belgium, and Sweden, it couldn't compare to the impact of Great Britain's fall.

Rowling, who was on vacation in Switzerland, returned to London on Wednesday.

Then, five consecutive days of autograph sessions...

Tuesday, August 9th.

The sales rankings for the fourth week are out.

Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince has returned to the top of the British bestseller list.

However, from the fourth to the fifth, the country was ruled by Liu Jin.

Second place remains Night at the Museum.

The third place goes to the later-rising Nemo 1/2.

The fourth book is "The Da Vinci Code," which had been hovering around tenth place before jumping to fourth last week.

The fifth place is still Liu Jin's work.

Life Is Beautiful!
The Hunger Games didn't make the top ten; it was in eleventh place, only 320 books behind the tenth-place game.

Rowling won!

However, the British media were not so happy.

It feels like winning is more painful than losing!
……

After entering August, Liu Jin stopped paying attention to the rankings.

Leslie Cheung and Anita Mui have returned to Hong Kong.

Anita Mui needed to have a medical check-up, while Leslie Cheung needed to cooperate with the film "The Shadow" to prepare for its premiere in China.

The premiere of "Life Is Beautiful" is just around the corner.

Ren Dong arranged the premiere at the Great Hall of the People, determined not to let "Life Is Beautiful" lose out to "Hero" in terms of prestige.

China Film Group provided tremendous support in this regard.

Liu Jin and Zhang Manyu flew to Paris.

The premiere of Gaumont was held at the Grand Rex cinema.

Located in the 2nd arrondissement of Paris, this cinema is the largest in France and one of the largest screening rooms in Europe.

Juliette Binoche was the main host of the premiere.

As Binoche's most loyal fan, Maggie Cheung didn't want to go to America, so she stayed in Paris.

Liu Jin exchanged views with Gao Meng and Binoche.

After confirming that there were no problems, they departed for Los Angeles on August 12.

In America, Harvey ultimately secured a 2500-screen opening for "Life Is Beautiful".

This is not easy!
Despite the hidden obstacles from his team, Harvey definitely did his best to achieve this number of goals.

Of course, the competition between Liu Jin and Rowling in book sales over the past month also plays a role.

So hot!
Ever since the concept of the Rowling Axis and the Amos Alliance was introduced, America has been thrown into chaos.

If you turn on the TV, you'll see cultural elites from all walks of life discussing this matter.

America's writer was both wailing and enthusiastic.

Moreover, as time went on, many people became even more excited after watching several of the two artists' works.

Praise, criticism.

Disdain, fervent praise!
In any case, every discussion inevitably leads to conflict.

At the same time, the novel "Assassination of the Emperor," published in conjunction with the upcoming release of "Life Is Beautiful," has also attracted a lot of attention.

David Lynch, who was preparing for "Inland Empire," was asked about this while participating in a cultural program.

"The Emperor is the spiritual symbol of ordinary people."

I do not believe that he was completely unaware of the aggression and crimes committed by the Japanese during World War II against China.

And as Amos said, Adolf Hitler was purged.

Why didn't he?

This was the biggest blunder among Arthur's so-called achievements.

“David, there is no conclusive evidence as to whether Xiao Rizi committed any crimes in China…”

"Peter, shut up!"

The sins of this petty person are right there, why don't you open your eyes and see? Go to China for a visit, or read Iris Shun-Ru Chang's *The Rape of Nanking*... Fuck you, you can't be blind yourself and expect everyone else to be blind too. What you said disgusts me.

Peter, full name Peter Curran.

In 1995, this guy made a documentary about nuclear bombs called "The Dust of the Nuclear Bomb".

Its original intention was to smear China, using malicious editing techniques and adding unsettling background music to create the impression that the Chinese government disregards human life.

result……

It's definitely a hit!
But it's the opposite.

His technique is superb, his methods are brilliant.

It vividly demonstrates the deterrent power of China's nuclear tests, to the point that most people, after watching it, believe that they should get along well with the Chinese and compete peacefully.

It's probably like the AFP photo.

They are trying to smear China with all sorts of grotesque images.

Unexpectedly, it demonstrated the formidable power of the Chinese military to the fullest extent, to the point that people from various countries felt fear.

Similarly, AFP's grotesque scenes are very popular among Chinese people.

Most Chinese people believe that the photographers were skilled and captured the greatest image of Chinese soldiers.

Peter Curran got angry and got into a fight with David Lynch.

Then, that program became a hit that day. Following this, many other programs were inspired, with hosts stirring up trouble, as the public wanted to see intellectuals swearing and then getting into fights.

Liu Jin heard about this after arriving in Los Angeles.

So when a reporter interviewed him at the airport entrance, he couldn't help but laugh and say, "We're all cultured people, fighting is bad... By the way, did David win or lose?"

"Lost!"

“I told you, David, you need to work out.”

Stop messing around with your scripts all day and come box with me. Perfect timing, I've arranged to train with Mr. Tyson for a week after the promotions are over. You should come too… so you don't get beaten up by a blind guy on TV.”

He is clearly a supporter of David Lynch.

At the same time, I agree with his statement: Peter Culan is fucking blind.

Peter has expressed his disdain for the Chinese on various occasions.

Similarly, Liu Jin didn't even bother to mention his name, simply referring to him as "the blind man."

You should know that Liu Jin is currently very popular in America.

His war with J.K. Rowling was raging, attracting the attention of countless Americans.

His casual remark had an undeniable influence.

That evening, during a program, when the host talked about Peter Curran, he used Liu Jin's original words, "Blind Man," which immediately angered Peter, who started arguing with the host on the spot. The two even got into a physical fight in the live broadcast studio.

At the end of the program, Peter Curran angrily denounced Liu Jin as an "impolite Chinese."

He also said he wanted to duel with Liu Jin.

On the morning of August 13th, as Liu Jin left the hotel and Harvey prepared to attend the recording of a program, a reporter asked, "Amos, Director Peter Kuran said yesterday that you are an impolite Chinese and challenged you to a duel."

He said, "Chinese people are all spineless. What's your opinion?"

"Who?"

“Peter Culan”.

"Who?"

The reporter realized what was happening and laughed, "BlindMan."

"Him? When and where? I'm available anytime..."

Also, it's best if he responds before I leave America, since I'm a student and I have to go back to school. I don't want him to come back after I've left. Bro, you know, I'm not short of money and I don't care about plane tickets, but I'm a student.

Also, have him bring his mother along.

"why?"

"That way, if he loses, he can go to his mother and cry."

Harvey Weinstein stood aside, secretly amazed.

After the two got into the car, he couldn't help but say, "Amos, I have never seen a Chinese person as venomous as you."

"Look, now you've seen it!"

Liu Jin said with a smile.

"You and Yao are two extremes."

He's too humble, while you... give me the impression of a violent maniac.

"No, no, no, my dear Harvey, I'm not a violent maniac, this is Tit for Tat."

This is a slang term.

It means "exchanging a tit for a tit," which is the Chinese proverb "an eye for an eye."

Harvey laughed heartily, “I like this kind of personality. Americans prefer ‘Tit for Tat’ to ‘tomato’.”

Liu Jin smiled slightly.

The recording went smoothly that day.

In addition to Liu Jin, the show also invited Tobey Maguire and Naomi Watts.

Naomi will have many films released this year.

At the beginning of the year, her starring role in "The Ring 2" was released, and in October, a thriller/suspense film she co-starred in with Ewan McGregor, "Stay," will be released. However, the invitation she received today was actually due to the backing of the production company of another film. That's right, it's the one where they shoot down planes in the Empire State Building, "King Kong."

Naomi, Liu Jin, and David Lynch have a good relationship.

Moreover, she was also rumored to have had an affair with Liu Jin.

During the recording of the program, the host suddenly received a message and asked, just like the reporter Liu Jin had encountered earlier that day, "Amos, I heard you accepted Peter Curran's challenge?"

He winked at Liu Jin.

This guy's trying to cause trouble!
But I really like it...

Liu Jin was taken aback. "Who?"

Just as Naomi was about to introduce Liu Jin, Toby Maguire stopped her.

He just saw the host wink.

"Peter Kurland, a director, he..."

"Who?"

"Forehead……"

Tobey Maguire realized what was happening.

He said in a very serious tone, "BlindMan."

"He!"

Liu Jin looked enlightened.

Naomi understood at that moment and couldn't help but cover her mouth, bursting into laughter.
