I am a literary giant in Europe

Chapter 799 Daily life
After a long talk with Secretary General Magnon, it was already December 18th.

AA and Camille have arrived in the capital.

Liu Jin couldn't delay any longer; his daughter was the most important thing.

Just then, Kasimi's Airbus private jet returned to Toulouse, and Liu Jin borrowed it again, taking Mela, Chloe, and Lala with him on their way back to China.

Of course, Liu Jin had to bear the costs of fuel and the flight attendant team himself.

But for Liu Jin, none of this mattered...

The reason for bringing Méla and the other two along was that we needed to continue discussing the possibility of establishing a local television network in France.

Manion's suggestion is excellent.

The leased satellite signals from Andorra are sufficient to cover the southern French region.

In a broad sense, Southern France encompasses the southwestern part of mainland Europe.

The Pyrenees and the Provence Basin are both among them.

However, in a narrower sense, it basically refers to the French Riviera, the Occitanie region, and Corsica.

Major cities include Toulouse, Marseille, Nice, Agnès-Vion, and Ajaccio.

These cities are all known for their cultural tourism.

The political atmosphere is relatively weak, unlike in Paris...

However, the overall local customs are open, and cultural exchanges with China are very frequent, even more so than with Paris...

Chloe smiled wryly and said, "Amos, why don't you just focus on making money? Why bring this up?"
"Even a single LaCinq instance is a headache; if you want to build a local television network, the investment would be enormous."

"Making money can certainly make you feel good, but it's also nice to be able to do something meaningful."

What is meaningful?

"For example, setting up a television network."

Chloe couldn't help but swear.

She looked at Mela and said, "Next year, we're going to be really busy."

"It's good. Being a little busy is not a bad thing."

Liu Jin then said softly, "Mera, thank you!"

He knew Mela's personality too well.

To put it simply, it's very artsy.

Her view on money is that enough is enough.

Of course, what does 'enough' mean? Mela has her own ideas.

In her words, "This is enough!"

If Liu Jin hadn't appeared, following the original timeline, Mela would most likely have had a very easy life.

She might even sell Singer Publishing, live a carefree life with Chloe, adopt a child, and then live out her days.

I guess so!
After all, Mela doesn't have much ambition.

But now...

Mela rolled her eyes. "You should stop causing trouble in the future. This situation is already a bit beyond what Clay and I can handle."

"I know, I will handle this."

Although Manion recommended Keslin Tasca, it would be difficult for Mela and Chloe until she agreed.

But inviting Catherine might not be so easy!

Liu Jin scratched his head, lay back in the leather chair, closed his eyes, and began to think about his next plan.

The first Bitcoin transaction has occurred.

The current price of Bitcoin is $0.0035 per coin.

Moreover, with the first transaction, some trading platforms began to include Bitcoin in their platforms.

Next year, Satoshi Nakamoto will release approximately 500 to 1000 million Bitcoins into the market. According to Satoshi Nakamoto's Bitcoin white paper, the total supply of Bitcoins in the market will remain at 2100 million. Of course, this total supply will not be reached immediately, but will gradually increase in the following years as the genesis block is promoted and expanded.

Liu Jin has registered on a few trading platforms through GST.

Starting next year, he will buy 100 million Bitcoins through different accounts, and then hold them until 2021, at which point he will gradually sell all of them...

And the cost of this investment won't be too high.

Be careful when buying in, and don't expose your intentions.

Otherwise, it would be very dangerous.

Besides Bitcoin, another investment Liu Jin made was the acquisition of gold.

This thing holds its value!
Aside from Bitcoin and gold, Liu Jin doesn't have any other investment options for the time being...

But don't rush, maybe a new direction will emerge someday?
……

The plane landed at the Capital Airport again in the early hours of the 19th.

Chen Qi was the one who came to pick them up at the airport as always.

Besides Chen Qi, there are also Alizee, Eva, and A.A., as well as Camille.

As the car drove along the highway in the capital, looking at the familiar yet unfamiliar scenery on both sides, Liu Jin felt a strong sense of homecoming.

It's been three years!
More than three years later, he has finally returned.

"Uncle, how long are you staying this time?"

"After the Spring Festival."

"Doesn't that mean we'll be leaving after February?"

"Nonsense, I haven't spent Chinese New Year at home for almost ten years!"

"It'll take that long? What about your work?"

"Take a break. We can talk about work when we get back."

Liu Jin was a little tired, so he didn't say anything more.

He simply held Camille in his arms, staring blankly at the scenery rushing past outside the car window, his thoughts becoming somewhat chaotic. He admitted: for a fleeting moment, he didn't want to wander anymore!

The three of them (AA) seemed to get along quite well.

He and Mela and the others sat in the back, whispering to each other endlessly.

The car exited the highway and entered the city.

Soon, we arrived at Beiluoguxiang.

At five in the morning, all was quiet.

Liu Jin carried the sleeping Camille and got out of the car with the other women. Led by Eva and Alizee, they arrived at the gate of the courtyard house.

The gate to the courtyard was ajar. When Liu Jin walked around the screen wall and into the front yard, he saw his parents and his older sister, who had come all the way from Zhongzhou, standing in the yard.

For a moment, Liu Jin was a little dazed!

……

It feels so good to be home!

Mom and Dad, showing concern and care.

Liu Jin then began to live a life of ease, with everything done for him.

He doesn't need to think about writing, recording, or even television stations/websites...

In short, just clear your mind and relax.

Every morning when I wake up, I take Camille and play with the two pairs of twins one by one.

Afterwards, he drove around the capital with Eva and the others.

Liu Jin had been tired of visiting this ancient city in his previous life... but now, revisiting it, he still felt a sense of novelty.

This made him feel exceptionally happy.

And just like that, the winter solstice arrived in the blink of an eye.

He got up very early and is now offering incense to his grandparents in the backyard room.

Then they excitedly prepared to make dumplings together.

If you don't eat dumplings on the Winter Solstice, your ears will freeze off... But he didn't expect that a guest would arrive while he was kneading the dough.

Tianxian and Changchang have arrived.

She returned to China with Cui Jian and Jiang Wen in early December, after Liu Jin saw Janet Jackson off.

"How did you know I was back?"

“Eva told me.”

"When did you and Eva become so close?"

Eva rolled her eyes and couldn't help but say, "Come on, Crystal and I just finished working together on Inception, you idiot."

"I forgot all about it!"

Liu Jin slapped his forehead, which immediately turned white.

Camille giggled beside her, "Daddy's just like me!"

She kept causing trouble, getting flour all over her nose and face.

AA smiled and handed Liu Jin a towel, "Wipe your face first."

Liu Jin nodded, then called out to Tianxian and Changchang, "Since you're here, don't just stand around, come and make dumplings together."

Tianxia and Changchang smiled as they put down the gift, took off their coats, and sat down to the side.

But before we could even finish making a few dumplings, more guests arrived.

When Jiang Wen and his wife, along with Han Shanping, came in and saw how lively the room was, they all took off their clothes and started helping without saying a word.

"How did you know I was back? Did Sisi tell you?"

"No, that's not it. But Old Ma said you might have gone back to China, so I thought you should be here."

By the way, didn't Eva and the others go to see a performance at the Beijing People's Art Theatre a few days ago? There were three foreigners, plus Sissi was there too…

Someone recognized Ali and Eva!

Jiang Wen said gloatingly, "I reckon it won't be long before reporters come knocking on our door."

"Really annoying!"

Liu Jin couldn't help but curse.

The "old horse" Jiang Wen was referring to was Mark Müller.

Before leaving Italy, Liu Jin spoke with him on the phone, but they didn't talk much.

The reason I didn't contact Monica is that she's currently in America preparing for the release of "I Am Legend".

First it was I Am Legend, and next summer it's Night at the Museum.

Next year at the end of the year, it will be Inception.

It feels like it's going to be another busy year.

"After Christmas, Lao Ma and Lisa are coming to the capital."

"What is he here for?"

"Please, Lisa is from the capital, okay?"

Liu Jin suddenly realized what was going on.

That's perfect. When Lao Ma arrives, we can talk to him about the Italian television network.

However, Lao Ma is currently serving as the chairman of the Venice Organizing Committee, and he probably won't be able to get away for the time being...

Or, why don't we call Monica later and have a chat?

Liu Jin began to have doubts.
