"Hello, Amos!"

Liu Jin raised his head and saw Sophie Marceau's beautiful face.

She was lying sideways, wearing a white shirt, with half of her body leaning out from the railing.

Liu Jin was so frightened that he shuddered and subconsciously leaned back. He heard a bang and fell to the ground with the chair.

"Sophie?"

Liu Jin couldn't help but open his mouth and scream.

"Hey, are you okay?"

"I...you scared me, really!"

As Liu Jin spoke, he got up from the ground, picked up the chair, picked up the drawing board and placed it on the round table.

"You...that's not right. I remember no one lived in this room of yours before!"

"Yes, I rent it now."

"rent?"

"Whatever else, housing prices in Toulouse are not cheap."

Sophie Marceau said with a smile: "But the environment here is really nice. When I came here today, I bought a book downstairs."

As she spoke, she raised the book in her hand and shook it.

Liu Jin recognized it.

The Father Trapped in Time.

"Can I come over?"

"Of course, I'll open the door for you!"

"Need not!"

As Sophie spoke, she lifted her leg and stepped over the railing.

The two balconies were separated by only a wall. She moved sideways to Liu Jin's side, then raised her legs again and jumped over.

Her legs are so nice!

Sophie's official height is 173cm.
But Liu Jin thought it was not that tall, about 168-170cm.

"How dare you!"

"Haha, I used to play like this when I was a kid."

"Play?"

Liu Jin helped her stand steadily and looked down.

Fortunately, it was late and no one noticed.

Otherwise, tomorrow’s headlines will definitely be: Sophie Marceau meets her lover at night and does things at a high altitude.

"This is the fourth floor."

"So what if it's the fourth floor? I've filmed Braveheart and 007."

Yes, although most of them are literary dramas.

But it must be admitted that Sophie Marceau's physical fitness is indeed not bad.

"Come in and sit down."

Liu Jin took Sophie into the room.

"You have a nice place."

Sophie took a look and praised with a smile.

"Come on, you're a big star, this kind of house probably wouldn't even be of your liking."

"Celebrities are human beings too. As long as they can live comfortably, that's fine!"

Sophie sat down on the sofa.

Liu Jin brewed a cup of Maojian green tea and placed it on the coffee table.

"I don't have any coffee here... In fact, I never drink coffee at home."

"Then why did you buy a coffee machine?"

"My girlfriend bought it for me, but I don't use it much."

"You have a girlfriend? Alice?"

"No, no, no, Alijie and I are really just friends. She's my classmate. But, she recently returned to Brazil."

"Brazilian? Oh, Brazilian girls are so enthusiastic."

Liu Jin chuckled and didn't continue the conversation.

"Why did you come to Toulouse?"

Sophie said, "Paris is too noisy, so I came here to get away from it all. Please, I'm French, isn't it normal for me to come to Toulouse? Besides, the environment here in Toulouse is really nice. I haven't even had a good time exploring the City of Roses."

After that, she asked, "You should be familiar with Toulouse."

"It's not that bad. I've been writing books most of the time, so I haven't been out much."

Hide away from the crowd?
Liu Jin suddenly remembered.

At the beginning of the year, she broke up peacefully with the famous director Andrzej Zulawski.

This beautiful lady in front of me, who looks very quiet, seems to be the type who is in love.

She fell in love with Andrei at the age of 18 and gave birth to a son with Zulawski in 1995.

In other words, this is the child's mother.

Zulawski, Liu Jin is not very familiar with him.

All we know is that he is 25 years older than Sophie Marceau, a Polish director, and very famous in Europe.

He is also an old pervert.

How could he do this to someone who is 25 years younger than him?
I'm so envious! Moreover, Liu Jin checked it on Yahoo.

This director seems to focus mainly on feature films.

What's the moral of European dramas? It's just another way of saying "erotic films," as if the story can't be told without nudity and X-rays.

I have more time to watch you discuss human nature than to find a woodpecker.

The human nature there is more complicated!

And then there's the racial issue...

"What are you thinking?"

"Um, nothing much. How about tea?"

Looking back at the first half of Sophie's life, it seems that it has always been dominated by feature films.

Last year she seemed to have released a movie called "Loyalty", in which she played an indulgent female photographer.

Liu Jin had watched the videotape, and the content was revealing and indeed very erotic.

Wait, the director of that movie seems to be Zulawski.

"The tea is good, but...what are you thinking about?"

From the time Sophie entered the room until now, Liu Jin has been in a daze twice in such a short period of time.

He simply sat down on the carpet and said, "I just remembered something. Sorry... I was just thinking about something. Inertia, inertia, it will be over in a moment."

"Want a story?"

Sophie saw the drawing board on the coffee table.

"May I?"

"It's just a random doodle, it's okay."

But who is Sophie?

Veteran actor!
He also studied directing at the French Higher Film School.

Next year, in 2002, her first feature-length film will be released.

She wrote, directed, and starred in the film, which grossed $24 worldwide. Although she won the Best Director Award at the Montreal Film Festival, it also ended her career as a director.

What’s the name?

When Love Becomes a Habit!
Yes, that’s the name, and it’s a feature film.

It seems that French directors, except Luc Besson, prefer to make feature films and art films to win awards.

I feel like it's a bit of a circle of its own.

“It’s heavy, but it seems like a lot of fun!”

"It's just a painting, and you can see that?"

Liu Jin was a little surprised.

Sophie Marceau stretched out her hand, pointed at her eyes, and then pointed at the painting.

“You have to trust the eye of a good actor.”

Apart from a brave heart, you don't seem to have much vision.

Of course, Liu Jin couldn't say this.

"Is this the story you were talking about, the concentration camp in World War II?"

"Yes."

"Do you mind telling me what kind of story this is?"

Liu Jin scratched his head and lit a cigarette.

"Do you mind?"

"Ha, of course not... Is this a Chinese cigarette? Give me one too."

“The best cigarettes in China!”

Liu Jin smiled and handed Huazi to Sophie Marceau.

He thought for a moment and said, "Do you know the story about how the Chinese people accepted and rescued many Jews during the Nazi Holocaust during World War II?"

"what?"

Sophie was about to light a cigarette, but when she heard what Liu Jin said, she was stunned.

She is not Jewish.

But Zulawski was indeed Jewish.

Zulawski had told her many stories about the persecution of Jews by the Nazis during World War II.

And believes that the whole world owes the Jews an apology.

Because when the Nazis massacred the Jews, the whole world closed its doors to the Jews.

Liu Jin looked at Sophie's expression and knew that she didn't know.

But, it seems normal!

"At the time, European countries were afraid to accept Jews due to their appeasement policies. Mr. He Fengshan, then China's Consul General in Austria, signed visas for the Jews. Later, the Chinese Nationalist Government accepted over 30,000 Jewish refugees. These people gathered in China's Magic City, and that's where my story takes place."

Sophie was a little confused!
"I'm sorry, I really don't know about this."

"It doesn't matter. I just want to tell the world about China's great deeds of kindness through this story."

"What's the name of this story?"

"Life is beautiful!"

Liu Jin hesitated for a moment, but then said with relief: "That's right, life is beautiful! La vie est belle."
