Chapter 113 Love Before Dawn (Please collect, recommend, and vote for the monthly ticket!!!)
"Back to Paris?"

"Yes!"

"Is the Swiss propaganda over?"

"not yet."

"Then can you come back?"

“I cried to Marlene and she relented and agreed to let me come back and rest for a few days.

By the way, I saw your book in Switzerland."

"Angel?"

"Yes, it's selling very well. Many people say they like it and even ask me to get you signed copies."

"Hahaha, that's great!"

Singla has some connections in France.

But outside of France...

Fortunately, Mela found a partner with Midnight Publishing.

She used the co-publication of "The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo" to exchange for Midnight Publishing's sales channels in French-speaking countries.

Of course, you have to share the profits!
According to Irina Landon, now the de facto head of Midnight Publishing, Angel sales in French-speaking countries are expected to be between 1.5 million and 2 million copies. The same is true for English-speaking and Spanish-speaking countries. But as long as the hype is built, sales will be strong. It all depends on how far Anjelica Adjani and the financial backers can push the film adaptation. The better the film's performance, the higher the sales.

Complement each other.

The higher the sales volume, the higher Liu Jin's income will be.

Of course he would be happy if the products sold well in Switzerland.

"By the way, I finally got some time off, you have to accompany me."

"Forehead……"

"I came back specifically to attend your book signing event."

"Okay, where are you going?"

"I... haven't been home for a long time!"

"Then I'll go back with you."

Liu Jin answered decisively without any hesitation.

Alice suddenly smiled happily.

……

That night, Liu Jin arrived in his loyal Paris again.

Shakespeare and Company, where the book signing event will be held tomorrow, is located just opposite Notre Dame Cathedral.

So Liu Jin found a hotel nearby to stay in.

Nothing happened all night.

Early the next morning, he was woken up by a call from Meera.

Then Mela took him to a restaurant and had a simple breakfast.

Burgers and coffee!
I don’t understand. Why do you, a French girl, like to eat hamburgers?
You should have a French sandwich!
But he didn't dare say this to Meila.

However, Liu Jin underestimated the added value that "Angel" would bring him.

Shakespeare and Company doesn't look big, but it has beautiful wooden walls and is very distinctive.

The bookstore has been established for a hundred years. It is not only a holy place for literary exchange, but also a filming location for many movies.

For example, the last part of the famous "Love in" trilogy, Love in the Dusk and Sunset, was filmed in this bookstore.

However, the third part of Love should not be out yet!

When Liu Jin saw Shakespeare and Company, he couldn't help but think of this movie.

"Meira, have you heard of the movie called Before Sunrise?"

The reason I ask this is because this movie was released at this time in my previous life.

The second part will be released in 2004.

But Liu Jin had never seen it in a video store.

Meera was stunned.

She turned her head to look at Chloe, but saw that Chloe also had a confused look on her face.

"Don't look at me. I've never seen or heard of... French movies?"

"I'm not sure."

"Well, I haven't heard of it. But if even a movie enthusiast like me doesn't know about it, I guess it must be a bad movie. Bad movies are made every day all over the world. Maybe your friends have seen it. Anyway, I don't know."

The probability is that there is none!

Liu Jin nodded in agreement and said, "It really could be a bad movie. However, with such a beautiful name... it would be a shame if it turned out to be a bad movie."

Mela and Chloe looked at each other, confused about what Liu Jin was thinking.

At this time, the book signing session also began!

Shakespeare and Company has prepared a total of 800 copies of "The Father".

Everyone who buys a father will come to Liu Jin's table.

A young man, who looked to be about 27 or 28 years old, came over with two books: one about an angel and one about a father.

"Mr. Amos, my name is Alexander Carpenter Jr., and I am a first-year neurosurgeon at the Sorbonne University's Faculty of Medicine."

"Forehead?"

Liu Jin raised his head and looked at the other person.

"My father is an expert on Alzheimer's disease. He has published many articles before to alert people to this disease, but...my father has been in poor health recently, so he couldn't come. He asked me to express his gratitude to you on his behalf.

"Father" will make more and more people pay attention to Alzheimer's disease. It is a great work."

Alzheimer's disease has actually been discovered a long time ago.

But it has never attracted much attention.

More people associate this disease with Alzheimer's disease.

But in fact, patients with Alzheimer's disease tend to be more paranoid, more fragile, and more irritable.

Liu Jin thought for a moment and said softly, "Thank you, father, for your gratitude. I just...actually, I don't know much about this disease, so there may be some deviations in my writing. If there are any mistakes, please feel free to correct them."

"No, no, no, your description in the book is absolutely correct. You write very well!"

"Thank you!"

Liu Jin took the book, opened the cover, and wrote on the title page: "I have a dream: I wish there would be no more illness and pain in this world. But I'm not a doctor, so I can't do it..." There's an old Chinese saying: "A good doctor always has a kind heart."

I wish Mr. Carpenter and all the doctors in the world can overcome the difficulties as soon as possible.

I still wish that all the elderly can enjoy their old age...

Carpenter suddenly said, "You're talking about the compassion of a doctor, right?"

"Can you speak Chinese?"

"I have a classmate who is Chinese... Could you please write these four words in Chinese?"

"of course can!"

Liu Jin smiled, and with a big stroke of his pen, he wrote the four words "A doctor's heart is kind."

……

When Alijie arrived, the book signing event was already coming to an end.

Signing eight hundred books made Liu Jin miserable.

However, overall, for a writer who has only published two books, signing 800 books at a book signing event is already quite impressive.

After the signing event, Liu Jin took Alijie away!

However, as soon as he left, Chloe called him repeatedly.

"Amos, where have you been?"

"I'm going to the train station to go back to Toulouse."

"Bullshit, I saw you get in a car with a girl...it looked like Alice, you playboy."

"Forehead!"

"Well, then get out of here, it's no use for you to stay here anyway.

Mela asked me to tell you that you are in a lot of debt now. Wall-E, the female agent, and your new book..."

"She also has a copy of 'Little Sweethearts'."

"Two Little Kids is coming out this summer, and we've also agreed to release The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo simultaneously. Amos, you've become lazy this year. Where's the once-hardworking Liu? And don't forget Deborah."

Meila reminded Liu Jin with a sneer, then hung up the phone.

Alice stood aside, looking at him in confusion.

"My partner is urging me to submit my manuscript!"

Liu Jin scratched his head.

Why mention Deborah for no reason?
That girl has been gone for more than two months and there’s not even a call from her. What can I do!

But am I tired?
Shit!

I just finished The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo and The Old Man and the Sea, so where am I from?

"Let's go buy tickets."

"it is good!"

Alice smiled happily.

However, when they were queuing up to buy tickets, a phone call suddenly came.

It's already evening!

The call was from Sun Yue.

"Brother Jin, help!"

He was crying and shouting on the phone.

Liu Jin was stunned!
