I am a literary giant in Europe

Chapter 153 Everyone is well
"How is your brother?"

"my brother?"

Mela was stunned for a moment, then said, "That's good. Because of the French Idol project, he was transferred to F2 as deputy director."

"Demoted?"

"no!"

Meila smiled and said, “The level of F2 is higher than M6, and the deputy director of F2 is a higher position than the director of M6.

He is now mainly responsible for F2's cultural and film and television programs, and is also the financial director. His power is much greater than before."

F2, the full name of France 1, is the channel second only to TF.

Among all free public channels in France, its audience share accounts for 24 percent.

Wait, F2?

Liu Jin suddenly reacted.

Isn’t that the notorious anti-China TV station in the future?

The year Liu Jin was reborn, two F2 TV reporters came to China to fabricate fake news.

Looks like he's been sued!

But Liu Jin didn't live to see the final result.

Good guy...

I'm just a good guy!

"Are you worried that my brother will affect our cooperation?"

Mela was very smart and immediately guessed Liu Jin's silence.

Liu Jin smiled and didn't answer.

"Not all F2 members are anti-China. The anti-China tone of F2 is set by the top, and those below them can only follow this line.

Of course, there are many people...

But my brother isn’t, that’s just his job.”

"Okay, I was overthinking it!"

"That's great! If you, a Chinese national in a foreign country, don't have this kind of vigilance, you will suffer a great loss sooner or later."

A hint of admiration flashed in Meila's eyes.

……

In Mela's words, they want to enjoy life and relax!

Since publishing Liu Jin's works, Singla Publishing House's performance has been rising rapidly and its influence has been expanding.

In Toulouse, they had leapt from a third-rate publishing house to a second-rate one.

Singla Publishing House now has more than twenty writers on its books.

Of course, most of them are small authors.

There is only one great author, Liu Jin.

But it’s enough to keep them grounded in the publishing world.

The performance was good, but it became very hard.

From last year to this year, Mela has been almost constantly on the road for Liu Jin's works.

And so did Ottilie.

This is hard to accept for the French who like to enjoy life.

So Chloë made the suggestion, and Mela and Ottilie agreed without hesitation, which led to this trip to Nice...

"It has to be Chloe!"

Liu Jin couldn't help laughing.

Chloe curled her lips and said, "It's normal not to go to work. If you go back to Toulouse now, there will also be a strike and demonstration."

"On strike again?"

"Yes!"

"What's it for this time?"

"March for the 38-hour work week."

"Didn't we have a parade in the first half of the year?"

"You still don't understand the French... This kind of thing can't be solved with just one demonstration; it takes repeated wrangling.

I predict there will be another strike before the end of the year, and it will extend to the entire Haute-Garonne."

Liu Jin was speechless.

In less than a year in France, he experienced three strikes.

The first time was on my first day in France, when there was a major railway strike.

The second was in Toulouse, where they struck for a 38-hour work week.

The third one was much more interesting. It was a strike organized by the JN union in Toulouse, and all the participants were X workers in Toulouse.

Their strike and march were not disorderly.

Instead, you need to report in advance and the police will determine the route.

When the time came, people took to the streets.

As an outsider, if you are interested, you can join at any time.

Holding banners and signs, walk along the designated route.

It feels like taking a walk.

Liu Jin participated in another strike march.

Of course, just out of curiosity.

JNs will take to the streets wearing masks and bikinis.

Men would occasionally join them on the road to express their support...

All in all, it’s a very interesting social activity!
Unexpectedly, Toulouse is going on strike again...

Fortunately I didn’t go back!

……

After they finished their meal, Mela and the other two left.

They are going shopping.

Tomorrow, they will each do their own activities.

For example, Chloe has to go back and report to her father.

Meera was going to visit her brother and some uncles.

As for Ottilie, she said she was going to the library.

The National Library of France!
The day after tomorrow they will set off for Nice for vacation.

On September 11th, we returned to Toulouse. As for Liu Jin, he was going to see a play the day after tomorrow.

It seems like I forgot something!

After Liu Jin, Mela and the other two separated, they always felt that they had forgotten something.

However, he didn't care too much. He strolled to Notre Dame Cathedral alone and sat there for the whole afternoon.

The next day, it rained in Paris...

Eva Green sent a text message: Mr. Amos, will you come the day after tomorrow?

【certainly! 】

【expect! 】

[Are you still nervous?]

[A bit. 】

【Let me give you a question to test you. 】

What's the question?

[Question: How many steps are needed to put an elephant in the refrigerator?]

After a long time, Eva replied: I don’t know.

[Three steps: Step 1, open the refrigerator; Step 2, put the elephant in the refrigerator; Step 3, close the refrigerator door.]

This time, Eva Green took a long time to reply to the message.

【…】

[I'll ask you one more question.]

【you say! 】

This time, Eva Green replied immediately.

There's a general meeting at the zoo. Lions are here, tigers are here, rabbits are here, and monkeys are here. Who's missing?

【giraffe?】

【wrong! 】

【leopard?】

【wrong! 】

【squirrel?】

【Still wrong! 】

[…Okay, I can’t guess. Who didn’t come? ]

[Elephant, it's in the refrigerator! ]

This time, it took Eva a long time to reply to a text message.

【Liu, thank you, I'm not nervous anymore. 】

Liu Jin smiled and threw his phone aside.

He sat down in front of the window, picked up the coffee that had already gotten a little cold, and looked at the rain outside the window that was like silk and mist.

In the distance, the Eiffel Tower becomes particularly hazy.

……

Meila and the other two left.

Before leaving, Chloe sent a text message.

[I forgot to tell you that Rosalie's family asked a lawyer to send a coordination letter.

They implore you to stop pursuing the matter of old Mrs. Rosalie and are willing to apologize to you on her behalf and compensate you with 100,000 francs. The other lawyer said: Rosalie is old, and we hope to save her some face...

Mario means, I agree.

If the old lady really was being naughty, she would simply be sent to a correctional facility. At her age, even if she went to a correctional facility, they wouldn't actually punish her. She was willing to spend money to avoid disaster, probably because she was afraid. Besides, she wouldn't be coming back, so there was no need to pursue the matter further.

You watch and decide.

If they insist on putting an advertisement in the newspaper, then we can continue...]

Liu Jin thought about it and replied: That's it, but I ask to retain the right to appeal.

【certainly! 】

After Chloe sent this text message, she didn't continue.

Liu Jin didn't send any more messages.

He went to the Louvre and happened to see an exhibition of the original painting of "Mona Lisa".

Security is very tight.

Liu Jin stayed in front of the portrait of Mona Lisa for a long time.

Please forgive my lack of artistic talent, I really didn’t feel any strong artistic impact.

I feel that it is not as shocking as the painting of the Great Wall in the Great Hall of Jingxi Hotel...

Perhaps this is the so-called cultural difference between the East and the West.

Not to mention those weird drawings at the future xx Academy of Fine Arts!
However, this also made his creative conception of "The Da Vinci Code" more perfect.

After Mela and the other two left, Paris suddenly became a stranger to Liu Jin.

He went to Rue Jacques Guerre and took a look at the Chabrol bakery from a distance.

Thanks to "Amelie", Chabrol Bakery's business has improved a lot.

When Liu Jin arrived, he saw many people queuing.

To his surprise, he saw Emily...

She was in and out of the bakery, wearing a green uniform with an apron, and a smile on her face.

Emily returned to Paris?
This is really unexpected!
Previously, when Liu Jin contacted Chabrol, Chabrol said that Emily had broken up with her boyfriend and found a job in Brussels.

I guess life there is not very happy.

Or maybe Chabrol wrote her a letter asking her to come back.

He looks very energetic and has a bright smile on his face.

That smile was exactly the same as the one Liu Jin had when he first saw her, without any change.

Looking at her busy appearance, Liu Jin also smiled.

However, he did not go over to disturb them, but watched from a distance.

After a moment, he turned and left.

Emily, who was standing at the door of the bakery, seemed to sense something and turned to look at where Liu Jin had stopped before.

It's just empty...

But Emily's smile was particularly bright!
