I am a literary giant in Europe

Chapter 35 Press Conference (33)

In Paris, you never have to worry about not being able to buy good clothes.

After all, this is the fashion capital.

Fashion brands from all over the world gather in this city, and you can find all kinds of clothing you can think of.

Of course, the prerequisite is: you have rice in your pocket!

Liu Jin has enough money to buy a suit.

But he is unwilling to spend tens of thousands of dollars to buy those high-end luxury brands.

He likes custom-made clothes the most because they fit him well and are cheap.

Of course, if you are looking for a world-class tailor, it will probably be more expensive than a high-end luxury brand.

It’s not worth spending tens of thousands of dollars on Armani or Versace.

Absolutely not Givenchy!
Because in the future there will be a little black fat boy who almost ruins this brand.

Liu Jin bought a suit from Sandro, a brand founded in 1984.

A suit costs twelve thousand, a shirt two thousand, a pair of leather shoes three thousand... all together, it's seventeen thousand.

Brands that are too low-end are not acceptable either.

After all, it was a press conference at the Paris City Hall, and he couldn't lose face for Alice.

Simple, generous, slim fit...

It basically met Liu Jin's needs.

While buying clothes, he discovered something.

The clerk measured his height and found that he had grown taller!
Liu Jin remembers very clearly that his height is 175 cm and has always been the same.

Later, when I got older, I even started to have some tics.

And now, he is 177 cm tall.

This was the height he had only reached in his previous life by wearing height-increasing shoes.

At first, he didn't quite believe it.

I asked the clerk to measure him again, and he was 177 cm tall.

Really grown taller!
Liu Jin was a little confused, but he quickly calmed down.

His talent for languages ​​improved, and he became proficient in French, Japanese, English and Spanish.

This kind of thing is outrageous.

What's more, he was reborn!

Such a strange thing has happened, and growing two centimeters taller doesn't seem unacceptable.

Can it be higher?

Best, 185!

This is Liu Jin’s dream.

A bit greedy...

I returned to the hotel in a happy mood.

Although the rain outside had stopped, the cold and damp weather made him not want to go out again.

I took a shower in the hotel and then lay comfortably in bed.

He took out a copy of "The Narrow Gate" which he bought at a street bookstore from his backpack, leaned against the pillow and read slowly.

This is the work of André Gide, winner of the Nobel Prize in Literature.

But to be honest, it's a bit hard to watch.

Just like "One Hundred Years of Solitude", which is praised by countless people in the country, it is a pioneer of magical realism works.

Liu Jin tried to pick it up several times, but ended up throwing it aside.

Well, it might be more appropriate to pretend to be cool and deceive female intellectuals.

Look at the time, it's already ten o'clock.

Liu Jin threw the book aside and lay on the bed.

"Amelie" and "Little Sweethearts" are both completed, what book will you write next?
According to Liu Jin's plan, he intended to tinker with "I Love You, Paris", which was co-produced by the Coen brothers and more than a dozen other directors.

It was a film co-produced by more than twenty directors.

They divided Paris into twenty districts and designed eighteen short stories to tell the stories of love, family, friendship and humanity in the city of Paris.

Well, Western directors’ favorite subject: human nature!
It's a bit like the future movie "My Country, My Parents".

The global box office was 1700 million.

Don't ask Liu Jin how he knows so much.

The question is, I have an extraordinary memory...

At the beginning, Liu Jin hoped to gain a foothold in France with the Paris Trilogy.

But after writing Little Innocents, he didn't want to write about Paris anymore, as he felt a bit flattered.

Another reason was that when he first met Mela, Mela talked about the history of Singla Publishing House, which gave Liu Jin an inspiration.

"Father" can also be called "Father Trapped in Time".

Originally a stage play, it was adapted into a film in 2019 and premiered at the 2020 Sundance Film Festival.

Huaguo introduced it in 2021. Liu Jin's focus at the time was already on film and television, so he went to watch it specifically.

The film didn't make a lot of money at the box office, around $2500 million.

But it was quite impressive, winning several awards, including the 93rd Academy Award for Best Adapted Screenplay, and the lead actor Anthony Hopkins won the Oscar for Best Actor.

It is normal for the beacon country to lick France, especially in the cultural field.

But Liu Jin is a Chinese and how long has he been in France?
Two novels are enough, any more would be inappropriate... It would be better to convert "Father" into words.

Alzheimer's disease!

Mela's grandfather had this disease.

You see, the prototype is there.

Liu Jin can play freely with the rest, and it is also a gift for Mela. I believe she will like it very much.

Because Liu Jin could see that she loved her grandfather very much.

Well, that's it!
……

After getting rid of the troubles of "Little Kids", Liu Jin had a good sleep.

The next day he got up early, had breakfast, and checked out.

Before checking out, he changed into the Sandro suit.

Wearing a short coat, a scarf and carrying a backpack, he walked out of the hotel slowly.

The weather is very nice today, with bright sunshine.

But the temperature is a bit low.

Liu Jin took a taxi directly to the city hall and sat down in a nearby restaurant.

After lunch, he sat at a small table outside the restaurant, basking in the sunshine, looking very leisurely.

He likes this kind of life.

Free and worry-free.

Why do people need to grow up? When do they start growing up?

It feels like he grew up after returning to China.

But he doesn't like it.

"I am still the same young man as before, and my original intention has never changed.

A hundred years is just a test
A good life is what I like most
Young man in this world, his mission is always in his heart

No matter how many difficulties and dangers there are, I will never retreat..."

He changed one of the lyrics.

But my mission?
What is my mission?
Reborn, and given a powerful golden finger.

What should I do?

Liu Jin suddenly felt a little confused.

"Hello, motorcycle!"

The ringing of the phone woke him from his thoughts.

It’s Alice’s call.

"I'm Amos!"

"Hey, Liu Jin, where are you?"

"Me? I'm outside City Hall."

"where?"

"Pirate Captain's Restaurant, right next to the City Hall."

Eh?
Pirate Captain?

Pirates of the Caribbean?
A flash of inspiration came to Liu Jin's mind.

But he immediately shook his head.

Pirates of the Caribbean was adapted by Disney based on its theme park, and the first Pirates of the Caribbean film, The Curse of the Black Pearl, was released in 2003.

With the current level of special effects, the project should have been launched or the script should have been written.

Liu Jin is self-aware.

It is easy to fleece the French, but it is not easy to fleece Hollywood.

After all, it’s Disney!
"Hey, hey, hey... Liu Jin, are you listening?"

"Uh, I'm here."

"I'll have someone pick you up, come over here first."

"it is good!"

Liu Jin raised his hand and glanced at the time. It was past two o'clock.

The press conference starts at three o'clock and lasts for two hours.

After it's over, catch the train immediately and you can catch the last one.

He had promised Teacher Julie that he would go back to class on Wednesday.
