I am a literary giant in Europe

Chapter 80 Debate (Please read, collect and recommend)
Liu Jin was a little listless throughout the morning.

He couldn't sleep because the classroom was very small and the teacher only needed to walk down from the podium to reach him in two steps.

So, I could only hold on until the get out of class was over.

Fortunately, there was a half-hour break between classes, so he ran to the Boris newsstand across from the school and ordered a cup of espresso, which finally gave him some relief.

But even so, he felt drowsy the whole morning.

After class at noon, Liu Jin walked out yawning.

Liu Sisi came over stealthily.

"he's gone!"

"Who?"

"That stick."

"You left by yourself?"

"Ok!"

It shouldn't be.

Are Koreans’ morals so high?
"How did you know?"

"Duan Jie has been staying at my place these past few days. I secretly went back with her yesterday, but the guy was gone."

Liu Jin rolled his eyes and said softly, "Then you better be careful."

"What do you mean?"

"He didn't achieve his goal, so I'm worried he'll come back."

"What should I do?"

"It's best to let Duan Jie not go back and observe for a few days."

"it is good!"

Liu Sisi nodded, like a chick pecking at rice.

But Liu Jin was a little worried!

This girl seems to have been dragged into this... If the Korean gets angry and embarrassed, will he take his anger out on her? It's hard to say.

When it comes to shamelessness, Liu Jin never underestimates the bottom line of the Koreans.

The main reason is that the 2002 World Cup has not started yet.

At that time, the shameless seal of the Koreans will be completely lifted, and from then on, the Republic of Korea will become the Great Cold Underworld.

"Here!"

"what is this?"

"You'd better carry the French Gendarmerie Special Forces' tactical knife with you."

"Not that much."

"I don't know if it's that serious or not, but when you go out, safety comes first."

Liu Sisi thought about it, took the tactical knife and put it away.

……

There are no classes in the afternoon.

Liu Jin sat on the steps at the school gate.

The phone rang.

"Hello, motorcycle!"

Liu Jin picked up the phone, but heard someone calling his name in front.

Looking up, he saw a middle-aged man and a man in his early thirties walking towards him.

The smaller man was a black man.

There was also a camera hanging on his chest.

"Amos, this is Andre, let's talk on the phone."

"Hello, reporter Andre!"

Liu Jin stood up, walked over and hugged Andre, kissing him on the cheek.

"This is my assistant, Nurz. He's in charge of taking pictures. He might take a few photos later."

"no problem."

Liu Jin walked forward with a smile and kissed Nurz on the cheek.

"Andre, you and Amos are on the steps. Can I take a couple of pictures?"

Andre turned his head and glanced at Liu Jin.

Seeing that Liu Jin had no objection, he stood with Liu Jin and took two photos with the main entrance of Toulouse Business School as the background.

"Where shall we talk?"

Liu Jin asked.

Andre smiled and said, "This is your territory, you decide."

"Let's buy some coffee first, and then go to the library. There aren't many people in the library at this time, and Xia La is easy to talk to."

Shara is the librarian.

Most of the time is in the lobby on the first floor of the library.

Andre has no objection.

Liu Jin took the two of them to the Boris newsstand opposite the school and ordered three cups of coffee.

"Boris's coffee is good. We'll come here to buy a cup during our breaks."

Liu Jin praised.

Boris was also very happy. He pulled Nurz to take a photo of him outside the newsstand and then waived the cost of three cups of coffee.

"It seems that you have adapted well to life here."

"Yes!"

When Liu Jin saw Andre take out a recorder, he quickly said, "Wait a moment."

He also took out a recorder from his schoolbag.

"Don't think too much about it. I'm just used to it... When I went out, my father told me to be well prepared for everything."

"You are on your guard?" "Mieux vant se mefier que de se repentir."

(It’s better to let go than to regret it)
Liu Jin said with a smile.

This is a French proverb, which actually means that we should be on guard against others, but should not have the intention to harm others.

Andre laughed and then said he didn't care.

This is very normal. Sometimes during interviews, not only the reporter needs to bring a recorder, but the interviewee also needs to be prepared.

What if?
isn't it...

“Originally, I should have invited you to Café Delfina, which is not too far from here.

Unfortunately, the cafe was closed when I went there at noon, so I asked you to come to the library instead. Don’t mind.”

Sitting down in the lobby on the first floor of the library, Liu Jin explained with a smile.

Nurz took the camera and took two more pictures.

"let us start?"

"at any time."

"Um, please introduce yourself, Amos. I believe many readers would like to know more about you."

"Me..."

It’s a good start.

Andre is indeed the ace reporter of Humanité.

He spoke in an elegant and polite manner, without any aggressiveness and in a very friendly manner.

People will develop a liking for him unconsciously.

But Liu Jin won’t.

It’s not like I haven’t been interviewed or met reporters before.

Many reporters will show a friendly attitude at the beginning, let you relax your guard, and then strike back with one blow.

The two drank coffee and chatted like friends.

Liu Jin gave a brief self-introduction and then turned the topic to the book "Amelie".

“To be honest, I was a little surprised by the success of this book.”

"How to say?"

"When the book first came out, Mela advertised it in the Humane Times."

"Yeah, Meera told me."

"Good results at the beginning?"

"Meira said it was good, but I didn't quite understand."

“So this is your first time publishing?”

"Yes!"

"So, you're lucky."

The first pit appeared.

Liu Jin laughed and said, "I can't say it was just luck. I feel like this is a good book. If I say luck, there was some of it. Publishing a book is very troublesome for newcomers. At the beginning, you have to go back and forth with the publisher, which is very exhausting. I was lucky. A friend of mine happened to be studying at a university and knew Mela. She read half of it and then gave the manuscript to Mela."

Andre wanted to turn the topic to Alice.

But Liu Jin dodged it cleverly.

"Haha, that's true."

Andre was not disappointed.

From the moment Liu Jin took out the recorder, he knew that Liu Jin was not easy to deal with.

He has seen too much.

So there's no rush.

"So, Meila only read half of the manuscript and decided to publish it?"

"Yes, she told me that kindness is an eternal element in this world, and she liked it very much."

"Then I must admit that Meila's vision and courage are not bad."

"..."

At the reception desk behind the library door, Shara looked over here curiously.

When she heard that Liu Jin wanted to be interviewed here, she readily agreed.

But she was curious!
Because although he didn't know what they were talking about, Liu Jin didn't look nervous at all.

The topic continues.

Andre's questions gradually deepened.

From the "terrible" things Liu Jin mentioned in his preface to Emily's departure from Paris.

From the content of the book, slowly turn to life.

The question was still very mild, but Liu Jin began to sense the murderous intent hidden in it.

"In fact, you should know that many French writers don't think very highly of Amélie."

"What?"

“For example, Michel, his last book sold 800,000 copies in France.

Before the release of his new book, "Platform," he believed that the success of "Angel" was more due to Alizee's fame than the quality of the work itself. He felt that this was not a good idea... A good writer shouldn't rely on hype.

“I haven’t read Michelle’s book.”

"Oh?"

“But I checked on Yahoo, and his last book was very controversial.

I don't know if this polemic is intentional or unintentional. If it's intentional, then it's also a form of hype, isn't it? He uses a distorted ethical view to attract readers' attention and spark debate. Is that right? Of course, you could also call this ethical view an exploration and exposure of human nature.

But is it really good to use ugliness to stimulate readers' morals and spark debate about morality? I've seen many people express dissatisfaction with the content and plot of his story, but he seems to be very proud of it.

"This one……"

Andre feels a little pressure!
