Chapter 24: Where Are The Fantastic Beasts

Chapter 24 Where are the Fantastic Beasts

…

“Coffee, water!”

“thanks!”

After saying thanks, Guo Shouyun took the cup.

“Rowling, did you know? Bruce is not just fond of “Harry Potter”, he has written a new novel closely related to “Harry Potter”, and the content is very exciting!”

“Oh?”

After successfully arousing the curiosity of the other party, Christopher took out the re-bound manuscript from his briefcase and handed it over.

“Where are Fantastic Beasts?”

After seeing the name, Rowling couldn’t help showing surprise on her face. She was all too familiar with the name. In her pen, this is a custom textbook for Hogwarts, and there will be a copy of Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them in every wizarding family!

“Sorry, Ms. Rowling. I really liked your idea of Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, so after writing the book, I just used that name. I can change it again if you mind! “Guo Shouyun said apologetically.

Rowling shook her head and said nothing. Her attention has been completely drawn to the content of the novel.

This classic film, which has won more than 800 million box office in the world in later generations, undoubtedly shows its charm under Guo Shouyun’s delicate writing.

Moreover, the producer of this film is Rowling herself. Although it is more than ten years later, the wonderful content in it can still firmly attract this talented woman who created the magical world of “Harry Potter”!

After noticing the change in Rowling’s expression, Guo Shouyun and Christopher looked at each other, and wisely did not interrupt. It was not until three hours later that the entrance door was pushed open, and a middle-aged white man with a medium stature and a refined temperament walked in.

“Rowling? … Christopher, are you here?”

The visitor hung his coat on the hanger next to him and walked over with a smile.

“Neil, you’re back!”

Christopher took the initiative to stand up to meet him.

After the two simply embraced, Christopher pointed to Guo Shouyun who was following up.

“This is Bruce Guo, a brilliant American writer, who came to visit Rowling with me!”

“Hello, Mr. Murray!”

“Hello!”

Neil Murray looked at the young man in front of him, who was somewhat immature, but his eyes were full of vicissitudes, and he held the hand that the other party took the initiative to stretch out.

Guo Shouyun from later generations knew that Rowling had remarried, but she didn’t know who her second husband was. But looking at it now, it is obviously the professor of anesthesiology at the University of Exeter named Neil Murray! However, according to the information provided by Christopher, although the two are currently living together, they are not married yet, which is also common in the West.

“Is she…?”

After greeting the two of them, looking at his girlfriend who was still immersed in the book, Neil Murray showed a look of surprise on his face.

“Neil, hold on a second. I’ll finish it soon!”

Before Christopher opened his mouth to explain, Rowling was the first to speak.

The latter nodded and greeted Christopher and Guo Shouyun.

“Let’s go over there and talk!”

After glancing at the living room that the latter pointed to not far away, the two nodded. After a group came over, they sat down around the round table.

“Neil, this time I brought a bottle of top Bordeaux red wine. We must have a good drink at dinner later!” Christopher laughed.

“The top Bordeaux? Wouldn’t it be the ‘Château de Lusalis’?”

Because they were already very familiar friends, Christopher rolled his eyes directly at Neil Murray’s joke.

“Even if I have money, I can’t buy the noble rot sweet wine of the wine castle of Lusalis!”

Christopher Ritter is not joking, but anyone who knows anything about Bordeaux wines knows the name ‘Château de Lysalis’.

In the famous Bordeaux official rating in 1855, Lusallus was designated as the only super first-class winery, surpassing the current five major wineries including Lafite, Latour and Margaux.

Michel Serre, academician of the French Academy and a contemporary French philosopher, once praised: “The Château de Lysalis does not only belong to the family of Lysalis, it also belongs to France, Europe and the whole world. Just like Chartres Like the Cathedral, Ravel’s Bolero, Monet’s Water Lilies, it belongs to you and it belongs to me.”

Because it is too precious and the output is small, the noble rot sweet wine of ‘Lusalus Wine Castle’ is basically not sold in the world, because there are too many orders and the supply is in short supply. Before it could be listed, it was sold out by those aristocratic tycoons.

“…However, when you and Rowling get married, I will try my best to buy a bottle of ‘Lysalis Wine Castle’ Noble Rot Sweet Wine as a gift for your wedding!”

“Then I’ll say thank you in advance!” After a pause, Neil Murray’s eyes shifted to Guo Shouyun, who was on the side. As the host, he couldn’t ignore the guests out of courtesy.

“Mr. Guo is American?”

“Yes, Chinese American!”

“It’s unbelievable, Mr. Guo is already an excellent writer at a young age!” To impress Rowling and to make Christopher Ritter fancy, even if he has not read Guo Shouyun’s book, Neil Murray can Guess some.

“Award! Compared to Ms. Rowling, I’m still far behind in writing!”

Even after receiving Bruce Guo’s memory, Guo Shouyun’s Chinese-style humility in his bones is still difficult to change.

But young people are humble and make a good impression wherever they go.

Just when Neil Murray nodded with a smile and was about to say something, Rowling had already walked over with the novel.

“Mr. Guo, you wrote a very good novel!”

Great talent is the best way to earn the respect of the elite. Rowling no doubt did the same.

“You won the prize. In this novel, I borrowed a lot from the setting of “Harry Potter”…!”

“No!” After interrupting him, Rowling shook her head, “Although I haven’t read it yet, the whole story takes place in the early 20th century. Except for some specific words, this is a completely new fantasy novel. .”

After a pause, Rowling glanced at Christopher next to her, “If you want Chris to help you publish, there is no problem, you don’t have to ask me for authorization!”

She thought that Christopher Ritter brought Guo Shouyun and showed her the novel, just to get her authorization and publish it smoothly.

However, neither Christopher Ritter nor Guo Shouyun meant to correct such a misunderstanding.

“Rowling, in addition to authorization. Bruce also wants to ask you some questions about the sequel to “Fantastic Beasts”!” Christopher Ritter said.

The later part of “Fantastic Beasts” is Guo Shouyun’s good excuse to approach Rowling. Although he has seen the movie, he has long known how to write at least the next two “Fantastic Beasts”. But at this moment, the biggest role of this novel is to allow him to successfully approach Rowling and win her favor.

“…In addition, he also has some wonderful ideas for the writing of the fifth and subsequent parts of “Harry Potter”, and would like to share with you!”

“Oh?”

Rowling was shocked, and her eyes focused on Guo Shouyun’s young face again. Having just watched “Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them”, she fully believes that Guo Shouyun has the ability to give some useful advice in the writing of “Harry Potter”. UU reading www.uukanshu.com

But just when she was about to speak, she was stopped by Neil Murray.

“My dear, it’s already half past six in the evening. As hosts, we can’t let the guests go hungry, can’t we? As for literary exchanges, I believe there will be many opportunities in the future!”

“Yeah, Rowling. Now I’m starving!” Christopher cooperated.

“Okay! Let’s have dinner first!”

After hesitating for a while, Rowling nodded.

With Christopher Ritter threading the needle in the middle, Guo Shouyun, Rowling, and Neil Murray gradually became familiar with each other. Especially during the meal, Guo Shouyun revealed a sentence or two about the follow-up part of “Harry Potter” from time to time, which attracted Rowling’s great interest.

Therefore, this meal can be described as a joy for the guests and hosts!

At nine o’clock in the evening, they left from Rowling’s house. On the way back to the hotel by car, Christopher Ritter gave Guo Shouyun a high-five with a smile.

“The communication on the first day was a complete success. Next, we will see if you can further arouse Rowling’s interest!”

“Haven’t we found a common topic?”

Guo Shouyun smiled.

“Hehe, that’s right! However, you have to be careful not to make Neil jealous. Otherwise, we’ll be ‘self-defeating’!” Christopher explained.

“Don’t worry, I’ll be careful!” Guo Shouyun frowned and thought for a while, “But to be on the safe side, you’d better find someone to pretend to be my girlfriend temporarily, and then introduce them to them in public. Come on, it’s easier to dispel Neil Murray’s suspicions!”

After thinking about it for a while, Christopher nodded in agreement.

“Don’t worry, leave this to me!”
