In this paper, the following result is shown: For any integer \(\tau\geq 1\) there exists a twistor space \(Z\) over \(4\mathbb C\mathbb P^2\) with the following properties: There exists an irreducible smooth real fundamental divisor \(S\in |-\frac{1}{2}K_Z|\) and a smooth elliptic curve \(C\in |K_S|\) such that the order of the normal bundle \(N_{C|S}\) in Pic\(^0C\) is \(\tau\). This completely solves an open problem formulated in the paper [\textit{F. Campana} and \textit{B. Kreußler}, Proc. Am. Math. Soc. 127, No. 9, 2633-2642 (1999; Zbl 0938.32015)] where it was shown that the algebraic dimension \(a(Z)\) is two if and only if the order of \(N_{C|S}\) is finite. The main tool of the author is his generalization [\textit{N. Honda}, Osaka J. Math. 36, No. 3, 641-672 (1999)] of the deformation method introduced by \textit{S. Donaldson} and \textit{R. Friedman} [Nonlinearity 2, No. 2, 197-239 (1989; Zbl 0671.53029)]. He shows the unobstructedness of the deformation problem for pairs and triples of certain singular spaces obtained by gluing a blow-up of a twistor space over \(3\mathbb C\mathbb P^2\) (a double solid) with the blow-up of the twistor space over \(\mathbb C\mathbb P^2\) (the flag variety). The different values for the order of \(N_{C|S}\) are obtained by a careful choice of the blown-up twistor line in the double solid.
