After Hua Yuan Pharmaceutical Corporation came to an agreement with Complex Characters Culture Publishing Company, Yang Ningyuan immediately asked someone to announce the news on their official website and official Weibo account.
“Great sales campaign! During the Spring Festival, if you buy a box of Trillium Root-Securing Pill or Life-prolonging Earth Pill, you’ll get one copy of Fang Qiu’s new book, Chinese Medicine in Human Body, for free!”
As the news came out, it immediately caused a heated discussion on the Internet.
“What a tycoon he is. He is so nice to his friends.”
“What the heck. Is Yang Ningyuan helping Fang Qiu sell his book?”
“Buying one box of pills can get one free copy of the book?”
“Perfect timing. Anyway, I happen to need some gifts for the New Year. I can get a book if I buy the medicine, and I don’t have to order a book at the bookstore.”
For a moment, everyone commented one after another.
Although that was the case, it was undeniable that Fang Qiu’s new book, Chinese Medicine in Human Body, was so popular these two days. Therefore, to get a copy of the book, many people who needed to buy gifts all placed orders on the official website of Hua Yuan Pharmaceutical Corporation.
Originally, after several rounds of hunger marketing, the sales of the two health care products were gradually stabilized. With the marketing of this combination, the sales rose again!
It made Yang Ningyuan grin from ear to ear.
Meanwhile, the list of the banned books was finally released.
Everyone in the publishing industry read it and found that Fang Qiu’s book was not on the list. This time, everyone in the publishing industry was shocked!
Fang Qiu’s book was not banned.
Could it be that the government also liked this kind of book?
All the major publishing companies wrote introductions and tried to apply for ISBN, trying to follow the trend, but they failed to get one.
This time, everyone in the publishing industry was dumbfounded!
“What’s going on?”
“How could this be?”
“Why can’t we publish such a book when Fang Qiu can?”
“Fang Qiu’s book has been officially sold on the market. Why don’t they approve our ISBN application to publish a similar book?”
“What the hell is going on?”
For a moment, everyone in the publishing industry was confused and didn’t know what was going on.
Helplessly, people of all the publishing companies instantly sent someone to inquire about it.
When they found the person in charge of the review, he only replied, “It’s useless asking me. I also want to know what’s going on. Chinese Medicine in Human Body was on the original list, but it has been removed from the list by higher-ups.”
Hearing that, all the people in the publishing industry were shocked.
“What does that mean?”
“They removed it from the list?”
“What the f*ck. Does this mean that someone in the government is backing Fang Qiu up?”
Countless people were shocked.
No one expected that Fang Qiu had such a connection. No wonder he dared to write this kind of book so openly. It turned out that he had nothing to fear!
Before they could process the news, the Internet was in an uproar again.
It was all because of one post from Fang Qiu!
“Thank you very much for your support and love for Chinese Medicine in Human Body. I decided to donate all of my contribution fees of the book, 31.5 million yuan, to the poor mountainous areas. I hope they can have a wonderful Spring Festival.”
Everyone was stunned by the news.
“What the f*ck. Did he donate again? Did he donate for fun?”
“He has good virtues. This is a good thing!”
“Does Fang Qiu actually earn so much money from one book?”
“That’s awesome. Master Fang Qiu, I’m rooting for you. You can donate as you want. You’re a real man!”
“You deserve the title, Billion Fang. I live in Nanjiang. I want to thank you on behalf of the people in the poor mountainous areas!”
“You should at least keep a little for yourself. You always donate all the money you earned. What are you going to spend?”
Everyone was paying Fang Qiu compliments. Meanwhile, the people living in remote mountainous areas were also thanking Fang Qiu on behalf of the poor people in the poverty-stricken mountainous areas.
Meanwhile, Fang Qiu’s fans also took pity on him.
They knew that Fang Qiu liked to do good deeds and they were proud of what he had done, but they always felt that Fang Qiu should be nicer to himself. He couldn’t always set his own life aside just to do good deeds.
In Beijiang, after sending the post on Weibo, Fang Qiu immediately called He Xue.
Picking up the phone, He Xue asked, “Hello? What’s the matter?”
Fang Qiu nodded and said, “Let’s talk face to face.”
“Okay, I’ll be right there.” He Xue agreed and immediately rushed to the office.
Soon, she arrived at the office.
“What’s wrong, Boss? What do you want me to do?” Walking into the office, He Xue stared at Fang Qiu and asked.
“I hope you can help me purchase some clothes, rice, grain, oil, and other basic necessities online,” said Fang Qiu.
“What? Is it starting already?” He Xue shook her phone, and on the screen was Fang Qiu’s latest Weibo post.
Fang Qiu nodded and said, “Yes. The Spring Festival is around the corner. The most important thing is to help the people in the mountainous areas enjoy a wonderful Spring Festival.”
“Okay, kid.” Nodding her head, He Xue replied, “I didn’t know that you were so generous, but I actually hope that you’re not so generous. Otherwise, I can’t imagine how much money you will donate on the day you announce the establishment of the company!”
“Let’s talk about it later,” Fang Qiu said with a bland smile.
Back then, for the apprenticeship fee of 300,000 yuan, he had been worried about it for a long time and finally managed to collect enough money.
But today, money didn’t mean much to Fang Qiu. It was just some figures.
It was just a pile of waste paper if it couldn’t be used to help people.
He Xue asked, “After buying those things, how are you going to deliver them to the mountainous areas? Or should I ask the supplier to send them directly to the mountainous areas when making the orders so that you can find someone to receive and distribute them?”
“No. Just buy them first. I’ll think of a way to distribute them,” said Fang Qiu.
“Okay.” He Xue nodded in understanding and turned to leave.
After He Xue left, Fang Qiu immediately took out his phone and called Wei Dong.
“Hello?” The phone was soon picked up and Wei Dong’s voice came from the other end of the line.
“How are you doing recently?” Fang Qiu asked with a smile.
“Very fulfilling,” Wei Dong said with a smile. “I met a lot of children, studied with them, and played games with them. I enjoyed seeing their innocent smiles.”
“It seems that the distribution of books goes smoothly?” said Fang Qiu gratifiedly.
“Yes, everything went smoothly.” Wei Dong nodded.
“I’m calling you this time because there’s something I hope you can help me with,” said Fang Qiu.
“What is it? Tell me,” replied Wei Dong.
“Didn’t I say that there would be another batch of follow-up supplies? Now we got them, and I hope that you can help me to send some special purchases for the Spring Festival to the people of poor mountainous areas where you sent books before so that they can enjoy a wonderful festival.”
Speaking of this, Fang Qiu paused and continued, “Originally, I should do it myself, but I have something more important to do, so I can only ask you to help me do it.”
“No problem,” Wei Dong immediately nodded and said. “This is what I promised you to do before. It’s what I should do. I’m very happy to help people in the poor mountainous areas have a nice festival. Thank you for giving me this opportunity and thank you for everything you’ve done.”
Fang Qiu asked, “What about you? Where are you going to spend the Spring Festival?”
Wei Dong hesitated for a moment and then said, “I… I want to go back to my hometown and kowtow to my parents’ tombs.”
“Okay.” Fang Qiu fell silent for a moment and then nodded with understanding.
Wei Dong was a real man who valued his family so much.
After hanging up the phone, Fang Qiu began to make an annual summary.
In the past year, the cultivation base had developed rapidly, and next year, there would be snow lotuses. He believed that the business would soar greatly.
At the moment, while the heated discussion about Chinese Medicine in Human Body was still going on, there was another piece of news online.
“Reliable Source! Fang Qiu didn’t take part in the second rehearsal of the New Year’s Gala! Has he been eliminated?”
It was a very famous gossip reporter who released the news.
He not only posted this news but also posted many photos of the second rehearsal of the New Year’s Gala, among which, people did not see Fang Qiu.
Originally, everyone was waiting to see what kind of show Fang Qiu was going to perform at the New Year’s Gala because almost everyone subconsciously thought that Fang Qiu was sure to perform at the New Year’s Gala.
But they didn’t expect such a piece of news to come out now.
The Internet was suddenly in an uproar as people saw the news!
“What’s going on?”
“Is Fang Qiu really not going to perform at the New Year’s Gala?”
“Are they kidding us? They said he was going to perform at the gala, and now he’s not?”
“That’s impossible. It would be a pity if Fang Qiu didn’t perform at the New Year’s Gala!”
“Without Fang Qiu performing at it, I won’t watch the New Year’s Gala. Anyway, I’ve been playing computer games and mobile phone games when watching the New Year’s Gala in recent years.”
“Fang Qiu didn’t even take part in the rehearsal. It seems that he has really been eliminated!”
“Everyone knows how strict the program requirements of the New Year’s Gala are. Either Fang Qiu performed perfectly in the first rehearsal, or he was eliminated after that. Anyway, I think the possibility of him being eliminated is higher. From the New Year’s Galas in the past few years, every show is strictly reviewed. Even if one performs perfectly in the rehearsals, they still need to rehearsal repeatedly to see whether their shows are suitable for the New Year’s Gala, because no flaws are allowed on the stage!”
“But no one has ever said that Fang Qiu participated in the first rehearsal. He just appeared on the scene of the first rehearsal!”
For a moment, a large number of netizens began to analyze it.
Apart from the netizens, the media staff also went to ask for help, trying to get some information from the staff of Central Television and the crew preparing the New Year’s Gala.
No matter how they pulled strings, including treating people to meals, sending gifts, and so on, the staff of the New Year’s Gala always kept silent. No one dared to reveal a single word of this matter.
Some media reporters even went straight to Director Li Huawen.
As a director, it was even more impossible for Li Huawen to reveal anything.
Under such circumstances, everyone was getting more and more curious about whether Fang Qiu would perform at the New Year’s Gala or not.
Just when everyone on the Internet was full of curiosity and doubt, in Beijiang, Fang Qiu directly booked a flight ticket to Comores.
It would be the Spring Festival soon, and Jiang Miaoyu was still providing medical assistance there. Although the government of Comores could ensure Jiang Miaoyu’s safety, they could not give her the warm feelings of home.
The Spring Festival was the most important festival in Huaxia.
Although Fang Qiu couldn’t accompany Jiang Miaoyu during the Spring Festival, he could stay with her before the arrival of the festival so that she wouldn’t feel lonely on this holiday when people were going to miss their family.
Of course, before going there, Fang Qiu didn’t inform Jiang Miaoyu but quietly went there.
When he arrived, it was in the morning.
Fang Qiu came to the medical aid team’s base, a place he was familiar with. From a distance, he saw that Jiang Miaoyu, who wasn’t seeing patients, was leaning against the wall outside her dormitory and sitting on a particularly short wooden stool. She was basking in the sun and reading a book in her hand.
He took a closer look.
The book was Chinese Medicine in Human Body!
Seeing this, Fang Qiu couldn’t help but smile and walked up to her quietly. He stood quietly beside her and looked soulfully at her, who was glowing under the sunlight.
When someone passed by, Fang Qiu made a gesture of shushing them, asking them not to disturb Jiang Miaoyu.
“Phew… Well written.” After a long while, Jiang Miaoyu seemed to be tired. She let out a long breath, then raised her head and twisted her neck. When she was about to raise her hand to do the eye exercises, she was stunned.
Then, she shifted her gaze aside.
She looked at the person standing beside her in surprise and fear.
“Whoosh!” At the next moment, Jiang Miaoyu suddenly rose to her feet and looked incredulously at the face that was brimming with tenderness under the morning sun.
“Are, are you real?” While speaking, Jiang Miaoyu couldn’t help reaching out to touch Fang Qiu’s face.
“I’m fake.” Without hesitation, Fang Qiu directly held Jiang Miaoyu in his arms and said, “It hasn’t been a long time since we last saw each other. But your brain has stopped working.”
“It really is you! It is you!” Jiang Miaoyu was exhilarated. She hugged Fang Qiu with both hands tightly and asked excitedly, “Why are you here?”
“Because of you.” Fang Qiu smiled and reached out to cup Jiang Miaoyu’s face, saying, “Because I miss you. I miss you very much.”
“Me too. I miss you too.” Jiang Miaoyu buried her head in Fang Qiu’s arms and smiled extremely happily.
