Tiger, whose own business was not doing well, harbored a grudge against Li Weidong and silently plotted the possibility of causing him trouble.
Li Weidong, however, didn't care at all.
He's busy with the publication of his autobiography!
Although Shen Xiaoyan took the blame, it was still his autobiography, and the publisher needed to proofread it. He, as the person involved, had to be present for many details.
The publishing house also took this matter very seriously.
After all, Li Weidong is no ordinary person. As someone who built such a large business at such a young age, it is no exaggeration to call him a legend.
His autobiography is bound to be a bestseller, and the government has even given special instructions to make sure it is taken seriously.
So, just after the seventh day of the Lunar New Year, the publisher sent people to ask Li Weidong to come and help proofread and revise the entire book.
Zhou Xiaoye, the original author, naturally had to follow suit.
This made Li Xiaoli extremely jealous.
"I should have gone earlier!"
She said angrily, "Now look what's happened, they've already gone out before the New Year is even over."
Zhao Xiulian said irritably, "Your brother already said that he wanted you to go with Xiao Ye to write articles. It's your own fault for not being able to endure the hardship. Who can you blame?"
He then tapped her forehead with another finger: "You brat, I haven't told you yet, your teacher said you have a serious imbalance in your subjects. You're okay with math, physics, and chemistry, but you just can't improve in the humanities."
"How come you, a girl, can't do well in humanities subjects?"
Li Weidong interjected, "If I had known it would turn out like this, I should have forced her to write a book with Ono last year. At least that would have helped her improve her skills."
Li Xiaoli quickly shook her head: "Then forget it. I hate writing essays the most. It makes me sleepy."
Feeling sleepy? Okay!
Li Weidong sneered: "The college entrance exam is this summer. You can continue to be sleepy and not study. Anyway, I'm telling you this."
“If you don’t get into university, come to the company and start as a salesperson. I’m not going to give you any special treatment.”
Li Xiaoli pouted: "Do you think I can't find a job if I don't go to your company?"
Li Weidong bluntly retorted, "What kind of good job can you find with just a high school diploma?"
"Let me tell you, times are changing and society is developing very fast. You think high school graduates are valuable? In a few years, high school graduates will still be unable to find jobs!"
Not only that, but future generations will become increasingly corrupt, and even college students will become worthless.
Li Xiaoli neither agreed nor disagreed, but she did pick up the book nonetheless.
...
Li Weidong was busy with the publishing house, while the company was left to Shen Xiaoyan; both of them were extremely busy.
February arrived in the blink of an eye.
In the season of blooming flowers and lush grass, Li Weidong's autobiography was finally printed and published.
The higher-ups attached great importance to this matter, after all, the autobiography was not only Li Weidong's autobiography, but also contained a lot of experience in planting fruits and vegetables, as well as entrepreneurial thoughts.
If young people buy these books and gain inspiration or experience from them, and learn to work hard, that's always a good thing.
Therefore, it took less than a month for this book to go from printing to being available in bookstores.
On the day the new book was released, Xinhua Bookstore specially held a book signing event and invited Li Weidong to attend.
"Tsk tsk tsk, our Weidong can be considered a writer now!"
Shen Xiaoyan smiled teasingly: "It's a book signing! Great author, why don't you sign my name first?"
As he spoke, he took out the book that he had prepared beforehand.
On the cover, Li Weidong's photo is particularly eye-catching, and the title is also quite bold: The Rise of the Legendary Vegetable King.
Exaggerated and straightforward.
Li Weidong protested at first, but he couldn't win against the publisher's editor and had no choice but to accept the shameful book title.
Now that Shen Xiaoyan had brought it out, his old face flushed again: "Where did you get this book?"
"My friend works at a publishing house, so is it strange that I'll take a copy first?"
As she spoke, Shen Xiaoyan shoved a pen into her hand: "Stop talking nonsense and sign it!"
"I want one too!"
Zhang Bin also joined in the fun.
Li Weidong was both amused and exasperated: "Alright, stop fooling around, I still have to get to the bookstore!"
Despite my reluctance, I still signed the book before hurriedly driving to the bookstore.
Zhang Bin laughed and said, "Sister Xiaoyan, Weidong is having a book signing today, aren't you going to join the fun?"
Shen Xiaoyan shook her head: "I would like to go, but I have so many things to do at the company, where would I find the time?"
As the company's reputation grows and its business expands, she, as the vice president, is incredibly busy!
Zhang Bin gloated: "Luckily, I'm a useless person who doesn't know anything except technology, otherwise I would be busy now too."
Shen Xiaoyan glared at her: "You think you can slack off? People from Dongfeng Village have come and say they want to cooperate. I'm busy, so you go and receive them!"
Zhang Bin let out a wail and resigned himself to his fate, going back to work.
...
bookstore.
Before Li Weidong even arrived, the bookstore was already packed with people, all craning their necks to look inside.
If the government hadn't specifically sent police to maintain order, the bookstore's doors would probably have been torn down by now.
Everyone was very excited and kept discussing it.
"Li Laosi, you can't even read, what are you doing here?"
"Does being illiterate mean you can't buy books? Wei Dong helps us make money growing greenhouse vegetables, so what's wrong with me supporting him by publishing a book?"
"Exactly! Even if you can't read, you'll still buy it and treat it like a precious artifact!"
“I can’t read, but my daughter can! I’ve already inquired about it. This book is about Mr. Li’s experience. I’ll buy it for my daughter to learn from.”
"My son also asked me to buy it, saying he wants to idolize Mr. Li!"
The common people all looked on with admiration for Li Weidong.
Besides these, many teachers and students were also queuing up.
When Li Weidong arrived, this was the scene he saw, and he couldn't help but feel a headache coming on.
Why are there so many people?
Someone shouted, "Wei Dong is here!"
The crowd immediately erupted in chaos, and the police had to shout several times to barely maintain order.
Xing Guodong suddenly appeared, trotting forward to open the car door for Li Weidong: "Brother Weidong, long time no see!"
He rose to the position of deputy director thanks to Li Weidong, and also served as the captain of the criminal investigation team. He was usually extremely busy, but today he specially squeezed out some time.
Li Weidong laughed: "Long time no see, why are there so many people?"
As they spoke, they glanced at a group of students in school uniforms not far away and were even more speechless: "Why are there students here? Shouldn't the school have just bought these?"
Xing Guodong waved his hand and said, "Don't even mention it. I told them to go back and that the school would order them all later and just circulate them in the classrooms. There was no need to buy them. But guess what happened?"
"Those students all said that you are their idol, so they wanted to see you and get your autograph!"
