Medical Master

Chapter 855 - Frenemy!


Chapter 855 Frenemy!

Once the introduction was released, it went viral rapidly.

There was no doubt that people working in the publishing industry were the first to receive the information.

Earlier, some of them were still despising Fang Qiu and thinking that Fang Qiu couldn’t write a proper book, in the Wechat group. Soon, someone reposted the book introduction to this group.

Seeing this introduction, most of the people in the group fell silent.

“This… this book was written by Fang Qiu?”

“This introduction looks quite professional. The book should have been written by Fang Qiu, right?”

“As far as I’m concerned, in order to create a buzz, the publishing house must have asked someone to write the introduction for Fang Qiu. After all, there are a lot of editors in the house. It’s a piece of cake for them to do some research and write a fantastic introduction. As for the content, it’s not a problem to write by imitating the CG animation that Fang Qiu made before. Finding a ghostwriter is easy!”

“I don’t know if the introduction was written by Fang Qiu, but I heard that the book was written by Fang Qiu himself. The publishing industry of Jiangjing has spread the news. Fang Qiu spent more than ten days doing research and writing the articles in the library of their school. After a thorough investigation, every word of this book was indeed written by Fang Qiu.”

The people in Jiangjing’s publishing circles appeared immediately to confirm the news.

Now, people in the big Wechat group in the publishing industry suddenly lapsed into silence.

It was so embarrassing!

Earlier, they were saying that Fang Qiu was only out to make money and couldn’t write anything profound. In the blink of an eye, they were slapped in the face when they saw the introduction to his book!

It was an incredibly professional book about Chinese Medicine.

They had forgotten how peerless Fang Qiu’s medical skills were!

However, when it came to the matter of losing face, people always made every effort to deny it.

“It’s just a brief introduction. What else can it tell? It’s normal.”

“That’s right. Looking at the introduction, I can tell that it was the editor who helped him to rephrase it so that it will attract readers. It seems to be quite professional, but being professional will also mean that the book will be obscure. Moreover, it’s his first time writing a book. Even if it was published, there will be many people who can’t understand it!”

“Totally! Taking up a new job doesn’t mean that he will definitely succeed.”

“Maybe Fang Qiu will meet his Waterloo in our industry.”

“That’s right. No matter how excellent Fang Qiu’s medical skills are and how capable he is in the variety show, he is no more than a newcomer in the publishing industry. What I can think of is that the only book he can write is about Chinese Medicine. But in this day and age, how many people will read medical books? Ordinary people can’t even understand them. This medical book is only for students in Chinese Medicine schools.”

“Absolutely. People don’t even have enough time to read e-books these days. Who will spend money to buy a medical book that they can’t understand at all?”

The awkward atmosphere seemed to have been completely lightened, and everyone began to discuss enthusiastically.

At this moment, someone suddenly said.

“In fact, it’s not necessarily a bad thing to integrate into a new industry. After all, the current business in our industry is slack. It’s tough for us to make money in this industry now. Apart from that, we also have to respectfully treat those writers who have a market. To sign a popular writer, we almost had to go down on our knees. All of this is because the paper book market is too slack now.”

“There’s nothing we can do about it. Technology is developing, and the paper book will be eventually replaced by the e-book one day. We’re simply struggling and on the brink of collapse.”

“I hope that Fang Qiu can bring the slack paper book market back to life.”

The other members of the group also started to speak out when they heard that.

“Impossible.”

“Can anyone improve the paper book market?”

“Yes. Everyone knows what the paper book market is like now. It’s impossible to rely on one person to bring back the paper book. Unless the e-book completely disappears, the paper book market will continue to shrink.”

“If a star could bring a market back to life, the paper book market would have been very popular. Over the years, many big stars who were more popular than Fang Qiu tried writing books, but the market has been sluggish, and there is no improvement in sales at all.”

“No one can improve the paper book market!”

As they were talking, people in the group became dispirited.

They were working in this industry. It was true that the paper book market was shrinking. They were also dying to bring the market back to life again, and they wanted to greatly increase the readers’ passion for paper books.

Unfortunately, they couldn’t do it.

They didn’t believe that anyone could do it either!

People were still discussing on Weibo.

“He’s indeed a scholar. Is he writing a monograph?”

“I am eager to read it after reading the introduction. I’m really curious to find out what the book is about!”

“Although I don’t think I can understand this book, I will buy one to keep when this book is published. Maybe this will be the only book written by our Master Fang in his lifetime!”

“Haha, the master is so awesome. The introduction makes me feel as if there is a medical professor teaching us.”

“The introduction is out. What about the title of the book?”

“Why are they keeping the title a secret?”

“What Fang Qiu does is always confusing. I can’t figure it out at all,” Zhou Xiaotian said with a wry smile.

“Totally.” Sun Hao nodded repeatedly and echoed. “This guy can do anything for no reason. The key is that we don’t even know what is his purpose for doing all these things. I’m so depressed.”

“Fang must have his own reasons for doing this. Maybe we can’t see through it now. When we do, maybe it will be mind-blowing.” Zhu Benzheng chuckled.

“This introduction?” In the medical team in Comores, Jiang Miaoyu managed to get a break in her busy schedule. She quickly took out her phone and logged on to Weibo to check the situation at home. As soon as she logged in, she saw the brief introduction of Fang Qiu’s book on Weibo.

After reading it carefully, Jiang Miaoyu smiled.

Just as she had expected, Fang Qiu’s book must be particularly profound!

It seemed that it was different from any Chinese Medicine book in the market.

She knew that Fang Qiu would have written something profound about Chinese Medicine.

“It seems that the contents might be impressive.” In the Jingbei University of Chinese Medicine, looking at Fang Qiu’s introduction, Jiang Mengjie smiled. “It is indeed a good subject for a book.”

She added. “However, I will continue to follow in your footsteps. I hope that one day I can catch up with you.”

Meanwhile, Liu Qingshi reposted Fang Qiu’s book introduction and said, “My brother, Fang Qiu, is going to write a book. Guys, you must support him. My brother is a master, and the book he wrote must be the best. But he is still in college, so it is inevitable that he might have typos. Don’t forget to help him check the typos.”

As soon as this Weibo was posted, netizens left comments below happily.

“Haha, it’s indeed a fake brotherhood.”

“This is not called brotherhood, but frenemy, isn’t it?”

“Liu Qingshi did have some unique thoughts.”

“One is Master Liu and the other is Master Fang. Neither of them is easy to deal with. Haha, now I feel sorry for the director!”

Gu Jianguo, Zheng Weilian, Zhang Junhe, Huang Huachao, Ying’er, and the others also reposted Fang Qiu’s book introduction, helping him to promote his book.

After all, it was also because of Fang Qiu’s presence in the show that Run Wild&Survive’s ratings soared, which helped them gain enormous popularity.

How could they not seize the opportunity to help Fang Qiu?

At least, they had to build a good relationship with Fang Qiu.

No matter what happened in the future, it would be easier for them to do things if they had such a popular star as a friend.

Apart from these people, Song Yaqi also reposted initially. “I’m looking forward to Fang Qiu’s new book!”

It was just a simple sentence.

But it was enough publicity for Fang Qiu’s new book.

After all, Song Yaqi was also a celebrity with huge followings.

Fang Qiu was also browsing through the heated discussion on the Internet, but he didn’t intend to reply.

After browsing through Weibo, he checked on Douban.

He then found that most of the comments on Douban were positive, with most of the people looking forward to the book. Although there was only a brief introduction of the book without a title or cover, a lot of people still left their comments.

In addition to most of the people who expressed their expectations, there were also many people who said that they were waiting for Fang Qiu to be slapped in the face. They said that Fang Qiu was not capable of writing and that he was merely trying to make money by becoming involved in the publishing industry.

Fang Qiu was not in the least irritated by these comments. He just smiled.

“A month later, you will know what kind of book I have written. I’m sure you will all be shocked.”

With a smile, he turned off Douban and returned to Weibo.

He left his comments below the Weibo of those celebrities who reposted his introduction and helped him to promote his book. “I’ll send each of you a book. Don’t forget to recommend it to your fans.”

The netizens caught his comments immediately.

“You do live up to your reputation as Billion Fang who once attracted a large sum for investments. Your business sense is exceptional!”

“Damn. You won’t suffer any loss, will you?”

“It’s a good deal to give a book in exchange for a large number of fans buying it, isn’t it?”

“You are incredible, Fang Qiu!”

Seeing everyone’s replies, Fang Qiu couldn’t help laughing.

Then, he clicked on the private message.

After reading the private messages, he looked at the comments on Weibo that asked him where he would see patients next in the nationwide consultation. Then he quickly swiped down. Although there were too many private messages, Fang Qiu was very fast and read every message clearly.

In the end, he confirmed where he would do his next consultation—Lingchuan, Zhongzhou Province!

He thought to himself, “It’s about time to do consultations in the Chinese Medicine Hospital.”

After calculating the time, Fang Qiu called the Chinese Medicine Hospital. He wanted the people of the Chinese Medicine Hospital to help him contact the Chinese Medicine Hospital in Lingchuan. However, he was told to contact the hospital himself because they had tried to contact many hospitals in various places. The people from those hospitals were only willing to talk to Fang Qiu personally and did not accept the agreement among the hospitals.

He had no choice.

Fang Qiu could only ask for the phone number of the Chinese Medicine Hospital in Lingchuan and then took the initiative to contact them.

The call was connected.

Soon, someone answered.

“Hello, this is Lingchuan Chinese Medicine Hospital.”

An official sounding voice came from the other end of the phone, asking, “May I help you?”

“Hello, I’m Fang Qiu,” Fang Qiu said directly, “I want to discuss with your hospital about my consultation arrangements in your hospital.”

“Beep, beep, beep… ” As soon as he finished speaking, the call was disconnected.

He seemed to hear something before he was disconnected. “Lunatic!”

Fang Qiu was speechless.
