Chapter 88 Lou Xiao'e Buys Books

Could it be that the book I wrote on project management system was published so quickly?

At this time, I saw that the comrades who had just chatted had walked to the counter and asked the salesperson: "Hello, comrade, do you have a book called "Project Management System" written by Gao Zhendong?"

The salesperson must have heard many people asking this question that day and was very impressed. He answered immediately: "Ah, yes, yes, comrade, you came quite early. There were not many of these books distributed to begin with, and there are only a few left now."

Several comrades who were buying books were overjoyed and quickly waved their hands: "Great, give me a copy, give me a copy."

The action and the tone were as if he was afraid the book would fly away.

Lou Xiao'e also heard the conversation here. She looked at Gao Zhendong, her eyes full of surprise and a little admiration. Writing a book is a big deal at any time. She didn't expect Gao Zhendong to do it so quietly.

She was still a little hesitant to confirm. What if they had the same name?
She asked Gao Zhendong cautiously: "Zhendong, did you write this?"

The voice was very soft, as if afraid that if it was louder, it would scare away the good news.

Gao Zhendong was also excited. Few technical people can remain calm after publishing a book, especially one he wrote that was a groundbreaking book.

Gao Zhendong suppressed his excitement and nodded: "It should be."

Lou Xiao'e was even more excited than he was, but she didn't do anything like hugging and kissing him in public. Instead, she turned around, rushed to the counter, and said to the salesperson, "Comrade, hurry up, I want as many copies of the Project Management System as you can get!"

The salesperson at this time, who had never tolerated such behavior of the nouveau riche, rolled his eyes and said, "All given to you, what do other comrades want to buy? Two at most, no more!!"

Lou Xiao'e didn't care: "Then two books, hurry up."

The salesperson wrote out a ticket: "Go, pay first!"

Lou Xiao'e ran over to pay the money and handed the ticket with the payment stamp on it to the salesperson.

The salesperson took out two copies of "Project Management System" that still smelled of ink and handed them to Lou Xiao'e. She put the book in front of her nose, took a deep breath, and smiled foolishly.

Gao Zhendong smiled when he saw her like this, and asked quietly, "Is it that serious?"

Lou Xiao'e wrinkled her nose and said, "Why not? This is the book you wrote."

Gao Zhendong smiled and said, "Then can I publish more books in the future?"

Lou Xiao'e nodded stupidly: "Okay, okay."

After the commotion, several comrades who were buying books nearby also saw Gao Zhendong. One of them's eyes lit up, and when Gao Zhendong and Lou Xiao'e were free, he walked over and asked.

"Hello, comrade. Are you Comrade Gao Zhendong? I met you at the seminar organized by the ministry."

Gao Zhendong nodded: "Hello, hello, I am Gao Zhendong."

At this moment, he became excited: "Everyone, come quickly, Comrade Gao Zhendong who wrote the book is here."

There was a burst of "booing", not only the few people who bought "Project Management System", but also many other customers started to speak in surprise and make a fuss.

After all, these days, there are a lot of books to read, but there are not many opportunities to see the authors of the books, and it is basically impossible to see both the book and the author together.

Several comrades who came to buy Gao Zhendong's books crowded over, vying to shake hands and introduce themselves.

"Hello, Senior Engineer. I am."

"Hello Comrade Gao, I am

"Hello, Teacher Gao, I am..." The scene suddenly became very lively. When the salesperson saw this, he did not dare to scold them. Those who can write books are people to be looked up to.

No wonder the girl said she wanted to buy all the books. It seems that these are her boyfriend's books, so that's not surprising.

Gao Zhendong exchanged greetings with a group of readers. One of them who recognized him made a request: "Mr. Gao, can you sign your book for me?"

Tsk, physical publication, signed books and sales. Gao Zhendong thought about the scene in the future. Did he think he had opened a coupon for experiencing the work of a famous author?

He didn't refuse. This was a good thing, wasn't it? He just wanted to improve his reputation. The higher his reputation, the more he dared to take out good things.

So he took out the Shanghai gold pen, which was given to him by Liang Faming and two other people.

He solemnly wrote a line on the title page of each book.

"To Comrade XXX: Work hard and strive to be the best. - Gao Zhendong"

The people who bought books happily took the books and said goodbye to Gao Zhendong one by one.

Lou Xiao'e took the book and didn't buy any other books. She happily pulled Gao Zhendong out of the Xinghua Bookstore.

She wanted to buy Gao Zhendong's book again. Although she could not buy many copies at a time, there were more than one Xinghua bookstore in the huge city of Beijing. She wanted to visit each one and buy from them.

The whole next day was spent in Lou Xiao'e's excitement. Seeing her so happy, Gao Zhendong followed her. After all, they were out to have fun, so they could do whatever they wanted. They could just treat it as an alternative cycling trip.

After the two had dinner in the evening, Gao Zhendong sent Lou Xiao'e home. There were already more than ten or twenty copies of "Project Management System" piled on the back seat of their car.

Lou Xiao'e was very ceremonial. She took a few books and asked Gao Zhendong to sign them.

Gao Zhendong signed his name "Gao Zhendong" on three of the books.

There was one book left, and he signed it slightly differently.

"To Xiao'e: This is the first one. Gao Zhendong"

It was like leaving a secret code that only he and Lou Xiao'e understood. The plain, dry and undecorated text revealed a bit of the romance of a science and engineering man.

Lou Xiao'e carefully put the treasure into her bag. Seeing that there was no one around, she happily stamped Gao Zhendong's face and pushed the cart into the house.

Gao Zhendong turned around and rode his bike home. He also kept a few copies for himself. He didn't know whether the Machinery Press would send him sample books, so he decided to keep a few copies as a souvenir.

Lou Xiao'e entered the house. Her parents were already used to her disappearing on weekends. They just watched her enter the house and were too lazy to ask any questions.

She was very excited, took two books, and handed one to each of her parents: "Here, your son-in-law's books, take a look, take a look."

Lou's mother rolled her eyes at her and said, "Shame on you!"

After he finished speaking, he suddenly realized, "What? Zhendong is writing a book?"

Father Lou also became serious, sat up straight, took Gao Zhendong's book and read it carefully, and praised as he read: "Young and promising, young and promising, good, well written. If I could have seen this book back then, I could have saved at least 10% of the money and 15% of the time when building this steel mill!"

Lou's mother didn't quite understand this, but Gao Zhendong wrote a very good book, which made her proud, so she was also very happy.

　Entering Sanjiang, I would like to thank everyone for their support along the way! ! !

　　It will be on the shelves next Monday. Whether you want to read it or just keep it in your pocket, please move your fingers then. I would like to be the first to pre-order it. Thank you very much.
