Dad, I understand.” Zhang Ye naturally understood.
Mom curled her lips and ignored her husband. She sat down and scooped food for her son, “Eat more.”
Knock, knock, knock. Someone was knocking on the door.
“Who is it?” Mom went to open the door.
It was their neighbor, Auntie Liu. She smiled. “My husband said he happened to see Little Ye come home around the corner just now. Eh, Little Ye is eating?”
Zhang Ye put down his chopsticks, “Auntie Liu!”
“He just came back. He had a signing event in the morning.” Mom said proudly.
Auntie Liu chuckled, “I came here for this matter. All of you know my husband likes to write. He especially loves Little Ye’s poems. He is embarrassed to come over, so he got me to ask. Is there any more of the Compilation?”
“There are plenty.” Mom spoke for her son.
Auntie Liu said, “That’s great. By the way, Little Ye must sign it for me. This book needs to be properly kept.”
Zhang Ye of course did not disagree. He stopped eating, got a book of “Zhang Ye’s Compilation” from his bag and signed on it. After sending Auntie Liu away, he returned to his meal.
Mom was extremely pleased, “Look at my son. He doesn’t let me down!”
Dad switched on the television, “That’s because I educated him well. If he had learned from you, who knows what would happen?”
“Hey, enough of that. What did you teach him? Since he was young, wasn’t I the one getting him to study?” Mom cut him off and said to Zhang Ye, “Son, how many books do you have? Leave them for me and sign all of them. Neighbors would probably come these few days, so I definitely have to give them a few books. I also need to give some to my colleagues. Give me how many you have. Don’t hide them.”
“Got it.” Zhang Ye was done eating.
Today’s signing event had given Zhang Ye the sweet taste of being a celebrity. It made his decision on becoming the number one celebrity of this world even more firm with the hot sales of “Zhang Ye’s Compilation” and with the movie, “The Great Pugilistic World” done filming. They were in the midst of promotion with a few promotion picks with Zhang Ye dressed in ancient costumes at the corner of the poster. His name was also listed on the cast list. With the popularity of the video “Little Qingshan’s Zen Exchange”, his exposure had once again increased these few days. The decrease in his popularity the past few days had finally stabilized.
But it had only stabilized. It was not enough!
Zhang Ye did not want to stay on the same spot. He needed to find a move that allowed his popularity to increase and last for a long while. He was frowning with urgency about this!
