Chapter 164: Zhang the butcher died, no more hairy pigs
"Hey, you are such a fool. Why do you have to meddle in other people's business? It would be a shame if you lose your job." After hearing Li Quan's temper tantrum, Han Dong felt very sympathetic to Li Quan's situation. "I was thinking of asking you to treat us tonight, but forget it, I'll treat you."
Han Dong struggled to get up and went downstairs to buy fast food.
There are many rental houses here, and there are more than a dozen fast food restaurants in the alley not far from downstairs.
It's quite convenient for eating.
"Dongzi is a man of justice."
Li Quan couldn't help but sigh.
Not long after, Han Dong came back with a box lunch.
"I haven't found a job yet, so I only bought two ten-dollar meals. Let's make do with them."
Han Dong put a box lunch in front of Li Quan.
The cheapest lunch box costs ten yuan, which includes one meat and one vegetable.
"Thank you!"
If good brothers are polite to each other, it would be hypocritical. It is better to keep this feeling in mind and lend a helping hand when Han Dong needs help.
While eating, Li Quan opened his mobile phone and played Douyin.
I uploaded that short video at noon. Now it’s been an afternoon and I don’t know if I’ve gained any followers?
After clicking it, Li Quan was surprised to find the message column was 99+.
There are new updates on fans, likes, and comments.
First click on the fans column to check.
Many unfamiliar TikTok users followed his TikTok account. Too many to count.
Looking at the likes column, it received 23,000 likes.
Then came the comments, more than 400 of them.
Needless to say, these fans were attracted by the newly uploaded short video.
In addition, Li Quan promptly obtained official V certification, so no one would call him a liar this time.
Clicking on the "Me" column in the background, the newly uploaded video has been played 630,000 times in a short period of time. And it is still increasing.
While Li Quan was watching, he continued to receive new likes and comments.
Some people even sent him private messages directly.
"Doctor Li, are you really the Dr. Li who has been making headlines in the past few days?"
"Dr. Li, if you are genuine, then I will report you. Someone is using your name to defraud people."
"Hello, Doctor Li. Can I come to see you tomorrow? Do you have time?"
"Excuse me, which department are you in at Huier Hospital? I want to make an appointment with you. Please help me!"
…
These enthusiastic fans flooded Li Quan’s message board with messages.
He couldn't help but smile bitterly, not knowing whether he could continue working at Huier Hospital.
If he could not continue to stay at Huier Hospital, uploading a short video of treating patients every now and then to attract fans would be a good choice.
At that time, as soon as he gets his medical license, he can immediately prepare to open a private clinic.
Guaranteed booming business.
Tik Tok and other self-media platforms will become his best publicity platforms.
If you don't think about the future, you will have immediate worries.
If you manage your personal fans on the self-media platform well, you will always have a trump card in your hand, which can be used in many places in the future.
I selected a few messages that I was more interested in and responded to them, as there were simply too many other messages.
He couldn't answer them one by one.
After quitting the Douyin platform, Li Quan was thinking about future development directions while eating.
Sophie's parents looked down on him because he was poor.
As long as he seizes this opportunity of unexpectedly becoming popular on the self-media platform and makes good use of it, he believes that it won’t be long before he will also be among the ranks of the rich .
The night passed quickly without incident.
There was no news from the hospital yet, and no one called him.
I don’t know how it was handled?
In the blink of an eye, another three days passed. There was still no movement from the hospital. They neither notified Li Quan to return to work nor said they would fire him.
It was as if he had forgotten about this matter.
During these few days, Li Quan has been staying in the rental house reading books.
Sophie, the little girl, couldn't see him after get off work, so she couldn't help but call him from under the covers. The two of them talked on the phone for a long time.
After she learned that Li Quan was suspended for investigation, she not only did not despise Li Quan, but also comforted him.
I want to come and see him.
However, Li Quan refused.
Because people must have dignity and integrity. He made an agreement with Sophie's parents not to meet her privately before her birthday, and he would definitely keep his promise.
There has been no call from Ma Wangcai in the past few days.
Li Quan thought that he would take 100,000 yuan to meet Sophie's parents the day after tomorrow, so he decided to talk to Ma Wangcai again.
If it really doesn't work, we can only make some compromises.
The next morning, around nine o'clock, Li Quan estimated that Ma Wangcai should be at work.
Decided to take the initiative to call Ma Wangcai and have a talk.
Because he will take the money to meet Sophie's parents tomorrow. The only way he can think of is to take over Ma Wangcai's commercial endorsement.
No matter how harsh the conditions are, you have to accept it.
This is related to whether Li Quan can marry Sophie, a gentle, beautiful and considerate girl.
I called and it rang for a long time before the call was connected.
"Hello, Mr. Ma, I'm Li Quan!"
"Oh - it's Doctor Li, is there anything I can help you with?" Ma Wangcai's attitude seemed unusually cold.
Compared with the enthusiastic attitude six days ago, there is a world of difference.
"Well, I want to talk to you again about endorsements."
Li Quan felt Ma Wangcai's coldness and also witnessed the profit-seeking and ruthless faces of businessmen.
In order to raise enough money for the bride price, he chose to lower his standards.
"As for the endorsement, our pharmaceutical company already has a better candidate. But if you are willing, I can sign you for the sake of our acquaintance. The endorsement period is ten years, and our company will use your name to open accounts on various multimedia platforms and conduct identity verification. Then you will need to cooperate with the company to shoot various advertising videos. Also, during this period, you are not allowed to accept endorsements from any other company."
"If you agree, I can give you one hundred thousand."
The conditions offered by Ma Wangcai were more stringent than those in the previous few days.
"Mr. Ma, this is what you said in the contract you gave me a few days ago! Why has it changed again?" Li Quan couldn't help but feel extremely angry.
This Ma Wangcai bought so many things from Li Quan in ten years. He really thinks Li Quan has never seen money.
Li Quan’s current Douyin account has 370,000 followers.
Although it’s not a lot, it’s already considerable.
If the growth rate continues at this rate, Li Quan is confident that the number of followers will reach over one million within a month.
According to market prices, if one has one million fans, one can earn 25,000 yuan in advertising fees for any advertisement.
The new contract proposed by Ma Wangcai is simply a waste of resources.
"Hey, Doctor Li, we are all sensible people, so I will speak frankly. You want to marry Su Bingran's daughter, right? Did he ask you to make 100,000 yuan in a week?"
Ma Wangcai sneered smugly on the other end of the phone.
I didn't expect that he knew so much about Li Quan's affairs.
"Also, you have been suspended from the Whirlpool Hospital, right?"
This profiteer is really well-connected and knows everything.
"Well, so what?" Li Quan's voice also became cold.
The thing he least wanted in his life was to be coerced.
Ma Wangcai thought he had everything under control and could defeat Li Quan, but he was dreaming.
"Doctor Li, you should bow your head when you are under the roof! It's only because of my past relationship with you that I am willing to spend 100,000 yuan to hire you as my spokesperson. If it were someone else, I'm afraid no one would hire you even if you paid for it."
Ma Wangcai finally revealed his true ugly face.
"Haha, Mr. Ma, we have a saying from our hometown that we want to give you." Li Quan has completely given up the idea of cooperating with Ma Wangcai.
"What?" Ma Wangcai asked.
"Even if Butcher Zhang dies, I won't eat hairy pigs!" After Li Quan finished speaking, he heard Ma Wangcai's breathing on the other end of the phone become ten times heavier. Without waiting for Ma Wangcai to say anything more, Li Quan continued, "Goodbye."
Then he hung up the phone.
It can be imagined that Ma Wangcai must have been so angry that his face turned blue, and he might even slam the table and throw things.
