Nearly half a year after the first burst of news about the 20,000 € award given by UPF Emprèn 2010-Fundació Banc Sabadell for her project of a publishing company aimed at producing educational materials for the Chinese children adopted by Catalan families, Chinese-Catalan young entepreneur Jiajia Wang Liu appeared again in the Catalan press. El Periódico published an interview with her on Sunday May 8th, 2011, where she again explains her own personal story of hard work and struggle until she received a grant to study at the prestigious Harvard University and later she received the funding for her personal project. Nowadays, publishing company Jiajia Edicions has already become a reality and is already selling the first book through internet and directly to schools. Jiajia Wang Liu finishes the interview by explaining how the influence of Chinese culture is still a big influence on her daily life through her family, in issues such as the personal relationships. Despite the fact that she is sensitive to family claims, she acknowledges that she does not fancy living a life planned by others.
