Chapter 118 Nonsense!

Dong Xin's cheeks flushed slightly, and she glared at her: "You're talking nonsense! I... I just said Jiang Yang promised to help me revise the manuscript, but he never showed up, so..."

Jiang Yang quickly apologized, "I'm sorry, Dong Xin, I've been so busy lately. How about this, I'll handle the literary club matters in the next couple of days, and we can put the company matters aside for now."

Dong Xin asked with some concern: "Won't this affect your startup? I heard your company is going through a critical period right now..."

"It's alright," Jiang Yang smiled confidently. "The company is back on track now. Besides, I've hired an assistant, and my roommates are helping out. They can handle most of the problems."

He paused, then added, "Even if there's something they can't solve, they'll tell me."

Dong Xin finally felt relieved and grabbed his arm, looking a little hesitant: "Jiang Yang, actually... the literary society has a few small problems right now, and Lin Wei and I are unsure what to do. We wanted to ask for your opinion..."

Jiang Yang was taken aback for a moment, then laughed heartily: "What question? Just say it! I'll answer everything I know!"

Dong Xin pointed to a stack of newspapers on the table and said, "This is it... the college newspaper. We've only published a few issues so far, and some parts are still a bit immature..."

Lin Wei chimed in, adding, "Yes, although they're not major issues, they were all raised by our classmates, and we'd like to make some improvements..."

Jiang Yang picked up the latest newspaper and carefully flipped through it.

He saw the problem immediately.

The layout is somewhat messy, the font sizes are inconsistent, and the overall appearance is not very aesthetically pleasing.

He pointed to one of the pages and said, "Here, the title could be enlarged, and bolding it would make it stand out more. Also, here, a blank line between paragraphs would make it look more comfortable..."

As he spoke, he picked up a pen and began making corrections on the newspaper.

Dong Xin and Lin Wei watched in stunned silence, their eyes filled with admiration.

Jiang Yang quickly solved the layout problem, then picked up another newspaper, his face gradually darkening.

"Why are there so many ads?"

He pointed to the dense advertisements in the newspaper, his tone somewhat displeased.

Dong Xin immediately blushed and explained in a low voice, "Well... because... because the bid was higher..."

Lin Wei said with a grin, "Yes, Jiang Yang, you know the literary society is short on funds right now, and these advertising fees have come to our rescue! Besides, these businesses approached us first, so we couldn't very well refuse..."

"Even if the other side offers a higher price, you can't turn the entire back page of the school magazine into an advertisement!" Jiang Yang said coldly, his tone tinged with anger.

Lin Wei and Dong Xin were both stunned; they hadn't expected Jiang Yang to react so strongly.

Jiang Yang picked up the last page of the school magazine again. Half of it was filled with advertisements from students who were starting businesses on campus, while the other half was filled with advertisements from outside companies. The colorful and varied advertisements were dizzying to look at.

He slammed the school magazine down on the table with a loud "thud".

Dong Xin shrank back in fright.

Lin Wei, feeling somewhat aggrieved, whispered in defense, "But... these advertising fees are very important to the literary society..."

“I know that advertising is to help students who are starting their own businesses and can also bring funds to the literary society. I agreed with it at the time.” Jiang Yang’s tone softened a bit, but he was still serious.

"But Lin Wei, by doing this, people who would normally pay attention to the school magazine will stop reading it."

He pointed to the densely packed advertisements, "After all, they're all ads, so there's no point in them looking at them."

Lin Wei's expression turned somewhat grim; she hadn't expected this outcome.

She panicked and stammered, "Then...what should I do? Jiang Yang, can you teach me how to correct this?"

Jiang Yang sighed inwardly as he looked at her flustered appearance.

This girl is still too young and doesn't think things through before acting.

"We still need to stick to my original plan: the ads should only be placed in the middle section, not as a separate section," Jiang Yang patiently explained.

“But… if we do that, we won’t be able to run as many ads…” Lin Wei hesitated.

"The school magazine isn't for you to use for a one-off sale," Jiang Yang said, his tone becoming more serious.

"You have to know how to take it slow and steady. Only by building up your reputation gradually can you get better and better."

He paused, his gaze sharp as he stared at Lin Wei. "You're acting like you're about to graduate and are trying to squeeze some money out of the school one last time, then you don't care what happens to the school magazine after you leave."

Lin Wei's face flushed red instantly, and her eyes became a little moist.

She bit her lip and said, feeling wronged, "Jiang Yang, what you said went too far! I... I didn't mean to... I just... have no experience with this..."

"That's why we asked Jiang Yang to come and help us. Otherwise, with just the two of us, we don't know what kind of mess we would have made of the school magazine!" Dong Xin quickly tried to smooth things over.

Lin Wei sniffed, seemingly still feeling wronged by Jiang Yang's words.

Jiang Yang was puzzled by Dong Xin's words: "Although Zhuang Yan'an is gone, the literary society can't just have the two of you left, right? Where are the others?"

“The others…” Lin Wei pursed her lips, “Do you think news is so easy to find? Don’t you have to send people out to run errands and conduct on-site interviews to find news material?”

She paused, a hint of smugness in her voice: "They've all gone out to find news. They'll come back and tell me when they find something big!"

Jiang Yang shook his head helplessly: "Lin Wei, you're thinking too simply."

"What do you mean?" Lin Wei immediately became anxious upon hearing this.

"Even if you have a better method, you can't look down on the method I came up with!"

Jiang Yang felt a headache coming on.

Why does this girl explode at the slightest provocation?

Just as he was about to explain, Dong Xin quickly tugged at his sleeve and whispered, "This method was something Lin Wei went through a lot of trouble to come up with. If you just say it like that, she'll be unhappy."

Lin Wei glared at Jiang Yang: "I'm not that fragile! But you have to give me an explanation today, or this won't end here!"

"Lin Wei, you're asking a bunch of college students who haven't graduated yet to find news, and they're from all different majors. Isn't that a joke?" Jiang Yang sighed helplessly.

"A group of people who have barely read a few newspapers, do they even know what news is?"

Lin Wei pouted, unconvinced, and said, "Well... well, we have to give it a try!"

Jiang Yang shook his head: "Even if you send a group of journalism students, they won't be able to produce anything useful without experience."

Lin Wei's momentum weakened, and she became somewhat dejected: "Then... then what do you suggest we do? Do you have a good idea?"

Jiang Yang smiled confidently: "Of course, we can pay to buy news."
