Chapter 57: Annoying Clients

I managed to escape, but the military training in the afternoon is definitely ruined. They won’t use that majestic arresting fist on me, right?

Jiang Qin arrived at the library, took off his hat and threw it on the table, feeling a lingering fear in his heart.

A professional soldier’s physique is no joke. If he had run a bit slower just now, he would have been caught up to.

Jiang Qin patted his chest and turned to glance at Feng Nanshu.

The little rich girl had run all the way with him, her perky nose beaded with sweat, her little face flushed red, giving off the impression of a water peach. After participating in military training for a week, she had also tanned a bit, but was still beautiful and exquisite, her flaws not concealing her charm.

No, what flaws?

Those were all flowers adding to her splendor!

Looking further down, mm…

The military training uniform was very loose, but the little rich girl had some assets.

Feng Nanshu pursed her red, moist lips. “Do I have to be good again today and find a book to read on my own?”

Jiang Qin nodded as before. “That’s right. I’ll be busy with something in a bit.”

“Okay.”

Feng Nanshu wiped the sweat from the tip of her nose, went to the bookshelf to get a book, came back, flipped it open and read two pages, then looked at Jiang Qin again with her clear eyes. “When I really want to talk to you, can I talk to you?”

“You really want to talk to me?” Jiang Qin was about to call Pang Hai, but after hearing this, his heart inexplicably trembled.

“Mm.”

“Forget it. If you want to be good then be good if you don’t want to be good making a little fuss is fine too but this is a library so no loud noises allowed.”

“I won’t be noisy.”

Actually, the little rich girl really wasn’t noisy at all. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have been so quiet that people would misunderstand her as being cold. But she always felt that when Jiang Qin said to be good, he meant for her not to make a sound, which made her feel a little aggrieved.

She actually really wanted to talk to Jiang Qin.

An eighteen-year-old girl in the prime of her youth had lived quietly to the point of being almost reclusive in her own little world, but after making a friend, she suddenly wanted to chatter endlessly.

But very strangely, when she was with Gao Wenhui, she didn’t really feel like talking.

Sigh, it must be because Wenhui talked too much, her mouth going dada nonstop, making it impossible for her to get a word in.

“I’ll take you to get milk tea in a bit.” Jiang Qin casually made a promise.

Feng Nanshu’s eyelashes trembled slightly. She felt that good people should have good rewards. “Do you still want to play with my feet?”

“Shh, this is a very private topic that can only be discussed after dark in a place with no one around!”

“Oh.”

“See, another free life hack for you. Where else can you find such a good friend?”

…

Pang Hai rushed to the university library ten minutes later. He had pedaled his bike the whole way and was already drenched in sweat by the time he arrived.

He also brought a sophomore girl from the design department named Lu Xuemei, Pang Hai’s little apprentice. When he was too busy with part-time jobs, she could lend a helping hand, but wasn’t capable enough yet to handle things independently.

Pang Hai brought her over to gain some knowledge and experience how to interact with clients.

Making money while also taking on an apprentice, Jiang Qin’s evaluation of Pang Hai instantly rose by a level.

Linchuan University deserved to be a key university. Not everyone was fully occupied with dating. There was also a large group of people who chose to work hard and pursue development. This was a normal campus atmosphere.

Then the three of them found a corner spot and conducted a series of discussions on the advertising fan’s promotional design.

To be honest, Jiang Qin wasn’t very satisfied with the effect this time because it was quite far from what he had envisioned.

“First, remove all these red and green geometric patterns.”

Pang Hai was slightly stunned and couldn’t help glancing at him. “If we remove these, it’ll be very plain. It can be said to have no design sense at all, only leaving the background color and text, and the picture will be very empty.”

Jiang Qin rubbed his chin. “Just enlarge the text a bit. Spread it in the middle, taking up about a third of the space.”

“Like this?”

Pang Hai operated the mouse and made some changes, presenting the effect Jiang Qin wanted. Seeing the revised design, Lu Xuemei couldn’t help frowning slightly.

She felt that this client didn’t understand commercial design.

Such a plain picture, with two large characters and a string of website addresses, the final result was too simple. It couldn’t even be considered a design and could be made with PowerPoint.

“Don’t make the font so complicated. Simplify it a bit more.” Jiang Qin pointed at the title on the screen.

Pang Hai silently began revising the draft. “Is this okay?”

Lu Xuemei finally couldn’t help speaking up. “Making changes like this completely loses the previous feel.”

Jiang Qin stared at the picture as if he hadn’t heard. “It’s still a bit too neat. Old Pang, can you use the transform tool to pull it a bit, give me the feeling that it’s jumping out of the picture, make it more eye-catching?”

“I can.”

Pang Hai continued operating the mouse, transforming and pulling the text, giving the entire text a bit of a three-dimensional feeling. Although it couldn’t achieve the effect of being lifelike, it at least had some meaning of leaping off the paper.

The more Lu Xuemei looked at it, the more uncomfortable she felt. “All the design elements are gone, and a five-cent deformation effect is added. There’s no aesthetic at all.”

“It really has lost its design sense, and after removing the previous main elements, it can’t achieve the advertising effect anymore. It’s more like an ordinary fan. Are you sure you want to change it like this?”

Pang Hai was a bit hesitant but also couldn’t directly say it wasn’t good. After all, no one wanted to offend the gold master.

But Lu Xuemei was different. Seeing that her master’s opinion was consistent with her own, she became much bolder. “Junior, I think what my master said makes sense. Since you’ve handed this matter to us, you should trust our professional ability.”

“…”

Lu Xuemei didn’t get a response and couldn’t help turning her head to look at Jiang Qin, only to find that Jiang Qin was currently tilting his head, gazing at a girl sitting in the reading area quietly reading a book.

That girl was really beautiful, beautiful enough to make one lose their mind.

But Lu Xuemei couldn’t help frowning slightly, thinking to herself, what kind of person was this?

They were just talking about serious matters, but he suddenly turned his head to look at a beauty. Was this really a decent person?

But what made her angriest wasn’t this. It was that the initial design was something her master had stayed up all night to create, but it was all deleted by his instructions. He had no trust in the designer at all. Wasn’t this the type of annoying client that was rumored about?

“What did you say just now?” Jiang Qin came back to his senses.

Lu Xuemei took a deep breath. “The revised design is too simple. It has no highlights at all and differs too much from the initial version my master made. I advise you to be cautious.”

Jiang Qin considered her point of view and pondered for a while before speaking. “How about this? Take the computer and go for a walk. Find a few random people and ask them which one looks better.”

“Then if everyone says my master’s looks better, you must use my master’s!” Lu Xuemei immediately put forward her own condition.

Jiang Qin immediately agreed. “Okay, we’ll go with what you say.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Xuemei immediately picked up the computer and without another word, walked towards the reading room full of college students.

“Xuemei is still relatively young, but her professional ability is sufficient.” Pang Hai added.

Jiang Qin nodded. “Let’s wait for her to come back before deciding which version to use.”

Five minutes later, Lu Xuemei returned to the original spot with the computer, a look of satisfaction already appearing on her face, seeming to have obtained the desired result.

Who knows how that popularity index upgrades? Why do I have so few?
