Yukinoshita's Correction Method

Otherwise, it would be too noisy if the leaders were speaking while the people below were munching on sunflower seeds.

"Choco, fruit candies, soft rice crackers... and they're all individually wrapped." Dong Yunshan took the shopping bag from her hand and checked it. "That's good."

"Hmph~" Iroha Isshiki put her hands on her hips smugly, "After all, I'm the manager of the Soccer Club."

"You've worked hard." Dong Yunshan said, carrying the shopping bags. "Let's go."

"It's so natural to just take it and carry it." Iroha Isshiki quickly caught up. "Has it become a habit?"

"I've always been physically fitter than my peers since I was little," Dong Yunshan said, glancing at the shopping bag. "The capable should do more."

The first floor of the community center is relatively quiet because it houses a library.

The second floor is a bit noisier, and you can faintly hear music.

Arriving at the conference room door, Iroha Isshiki raised her hand and knocked. After hearing a response from inside, she took a deep breath before opening the door.

The noise from the crowd suddenly grew louder, Iroha Isshiki waved energetically, saying, "Thank you for your hard work, everyone!"

Someone responded, and from among the group chatting animatedly, a boy in the uniform of Seaside Comprehensive High School raised his hand. "Iroha, over here, over here."

"Ah, hello~" Iroha Isshiki led Dong Yunshan over.

Because of his height, everyone's attention naturally fell on Dong Yunshan.

The boy looked at Iroha Isshiki: "And who is this?"

"He's our helper," Iroha Isshiki introduced. "He's my senior— Dong Yunshan. And this is..."

Dong Yunshan smiled and said, "Let's work hard together."

"Yes, that's exactly the feeling I'm looking for." Tamanawa waved her hand back and forth. "It's wonderful to be able to organize an event with Sobu High School! I've been thinking about whether we can build a cooperative relationship based on mutual respect and leverage synergy..."

Dong Yunshan narrowed her eyes slightly. "Oh?"

This sounds familiar.

As the Student Council of the Seaside Comprehensive High School, Tamanawa made a sound, and people gathered around, creating a noisy commotion like gongs and drums.

After exchanging pleasantries, they each took their seats.

The Seaside Comprehensive High School has ten students, while Sobu High School, including Dong Yunshan, only has five.

The other three are a short-haired boy, and the vice president of the Student Council of Sobu High School —Honmu Muren.

Sawako Fujisawa, a girl with double braids and glasses, is the Student Council secretary of Sobu High School.

Inamura Jun, a boy with a buzz cut and the Student Council secretary of Sobu High School.

The three of them were not in high spirits, or rather, they were dejected.

Tamanawa announced skillfully, "Well then, let's begin the meeting. Please feel free to offer your guidance."

A Student Council member from Seaside Comprehensive High School stands in front of a whiteboard and writes with a marker.

"Just like last time, we'll start with a brainstorming session." Tamanawa glanced at the whiteboard out of the corner of her eye. "Continuing from last time, please share your ideas on the concept and content of the activity..."

Students from Seaside Comprehensive High School raised their hands to speak:

"Considering the needs of today's high school students, we must stimulate mind innovation in young people..."

"In that case, we need to first establish a win-win relationship between us and the local community, and think from that perspective."

"Therefore, we need to consider cost-performance from a strategic perspective, and then reach a consensus..."

Dong Yunshan pressed his temples, his gaze gradually becoming irritable.

What's the point of this kind of meeting?

"Everyone, this conversation can't go on like this." Tamanawa's tone was heavy, causing the atmosphere to cool down. Under everyone's gaze, Tamanawa waved his hands wildly in the air, "We should use logical thinking to consider the problem from a theoretical level, we should think from the customer's perspective, from the customer's side..."

The students from Seaside Comprehensive High School looked enlightened, their eyes shining as they stared at the Tamanawa, and even more ideas were sparked within them:

"In that case, outsourcing should also be taken into consideration."

"However, based on the current method, it's difficult to fit it into the scheme."

"In that case, we might need to reschedule, right?"

Dong Yunshan: "?"

Chapter 621 Meeting Gap

The arrival of Cloud Snow Tea interrupted the meeting, and a break was scheduled.

"Senior~" Iroha Isshiki approached Dong Yunshan, "Do you understand the general situation?"

Dong Yunshan clicked his tongue. "I completely understand now."

"Senior is so amazing!" Iroha Isshiki's eyes sparkled. "I don't understand any of what they're saying, but it seems like as long as I say things like 'Wow, that's amazing!' or 'I'll do my best too!' they get super happy! And then I reply to the occasional text message they send, and that's about it."

"Didn't you handle it quite well?" Dong Yunshan narrowed his eyes slightly. "But in my experience..."

"Iroha." As she spoke, Tamanawa walked over, a stack of documents on the ground. "How about I give you this too? We've already finished the main parts."

"Ah, okay!" Iroha Isshiki took the document and gave a perfunctory smile.

"Then please," Tamanawa laughed heartily, "If there's anything you don't understand, just ask me, and I'll teach you properly."

"Alright, let's begin!" Iroha Isshiki organized the materials and distributed them to the Student Council officers. "So, our task is to compile the meeting minutes—thank you all for your help."

In contrast to the cheerful and bustling scene on the other side, the Student Council members of Sobu High School reacted indifferently and silently began their work.

Iroha Isshiki took a copy of the meeting minutes, a schedule for the future, and a checklist to confirm the progress of the work.

Dong Yunshan quickly flipped through it. "... As expected."

Iroha Isshiki cast a questioning look at her. "Senior?"

Dong Yunshan put down the documents. "You didn't understand the meeting just now, did you? Let me help you analyze the underlying logic."

"... What?"

"Essentially, this was a typical case of high-input, low-conversion negative collaboration. Forcibly inserting a large number of unnecessary English terms into the core communication chain created informational bottlenecks that not only failed to empower communication but also led to a surge in information entropy and a sharp drop in the signal-to-noise ratio, severely diluting the meeting's effective efficiency," Dong Yunshan explained knowledgeably. "The core problem lies in the lack of concrete means to break down and implement pseudo-demand terminology and unquantifiable strategic assumptions, resulting in blurred demand boundaries. The self-indulgent discussions on the demand side created an ineffective communication loop, making the final execution path and delivery standards completely misaligned and unmeasurable—do you understand?"

Iroha Isshiki was stunned. "... No."

"That's good, you don't understand." Dong Yunshan sneered. "If you could understand, how would I be able to fool you?"

"Hype" refers to...

"Work, huh?" Dong Yunshan tapped the file lightly. "If you don't speak in the meeting, you have to work afterwards. You can't just do nothing, can you?"

Iroha Isshiki stared at the documents in her hands, her face grim. "As expected, something's wrong with this meeting... Senpai, how do you guys conduct meetings?"

"We..." Dong Yunshan raised one eyebrow.

"Yukino, do you have pictures of the branch stores?" Yui Yuigahama waved her phone. "I feel like pictures would be more effective for promotion."

"Wait a moment." Yukino Yukinoshita clicked on the computer and sent the renovation site to Yui Yuigahama.

"Is this Shibuya we visited before?"

"Well, we also considered Shimokitazawa and Ginza before, but the former is too young, and the latter has too many cafes, so we finally decided on Shibuya." Yukino Yukinoshita explained simply, "And Shibuya Hikarie, built on the site of the former Shibuya Tokyu Cultural Center, is the best choice. It combines fashion shopping, dining, cultural theaters, creative offices, and convention facilities."

Yui Yuigahama some concern, "Although it's a distance from the world's busiest intersection,... the rent here must be expensive, right?"

"As the first core project of the large-scale redevelopment plan in the Shibuya area [Shibuya Radiance Plan], the Shining Center, which opened this year, has launched a flexible leasing policy for emerging brands to quickly fill commercial space and cultivate distinctive business formats," Yukino Yukinoshita explained. "Brands established within the last three years, with an original product system, and not located in Tokyo's core business districts will have their base rent reduced by 40%."

"Such a big discount?!" Yui Yuigahama looked through the pictures. "But the B1 level... seems a bit hard to find."

"The B1 level has direct access to the Ginza and Fukutoshin Ginza lines via underground passages, with an average daily commuter volume of three million. The rent per square meter is about 60% of that of the first floor, but the daily customer flow can reach 80% of that of the first floor." Yukino Yukinoshita pressed her temples as if she had a headache. "However, this means that the original store layout will also need to be modified, and the flow of people will need to be adjusted to improve mobility and avoid queuing and congestion."

She had been busy with this for quite some time.

"I see~" Yui Yuigahama exclaimed in realization, "This place is..."

"It took me a long time to choose this one." Yukino Yukinoshita's expression was complicated. "After choosing it, I showed the other alternatives to Yunshan."

Yui Yuigahama's curiosity was piqued. "And then?"

He chose this one right away.

"Telepathic connection?"

"No," Yukino Yukinoshita sighed, "Because there's a Starbucks across the street."

"... It's the choice he'll make." Yui Yuigahama selected the pictures. "Then I'll use these two."

"These two?" Yukino Yukinoshita, somewhat puzzled. "There are no specific location markers."

"Guess where I am~" Yui Yuigahama playfully stuck out her tongue, "It's something like this."

"To increase interaction..." Yukino Yukinoshita nodded. "Then I'll ask my sister for two photos from Kyoto. You can choose the one that's more misleading."

Yui Yuigahama: "Mmm."

"What do you think of this design?" Komachi Hikigaya handed the sketch to Yukino Yukinoshita. "It gives the impression of fruits and vegetables spraying out like a fountain."

"The effect is good..." Yukino Yukinoshita nodded, "But on a cup, the combination of emerald green and fruit colors doesn't look as good."

"That really is... What about this one? Densely distributed type."

"This one looks good too..." Yukino Yukinoshita picked up the cup to compare, "But it looks distorted on a cup that's wider at the top and narrower at the bottom."

"Then... let's not look at the next one." Komachi Hikigaya picked up her cup. "How about we change the cup?"

"Change the cup?" Yukino Yukinoshita's eyes flickered slightly. "Are you trying to further emphasize the difference?"

Komachi Hikigaya nodded vigorously. "And it looks good in photos!"

Chapter 622 Hurry up, hurry up!

"Speak plainly," Dong Yunshan succinctly summarized, "And handle personnel matters."

"It seems both simple and complicated," Iroha Isshiki muttered softly.

As they were talking, the Student Council vice president, Ben Mumu, stood up and walked over. "President, is this alright?"

"Ah, please wait a moment, let me check." Iroha Isshiki stiffly took the documents and carefully browsed through them.

"Hmm..." Kimaki Makito hesitated for a moment, "About this job..."

Iroha Isshiki looked up. "What's wrong?"

"Never mind, it's nothing..." Kimaki Makito shook his head and looked at Dong Yunshan, "Brother Shan, are you here to help this time too?"

"Yes," Dong Yunshan replied with a smile, "Don't hesitate to ask if you need anything."

"Okay." Kimaki Makito seemed relieved. "Thank you for your hard work."

Watching the other person return to their seat, Iroha Isshiki cast a curious glance at her. "Do you two know each other?"

"Yes, we worked together at the Cultural Festival and sports meet before." Dong Yunshan recalled the elusive ninjas around Meguri Shiromeguri, "Although we didn't have much contact."

"He doesn't seem to like me very much..." Iroha Isshiki with a hint of disappointment, but a slightly provocative smile quickly appeared on her face. "But it's inevitable at the beginning, there's always a way."

"That's good, you have confidence." Dong Yunshan picked up a document. "I'll take care of these."

"Thank you, senior~" Iroha Isshiki's face lit up with a smile, "You're amazing, senior!"

After a while, Iroha Isshiki looked at the clock hanging by the door. "It's almost time to end."

The meeting time was roughly the same as the club activity time.

"Busy, huh?" Wearing a white suit, Shizuka Hiratsuka opened the conference room door, her long, black hair swaying as she walked in, her high heels clicking softly. "Very focused."

"This job fell to you too?" Dong Yunshan raised one eyebrow. "Another young teacher in charge?"

"There's nothing I can do." Shizuka Hiratsuka ruffled her hair in frustration, then her gaze flickered. "Where's Yukino?"

"She has other things to do," Dong Yunshan replied, "At the Tokyo Branch."

"Tokyo is quite far from Chiba, is it really okay for her to be in charge?"

"The staff at the branch store are all on loan from the construction company, so Yukino can easily direct them," Dong Yunshan explained. "Most of the work can be arranged via email, and we'll go over together this weekend to check on the specific details."

A temporary secondment refers to an employee being temporarily assigned to work at another company while maintaining their employment relationship with their original employer, and being subject to the management and direction of the latter during their work period.

Yukinoshita Construction Company is responsible for maintaining the employment relationship, paying basic wages, and contributing to social insurance.

Cloud Snow Tea is responsible for providing job positions, conducting daily management, paying secondment fees, benefits, bonuses, and sales commissions.

Although I work at Cloud Snow Tea, I am still an employee of the construction company.

The labor relationship in a construction company guarantees a minimum income for its employees, while the results of their labor at Cloud Snow Tea determine their maximum income.
