Chapter 799 - 87: You Disappoint Me

Hazel was speechless, she did not expect that even when she was sitting quietly, Vanessa would refuse to let go of her.

"Joshua likes Hazel so much, I think she must be smart and clever. And therefore, this problem should be easy." Vanessa said with a strange tone.

Joshua's eyebrows raised unpleasantly, but before he had opened his mouth, he heard Hazel say

without much care, "I really have a way to solve this problem."

Vanessa was shocked. She had planned to embarrass Hazel. However, Hazel actually had a solution? What good idea could Hazel have?

She was afraid that no matter what Hazel said, Joshua would praise her. Professor Watson definitely wouldn't pay much attention to this matter.

Vanessa could not wait any longer. She rushed to say, "Hazel, don't tell me that your way was to reduce the price of the printed version or to increase the price of the electronic version? That will not work, changing the price will only upset customers who have already purchased a copy!"

"Don't worry! I won't say ideas that I haven't thought through first." Hazel said elegantly.

Vanessa was shocked and was staring at Hazel angrily, but she had no other choice other than to sit and listen to some secretary's idea. Will Hazel really have a better suggestion?

"What is the solution?" Joshua asked with a smile and calmly got everyone back on topic.

Hazel said, "It's actually effortless. The prices of the electronic and printed versions remain the same, and they are still sold separately, but issue a combination of electronic and print versions..."

"Oh, I really thought that you had some good idea!" Vanessa sneered. "Customers just need to buy an electronic version. Why would they spend more money to buy a combination package?"

"Can you not interrupt me?" Hazel looked at her indifferently. "Or you say what you have to first, and when you finish, then I will speak?"

Vanessa's face was long, but this time she was acting very childish. She was too eager to embarrass Hazel. She snorted and stopped talking.

"Hazel, you go on." Professor Watson laughed out happily. He was also noticing the oddness of the conversation.

"Professor Watson, there is not much cost in the electronic version, right?" Hazel asked.

"Correct." Professor Watson nodded. "The electronic version is only a scan of the printed version. There was really no cost. No matter how much it is sold, you can make a profit."

"Since our goal is to sell the printed version, then the package will be priced at 88 dollars," Hazel said calmly.

Vanessa sneered, this was Hazel's genius idea? She didn't wait for Hazel to finish the rest of her thought.

Vanessa couldn't help but say, "Hazel, how can you say this? The printing version is 88. The combination package will be 88, too. You are going to let those who bought the electronic version think that the electronic version is worthless and they bought trash?"

"Yes," Hazel said.

"You..." Hazel still wanted to say something. Suddenly, she looked at Joshua and Professor Watson skeptically. Both of them looked at Hazel with a strange yet pleasing look. They seemed to have discovered an undeveloped gem.

How could this be? Vanessa was outraged. She rethought what she had just said, and her face suddenly became pale. How could she be that stupid ...

Professor Watson had turned to look at Vanessa, his expression said it all, it was one that you give someone who does not understand. Vanessa wanted to explain, but she had no way to explain it.

"Vanessa, Hazel's method is excellent." Professor Watson explained with some disappointment. "Students choose the electronic version, they just think that the electronic version is more cost-effective. This way, they will think that the electronic version is a waste, of course, they will choose the most cost-effective combination."

Vanessa's cheeks were red; how can she not think these things? It was just because she was too busy trying to point out that Hazel was wrong.

"Hazel, you are a genius." Joshua praised in a low voice. His voice was full of pride and sincere praise.

"You exaggerate too much." Being praised like this, Hazel was somewhat embarrassed, and her cheek could not help but blush.

"No, no, no, this is not an exaggeration," Professor Watson said with a smile. "Hazel, you had solved a big problem for me. I could not think of how to sell the printed version of the school magazine. I did not expect you to solve it so easily..."

"Nothing..." Hazel was even more embarrassed. "I just thought of it. It didn't take much effort."

"So, I said that you are a genius." Joshua smiled.

Vanessa's angry eyes were red, and she didn't want to see Hazel's arrogance at all! How could this have been thought of by Hazel? Obviously, she was just a little girl who couldn't do anything! How can Hazel be smarter than her? Impossible!

What made her most unbearable was the look of Joshua's appreciation and his love for Hazel!

"Joshua really loves Hazel," Vanessa said with an evil smile. "You two were whispering, I am presuming this idea was thought of by Joshua?"

"Vanessa, how could you do this? You disappoint me!" Professor Watson frowned at her. He always liked Vanessa, but today she was acting too oddly.

"I..." Vanessa was a little worried.

"Mr. Denmark was just explaining our school magazine to Hazel and did not help her out," Professor Watson could not help but reprimand. "Hazel is indeed smart, you did not think of anything. Did Joshua and I think of it? You had always been generous. How can you be so mean today?"

Vanessa's face was a dark red, and she was cursing Professor Watson over and over in her head.

If it weren't for Joshua, who had an extraordinary amount of respect to him, she would not have continued to please this old man. He actually dared to reprimand her in front of Joshua and did not show her any respect!

But Joshua was here, Vanessa can only smile and be polite, she reluctantly said, "Professor, I am wrong, please don't be angry..."

Hazel looked at Vanessa's performance without paying much attention, and although Vanessa tried to cover up her emotions, Hazel still found her constantly changing look. Vanessa's mood was just like a roller coaster.

"Hazel, thank you very much for your time." Professor Watson said with gratitude, "You must come to my celebration party."

Hazel smiled happily because before when Professor Watson invited her, it was because of Joshua, but now, his invitation was because of her.
