Chapter 898: Find School 2
His voice paused, and then he continued, "As for your studies, Director Lu has already arranged everything for you. If the audition is successful, we will schedule your parts to be shot on Saturdays and Sundays. It will be a bit tough, but it won’t interfere with your studies."
The principal and Director Lu were old acquaintances who understood each other well, which is why the principal had summoned them to his office on behalf of Director Lu.
Although they weren’t from the acting industry, it was still an opportunity for them.
Acting paid, and both of them came from Licheng; their families were probably not that well-off, so this was a good chance to earn some tuition money without compromising their studies.
Shen Mianmian and Yang Xiaoxi hadn’t expected Lu Nian to come over again, let alone arrange their schedules for them.
With the principal involved, if they didn’t at least try the audition out of courtesy, it would seem a bit ungrateful, but this wasn’t a decision she could make on her own. Although Xiaoxi was very obedient, Mianmian still looked at her, wanting to ask for her opinion.
Seeing Mianmian look over, Xiaoxi quickly said, "Mianmian, I’ll follow your lead. If you go, I’ll go; if you don’t, I won’t either."
Hearing this, Lu Nian’s eyes brightened. This was tantamount to agreeing halfway. Eager for Shen Mianmian to agree, he quickly added, "I have already chosen the shooting location, just outside Beijing. If you pass the audition, I will arrange for a car to pick you up and take you to the set. The fee for each of you will be ten thousand yuan."
This offer wasn’t something everyone could enjoy nowadays. Both were newcomers with no acting experience; five thousand yuan was considered a very high fee.
They would have to work for at least ten or eight years to earn that much money under normal circumstances.
