Chapter 552 - 552 Giving Pocket Money in Advance
Of course, Song Yujin had no plans to drop out and become an actor. He just wanted to earn some income. This way, he could give Song Ci pocket money in advance!
“How long will the filming take? School is starting in September.”
Whenever Song Ci started filming, she would be gone for a long time. Song Yujin was worried that he would miss out on school.
“I assume you’ll finish filming around the same time as your mother, so about half a month.”
Yang Haoran quickly added, “This movie will finish filming by the end of August. It won’t clash with your schooling schedule.”
Song Yujin nodded.
“Then I’m willing to act. Just make sure I get my salary.”
After saying that, Song Yujin realized something.
“When will I be paid? Do I have to wait until filming wraps up?”
Lu Gan could not help but laugh.
“I didn’t know that you’re such a money-grubber. What do you need the money for?”
Song Yujin stayed silent.
Lu Gan squatted down and coaxed him, “Tell me. Maybe I can help you.”
Song Yujin shook his head.
“No need. I just want to earn my own money.”
“Alright.”
Lu Gan did not want to force Song Yujin.
“I’ll tell your sister later. If she agrees, you can go and act.”
“So when will I get paid?”
Song Yujin was still thinking about this matter.
Lu Gan did not know whether to laugh or cry.
‘We never skimp on Song Yujin’s pocket money, so why is he behaving like this? Is it because he really likes the idea of earning money? How cute.’
Lu Gan patted Song Yujin’s head.
Yang Haoran patiently explained, “Yujin, you don’t have a bank account. Hence, your salary will probably be transferred to your sister’s account instead.”
“Oh.”
Song Yujin had no objections. After all, he planned to give his salary to Song Ci.
Yang Haoran thought to himself, ‘This child is really different. No wonder Song Ci praises him every day. I bet she’ll be surprised by the turn of events.’
Song Ci was indeed surprised. She asked curiously, “Yujin, you’re really willing to act?”
Song Yujin replied calmly, “They’ll pay me.”
Song Ci laughed.
“You’re doing this for money? Acting can be a little troublesome sometimes.”
“I don’t mind.”
Song Yujin was serious.
Song Ci became a little worried. She did not want Song Yujin to be scolded.
‘People only ever praise him. What if his self-esteem got hurt?’
With that thought in mind, Song Ci tried to dissuade Song Yujin.
“Filming is very tough. You have to sleep late but wake up early. Moreover, you have to repeat the same action continuously and practice with others. You’ll also have to memorize a lot of things.”
“I can do it.”
Song Yujin remained calm. However, he did not understand one thing.
“Why do I have to repeat the same action continuously?”
“If you don’t act well or say the wrong lines, Director Chen will make you repeat the scene. It’s similar to doing corrections for your homework.”
Song Yujin nodded.
“So if I act well, that won’t happen.”
“It’s not that simple…”
Song Ci sounded concerned.
“You need both talent and hard work. Otherwise, it won’t be enough.”
Song Yujin was confused. Song Ci compared acting to his studies and he had always done well in the latter aspect. Therefore, there should not be any problem if he performed similarly.
