After Rebirth, My Fiancé Helps Me Avenge the Wicked Scum

Chapter 602 Persuasion
Gu Minxing originally sneaked out from home, how dare she tell her brother?
However, listening to Mengyu’s words, she started to feel that if she became an actress, it would bring honor to her brother. It seemed like she should inform him.
Moreover, what did Jiang Mengyu say about her being able to get into Beiyan?
“My grades are not very good,” Gu Minxing said.
Mengyu’s Divine Sense noticed that when she mentioned applying to Beiyan, the man showed a look of anxiety in his eyes.
This person indeed has issues.
She quickly comforted Gu Minxing: “Don’t worry, you still have one more year before the college entrance exam. Being admitted to Beiyan depends on acting talent, not so much on academic scores. So, you don’t need top-notch results. Just push a little harder and you can definitely get in.
Once you’re a student at Beiyan, becoming an actress will be much easier. Many students start accepting film roles even before they graduate.”
Gu Minxing listened to Mengyu’s enticing words and indeed began to hesitate—she had initially planned to just follow Director Zhong.
Director Zhong finally couldn’t hold back: “Why bother auditioning for Beiyan? After studying there, isn’t it for acting in films as well? But now, you immediately have an opportunity to become an actress.”
Mengyu, seeing her intrigued, quickly answered: “That’s different. At Beiyan, you systematically study acting. When you graduate, your trained background gives you a higher starting point.
But if you become an actress now, it’s an unprofessional path. There’s no job security, you act when asked, and when not, you are nothing.
Furthermore, untrained actors who haven’t studied systematically only learn through practice and are easily eliminated if they lack capability.
However, if you graduate from university, you start with a stable job. As long as you are willing to work and advance your studies, you will surely succeed and become a big star.”
Director Zhong disdainfully said: “Do you think getting movie roles is easy? So many formally trained film academy graduates still fail to get films and become actresses?”
Mengyu chuckled: “That’s for others. Not for my Ah Min! Ah Min, if it turns out you indeed cannot get a film role, just let your brother invest in a movie and ask them to let you be the lead actress!”
“Investing in a movie? Hahaha!” Director Zhong laughed loudly: “Do you know how much it costs to invest in a movie? You dare say you want to invest in a movie? Do you know how much it costs to produce a movie?”
At that time, the cost of making a movie was not as high as it would be in later years, where actors solely relied on wages.
Therefore, Mengyu smiled: “Not enough to invest in a movie, can we just donate tens of thousands of yuan? A donation of tens of thousands of yuan just to secure a lead role, you think that won’t work?”
“You—”
Director Zhong looked at Mengyu in shock.
A donation of tens of thousands of yuan just for a leading role, could the director actually refuse her?
What surprised him was that at that time, acquiring a woman in the mountains cost just several hundred yuan.
But this woman mentioned tens of thousands of yuan right off the bat.
Keep in mind, at that time, millionaires were extremely rare. Was it worth it just for this girl?
Mengyu took out a bankbook worth one hundred thousand yuan that she had shown to Vice County Magistrate Wen before and showed it to Gu Minxing: “This is the money I earned myself. As long as I want, I can make money. But Ah Min, do you really want to be an actress?
Being an actress is tough, and most importantly, you’re always at the center of news and controversies. Have you ever thought about becoming a teacher, a doctor, a scientist, a writer?”
Mengyu knew that she couldn’t be sure this man was a bad person, thus she couldn’t forcefully stop her from going with him. Therefore, she had to persuade Minxing, making her willingly choose to go with her!
