Chapter 17: The Parents' Relief
Even if the current employment situation of Yanhuang Yanguo University graduates is not as good as it is year by year, for many parents, providing their children to study in college is undoubtedly an opportunity for their children to change their fate. Parents often do whatever it takes to get this opportunity.
As employees of Unity Farm, Lu Wenbin's parents also did not go to college. But they all know that their children's future cannot be delayed. Because his academic performance was not very satisfactory, Lu's father saved money for Lu Wenbin to learn music.
In the Yanhuang Empire, the scores for applying for art colleges and universities are also lower than those for admission to other colleges and universities. However, if you want to be admitted to a well-known art school, you must first pass the written examination and interview of the art examination of the institution.
The son was successfully admitted to the Imperial Film Academy, even if the major he was admitted to seemed a little wrong. But Lu Wenbin's parents still gritted their teeth to raise money to send their son to the imperial capital. In the eyes of the parents, they don't want Lu Wenbin to repeat their old path.
As the son of a dual-income farmer, Lu Wenbin can still work on the farm if he is willing. But the farm benefits are not as good as year after year, and the parents don't want Lu Wenbin to follow their old path, but hope to give their son a better future.
I talked to my son on the phone a few times ago, and when I learned that my son had not yet found a job, Lu's father was a little worried. It's just that he never thought that his son would make so much money just after graduation, which really surprised him.
Just when the parents were looking at the copyright contract in a daze and sighed that a song could be sold for 100,000 yuan, Lu Jinghan, who also saw the contract, said with a little excitement on her face: "Brother, you write a song for Xiao Yiyi, then you should have seen her, right?"
'Seen it!What's the matter?' You're still chasing stars?'
"Isn't it okay? I love the love she sings! By the way, brother, when will you hear the song you wrote for her?"
Even if Xiao Yiyi's popularity is not as good as it was back then, there are still many fans who love her in China. It's just that Lu Wenbin knows that for her little sister, she definitely likes more than Xiao Yiyi.
Facing Xiaomei's inquiry, Lu Wenbin said with a smile: "It should take a while! These two songs will be in her latest album." If you want to listen to it, you can hear it when the song hits the charts!"
"Brother, can you help me ask her for an autograph in the future?"
If you really like her, I can take you next time, I have a good relationship with her!"
'Wow, really, that's great!man, you're awesome!'
Compared with his sister's joy and admiration, Lu's father finally spoke: "Xiaobin, isn't the major you studied in the imperial capital writing scripts for people? How did it become writing songs? You said that if you don't look for a job, you just want to write songs?"
Facing his father's inquiry, Lu Wenbin also explained with a smile: "Dad, it is still very difficult for a rookie screenwriter like me to find a job with a professional counterpart as soon as I graduate. It is generally difficult for newcomer screenwriters to get ahead.
I plan to make songs while getting to know more people in the entertainment industry, so that I can have a chance to have connections. What's more, in addition to writing songs, I am also an online writer now. Next month, we should be able to receive a manuscript fee!"
'Web writer?'
'Brother, do you also write novels on the Internet?'
Compared with my parents, I feel a little unfamiliar with a profession like an online writer. As a high school student, Lu Jinghan knows that there are many young people in the Yanhuang Empire now, and they have begun to try to write novels on the Internet.
Although there is not much money to make, Lu Jinghan believes in the strength of his brother. After all, in her eyes, Lu Wenbin is a top student in the Literature Department of the Yellow Emperor Film and Television Academy. Engaging in creation, this is my brother's strength!
Looking at his sister's curious baby-like expression, Lu Wenbin pretended to be serious and said, "Xiaohan, you will be in your third year of high school in the second half of the year, you won't often read novels on the Internet, right?"
Brother, I don't have a mobile phone or a computer, so I go there to read novels! It's just that there are many classmates in the class, and they all like to read novels on the Internet. That's why I'm curious about what kind of novel you write!'
'Ghost blows the lamp, supernatural suspense novel!'
What Lu Wenbin didn't expect was that when he said the words 'ghost blowing out the lamp', Lu Jinghan said with a shocked face: "Brother, you wrote the ghost blowing the lamp?
'What about you? Have you seen it?'
However, I've heard them say that the first story of this novel you wrote is about the Exquisite Ancient City, right? Brother, you are so good, I heard them say that this novel is very popular, and it should make a lot of money, right?"
So, you don't have to worry about Daddy going out. What you have to do in the future is to study hard and try to get into a good university. You don't have to worry about money in the future, you know?'
'Well, got it!'
In fact, after learning that her parents were laid off, Lu Jinghan was really worried about whether she could continue her studies. At least she knows that her family has owed a lot of foreign debts over the years in order to provide for the siblings to go to school!
After listening to some of the situations that Lu Wenbin said, Lu's father's expression finally eased a lot, and he said a little helplessly: "Xiaobin, I am very relieved that you can share it for the family now." It's just that your mother and I can't sit back and eat, right?
What's more, you are not young, and you will have to find a girlfriend to start a family in the future. The most important thing is that if you want to get married in the future, you have to buy a house, right? You save this money yourself, and I will find a way to solve the family affairs. ”
I'd rather suffer by myself than drag down my children, this is the attitude of many parents towards their children!
Facing what his father said, Lu Wenbin, who felt very warm in his heart, shook his head and said: "Dad, I'm only twenty-one years old now, isn't it too early to talk about getting married? As for the house, I will find a way."
Although you didn't tell my mother, I still know that in order to provide for me and my little sister to study, my family owes a lot of money over the years, right? Now that the farm is closed, everyone's life is not easy, so the money owed should be repaid first!
Xiaomei also said earlier that the book I am writing now has good grades. Even though the manuscript fee hasn't been paid yet, I can probably know how much money I'll earn. I dare not say that there is no problem with the book earning more than one million.
Therefore, you and your mother can keep this money with peace of mind, if I really want to buy a house in the imperial capital, then I will naturally find a way. It's just that I think the most important thing now is to solve the problems at home first.
If you and your mother really don't want to rest and want to find something to do, I won't stop you. But one thing, don't do the work that is too hard. And when I come back this time, I'm going to take you to the hospital for a full body check-up.
Dad, Mom, let me finish talking first. You have worked hard all your life to provide for me to study, and now your son wants to do his filial piety, you can't refuse, right? And it's just a check-up, what's there to worry about?"
My father has always been in poor health, although there is no major problem, but there are also many minor problems. But in order to save money, my father has been very resistant to going to the hospital for examinations all these years. When he came back this time, Lu Wenbin felt that he should take his parents for a physical examination.
Just when Lu's father hesitated, Lu's mother said with some agreement: "Dad, don't you listen to your child! Xiaobin, that thing you wrote, is it really so profitable?"
'Mom, am I using this kind of talk to lie to you? Yesterday alone, my manuscript fee income was more than 100,000 yuan. Although there are only a few days left in this month, my manuscript fee for next month will be at least hundreds of thousands.
Wait until September to get the manuscript fee, and it shouldn't be a problem to earn more than one million. And this is only the income from the manuscript fee, and if the novel is published, I believe the income will not be too low. In short, you really don't have to worry about money in the future!'
"Dad, listen to my brother, you can go to the hospital!"
In the face of the persuasion of the family, Lu's father did not refuse in the end. In fact, for his son's filial piety and sensibility at the moment, Lu's father also felt very pleased. After all, wishing for a son to become a Chan is what every parent wants to see.
Thinking about the layoffs in the past few days, the atmosphere at home is very depressing. Now that my son is back, this depression quickly disappears. Suddenly, Father Lu felt that all these years of hard work seemed to be worth it.
'Okay, then listen to you kid once! I'll take the money. The farm was suddenly closed, and everyone was having a hard time. If you kid is really promising, you must remember to take care of your uncles and aunts in the field in the future, you know?'
'Yes!'
As the descendants of immigrants, most of the residents who live in Solidarity Farm are united. In addition, they are all descendants of military immigrants, and if there is any difficulty in private, everyone will watch and help each other. After all, distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors!
Knowing that his father is that kind of warm-hearted, Lu Wenbin naturally won't brush him. Just wants to change the current predicament faced by the farm, Lu Wenbin also feels that he really doesn't have that ability now!
