Chapter 718: Education

Translator: Henyee Translations  Editor: Henyee Translations

The results of the previous exam were already out. Lu Zhen had scored more than 500 points. With this result, she could go to an ordinary university. If she was lucky, she could go to an unpopular university.

But this was naturally not Lu Zhen’s goal. She did not take the exam to get a university cert. The goal she set for herself naturally could not be too low. She already had a few schools that she liked. She calculated in her heart that she had to score at least 600 points to have a chance to enter these universities.

Even for ordinary students who study and revise in school every day, it’s not easy to find time to improve their grades by more than 100 points during an intense work schedule. Not to mention that Lu Zhen’s work schedule barely stopped.

Even though her work schedule this year was not that tight, she had to do one thing after another. She had never really been free.

Ye Xuan also knew that Lu Zhen had to prepare for her exams while working, so she did not take on too many business activities for her.

On the one hand, with Lu Zhen’s current popularity and status in the entertainment industry, she did not need a lot of variety shows and commercial endorsements to increase her exposure and value.

On the other hand, for a celebrity, having a high academic qualification was a very good label.

Celebrities in the entertainment industry generally did not have high academic qualifications. Two years ago, in a very popular movie, “My Genius Girlfriend”, the female lead was played by a top student from a double-rated university in the country. This made the netizens have a particularly good impression of her, and her fans were very proud of her.

When this actress who had just become famous participated in the variety show, the celebrities and seniors who had a much higher status than her were very polite to her. Even the emcee would throw the opportunity to speak to her from time to time and take care of her.

If she was just an ordinary celebrity, she would never have such treatment.

Celebrities with high academic qualifications were rare existences in the entertainment industry. No matter where they went, they would receive more respect.

With Lu Zhen’s ability and acting skills, even if she did not have the halo of an academic qualification, it would not affect her continued popularity. However, who did not want to have another beautiful dress on her?

Moreover, Ye Xuan had a vague thought in her heart.

In the future, the competition between Lu Zhen and Guan Yun would only become more and more obvious. After Lu Zhen officially stepped into the international film industry, the competition would become more and more intense.

Both of them were Chinese female celebrities. There were very few roles given to Chinese actors overseas. One day, the two of them would have frequent conflicts over roles.

At that time, the public opinion in the country would also be affected. Now, the two of them have already been compared by the netizens. The online war would only become fiercer day by day. If Lu Zhen wanted to gain the advantage of public opinion under such circumstances, she had to increase her bargaining chips.

Guan Yun debuted earlier than Lu Zhen and had a huge fan base. This was a disadvantage that Lu Zhen could not turn around at all.

Moreover, Guan Yun was a grand slam movie queen. If Lu Zhen really reached this level, even if there were good opportunities, it would take at least three years to catch up to Guan Yun’s achievements.

Under such circumstances, if Lu Zhen could become a top student at a key university in the country, it would greatly increase her chances of winning.

This would become Lu Zhen’s unique advantage.

Thinking of this, Ye Xuan became even more supportive of Lu Zhen’s studies. She even used her connections to hire a retired professor from Newport University as her tutor. However, the other party had yet to confirm if she wanted to accept this commission.

Ye Xuan asked Lu Zhen to personally visit that teacher and settle this matter as soon as possible when the production team of “Rain and Fog” went to Newport to film.

Lu Zhen did not know what the teacher’s preference was. She could only prepare some health food and famous tea from Jiang Fei according to his age, hoping to satisfy him.

In less than half an hour, Ye Xuan’s video call suddenly came.

Lu Zhen picked up the call. Ye Xuan didn’t beat around the bush and said directly, “The company is in some trouble.”

Lu Zhen put down the pen in her hand. This was not the first time she had encountered such a thing. Ye Xuan’s subtext was “I need your help.” Of course, it was not that Lu Zhen did not have a chance to refuse, but… if she could refuse casually, Ye Xuan would not have looked for her.

“Go ahead,” Lu Zhen said calmly.

Ye Xuan sighed and rubbed the space between her eyebrows. A female celebrity from Jia Le was preparing to participate in a movie produced by a famous director in R Nation. This was very beneficial to both sides.
