Global Film Emperor

Chapter 12 University Student Course Simulation (Part 1)

Lu Ze lived up to Liu Le's expectations and got the role. Liu Le also received a 400 yuan agency fee, which was paid by the production team and was not deducted from Lu Ze's money.

As he left the film studio, Lu Ze clutched two pieces of paper tightly in his hand. This was his script, and he checked it; there were over a hundred words of dialogue in total!

"You're really something, kid. You acted so well, you scared me half to death. You've got some skills."

"Of course! Would I dare take on a job I'm not qualified for? Your brother here has some training too, you know."

Lu Ze didn't stand on ceremony. He put on an arrogant air and walked with an air of nonchalance, practically floating on air.

"What are you pretending for? You just need a beating! Did the director tell you when filming starts?"

"I said we'll start filming tomorrow. It's a battlefield scene. The pyrotechnician still needs to prepare. That's good. I need to prepare too."

"Are you still working today? There's another tough job this afternoon, are you going to do it?"

"Let's do it! I'm short on cash right now, I'll do anything. Let's go!"

He got covered in dust and went home looking disheveled. He glanced at the apartment across the hall; Yang Dan hadn't returned yet. Lu Ze washed himself with a basin of water, stir-fried some spring vegetables, drank a bottle of beer, and went to bed around 8 p.m. to start his classes.

Lu Ze has been getting whipped a lot lately in his basic acting classes, and he's gotten tired of it. So he's planning to take a mock class to relax. Yes, compared to the basic acting classes, the mock classes involve very little whipping and are basically just for fun.

However, thanks to the many beatings he endured during the basic courses, Lu Ze's basic skills were also very solid. He could cry on cue and laugh on cue, just like someone who had learned Sichuan face-changing.

Lu Ze flipped through the course schedule, his gaze scattered, barely looking at anything. When he saw a course, he immediately stopped flipping and went back to scroll up.

"Simulation of College Student Life in the 21st Century"

Looking at the course, Lu Ze's gaze became somewhat unfocused. Perhaps his dream of going to university could come true in his dreams?

"Loading complete, ready to enter the course, '21st Century College Student Life Simulation' Course 321 begins."

"Entering the first stage of simulation. The first stage will last for one semester. Please prepare, host. 321."

Lu Ze opened his eyes. The sunlight was a bit dazzling. He was on a bus, and his head was a little dizzy from just waking up. A girl in front of him was introducing the history of a school.

"Oh right, I'm Lu Ze, I'm eighteen years old, from Lühua, and I'm a 2012 graduate of the Architecture Department of Beijing Normal University, majoring in Architectural Decoration Engineering Technology. Today is my university registration day."

Lu Ze took out his college admission notice from his bag, glanced at it, and carefully put it back. He pressed his head against the car window, looking at the buildings outside. Although it was daytime, the capital was countless times more magnificent than Lu Hua's rural village. This was the scenery he had always dreamed of seeing after leaving the mountains.

Forty minutes later, the bus stopped at the east gate of the school. Lu Ze did not rush to get off the bus. He kept looking inside through the window. Today was the first day of registration. The senior students had also returned to school at this time. The school was particularly lively. This was a scene that Lu Ze had never seen before.

There were also parents of students on the bus, all hurriedly helping their children with their luggage. Lu Ze was the last to get off the bus, carrying two large denim bags on his shoulders.

It's only early autumn, and the capital city isn't cool. Carrying two bags of luggage, Lu Ze waited at the registration office for almost an hour, paid for bedding, and received a set of sheets. Then, he followed his senior to his dormitory building.

314, this is where he will live for four years. It's a four-person dormitory. The other roommates have their parents helping them make their bedding, while their three roommates lend a hand and chat most of the time.

After getting to know his roommates, their parents asked why Lu Ze's parents hadn't come over. They even kindly helped Lu Ze make his bed, saying that the four of them should get along well in the future.

Then one parent treated the four children to a meal. They were financially well-off and went to a nice restaurant.

This was the first time Lu Ze had ever seen such exquisite dishes. He was so careful that he didn't even dare to touch the chopsticks, afraid of ruining the beautiful presentation.

After dinner, the parents left, and the four children returned to their dormitory. It was almost dark by then. One of the roommates took out a basketball and invited everyone to play. In this dormitory, only Lu Ze had never played basketball before.

Exhausted and covered in sweat, we went back and poured ourselves a basin of water, then went to the cafeteria for a meal, which made it past nine o'clock in the evening.

Back in the dorm, following university tradition, everyone was assigned the titles of "elder brother" and "second eldest brother." Of course, from the next morning onwards, they never used those titles again. Only when cleaning the dorm would they call each other "elder brother" affectionately, as if they were half-brothers.

Lu Ze is the eldest, which also means he's the unfortunate dormitory head.

At first, everyone got along very well, but later, as the gap between the rich and poor and their character gradually became apparent, the dormitory became less harmonious. Every night, they didn't talk much anymore, each did their own thing, and then went to sleep.

Lu Ze is a kind and honest person, not very cunning, and is considered neutral. None of his three roommates dislike him. However, Lu Ze has a narrow perspective, and due to their different hobbies and allowances, they don't have much in common.

Lu Ze gets up at five o'clock every morning to work in the school cafeteria. His part-time job pays him eight hundred yuan a month, which is enough to cover his expenses.

Moreover, he never skipped classes, and after class and work, he would immerse himself entirely in the school's huge library.

Only the children in the mountains know how much they crave knowledge.

Because poverty was their fate, they knew from a young age that if they wanted to change their fate, they had to study.

until that day
Time flies, and before we knew it, it was the end of the semester. Students began to study hard, and the library was crowded.

The stool was gently pulled out; it was one of the few empty seats in the library, right next to Lu Ze.

Even a small sound can travel far in the quiet library, let alone right next to Lu Ze.

It was normal for someone to be sitting next to him, but Lu Ze was focused on memorizing the key points about fire doors and fire exits, without even looking up.

Suddenly, the fragrance around him intensified and gently entered Lu Ze's nose. He had a bit of a cold these past few days, and his nose was a little uncomfortable, so he couldn't help but sneeze.

"Ah!"

Looking back at the source of the fragrance, Lu Ze realized that this must be love at first sight. He wasn't petrified or stunned; he simply thought she was incredibly beautiful at that moment.

He rarely interacted with girls, even those in his class.

Although the girls thought Lu Ze was probably the most handsome in the class, he dressed unfashionably and worked in the cafeteria, so they only interacted with him when they borrowed study materials from him.

At that moment, Lu Ze felt that even the winter sun had become warmer.

The girl seemed to realize that Lu Ze had sneezed because he smelled her fragrance. Her face turned a little red. She wanted to change seats, but after glancing around and seeing the seats packed full, she had to give up the idea.

She was accompanied by a companion. The two girls whispered to each other, and the companion glanced at Lu Ze with a smile.

Lu Ze could no longer concentrate on his book. Because of the silence, although he couldn't hear what the two girls were saying, their laughter still reached his ears, and his ears turned red and hot, making him a little flustered.

Fifteen minutes later, he fled, his heart pounding like a caught mouse, slinking away in disgrace.

He didn't even dare to look at the girl a second time.

During the final exam, as one of the top students in his class, he finished the test paper as quickly as possible, even feeling that the questions were too easy and that he didn't need to check them at all.

Yes, aside from being poor, he is truly outstanding.

"The first phase of the simulation has been completed, with a score of 97, which is excellent. The course has ended."
