'Just stand on the street and shout out your name. Someone will come.'
'Now's the time to use your fame. Tons of fans know you're installing screen protectors now.'
'Don't worry. We're coming to save you.'
'You're gonna make bank easily.'
Vania noticed their ideas, and she thanked them. "Thank you for the support, but don't waste your money on this. One dollar and forty cents aren't much, but we'll only sell our services to those who need them. But still, thank you for your support."
'Nice attitude.'
'Sure. We won't waste our money, Vania.'
Everyone praised her.
And then, Vania got an idea. "Why don't we go with a buy-one-get-one-free promotion?" That's a fifty percent discount. I'd call that a bargain.
The viewers thought it was a good strategy, and Vania quickly hollered. It was her first time doing this, but soon, someone recognized her, and word spread. Eventually, they found themselves overwhelmed by customers. About half an hour later, they completed their mission and gifted the remaining screen protectors to the fans who supported them. "Thank you. We'll meet again." She said goodbye happily and ended her work for the day.
Huh, I did nothing but take photos of her and her fans, Hanson thought.
The director was beaming at them when they came back. Obviously, he had another trick in mind.
Vania was still immersed in the happiness of work. She didn't realize the director's cheeky smile, and she placed her earnings in front of him. "We can start the trip now, right?"
The director chuckled. "You guys left before I could explain the rules."
"Huh?" I don't like the looks of this. Her smile froze. "What do you mean? Is this another trap?" It just won't stop coming. Just when I thought I was free of this.
"You made a hundred and forty dollars." The director first stated their earnings. He was saving the best part for last. "We provided three hundred screen protectors. If we go by the original price, you should have sold only a hundred of them. Even if we take damaged products into account, you should have left with a hundred and fifty of the screen protectors."
Vania was surprised. So, we're talking profit now?
The director continued, "But you've sold all of them, so we'll have to deduct the costs."
"I thought those were free!" Vania was stunned. I did not see this coming.
The director smiled. "Nope. We spent a lot of money on this."
She froze up like a popsicle. She was beyond speechless at this point.
The viewers were laughing out loud, waiting for the director to continue with his scheme.
"You should have seventy dollars left after all costs are accounted for."
"That should be enough, right?" We need about twenty-eight dollars each for the trip. Now there's a surplus. I can tip the team with that. No big deal if they take it.
"Nope." The director doused her hopes. "We're simulating a true worker lifestyle. Using your fame is prohibited."
