The job offered is just redrawing the sketch, making a presentation, and rendering one 3D interior of this project. His professor said one of the 3D artists is sick, so if Bai Yutang could make the 3D also, he'd be paid double.
Bai Yutang calculates the time needed, and it will take about 1 week the most. His professor said he'll get paid 1500 yuan for the whole job, 750 yuan if only to redraw and make a presentation. It was a big payment for a university student. It's also a fair amount of payment.
Their professor sometimes asks for the third or fourth year student to do these kinds of part time jobs. Bai Yutang received this job, since it also will train him about the real working environment he will have when he graduates. And he also got paid.
