如果他帮我们把录音工作顺利完成的话，钱我们会给她，毕竟以前合作的很愉快。上次是因为公司的变动才遭成的，其实我也不愿意发生那样的事。但是如果因为她的原因给我们遭成损失，我也没法跟领导交代，具体能不能给她钱我也做不了主。

              English Translation: 

                    If he can help us complete the recording very smoothly, we’ll give her the money. After all we cooperated well before. The result is due to the change of the company last time. Actually I don’t hope so. But if the company has any loss because of her, I can’t hand over the work to the leader. I can’t decide weather she can get the money or not.
