Chapter 86 Invitation
Mrs. James said, "Miss, have you lived in London? I really have a standard listening to your accent!"
She didn't pay attention to the meaning of Mr. Zhao's original words, but was surprised by Li Xingxing's pronunciation.
The accent of middle- and upper-class people in the UK represents identity.
Li Xingxing shook his head and said, "My grandfather went to Great Britain when he was young. He was a student at Cambridge University. Is the English I learned from him better than the translator Liu?"
When Li Xingxing mentioned this, he felt bitter and tears in his stomach.
The old man is very strict with her in terms of study.
When he goes to kindergarten, the more expensive it is bilingual teaching, but what about him? It is seven language teaching for her!
The old man lived and learned until he was old, proficient in Mandarin, English, French, German, Russian, Italian and Japanese, and asked her to keep up. Li Xingxing had hired a foreign teacher since she was five years old, which took a huge amount of manpower and material resources.
Li Xingxing was so tired that he cried every day when he was a child, so his dream was to be a salted fish.
Mrs. James gave her a thumbs up: "It turns out that you are from a famous family. Your English is a hundred times better than Liu's translator!"
She said to Mr. Zhao: "Zhao, you should ask this lady to be the translator, so there will be no misunderstanding between us."
After hearing Li Xingxing's translation, Mr. Zhao couldn't help but show an admirational expression. He had already asked the entourage to pull Liu Translator down, "This little comrade, what do you mean? I don't have a translator now, and the new translator can't get there in a short time. I can't communicate with foreign friends. Can you help? I won't treat you badly."
"Comrade Zhao, are you a businessman? Today I'm just a chance meeting. If you ask me to interpret for you, aren't you afraid that I will make trouble in secret?" Are the big capitalists in Shanghai so unsuspecting? Incredible.
Mr. Zhao smiled and said, "Don't doubt people, don't doubt people."
Li Xingxing said in disagreement: "Then you have to be careful, be careful of villains, just like today."
Mr. Zhao thought she was available.
The girl of seventeen or eighteen years old is childish and has not experienced enough, so she is easier to get along with than an old man.
"My surname is Zhao, Zhao Haiyun, a national capitalist. He lives in Shanghai. He is originally from Wutong City. He goes north with his friends from abroad to climb the Great Wall, see the Forbidden City, and visit the Summer Palace. He passes by Wutong City on the way. He heard that Comrade Xia Mingxing works here, so we will stay for three to five days." After briefly introducing himself, Zhao Haiyun asked directly: "Miss, how are you thinking?"
"Not very good." Li Xingxing replied calmly.
She has seen famous attractions such as the Great Wall, the Forbidden City, the Summer Palace and other places sixty years later!
He proudly raised his chest and had no desire for Zhao Haiyun's words.
Zhao Haiyun believed that she said that her grandfather had gone abroad and did not have certain knowledge and would not have such generous words and behaviors. Moreover, she had fluent English, which was more authentic than the English teacher she hired for her children.
It can be said to be one of the few talents.
She should not stay in Wutong City, but should go to the wider sky to show off her talents, such as Shanghai.
"My little comrade, which unit do you work in? I will invite your leader to specially hire you as the translator for our trip and give you a certain equipment fee and salary."
"Don't care about food and accommodation?" Li Xingxing valued this more.
"Sure, of course!" Zhao Haiyun said with great wealth, "I will bear all the international hotels with us, stay at high-priced restaurants, travel expenses, shopping expenses, etc."
