Rebirth of the Industrial Tycoon

  Chapter 52 Teacher Xiao Li

  Li Weidong is only seventeen years old, and indeed looks like a student.

  For this reason, when Zhou Fulai first entered the door, he regarded Luo Bing as a Japanese translation.

  When he learned that the real translator was Li Weidong, Zhou Fulai's face changed slightly, and he first complained, "Isn't this a nonsense?" Then he called Director Wang.

   Zhou Fulai's face was gloomy, and he barely maintained the majesty of being a leader, and said, "Director Wang, what do you do? You said that you found a Japanese translation. How come you are a student? Looking at your age, you just went to college, right?"

   Zhou Fulai regarded Li Weidong as a college student. If he knew that Li Weidong was not even a college student, but was just a junior high school graduate, he might be fainted.

  Director Wang hurriedly explained: “Zhou Ju, don’t look at the young comrade, he is really a Japanese translator, and I can’t speak Japanese. I tried it myself.”

  "How did you try?" Zhou Fulai asked.

   "We took a Japanese document, and he can translate it immediately." Director Wang replied.

Zhou Fulai’s expression is a little better, but his tone is still very stern: "Director Wang, what we are looking for is not an ordinary Japanese translation, but a Japanese translation proficient in automotive terms. If it is only for translating daily documents, Do I need to spend this time?"

   "Zhou Ju, this little comrade said that he is proficient in automobile terms, so I dare to call you back." Director Wang replied.

Zhou Fulai quietly looked at Li Weidong again, and then said: "He said he is proficient in automotive technical terms, you believe it? Those automotive terms are not commonly used at all. Even our Japanese lecturer at Tianjin University can’t handle it. He is a young student, what can he understand?"

  At this time, Li Weidong finally said: "Zhou Ju, do I understand the technical terminology of automobiles? If you find someone to try it, don’t you know!"

  Director Wang also intervened from the side: “Yes, Zhou Ju, didn’t Mr. Xu from Jinmen University come back with you? We can ask him to try this little comrade.”

   Zhou Fulai thought for a moment, nodded, and then said: "Go and invite Teacher Xu."

After a while, a middle-aged man with black-rimmed glasses was brought in. This man had an easy-going appearance and was born with an honest aura. At first glance, he looked like an indisputable educator.

  "Teacher Xu, I’m going to trouble you again. We have a little comrade here. Please test his Japanese proficiency and see if you can act as an interpreter for foreign guests." Zhou Fulai said.

  Teacher Xu nodded, came to Li Weidong, and said: "This classmate, don't be nervous, let's talk casually."

  "Classmate? Treat me as his student." Li Weidong groaned in his heart.

  Ms. Xu is a Japanese lecturer at Jinmen University. His students are older than Li Weidong because of his age.

  So Li Weidong said directly in Japanese: "Mr. Xu, hello, my name is Li Weidong."

  Seeing Li Weidong speak Japanese, Teacher Xu also started to use Japanese and started talking with Li Weidong.

Although Mr. Xu is a Japanese lecturer at Jinmen University, he has never been to RB. Before the 1980s, the exchanges between China and Japan were not close. A university lecturer would definitely not have the conditions to go abroad and even connect with RB people. All are minimal. So Teacher Xu's spoken language is not authentic at all.

  While Li Weidong has been in RB for several years, he is definitely not as good as Mr. Xu in terms of grammar, but his oral communication is definitely a lot higher than Mr. Xu.

  The two had a long or short conversation, and Teacher Xu felt that Li Weidong’s spoken language was much better than himself.

   "Teacher Xu, how is the Japanese level of this little comrade?" Zhou Fulai couldn't help but ask.

Teacher Xu held up his glasses and said, "This classmate's Japanese is very good. His pronunciation and speaking habits are closer to those of RB people. In terms of spoken English, this classmate is much better than me. "

  Ms. Xu is an honest person, honest people will not lie, honest people are easy to take orders, honest people are very frank in admitting that his oral English is not as good as Li Weidong.

   "Oh?" Zhou Fulai suddenly looked surprised, he asked: "Then can he be an interpreter for foreign guests?"

   "Well, I have to test it again. After all, the foreign guest needs a translator who is proficient in automotive terms. I don't know how much the student knows about this." Teacher Xu replied.

   "Then test it out!" Zhou Fulai said hurriedly.

   Teacher Xu nodded, and then took out a thick Chinese-Japanese Dictionary from his pocket.

   "What is the situation, why don't you pick out the dictionary if you don't agree!" Li Weidong's face was stunned.

  I saw Teacher Xu opened the dictionary and asked: "What does the word ストッパ mean?"

  "The stopper is a device to protect the safety of the engine." Li Weidong replied.

  At this time, Li Weidong also came to understand that Mr. Xu was testing his own vocabulary of the automotive industry.

  "What does パワーステアリング mean?" Teacher Xu asked again.

  "Power steering, RB people are also used to using this word to describe hydraulic steering." Li Weidong replied.

  "What is フィルター?" Teacher Xu asked again.

   "If it simply reflects the word, it means filters. If it is in the automotive industry, it means filters." Li Weidong replied again.

  Many automobile technical terms are not used in daily life. Teachers like Teacher Xu mainly swim around within the scope of teaching materials, and it is impossible to delve into automobile terminology.

  It’s like buying a car in a 4S shop, and selling the various parameters and preparations that most people don’t understand.

  Not to mention the rapid development of the automobile industry. There may be one or two new things in every new car. If you are not a professional automobile practitioner, how can you know that in detail.

  The technical terms of these cars can be found through the dictionary. However, as a translation, you can't always prepare to look through the dictionary! If the foreign guest said a word, you should first look through the dictionary and then translate it. That would be a joke.

  Ms. Xu said several Japanese words one after another, and Li Weidong was able to answer them right away, and he was able to give explanations. Obviously, he was very proficient in automotive technical terms.

  At this moment, without Mr. Xu’s conclusion, Zhou Fulai is already convinced that Li Weidong is proficient in automotive terminology.

  I saw Zhou Fulai leaning against Director Wang and asked softly: "What's the name of this little comrade?"

  "His name is Li Weidong." Director Wang replied immediately.

  In the next second, Zhou Fulai put on a smile of Amitabha moving instantly, walked up to Li Weidong, and grabbed Li Weidong's hand.

  "Ms. Li, you came so timely and solved our urgent need. This time we are receiving foreign guests, it is all up to you!"

  Li Weidong looked at Zhou Fulai speechlessly. This guy was too snobbish. "Still a student" instantly became "Mr. Li"!

  　 The first chapter is delivered, everyone who has a recommendation ticket, support a wave of chants, thank you for passing the customs! Thank the dogs for eating meaty, vulgar and handsome rewards!
