Yu Xinrou took her seat, smiling and nodding to the old professors in the judge's seats, as though she was an obedient, yet sensible and obedient kid.
Just then, the old professor who asked Yang Hong a question raised his head and spoke again: "Your name is Yu Xinrou?"
He had only had such a reaction after reading through it in detail.
She blinked at the old professor's tall eyebrows and immediately realized. Did he recognize me?
Tsk, tsk, this old mister really likes to make a fuss.
"Then you are also Zhu Zhiwei's student?" He actually used the tone of a statement.
"I am." Alright, it seems like I've really figured it out.
The old professor laughed: "So Zhu Zhiwei's favorite disciple is you. I heard that you got first place in the Annual Examination, you got a soft spot for the scholarship right?"
The old professor smiled kindly, as if he liked young people with good grades.
Seeing that he was praised so highly in front of so many people, Yu Xinrou felt quite embarrassed.
She said modestly: "It's alright, Zhu Zhiwei is indeed my professional teacher, Yang Hong is also my senior." With that, he smiled at Yang Hong.
Yang Hong evidently did not expect that a colleague from the same department, would actually be the same major. He had a good impression of Yu Xinrou, but now, he felt closer.
"Are you all right? Little girl, you are being too modest. Fine, after this matter is over, you can stay and chat with us, and Yang Hong as well! " The old professor laughed.
Yu Xinrou and Yang Hong also smiled as they agreed.
Then her match officially began.
The topic that Yu Xinrou selected was a meeting and conversation between two political leaders during the visit of the British Prime Minister to the United States. It was also a translation from English into Chinese.
However, they could only see the entire video on their learning platform.
Everyone present felt that this translation was the most difficult of all the questions. Because his subject matter was very new, so far, not more than five days. The content is also difficult, involving the latest political hot topic of the day.
Based on the degree to which they have updated their knowledge, they are not sure that they can translate it in its entirety.
Yu Xinrou was their new little colleague from Floor 30, she had very little experience at work, she was sure that she had very little knowledge reserve, so the way they looked at Yu Xinrou was filled with sympathy.
However, the truth greatly surprised them.
The corner of Yu Xinrou's mouth curled up imperceptibly, but in reality, she was laughing maniacally deep within her heart. Awesome! The news was in the latest magazine.
Although it was the Chinese version, she had already memorized the key words. She did not expect to draw this one today.
Thus, with a nearly perfect level of skill, Yu Xinrou completed the simultaneous interpretation phase of the competition.
The glasses they had picked up fell off again.
Some people were still whispering to each other.
"Cough, no way. Why would she have such a difficult problem?"
"What's wrong with that? My luck is good." The other woman was a little jealous.
"That's true, it's obviously impossible to get the answers to the questions. The questions in the box were all written in front of our eyes. It was still a random drawing of the replay. It can only be explained by her luck. "
"Sigh, how come we don't have that kind of luck?"
Seeing that her performance was not bad, the judges looked happy. The old professor even secretly gave Yu Xinrou a big thumbs up.
The manager looked at her with a surprised expression. Obviously, he did not expect Yu Xinrou to be so capable, much better than what she had imagined. However, this also made her happy.
Yu Xinrou heaved a sigh of relief, and silently walked towards the empty ground. Next came the second stage, the alternative translation.
This time, one of the professors who came up was the old professor who knew Yu Xinrou.
They simulated the scene where, in the VIP lounge of the airport, the representatives of the two countries engaged in a business conversation.
Hearing the contents of the competition, Yu Xinrou's mouth twitched. Tsk, are all the professors nowadays so brainy? Are they all that fond of playing?
Halfway through the translation process, everything went smoothly without a hitch. Yu Xinrou found it strange, everyone was waiting for the temporary situation to happen.
Everyone agreed that the topic this time was simple, because the first phase was difficult and the second phase was simple enough to reach the average.
The clinker, they think too much.
These old professors weren't vegetarian, they had a lot of moths.
Just as Yu Xinrou was talking about the location of the new products, the business representative for China called a ringtone.
In order to make the simulation more realistic, everyone could see it with more emotion. The phone really did ring. Yu Xinrou saw from the corner of her eyes that there was an old man in the judging area with his head lowered, sneaking around with his head down.
Naturally, the representative of the Chinese side made an excuse to call and walk away for a while. Thus, Yu Xinrou and the American representative were left at the scene, and this American representative was played by the old professor.
Yu Xinrou explained to him in English that the representative of the Chinese company had matters to attend to before she left. She had always been in a very calm state, and did not act in a disorderly and awkward manner because of an unexpected situation.
The old professor smiled and said, "I like Chinese culture very much. I usually read books about it. From the summer to the Qing history story I have read, very much like the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors ah, Qin Shi Huang and Li Shimin.
"But in the face of a well-organized ancient history, I am more curious about China's ancient and mysterious classical myths, which are a romantic existence, so I would like to hear what you have to say?"
After Yu Xinrou listened to him carefully, the old professor spoke very fluently and clearly. At first, she thought that the old professor wanted to hear some historical stories, but she suddenly changed the topic into a mythical story.
However, she was even more adept at this.
Every night before she went to sleep, she would accompany the traditional Chinese fairy tales, because she had always liked the traditional Chinese culture since she was young. She was also influenced by her grandfather, so she was very close to these things.
She thought that the Classic of the Mountains and Seas was the first book to tell fairy tales, so she finished it all. When she was in college, she had written a essay on these subjects, and she had a vague impression of the storyline in English.
Yu Xinrou muttered to herself for a second or two, organized her thoughts and slowly explained herself.
