Originally, Bob wanted to invite Luo Ziling to have tea with him after dinner, but Luo Ziling said that he would have something to do a little later. A friend was coming to Paris and he had to pick him up at the airport. So Bob decided to invite Luo Ziling to dinner instead.
The place where Bob had dinner was definitely of high quality, it was a private club.
This club only provides services to a limited number of dozens of members, and Bob is certainly one of the most high-end members of this club.
When Luo Ziling arrived at the club with a few of his men, Bob's car just arrived.
After getting off the car, seeing Luo Ziling, Bob quickly came up to greet him.
"Dear Luo, you are making such a big noise!" Bob stepped forward and patted Luo Ziling on the shoulder, "You are a young man after all, I can't even keep up with your pace!"
"So, does Mr. Bob support my doing this, or is he opposed to it?" After listening to Lin Lan's translation, Luo Ziling squinted his eyes and looked at Bob.
Bob smiled and made an invitation gesture to Luo Ziling: "Luo, you have been busy for a long day today, must you be hungry? I have prepared a sumptuous dinner for you today!"
Lin Lan translated Bob's words to Luo Ziling at a very fast speed. After hearing this, Luo Ziling burst out laughing: "I'm really hungry. I've had a busy day today and I'm terribly tired. I hope Mr. Bob will be here soon."
Don’t laugh at me like I was reincarnated as a starving ghost.”
Bob also laughed: "I decided that all the dishes will be served in double portions. By the way, Mr. Deman will come over soon. The three of us are friends. Do you mind eating and chatting together?"
"It's a pity that the chat between us still needs to go through an interpreter!" Luo Ziling was a little regretful.
"Luo, you should learn a few foreign languages!" Bob said earnestly: "Chinese people of your age often travel outside, and few of them understand foreign languages!"
"I think everyone should learn Chinese. After all, the Chinese-speaking population is the largest in the world, and Chinese characters are also the most beautiful and artistic writing in the world. The art of calligraphy is only available in Chinese characters. Other characters composed of letters are very
It is difficult to form the art of calligraphy. In addition, there are so many beautiful and fascinating ancient poems in China. Only by understanding Chinese characters can we truly appreciate the beauty of their artistic conception. When translated into other languages, the taste completely changes. Of course, there is the most
The important point is that China's economy and other strengths are growing rapidly, and China's role in promoting the development of the world economy and world peace is increasing day by day. It is impossible for any company to appoint a country to continue to develop without dealing with the Chinese people.
.And if you want to cooperate well with Chinese people, then understanding some Chinese culture is definitely a good choice!"
After Luo Ziling said this seriously, he smiled again: "So, I think Mr. Bob should learn some Chinese. Chinese is very easy to learn!"
"No, no, no!" After listening to Lin Lan's translation, Bob shook his head, "Chinese is the most difficult language in the world to learn, bar none. When I see those square characters, I get a headache. I can't figure it out.
How to distinguish words that look very similar."
Hearing Bob say this, Luo Ziling laughed: "Practice makes perfect, and it will come naturally if you read too much. Chinese is an evolution of hieroglyphics. Once you understand the rules, it is easy to learn. He has mastered more than a thousand Chinese characters and can basically read books and newspapers.
It’s no problem communicating with people!”
"Let young people learn it!" Bob said to Luo Ziling apologetically: "Although I am very interested in Chinese civilization, after all, I am old and Chinese is very difficult to learn. My age and my energy are not enough.
It is already difficult for me to master another foreign language."
"That's such a pity!" Luo Ziling sighed, "I also want to take you to visit those scenic spots in China that are full of historical charm after you learn some Chinese."
"I don't learn Chinese, can you still take me to visit those places? After all, I still know a little bit about Chinese history!"
"Haha, that's okay, but it lacks some flavor!"
While they were talking, the two of them had already entered the private room where they were having dinner.
The private room that Bob ordered was a well-decorated room that didn't look ostentatious at all. It was very French.
After entering the box, Luo Ziling looked at the portraits of women in the box, smiled and said to Bob: "Chinese people are more reserved than Westerners. Such paintings are difficult to be accepted in our country."
Bob looked at Luo Ziling, then at Lin Lan standing next to him, and finally just smiled without explaining anything.
As soon as the two of them sat down, Deman also appeared at the door of the box.
He immediately apologized and said he was late because of the bad traffic.
Luo Ziling quickly said that he and Bob had just arrived, and they all arrived at about the same time, so there was no need to apologize.
"Dear Luo, actually, I think we should apologize for the trouble you encountered today!" After Deman sat down, he said slowly: "We did not remind you early or help you when you were challenged by media reporters today.
So busy that your delegation encountered trouble as soon as they arrived in Paris."
"I just talked about this with Mr. Bob!" After listening to Lin Lan's translation, Luo Ziling replied with a smile: "Actually, I really want to know, do you think we are doing this right or wrong?"
Bob and Deman looked at each other and shook their heads gently: "We really can't judge right or wrong in this kind of thing. I think you have already made plans and arrangements, and everything now is really...
It developed as you planned, right?"
Deman looked at Luo Ziling, then at Bob, but he didn't say what he wanted to say right away.
"I hope that when I meet you two today, you will tell me how to help me." Luo Ziling looked at Bob and Deman seriously, "I think if our goal is achieved, then Mr. Bob and Deman will
The benefits that Mr. Mann can gain will not be less than us. Even if we have common interests, should we help each other?"
"Luo, you are very direct!" Deman showed a smile, "Actually, I also think that we should do something. However, I don't fully understand what your intention is in doing this now. I think that you started
Just stir up conflicts, which will make it difficult to deal with many things, or in other words, if things really get serious, you will be very passive, and in the end you will get nothing and the negotiation will not be concluded."
"If this is really the case, then let's think that so many of us came to Paris to do a free clinic for our compatriots." Luo Ziling smiled and said seriously: "I am a very serious person, and I don't want to be like
Like other people who lead delegations to visit Europe, they negotiate with your officials in a low-key manner. I feel that the biggest beneficiary of allowing Europe to re-accept traditional Chinese medicine is the European people, not us. Since it is
So, why do we have to be humble? Why can't we be more heroic?"
