Chapter 660 Wow, You Actually Know French
Chapter 660 Wow, you actually know French
The French service attitude is really amazing. Zhao Jianhui followed them up to the second floor and saw that the upper floor was much larger than the lower floor. Only then did he understand that on this street, the shops below were more popular. Some shops did not need the second floor, so they only rented the lower floor, and the rooms on the second floor were rented to the adjacent shops. At first, Zhao Jianhui saw that there were stairs in this store and thought that the upper floor was the same as in China, where the staff rested and stayed.
According to the body shape of several women, several sets of clothes were selected, and several pairs of shoes were matched according to the style of the clothes. Later, I thought about it and added a few watches. In this way, with the bags selected below, basically a set of luggage is complete.
He swiped the card very casually, wrote down the address and asked the store to deliver it directly to the hotel. When he walked out relaxedly, he happened to meet Tao Lan, Jing Xiaoru and the wives of several directors. "Secretary Zhao, you are here. I just wanted to find you and tell you that we are going to the Galeries Lafayette. Do you want to go?"
"Me?" Zhao Jianhui thought to himself that I just don't want to wander around. I almost bought everything I wanted to buy in one store. But I heard that Galeries Lafayette is very famous. It's good to go and see it once. So he nodded and said, "You know the way. Why don't you bring a tour guide?"
Jing Xiaoru smiled and raised the map in her hand: "I have a tour guide here..."
Zhao Jianhui looked at it and asked, "Do you know French?"
Jing Xiaoru nodded: "Yes, when I was in school, French was my second foreign language. But... I can't speak it well, but I can still understand it by reading."
"Oh, so that's the case?" Zhao Jianhui nodded and smiled. In fact, now Chinese people learn foreign languages. As long as they are not professional, whether it is English or other languages, writing and translating are not a big problem during the exam. It's just that it's more difficult to speak.
In the final analysis, it's still a problem of the overall environment. Walking on the street, you can hardly hear many people speaking foreign languages. After graduating from college, some people's careers are basically isolated from foreign languages. However, foreign languages account for a large proportion of the course in the college entrance examination. If you don't learn it, you really can't do it.
Thinking of Zhao Jianhui, it feels funny. Although Zhao Jianhui himself is proficient in the languages of several countries, he is still very sad and angry when talking about this matter. Some of the children who grew up with him in the orphanage were good at Chinese, politics, mathematics, physics and chemistry, but they failed in foreign languages in the college entrance examination.
In this matter, we are not as good as the neighboring island country Dongyang people.
In Dongyang Island, there are also English cram schools in society, but only some elderly people or housewives go to participate, and there are very few students and young people. There are also level tests in their universities, but there is no regulation on how many levels must be passed to obtain a graduation certificate. When recruiting employees in a company, except for some positions that require direct use of foreign languages, English is generally not assessed. Most companies do not have the so-called English professional qualification examination, and job promotion has nothing to do with English proficiency.
On the contrary, this country attaches great importance to traditional cultural education. For example, the traditional etiquette from a long time ago has been followed by the Orientals. In addition, there are many sacrificial activities, which are the promotion and inheritance of traditional culture. Children have been educated in traditional culture in their daily lives since they were born, such as observing traditional etiquette when dealing with their parents.
The island country Orientals learn English to solve the problem of knowledge absorption and transformation. English education is only to cultivate a few people, and then through them to achieve knowledge sharing for all people. The domestic model is that all people learn English, which takes too much time and energy, but is rarely applied. More people throw away the foreign language they have learned for more than ten years since childhood after leaving school, and they will never use it again in their lives.
The most ridiculous thing is that English is also tested in various professional title examinations. It is simply a way for some painters, calligraphers, singers, dramatists, and film and television performing artists to sigh and have to solve it through alternative ways. If it is counterfeiting, these people basically have no chance to escape.
Take bus No. 32 from the Champs Elysees for about four or five stops, get off, and walk for another 5 minutes to the famous Galeries Lafayette department store in Paris.
The world's top luxury goods are sold here, and almost every item is priced sky-high. Most people who come here can only look at it.
Surprisingly, most of the people who shop here are young people from China.
Zhao Jianhui saw many young people shopping lavishly here, and the mall also has a special Chinese reception desk. Each counter has a Chinese-speaking receptionist who enthusiastically recommends products to the Chinese. It shows that the shopping ability of the Chinese is well-known in Paris. This also shows the serious disparity between the rich and the poor in China and the polarization.
Looking at the goods, many people can only sigh sadly. Some of them may be able to spend lavishly, but they dare not show their eyes at this time. Zhao Jianhui will not make a fool of himself at this time. After all, as a municipal party secretary, if you shop a lot abroad, it will make some people suspicious when you report it back.
"Look, there are so many people selling paintings. I've seen them on TV before. Let's get one too." Back on the Champs-Elysées, strolling in front of a lush green lawn, Jing Xiaoru cried out in surprise as if she had discovered something new. She actually took Zhao Jianhui's hand and walked towards an old man who was painting.
In the square, an old man was painting, and many people were around him.
Fortunately, the group of people who were shopping in the mall had dispersed at this time, and only Tao Lan was still following behind. "Hey, what are you doing? Don't think that older people have better skills. Art is not limited by age."
"I know. I checked the information online when I came here. Those are painters, and some are very famous." Jing Xiaoru didn't know why Zhao Jianhui suddenly got angry. She thought that Zhao Jianhui didn't like the painter she chose, so she explained to him with a little helplessness.
The three people stood behind the old man and watched him paint. After watching for more than ten minutes, Jing Xiaoru said quietly: "Forget it, let's not paint anymore. It's meaningless."
"Don't speak French? There is no way to communicate with others, right?" Zhao Jianhui pointed out the situation Jing Xiaoru is facing now. With a malicious smile on his face, Jing Xiaoru almost pushed Jing Xiaoru to the edge of running away.
"Hey, Secretary Zhao, how do you know this is the case? This girl is often like this, and she always speaks as she thinks." Tao Lan also said with a smile behind her.
"Is it embarrassing that you can speak French? Director Tao, I can't speak it, or you can try to speak a few words?" Although she knew that she was deliberately irritating Tao Lan, Tao Lan really didn't have any temper, because she couldn't speak it herself.
What surprised Zhao Jianhui was how this little girl dared to talk to her boss like this?
Looking at the expression on Zhao Jianhui's face, Tao Lan smiled and said, "Secretary Zhao doesn't know, this girl has been like this since she was a child. Sometimes she looks careless and has no schemes, but she is very serious when she works. I have watched her grow up since she was a child and she is used to talking to me."
Zhao Jianhui couldn't help but look at Tao Lan. This woman is not an ordinary person. Zhiji just glanced at Jing Xiaoru, and she immediately knew what she was thinking. Otherwise, how can people say that most of the country's elites are in the officialdom? No matter whether it is a man or a woman, as long as they can get along well on this road, there is no simple person.
"I seem to remember that you are from the Construction Bureau. Why are you following the Tourism Bureau now?" It seems that Jing Xiaoru brought a city planning plan for him to read a few days ago.
"Hehe... Secretary Zhao, you are really forgetful. Xiaoru and I are originally from the Tourism Bureau. It's just that you set up the Sangge Working Group, and we were transferred to assist Mayor Zhang. The organizational relationship is still in the Tourism Bureau." Tao Lan smiled sweetly, and she was also very charming.
"Oh, so that's the case. Haha, Jing Xiaoru, tell me how you want this old man to be painted, I will tell him... Is this angle okay as the background?" Zhao Jianhui said, pointing to a piece of grass behind him and asked Jing Xiaoru.
"No, I want the building behind me as the background..." Jing Xiaoru is still a child after all. She has not been working for a long time. She didn't even know the necessary explanation that Tao Lan had just made for her words and deeds.
Being able to go out with the leader to play is a good opportunity to get close to the leader and let the leader understand you, but being looked down upon by the leader in daily life, no matter how hard you work, it is basically useless.
So, when Zhao Jianhui just had some ideas about Jing Xiaoru, Tao Lan hurriedly made timely remedies on the side, which saved the "bad" impression that Jing Xiaoru's careless speech left on Zhao Jianhui. Now seeing that she is still so innocent and heartless, Zhao Jianhui looked at Tao Lan and couldn't help but smile slightly.
So, he walked over and said a few words to the old man who was painting. The old man nodded and pointed at Jing Xiaoru with a smile.
Jing Xiaoru couldn't help but asked in surprise: "Wow, Secretary Zhao, you actually know French?"
"Of course, but it doesn't matter if you don't understand, you can use English." Zhao Jianhui said with a smile.
Jing Xiaoru stood there, and the old man quickly painted Jing Xiaoru's portrait. Tao Lan looked at it and said with a smile: "It's very realistic, just like a photo."
At this moment, Zhao Jianhui grabbed the arm of a young boy with fiery red hair and dressed like a hippie: "You have been following me for a long time, right? Take out all your things?"
