“Bonjour！”

“Bonjour，，beautempsaujourd＇hui。”

There was a conversation here with two French morning greetings, and one of them was the voice of a little girl of sixteen or seventeen, and the other was the voice of a young woman in her twenties. And they're having a conversation. If you don't know, you think it's two people talking face to face, but it's actually a girl talking to a computer. Lin Tingting is holding a microphone and talking to the computer, if it is an ordinary person, it is impossible to imagine that the computer can know what you are talking about and be able to make an accurate reply.

"Lin Tingting, how is it?" Shang Zhenwu asked.

Lin Tingting immediately said excitedly: "Teacher Shang, this software is so good, it's really good." In the past, when I was learning a language, there was nothing to help me communicate orally. And I studied to be good at written exams, not good at speaking. But it's great that you can recognize conversations. I felt like I was talking to a real person, and it was so good. Much better than any software used to learn foreign languages, he was able to practice speaking and was not afraid of any dumb foreign language. ”

And Shang Zhenwu smiled, this foreign language learning software from 2040 is really bullish, this foreign language software from later generations in 2040 Even if most of the functions have been removed because of the computer performance of this era, it can still recognize language and words, so that they can answer themselves. He is able to judge the meaning of words and words, so that he can make the most correct answers, which can be said to be almost against the sky. You must know that the search engines on the Internet nowadays are just identifying keywords. But identifying a keyword and identifying what it means are two different things.

For example, if you search for a certain two words on the Internet, the search engine will also get you to find the web pages with these two words. However, to identify the meaning of a keyword, that is, to provide all the information about the meaning of the word. So to be able to understand the meaning of the words, it is already very advanced technology, and even has a bit of artificial intelligence.

And Shang Zhenwu, according to the old Jia in later generations, in later generations, the level of electronic technology of human beings has been able to reach a large extent of artificial intelligence, and there is even such a thing as intelligent elves. So it's not surprising that after a few decades, something so good must have a very good carrier to carry it. With the current level of computers, it is not enough to be able to drive an intelligent elf, so Shang Zhenwu can only ask Lao Jia to remove most of the functions, so that this foreign language can run.

However, even if most of the functions of the foreign language pass have been removed, it is not something that can be measured by those foreign language learning software in this era. The programming algorithm used by this foreign language master has been ahead of the entire era for I don't know how many generations. If it weren't for the removal of most of the functions, and the help of the hacker Lao Jia, he would not have been able to make this foreign language fluent work on the machine of this era.

"Teacher Shang, can you learn other foreign languages? For example, Japanese and Russian? Lin Tingting asked.

Shang Zhenwu replied affirmatively: "Yes, as long as the corresponding module is added, it is fine." If you want, then I'll go to my friend in a while and ask him to add a module to it! ”

Lin Tingting continued: "Teacher Shang, with this thing, then I can also practice speaking in the future." I don't believe it, those guys still say we're dumb foreign languages! They said we were only good at written exams, which was too tricky. ”

"In fact, some guys say that my country's foreign language is only good at written exams, and this is not wrong. Could it be that foreigners can also be good at oral communication? In an environment where you don't have a place to practice speaking, how can you make people good at oral communication? Most of our students are learning Chinese in our country, and there is no opportunity to practice speaking a foreign language. They boil it down to the system, but this is completely ridiculous. If you don't have the opportunity to practice a foreign language, it becomes a systemic problem? If you want to practice speaking, the best way is to communicate with a foreigner. But where are there so many foreigners in our country? Even if you don't hire a foreigner, then you can hire a professional translator, and the cost is not small. Therefore, increasing the proportion of speaking exams is completely biased in favor of those who have financial means. In fact, I have a little foundation for foreign languages, and there is no need to be profound. As long as you lay a foundation, it will be much easier even if you want to love you and study in the future. It is impossible to expect to be able to develop fluent spoken language from an early age. The environment in our country does not allow it, even if the French learn English from an early age, in a situation where there is no suitable environment, it will definitely not work. ”

"Some fools say that foreigners can learn many foreign languages since they were young, but that is just an opportunity to practice. Although I don't want to admit it, it must be said that the flow of people in Europe is much more dense than ours, and the degree of communication between many countries is very large. Every country has people from other European countries, so they often have the opportunity to practice their speaking. And where in our country how many foreigners are coming? And some people say that Vietnam is multilingual and even speaks Chinese. But in fact, if it weren't for the frequent visits of Chinese tourists, how could they have the opportunity to practice Chinese? ”

"It's the same in any country, and if you don't have the opportunity to practice, you can't learn to speak a foreign language. Although there may be some geniuses, you can't expect everyone to be geniuses, geniuses only exist in legends. ”

As a student majoring in Chinese as a foreign language, Shang Zhenwu knows that learning spoken foreign languages depends on the environment, and if there is no suitable environment, it will be useless. The Chinese he learns as a foreign language, which is understood literally, is to teach Chinese to foreigners, and there are several foreign teachers in his school, which is the reason why he can learn spoken Chinese well. However, other universities do not have this condition at all, and even other majors in his normal university do not have this condition. Expecting to practice speaking without conditions is simply. According to Shang Zhenwu's understanding, even if an uneducated person is thrown into a foreign country, it won't be long before he will be able to understand a foreign language, although he can't speak, but it is not a problem to understand it. This is also because of the environment, if there is no environment, isn't it difficult for a strong man?

"Teacher Shang, can I take this foreign language pass home and install it?" Lin Tingting asked.

Shang Zhenwu replied: "Yes, you can copy the installation package back, and then go home and install it." This foreign language pass is nothing special, and you can use it later to practice speaking. This way your spoken language can improve by leaps and bounds, and even this one can be used as a translation software. As long as you can be near the computer, it can help you translate to a certain extent. ”

Lin Tingting immediately asked excitedly: "Is it possible that you don't need to ask for a translator in the future?" ”

"I'm afraid this won't work. Didn't you see that I started this foreign language pass, and my eight-core computer is already running 100%? The memory capacity is also heavily encroached upon, so when this foreign language communication is running, it is very consuming processor performance and memory, and the current mobile devices are too poor to be able to integrate into it. ”

As a person who learns Chinese as a foreign language, Shang Zhenwu certainly knows the power of this foreign language. Because he also has that translation function, which is enough to make translators all over the world ruin their jobs, but at the moment they still don't have these casual carrying. Even if most of the functions have been removed, the loss of processor and memory is extremely huge, and he has made the processor of this eight-core computer run 100%, and the memory loss is also a lot.

Shang Zhenwu knew that if he used this foreign language, then he wouldn't want to open other software. Even if you use this foreign language to learn a foreign language often, the wear and tear on the computer is extremely huge. Originally, if the average life span of a computer was three years, then now I am afraid that it will be good to be able to use this foreign language for a year. This foreign language is not something that ordinary people can afford, you must be rich! Shang Zhenwu has no choice, he doesn't have much to do about the current development of electronic technology.

However, even if it were, it was enough to be an epoch-making piece of software. The intelligence of this foreign language is simply not like the software of this era, which is enough to make people feel breathtaking. So Lin Tingting also feels too powerful, and people who don't learn foreign languages don't know the practicality of this software. And if you are a person who studies the computer industry, you will definitely be shocked by this software, because this foreign language master already has a weak artificial intelligence. This is still the case of most of the functions that have been cut, and if the functions are not removed, then she can even have a complete artificial intelligence.

"Teacher Shang, can I recommend it to someone else? I also have some friends who may be in great need of this as well, can I recommend it to others? Lin Tingting asked.

Shang Zhenwu nodded and said, "Yes!" ”

"Mr. Shang, you can apply for a patent! This is an epoch-making thing, and if you can use this software, learning to speak will no longer be a problem. I think a lot of people will be willing to come and learn, especially those that involve foreign affairs. I think many foreign affairs personnel in the government, or foreign trade people, are also willing to learn. Although this thing consumes computers, it is not important for foreign affairs departments or foreign trade companies. On the contrary, what they need is a large number of people who can speak foreign languages, people who are proficient in spoken foreign languages, and they really don't have to worry about working anywhere! Lin Tingting said. 、

After Shang Zhenwu heard this, he couldn't help but feel a little moved, because if it could be promoted, it would definitely make a lot of profits. Those who are interested in working in foreign affairs, especially in the foreign affairs department of the government, or foreign trade, are scarce in such talents who know spoken foreign languages. As for those who are proficient in speaking, they don't have to worry about finding a job anywhere. Being fluent in a foreign language and being proficient in spoken English are two different things. Many people think that the English teachers in the school are very good and know a lot of English. But as Shang Zhenwu, a person who learns language education, he can only "hum". In some schools, foreign language teachers seem to be very good, but they only know those few sentences, and they only know the few sentences in the daily textbooks. Those foreign language teachers are actually experienced, and they teach according to an assembly line model, they don't need to know many other foreign languages, they just need to know the ones in the textbook process.

So in fact, many foreign language teachers only know the few sentences that the textbook wants to teach, and if they are really all spoken with foreigners, it may not take them all ten minutes to show their stuff.

And those who can communicate proficiently in foreign languages are definitely scarce talents, and they don't have to worry about going anywhere. I even heard that for those who are good at oral communication, especially those who are good at communicating in small languages, even government departments can't find all of them, and business is even more lacking. Many people have even heard that some translators from the government's foreign affairs departments have come out to take on private jobs, although the government departments also want to ban it, but the market demand is so big that you can't ban it at all. What's more, if you really fire him, the government departments will also lose a talent, and the cost is not small, and it will be a problem where to find one when the time comes. So sometimes, you can only turn a blind eye, as long as people don't delay the work of the government, it doesn't matter.

Therefore, proficiency in spoken English, that is a huge demand. Those who really want to learn to speak will not be stingy with a high-end computer. How much does a high-spec computer cost? At most, it will not be more than 10,000 yuan, and if you can use it for a year, the cost of learning spoken Chinese in that year is not too high, and it is much better than hiring a professional translator. After all, if you don't even want to invest in your studies, how can you really hope to get a good job?

Studying in school from an early age only gives you a foundation, and the real test for you is whether you can make progress in your work. Therefore, as long as there are people who are interested in engaging in any foreign industry, they will definitely not be stingy with this investment. Even many bosses and government departments are willing to reimburse you for learning, which is the truth. In any era, talents are rare!

"Teacher Shang, I've finished copying, then I'll send it to my friends right now!" Lin Tingting said.

"Okay, take it and send it!" Shang Zhenwu replied.
