This sentence amazed the audience. But it was not Chen Xu's first creation.

There are two rumors that created these four limericks. One is Huang Shuai during the Cultural Revolution. The other is also a girl during the Cultural Revolution. Although these four lines of poetry cannot be said to be a household name. But basically a lot of college students know about it. I take it out on weekdays to talk about it. No one has ever dared to be so arrogant. At the time of the Level 4 exam. In front of the class and the teacher. Empty open on the blackboard to write like this.

Several teachers were stunned. The teacher who was going to search for Chen Xu's headphones trembled angrily. But no one alone can say a word.

Chen Xu pinched the little bee (that is, the miniature megaphone) on the table. Coughed. Just said in front of everyone: "In the past, the ultimate purpose of learning English is to let foreigners learn Chinese after the country is strong." But nowadays, the roles of English and Chinese are reversed. So putting the cart before the horse. It is the sorrow of the whole nation! ”

Chen Xu's gaze swept over the audience: "Here I would like to reveal a piece of news to you. Up to a week later. There is no need to learn English in the whole of China. The name. ”

After speaking, Chen Xu turned around and left. The whole classroom fell into a deathly silence. But a few seconds later. Immediately, it fried as if a basin of water had been poured into a pan of oil.

Wu Yuan took the pen first. After writing the limerick poem "I am Chinese" on the test paper. packed up his things and left the classroom---- anyway, Chen Xu left, he couldn't copy it. I won't pass the exam if I stay.

Then. The people stood up and left the examination room---- these are the old birds of the juniors. Look at how strict this proctoring is. I know I can't copy it if I want to. It's better to go.

And the most important reason is what Chen Xu said about SMMH.

There's not anyone who hasn't heard of SMMH's name these days. Many people also know that Chen Xu has a close relationship with SMMH. As for the word "teacher" that he refers to. There are no surprises---- and in this exam room. All of them are computer science students. I thought that since SMMH can make the Chinese language, this anti-heaven Chinese computer language. So. Maybe he really has a way to keep everyone from learning English?

The kind of near-blind worship of SMMH. Many of them simply gave up on the English test---- not learning English themselves. That's just not going to learn.

This is in the history of the University of Hop Kyo. The most arrogant level 4 exam.

Later, it was confirmed that the fourth-level scores in the examination room where Chen Xu was located were all low---- can it not be low?! There was a commotion in the examination room during the listening test. A lot of people don't hear the next question clearly. And then many people were thinking about what Chen Xu said. What do you have to think about the exam?

The sentence "the whole of China doesn't need to learn English" is really shocking. If it's a Chen Xu who says it, it's nothing. But everyone in the computer department knows that Chen Xu and SMMH are very close. What did his teacher smmh say?

Then this sentence is definitely not empty words.

After the exam, a group of people came to Chen Xu. It is not known who notified the journalists. Sensitive to the news like a dog's nose, reporters quickly came to the door. But Chen Xu hid in his rental house and closed his door.

Although Chen Xu was not interviewed. But it's not like journalists don't run out of things to write about.

Fast. On the front pages of several major portals, there was a large news item saying "SMMAH wants to cancel English learning". Even Tencent has used the way of news windows popping up. In an instant, every QQ user received this news. Time. The internet is boiling. Countless netizens have participated in discussing the authenticity of this matter.

And Chen Xu could not be contacted. It's even more impossible to reach that smmh. So now everybody's hanging up and down there.

The enormous impact of this matter. Naturally, it alarmed the intelligence organizations of the state as well as foreign countries. The national special service team dedicated to SMMH couldn't help but rub its head. I thought that this master was too powerful. But the next time you bring something shocking. Let's talk to us, okay?

June 23rd.

Exactly three days later. Yi Shuihan, president of Shanghai S Company, suddenly held a press conference. The reporters, who had a little sense of smell, immediately became as excited as if they had been beaten with chicken blood. Swarming. In the end, the press conference venue was crowded, and even the landing of a fly was gone, and Yi Shuihan appeared in a Tang costume. It is even more perceptible to a hint of extraordinary.

Yi Shuihan deliberately appeared five minutes late. The first thing he said to the microphone was, "I'm sorry for delaying everyone." Because each of our time is invaluable. ”

"The progress and development of civilization is based on mankind's discussion and study of civilization and the world. Every child is born with nine years of compulsory education. Including myself. It is also with the education of the school to this extent. But is our learning efficient? Look at the kids now. They were all carrying heavier and heavier school bags. Wearing glasses with higher and higher prescriptions. They are expected by their parents from birth. After all, any parent wants their children to be successful in the future. Use your abilities to give yourself a happy life. They learn. Lost the joy of childhood. We have to admit it. With the progress of society. The brutality of competition. Today's children do need to give more to live a better life in the future. But we hope. Able to make the children now. So that our current students can spend their time in more useful ways. Instead of doing something that doesn't make sense. ”

Yi Shuihan finished speaking. There was a whisper in the audience.

Because the reporters who came here this time were already prepared. I was thinking about whether Yi Shuihan's press conference this time was related to the cancellation of English learning that SMMH said. And listen to Yi Shuihan's words. It does seem to have some meaning---- what he said is meaningless. It might refer to the study of English.

Dare to say that English learning, which is now almost the most important thing for students, is "something that makes no sense". He is worthy of being the president of the company under the lineage of SMMH, the god of the Internet.

Yi Shuihan smiled. continued: "Maybe the journalist friends have received some news before. What exactly is the meaningless thing I am referring to here. That's right. I'm talking about learning English! Actually, for English. Now I use a lot of it. with customers. When negotiating with foreign companies. Inevitably, this international lingua franca will be used. But for the sake of this communication, all of our children have to spend a lot of effort learning this unfamiliar language. It's really a waste of time. Even I feel it now. I spent so much time memorizing words in the past. Familiarity with grammar. Does it make sense at all? If I spend that time on other majors. Will my personal cultivation and taste be higher now?! ”

The journalists got excited. Really. The play meat is coming!

"We do need people who are proficient in multiple Chinese. But there is no need for the whole population to spend a lot of time learning it. I'm talking about talent here. It is the talent who needs to study foreign literature and history. These are things that cannot be reached with shortcuts. But the vast majority of us. The purpose of learning English is simply to communicate with foreigners. So in that case. If there is a shortcut. It can save everyone the pain of learning this unfamiliar language. It saves most of our children's learning time. Let them use that time for other studies. I think this can greatly improve the overall quality of our children. ”

"We have always advocated for reducing the burden and reducing the burden. We envy education in the United States. Because the children over there in the United States don't have that much pressure. Why is there such a big gap? Because each of us only has 24 hours a day. This piece is very fair. But English is the mother tongue in the United States. They don't need to waste time learning a new subject. A language that may not be used in the future. Naturally, they are less stressed than our children! ”

"So." Yi Shuihan showed a smile: "Welcome to the launch site of the Tower of Babel Translator." My teacher. My benefactor. SMMH, the god of the web. Proclaim to the world through my mouth: From this day forward. Exchanges between ethnic groups. will no longer be an obstacle! ”

In the cacophony of journalists. In the center of the conference floated a large, beautifully packaged software box. On the box is written in Chinese "Babel Translator" six large gilded characters!

And a sales lady walked up with a smile. In front of them was a row of laptops.

"I'm sure you've all received the news before. My teacher smmh said. It is necessary to cancel the study of English for the whole people. In fact, he did not mean to eliminate the study of English altogether. Rather, with the help of this Babel translator software. For those who are learning English only for the purpose of international communication in the future, they can save more time to learn other things. After all, we have limited time. ”

"The Babel translator. My teacher smmh's Italian works. With this translator, you can translate between Chinese and English almost perfectly. And unlike the low-level works that can only translate words literally. The translation skills of the Babel translator are almost comparable to those of a top-notch translator. Well now. I would like to ask you to experiment with the effect of this kind of translation. ”

The reporters at the scene immediately became excited. Scrambling to squeeze forward. Everyone wants to be the first to try it! Looking at the order of the venue, it was so chaotic. Yi Shuihan whispered to the staff next to him and said, "Okay." All right. Don't crowd everyone. Don't crowd everyone. Just stay where you are. Our staff has connected the translator software to the main computer. You can sit in the same place and do the experiment. ”

Upon hearing this, the reporters stopped. Raised hands as if elementary school students were answering questions.

"CCTV reporters come first."

All the reporters looked at the ccT reporters with envy. Ay. I can't compare. Who makes the home is China's no. 1 too!

CCTV reporters stood up. took the microphone handed over by the staff. "Thank you for giving me the opportunity to ask this question." So what I want to ask is how exactly is it going to be tested? Isn't it perfect for simultaneous interpretation? ”

He had just finished speaking. A magnetic male voice automatically came out of the speakers in the venue: "ThanKsFoR......"

That's what the CCTV reporter said just now!

There was a "whoop" in the audience.

There are basically very few journalists who come here with poor English skills. Everyone heard that it was just a very ordinary translation. But the level of translation is impeccable.

The CCTV reporter asked excitedly: "Then is this the same interpretation of the Babel translator?" ”

Yi Shuihan smiled and did not speak. But the translator automatically translated this passage into English.

Now the CCTV reporter is energetic. Exclaimed, "Oh my God. It's a remarkable invention. This is enough to change the entire history of humanity. Was this an SMMH invention? ”

When the translator translates it again. Journalists woke up from shock. They asked to give it a try for themselves.

And the CCTV reporter wanted to try a few more times. But I also know that although I have the largest brand at this time. But do not offend the wrath of the people. So I handed the microphone to the side.

The next person to take the microphone was a reporter from Sina.com. But when he received the microphone, he was a little dizzy. Because at this moment, he didn't even know what he wanted to say!

Actually, this is also normal. Let's say one person asks another person to write a note for him. Look at how the handwriting goes. After the person took it and picked up the pen. The brain may go blank for a moment. I don't know what to write.

But as a journalist. Presence is very important. The reporter from Sina.com hurriedly said: "How much is a pound of leeks?" ”

The translation over there immediately was: ho

The audience laughed.

But laughing at the same time. Everyone is amazed at this invention. Because it is indeed as Yi Shuihan said. With this software. Then learning a foreign language is no longer an essential thing. Because this software has passed the current test. It's very powerful. It can even recognize names and a lot of obscure words. Arguably. Many of you here really don't have as good English as this software! This amounts to a very advanced translation. There you have it. Communication will no longer be a problem!

So in addition to some talents who specialize in science and technology in the future. There is no need for others to learn English anymore.

It really is. Waste of time!

At the same time, a sadness also rose in the hearts of the reporters present.

Because every reporter present has at least a level of English level 6 or above. I don't know how much time it took to learn English---- so I won't waste it here. After all, mastering a skill is also an ability. But now look at the birth of this software. Even higher than their level of English. The reporters present all had a feeling of sadness for the dead rabbit and the fox.

It's true. What a waste of time!

But everyone knows that. The effect of this software is incomparable. Although this generation has suffered a lot. But the next generation. Even the children in the future really don't have to suffer...... Look at today's kids. English is taught from kindergarten onwards. How tired are you? The level of English is higher than that of Chinese. It's a deformed development trend in itself!

At this time, the trial is almost over. Yi Shuihan said that he would give each reporter a set of collector's edition of the "Tower of Babel Translator" software later. So that you can try it out for the first time.

It's question time again. A reporter from Sohu asked: "I would like to ask if the "Tower of Babel Translator" software can only be translated into Chinese and English. Can other languages such as Japanese, French, German, etc. be translated? ”

"Yes." Yi Shuihan replied: "But the "Tower of Babel Translator" we released is only for Chinese-English translation. Because the demand for this is the greatest. Translations into other languages are required. It can even include dialects. The information in the translator is enormous. It includes the dialects of all sides of the country. The recognition rate is also above 90 percent. There is an additional charge for this translation. Charges are made at the request of the user. ”

"And how much does it cost?"

"The distribution price of the Tower of Babel Translator software in China is 288 yuan a set. If you need to add a language, you will need to pay an additional 100 RMB. A complete list of Chinese dialects has been added to the Translator. Because according to the wishes of my teacher. The original purpose of this software was to make it convenient for the Chinese people. ”

The price of 288 yen. An increase of 100 yuan. Not only is this money not expensive. It's too cheap!

Because the value of this software is so great. It's immeasurably big...... Think about it. How much does it cost to buy a set of foreign language books to study?! Not to mention saving money in this regard. The time saved is also huge!

Yi Shuihan coughed. After a quiet moment, he said, "The initial size of The Babel Translator is 1. 56GB。 That is, the size of the thesaurus containing both Chinese and English is like this. Other words. Such a small size of the software can even be installed in mobile phones and voice recorders. Of course, the premise is that mobile phones and voice recorders have platforms that support the software. We are in contact with some mobile phone manufacturers. I hope to be able to cooperate with them in depth. It makes future communication more convenient. ”

The reporters in the audience were talking for a while. And immediately a foreign reporter asked: "So since "Babel Translator" supports the output of Chinese to various languages. So should we also support the translation of various foreign languages? For example, the translation between French and German. This is perfectly feasible in theory. Is it? ”

"Not theoretically. It's because my teacher has actually provided us with the technology. Use the Tower of Babel Translator. You can input in any language. Output in any language. People all over the world from now on. Except for a very small number of ethnic groups with very special languages. You can communicate at will. ”

"So how much does this international translator software cost?"

"Five thousand dollars." Yi Shui Han threw a voice: "Love to buy or not." "There's a chapter. As for whether it is 3,000 words or 4,000 words, it depends on the speed and status.
