Chapter 35 Second Assessment
"The parting politeness of the lord of the country, and the concern of the Yan official family, are all wavering. Now the slight hesitation is just the thinking of the head of a country, and he is unwilling to make an impulsive choice. ”
Yan Lan analyzed them one by one and said, "Presumably, the lord of the country will definitely convene the major eunuchs tonight to conduct some research and consider the gains and losses." However, I think that in terms of the biggest predicament of our neighbors right now, the chances of successful negotiations between the two countries are very high. ”
Only then did the group suddenly realize, Yan Minglan smiled happily, and only felt that it was full of a sense of accomplishment.
This simulation drill system is really good.
Sure enough, as Yanlan said, the next day the lord of the country sent someone to invite Yan Minglan to conduct a further discussion on the transaction. Yan Minglan got the emperor's arbitrary order to go to the appointment, expressing full sincerity.
The lord of the neighboring country said that after a group of people and others, the method proposed by Yan Minglan to refine seawater was feasible, and he hoped to negotiate with him.
Yan Minglan happily agreed, and signed the contract stating that once the two countries began to cooperate, our country would immediately send people to assist in teaching, and until everyone in the neighboring countries understood it, they would evacuate with confidence.
The lord of the neighboring country thanked Yan Minglan for her thoughtfulness, and was embarrassed not to say a word or two. said that if Yan Minglan can really solve the urgent water flow problem of her neighbors, then the right to introduce new vegetables will not only be given to them, but she is even willing to bring them back seedlings, so that new vegetables can take root and sprout in her country.
"It's amazing!"
It was really an unexpected joy, Yan Minglan and his party cheered.
It was not until the successful handover between the two countries and the successful consensus reached in the process of cooperation between the two countries that Yan Minglan's negotiation task was completely completed, and this simulation exercise really came to an end.
Returning to the spiritual world again, Yan Minglan was still in a trance. It was the machine spirit that sensed the resonance and woke her up.
"Thank you."
This is what Yan Minglan wants to say to the machine spirit the most after going through a translator mission.
Ji Ling sighed that this was only a simulation exercise, and Yan Minglan had made qualitative progress, not only in the oral negotiation between the two countries, but also in other abilities. Seeing that her indicators are getting better and better, the machine spirit is also very happy.
After communicating with one person and one machine spirit for a while, Yan Minglan returned to the real world. If she remembers correctly, it was still afternoon when she entered the spiritual world, and now she has experienced two days and one night of simulation drills, but it is only evening.
But an hour or two, it's really convenient.
Yan Minglan once again sighed at the magic of the mysterious country and the vast power of novelties.
In the next few days, Yan Minglan devoted herself to the intense review work of the translators, and experienced two or three virtual replica exercises between countries. In a realistic reproduction instrument drill, the examiner surnamed Zheng was used as the reflection figure to carry out the run-in of the second assessment.
Soon, it was time for the second assessment account. Unlike the last time the streets were flooded, this time there were obviously more than half fewer candidates, but the number was not small.
Fortunately, this time Yan Minglan learned the lesson of the last time, and walked with Amber to the assessment position on foot. This time, a total of three examiners need to be reviewed, just like a level, only one person can be seen at a time.
Amber was as nervous as ever, and Yan Minglan had a lot of confidence with the help of the spiritual world in the past few days. However, she didn't dare to relax and wait for the assessment to begin.
Fortunately, this time there is no need to be in the same examination room with Yan Luoyi, and the top five are deliberately assigned to different positions. Yan Minglan, as the leader of the first assessment, is very eye-catching, some are jealous and some are envious, and it is difficult for her to keep a low profile.
"The assessment begins! All candidates are ordered to enter the venue! ”
In the midst of the disturbance, the official sat at the gate and began to read everyone's names one by one according to the list.
"Lin Yi enters!"
As the first person, he is naturally very spied on. Yan Minglan was no exception and was full of curiosity, trying to get some information after this candidate came out.
But who knew that Lin Yi had just entered not long ago, but he walked out dejected after a stick of incense, no one looked at it, no one said anything, and left the examination room directly with the books.
For a while, everyone talked about it, and they all said that the three examiners were interviewed, but as a result, Lin Yi should have been brushed off directly in the first scene. Some people say that the strength is not good, and some people say that the second assessment is really different, and there are mysteries everywhere.
Yamen continued to speak, his face calm. At least half of the candidates who went in returned from the original way, or left the examination room in a depressed or angry manner, and met friends who only said that the assessment accounts were confidential and could not be said!
At this moment, the candidates whose names were not read were apprehensive, and began to sweat in their hands, and they were afraid of the unknown. On the contrary, Yan Minglan did not squint, and kept sitting in the same position, with a pale face.
I don't know why, she always feels that the first test has come, and it is the ability to deal with random situations and unknown situations that translators need to have, as well as their psychological quality.
If the three examiners were present, they would have to be surprised by Yan Minglan's keen perception, which was really a natural piece of material, which was shocking.
"Next, Yan Minglan!"
The official also noticed that the only calm girl, and now she saw that she was the first in the last round, and she had a very stressful expectation.
The same is true for others, who are invisibly betting on whether Yan Minglan can clear the customs, whether it is true ability or just luck.
Yan Minglan ignored all kinds of eyes and went in. Unexpectedly, there were other officials waiting in the assessment courtyard, and when he saw someone, he beckoned and motioned for Yan Minglan to come over.
"Candidates, sign and draw first."
The official handed over the ink, along with an agreement.
Non-Disclosure Agreement......
Yan Minglan now understood why the failed candidates who went out wanted to stop talking, it turned out that the mysteries were all here.
As mentioned above, the content of the second level of the assessment must be announced when the results are announced, otherwise the results of the promotion will be cancelled, and the failure will be deprived of the qualification for ten years.
Yan Minglan signed and detained, and the official let her in.
In the first room, the examiner was sitting precariously and raised his hand to signal Yan Minglan to sit in front of him. With a solemn face, the majesty of living in officialdom for a long time can easily make these newborn calves frightened.
It's a pity that Yan Minglan is indifferent, even the emperors of all countries have seen the simulation drill, how can they retreat to the examiner?
"You are Yan Minglan who won the first prize?"
"Exactly."
The examiner looked Yan Minglan up and down a few times, and began to rummage through various files.
After a while, he coughed a few times and said: "In recent years, due to the mistake of a translator in the diplomacy between my country and Wu, the simple grammar was translated incorrectly, resulting in great loss in my country's transactions. Have you heard of this? ”
Yan Minglan nodded, naturally impressed by such a sensational event. At that time, my father was going to sea to discuss things with other countries, and no one expected that something would happen. It is said that it was still a ten-year contract, and the emperor suffered heavy losses in order to bear the mistakes of the interpreters.
"What do you think?"
What the examiner wants to ask is the candidate's opinion on the huge mistake of putting himself in the position of translator.
Yan Minglan pondered for a moment, and then said slowly: "When I learned about this incident at that time, the first thing I thought of was that this translator was derelict in his own work, and the huge damage caused to the country was irreparable. After thinking about it repeatedly, I have a deeper understanding of the responsibilities that translators need to bear. It's definitely more than just a hub for communication between the two countries......"
As he listened, the examiner nodded his head and his eyes lit up. It wasn't until Yan Minglan said that the admiration could not be hidden.
"Good! It deserves to be the first number one strength! Although there are still some places where the opinion is immature, it is really good! ”
With a wave of the examiner's robe, he let Yan Minglan go, all the way to the second level.
Yan Minglan went in, and the examiner was a little cold compared to the first place, and he didn't raise his head, motioning for her to sit.
"What do you understand about the translator?"
Be concise and straight to the point.
Yan Minglan should not relax in any way, and should be careful: "The translator I understand is not only the hub of communication between the two countries, but also should put the responsibilities and interests of a country in the forefront......
waited until she spoke eloquently, and the examiner, who had always been indifferent, finally looked at her once.
"You go in."
Obviously, Yan Minglan has successfully cleared the customs again.
waited until her back disappeared in the house of the second level, and the examiner of the first level finally appeared and patted the indifferent examiner on the shoulder.
"How, this seedling is good! If you enter the translation institute in the future, don't rob me! ”
"Hmph."
The indifferent examiner was noncommittal and did not agree positively.
It turned out that the examiners for this second assessment were all selected by the Institute of Translation and Interpretation by lot, and the three of them were all veterans with extraordinary qualifications, and they were the most vicious.
This is also the reason why at the beginning half of the candidates failed to eat, and the three examiners only needed a glance to see who was sincerely coming for the translator, and who was forced by various family and external conditions to deal with it.
For this kind of thing, no matter how deep you learn, you will always encounter a bottleneck when you enter the profession of translator.
"I heard that this girl is the daughter of Yan Lao."
The words of the indifferent examiner attracted the babbling of the examiner at the first level.
The two are noisy for the time being, Yan Minglan here has already entered the third level.
The examiner, who was asleep, obviously didn't expect someone to come, so he quickly wiped his mouth and motioned for Yan Minglan to come over.
"I'll see, oh, the top spot."
Meaning unclear vision, meaning unclear tone.
The examiner is different from the previous two times, he does not get straight to the point and does not ask questions. just started a small talk with Yan Minglan, and the questions asked were all marginal, which was very puzzling.
"What would you do if you were far away in the suburbs and it was late at night?"
"What would you do if your father and mother were in danger at the same time?"
"What would you do if you had a conflict with someone?"
……
Perhaps many candidates will be impatient at this level, or they will cope with it as they please. But Yan Minglan was different, and responded cautiously and cautiously one by one, always feeling that the third level examiner's tentative mind was similar to when he was waiting outside before. This is not a test of the translator's professional ability, but a variety of aspects of the work.
