Chapter 047: Accosting Teacher Niu
Of course, Bai Ou is not an ignorant young man, he is a cadre who came down from the general factory, a forty-year-old cadre at the department level, and in this era when there are many old cadres, he can be regarded as a young cadre.
He could see that this Zheng Dongyun was obviously deliberately looking for Li Lu's stubble.
Li Lu is a person, he heard about it after he arrived at the factory. One of the things I heard the most was that the young deputy section chief was a combat hero who came down from the battlefield and knew Russian. Combat heroes and those who know Russian are nothing separately, nothing remarkable.
The protracted war has created a large number of heroes, and the former comrade-brother relationship has also led to the emergence of a group of people who are proficient in Russian.
However, the two labels of combat hero and proficient in Russian appear in one person at the same time, which is very unusual. As we all know, those who serve in the army have little education, and those who know foreign languages are even rarer.
Twenty-year-old deputy section chief, combat hero, proficient in Russian, several labels get together, and it is impossible not to attract attention. As the director of the office, the first thing Bai Ou has to do is to study the leaders in the factory and the main persons in charge of each department.
The conclusion he came to was that Li Lu should not be underestimated.
Taking 10,000 steps back, Bai Ou would never offend a promising young deputy section chief for his subordinates to breathe a sigh of relief.
However, looking at it from behind, Li Lu's green military uniform does look very eye-catching among the gray and white tunics and dark suits.
The other leaders present also found Li Lu who was talking to Wade there, and there were a hundred questions in their minds, if it wasn't for the bad way to make a fool of himself in front of foreign friends, many leaders would have gone up to question Li Lu a long time ago.
Li Lu could feel a lot of straightforward eyes falling on him, but he made up his mind to continue to impersonate the identity of the translator with a cheeky face. He had already seen that there were many problems in the communication between the two sides, which would affect the progress of the project.
After Pei Lei's speech, he walked down, nodded to Li Lu, and returned to his place and sat down. Niu Jun also hurriedly came down, sat down next to Pei Lei, and asked in a low voice, "Pei Gong, since your factory has such a powerful English expert, why do you still ask for help from the Lugang Municipal Government?" That Section Chief Li has a very high level of English. β
"To be honest, I didn't know that Xiao Li knew English before this, and I knew that he was proficient in Russian." Pei Lei shook his head helplessly and said.
Niu Jun's eyes widened, and his already big eyes were even bigger, and he said, "He still knows Russian?" It's amazing. I don't know which school I graduated from. β
Pei Lei smiled, "I don't know about this, but he is a combat hero who came down from the battlefield, and he is very powerful in battle." β
The leader who presided over the meeting said a few words, then announced the adjournment of the meeting, and instructed the factory office to do a good job in the reception work, first arrange for the people of Chrysler Defense Company to eat and rest, and then continue the discussion meeting in the afternoon.
Li Lu said a few words to Wade, then got up and left, and quickly returned to his post, and dozens of people left the conference room one after another.
Several factory leaders and Pei Lei cooperated with Wade to walk towards the door, Niu Jun followed step by step as a translator, and a translator from the foreign affairs department also acted as a translator for the factory leaders on one side.
Wade saw Li Lu standing by the door, quickened his pace, stretched out his hand from afar, held Li Lu's hand, and said, "Lu, the communication with you is very pleasant, it makes me feel like I have returned to Texas." Obviously, I'm more efficient with you. β
He didn't know Li Lu's position, and thought that Li Lu could speak on behalf of Guangming Factory.
The factory leader looked at the translator in confusion and asked, "What did he say?" β
The interpreter from the foreign affairs department lifted his glasses and said, "Mr. Wade said that he had a very pleasant communication with the gentleman named Lu, and he felt like home, and he showed that the communication with Mr. Lu would be more efficient." β
"What does this mean? This ...... "The factory leaders looked at each other.
Pei Lei took the opportunity to say, "I think it's better to let Xiao Li join the project team as a translator." There were many jerky words just now that Xiao Li explained, and his joining was a great help to the project team. β
"This Li Lu, when did he learn English, he is really a hidden young man." The factory leader said with a smile.
Chief Engineer Zhan Huaming, who had been silent, suddenly spoke, "That kid is more professional than many people, I think, let him be in charge of the translation work, and be an assistant to Wade, so that we can grasp the thoughts and states of mind of foreign parties in a timely and accurate manner." β
The chief engineer spoke, and naturally no one dared to object.
Pointing at Pei Lei, Zhan Huaming said, "Xiao Pei, you are the representative of our project team, you are specifically responsible for this matter." β
"Yes, Mr. Zhan." Pei Lei hurriedly agreed.
Pei Lei walked over and interrupted the conversation between Li Lu and Wade with a smile, and said to Li Lu, "Xiao Li, the factory has decided to appoint you as the leader of the translation team of the project team, mainly responsible for the contact and communication with Mr. Wade. Let's go, accompany Mr. Wade to the dining hall for dinner. β
After saying that, he smiled and nodded to Wade.
Li Lu translated under Wade's expectant gaze and said, "My boss has ordered me to be mainly responsible for contacting and communicating with you, Mr. Wade, happy cooperation." β
Wade happily shook hands with Li Lu, "Very pleasant." β
Wade was very happy to meet a young Chinese man with a familiar accent and a young man who was very familiar with related technology. At least for the rest of the day, he won't have to worry about the language barrier.
Li Lu's temporary addition made Niu Jun's role a little embarrassing, but she was relieved. Niu Jun didn't think that she was being neglected, she simply thought that after someone more capable took her place, she let the work be done better, so she was relieved.
Of course, her task is not over, and the communication between the rest of the project team and the American team is also inseparable from the translation.
Li Lu pointed at Zhao Xu and said, "Xiao Zhao, you go and tell Zhang Weiwei that he is temporarily in charge of the security section when I am away." β
"Yes, boss, don't worry!" Zhao Xu agreed, and left with people as if flying.
Li Lu followed dozens of people from the project team to the cadre restaurant in the canteen. Half of his mind was on Niu Jun, his six-year-old fiancΓ©e to be exact. Seeing a vacancy, Li Lu walked over and asked Niu Jun in a low voice, "Teacher Niu, which class are you the head teacher of the first elementary school?" β
"One by one." Niu Jun smiled politely and replied.
In the eyes of others. Or in Niu Jun's eyes, Li Lu was talking to him, casually finding a topic to chat with.
Li Lu said with a smile, "I have a colleague's nephew who is in the first class. β
"Yes, what's the child's name?" Niu Jun asked.
"I don't know, hehe." Li Lu was a little embarrassed.
The conversation was dry.
Just as he didn't know how to continue the topic, Niu Jun took the initiative to ask a question and said, "Section Chief Li, can you help me interpret the few words mentioned by Mr. Wade." What is a 51x body tube? β
Li Lu perked up and said, "No problem, no problem." The length of the barrel refers to the length of the barrel of the gun, and when expressing the length of the barrel, it is usually not directly said in terms of quantity, but according to the caliber of the gun. For example, the 51 times body barrel means that the length of the barrel is 51 times the caliber. If it is a 105 mm caliber gun, then 51 times the barrel of the gun means that the barrel length of the gun is 105 mm multiplied by 51, and the resulting data is the barrel length. β
Niu Jun suddenly realized, "So that's the case, it's really like a mountain." I understand what a few words mean on their own, but I always feel wrong when I put them in sentences. β
"Hehe, I happen to be familiar with military equipment, let's learn together."
The two chatted while walking, Pei Lei and Wade wanted to talk, leaned over to this side, and the four of them chatted naturally, Li Lu took care of chatting with Wade while translating for Pei Lei at the same time, and did not forget to bring Niu Jun in English, everyone took care of it very well.
This made Niu Jun feel very surprised, this is not just as simple as knowing English, I am afraid it is difficult to do it so naturally without decades of attainment, the key is that most of this nature comes from real life experience.
Could it be that Li Lu has the experience of studying abroad?
