Yang Ming, a counselor in the Graduate Office, informed Ma Yinuo that after layers of selection, she was finally qualified to participate in the first negotiation course, and asked her to sign a confidentiality pledge at the Graduate Office tomorrow.

This negotiation course is extraordinary, and the coaching team is made up of two leaders in the international negotiation world, and the squad is exceptionally strong.

One of the instructors was Professor Chung Shou-yiu, a senior negotiator at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, who not only coached diplomats in negotiation skills, but also trained national leaders in negotiations. The projects that are now being brought are confidential, and are said to be related to the overall layout of Chinese multinationals to overcome foreign trade barriers.

The ancient emperors had Yao, and they all said that the word "Yao" could not be used casually in the name, because ordinary people could not suppress it. But this professor Shouyao has practiced the meaning of his name, guarding China with the diplomatic corps, and revitalizing China together with national enterprises.

Once, Ma Yinuo saw a news report, Professor Zhong Shouyao said in an interview: "The key reason why we have won at the international negotiating table again and again is not how superb our negotiation skills are, but that behind us is a strong motherland." Since ancient times, weak countries have no diplomacy, but now, we have not only improved our voice in the field of diplomacy, but also have more opportunities to show our cultural heritage to the world and spread China's voice. ”

After reading that interview, Ma Yinuo became interested in Professor Chung's research field, and she went to the library to find all Professor Chung's works and began to study them, and she became more and more admired for such a knowledgeable and humble scholar. Unfortunately, Professor Zhong was a visiting professor at Jason's university, and he didn't usually offer regular courses, so Ma Yinuo could only hope that one day he would come to the school to give a lecture.

Another mentor was David from the United States. Professor Mats, quite legendary.

A former magna laude graduate of Harvard University, Professor Mats is now a tenured professor at S University, one of the top 10 universities in the United States, where he directs the Dispute Mediation Research Program.

As a Special Adviser to the United Nations Security Council, Professor Mats is recognized as one of the world's leading experts in the field of dispute resolution, and has averted many international armed conflicts thanks to his mediation. Professor Matz has made a tremendous contribution to world peace.

This time, the two top professors were able to make the trip and the course was able to settle in Garson University, which has to be said to be facilitated by the dean of the Law School of Garson University with his strong influence.

Not only at Garson University, but also in the whole country, it is the first time that such a practical negotiation teaching pilot has been offered. It took more than half a year from the submission of Professor Zhong's syllabus to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs for approval, to the negotiation and signing of the contract between Garson University and S University, and then to the finalization of the itinerary of the two professors.

Students participating in the course are required to receive confidentiality education, sign a confidentiality pledge, and ensure that the information on international cases involved in the course is kept strictly confidential.

Such a course is rare in ten years, so in June this year, as soon as he learned that the Law School of Garson University was going to invite these two masters to open the first negotiation course, Ma Yinuo was so happy that he almost jumped up and screamed, and immediately signed up.

With such scarce educational resources and a small-class interactive teaching, a class of 12 people, it is natural that the students must be strictly screened.

The Law School of Garson University is also a group of elites and talents, and this round of selection is the best of the best. Professional achievements, breadth of knowledge, comprehension ability, and expression ability should all be examined and compared.

The most basic test item is that the English language ability must be good.

Not only because the students in the class should be able to communicate smoothly with David. Professor Mats exchanges; There is a more important deep-seated reason, the law school is looking forward to cultivating negotiation elites who can fight for more interests for the country and the nation to a certain extent through this professional negotiation course, and expects that when they enter all walks of life, they can convey the voice of China like Professor Zhong Shouyao.

Professionals who can achieve these expectations must have excellent foreign language skills.

Originally, before going to graduate school, Ma Yinuo's English was not good enough, communication was not good, and the exam was barely acceptable. It was precisely because of this delayed English that she missed the graduate school, and she regretted saying goodbye to the public fund in the process of taking the postgraduate examination. is as stubborn as her, thinking that she has been entangled with English for more than ten years, how can she just admit defeat and lose?

After grad school, she changed the way she studied to prepare for exams, and really used passion and love to learn English by any means.

Three days a week, in the dormitory, only Ma Yinuo got up from his bed early in the morning to go to English class. Without exception, the other students applied for English exemption, took a waiver exam that was much easier than postgraduate English, and directly took the credit of graduate English, and no longer had to suffer from English classes. She is the only graduate student in the entire law school to do such drudgery, rain or shine.

Every night, she had to fall asleep listening to the English news, and she couldn't move.

Every weekend, she forced herself to memorize two texts on New Concept English. In the library, some people saw her learning English with such old textbooks, and her eyes slightly revealed disdain, and she felt that it didn't matter.

Perseverance always pays off unexpectedly.

One day, she and Feng Jianzhao went for a walk in the square in the center of the city, and saw a group of people surrounding a foreigner who was fiddling with an oversized alien kite, and Ma Yinuo was also curious to see the strangely shaped kite.

"In my hometown, I have many of these kites, some of which are bigger than this. Seeing them play kites made me feel a little homesick. The foreigner said while tinkering with the kite, "This kite is not broken, but the line hook is in the wrong position, as long as you connect here to here, you can fly." ”

A person standing next to Ma Yinuo and Feng Jianzhao was chatting with the people around him, and when he saw that they were new to the circle, he turned his head and said to them again: "This foreigner has been puffing on my kite for a long time, it seems that he has fallen in love with my kite, maybe he wants to buy it, I can't sell it to him!" ”

Ma Yinuo said: "No, he has a lot of kites himself, he is helping you to repair." ”

The owner of the kite said, "Do you know English?" Then you help me translate and translate, he has been babbling with my kite for a long time, and I don't understand it! ”

Ma Yinuo was stunned at the time, and she asked Feng Jianzhao: "Just now, this foreigner, isn't it Chinese?!" ”

On that day, Ma Yinuo found that his English kung fu had changed from quantitative to qualitative, as if he had been opened up to the second pulse of Ren Du and reborn, and he was even more out of control when he learned it again, like his mother tongue.

Later, she went to take the IELTS test, did not apply for any pre-test skills class, and directly scored a good score of 7.5.

Wei Yuanyuan saw the rapid improvement in the language ability of his bedmate, beat his chest and said: "I just said, I applied for any English exemption, and I will get up in the morning to go to English class with you!" ”

Jiening said a divine sword: "Then you can't raise such a white and fat child!" ”

With his unrivalled English ability, his outstanding performance in teaching market regulation law, and the rigorous logic embodied in his professional course papers, Ma Yinuo earned himself the entrance ticket to this first negotiation course, and he got his wish.

After receiving the notification, Ma Yinuo habitually wanted to share the good news with Feng Jianzhao, but the moment she grabbed her mobile phone, she realized that it was wrong, and an unbearable sense of emptiness hit her.
