Chapter 147: No Time to Waste

Lin Yun said that she wanted to learn a foreign language, but she didn't just talk about it, as soon as she got off class, she went to the New World Foreign Language School with Lin Yao and Jian Wen with great interest.

In the car, Lin Yun asked the same question as Lin Yao, "Xiao Jian speaks English so well, why do you still want to learn English?" ”

You must know that Jian Wen once said, "That foreigner's English is poor." "It's deafening and unforgettable.

Who knew that after only a few months, she went to a foreign language school to learn English, which is not too ...... Is it funny?

If it were an ordinary person, it is estimated that she would have been red-faced and embarrassed by this time, but Jian Wen has never been an ordinary person, she just explained lightly: "I studied English in school, and the courses include classical English, English language and literature...... In addition, I have studied some English classics and poems, but the business English I use in my work is different from what I have learned. ”

Lin Yun nodded clearly, she also knew that the English major was learning these.

As a customer of foreign trade, how can anyone understand English language and literature, famous books, and poetry...... Sure enough, the foreigner's English level is too poor, but he still thinks it's funny, what should I do?

The corners of Lin Yun's lips unconsciously raised, "So, it's common for people like me to come out to learn foreign languages?" ”

Lin Yao and Jian Wen almost said in unison, "Of course! ”

All three people in the car laughed at the same time.

Jian Wen looked at Lin Yao and couldn't help but ask the question she had always wanted to ask, "You can write emails to foreigners in Spanish after only a few classes?" ”

Lin Yao sighed lightly, "Of course not, so I need to write according to the book." ”

Jian Wen couldn't believe her ears, "You just write to the customer according to the sentences in the book?" ”

Isn't that child's play?

Can you make your point clear?

The point is, can foreigners understand?

"yes!" Lin Yao smiled a little embarrassedly, "Then the English level of the Cuban customer is about the same as my Spanish level, besides, there is translation software on the Internet, which can barely communicate." ”

Jian Wen disagreed, if this was all right, what else did she learn business English? Just write it......

Could it be that Lin Yao did the same in the first place?

She asked again: "So, your communication with customers is usually like this, even guessing?" ”

"So to speak." Lin Yao thought for a while and replied seriously: "Just like you said, these customers who do foreign trade come from all over the world, and most of them are from non-English speaking countries, and their English proficiency is not very good.

Their emails are often littered with grammatical errors, misspellings, miswording, ...... Isn't it just a matter of guessing for me?

By the same token, if I'm writing too well, I mean, even if the grammar is very standardized, if you use some high-end, esoteric words, they won't be able to understand it. So you don't need to write well, it's enough to be concise and clear.

There are also customers with good English, and customers from European and American countries generally have good English proficiency, so don't you have it. ”

After Jian Wen heard this, she looked thoughtful.

What Lin Yao said is basically true, most of Lingyun Industrial's customers come from Asia, Africa and Latin America, and there are very few customers in Europe and the United States.

Lin Yun didn't think about it so much at the beginning, and it was according to Lin Yao's suggestion that those European and American customers were assigned to Jian Wen.

She nodded, "According to what you say, we just need to boldly go up and talk to others, and we don't have to care about grammar or non-grammar and accent at all?" ”

Lin Yao had a sly smile on her face, "When communicating with people who are not good at English, you don't need to think about grammar, as for the accent, everyone has an accent anyway, and maybe you can sympathize with each other." But it's not strange to have a lot of courtesy, just say a few more polite words, and everyone can communicate happily! ”

"Hahaha...... Lin Yun couldn't help but laugh, "When you say that, I suddenly have confidence in learning English!" ”

Lin Yun had long wanted to learn English, and at first she wanted Qin Yi to teach her, but Qin Yi's comments on her were "pronunciation horror" and "rotten wood cannot be carved"......

In short, every time it will break up.

It's not like she didn't want to go outside to learn English, but she was in her thirties and still sat with a group of students in class, which felt quite embarrassing.

So, it's just thinking about it all the time.

Lin Yun finally realized that she and Qin Yi had both hit a dead end before, and they didn't understand why she was learning English.

She didn't learn English to get exams, let alone get a job with her fluent oral skills.

Her requirements are very low, as long as she can deal with them.

According to Lin Yao, such a goal is clearly easy to achieve.

Lin Yun has a lot of ideas that she needs to wait until she can communicate in English before she can put them into action, so she has to learn English first!

Lin Yao smiled and said: "English is not difficult, not to mention that we don't take exams, if we really meet a master, we won't panic, isn't there Jian Wen." ”

Lin Yun agrees with this, "That's right! ”

This shows that she was right to recruit Jian Wen, and Lin Yun laughed.

This also shows that her position in the company is unshakable, and the corners of Jian Wen's lips are unconsciously raised.

Lin Yun joined the team of learning foreign languages in this way, she learned basic English, I don't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, her class time and Lin Yao and them were staggered.

Of course, that's a good thing for everyone.

*****

When Lin Yao returned to Chaoyang Community after learning Spanish, she subconsciously looked at the window on the fourth floor of Building 2, it was still dark, and there was obviously no one.

Qin Rongze still didn't show up during this time, and he didn't contact her, and he didn't even have any new news related to him on the Internet.

It can be seen that the matter on his side is not easy to handle, and it is very likely that it may not be handled well in the end.

Lin Yao didn't think there was anything wrong with Qin Rongze snubbing herself at such a time, she understood this as Qin Rongze's protection of her.

If they can't be together in the end, then Qin Rongze will quietly disappear into her life as if she had never appeared.

In the same way, if Qin Rongze no longer appears, then she will accept such a result calmly and will never do unnecessary entanglement.

She believed that she could do it, just like she could resolutely withdraw from Qin Wenyuan and Zhou Meilin.

The IQ test some time ago made Lin Yao re-understand herself and brought her a lot of inspiration.

When she was in Tianfeng Company, why didn't she fit in?

That's because she is different from them in the first place!

They talked about topics with relish, and she could guess what they were going to talk about next almost a second, and it was boring.

They had discussed questions with great interest, and she had known the answers from the beginning, and could not understand what was there to discuss.

And the meat jokes they are keen on are even more unbearable to her.

Qin Wenyuan, the only "clear stream" of Tianfeng Company, Lin Yao originally thought that he and himself should be the same kind, but it turned out that he was not.

Qin Wenyuan is inferior to Liu Yingjie in nature, and even Cheng Yu is better than him!

This is also the reason why she decisively let go after she found out that Qin Wenyuan stepped on two boats.

The matter of choosing between has never been a difficult thing for Lin Yao, but others don't seem to believe that she will let go of Qin Wenyuan so easily.

Shan Qing didn't believe it, Zhou Meilin didn't believe it, and even Qin Wenyuan didn't seem to believe it, otherwise he wouldn't have appeared downstairs in the Yueyang Mansion that time.

But these are no longer important, the past has become the past, and Lin Yao focuses on the future.

Lin Yao found that her work efficiency was indeed relatively high, when she was in Tianfeng Company, she could complete the workload of other people in the morning, and she could complete it in half an hour. Others "work overtime" every day, and she is very leisurely every day.

Her presence brings out the incompetence of others, which is very unpleasant.

The same is true in Lingyun Industry, where several other salesmen will be in a hurry when they encounter something, and mistakes are frequent, and she handles more than ninety percent of the company's orders alone, but she is still at ease.

But that's not a reason for her to be complacent, and she doesn't want to be a machine that handles a lot of orders.

She wants to grow and have the ability to decide her own destiny!

In Lin Yao's growth plan, the first step is to become a foreign trade salesman.

Today, she has a good foundation in English and is almost familiar with the product.

In fact, the price and accounting system of all Lingyun's products are already in her mind, even the contact information of the factory and customers. As long as the client doesn't ask too professional and detailed questions, she can handle it completely.

Is she still lacking anything?

More foreign languages, for example?

Although she has the time and ability to learn more foreign languages, more than 80% of her clients in the international trade industry can speak English, and only a small number of clients really don't speak, and these customers are often from Russia, Asia, Africa and Latin America.

Most of the Russian customers who come to China to purchase in China are Chinese-speaking or have direct state-owned partners in China.

She chose to learn Spanish precisely because it covers almost all parts of Latin America.

It is enough for her to learn at most one more French, and it is estimated that she will not be able to use other small languages after learning, so she does not have to consider it for the time being.

However, all of these are just skills as a foreign trade salesman.

What about after she became a foreign trade salesman?

Will she do international trade for the rest of her life?

Of course, this is possible, but if international trade is regarded as a long-term battle, then the foreign trade salesman says that it is only the pioneer of the company.

Even the most powerful foreign trade salesman will not always be a foreign trade salesman, five or ten years later, one day he will take a back seat, and one day he will have his own team.

That's right, a successful foreign trade salesman should lead a team in a few years, not alone!

So what should she do to prepare for the future at this time?

Lin Yao felt that there was still a lot of work to do, and there was no time to waste.
