Chapter 389: Opening a vernacular language and complementing Lao Zang

The same is true for the final vowel, and the same is true for tone. Cantonese has 9 tones. Pay attention to which two tones in Mandarin are equal to those in Cantonese. These are techniques.

In fact, there are three things to say: First, persevere and spend a certain amount of time studying every day; Second, take the initiative to talk to others, don’t just wait for others to tell you; Third, don’t ignore it because you are afraid of making mistakes or being laughed at. As the saying goes, you will learn more and more things. Remember, be bold, careful, thick-skinned, listen more and speak more and practice your ears.

Hard work pays off. After two months, I will linger on the word as long as I get the chance. When I first started the regular meeting, I could only understand what they were saying by guessing. Gradually, I could understand a few words, and then I could understand a few simple words. After a while, I could understand a large part of the content, but I didn't say it yet.

But I worked very hard, just jumping out one word at a time, trying to speak some simple but not very standard vernacular. Although it is very ordinary and very ordinary, I can be sure that my colleagues can still understand it. Of course, sometimes they don’t understand it, but often at this time, they will frown and say that they don’t understand it, or ask me back, that’s the best opportunity, what opportunity? A good opportunity to learn. Generally, I will repeat it several times according to their pronunciation until they nodded and understood it, which is OK, which means that what I said is correct and close to the standard. It’s very good. Remember, follow this in the future.

What I should thank most for in the past two months is the great encouragement given to me by all my colleagues. When they talk to me, they always slow down their speech, giving me the opportunity to think about pronunciation, listen to pronunciation clearly, and correct my mistakes at any time. They still pay great attention to cultivating my sense of language and context, so that I have no pressure. Even if I say something wrong, I will get encouragement and expectation from them, without the slightest dissatisfaction and contempt. It can be said that without their patience, I would not have made such great progress so quickly.

Especially when Daniel and Dave and other Hong Kong colleagues were amazed at me when they saw that I had made such great progress in such a short period of time, they all cast a look of praise and appreciation at me. In particular, Daniel, he is definitely a good supervisor who is willing to help others, a good brother and a good colleague. He always tires about it, listens carefully to me and speaks the unstandard Cantonese dialect, and then corrects me word by word, corrects me, and corrects me. He will not leave until what I said makes him satisfied. How can I not be satisfied with such teachings as both teachers and friends? How can I not be grateful to him?

There is also Josphen, this is even more cheerful and happy girl. Every time she sees me, she always smiles. Arthur, do you know how to say this word? By the way, by the way, there is a difference between these two words. Listen to me, this is what it looks like.

However, in the company, the one who has the most strong relationship with me is naturally Lao Zang. I think you must have guessed it, because we can meet in the ten yuan store, and we meet again by chance at Sixiang Company. This kind of fate is of course worth cherishing. Moreover, Lao Zang is active by nature, speaks funny, and is older than all of us. In addition, he has rich social experience, extensive knowledge and carefreeness. He is especially good at being with girls, and the charm of Lao Zang is revealed.

To be honest, our cucumbers have learned a lot from him, so he soon became the elder brother of my colleagues and me. Pistachio. Whenever Lao Zang is there, everyone will be surrounded by him with a smile and listen to him bragging. What does it mean? It's bragging, hahaha, although we all know that he is bragging, there are fakes and reals here. If a person hasn't experienced these, it must have been made up. The most important thing is that when everyone is with him, the atmosphere is particularly relaxed, and when working together, they feel very smooth and comfortable.

However, Lao Zang has two shortcomings. One is that his English is not very good. He became a soldier after graduating from high school and made contributions in the army. After demobilization, he was recommended and was admitted to Huainan Normal College. He went to college for two years. However, after all, he had been away from the school for two years and forgot many things. It is already very good to be able to graduate normally. It is okay to treat ordinary emails. However, a little deeper and detailed documents, such as colleagues in Taiwan, may be to save trouble, or they may think that colleagues in mainland China can understand them, so generally, they will block the email address of the guests slightly and forward them directly to us.

Lao Zang seemed a little stretched out of these long and large information. Most of the time he was not able to understand it and often felt very difficult. But he always asked others, wouldn't he reveal his secrets? So his only choice was to come to me and ask me to translate it for him. Sometimes when I was on a business trip, he would call me. However, although he was disturbed frequently, I was still happy to help with this. This not only helped him, but also allowed me to open another window - hair accessories products through these information.

However, this kind of help is not unilateral, but mutual. Lao Zang also taught me a lot of things, such as his understanding of products, communication with factories, and control of price negotiations, etc., are almost about to enter the realm. In addition, he has no reservations about me, so my progress has been very fast, which has benefited a lot from my future career.

His second weakness is that he likes to fly around when he speaks angry. When it comes to excitement, it is like a little rain. If you are close, you will suffer. And you can't avoid it. As long as you dislike it a little, Lao Zang will catch you and say with a smile, "Little brother, what's wrong, I still dislike you, Brother Zang, I will not talk about it anymore in the future."

Although I spent nearly a month’s salary a while ago, my wallet was still bulging and not greatly affected. I was just a little distressed.

Another weekend, Zitong came over. This time she came to me a letter from home. In the letter, my father said that my mother asked people from the neighboring village to send a message. It was cold and she would be back soon!

Whenever I think of my mother going to Qingdao to pick up rags, my heart ached faintly. I don’t feel embarrassed, but I feel that as a son of man, I went to college and worked for more than a year, my mother, who is nearly 50 years old, still has to go to another place to make a living. I feel ashamed!
