Chapter 583: The Unreliable Mr. He
Jiang Xia: "Mr. He, stop joking!"
Principal Zhou nodded.
Yes, Lao He, don’t joke!
He was afraid that he would be the next one to be hospitalized due to a heart attack.
Just now, Mr. He said he would introduce him to an expert who is proficient in five or six foreign languages.
He thought it was a returning scholar.
In the end, that was it? Principal Zhou looked at the freshman textbook on the bicycle basket.
I am speechless!
Is this the freshman this year? Is he twenty years old?
An expert in his twenties?
Mr. He: "I'm not kidding! Xiaoxia's foreign language skills are good enough to be a university professor. I also want to ask her to be a simultaneous interpreter. What do you think of her skills?"
Jiang Xia: "Mr. He, you think too highly of me! How can I be a university professor?"
Mr. He: "Your professional level is worthy of my respect. Don't be modest! If you don't deserve it, then few people are worthy of it!"
Jiang Xia: “…”
Principal Zhou: “…”
Mr. He said to Principal Zhou, "Old Zhou, you are absolutely right to trust me! If you hire her, you can open classes for Russian, French, and German! Comrade Xiao Xia knows six languages!"
Principal Zhou could only laugh twice.
"Hey, don't disbelieve me! Xiao Xia's foreign language level is just like she grew up abroad!"
Principal Zhou: "Comrade Xiao Xia is still a freshman in our school. Isn't that inappropriate?"
Jiang Xia nodded quickly: "Yes, it's not appropriate."
Mr. He: "Old Zhou, you are being pedantic. As the saying goes, among three people, there must be a teacher! A teacher is someone who teaches, accepts students, and resolves doubts! Anyone who has the ability to teach, accepts students, and resolves doubts can be a teacher! A professor!"
Mr. He refused to give in, and Principal Zhou had no choice but to give Mr. He face and said, "I didn't expect that Xiao Xia is so young, but her foreign language skills are so high. How about this! Go to the Foreign Languages Department tomorrow to interview Professor Ji."
Then he said to Mr. He: "Mr. He, I have something else to do. I'll be busy now!"
Principal Zhou said this and ran away.
This Mr. He is too unreliable! Ask him to help recommend a Russian expert.
He recommended a freshman to himself!
Is it a game to let a freshman be a foreign language professor? If the school was not in need of Russian teachers, he would not have chosen him.
The foreign language major at Q University was restored not long ago, and now only English and Japanese are offered. This was restored in response to the reform and opening up.
However, the Foreign Languages Department only had two languages, English and Japanese, which was too few, and the country was in urgent need of translation talents, so Principal Zhou decided to offer a few more foreign language courses.
Of course, the professors were invited in advance, but one of the Russian language experts fell ill and was hospitalized two days before the start of the school year. He underwent surgery and had to rest for a semester.
The school could only find another Russian professor, but it was not easy to find one at the moment.
When Principal Zhou saw Mr. He appear outside the school gate, he felt like he had seen a savior and went forward to ask him for help.
As soon as Mr. He heard this, he agreed and said that he came to their school just to find a foreign language expert.
So Principal Zhou waited for Comrade Zhou Chenglei with great anticipation.
Mr. He said: "His foreign language skills are also good, but not as good as the expert I want to introduce. You can invite both of them."
Comrade Zhou Chenglei said, "I don't have time. I have to take care of the kids."
These words left Principal Zhou speechless.
Then he continued to wait expectantly for the expert in five languages.
Finally, a girl came...
In the eyes of Principal Zhou, freshmen in their teens and twenties are still children who have not grown up yet.
Seeing that Principal Zhou didn't believe him, Mr. He said to Jiang Xia, "Xiao Xia, remember to go for the interview tomorrow and let Mr. Zhou see your ability!"
Jiang Xia: "... Mr. He, forget it, I don't plan to become a professor."
"Let's talk about whether to be a professor or not, but I want to let Lao Zhou see that I didn't introduce you wrongly! Otherwise, he will think I am perfunctory! Besides, why don't you become a professor? Don't you work as a translator to make money? With your level, you are qualified to be a full professor, and you can earn two or three hundred yuan a month."
Jiang Xia: "My child is still young, I don't have time to teach him."
"There are only two classes for now, and there are not many courses in the university, so it won't take up much time. Besides, don't you have someone to take care of the child? Your wife takes care of the child, and you take care of the child too. How can you not live? You can give up being a professor, but you must be the leader of the Guangzhou Trade Fair! I came to you to ask you to be the leader of the Guangzhou Trade Fair and train the translators and staff going to the Guangzhou Trade Fair this time. How can we let volunteers and translators help our company win more orders and let the Guangzhou Trade Fair's transaction volume reach a new high? This matter is up to you!"
Jiang Xia: "That's even worse. The child is still young. How can I leave?"
"If you have any difficulties, the organization will help you solve them! If there is no one to take care of your child, I will find someone to help you! You two should go with me. I will arrange a house for you to live in, and you don't have to worry about anything. Okay, it's settled! Tomorrow morning at 8 o'clock, you will go to Beijing University to wait for Comrade Xiaoyan, and let her take you to train the translation team of this Guangzhou Trade Fair."
"I'm leaving first! Remember to report tomorrow. I've been waiting for you for a long time! Don't worry, I'll help you ask for leave!"
Mr. He waited for Jiang Xia at the school gate for an hour. He still had a lot of work to do, so he said this and rode away on his bike.
Jiang Xia: “…”
Zhou Chenglei came here by running. He got on his bicycle and said, "Let's go home."
Jiang Xia jumped on the bicycle: "Why are you here?"
"The child is asleep, so I came out for a run." Zhou Chenglei waited for Jiang Xia to sit down, then he pedaled the bicycle and it started moving.
Gu Heng and Gu Yue watched the bicycle go away.
Gu Yue asked her father: "Dad, the people who just talked to Jiang Xia were Mr. He and Principal Zhou, right?"
Gu Heng nodded: "Yeah."
Gu Yue became even more curious about the identities of Zhou Chenglei and Jiang Xia.
Who are these two couples?
How could he know Mr. Zhang, Mr. He, and the principal? But Mr. Zhang and Mr. He were good friends.
Gu Yue felt that she should become even better friends with Jiang Xia, and she also wanted to join the translation department in the future.
Her father wouldn't help her, she had to take all the exams on her own.
I don’t want to think about what would happen if I fail the exam?
Her father is unreliable, she can only rely on herself!
After Mr. Gu of the Gu family returned home, he went into the study with a document bag.
He opened the file bag, took out the documents inside and took a look.
After seeing Jiang Xia’s date of birth, he glanced at the column for his parents.
He sat there for a long time without moving.
An hour later he came to his senses. He stood up, walked to the bookcase, took out the book on the bottom shelf, opened it, took out the photos inside, and stared at the photos again.
It was not until there was a knock on the door that he came to his senses. He quickly stuffed the photos into a file bag, put it in the drawer, and then went to open the door.
Dong Yan smiled and said, "Are you done with your work? The meal is ready, let's go eat!"
"Okay." Gu Heng responded and walked out with his wife.
Dong Yan glanced at the desk and saw the book.
She glanced at Gu Heng.
Gu Heng looked at her: "What's wrong?"
"No, what were you busy with just now? Xiaoyue said you went back to the study as soon as you came back."
"I'm just looking at the information in the bureau."
Dong Yan pursed her lips.
