I Have a Seaside Five-star Hotel
Chapter 619 The Master of Simultaneous Interpretation
The distance from gate 3 to the parking lot is close or short.
At first, the boss of Yuxu Palace thought that Chen Menggang would simply introduce the two people and act as a guide.
But later,
When Chen Menggang was quite fluent in translating sentence by sentence for two people,
And even after being able to accurately recite a lot of special vocabulary that belongs to the celestial phenomena such as "Gou Chen Yi\
,"The boss of Yuxu Palace suddenly realized,
The person in front of me is not an ordinary hotel driver who understands a small language.
He is definitely an expert in Baihua Mandarin!
“The master of simultaneous interpretation?!
! "
The boss of Yuxu Palace watched Chen Mengang enthusiastically open the car door for Sedwick and himself, and an unbelievable thought popped into his mind.
but,
No matter how powerful a simultaneous interpreter is, there is no guarantee that he can still act as a real-time interpreter while driving.
When the Benrali gold stretch limousine drove towards Airport Road,
Chen Mengang once again switched to the role of "nervous driver", carefully stepped on the accelerator, and drove on the road in an orderly manner.
At this time, the boss of Yuxu Palace finally successfully switched to the "lingua franca" mode and started communicating with Sedwick.
In fact, the content of the exchange is very simple.
In addition to expressing my admiration for Sedwick, my admiration for his academic achievements, and my great honor for him to participate in this academic exchange seminar,
The most talked about thing between the two parties was the medieval star chart at the Lion Castle Hotel underground station.
But the boss of Yuxu Palace was still very keen to catch it.
When he revealed Sedwick's identity in Common Language with admiration,
Chen Mengang, who was concentrating on driving, raised his eyebrows and subconsciously glanced at the handsome old professor sitting in the back seat through the rearview mirror.
His eyes were full of respect and shock.
"Well, he is also a master of Common Language." The boss of Yuxu Palace re-judged in his mind.
Maybe it’s because of successful language communication, or maybe it’s because I went abroad to a city with a good environment and scenery, or maybe it’s because the longed-for medieval astrology map is just ahead.
Or maybe it was because I rode in a Bentrali gold stretch limousine.
In short, Professor Tian is in a good mood!
The whole way, Sedwick looked around the car window like a child, and from time to time he would ask questions related to the city.
Although the boss of Yuxu Palace often comes to Zaomen for business trips,
But every time he comes to Zaomen, he is either received by Long Dingpan, or at the hotel and Zaomen Tianli Research Institute.
I really don’t have much understanding of the city’s customs and famous snacks.
On the contrary, Chen Mengang, who was driving, successfully took over the topic and communicated with Sedwick fluently in Baihua Mandarin.
Since there is no need to act as a real-time translator between Sedwick and the boss of Yuxu Palace, Chen Mengang can temporarily not have to keep his brain and energy in a highly concentrated state.
The beautiful and elegant Baihua Mandarin poured out of his mouth as if he were a drama actor, as effortlessly as if he were his mother tongue.
The good thing is: Sedwick was very excited and asked about this and that, and he was in a good mood.
The bad thing is: the boss of Yuxu Palace can't understand a word, but he still pretends to listen with a smile, which makes him feel a little depressed.
at the same time,
An inexplicable doubt slowly rose from the bottom of his heart:
Is it the distortion of morality or the loss of human nature that makes a great simultaneous interpreter willing to give up his previous job and come to the hotel to work as a welcome bus driver? !
!
The annual salary of a great simultaneous interpreter is at least dozens of dollars higher.
If according to what Chen Menggang said, the current salary is a little higher than the previous salary,
He really couldn't understand that there could be a hotel that could pay an annual salary of hundreds of thousands to hire a courtesy car driver.
crazy
Absolutely crazy!
The owner of the Lion Castle Hotel who placed a medieval starry sky map on the subway ceiling and admired the stars boldly and arrogantly from God’s perspective is definitely a lunatic!
Due to the completion of the joint project of Lion Castle Hotel and Magic Century Theme Park, the two amusement parks are open at the same time.
Butter Road, which was already crowded with tourists, was even more crowded at this time.
Even though there are subways transporting tourists one by one, the traffic and densely packed vehicles along the way are enough to be daunting.
Not to mention it was Chen Mengang who drove a luxury car for the first time.
When the car was about to turn onto Butter Road, Chen Mengang briefly talked about the congestion and unsmooth traffic conditions ahead.
and asked if he could drive the car to a small town,
His colleagues led the boss of Yuxu Palace and Sedwick into the hotel through the hidden door of Squirrel Secondhand Bookstore.
The boss of Yuxu Palace nodded.
To be honest, although he was just a guest using the welcome car, he didn't want the nervous driver to accidentally scratch or collide with other cars due to the congestion.
After getting the consent of the boss of Yuxu Palace, Chen Mengang breathed a sigh of relief, then turned the steering wheel and drove towards the town.
The handsome Professor Tianlao doesn't know the road, and he doesn't care where the car goes.
As there are more and more pedestrians, buildings and vehicles on the road,
The old professor's blue eyes were instantly attracted by the food stalls on both sides of the market.
While passing by a leek box stall,
The rich aroma of leeks, wrapped in the deep-fried aroma, drifted into Sedwick's nose through the slightly opened car window.
"what is that?"
"fried leek dumpling."
Chen Mengang glanced at the small stall next to him and naturally said the name of the dish in Baihua Mandarin.
"This smell is very special, strange and attractive." The old professor smelled the smell in the air and said seriously.
"It is indeed unique. After all, this is a delicacy that is said to be able to defeat any perfume," Chen Mengang said with a smile.
The two of them were like a group of Baihua country fellows on a group trip, communicating with each other without any obstacles.
Listening to the extremely harmonious exchange between Chen Mengang and Sedwick, the boss of Yuxu Palace could not sit still.
"what are you guys saying?"
The boss of Yuxu Palace asked.
"This old man wants to eat the leek box. Let me tell him how the leek box is made and where it comes from." Chen Mengang said while driving.
"Can you cook?" The boss of Yuxu Palace looked shocked.
"I won't." Chen Mengang smiled awkwardly.
"When I used to receive foreign guests, they didn't know what every dish on the table was, so I had to introduce the dishes to them one by one at the wine table. The more I introduced them, the more they would know how each dish was made."
What a great guy, he can also skillfully explain how to make each dish.
The boss of Yuxu Palace fell silent.
Originally, he was somewhat confident in his lingua franca and thought he was pretty good at language communication.
But apart from writing essays and daily communication, he doesn’t have the ability to introduce his country’s cuisine in common language.
If it weren't for the fact that he was considered a figure in the field of Tianxue in China, he wouldn't want to talk to the other party.
Because the alley is very narrow and there are many shops on both sides,
So the Benrali gold stretch limousine stopped at the entrance of the alley, and several people got out of the car together.
Maybe it's because it's close to the hotel and there are other excellent drivers,
Or maybe it's because Chen Menggang's main task is to receive Sedwick.
When the three people got off the car, a hotel employee who had been waiting at the entrance of the alley came up, took the Bentrali gold stretch limousine from Chen Mengang's hands, and was responsible for parking the car back to the hotel.
Chen Mengang was left to continue his work as a translator.
Professor Tianlao, who was confused, stood at the entrance of the alley.
He looked at the Benrali gold stretch limousine that had taken away his luggage, and then looked at the simple and rustic civilian town in front of him.
There was doubt in his blue eyes.
"Is this meeting held in the small house here?"
"No, this is another way to the hotel. Please follow me."
Chen Mengang said, leading the two people towards Squirrel Secondhand Bookstore.
Perhaps he realizes that among three people, only two at most can master Baihua Mandarin and Chinese at the same time.
Sedwick also automatically switches the language to "Lingua."
In this way, it can be ensured that three people can communicate on the same frequency.
Although the town does not belong to the hotel's area,
But after all, the hidden door of Squirrel Secondhand Bookstore is open here.
In order to take care of tourists' psychological expectations and travel mood as much as possible, Chen Jianhai still spent a large amount of money to re-pave the original bumpy cement roads in the town into thick and smooth bluestone brick roads.
Along the way, Sedwick has always had the most basic doubts about the unfamiliar environment.
"Here we are."
Chen Menggang opened the door of the small Squirrel Second-hand Bookstore.
The handsome Professor Tianlao looked at the two pots of green radish placed in front of the bookstore and murmured in disbelief:
"Is this a joke?"
Not only him, but also the boss of Yuxu Palace was confused.
Although he has stayed at the Lion Castle Hotel, he always takes a boat from the Lion Castle Hotel subway station.
This was the first time he walked through this hidden door.
However, Chen Menggang didn't give them a chance to wonder.
open the door,
Chen Mengang made a handover with the reception staff in the bookstore. After verifying the identities of the three people, the bookstore staff pressed the switch.
The wall door slowly opened,
Against the background of the huge castle, a purple vine-like corridor appears behind the gate like a fairy tale. White cobblestones are laid out on the golden lawn in autumn. Parked is a beautiful black two-wheeled double open carriage.
Beside the carriage, the carriage employee wearing a tuxedo uniform glanced at Chen Menggang, and then at Sedwick, who was standing in the middle.
Then, he spoke in proficient and pure common language:
"Hello sir, welcome to Lion Lake Castle Resort Hotel."
Since the carriage could only carry two people, Chen Mengang put the boss of Yuxu Palace and Sedwick on the carriage and walked back to the hotel by himself.
Maybe it’s because the visual comparison before and after is so different from what I expected.
Professor Tianlao seemed to be in a state of shock at this time, and it was difficult to connect the small town just now with the Castle Hotel in front of him.
But fortunately, I am older and have seen all kinds of ups and downs.
Moreover, the castle stuff was originally transmitted from their territory.
Soon, Professor Tianlao recovered from the shock and took out his mobile phone, seemingly contacting his old friend.
And at this time,
The boss of Yuxu Palace’s phone also rang.
Looking at the name of the sender, the boss of Yuxu Palace's scalp almost exploded.
Taking a deep breath, the boss of Yuxu Palace answered the phone as if nothing was wrong and said:
"Senior Brother"
"I'm here. Have you arrived at the hotel in Zaomen where I arrived last night?"
"Okay, okay, see you later."
After hanging up the phone, the boss of Yuxu Palace put down the phone miserably, with a look of tears on his face.
As the welcome cars of Lion Castle Hotel departed and returned from the airport and train station one after another.
Participants of the Xihetian Academic Symposium also arrived at the hotel one by one.
Although they have different nationalities, after all, many of them have met before in various forums and exchange meetings, and some of them are very good personal friends.
After meeting in the hotel, these people got together happily and relieved a lot of the burden on Xihe Tiantuan's reception work.
Although the number of welcome cars at the Lion Castle Hotel is pretty good,
But after all, there were too many people attending the meeting this time, and the time was relatively concentrated.
There is no way,
After soliciting the opinions of the organizer, the hotel made arrangements based on the age and travel length of the guests.
For some short-distance guests or guests who can arrive by domestic high-speed rail, let them arrive on their own.
For guests who do not speak the language, are very old, or are traveling on international flights, we will try our best to arrange welcome cars for pick-up and drop-off.
In short, on the premise of ensuring the normal operation of the hotel, try to do every service job properly.
The boss of Yuxu Palace sent Sedwick to the hotel, and after a quick meeting with Long Dingpan, he took the next welcome car to the airport to greet another old professor from the Rusty Butterfly Kingdom.
This time the driver was not Chen Menggang, but a man who was quite silent and unwilling to speak.
The boss of Yuxu Palace was so silent that he wondered whether the driver had social phobia.
No matter what the boss of Yuxu Palace asked him, he would just answer it with "um", "yes", "no", "soon" and so on.
In addition to ensuring necessary communication politeness, you can basically say nothing without speaking.
If you can say one word, you will never say the second word.
Although there is nothing wrong with the service attitude and enthusiasm, it is definitely not comfortable.
but,
After receiving foreign guests,
The driver, who was silent and unwilling to speak, instantly turned on social cow mode.
Not only did he communicate with the other party in fluent and authentic Rusty Butterfly Country throughout the whole process, but he also acted as a special Zaomen tour guide on the way, giving this old professor from a foreign country a comprehensive introduction.
Completely throwing aside the boss of Yuxu Palace who accompanied the reception.
It seemed that the old professor was the only one he wanted to serve, and the boss of Yuxu Palace was just a dispensable companion.
"Well, capable people usually have a bit of personality."
The boss of Yuxu Palace comforted himself like this.
