Chapter 364 (1/2)
The night light is on the stage. He took the lead in holding out his hand to Leon and said, ”Hello, I'm luminous.”
Luminous is in Chinese.
Leon was a little surprised. He could understand and speak Chinese. However, on this occasion, people from many countries all over the world gathered. Although there is no rule that English must be spoken, English is an international common language. Speaking English on this occasion is a common rule.
The audience at the bottom didn't understand what he said. Leon didn't say much. He shook hands with luminous politely with a smile and said in English, ”welcome, night.”
In fact, luminous was just sober and a little confused. When he said hello to Leon, he naturally jumped out of Chinese. Otherwise, he was ready to communicate in English.
The words have been spoken out and can't be taken back.
On the contrary, it's night light. After a sentence of Chinese pops up, I think of the English speech in my mind. I feel a little irritable for no reason. Why do you let me adapt to your English when I'm Chinese?
After this idea flashed out in the night light mind, how also can't go away.
The emcee brought up luminous's letter of appointment, seals and medals.
After signing the letter of appointment and following the procedures of honoring and seal granting, Leon asked luminous to deliver a speech.
Luminous took the microphone, facing the reporters and the audience, with a smile on his face, but he made up his mind.
Luminous: ”Hello everyone, I'm luminous.”
As soon as I opened my mouth, the audience and reporters were stunned.
How to speak Chinese?
Although there is no regulation, subconsciously, everyone thinks that the international lingua franca should be spoken in this kind of occasion.
Liu Cheng and Tang Tao's eyes are also a little strange. Before Ming Ming told him that he wanted to speak English, how could this mouth jump out of Chinese?
However, people just feel a little surprised. In fact, it doesn't matter what language they speak. Maybe they don't speak English. Some people speculate.
Luminous ignored what they thought and said, ”it's a great honor to be appointed as the Global Environmental Protection Ambassador today. The environmental protection issue is that the whole world needs to work together... I will... Wish the world... Thank you.”
He didn't adjust his speech by himself. He translated it into Chinese according to the content on the card Tang Tao gave him.
At the end of the speech, a burst of polite applause came to mind.
Next, the reporter and the audience can ask a simple question about luminous.
A group of reporters raised their hands, and many guests also joined the crowd and raised their hands high.
Ryan looked at the crowd and saw that Wilson, who was on the stage at the beginning, also raised his hand, so he said, ”the first question is for Wilson, who is also an Environmental Protection Ambassador.”
A staff member sent Wilson a microphone.
Wilson said in pure English, ”Mr. night, Hello, I'm Wilson. You just spoke Chinese in your speech. I want to ask you whether you can't speak English or don't speak English on purpose?”
This question was not only puzzled by Wilson, but also by many people present. Wilson took the lead in asking it.
Before the light of night answered, Wilson continued, ”can you understand me when I speak English? Do you need a translator? ”
This sentence caused many guests and reporters to laugh.
Tang Tao's brows wrinkled. It's nothing to speak Chinese in luminous speech. Although it's rare to speak mother tongue on such an international occasion, it's not uncommon and there's nothing to make a fuss about.
However, with Wilson's casual but practical and sharp problem, Tang Tao worries that luminous will say something wrong.
