Hearing what Mr. Hu said, Xu Yiyang couldn't help but become serious.
The opponent prepared so meticulously, and my side was already very passive. However, the opponent also recruited three seniors. It seemed that they were directly on the strongest lineup. It seemed that they had a strong desire to win.
If you don't perform well here, you will not only lose face to the school, but also lose face to yourself.
Think about it, what if you become a big entrepreneur in the future, and when the TV station is reporting on you, it suddenly comes out with a video of yourself being raped by a student at the University of Hong Kong, wouldn’t it be embarrassing
It's like making a video of Li Haiyang lip-synching. Maybe it will be with you forever.
Therefore, Xu Yiyang also worked up his spirits and prepared to fight against the three full-level players on the opposite side.
Fortunately, although my level does not seem to be high, I am a second-level player. I am the kind of player who first practices to the full level in the first level, and then starts from the middle in the second level, so there is not much problem in crushing the opponent with strength.
And Xu Yiyang has an advantage, that is, he can deceive everything into a big deal.
This was the experience he taught Gu Sijia during the interview at school.
If you don’t know what to say about a certain issue, just do the opposite and talk about something larger.
After all, he is a middle-aged boss who has been a keyboard warrior for twenty years, and has the blessing of memories for more than twenty years. If he could not abuse the three children opposite him who had just reached the full level, he would feel ashamed.
At this time, Xu Yanan ran over and said to Hu Bingwen in a panic: "Mr. Hu, I heard a senior and a mainland classmate say that the three people who played at the University of Hong Kong are all members of the school's debate team. They are very eloquent, and the University of Hong Kong is like this We have done many 'exchanges'. As long as there are foreign schools coming to exchange, they will definitely have such an exchange. The format basically doesn't change much. Every time, they can catch the other party off guard. HKU basically has all the students. Winning record…”
Hu Bingwen said to her and Xu Yiyang: "You will go all out later. If you really lose, you must lose without being humble or arrogant, without panic. Don't let the opponent mess up your position."
Xu Yanan looked at Xu Yiyang and said, "Junior brother, we are relying on you today..."
Xu Yiyang nodded and smiled and said: "Senior sister, don't worry, even if he is the sprint champion today, I will have to fool him into lameness."
…
At half past two, the exchange officially began.
Xu Yiyang, Xu Yanan and another senior brother Zhang Yibo took the stage together with three senior students from the University of Hong Kong.
There was constant applause from the audience, mainly from HKU students applauding their classmates.
The lineup sent by HKU this time is similar to Xu Yiyang's, with one girl paired with two boys.
The girl is not pretty, she has very high glasses, and she looks like a top student at first glance. As for the other two boys, they are not tall, look very elegant, have a three-quarter hair style, and wear glasses. The smile on his face gives off a strong sense of superiority.
A very beautiful, delicate and petite girl from the University of Hong Kong acted as a supporter. She held a microphone and said to the audience in English: "Thank you all for coming to participate in this friendly exchange. I also welcome the three people from China Overseas International Studies University who participated in this exchange." Classmates, please give them a round of applause!”
The audience burst into applause.
The three of Xu Yiyang smiled and nodded, and bowed slightly to the audience.
Immediately, the host handed Xu Yanan a microphone and said with a smile: "Next, let's ask our three classmates from China Overseas International Studies University to take turns introducing themselves."
Xu Yanan was a little nervous, but still held the microphone and said, "Hello everyone, my name is Xu Yanan, and I am a senior student at the School of English at China Overseas International Studies University."
Xu Yanan's spoken English is pretty good. Although it's not as good as Xu Yiyang's, it can still be regarded as one of the better ones among non-native English speaking students.
The next Zhang Yibo can also speak well, but this time it is obvious that victory cannot be achieved by good speaking. The key is how to engage in this kind of fight with the other party on the topic initiated by the other party, with no victory or defeat on the surface, but with a strong sense of victory in reality.
When Xu Yiyang arrived, Xu Yiyang didn't say much, he just briefly introduced his name and grade.
Students at the Faculty of Arts of the University of Hong Kong have long known that he is very good at speaking, but it seems a bit wrong for China Overseas International Studies University to let a first-year student come up to communicate, right
In the final analysis, in this communication, speaking is secondary, the key is eloquence and what is in the mind!
Next, it was the turn of the three people from HKU to introduce themselves.
The first person to introduce himself said his name was Eric Chou, a senior student in the English Department of the University of Hong Kong.
As soon as he appeared on the stage, the audience screamed again and again, and many people shouted: "Senior Zhou, come on!" and "Senior Zhou, you are the best!"
Xu Yiyang was secretly surprised. He didn't expect that this guy would bring his own cheerleading team.
The other two people were named Ma Guangwei and Du Yanzhi.
However, the spoken language of the three of them is mixed with obvious Cantonese pronunciation habits, which is not very good.
After the introduction, six people from both sides sat on both sides of the host in a fan shape.
Because Xu Yiyang was responsible for China Overseas' main firepower output, he sat on the side closest to the host.
Opposite me, next to the host, was Eric Chou, who looked somewhat handsome but always looked at people with his chin.
The host handed the two microphones to Xu Yiyang and Eric Chou respectively. Xu Yiyang took the microphone and held it on his lap. After the other party took it, he weighed it in his hand for a few times and raised his eyebrows at Xu Yiyang. There seemed to be a disdainful snort between his breaths.
It's a bit provocative.
Xu Yiyang felt a little displeased when he looked at the very stinky boy in front of him.
At this time, the host said in a sweet voice: "The theme we want to communicate today is Hong Kong, so we have prepared a question bank with twenty questions. Both parties in our communication use a question-and-answer method and take turns to choose one." Ask the other party a question, and if the other party’s answer makes the questioner feel that they have some objections, then everyone can have a friendly debate on the objections.”
With that, she handed two cards to Xu Yiyang and Eric Chou respectively, and then said: "China Overseas International Studies University is the first time a guest comes to our HKU exchange, so we give the guests priority in the first round to ask questions. "
At this time, the large screens on both sides also displayed these twenty questions. The host said: "The audience can also see our 20 questions through the big screen. If there is enough time, we will also There will be a question-and-answer session where everyone can ask which of the twenty questions they are more concerned about."
The audience in the audience had already begun to browse these questions quickly, and immediately selected in their minds the questions they wanted to ask or hear.
The host looked at Xu Yiyang again and said, "Student Xu Yiyang, please choose a question to ask the other person."
Xu Yiyang nodded and glanced at the questions on the card, including "Why do you like Hong Kong?", "What do you think keeps Hong Kong leading in Asia?", "Where do you think the next development focus of Hong Kong will be?" , "In your mind, what do you think is the best thing about Hong Kong?", "As a young talent, are you willing to stay in Hong Kong and develop?", "Which Hong Kong star is your favorite? Why?", "You Which Hong Kong entrepreneur is your favorite? Why?”…
After looking around, all the questions were related to Hong Kong, and most of them were a bit narcissistic.
Xu Yiyang looked around and said: "I would like to ask the three students across from you, which Hong Kong star is your favorite? Why?"
The audience booed sporadically.
They hope to see everyone communicating and discussing more sharp issues, rather than just choosing an issue related to the entertainment industry.
This question is the only one related to the entertainment industry, and it is also the question that all the viewers feel is the most awkward after reading the twenty questions.
Eric Chou actually hopes that Xu Yiyang will ask some more in-depth questions, so that the long speech he prepared in advance can be expressed.
But I didn't expect that Xu Yiyang would choose such a dish as soon as he came up, which made him feel a little boring.
He was disappointed in his heart, smiled disdainfully on his face, and said: "Actually, such a low-level question is really boring, but since the classmate opposite asked it, I still have to answer it. I like Zhang Xueyou the most, Because he sings very well.”
After speaking, pass the microphone to the next boy.
The boy said: "I like Zhou Xingchi the most because I like his movies very much."
The last girl said: "I like Xie Tingfeng the most because he is more handsome."
The host asked Eric Chou: "Eric, do you want to hear the student opposite answer this question?"
Eric Chou shook his head and said: "I think this question is the least nutritious among the twenty questions, so I don't want the students opposite to answer it. Can you just let me start asking the question?"
The audience in the audience agreed, and some even cheered.
It seems that everyone feels that this question is not nutritious.
Xu Yiyang actually knew what the other party wanted. The other party should have prepared these twenty questions a long time ago, so it was like a program. Most of the questions were carefully prepared. If he deliberately asked those questions, he could make a long speech and talk. Doesn't Waiwai's question directly give the other party a chance to show off
That's why he wouldn't let Eric Chou get what he wanted. There was another question at the end, "What is your favorite Hong Kong food?", which he planned to ask the other person later.
The host smiled and said: "Then, let's ask Eric as a representative of the University of Hong Kong to ask questions."
Eric Chou looked at Xu Yiyang and asked proudly: "The question I want to ask the classmate opposite is, why do you like Hong Kong?"
Xu Yiyang smiled slightly, picked up the microphone, and said, "I would like to give Eric a piece of life advice: ask first if it is true, and then ask why."
In a word, the people opposite and in the audience have not yet reacted.
Eric Chou frowned and asked, "What do you mean?"
Xu Yiyang asked with a smile: "First ask if it is true, and then ask why. This is the basic logic for us normal people to ask questions. You ask me why I like Hong Kong, how do you know whether I like it or not?"
"It's like you are going out to take a bus to Causeway Bay. Before getting on the bus, you have to confirm with the driver whether this bus is the bus to Causeway Bay. If you don't ask clearly and see a bus, just walk up with your eyes closed. , and then asked the driver of the bus going to the airport: Why doesn't your bus go to Causeway Bay? Don't you think this is ridiculous?"
