Dong Qiangqiang's Story of Leaving Germany

Chapter 804 804. No problem

Opposite the desk is a black leather folding chair, which should be Dong Qiangqiang's seat.

The professor nodded friendly to Dong Qiangqiang: "Good morning, please sit down."

While Dong Qiangqiang was seated, he heard the professor introduce, "I am Professor Thomas Chemnitz from the Department of Economics, this lady is Dr. Mara Weimer from the Trier University Examination Committee, and this man is Trier Professor Andreas Bernstein of the University Examination Board. I am in charge of the conversation with you today, and my two colleagues will also participate in the whole process, and they will also ask you questions. Please answer seriously and honestly.”

Dong Qiangqiang’s only worry before the talk was that he could not understand the professor’s German. After all, Trier belongs to Southwest Germany and is at the junction of several European countries. There are many accents and dialects, which are completely different from the standard German spoken in Hannover. If you don't understand and answer the wrong questions, it will definitely affect the result of class exemption.Fortunately, the German taught by Thomas is not only standard, but the speaking speed is much lower than that of the preparatory German teacher. It seems that he intends to take care of him, a foreign student.

Professor Thomas made an excellent first impression on Dong Qiangqiang.

"Hello, two teachers." Dong Qiangqiang greeted with a smile.

The woman had neat brown shoulder-length short hair, and a face with sharp edges and bones, and she told Dong Qiangqiang immediately that she was a German.

Her face was expressionless even when the professor introduced her, and she didn't even say hello to Dong Qiangqiang after the introduction, as if Dong Qiangqiang didn't exist.

And Professor Andreas Bernstein is obviously older than the other two, and he has a big curly hair that is very incongruous with the identity of a teacher. Due to too much pomade, it makes people have a kind of oily and slippery look. sense of sight.The drooping triangular eyes gleamed on the long horse-like face.He stared at Dong Qiangqiang intently, as if he would attack at any time.

As if he had confirmed with the woman in advance, he didn't take the initiative to say hello to Dong Qiangqiang.

Dong Qiangqiang put the original materials she brought on the professor's desk. At this time, Zheng Chunhua also gave Dong Qiangqiang's previously copied materials to the other two. Before walking out of the office, she secretly gave Dong Qiangqiang a thumbs up. Indicate that you have received the other person's heart.

Professor Thomas went straight to the topic while flipping through Dong Qiangqiang's transcript: "Please briefly explain what courses you have studied in Chinese universities?"

Dong Qiangqiang thought to himself: Don’t the notarial certificates all write the subjects studied and test scores?Why do you have to ask?But after thinking about it, I understood the reason: if it is a person who falsifies the report card, the first question is likely to reveal the truth, even if the truth is not revealed, it will panic, panic will make a picture, and the picture will make words and actions out of shape.

He quickly glanced at the two people in the examination committee from the corner of his eye, only to see that they were staring at him like a formidable enemy.

Although Dong Qiangqiang studied a junior college in China, his domestic grades are solid, without any moisture, plus a year of preparatory studies, so he didn't panic at all, and immediately replied without being humble or arrogant: "The subjects I have studied in domestic universities are mainly There are three major modules, namely mathematics module, economics module and finance module. Mathematics has studied calculus, advanced algebra, probability and mathematical statistics. The economics module has mainly learned Mankiw's economic principles, macroeconomics, microeconomics Economics, western economics, international economics, etc. In the finance module, I have learned securities investment, corporate finance, investment banking..."

These good friends of his have long reminded him that during the interview, he must draw the other party's attention to the courses he has carefully prepared.On the one hand, the grades of these courses he listed are relatively good, which is easy to attract the attention (or suspicion) of the other party. The knowledge learned is clearer and firmer. As long as the other party is interested, let Dong Qiangqiang freely play any subject, and he can easily use up 20 minutes.Especially for knowledge points related to economics, as long as you finish explaining the concepts and then give a few examples, time will run out.

Following Dong Qiangqiang's introduction, the professor's dead-twig-like fingers wandered among the different subjects on his report card. As soon as Dong Qiangqiang finished speaking, the professor immediately threw a few calculus problems.

For Dong Qiangqiang, who has done calculus problems for a year, these problems are all small characters who can be solved easily with formulas.

Seeing Dong Qiangqiang's problem-solving process and answers written on the paper, the professor nodded with satisfaction.

Dong Qiangqiang was secretly happy when he saw the professor draw a "√" in the space after "Advanced Mathematics".

For Dong Qiangqiang, oh, no, to be precise, it should be that for all Chinese students who go abroad with their own ability, mathematics has never been a problem.

Dong Qiangqiang couldn’t help but feel secretly happy after the success of the flag. The professor really followed his introduction and asked questions from the beginning. The interview process was similar to what he imagined: the teacher asked questions, the students answered, the teacher questioned students according to the students’ answers, and finally based on the quality of the answers. Decide whether to exempt students from the corresponding subjects.The people from the examination committee were just observing to make sure that the teacher did not cheat for personal gain.

My own ideas have been confirmed, and the rest is to write and recite silently. For those concepts that are familiar to me, I don’t even need to recite, just talk about his understanding directly.It seems that exempting from class is not as exaggerated as what Zheng Chunhua and Du Lan said, and he should be able to win it today.

He felt invigorated, and even his muscles felt instantly soothed and relaxed.

The professor asked again: "Can you explain the meaning of Prisoner's Dilemma and Nash Equilibrium? And how people can get out of Prisoner's Dilemma?"

The Prisoner's Dilemma is a typical example of a static game with complete information in economics game theory. Dong Qiangqiang has been in college and preparatory school twice, so he is no stranger to it.

"The Prisoner's Dilemma was first proposed jointly by Merrill Flood and Melvin Dresher of the RAND Corporation in the United States. Taking a special game relationship as an example, it was elaborated more comprehensively and in detail and formed the Prisoner's Theory, which was later officially named as the Prisoner's Dilemma..."

He was about to talk eloquently, when the woman from the examination committee suddenly made a pause gesture to him, Dong Qiangqiang had no choice but to stop for some reason.

"Please answer the question in English." The woman asked blankly.

English?Dong Qiangqiang felt that the muscles that had just been relieved were tense again.

"You mean," Dong Qiangqiang deliberately asked slowly in German, "is this question answered in English or all questions are answered in English?" He wanted to buy himself more time to think.

Seeing that Dong Qiangqiang was puzzled, the woman carefully pinched the lower edge of his report card copy with the thumb and index finger of her left hand, and pointed to the score on it with her right index finger and said to Dong Qiangqiang: "The notarial certificate shows that your oral English scores in college are very good. , so please answer all questions in English."

The woman pronounced "English" and "all questions" very hard, for fear that Dong Qiangqiang might not understand.

Although Dong Qiangqiang's oral English scores are true, he did not prepare English for what he had learned in college, mainly German.As soon as Professor Thomas came up to communicate with him in German, he also thought that today's conversation must be communicated in German.

Only now did he realize that today's conversation was very different from the script he envisioned.

But the other party's request was reasonable. If he insisted on answering in German, it would definitely arouse the other party's doubts about his performance. He suddenly understood why the international friend in front was disgraced. Maybe he made a mistake in this kind of place.

He took a deep breath, trying to slow down his heartbeat.

Don't panic!hold on!
Although his English is not as good as German, it is much better than when he was in China.If I had come directly to the University of Trier to discuss exemptions, I am afraid the reaction now would be even worse.

He suddenly felt fortunate: fortunate that he got the direct admission letter from Trier University when he was not in China, fortunate that he studied English for another year in the preparatory course, fortunate that he was exposed to English articles every day, and fortunate that Duanmu forced him to read English materials He didn't get lazy and didn't give up. Fortunately, he still spoke English from time to time when leading the tour group.

In order to get to where he is today, he has really paid a lot, and he does not allow himself to give up easily.

"Is there any question?" "Big Back Head" asked with narrowed eyes.

Dong Qiangqiang quickly went through the Chinese content he wanted to express in his mind, then looked at the woman and "Big Back Head" with a smile on his face, and replied firmly in English: "No problem."
