Foreigners speak Chinese, which was a landscape 20 years ago. If you meet a foreigner rolling his tongue and saying "thank you" in the street, it's rare to see him. It was at that time that Dashan, a Canadian full of "Beijing movies", became popular. Now, Beijing is full of foreigners, and many of them can speak Chinese. The mountains of Korea, Japan and Turkey ... are really different in height. Coupled with more people learning Chinese, all kinds of Chinese training courses offered by universities in Beijing are always overcrowded. A friend who just started teaching Chinese said, "I knew I was in China when I was teaching foreigners, but I didn't know where I was after class. I always feel that it is a meeting at the United Nations. Every time they raise their hands and ask questions together, just like the UN General Assembly is voting. " It is said that "I want to learn Chinese" has become a mantra abroad. Figures released by domestic media show that at present, 30 million foreigners around the world learn Chinese knowledge through basic teaching materials such as "reading pictures". In bookstores in many countries, the fastest-selling Chinese books are Chinese textbooks. In addition, many China teachers go abroad as visiting scholars to teach Chinese abroad every year. Just like Ge You in "Be there or be square", with a pointer, he said majestically, "Be honest and don't move."
The global craze for Chinese is due to China's profound culture, which no one can refuse. Of course, more importantly, in the last 20 years, China's economy has gone up and ordinary people have money in their pockets. No one dares to ignore us. In fact, many foreigners are deeply aware of the importance of mastering Chinese as soon as possible.
During the "Eleventh" holiday, the author and a group of friends went to Bali, Indonesia, and found that many locals can speak a few words of Chinese. In the resort hotel where the author stayed, there was a very friendly and enthusiastic water sports coach who could speak three sentences in Chinese. The first sentence is "Can you swim", which is used before water sports such as windsurfing to judge the self-help ability of participants. The second sentence is "What do you mean?" Use this sentence when you can't communicate effectively to express your anxiety. The third sentence is more lethal. When we said "thank you" to him, the coach suddenly said "Don't work hard, serve the people", which really scared everyone. Unexpectedly, on this romantic island near the equator, there is still an exotic living Lei Feng hidden.
