After Transmigrating into a Cannon Fodder Character in the 1980s, I Trash Them All - Chapter 305

Chapter 305: Anxious (1)

Translator: 549690339

The two sides officially began to talk. First, they had to introduce the people from both sides. Then, the chairman of the trade union would introduce the production and operation of the factory and the work of the trade union.

At the same time, the other party would also introduce some of the activities of their domestic union.

Yan Yi translated for both sides and translated the main situation for both sides. In the beginning, her translation was quite smooth. After all, they were all common terms. Later on, when both parties introduced the specific terms, she began to get a little stuck.

She had indeed studied abroad. At that time, she was not a professional translator.

Moreover, generally speaking, if one acted as a translator, one would have to understand the content of the translation in advance. After all, it would involve some professional knowledge, so they had to be prepared in advance.

He didn’t know if Yan Yi wasn’t too clear, or if she was too conceited, or maybe she was in danger and didn’t have time to prepare.

In short, she didn’t know much about professional terms and couldn’t explain it accurately.

Seeing the foreign party’s confused expression, our staff also felt a little strange, so they interrupted Yan Yi’s translation.

“What’s wrong? Is the other party dissatisfied with us? Or…?”

Yan Yi felt a headache, but she still said,”lt’s okay. There’s no problem.” She decided to skip some technical terms that were difficult to translate but did not affect the general meaning of the sentence.

Perhaps this would be better.

Yan Yi started to translate again. As expected, the words that were missing made her translation much smoother. However, she did not introduce the special products and crafts of this unit. She only gave a general summary.

When the factory leader emphasized a certain product, Yan Yi was completely stuck. She tried several times but couldn’t express it with precise words.

Facing so many pairs of eyes, she felt very embarrassed, so she coughed a few times to ease the tense atmosphere and hide the panic in her heart.

The other people present did not understand English, so they naturally thought that Yan Yi had a problem with her throat, so the translation was interrupted.

“Comrade Translator. Is your throat okay? Why don’t you drink some water to moisten your throat before translating?” Zhang Hong called Su Hanyan over and asked her to pour some water for Yan Yi.

“Don’t worry, it’s okay. Drink some water and take your time.” The members of the foreign delegation also comforted Yan Yi and asked her to drink some water.

Yan Yi had a decent smile on her face, In fact, her heart was already burning like a raging fire. She was very anxious. Facing such a situation, she didn’t know how to deal with it.

General English was different from professional English and even business English. She majored in finance and was familiar with financial vocabulary, but she had almost zero vocabulary for professional English such as chemical machinery.

She was really panicking. It was May, and she was sweating profusely, soaking her back.

Su Hanyan had been listening to the translation and had already noticed the problem.

Seeing that the beads of sweat on Yan Yi’s forehead were about to roll down, Su Hanyan smiled. After pouring her a glass of water, she said,”Manager, I think the translator’s throat is uncomfortable. Why don’t I translate for her?”

“You can do it?” Factory Manager Zhang knew Su Hanyan’s standard, but after all, an English teacher and a professional translator were still different. This was a big matter in the factory, so it was better to confirm it.

It was never too much to be cautious.

“It’ll work.” Su Hanyan said with certainty, ” She looks like she’s in a lot of pain. Why don’t you let me do it? ” I’m an employee of our factory.. I’m very familiar with the products, sales, and business principles of the factory! “
