"It is too difficult for us to learn Chinese or something, but it is not the same language as us. It is a common language for international trade."

The ambassadors below were in an uproar. They were using the alphabetical system, and they wanted to use Chinese as the common language in international trade...

Currently, only students from Queen's College of England, and a few Westerners who came to the East to trade, understand Chinese, while the vast majority of people know nothing.

The replacement cost is also a bit high when changing the language of international trade from the commonly used Portuguese and Spanish to Chinese.

"There is a special Queen's College in London. We can use two languages ​​to teach. We have also invented pinyin to assist people from other kingdoms in learning. Moreover, we can send Chinese lecturers to the outside world to set up overseas students to accept study abroad. As long as you live here for a few years, the language will be soon started. There are many foreign ministers among you who are good at several languages. It should not be difficult to learn Chinese." The person who Chu Yun summoned him with his own Chinese. After he has improved his national strength to an incomparable level, he finally began to export culture to the whole world.

If you want to engage in cultural colonization, the most important thing is language.

Now Portuguese and Spanish have not occupied an absolute position in international trade, and are not truly international languages, and there is no real international language yet.

If there is a language that can become a common language in the fields of world trade, education, navigation, etc., it will indirectly affect the world for the next few hundred years.

I heard that the Queen's College in England, everyone looked at Sofia. She was the first person to set up a bilingual college in Europe. Moreover, the Queen's College was built by her donations. It is said that Chu Yun also donated money.

"If you can maintain a hard-working attitude, Chinese is not that difficult to learn with pinyin. Although there are some accents, it does not affect normal communication." Sofia said.

She only lived here for a few years, and her accent was more influenced by her native language, and she was called English Chinese by Chu Yun.

It is really normal to have an accent. Even the accents of people in different local areas vary greatly. Only children who have received new education from childhood can correct their accents from the beginning and form standard pronunciations.

Chu Yun knew that he planned to promote his local currency and language to the status of international trade, which would cause a lot of sensation, and even protests from some countries.

People often resist the changes brought about by new things, not to mention that the global scope of Chinese and silver dollars is not necessarily a good thing for them, China is the main body to benefit.

But Chu Yun believed that the countries would eventually have to use new international common languages ​​and common currencies.

Which country is the most powerful, then the standards it sets are likely to become international standards. For example, when the Sun never sets in the Empire, English and British pound became common languages ​​and common currencies.

In fact, Chu Yun does not need to be so anxious. As East-West trade increases, the Western economy will become dependent on the Eastern economy and commodities, and will naturally form a set of Eastern standards over time.

Chu Yun was a little worried that Europeans would gather together to play their own style again, so he had to establish in advance to propose the use of Chinese and silver dollars as international common languages ​​and common currencies.

"Our merchant ships in the east are active in every corner of the world. The territory we control alone accounts for nearly one-third of the world's population, and the population and areas covered by direct trade may reach an astonishing half. Which country can do this? If even our language is not qualified to be a common language, then which language has such qualifications?" Chu Yun's words forced the people below to admit it.

It seems that no country can conduct large-scale trade around the world so widely.

"If you can master our language, you can get more trade opportunities from us. In addition, we promote technology to the outside world and teach Chinese. This is the foundation of modern civilization. Only by using Chinese can we provide technical assistance to you."

In order to induce them to learn Chinese, Chu Yun threw out another important bargaining chip other than trade.

Don’t you want to obtain technology? After developing a new generation of technology, Chu Yun can provide useless technical assistance to improve overall productivity.

Although outdated technology is useless to China, West Asia is an unavailable advanced technology for the continental region at this time.

If they want to learn the eliminated technology, they need to learn the language here, otherwise they will not be able to understand the content of the technology.

"In the future, all our technical papers and books will be written in Chinese characters, so you should understand the necessity of learning Chinese. This is also necessary to reduce the cost of communication, otherwise the whole world will be filled with different languages ​​and it will be difficult to conduct technical communication."

As Chu Yun threw out the important news of technical assistance, the ambassadors of the countries were unable to settle down. They could not even buy gold, but they did not expect that the premise was to learn Chinese.

"Can we all these technologies help us?" Some ambassadors seemed to see hope of obtaining technology, and their expressions were a little excited.

"Of course." Chu Yun agreed.

However, he did not explain when technical assistance will be provided... and when new technologies come in the future, gradually transfer the eliminated technologies to the West.

Chu Yun added: "If you want to obtain technology from us, it is not just a matter of learning Chinese, but also a patent fee is required to pay us. We will establish a complete set of international patent bills that explicitly stipulate the technical assistance procedures."

Of course, Chu Yun will not provide technology free of charge, and you need to charge money! In the future, you will use eliminated technology to assist the other party and will also charge huge patent fees from them every year!

Obtaining a steady stream of patent fees through patents, the other party is probably grateful to you because they have obtained technology that they cannot develop, and the lives of civilians have improved.

The patent fees collected can be invested in the research and development of new technologies, maintaining long-term leadership in technology.

This practice was often played in Chu Yun's era, a country called America, but in this era there was no way to collect patent fees across countries. The first patent law appeared in England more than 20 years ago and was not popular yet.

"It is really difficult to learn Chinese and pay protection fees..." The delegations from Tsarist Russia, Poland and other kingdoms muttered.
