Lu Yu's interview was later dubbed by the audience as "whoever is interviewed is unlucky", but we can't deny Lu Yu's sharp eyes and sharp words as a famous host. When he interviewed Yao Ming, he asked him why China people still speak English. In fact, if she had spent more time to understand the story behind Yao Ming, she wouldn't have asked such mindless questions. When Yao Ming celebrated the NBA, he was looked down upon by many foreign basketball players, and he didn't speak English. So in his spare time of training, he had to study English hard, and finally got a place in the NBA, and his spoken English also made great progress. However, this does not mean that the basketball player who went to the NBA in the United States worships foreign things and flatters foreign countries. His heart is still in China. When answering Lu Yu, he said this: "Because it is difficult for Asians to tell apart because they live abroad all the year round, they usually wait for the other person to speak first and see what language the other person speaks, and then answer in this language." Yao Ming's choice is understandable and can be said to be a wise move. This answer also persuaded Lu Yu.
Second, there is no doubt about the patriotism of basketball players.
When Lu Yu asked this sentence, he was also intentionally guiding the audience to speculate on Yao Ming's intention, wondering whether this person who lives abroad all the year round worships foreign things and flatters foreign countries. But as far as Yao Ming's great contribution to our country is concerned, his patriotism is beyond doubt. As a public figure, Lu Yu should also pay attention to his words and deeds and guide his fans correctly, instead of maliciously speculating his guests.
Third, Yao Ming's honest answer also showed wisdom.
It is a wise and polite choice to decide which language to answer according to the other party's questions. So when Lu Yu heard the answer, she was speechless. After all, she asked questions in English first, and Yao Ming answered them in English.
On the occasion of the Winter Olympics, Yao Ming once again appeared in front of the audience, and we also remembered his contribution to the basketball cause in China.
