Dialogue

---

Lucien: You sound in a low mood today. Is there anything that's baffling you?

• Option 1

MC: Nothing. It's the meeting today. The other party doesn't seem very cooperative.

Lucien: I see.

Lucien: There is no need to worry about it.

Lucien: Would you mind talking about the details?

• Option 2

MC: It's a work thing. My partner and I have many conflicting views.

Lucien: Well, divergent views are a common issue in cooperation.

Lucien: Don't get too upset about it.

• Option 3

MC: Have you noticed it? It's just a matter from work. There are some communication issues with my partner.

Lucien: So [MC], would you like to tell me more about it?

Lucien: Maybe I can help you.

• Option 1

MC: What should I do to express my point of view more strongly?

Lucien: I think you are very good at this.

Lucien: If you must make improvements, you could probably try to refine your words and then get your point across in the shortest time.

Lucien: As for other ways to cope with different scenarios, we could find some time to sit down and talk.

• Option 2

MC: What can I do to be immune from others' emotions? I hope I can act more professionally in the future.

Lucien: First of all, I think you should realize that these emotions you feel about other people are reasonable, and it doesn't mean that you are not professional.

Lucien: Under this premise, we can then use certain methods to shun the negative effects of some emotions.

Lucien: For specific responses to different scenarios, we'll need to have a talk some other time.

• Option 3

MC: What can I do to offer a different opinion without upsetting the other person?

Lucien: Well... it is a very difficult question in terms of conversation skills.

Lucien: In a way, different opinions can be equated to offense.

Lucien: As for how to minimize offense when giving opinions... I think maybe we could discuss it in person.

• Option 1

MC: Since you put it that way, why don't we make an appointment today, Professor?

Lucien: Sure, I'll see you at the usual place after work.

Lucien: I'm not very busy at the Research Center.

Lucien: It seems that I'm lucky enough not to miss the opportunity to help you out today.

• Option 2

MC: Thank you, Professor, for your willingness to "teach me a lesson". I feel like I'm gonna bother you again.

Lucien: In this case, according to the conversation skills, I should say that I don't find it troublesome and rather enjoy it.

Lucien: Frankly, that's how I really feel.

Lucien: Solving problems for you can also make me satisfied somehow.

• Option 3

MC: Let's make it this weekend. I already feel better after just a few words with you.

Lucien: Really? I'm glad.

Lucien: No matter what troubles you may have in the future, you can always talk to me. I wish you'll share with me every little thing in your life.

Lucien: See you on weekend.
