I see you found my ad.
2
Trying to steal my thunder, Harvey?
3
Business School 101.
4
You have a crisis, you acknowledge the problem.
5
You want to be Tylenol, not Toyota.
6
A little late for you to acknowledge this is a crisis.
7
Ladies and gentlemen, thank you very much for coming here today.
8
Quentin Sands placed this ad because your lawsuit made it clear that his drug had side effects that he didn't know about.
9
We wanted to know how widespread this problem was.
10
We had an outpouring of response, not from people struggling like yourselves, but from people desperate to keep the drug available.
11
You think we're lying.
12
You're here because you think this company has been hiding things from you.
13
And you're right.
14
They have.
15
But Quentin wants to come clean.
16
He wants to show you exactly what it is that he's been hiding.
17
I can't really open it.
18
I can't hold anything.
19
I don't know how much longer I can keep working.
20
It'll get better.
21
It will.
22
You know it will.
23
I guess.
24
I bet my life on it.
25
It's not fair you got ALS in the first place.
26
And it's definitely not fair you had side effects from the drug I created and I didn't.
27
But now that I know they exist, I want to fix them.
28
So that people like you, and maybe even you, can have what I have right now.
29
But he can't.
30
He can't if he gives you what you're asking.
31
We're not saying that you don't deserve compensation.
32
Our commitment to you is this.
33
We are offering you partial ownership in his company.
34
A company that is trying to save lives.
35
Money isn't going to help you live longer.
36
Taking the deal and letting Quentin try and fix the problem could.
37
Like it or not, you're all in the same boat.
38
Give Quentin the opportunity to keep that boat from sinking.
39
Thank you.

Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?
Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
