So who won the bet?

I did.
14
This isn't about me, Sean.

I'm nothing compared to this young man.
16
Who over here with Gerald Lambeau?
17
In 1905, there were hundreds of professors renowned for their study of the universe,
18
but it was a 26-year-old Swiss patent clerk doing physics in his spare time who changed the world.
19
Can you imagine if Einstein would have given that up just to get drunk with his buddies in Vienna every night?
20
We all would have lost something.
21
Tim will never have heard of him.
22
Pretty dramatic, Jerry.
23
No, it isn't, Sean.
24
This boy has that gift.
25
He just hasn't got the direction, but we can give that to him.
26
Hey, Jerry, in the 1960s, there was a young man graduated from the University of Michigan.
27
Did some brilliant work in mathematics, specifically bounded harmonic functions.
28
Then he went on to Berkeley, was assistant professor, showed amazing potential.

Yo!

Direction's one thing, manipulation's another.
41
Well, Sean...
42
I'm not sitting at home every night twisting my mustache and hatching a plan to ruin this boy's life.
43
I was doing advanced mathematics when I was 18, and it still took me over 20 years to do something worthy of a Fields Medal.
44
Well, maybe he doesn't want what you want.
45
There's more to life than a f*ing Fields medal.
46
This is too important, Sean.
47
And it's about personal rivalry.
48
Wait a minute.
49
Wait a minute, Jerry.
50
Let's talk about the boy.
51
Why don't we give him time to figure out what he wants?
52
That's a wonderful theory, Sean.
53
It worked wonders for you, didn't it?
54
Yeah, it did, you arrogant f*ing prick.
55
Well, I'm sorry.

I'm sorry that I came here today.

61
Well, Will, I'm not exactly sure what you mean.
62
We've already offered you a position.
63
Nobody in this town works without a retainer, guys.
64
You think you can find somebody who does?
65
We tell you you have my blessing.
66
But I think we all know that person's not gonna represent you as well as I can.
67
Will, our offer is $84,000 a year.
68
Retainer!
69
Retainer.
70
You want us to give you cash right now.
71
Oh, oh, oh, eat it.
72
Now, I didn't say that.

Phương Pháp Shadowing Là Gì?

Shadowing là kỹ thuật học ngôn ngữ có cơ sở khoa học, ban đầu được phát triển cho chương trình đào tạo phiên dịch viên chuyên nghiệp và được phổ biến rộng rãi bởi nhà đa ngôn ngữ học Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Nguyên lý cốt lõi đơn giản nhưng cực kỳ hiệu quả: bạn nghe tiếng Anh của người bản xứ và lặp lại to ngay lập tức — như một "cái bóng" (shadow) đuổi theo người nói với độ trễ chỉ 1–2 giây. Khác với luyện ngữ pháp hay học từ vựng bị động, Shadowing buộc não bộ và cơ miệng phải đồng thời xử lý và tái tạo ngôn ngữ thực tế. Các nghiên cứu khoa học xác nhận phương pháp này cải thiện đáng kể phát âm, ngữ điệu, nhịp điệu, nối âm, kỹ năng nghe và độ lưu loát khi nói — đặc biệt hiệu quả cho người luyện IELTS Speaking và muốn giao tiếp tiếng Anh tự nhiên như người bản ngữ.
