Ask a Question
by Yang Lan
About This Novel
This is a book about questioning methodology, and it is also the hard work of Yang Lan's 30-year media career. Einstein said: "A person's ability to ask questions is more important than his ability to answer." After thirty years of media work experience and twenty-two years of producing "Interviews with Yang Lan", asking questions has not only become Yang Lan's profession, but also a way of life. She makes a living by asking questions. What she asks, how she asks, to what extent she asks, the tone and intonation of the question, and the propriety of the question are all closely related to the aesthetic ability of the questioner. Thousands of in-depth interviews and tens of thousands of questions have made her constantly think about how to ask questions effectively. She believes that questioning is the language methodology of cognition and communication. At the same time, asking questions is also a basic ability. The ability of "how to ask questions better" is something that everyone can use. Everyone has the ability to ask questions, and they can improve this ability through learning, improve their own cognition and communication quality, and even change the trajectory of their lives. Learning to ask questions and asking good questions is how we survive in this ever-changing society. Now let's start asking questions.

In work and life, we often encounter some people who answer questions that are not what they are asked, and some people actually say the questions are the answers. This is why many people fall into one common trap after another in the process of asking questions.
Think about the question from the perspective of the respondent and then ask the question, and then expect the other party to give you an answer that really solves your doubts. Even if there are no questions, ask some, even if it is just to appear polite, but many times the questions are asked out of this mentality. It may be the question you want to solve but have never asked.
Only the combination of EQ, IQ, skills, and eagerness to learn can make Ms. Yang Lan interview world-famous people like this. I have benefited a lot from competing with each other.
No matter what concerns you have, the best solution is to speak them out. Even if you don't speak well now, correct them slowly. If you don't know what kind of good opening remarks to use before speaking, express them in the most direct language. This method is often the best.
