The intro

(Listening Comprehension)

Hey,what's up ? It's Mr.Wong here. I've been receiving a lot of flak because they say I'm a cheapskate, and that I admit, I am a cheapskate. Haha ! But it depends. You see, I give out 10 red packets or red envelopes on QQ everyday. Each of them contains one cent, here's the tricky part guys, if you do the math, there are 365 days in a year. I give out 1 cent to 10 of you everyday, 100 days is 1 Yuan, so 365 days is umm...uhhh...it's 3. ummm, okay ! There's a reason why I flunked math. Let's just say almost 4 Yuan a year per person. Now that might be nothing to you guys, but if you really think about it, I'm actually giving out 10 cents a day ! Sometimes more, so 10 days is 1 Yuan ! 365 days is uhh, damn I hate math, it's 36.5 Yuan ? Hey that's a lot of money man ! You can get a big bowl of "malatang"(麻辣烫)! You can get ice cream or a value meal at Mickey D's. Not only that I choose to give out money everyday, but to be that consistent, it takes a lot of dedication ! Speaking of the word "cheapskate", that's gonna be our word of the day. Check it out !
