A person should speak at least two; mother tongue plus a language that is common to your home area. Maianhvk, that you already speak two (Vietnamese and English) well is great. But if you plan to travel, it's a good idea to learn a bit of other languages as well.

and just one more question on languages: is it because I'm a beginner or the French speak too fast?

Native French speakers, especially those from France, speak faster than any other language I've ever heard! And I think when talking with non-French speakers they tend to talk even faster just to be mean!
I studied French in high school and often used it in Quebec, but when I first visited France, the speed of the language spoken there left me far behind!
