Dialog 2

As in the previous chapter,this dialog is about DVD player negotiations,BOb and Jane are still the principals.In this scenario,Jane uses the smart method.She heads up a team who did their homework and they're ready for anything.She'll introduce team members to defend or attact,as needed.The dialog picks up after the introductions.

跟一章節(jié)相同,這個(gè)對(duì)話是關(guān)于DVD放影機(jī)的談判.鮑伯和珍仍然是主角.在這次的故事中,珍用了聰明的應(yīng)對(duì)方式,她帶領(lǐng)一組成員,每個(gè)人都做了準(zhǔn)備,可以處理任何狀況.她會(huì)視情況指示小組要攻、還是要守。對(duì)話從彼此介紹后開始。

Bob:Well,let's go to it,shall we?

好了,開始談?wù)掳?

My numbers people tell me we can afford to offer $12.42 per unit delivered to L.A.

我的財(cái)務(wù)人員告訴我,我方可以提供的價(jià)格是單位價(jià)格12.42美元,洛杉磯交貨.

Jane:That's a lot less than we were expecting.

這比我們所期望的價(jià)格低了很多.

Bob:That's true,Jane,but we have a little crisis going on over here.

沒錯(cuò),珍,但我們這里發(fā)生了一些危機(jī).

The Koreans are dumping units in the southern California market and we need a lower price to be competitive.

韓國(guó)人傾銷了許多產(chǎn)品到南加州市場(chǎng),我們需要低一點(diǎn)的價(jià)格,才能和別人競(jìng)爭(zhēng).

Otherwise,the units will just sit in the warehouse.

要不然,所有的產(chǎn)品就只能放在倉(cāng)庫(kù)里了.

Bill made a study of the market and he's prepared a report for us.Bill, would you please?

比爾做了市場(chǎng)調(diào)查,也為大家準(zhǔn)備了一份報(bào)告.比爾,可以開始嗎?

Bill:That's right

好的.

A manufacturer headquartered in Seoul is assembling units in Malaysia and shipping them directly to L.A.

有一家總部設(shè)于在首爾的制造商,在馬來(lái)西亞組裝產(chǎn)品,然后將成品直接運(yùn)送到洛杉磯.

They goosed their exports fifteen percent and it's all landing in our territory.

他們?cè)黾恿税俜种宓某隹诹?全部都到了美國(guó).

They're nearly doubled their market share and we're on the ropes.

最近他們的市場(chǎng)占有率更是增長(zhǎng)了一倍,我們的情況很不利.

Jane:We heard about the Koreans and Joseph did some checking for me.

我們聽說了關(guān)于韓國(guó)人的這件事,喬瑟夫幫我查了一下情況.

I'll let him tell you what he found out. Joe?

我會(huì)讓他向大家報(bào)告一下他所知道的情況,喬,可以嗎?

Joe:Yes. We were also worried about the Koreans and found that they did increase output by fifteen percent.

好的.我們也很擔(dān)心韓國(guó)人這次的傾銷舉動(dòng).他們的確增加了百分之十五的產(chǎn)量.

However,they increased distribution throughout the west coast,and only about five percent,at most,is getting to your market in southern California.

但他們的鋪貨是平均分散到整下美國(guó)西岸,最多也只有百分之五是銷售到你們南加州的市場(chǎng)中.

Further,the price is low but the quality sucks.

再說,他們的價(jià)格雖然低,但品質(zhì)很差.

We have reports of about an eighteen percent return and exchange rate,and sales fell off dramatically once word of that got out.

我們接到的報(bào)告顯示,他們大約有百分之十八的退貨率和換貨率.消息傳出去后,他們的銷售業(yè)績(jī)就大幅下滑.

The overall impact in Northern California is at worst,minimal.

即使受到最大沖擊的北加州,也只受了些微小影響.

In fact,there's evidence the poor quality is lowering their market share on not just comparable units,but all their lines-everything they sell under that brand name across the boards.

事實(shí)上,證據(jù)顯示,因?yàn)樗麄兊钠焚|(zhì)不良,不只DVD放影機(jī),幾乎所有同廠牌的產(chǎn)品線都受到波及,市場(chǎng)點(diǎn)有率都下滑.

Gentleman,I think you're worried about nothing.

各位,我想你們的煩惱是多余的.

Bob:Well,that's certainly nice to know.But,it doesn't alter the depressed economy.

知道那種情況,的確讓人安心不少,但經(jīng)濟(jì)還是不景氣.

If we're going to move those units,we have to offer them at a damn good price.

如果我們要把這些產(chǎn)品銷售出去,我們就必須能提供一個(gè)非常好的價(jià)格.

Jane:We agree. Louis prepared a study on that aspect of your market and ...Well,I'll let him tell you what he found.

沒錯(cuò),路易斯準(zhǔn)備了一份關(guān)于你們市場(chǎng)景氣的報(bào)告,讓他來(lái)說明一下他的調(diào)查結(jié)果.
