A：What happens if we make a deal and thirty to sixty days after delievery the price goes down and you didn't get the best possible price?How do I handle that?

如果我們達(dá)成了交易,但交貨的30~60天內(nèi),市面降價,導(dǎo)致你的價格不是最好的,該怎么辦?我要如何處理?

B：Well,these things happens,I know that. You just have to stay straight with me.

嗯,這是難免的,你只要直接告知我就可以了.

A：Right! So how do I do that? What will make you happy?

好!那我該如何配合,才能讓你感到滿意?

B：Well,I suggest you just keep me posted.That should do it.That way the burden is on me to decide when to buy, not you.

我建議你隨時跟我報告最新狀況,這樣就夠了.那樣,我就能看準(zhǔn)時間下單.畢竟做決定的人是我,不是你.

A：Excuse me?

什么?

B：Yeah,it really is that simple.Every time there's a change in the items we do business on , you let me know. That's all you need to do .

沒錯,就是這么簡單.只是交易的項目有變動,你就要讓我知道.這么做就夠了.

A：What kind of change,just in prices?

什么變動,只有價格嗎?

B：No,any change.I want you to keep me as informed as you are.I need to know as much as you do . If you hear about something that might happen,then tell me about it.Tell me it's rumor, what it's based on and your opinion on how likely it is.

不,任何變動,我要你隨時提供最新進(jìn)展給我.你知道的事,我也要知道.如果你聽到什么風(fēng)聲,你就要告訴我.就算是傳言,也要告訴我為什么會有這種傳言,你認(rèn)為其可信度怎樣?

A：You mean on product availability,reliability and price?

你是指產(chǎn)品的獲得性?可信度?還有價格?

B：No ,everthing.Those things for sure,but also labor problems,raw materials,new subcontractors,mergers,in short,anything and everything.So I can make a fully informed decision.

不只,是每件事.當(dāng)然包含你剛剛說的那些項目,還有勞工問題、原料、分包商、合并等。決而言之，每件事我都要知道。這樣我的決定才不會錯。

A：So it's like you want me to be your eyes and ears into the indutry.I can do that,provided the company I'm working for isn't hurt.

也就是說，你要我當(dāng)你在業(yè)界的眼線�？梢允强梢�，只要不影響我的公司就好。

B：I think we'll get along fine.

我想我們會合作愉快。
