超经典情景对话链接
经典一
Chairman: All right. Let's get things started.We will discuss how toincrease sales in Asia next year. Any idea.
Larry: I think we should improve popularity of our products at the verybeginning of next year.
Bob: I quite agree with you. More chain shops in some large cities shouldbe opened in Asia, for instance Beijing.
Chairman: Could we have your comments, Alexander?
Alexander: Well. I think you are right, but the problem is that our productsare somewhat expensive.
Bob: You mean we'll have to reduce our prices?
Alexander: Exactly. I think we need to cut down prices by 15%. Ourmarketing strategy should be to make small profits but quick returns.
Bob: I disagree. You know, we only make a small profit at these prices.
Apparently we will be bound to be in the red. As I can see, it is moreimportant to improve product's quality and after-sales service than toreduce prices.
Chairman: I agree with your points. On one hand, we need to do furtheradvertising and promotion. On the other hand, we should strengthen ourafter-sales service. It's a good idea to open some more chain shops insome large cities. Do you all agree.
All: Yes.
Chairman: Well, do you have another question?
Larry: I think we should take advantage of new technology which enablesto improve our quality.
Alexander: But it will cost us more capital.
Chairman: I don’t think so. The more you give, the more you get. I willtry to raise more funds on technology research. Anything else.
Bob: Ah! What’s more, we need good sales representatives in Asia.
Larry: Yes, good sales representatives increase our turnovers in Asianmarket.
Chairman: Great! I give this assignment to you. I hope I can see a largeupsurge of the sales in Asian market. That’s all. Dismiss!
董事长:好。我们开始会议吧。我们将讨论明年如何提高亚洲区的销售额。
拉里:我认为应该在年初改进产品的知名度。
鲍勃:我同意。在亚洲地区大城市应该开更多的连锁店,比如北京。
董事长:亚历山大,你有什么看法?
亚历山大:嗯,我认为有道理,但问题是我们的价格有点贵。
鲍勃:你是说我们必须降价?
亚历山大:没错。我认为价格该降15%。我们的市场策略是薄利多销。
鲍勃:我不同意。你知道低价就难获得利润。那样很明显,我们会负债。如我们所看到,提高产品质量和售后服务比降价更重要。
董事长:我同意。一方面,我们进一步加大广告宣传。另一方面我们应该加强售后服务。在大城市开连锁店是好想法。你们同意吗?
所有人:是的。
董事长:嗯,还有其他问题吗?
拉里:我认为应该引进新技术提高产品质量。
亚历山大:但是需要很大投资资金。
董事长:我不同意。没有投资就没有回报。我会筹集更多资金投在技术研发上。还有别的吗?
鲍勃:还有,我们需要优秀的亚洲区经销代理商。
拉里:对,经销代理商能够增加我们的营业额。
董事长:好。这个任务你来做。我希望我们能够提高亚洲区的销售额。会议结束,解散。
