ConversationsDialogue 1B: Mrs. Wang, would you give us an idea of the price you regard as workable?
W: As I said before, your price is so high that we find it difficult to make a bid. We hope you will take the initiative and bridge the gap.
B: Just to comply, we're ready to reduce the price by 5 percent. I hope this concession of ours will get the ball rolling.
W: So do we. Certainly it's a step forward on your side. But the gap is still too wide.
B: The ball is in your court, Mrs.Wang. What price would you suggest?
W: To make your offer workable, I think you should take another step down as big as the one you've just taken.
B: That won't do. You see, our profit margin is very narrow. It simply can't stand such a big cut.
W: I hate to disappoint you, Mr. Brown, but if that's the case, we have no alternative but to cover our requirements elsewhere. Do think it over, please. We sincerely hope our discussion will come to a suc cess ful conclusion.
B: Well, I'm not authorized to agree to such a big reduction. Would you mind waiting a day or two, until I get a reply from the home office?
W: Not at all. Shall we meet again, say, on Friday morning?
B: Good. Friday morning at 9.
-- 王小姐，你認(rèn)為什么價格可行呢？
-- 我講過， 你方價格太高使我們很難還價，希望你方能主動彌合差距。
-- 好吧，依從你們的意見，我們準(zhǔn)備削價5%，希望我們這次讓步能 打開局面。
-- 我們也希望如此。 當(dāng)然你們方面是前進(jìn)了一步，但是差距還是很大。
-- 王小姐，看你的了。你出個價吧？
-- 要使你方報盤可行的話，我認(rèn)為你應(yīng)象剛才一樣再跨出一步。
-- 這不行。你知道，我方利潤額很小了，實(shí)在經(jīng)不起這樣大幅度的削 價了。
-- 布朗先生，我不想使你感到失望，但是如果你方堅(jiān)持這樣的話，我 們沒有別的辦法，只好從別處購買了。請仔細(xì)考慮一下，我們衷心 希望這次談判能圓滿達(dá)成。
-- 是這樣，我無權(quán)同意這樣大幅度的削價，請你等我一兩天，好嗎？ 我要等國內(nèi)總公司的答復(fù)。
-- 當(dāng)然可以。那我們星期五上午再見面，好不好？
-- 好，星期五上午九點(diǎn)。
Dialogue 2
B: Good morning, Mrs.Wang. Any news?
W: Yes. I've succeeded in persuading our export manager to agree to a reduction of ten percent. He made this an exception with an eye to future business.
B: Good. We certainly appreciate your making these concessions for us.
W: May I repeat 15 Tunnel Drillers, specifications as shown in the technical data, at 57,000 Swiss Francs each, F.O.B. European Main Ports? Business is closed at this price.
B: Yes, that's right. Shall we go over the other terms and conditions of the transaction to see if we agree on all the particulars?
W: All right. We have no objection to the stipulations about the packing and shipping marks. As a matter of fact, we always packour machines in new strong wooden cases suit able for long distance ocean transportation.
B: The machines must be well protect ed against dampness, moisture, rust, and be able to stand shock and rough handling.
W: We'll see to that.
-- 王小姐，早上好。有什么消息嗎？
-- 有，我已經(jīng)說服我方出口部經(jīng)理同意降價10%。他考慮到以后的生 意，所以破例降價。
-- 太好了，我們非常感激你方做出這些讓步。
-- 我再重復(fù)一下報盤：15臺隧道鉆機(jī)，規(guī)格詳見技術(shù)資料，歐洲主要 港口離岸價每臺五萬七千瑞士法郎。交易就按此價敲定。
-- 沒錯。我們再檢查一下這項(xiàng)交易的其他條款，好嗎？看看有沒有意 見不一致的地方？
-- 好，我們同意關(guān)于包裝和嘜頭的條款。其實(shí)，我們的機(jī)器包裝都 采用適合于長途海洋運(yùn)輸?shù)膷湫吕喂痰哪鞠洹?br />
-- 機(jī)器的包裝必須防濕、防潮、防銹、防震，并且經(jīng)得起粗魯?shù)陌徇\(yùn)。
-- 我們會注意的。
B: They are to be shipped not later than Sep tem ber 2001.
W: There's no question about that.
B: And what about the terms of payment?
W: Payment by L/C, to be opened by the buyer 15 to 20 days prior to the date of delivery. That's what we've agreed upon, isn't it?
B: Yes, quite so.
W: We'd like to add the condition that the letter of credit shall be valid until the 15th day after shipment. You know, it sometimes takes us a week or so to get all the shipping documents ready for the presentation and negotiation. This will give us more leeway.
B: That can be done. Any questions about the in spec tion and claims?
W: None whatsoever. The quality and per for mance of our machines can stand every possible test. We agree to your conditions.
B: Do you also agree to the condition that all disputes, if unsettled, shall be referred to the For eign Trade Arbitration Commission for the Pro mo tion of In ter na tion al Trade?
W: Certainly, but I'm sure there will be no oc ca sion for arbitration.
-- 裝船期不能遲于2001年9月。
-- 沒問題。
-- 關(guān)于付款方式呢？
-- 付款采用信用證，在交貨前15到20天期間由買方開出。這些我們 都已同意了，是不是？
-- 對，是這樣。
-- 我們希望加上一條，信用證有效期應(yīng)至貨物裝船后第十五日截止。 要把所有裝船單據(jù)都準(zhǔn)備好以便提交銀行議付，有時需要一個星期 左右。定上這樣一條可以讓我們的時間充裕一點(diǎn)。
-- 行。關(guān)于商檢和索賠，有什么問題嗎？
-- 完全沒有問題。我們的機(jī)器經(jīng)得起任何質(zhì)量和性能方面的測試。我 們同意你方條款。
-- 你是否也同意這樣一條，解決不了的糾紛，就提交國際貿(mào)易促進(jìn)會 的對外貿(mào)易仲裁委員會去仲裁？
-- 可以，不過我相信根本不需要仲裁。
B: Well, then, we've agreed on all the major points.
W: Yes, Mr. Brown. We're glad the deal has come off nicely and hope there will be more to come.
B: So long as we keep to the principle of equality and mutual benefit, trade between our two countries will develop further.
W: When can the contract be ready for signature?
B: I'll have it ready in a couple of days.
W: The earlier the better. I'm leaving next week.
B: How about next Monday afternoon at 5? I'll have a copy of the contract sent to your hotel in the morning for you to look over.
W: That suits us fine.
-- 那好，主要要點(diǎn)我們都一致同意了。
-- 是的，布朗先生，我們很高興圓滿達(dá)成這項(xiàng)交易，希望以后能達(dá)成 更多的交易。
-- 只要我們堅(jiān)持平等互利的原則，我們兩國間的貿(mào)易一定會有所發(fā)展。
-- 合同什么時候能準(zhǔn)備好簽字？
-- 我會在幾天內(nèi)準(zhǔn)備好的。
-- 越早越好，我下星期離開這里。
-- 下星期一下午五點(diǎn)怎么樣？我上午會把合同送到你賓館請你過目。
-- 太好了。
Dialogue 3
A: Mrs. Miller, you are an old friend of ours. In order to encourage fu ture business and as a gesture of friendship, we are pre pared to cut our price by 5%. Will that satisfy you?
B: That's great. Thank you for making this concession. I accept.
A: Now I repeat: 5,000 transistor sets, spec i fi ca tions as shown in our catalogue at $ 20 each C.I.F. Los Angeles.
B: Good. Now that the price is decided on, we can discuss the packaging.
A: As to packaging, we'll pack them two dozens to one carton, gross weight about 25 kilos a carton.
B: Carton?
A: Yes, corrugated cardboard boxes.
B: Could you use wooden cases instead?
A: Why use wooden cases?
B: I'm afraid the cardboard boxes are not strong enough for ocean transportation.
-- 米勒女士，你都是我們的老朋友了。為了將來業(yè)務(wù)進(jìn)一步發(fā)展，也 作為友好的表示，我們準(zhǔn)備削價5%，這樣做你滿意嗎？
-- 太好了。謝謝你作出這一讓步。我接受了。
-- 現(xiàn)在我重復(fù)一下，五千臺半導(dǎo)體收音機(jī)，規(guī)格根據(jù)我方目錄所示， 每臺20美元洛杉磯到岸價。
-- 好，既然價格已定，我們可以討論一下包裝問題。
-- 關(guān)于包裝問題，我們一只紙板箱內(nèi)裝兩打，每箱毛重25公斤。
-- 是紙板箱嗎？
-- 是瓦楞形硬紙箱。
-- 你們能否改用木箱？
-- 為什么用木箱？
-- 恐怕紙板箱用于遠(yuǎn)洋運(yùn)輸不夠結(jié)實(shí)。
A: Cartons are comparatively light, and there fore easy to handle. They'll not be stowed away with the heavy cargo. Besides, we'll reinforce the cartons with metal straps.
B: All right. Carton or no carton, the packaging must be waterproof as well as strong enough to stand shock and rough handling.
A: You needn't worry about that. Cartons are extensively used in our shipments to foreign countries and there have never been complaints from our clients. Now, as regards payment, we have agreed to use dollars, am I right?
B: That's right. As soon as I get home, I'll see about the opening of the letter of credit.
A: Please open the letter of credit 15 to 30 days before the date of delivery so that we'll have enough time to make all the nec es sary arrangements. Another thing, the L/C should be val id until the 15th day after shipment.
B: No problem. That can be done. I understand you'll ship the goods before the end of May?
-- 紙板箱比較輕，便于搬運(yùn)。紙箱不會和別的笨重貨物堆放在一起 的。此外，我們會用鐵條加固紙箱的。
-- 好，不管是不是紙箱，包裝必須防水，而且必須堅(jiān)固，經(jīng)得起震動 和粗魯?shù)匕徇\(yùn)。
-- 這個你不必?fù)?dān)心。我們發(fā)往國外的貨中廣泛使用紙箱，從未聽到 過國外客戶有什么抱怨。至于付款，我們已同意使用美元，對嗎？
-- 對，我一回去就著手辦理開立信用證。
-- 請?jiān)诮回浨?5天到30天內(nèi)開立信用證，以便我方有足夠的時間作 好必要的安排。另外，信用證應(yīng)在裝船后15天內(nèi)保持有效。
-- 沒問題，可以辦到，你們將在5月底前交貨嗎？
A: Right. We'll ship the goods according to the agreed time schedule. Last, but not least, the inspection is to be carried out by Hous ton Commodities Inspection Bureau, which is final and binding on both parties.
B: Yes, we agreed to that. We have great confidence in your inspection institution. Through years of dealing with you, we've convinced of your commercial integrity.
A: Thank you. You can rest assured that we'll do ev ery thingpossible to prevent de fec tive commodities from going abroad. However, if there should be any disputes, we wish to have them settled through friendly discussions.
B: Exactly. That's what we have done in the past.
A: Well, it seems we have covered everything. We'll have thecon tract ready in a couple of days.
B: Can you speed it up and let me have it today? I'm leaving tomo- rrow. I've been here for almost a month now, you see. My corpo- ration is urging me to return. I've booked the tick et for to mor row afternoon's flight at 3: 00.
A: Let me see. If we can't get the contract ready by then, we'll send it to you by airmail for your signature.
B: That's fine too.
-- 對，我們將根據(jù)規(guī)定時間交貨。最后一點(diǎn)，但并不是最不重要 的一點(diǎn)是，商檢由休斯頓商品檢疫局執(zhí)行。其檢疫結(jié)果是最后依 據(jù)，對雙方都有約束力。
-- 是的，我們同意了這條。我們對你方商檢機(jī)構(gòu)很信任。通過多年的 和你們打交道，我們確信你們的商業(yè)信譽(yù)可靠。
-- 謝謝。你們盡可放心，我們將盡一切可能去防止次品出口；但是萬 一有爭議的話，我們希望通過友好協(xié)商來解決。
-- 正是這樣，我們過去就是這么做的。
-- 好吧，看來我們各方面都談過了。我們將在幾天內(nèi)把合同準(zhǔn)備好。
-- 能否加快點(diǎn)，讓我今天拿到，行不行？我明天回國，你知道我在這 兒呆了近一個月了。我的公司催我回去，我已經(jīng)買了明天下午三點(diǎn) 鐘的飛機(jī)票。
-- 讓我想想。如果到時合同還沒有準(zhǔn)備好，我們將航空寄給你簽字。
-- 也好。
