Paul: I'm sure you will when I tell you about my ideas, Anyway you can always cool off with a swim later.
当我告诉你的我的想法时我就相信你会的，无论如何，一会儿，你可以随时游泳凉快一下。
Chris:Yes. jolly good idea, you know, I must say I was pleased to hear from you, but from what you said on the phone, everything is so sudden, so immediate...
是的。非常不错的好主意，你知道，我必须说，我很高兴接到你的电话，但从你在电话上说的，一切都是如此突然，如此迅速。
Paul: Well, Tom, my father in law, who as you know is also the Managing director of Jayal Motors, well, he's given me 2 weeks to prepare a feasibility study on the possibility of moving into the export market.
因为，汤姆，我的岳父，你知道他也是贾亚尔摩托公司的总经理，而他给我2个星期准备一个进入出口市场可能性的可行性研究。
Chris: Ah now, just one thing Paul, have you really thought the whole idea through?
噢，保罗，现在只有一件事，你真的认真思考过你的计划吗？
Paul: Of course I have, You don't think I would have just ...
当然，我认真思考过，你不会认为我只是...
Chris: It's all right, All right Paul. I'm not against the idea, Several small firms have successfully exported to Industria.
没关系，保罗。我不反对这个想法，几家小公司已成功出口到Industria了。
Paul: Well?
那么？
Chris: Now the key thing in the whole operation is to get a good import agent, Let me have a look at those papers you said you had, ...I see ... and you say the bank will help?
现在，在整个操作中的关键是找到一个良好的进口代理商，让我看看你说你已经有的文件，我看到...你说银行会帮助？
Paul: I'm almost sure of it.
我几乎可以肯定。
Chris: Preliminary studies are all very well, Paul,but if the product can't sell, then there's little use in expanding the factory.
初步的研究都很好，保罗，但如果产品卖不出去，那么扩大工厂也是没有什么用的
Paul:Yes I realize that, Christopher, but we have very good product, The chief designer has just completed a new improved model.
是的，我意识到了这一点，克里斯托弗，但我们有非常好的产品，首席设计师刚刚完成了一个新的改进后的产品。
Chris:I know your bikes have a very good reputation here ... but you have to build up a reputationand a market in Industria.
我知道你的摩托车在这里有一个很好的声誉...但你必须在 Industria 建在立声誉和一个市场。
Paul:Yes of course, of course, but the immediate problem is that Tom wants a definitive report by next Monday, Two weeks isn't enough time to prepare a report.
当然，当然，但目前的问题是，汤姆想要下一个星期一的确认报告，两个星期的时间是不够准备一个报告的。
Chris: Two weeks! It is a bit short. However, he is the Managing Director as you said, Paul.
两个星期！这确实有点短。然而，正像你说的，他是总经理啊，保罗。
Paul: Right, and the board has to be united before I can take the project any further, So I need your help ... the expertise of the Export Development Office.
是的，董事会必须统一意见，我才能把该项目进行进一步，所以我需要你们出口发展办公室的帮助.
Chris:Ok Paul. you've convinced me, I must say I admire your determination ... You know I often wish I'd stayed in business.
好吧保罗。你说服了我，我必须说，我欣赏你的决心...你知道，我经常希望我会留在商业圈。
Paul: Right! Any ideas then?
对！那么有任何想法？
Chris: Well yes, Now first of all we could write to a list of agents the Export Development Office has one its books, but that will take time ... I could E-mail the Commerical Attache at the Embassy in Centreville .. Carl Sindon, Do you know him?
是的，现在首先，我们出口发展办公室有的一本书，在这本书里有进口商代理人的名单。我们给这些代理写开发信，但这将需要时间...我可以通过给在森翠威尔的大使馆的商务参赞写电子邮件，参赞是卡尔·辛顿， 你认识他吗？
Paul: No,no.
不，不认识。
Chris: No, well he is new to the job. Now let me think ... I know. The best way and the quickest would be for Jayal Motors to exhibit at the Trade Fair next month in Industria.
不认识，不过，他是新来工作的。现在让我想想...我知道。最好的方式和最快的是贾亚尔摩托参展将在下月在Industria展出的展会。
Paul:Next month? A Trade Fair in Industria? You move faster than I do.Christopher!
下个月？工业贸易展览会？克里斯托弗，你比我速度更快！
Chris:No. wait a minute Paul. wait a minute, Most of the stands have already been booked and anyway it would be difficult to get everything ready on time- shipping the bikes, advertising, publicity, Do you think you could do it. Paul?
不，等一分钟，保罗。等待一分钟，大部分的展位已经预订，反正很难在按时把一切准备好 - 摩托车的运输，广告，宣传，你认为你可以做到吗。保罗？
Paul: I'm not sure ... what about the overall costs?
我不知道...总成本怎么样？
Chris: Well, the EDO does makes a contribution to the exhibition costs, but I don't know if ...
尽管，出口开发办公室确实对展览费用做出计算，但我不知道是否...
Paul: Don't move Christopher, I'll be back in a minute, I want to make a call...
克里斯托弗在这儿等着我，我会在一分钟后回来，我想打个电话..
Paul: Ok Chris. That's settled then. You get us a stand in the Trade Fair and we'll get the bikes there on time!
好克里斯。那就这么定了。你在贸易展览会上给我们一个展位，我们将按时把我们的摩托车运到那儿。

你确定？
Paul: Of course I'm sure! And I want you to come to the board meeting next Monday.
当然，我确定！而且， 我想让你下周一来参加董事会会议。
Chris:Ah! Well, that won't be possible. Now, I'll be able to come down later,but not next week.
啊! 但是，这是不可能的。这周，晚些时候，我可以去，但是下周不行。
Paul: Oh dear.
噢，我的天啊！
Chris:How about my studying the problem first and submitting my proposals on paper?
这样吧，我先研究这个问题，然后以书面文件的形式提交我的建议。
Paul: That's fine, fine, And then we can use the expertise of the EDO as the voice of authority.
这很好，很好，然后我们可以使用出口开发办公室专家作为权威的声音
