这里是是一段有关商场过招的金融 英语 口语。下面来介绍一下场景:Dan Smith是一位美国的健身用品经销商,此次是Robert Liu第一回与他交手。就在短短几分钟的交谈中,Robert Liu既感到这位大汉粗犷的外表,藏有狡兔的心思――他肯定是沙场老将,自己绝不可掉以轻心。双方第一回过招如下:

D Id like to get the ball rolling(开始)by talking about prices.

R Shoot.(洗耳恭听)Id be happy to answer any questions you may have.

D Your products are very good. But Im a little worried about the prices youre asking. R You think we about be asking for more?(laughs)

D (chuckles莞尔) Thats not exactly what I had in mind. I know your research costs are high, but what Id like is a 25% discount.

R That seems to be a little high, Mr. Smith. I dont know how we can make a profit with those numbers.

D Please, Robert, call me Dan. (pause) Well, if we promise future business――volume sales(大笔交易)――that will slash your costs(大量减低成本)for making the Exec-U-ciser, right? R Yes, but its hard to see how you can place such large orders. How could you turn over(销磬)so many? (pause) Wed need a guarantee of future business, not just a promise.

D We said we wanted 1000 pieces over a six-month period. What if we place orders for twelve months, with a guarantee?

R If you can guarantee that on paper, I think we can discuss this further.

Robert回公司呈报Dan的提案后,老板很满意对方的采购计划;但在折扣方面则希望Robert能继续维持强硬的态度,尽量探出对方的底线。就在这七上七八的价格翘翘板上,方是否能找到彼此地平衡点呢?请看下面分解:

R Even with volume sales, our coats for the Exec-U-Ciser wont go down much. D Just what are you proposing?

R We could take a cut(降低)on the price. But 25% would slash our profit margin(毛利率)We suggest a compromise――10%.

D Thats a big change from 25! 10 is beyond my negotiating limit. (pause) Any other ideas?

R I dont think I can change it right now. Why dont we talk again tomorrow?

D Sure. I must talk to my office anyway. I hope we can find some common ground(共同信)on this.

NEXT DAY D Robert, Ive been instructed to reject the numbers you proposed; but we can try to come up with some thing else.

R I hope so, Dan. My instructions are to negotiate hard on this deal――but Im try very hard to reach some middle ground(互相妥协)

D I understand. We propose a structured deal(阶段式和约) For the first six months, we get a discount of 20%, and the next six months we get 15%.

R Dan, I cant bring those numbers back to my office――theyll turn it down flat(打回


)

D Then youll have to think of something better, Robert.
