C: Corey M: Marian
Corey and Marian are taking notes about ideas they have for the trade fair.
C: How can we catch potential investors’ attention?
M: How about we hire a speaker to give a speech to promote our company?
C: Sure. But that will be expensive. I thought you were worried about losing money.
M: Of course, I don’t want to lose money. But if we’re already investing so much in this trade fair, what’s a little more?
C: You’ve surprised me again. All right. Let’s do that. I’m sure we’ll be able to strike a lot of great business deals then.
柯瑞和玛丽安正在记录他们对贸易展的想法。
柯 瑞: 我们要如何才能吸引潜在投资者的注意呢?
玛丽安: 我们聘请一位讲者来演讲以宣传我们的公司怎么样?
柯 瑞: 好啊。但那会很昂贵。我以为妳担心赔钱。
玛丽安: 我当然不想赔钱。但是,如果我们已经在这个贸易展上投入了这么多,再多花点钱又何妨?
柯 瑞: 妳又让我吃惊了。好的。我们这样做吧。我相信到时候我们能够达成很多不错的交易的。
玛丽安: 我也是。我现在感到非常有希望。谢谢你说服我这样做。
