商務(wù)會議實戰(zhàn)演練英語篇[3]
In this conversation, Oscar Davidson, the owner of a chain of retail clothing stores, is talking to Kathleen Harbrough, his financial manager, about a big deal one of his competitors has just concluded.Kathleen: Have you heard the news, Oscar? The InFashion merger with Artingdales has just been approved.
Oscar: Yeah, I heard. They've just leap-frogged ahead of us by a good margin. Our 265 shops nationwide pales in comparison to their 710. On top of that,they now have a top manufacturer as part of their operation.
Kathleen: For sure. Most analysts think that Debusy Manufacturing was the crown jewel of Artingdales.
Oscar: This really gives InFashion a huge competitive advantage over us. Do you have any news on potential acquisitions we might go after?
Kathleen: Actually, I do. You may be a little surprised at this one. I've been checking up on Clarisa Exclusives.
Oscar: Clarisa! They've never shown any interest whatsoever in a merger, and they would probably never agree to an acquisition.
Kathleen: I know, but the time might be right for a takeover.It's not a well-known fact, but their finances are in poor shape. Actually, they could turn out to be a Sleeping Beauty. I think their assets are highly undervalued in the industry.
Oscar: Wow, that would surely put us back in the thick of things. OK, Kathleen, give me a report on the finances involved as soon as you can. Let's go after them!

Kathleen: 嘿,Oscar, 你聽說了嗎?InFashion和Artingdales已經(jīng)成功合并了。
Oscar: 我聽說啦。他們已經(jīng)大步向前,把我們遠遠甩在后面了。你看,全國范圍內(nèi),我們只有265家店,而他們卻有710家。另外,現(xiàn)在還有一個頂尖的制造商加入了他們的行列
Kathleen: 的確如此。大多數(shù)分析家都認為Debusy制造公司是Arlingdales最具實力的拳頭部門。
Oscar: 這無疑給Infashion增加了不少競爭砝碼,而我們已處于劣勢了。對了,對于我們下一步的收購計劃你有什么目標(biāo)嗎?
Kathleen: 當(dāng)然;蛟S你會有些意外,但我現(xiàn)在確實在關(guān)注Clarisa專賣店。
