Leon and Amy:
前几天我去广州参展了,昨晚回来。今天有点累,简单介绍一下展会方面的英语,以后应该还会有相关内容补充的。
展会,Exhibition, fair, trade show. 参加,attend, join.
你会参加十月份的广交会吗?Would you attend the Canton fair at October?
是的,我们会参加。Yes, we are going to be there.
在展会上遇到新的客户,我们一般会问客户是来自哪个国家的。Where are you from?
昨天有个客户的美式英语口音很重,我问他是不是来自美国。Are you from USA? Yes, I am from a small country, America.是的,我来自一个小国家,美国。(美国人都比较幽默)
在展会上,客户问的最多的问题是价格。What is the price? Give your best price. Price, price, price.价格是多少?给我最好的价格。价格,价格,价格!
然后我会他需要多少数量。How many pieces do you need?或者Can you tell me the quantity?
印度客户一般就会回答:Many, many, big order. 1 container each month.要很多很多数量,大订单。每个月一个柜那么多。然后我们往往会知道这是bullshit,他只是随便说说而已。
很多客户会说我们的价格太高了,他平时都是从其他工厂拿货的。Your prices are too high, I ordered to other factories.
有的客户会说目标价格,问我们能不能做。My target price is 1.9 USD, can you do that? Go ask your boss.我的目标价是1.9美元,你们可以做吗?快去问问你们老板。
有的客户可能想去我们工厂看看,会问工厂在哪里。Where is your factory? How far is from Guangzhou? 工厂在哪里,离广州有多远?
然后我们会说工厂在金利,从广州开车过去一个小时就到了。Our factory is at JinLi town, 1 hour driving from Guangzhou.
有的客户会说去工厂看看,聊聊他的订单。I want to visit your factory, and talk about my order.
客户可能会说住在XX酒店,让我们的司机明天去接他到工厂。I am living at XX hotel, ask your driver to pick me up tomorrow morning.
有的客户会呆在中国一个星期,然后就回国了。I would stay in China for one week, then go back to my country.
和你聊得很高兴,明天再见。Nice talking to you, see you tomorrow.
下课了,明天见。
