Tom, could you let go of my hand? Sorry, it's just I get nervous(神经紧张的) flying. Well, we've landed(降落(或跳落、跌落)到地面(或水面上)) in Marseille(马赛(法国港口城市)) now, so you're safe(安全的). Oh, I like your passport photo. Oh, do you? I didn't know your middle(中部的) name was Stanley.
Yep, after my great-great-grandfather. Really? Come on, we need to get a taxi. Taxi! Taxi! Hello again.
Anna and Tom are on a very important business trip to try and sign(签署) a deal(买卖) to sell their plastic(塑料的) fruit to a company in France. The company has received(收到) a better offer(提供), so Anna needs to convince(使确信) them that tip(小费 v.给....小费)-top( 顶部) trading's lemons are best. Are you feeling confident(确信的), Anna? Not really. It was OK speaking to them on the phone, but seeing them face-to-face is quite scary(吓人的). You'll be fine.
Stay calm(静的). They'll be pleased(开心的) you've taken the time to fly out and see them, but tell them you're grateful(感激的) for their time and recap what you told them on the phone. Oh, yes. Beat((beat) 打败) the price of the competitor(竞争者), but get them to make a bigger order. Yes, and if they order more, you can offer a bigger discount(折扣). Good luck(运气)!
Oh, look, we're here now. Now, Anna, I hope you don't mind(介意) me saying, but just leave the talk( 谈话) in to me, all( 全部) right? Well... Oh, Madame((法语)夫人) Brown, ciao. Great to see you. A what?
Monsieur Brown. Bonjour. I'm Anna from Tip-Top Trading.
