dialogue to mr.
A : do you have time now
yes
do you remember the agent we met last time
sure what's wrong
we had a long meeting this Monday. he has agreed to the items of the draft
agreements we apply
that's good

yes I think so. he's got a lot of experience
okay when is your next meeting with him
we're meeting him this Wednesday just to sort out some final details
fine let me know what happens
of course make everything clearly and then we will decide the time of the
signing ceremony
I see
6.54
excuse me manager what's up Phillip I have a proposal to increase our sales do
7.02
you have any particular plan we should increase our expenditure on
advertising
7.09
through advertisements we can make our products well known to everyone I
see
7.16
what you mean the conditions at present make worthwhile the expense of
advertising so
7.24
I suggest allowing advertisement department a subsidy of 10000 UN for
7.32
strengthening our publicity good idea could you write down your proposal to a
7.38
report sure dialogue to
7.48
in my opinion we are going to have a problem about the budget how is the
7.55
problem according to the factory it will cost about 30 percent more than
8.01
initially projected it is said that we underestimated the cost but if sales go
8.08
as well as they should that's still well within our profit margin what do you
8.15
mean in other word proceeds from the sales of the first order will easily
8.22
cover the cost of the second order I see we only need a budget increase for
8.29
the first order exactly we must report it to the financial officer because all
8.36
budget decisions must be approved by him
8.41

may I go over the sheet right now sure take your time I think your prices are
28.17
much too high you know that the cost of production has been skyrocketing in
28.22
recent years honestly speaking we've consulted the prices from other
28.27
companies we only ask that your prices be comparable to others well we can
28.34
consider making some concessions in our prices how much do you mean then
to get the
28.40
business done we can reduce our prices by 5% I see I will call my home office
28.46
and see what they say [Music]
28.53
dialogue to I believe you've got our price list are you interested in our product
your
29.02
products are good but the price is high I think our price is very favorable you
29.08
can hardly get such an attractive price from other suppliers it would be
impossible for us to push any sales at
29.14
such a price what's your proposal can you give me a rough idea the reduction
29.21
is at least 10 percent 10 percent is impossible that leaves us almost no profit
but the
29.28
order is a large one you could get profit the reduction is 8 percent at
29.34
most if that's the case I'll have to go somewhere else
29.43
discussing payments [Music]
29.51
dialogue 1 let's start out to discuss the question of payment terms when we
deal with a new

customer we insist on payment by LC to open a LC will add to the cost of our
30.05
products however as you know payment by LC is the safest method you are
the new
30.13
customer of ours so can you be a bit more flexible and bend the rule a little
30.19

30.58
the advance payment necessary yes it is the advance payment is 20% before

James we've received your Notice of Claim that's why I came to discuss the
matter with you in person the present
34.11
case is too serious to be overlooked so we feel we have to file a claim on you
34.17
let's examine the details first you complained that about 30 percent of the
34.23
goods were found damaged yes upon its arrival at our port they were
34.28
immediately examined carefully we were very surprised to find that 60 cases of
34.34
goods were damaged before I left I checked up on the condition of the
34.39
shipment and found nothing in our record indicating any damage did you find
any
34.44
other reasons it is estimated that careless handling while being loaded on to
the ship caused the damage we suggest
34.52
that the total value of the parcel should be reduced by 30% in that you
34.58
should give us an allowance well we shall send you a letter confirming that
while I appreciate your attitude towards
35.05
this case and hope everything will be smooth in the future business

to redo it redo it why it's not very
1.00.48
good but I really don't see the value in doing this entire project over from

scratch it would take a lot of work that's certainly true but that's what
1.00.59
this job is all about Kelly there's no doubt that this project is unacceptable

I agree but I think that we can handle the problem by making a few major
changes

panel discussion [Music]
1.03.15
dialogue 1 good morning everyone the main thing I
1.03.21
want to discuss today is how to solve the problem of redundancy what are
your
1.03.26
opinions I think the best course of action would be to reorganize the
1.03.32
company and streamline the workforce but the problem with the solution is
that it
1.03.38
would make a strong impact only by this way can employees perform
efficiently
1.03.45
and enthusiastically and thus make our company prosper how do you deal with
1.03.51
those who will be laid off we could provide them with a fair compensation
1.03.57
package you do have a point I suggest we put this issue on the vote I go along
1.04.05
with that all those in favor raise your hand [Music]
