目 录 下一节  
   成立公司    Wendy:  Let's review our start-up plans. When do you think we will be able to move into our new office?    温蒂:  我们再看一遍我们的初步计画。你想什么时候我们可以搬进新的办公室?    Lester:  Well, we can move in any time after July first, but moving in and actually getting started are two different things.    莱司特:  七月一号之后我们随时可以搬进去,不过搬进去和实际开始工作是两回事。    Wendy:  Good point. Anyway, I have our new marketing manager, Helen Parker, helping us get set up.    温蒂:  说得好。无论如何,我会要我们新任的市场经理,海伦?派克帮忙我们打点一切。    Lester:  What is she doing?    莱司特:  她是做什么的?  
   温蒂:  她监督机器设备的采购等等。    Lester:  Does she have a background in that sort of thing?    莱司特:  她有那方面的背景吗?    Wendy:  As a matter of fact, it turns out she practically ran her last company, from marketing to finance.    温蒂:  事实上,她上一个公司从行销到财务,实际上都是她在运作的。    Lester:  I'm looking forward to meeting her.    莱司特:  我期待认识她。    Wendy:  Have you begun to investigate factories? I'm so glad we aren't going to try to run our own factory at first.    温蒂:  你开始调查工厂了吗?我很高兴我们没有先试图设立自己的工厂。  
   莱司特:  是的,开始了。我也替研发部门找了些好人才。然后有一些美术人员设计我们的商标--    Wendy:  Oh, no! Millions of details: logos, slogans, letterhead, name cards . . .    温蒂:  噢,天哪!有好多的细节:商标,标语,信头,名片……    Lester:  You thought setting up a company was going to be easy?    莱司特:  你觉得创立一间公司会容易吗?
