商务谈判对话实例(3)

　　R: How about 15% the first six months, and the second six months at 12%, with a guarantee of 3000 units? 　　D: That's a lot to sell, with very low profit margins.

　　R: It's about the best we can do, Dan. (pause) We need to hammer something out (敲定)today. If I go back empty-handed, I may be coming back to you soon to ask for a job. (smiles)

　　D: (smiles) O.K., 17% the first six months, 14% for the second?!

　　R: Good. Let's iron out(解决)the remaining details. When do you want to take delivery(取货)?

　　D: We'd like you to execute the first order by the 31st.

　　R: Let me run through this again: the first shipment for 1500 units, to be delivered in 27 days, by the 31st.

　　D: Right. We couldn't handle much larger shipments.

　　R: Fine. But I'd prefer the first shipment to be 1000 units, the next 2000. The 31st is quite soon ---- I can't guarantee 1500.

　　D: I can agree to that. Well, if there's nothing else, I think we've settled everything.

　　R: Dan, this deal promises big returns(赚大钱)for both sides. Let's hope it's the beginning of a long and prosperous relationship.
