Unit 14a Business Negotiation商业洽谈2.1Listen to an extract from a negotiation.KN=Kate Nelligan from Sophmore Electronics(SE),PB = Pete Boardman from Northern Component(NC)KN: Yes. Shall we turn now to the actual terms?PB: Certainly. Well, we've already discussed price in some detail. I suppose you'd be interested in delivery?KN: Yes, we would. It's critical to meeting our deadlines, as you can imagine.PB: Sure. What sort of delivery periods did you have in mind?KN: Well, you've seen the order quantities, what do you think you could manage?PB: Well, on the AX2000 components, we could certainly...KN: No, I didn't mean on the individual orders. What about the whole consignment, on a monthly basis?PB: Well, I reckon... we could manage 15 days from confirmed order. But as I say, I'd have to get back to you to confirm that.KN: That's at your quoted price?PB: Um... well, actually we quoted for those batch by batch. We hadn't realized you'd be thinking of ordering the whole lot.KN: I see, So I suppose we'd be looking at a reduction for bulk orders.PB: Look, I'm sorry, Miss Nelligan. To be perfectly frank, you've caught me on the hop here.Would you mind waiting while I speak to Geoff on the phone?KN: No,of course not ... Did you get through OK?PB: Yes, I did. I apologize for keeping you waiting. Anyway, we can now talk more concretely about delivery terms.KN: Good.PB: We can deliver the whole consignment in 15 days at the prices already quoted. This would mean dispatch from our premises...KN: I'm surprised you're not prepared to offer some sort of bulk discount considering the size of the order.PB: Well, I'm sure you understand that meeting this sort of order will mean quite a lot of overtime.It would be very difficult to come down on the price.KN: But we are offering you a large amount of regular business.PB: That's true. Would you be willing to sign an annual contract on the basis we discussed?KN: Um, possibly, subject to quality and delivery guarantees.PB: Of course. Well, in that case we could offer a 5% discount for a confirmed monthly order for the next 12 months.KN: I was hoping for something a bit more substantial.PB: I'm afraid that's as far as we could go. We've already stretched ourselves to the limit.KN: Right, Mr Boardman. May I suggest we sign a 6-months' contract at a 5% discount on your quoted prices and then we'll meet again to see if we can reduce the prices further.PB: You're a tough negotiator. OK. Let's shake on that and draw up the details of the first contract...2.2You will hear part of a telephone negotiation about a sale of yogurt between a salesperson anda buyer. Note down your answers to these questions:Listen to a telephone negotiation between a salesperson and a buyer.I=Irena; J=JanI: Let us talk about the yogurt deliveries for Central European market and the North European market.J: Yes, sure.I: Is that OK?J: Yeah, you know for the North European market I can deliver the yogurt fairly quickly.I: The North European area is not going to be a problem. I have approval. But I need to know about the Central European area.J: Yes.I: I am sure we can do a good job.J: Yeah, but you will have to give me some idea about amount or quantities, because that way it is easier to get it through our organization, you know. They need time sometimes, but if they know something about quantity, they'll be more interested.I: Well, I can't say exactly. They depend on price and quality.J: Oh, yes of course.I: If you like, I'll send you a fax and I shall be very open.J: ER...yes.I: I can put in writing to you in quantity terms, that we can take two thousand depending on the price and quality. If your quality is not good and your prices are not competitive, then that'll be the end of our business.J: Sure, of course. I understand. But if the quantity is interesting, I am sure our organization...I: In that case.J: Mrs Eichelberger... I'm sure we can be flexible, because we need, want, figures or quantities.I: I, that is, we are not talking less than one thousand tons...J: Good.I: I am ready to say even a minimum of one thousand tons.J: Yes, good.I: But what if the matter is pushed through quickly? Will everything be OK?J: Yes, of course.I: Perhaps things will move too fast for you and then maybe we'll find that the prices you are quoting us are much too high and the quality is not good and then...J: And then you will have to tell us.I: Yes, then maybe we will stop the order, I tell you, because of that.J: Yes, I see.I: And so can't you let us have one thousand tons now?J: That might not be easy, because ...I: You don't want to do it, that's all.J: It depends, you see.I: OK, then we'll give you time to decide.

We are flexible and we can do that.F: In that case, Marianne...M: And if the quantity is interesting, I am sure that we can do business. But I must stress, we do require firm figures or quantities, I mean especially if you want a discount, Fritz.F: Well, I am not talking less than one hundred tons.M: That's good. We'll give you a good price on that.F: If we order immediately two hundred in total, then can I expect a discount?M: If the order is made, yes, that's not going to be a problem.F: One more thing, the condition of the product must be perfect, A1 quality. Otherwise we can't do business.M: Of course, naturally, but you know, we only deliver perfect A1 condition. We do have a good reputation, you know.F: But, if we find that the prices you are quoting us are much too high and the quality is not good, Marianne, then we...M: Then, then you must tell us, Fritz.F: But we are trusting your organization.M: I think you will see our lavender is guaranteed A1.F: If there's a guarantee, then we are prepared to take two hundred tons.M: OK. That's good, Fritz, we can give you a 5% discount, then on the total.F: But last time we received 7%. Why so little now, Marianne?M: Ah, well, I'm sorry. But that was on a larger quantity, you see, and this is just two hundred tons. F: Look, I'll sign for two hundred and fifty tons and you give me a 6% discount, what do you say, Marianne?M: OK.

As the sales director of China Import and Export Textile Company, I am responsible for responding to the product inquiry and making the initial price quotation. Recent years we have made a lot of deals with foreign companies. These companies have found that our products are popular in the market and the prices we quoted are reasonable. Therefore our business partners are increasing. In this case, we need to develop more favorable conditions. In our negotiation, discount is the buzzword. People talk about discount frequently. As our general guideline, we do not offer discount in our trade. However, in order to promote business, we offer discount to our business partners. In this way, we have gained much more trade opportunities.

quotast of Insurance and Freight 到岸价格
FOB, CIF, and CFR are terms which relate to the delivery of goods and they affect the prices of those goods. FOB means Free On Board. This means that the goods will be delivered to the buyer at the point that the goods pass the ship’s rail. Obviously, this means the quotation only includes all the expenses incurred before goods are packed up into their containers. CIF means Cost, Insurance, and Freight. This means that the seller is providing a price which includes the cost of the goods, the insurance of the goods for their journey to their destination, and the other method of freight being used to transport the goods to the buyer. Therefore, delivery of the goods, with CIF quotation, will usually take place at the port of unloading. CFR is sometimes called C& F. This means Cost and Freight, and this quotation includes the costs of the goods and of the freight, but not of insurance. Therefore CFR is similar to CIF but it does not include insurance of the goods on their journey to the buyer.

信用证是19世纪发生的一次国际贸易支付方式上的革命, 这种支付方式首次使不在交货现场的买卖双方在履行合同时处于 同等地位,在一定程度上使他们重新找回了“一手交钱,一手交 货”的现场交易所具有的安全感,解决了双方互不信任的矛盾。 我们知道,采用汇付进行预期付款,是买方处于不利地位,而采 用汇付进行迟期付款则是卖方处于不利地位,而采用托收方式, 即使是即期交单付款方式,对卖方来说,也是一种迟期付款。因 为,卖方必须在装运后,才能获得全套收款的单据。一旦买方拒 付货款,即使货物的所有权还在卖方手里,卖方的损失还是难以 避免的。

见票给付的保兑信用证
为了使买卖双方都处于同等地位,人们发明了信用证支付方 式,由银行出面担保,只要卖方按合同规定交货,就可拿到货款, 而买方又无须在卖方履行合同规定的交货义务前支付货款。信用 证是有条件的银行担保,是银行(开证行)应买方(申请人)的 要求和指示保证立即或将来某一时间内付给卖方(受益人)一笔 款项。卖方(受益人)得到这笔钱的条件是向银行(议付行)提 交信用证中规定的单据。例如:商业、运输、保险、政府和其他 用途的单据。
