Dialogue 2 Discuss over Transshipment Mr. Blake: Could you make the shipment in early November? Mr. Chen: We have the goods in stock now; therefore we could ship the goods
soon. (3)Couldn't you make it eight weeks instead of ten? That would
give us enough time to assemble the machine and meet the deadline set by our customer. (4)I don't think we can meet the delivery date you suggest. (5)Couldn't you extend the delivery period by two weeks or so? That would make things much easier for us.

(6)I think we could bring the date forward by a week or so. But I'd have to check with Headquarters before I can give you a firm promise.
(7) Our customer requests the shipment be made in three equal lots(批), each every two months.

Which transport is the best method under emergency or urgent circumstances?
By air.
What types of transport of goods had the effect of encouraging the use of the “container”?
Transport of goods by rail and steamer.
What are included in the terms of shipment?
Mr. Chen: Well, you are really asking us for something that is very difficult. I’ve offered you seven weeks. I’ll have to consult with my colleagues, but I can’t promise what we can do.

Dialogue
Mr. Chen: Well, you want the goods within five weeks. It is really a very short deadline in this business.
Mr. Blake: In that case, couldn’t your engineers find a way to re-schedule just a little, say one more week?
deliver more promptly? Mr. Blake: We need delivery of five weeks maximum, with four weeks for installation. Mr. Chen: I understand what you mean, but that would be very difficult. You see we
have a lot of orders to handle at present. Look, if I can promise you the delivery in seven weeks, is it OK? Mr. Blake: I’m afraid we can’t accept seven weeks. You’ll have to do better than that. We can’t wait for so long.
Terms of shipment include methods of transport, time for shipment, partial shipment and transshipment, port or place of loading and unloading, shipping documents, etc.
(10)The goods are transshipped at Copenhagen and are expected to reach your port in early September.

promptly if there were a steamer available. But unfortunately we cannot get hold of any liner sailing for New York in November, because the shipping space for sailing to New York in November has all been booked up. Mr. Blake: You know the time of shipment is very important to us. Our customers are in urgent need of the goods. Mr. Chen: I see your point. However, I’m very sorry that we can do nothing about it. Mr. Blake: But I’m informed that tramps are still available. Mr. Chen: Yes, but tramps are scarce. And I’m not sure there would be enough tonnage to make a full cargo, even if a tramp could be obtained. Mr. Blake: Then, What if we allow transshipment?
