Woman:Can we discuss these operational changes that you're putting in place in the factory, Sam?
薩姆，我們能討論一下你在工廠的作業流程變更嗎？
It's going to be an enormous change, isn't it? But I think it's the right thing to do.
這將是一個巨大的變化，不是嗎？但是我認為這個決定是正確的。
Man:Yes, Julia ... I think the operational side is critical because we have to look at what can be achieved by investing in new machinery and introducing Just-in-Time systems.
是的，茱莉亞……我認為運營方面至關重要，因為我們必須通過投資新機器和引進準時制系統可以實現什么。
It's all about making and selling things better and more cheaply than the opposition.
這一切都是為了更好地生產和銷售，而且價格比我們的競爭對手低。
If we put ourselves in that position, then whether we decide to sell directly or through outlets,
如果設身處地地想一下，無論是決定直接銷售還是通過銷售點代售，
it will allow us to make substantial inroads into our competitors, customer base.
對我們的競爭對手和客戶來說，這是一項實質性的進展
The end result of the change may be that we have to lose some of the manufacturing staff, but it shouldn't be too bad.
這一改變的最終結果可能是，我們不得不丟失一些制造業員工，但應該不會太糟糕。
And we're building for our stake in the future.
我們是從長遠的角度考慮。
Woman:Well, yes-you're right-we do have to look ahead.
是的，你說的對，我們必須向前看。
If you look at the way that the business is going, you can see what customers, needs are going to be over the next few years.
如果你看到這個行業的發展方向，你就知道未來幾年客戶的需求是什么。
It used to be all about cost and being very price conscious, putting that across to the customer in a straightforward way.
過去我們關注的都是成本和價格，以一種直接的方式向客戶傳達。
Now though, we've got to look at ways of making manufacturing more versatile, and react instantly to demand,
但現在，我們必須考慮如何使生產更加多樣化，并立即對需求作出反應，
rather than just churning out a huge range of goods and having them sitting on the shelves.
而不僅僅是生產大量的商品，然后把它們擺在貨架上。
