Purchase patents 購買專利 A: We'd like you to provide us with equipment.
我們想要你們給我們提供設備。
B: I am afraid that we can't. Production costs have risen a great deal and we are now losing money. However, we're quite willing to transfer the patent.
恐怕不行。因為生產成本已上漲了很多，我公司正在虧損。不過，我們愿意轉讓專利。
A: Well, it seems that we'll only consider buying the patent. In what form will you transfer the patent?
哦，看來我們只能考慮買專利了。你們將以什么形式轉讓專利？
B: We'd like to transfer the right to use the patent in the form of license.
我們想以許可證的形式轉讓專利使用權。
A: But the license only gives one the right to manufacture the equipment. What about the technology not included in the patent?
但許可證只給了制造設備的權利，不包括專利中的技術，這將如何辦？
B: Don't worry. We'll provide you with all the information and also five technicians needed to manufacture the equipment.
不用擔心，我們會給你們提供制造設備所需要的所有資料，還有五名技術人員。
A: OK, how long will you allow us to use the patent?
好，那你們允許我方使用專利多久？
B: 5 years.
五年。
A: Well, how much will you ask?
你們要價多少？
B: We hope you will pay us 50,000$.
我們希望你們付50,000美金。
A: I am afraid we can not accept that. We hope you can reduce by 1%.
恐怕我們不能接受這個價格。我們希望你們能降低1%。
B: OK.
好吧。
A: I am glad we've come to an agreement on price. We'll go on to the other terms and conditions at our next meeting.
很高興我們在價格上達成協議。下次見面，我們再研究其他條款。
B: All right.
好的。
“come to an agreement on”是“就……達成協議”的意思。例如：They came to an agreement on the terms of insurance. （他們就保險條款達成了協議。）
