[00:05.72]Is there any possibility for you to ensure prompt shipment?
你方有无可能即期装运?
[00:09.73]I'm afraid not. Our manufactures are fully committed at the moment.

[00:14.39]I can't give you a check that I know will bounce.
我不能给你一张肯定被银行退票的支票。
[00:17.86]That will be too late. You know, Christmas is coming;

[00:22.87]we want the goods on the market before the ends of November to catch up with Christmas sales.

[00:35.81]The best we can do is to effect shipment at the end of November.
我们能做的就是11月底装运。
[00:40.24]Let me put it this way. We've agreed to conclude the deal on a FOB basis.
我这样说吧，我方同意按船上交货价达成交易，
[00:47.65]Even if you deliver the goods at the end of November, 即使你方11月底交货，
[00:51.47]we still have to go through the customs and this will take us about 2 weeks.
我方还需过关，这将花两个星期的时间。

[01:00.02]everything will be fine and we will be able to make it.
一切都会好的，我方将能赶上销售旺季。
[01:03.17]Well, as this is the first transaction, I think we can make a deal.
好吧，因为这是第一笔生意，
[01:08.18]I'll get in touch with the manufacturer and ask them to try their best to advance the shipment to middle of November.
我希望我们能达成交易。我将与厂家取得联系，请他们尽最大努力于11月中旬交货。
[01:15.98]Perhaps some other orders will be canceled. We'll keep you informed.
也许一些其它的订单将被取消。我们将与你方保持联系。
[01:20.24]That's very kind of you. I'm looking forward to receiving your advice of shipment as early as possible.
