Conversation Two
对话二
Good evening and welcome to this week's Business World, a program for and about business people.
晚上好!欢迎大家来到商业世界,本节目为各位商业人士介绍商业人物。
Tonight we have Mr. Angeleno who came to the United States six years ago, and is now an established businessman with three restaurants in town. Tell us, Mr. Angeleno, how did you get started?
今晚我们有幸邀请到六年前来美国的安哥诺先生,一个已经成功拥有三家餐馆的成功商人。安哥诺先生,请您介绍一下您是如何起家的?
Well, I started off with a small diner. I did all the cooking myself and my wife waited on tables. It was really too much work for two people.
好,我开始有一个小饭店。所有的烹饪都是我做,我的妻子侍候用餐。两个人要做的工作太多了。
My cooking is great. And word got around town about the food. Within a year, I had to hire another cook and four waitresses.
我的厨艺很棒,这个消息传遍了小镇。一年内,我雇佣了一位厨师和四位服务员。
When that restaurant became very busy, I decided to expand my business. Now with three places my main concern is keeping the business successful and running smoothly.
当餐馆开始很忙碌的时候,我决定扩大我的生意。现在我有三个餐馆,我主要关心的是保持商业的成功并顺利的运行好它们。
Do you advertise?
你做广告吗?
Oh yes. I don't have any TV commercials, because they are too expensive. But I advertise a lot on radio and in local newspapers. My children used to distribute ads in nearby shopping centers, but we don't need to do that any more.
当然,我没有做过任何电视广告,因为他们太贵。但我在电台和当地的报纸上发了不少广告。我的孩子们曾经在附近的商业中心分发广告,但是我们不需要这么做了。
Why do you believe you've been so successful?
为什么你认为自己会成功?
Um, I always serve the freshest possible food and I make the atmosphere as comfortable and as pleasant as I can, so that my customers will want to come back.
我提供最新鲜的食物,努力让餐馆的气氛变得舒适和愉快,让自己有回头客。
So you always aim to please the customers?
所以你一贯的宗旨是让顾客满意?
Absolutely! Without them I would have no business at all.
当然!没有他们,我就没有任何业务。
Thank you, Mr. Angeleno. I think your advice will be helpful to those just staring out in business.
