Woman: Do you only use your own designers or do you ever look for new ideas, for example by using well-known artists on a freelance basis?
女:你们是只使用自己的设计师呢,还是一直在寻找新的创意,比如在自由职业的基础上使用知名艺术家?
Man: We certainly do look for ideas outside the company, but not from freelancers our work's too secret for that. It's a very competitive market. We're even competing with the in-house R&D teams of our client companies! However; just now, we're working with scientists at a university to develop an even better system for designing products through the latest computer and video systems.
男:我们当然是在公司之外寻找创意,但不是从自由职业者那里。因为我们的工作需要保密。这是一个竞争非常激烈的市场。我们甚至要与我们的客户公司内部的设计团队竞争!然而;现在,我们正与一所高校的科学家们利用最新的计算机和视频系统合作,开发一个更好的系统以设计产品。
Woman: What do you think it is that your customers value most about you? Is it just the fact that you use the latest technology?
女:你认为你的客户最看重你们的哪一点?是因为你们使用了最新的技术吗?
Man: Well, not that alone. Good-quality design can be made by any number of different methods, not just ours. What our customers particularly like is that with the technology, we can work faster than our competitors. Design has traditionally been a very slow process - but not here. That doesn mean we're cheap,it just means we can get the design to the client before anyone else can.
男:嗯,不是只有这个。高质量的设计可以通过许多不同的方法来实现,不仅仅是我们的方法可以。我们的客户特别喜欢的是,有了这项技术,我们可以比我们的竞争对手工作得更快。通常,设计是一个非常缓慢的过程——但我们公司不是这样。这不意味着我们价格低,只是意味着我们可以比别人更快地把设计交到客户手里。
Woman: You're becoming well known for your designs, now, aren't you? Didn't one of your racing bikes recently win an award in a competition?

女:现在你们的设计越来越出名了,对不对?你们的一辆赛车最近不是在比赛中获奖吗?
