Shen Yunfang is the PR manager of Alipay."The users will be able to directly log into the platform of the U.S. merchants we cooperate with through Alipay without registering.

支付宝的公关经理沈云芳表示:“用户可以不需要注册直接登录与我们支付宝有合作的美国购物平台。用户可以直接通过支付宝付账,因为我们已经和他们协商好了,商品可以用人民币结算。这会大大方便有购物需要的用户。”
The goods purchased via Alipay on Black Friday will be mailed directly to China, so no freight agencies will be needed, meaning it will save more time. It's this element of the service which seems to be appealing the most to Chinese consumers.
在黑色星期五通过支付宝买的东西会直接寄到中国,所以不需要任何货运机构,这意味着节省了很多时间。正是这项服务的这一点吸引了大部分中国消费者。
"Through freight agencies to purchase on Haitao is very slow and tricky. So the direct mail should be a better choice. And the discounts seem very attractive."
“通过货运机构在嗨淘上买东西很慢而且很复杂,所以直邮是更好的选择。而且折扣非常诱人。”
"If I find something I need on the list, and the price is much lower in the U.S. than in China, I may try the service."
“如果我能找到我需要的东西,而且美国的价格又比中国低,我应该会试试使用这项服务。”
