Woman: Hello, Mr Michael, thanks for talkine to me today.
女：你好，迈克尔先生，谢谢你今天跟我谈话。
Man: Not at all.
男：不用客气。
Woman: Your company is located in such wonderful countryside. I expect your clients like coming here, don't they? Or do diey find it difficult to get here?
女：贵公司坐落在这么美丽的乡村。我想你的客户很喜欢来这里，不是吗？还是他们觉得到这里交通不便？
Man: Actually, the transport links aren't too bad, but we very rarely see our customers in person. What they do like about it is that it's a pretty secret location and rather difficult to find. Our work is very confidential.
男：事实上，交通线路还不错，但是我们很少见到我们的顾客。他们喜欢这里是因为，这是一个非常秘密的地点，很难找到。我们的工作非常隐蔽。
Woman: Ah yes. Your designs are beginning to make the designs of some of your competitors look rather old-fashioned. How do your designers work on their ideas? Is it all about technology?
女：是的。你们的设计开始使一些竞争对手的设计显得很过时。你的设计师是如何实现他们的想法的？技术就可以解决一切吗？
Man: Technology is the biggest part. We certainly have no use for pencils and drawing boards like the old-style design studios. Our designers use the latest computer-aided design system. Ideas can be tested from all angles just by using the computer screen. However; we haven't stopped building models completely - we just put the design into a solid form using clay or foam at a later stage of the process.
男：技术是最重要的部分。我们当然不像老式设计工作室那样需要铅笔和画板。我们的设计师使用最新的计算机辅助设计系统。只用电脑屏幕就能从各个角度审视构思。然而；我们并没有完全停止构建模型-我们只是在后期使用粘土或泡沫将设计变成固体形式。
Woman: Ah-ha. I know you have several important projects at the moment. Who is your biggest client?
女：嗯。我知道你们现在有几个重要的项目。谁是你们最大的客户？
Man: All our work's important to us. We're best known for designing bikes and motorbikes, but the company that keeps us busiest these days is car producer. However, there are also hundreds of different household items that we've designed in the past.
男：我们所有的工作对我们都很重要。我们以设计自行车和摩托车而闻名，但现在让我们最忙的是汽车生产商。然而，我们过去也设计了数百种不同的家居用品。
