The goods to be bought

Text

The Production Director showed Mr. Smirnov round the factory and answered a lot of questions of his. There were especially many questions asked on the production floor. The Production Di­rector told Mr. Smirnov about the products of the company. Mr. Smirnov was greatly impressed by the number of the new products and by their sophistication. Then the Production Director showed Mr. Smirnov the different departments of the company and introduced him to the management team. When all was seen and spoken of the Production Director took Mr. Smirnov to Mr. Freiser's office.

Frank: And what do you think of all that you've seen?

Ivan: Oh, it's very interesting and impressive. It's a very good set-up: modern factory, good labour force.

Frank: That's true. We have been in this business for over ten years. Besides we are planning to expand. Our annual turnover is about twenty million pounds.

Ivan: Then our business will be too small for you, I'm afraid.

Frank: You are wrong here, I'm sure. We try to satisfy all our customers. And we treat them all with high esteem.

Ivan: By the way, could I have some material on your prod­ucts? I should study the assortment you offer before we discuss other matters relating to the enquiry, or to our future contract.

Frank: Naturally you will have all the publicity brochures and leaflets. They contain all the technical details. We have prepared a pack for you. Ivan: Thank you very much. That's very considerate of you.

Frank: And when will you be able to tell us what devices ex­actly interest you?

Ivan: Most probably I'll look through all the materials tonight, then contact our General Director and tomorrow I'll give you our reply.

Frank: Hard work, isn't it? But certainly it's better to discuss all the details while you are here in London. Now let's make a break and enjoy lunch at the restaurant just across the street.

Ordering the devices

Text

After Ivan Smirnov had a fact-finding visit to Newall Ltd. he studied the materials he got and reported the results of his visit and survey to the General Director. In the morning he tele­phoned Mr. Freiser and made an appointment for 11 a. m. the same day. Thus they met at Mr. Freiser's premises at 11 and after some preliminaries they got down to business.

Frank: Judging by your early call this morning you have brought us good news, havent'you?

Ivan: That's true. Last night I spoke with my General Director and he gave me the go-ahead to the purchase. And here is the list of the devices we are interested in.

Frank: And how many devices of each type are you ordering?

Ivan: 5 of each the five types, or 25 all in all.

Frank: It is rather disappointing, I should say.

Ivan: I agree with you here. It's a rather small order. But it's a trial order. If our customers are satisfied with the devices they will order some more. Meanwhile we'll contact our customers in a few other cities in Russia. They might be interested too.

Frank: And speaking about your trial order, when do you need the devices?

Ivan: Can you deliver them next month?

Frank: At the earliest we can deliver them during the second half of the month. And how do you want us to ship the goods?

Ivan: By air, this time. They are not very heavy and besides our customers are impatient to test them as soon as possible.

Frank: If I understand you properly you would like us to ship them on cif terms by plane. The cif prices will be much higher than the basic prices stated in our bro­chures.

Ivan: Then let's discuss the price now.

Frank: Shall we have some coffee or tea first?

Ivan: I don't mind a break at all.
