剑桥商务英语中期1-6单元整理

You need art which shows your clients you have good taste and that you are successful.

就在不同的但是一般我建议一些强有力的和大胆的。如果只是光的颜色,没有人能看到,这是毫无意义的。你需要艺术,显示你的客户你有很好的品味,你成功了。

I: I often go into buildings and look at modern art and thin, ?What is that? It isn‘t of anything. No people. Nothing.‘ Why do so many companies choose it?

我经常进入建筑,看看现代艺术和薄,―那是什么?它不是什么。没有人。什么都没有。为什么这么多公司选择吗?

AC: There are a number of reasons, other than the fact that the managing director might like it. You don‘t want art that will offend anyone. So a painting of a man and woman with no clothes on is a bad idea. Similarly, a landscape or a painting of the countryside is the sort of thing you have in your living room at home and doesn‘t look very corporate. Also the art needs to say what kind of company you are. Most companies want to give clients the message that says we’re modern and we’re planning for the future. A classical painting says we’re old and traditional. A painting by a young modern painter gives a more positive image. And remember, it doesn‘t have to be a painting. A sculpture in the reception area can be very effective, for example.

有许多原因,除了董事总经理的事实可能会喜欢它。你不想冒犯任何人的艺术。一幅画的没穿衣服的男人和女人是一个坏主意。同样,乡下的风景或一幅画的东西你有在你的客厅在家里,看起来不很公司。也艺术需要说你是什么样的公司。大多数公司想给客户说我们现代的信息,我们对未来的规划。古典绘画说我们老传统。一幅画,一个年轻的现代画家给更多的正面形象。记住,没有一幅画。雕塑在接待区可以是非常有效的,例如。

I: Finally, all this must be very expensive. How does a company justify thousands of pounds on this kind of thing?

最后,所有这一切都必须非常昂贵。一个公司如何证明数千英镑这种事情吗?

AC: It can be expensive but of course many people rent works from us --- for as little as ten pounds a week. It also means that if you change your mind after a year or so, it‘s easy to change the piece.

当然可以昂贵的但很多人从我们租的作品——以每周10磅。这也意味着如果你改变主意的话一年左右之后,很容易改变。 I: That sounds like a good idea…
