M: Cheers, Shirley.
W: Cheers, Paul. What a lovely place for a business lunch. I hope I can concentrate in this heat.
M: Fm sure you will when I tell you about my ideas.
W: You know, I must say I was pleased to hear from you, but from what you said on the phone, everything is so sudden.
M: Well, my father-in-law, who is also the managing director of Jayal Motors, has given me two weeks to prepare a report on the possibility of moving into the export market.
W:Ah, now, just one thing Paul. Have you really thought the whole idea through?
M:Of course I have.
W: Now the key thing in the whole operation is to get a good import agent, and you say the bank will help?
M: I’m almost sure of it.
W: Preliminary studies are very good, Paul. But if the product can’t sell, then there’s little use in expanding the factory.
M:Yes, I realize that, Shirley. But we have a very good product. The chief designer has just completed a new improved model.
W:I know your bikes have a very good reputation here, but you have to build up a reputation and a market in Africa.
M:Yes, of course. But the immediate problem is that my father-in-law wants a detailed report by next Monday. Two weeks isn’t enough time to prepare a report, so I need your help.
W:OK, Paul. You’ve convinced me. I must say I admire your determination.
