individual oriented. Traditionally, we work because it is the will of the God, and we often value the results and accomplishments of work more than its process. By the way, I’m very impressed by the obvious strong sense of dedication of the jobs among the older Chinese employees.

我认为,大多数中国人将工作视为能使自己成为整个团体中的一分子的必不可缺的条件。中国人相信,工作是自己有了团体归属感。换言之,中国人为了得到社会的认可,必须工作。这就是为何许多中国经历和员工会努力工作以保住自己在公司的职位的原因。中国人还将工作视为生活中最重要的大事。也就是说,他们想从工作中找到生活的意义。中国人的工作观建筑在社会压力和团体归属感的基础上,而美国人的工作观则有更强的个体取向性。我们一向认为,我们工作是秉承了上帝的意志,我们对工作成果的重视常常高于对工作过程的重视。复发is,年龄较大的中国员工对自己的工作有一种明显的奉献精神,我对此有很深的印象。

Returning to where we started, how do you comment on the merits and demerits of the two different approaches to business management?

回到我们一开始的话题,您如何评价中美两种不同经营之道的利弊呢?

It is difficult to decide which is better than which, because there are some merits and demerits to both types of management. My suggestion is that people of both countries should learn from each other. I will say that in recent years, the merits of the Chinese way, or rather , the Oriental way, of management are beginning to be recognized by an Oriental way of our American industries.

很难判断孰优孰劣,因为这两种经营方式各有自己的长处与短处。我希望两国人民应该相互学习,取长补短。应该说近年来中国人的经营方式,更确切的说是东方人的经营方式,开始为越来越多的西方人所认识。东方人的这种人情味更浓的经营方式似乎给我们美国差业界的管理人士以颇多的启迪。

谢谢!谢谢您接受我的采访。 Thank you for sharing your time with me.

我谨代表我在座的所有同事,对你们那独有的、著称于世的款待表示感谢。我不仅要特别感谢为我们准备晚宴的人们,而且还要特别感谢演奏优美音乐的人们。

On behalf of all my colleagues present here, I wish to thank you for the incomparable hospitality for which the Chinese people are justly famous throughout the world. I particularly want to pay contribute, not only to those who prepared the magnificent dinner, but also to those who have provided the splendid music.

我们在中国度过了十分愉快的时光,我很高兴我的访问能在如此融洽的气氛中结束。 These have been very pleasant days in China, and I’m happy that my visit should conclude in such a congenial atmosphere.

主席先生,我要感谢您那热情洋溢、慷慨陈词的演讲。此时此刻,许多人正在通过神奇的电讯设备倾听着我们的讲话。然而,我们这里所说的话很快便会被人们遗忘。但是,我们在这里所做的事却能改变世界。

Mr. President, I wish to thank you for your very gracious and eloquent remarks. At this very moment through the wonder of telecommunications, many people are hearing what we say today. Yet, what we say here will not be long remembered. But what we do here can change the world.

所以,让我们沿着通往共同目标的不同道路,一起开始新的长征。这个目标就是建设一个和平与正义的世界,在这个世界里所有人都可以站在一起享有同等的尊严,所有国家不论其大小,都有权决定自己的政府形式,选择自己的发展道路,而不受外来干涉或统治。

So, let us start a long march together on different roads leading to the same goal, the goal of building a world structure of peach and justice in which all may stand together with equal dignity and in which each nation, lager or small, has a right to determine its

own form of government, its own course of development, free of outside interference or domination.

我国的社会制度和政治制度在许多方面都与贵国的社会制度和政治制度不同。这是我们不同的经历和不同的传统造成的。我们的制度并不总是带来大家都赞同的结果。人们有时会抱怨这种制度、批评这种制度。但是这种制度根深蒂固,已成为我国人民的意识与行为本能。我们不想把自己的思想意识强加于人。我们认为,有着不同政治制度和社会制度的人们和平相处是正确而又必要的。我们没有用同一种模式来评价当今世界的方方面面——由于我们有着截人=然不同的历史、地理和文化,很难想象我们会对所有问题都有一只的看法——但是我们彼此一致认为,世界和平是我们的基本需求,各国决定自己的命运、规划自己的未来也同样使我们的基本需求。 We have a social and political system which differs in many respects from your own. It is the result of different experiences and a different tradition. This system of ours does not always produce results of which we all approve. People sometimes grumble at it and criticize it. But it is a political system deeply rooted in the instincts of our people. We do not aim to impose our own ideas on other people. We believe that it is right and necessary that people with different political and social systems should live side by side. We do not assess in identical fashion all aspect of today’s world—with our distinct histories, geographies and cultures it is inconceivable that we could see eye to eye on all issues—but we do agree on the fundamental need for world peace, and the equally fundamental need for all countries to determine their own fate and design their own future.

世界注视着我们,世界倾听着我们,世界拭目以待我们的作为。

The world watches. The world listens. The world waits to see what we will do.

我们要留给下一代什么遗产呢?他们是注定要痛苦地死于曾肆虐就世界的仇恨之中呢,还是一位我们曾有的缔造新世界的远见而必将要愉快地生活呢?

What legacy shall we leave our children? Are they destined to die painfully for the hatreds which have plagued the old world, or are they destined to live joyfully because we had the vision to build a new world?

时不我待,这是一个攀登崇高理想、创造更美好的新世界的时刻。

This is the hour. This is the day for us to rise to the heights of greatness which can build a new and better world.

本着这种精神,我敬请各位与我一起举杯,让我们为能够结合世界人民带来有益与和平的我们两国人民之间的友谊与合作而干杯。

In that spirit, I ask all of you present to join me in raising your glasses to the friendship and cooperation of our two peoples which can lead to friendship and peach for all peoples in the world.

6-1 新春联欢 ( Celebrating the Spring Festival )

各位嘉宾:(Distinguished guests,)

在这个美丽无比、繁星满天的夜晚,我谨代表总经理欧阳女士,以及公司的全体同仁,感谢各位能在一年中最繁忙的季节,从百忙中拨冗光临我们的新春联欢晚会,并向你们表示欢迎。(On this most beautiful evening with numerous shining stars in the sky, on behalf of General Manager Madam Ouyang and all my colleagues of the company, I wish to thank you all the people here for taking the time of their busy schedule, at the busiest time of the year, to come to our Chinese New Year’s party.

各位还将欣赏由本公司一些才华横溢的青年员工所表演的纯正的中国味的文艺节目。今晚我们会过得非常愉快。平日在公司上班时,我们中外职员几乎没有时间坐下来交谈。我希望这次晚会可以让我们有极好的机会,无所拘束的了解彼此的情况,增进个人之间的友谊。(In a moment, you will enjoy the authentic Chinese performance given by some talented young employees of our company. We will have a lot of fun tonight. While at work in the company, we, Chinese as well as overseas staff of the company, hardly get to sit
