Josey: Hello, I'm Josey Kim.
約塞： 哈羅，我是約塞·吉姆。
Curt: Hi, I'm Curt West. Thanks for agreeing to meet with me.
科特： 嗨，我是科特·韋斯特。感謝您同意與我見(jiàn)面。
Josey: You mentioned on the phone that you can help us get that government contract we're bidding on, is that right?
約塞： 在電話中您提及說(shuō)您能幫我們拿到我們正在競(jìng)標(biāo)的政府合同，對(duì)嗎？
Curt: Absolutely. I'm sure I can be of service to your company and secure that contract without too much difficulty.
科特： 當(dāng)然。我敢肯定我能為貴公司效勞，無(wú)須太多麻煩就能爭(zhēng)取到合同。
Josey: I appreciate your confidence, but can you tell me more about how you plan to do that?
約塞： 我很欣賞您的自信，但是您能告訴我更多具體的計(jì)劃嗎？
Curt: I think the less said the better. Let's just say that I have friends in high places.
科特： 我覺(jué)得知道得越少越好。這樣說(shuō)吧，我有政府高層的朋友。
Josey: I'm not sure I understand you.
約塞： 我不太明白您的話。
Curt: Come on, you know how business is done on Capitol Hill. If you line the right pockets, it's not difficult to pull some strings to get what you want.
科特： 得了吧，您也知道在國(guó)會(huì)山交易是如何完成的。如果有油水可撈，肯定不愁得到你想要的。
Josey: Are you suggesting that our company use bribery to get preferential treatment on our bid?
約塞： 你是在暗示讓我們公司以行賄來(lái)獲得競(jìng)標(biāo)上的優(yōu)待嗎？
Curt: I'm simply saying that backroom deals are business as usual in the government.
科特： 我只是想說(shuō)，走后門(mén)在政府是司空見(jiàn)慣的事情。
Josey: If you're suggesting that we hire you to do influence peddling, I can tell you now that we're not interested. Corruption may be rampant in government, but we're not willing to do anything unethical to get a contract.
約塞： 如果你以為我們雇你來(lái)就是為了招權(quán)納賄，那么我告訴你我們不感興趣。雖然政府內(nèi)部腐敗風(fēng)氣盛行，但我們不會(huì)為了拿到合同做任何不道德的事情。
Curt: Suit yourself, but without somebody like me doing your dirty work, there's no way you're going to win that contract.
科特： 隨便你，但是如果沒(méi)有像我這樣的人，你是絕對(duì)不可能拿到合同的。
Josey: That may be, Mr. West, but that's a chance we're willing to take.
約塞： 可能吧，韋斯特先生，但我們樂(lè)意試一試。
