缘来圣诞（2022）

Thanks though. – Whatever you think.
你是做生意的是嘛
You’re in business, right?
是啊 肯定的
Yeah, last time I looked.
是这样 迈克尔要去一个大金融公♥司♥面试
Michael’s got this interview for a really big finance company.
能给他一些建议吗
And maybe you can give him a few tips?
苏西 没事
Suzy, it’s OK.
他为此还提出了一个很厉害的提案 -哪有
He’s actually got a really brilliant proposal for it. – Don’t.
行 你想跟我讲讲吗 -并不
You wanna pitch it to me? – Not really.
试试吧 -他也许能帮到你呢
Go on. – He might be able to help.
我对超♥市♥里的塑料袋有这么一个想法
I have this theory about plastic supermarket bags.
所有人都觉得是因为环保游说
Everyone thinks it was environmental lobbying
才让各大超♥市♥不再使用它们了
that got the supermarkets to ditch them,
但是我觉得是一个想法奇特的人在背后搞的
but I reckon it was some maverick guy on the inside.
他想法前卫
He’s ahead of the game.
他知道一次性塑料要被时代淘汰了
He knows single use plastic is on the way out,
但是他可以用它盈利
but he can make it profitable.
他找到他老板 然后说
He goes to his boss and says,
“听着 我们不能再随便赠送塑料袋了
“Look, we need to stop giving away plastic bags,
我们要向顾客展示我们的走向环保的巨大勇气
so let’s show our customers our big green balls
告诉他们自己带购物袋来
and tell them to bring their own bags.
这样我们不仅看起来有责任感还能节省一小笔钱”
We look responsible and we save a small fortune.”
但是这真正机智的地方在于…等待时机
But then the really clever bit… we bide our time.
之后几周 人们都开始忘带购物袋的时候
Then after a few weeks, when everyone’s forgetting their bags,
我们把塑料袋卖♥♥给他们
we sell them.
以前我们免费给 现在我们卖♥♥
We sell them something we used to give away for free.
这是环保袋 女士 就像你上周买♥♥的那样
A bag for life, madam, like you bought last week.
很好
Very good.
难道他们不把钱捐给慈善机构吗
Don’t they give the money to charity?
利润会捐的 但投资成本不会
The profit, yes, but not the capital cost.
所以 这是一份给零售部的提议
So, it’s a proposal for the retail sector?
不过是抛砖引玉罢了
That’s just a catchy example to introduce the premise.
整体是关于企业内部的文化变革
It’s about culture change within business.
如何实现利润最大化
How maximising profit
和环保议程并不相互排斥
and a green agenda are not mutually exclusive.
从我的角度来讲这个想法还可以
It’s not the worst idea I’ve ever heard.
谢谢
Thanks.

Be after my job next.

这是最简单的办法 -这就是你的解决办法
It’s the easiest thing. – That you sorting it?
不用把我的话放在心上 -不 只是…
Don’t take any notice of me. – No, it’s just…

我能看看嘛
Can I see?
电机已经烧坏了所以只能放在那儿
Motor’s burned out so it just sits there.
基本上是我整个职业生涯的写照
That’s basically a metaphor for my whole career.
为什么我们不在这儿办呢
Why don’t we just do it here?
那个派对 -我觉得不行
The party. – Don’t think so.
他们希望我能做到更多
They’ll be expecting more than me
而不只是把桌子推到墙边空出个场地
just pushing the desks against the wall.
上面有什么 -来 我带你看看
What’s up there? – Come. I’ll show you.
真美啊 -是啊
Beautiful. – Yeah.
就是从来没有真正地享受过罢了
Never really lays any more though.
你有没有过自己不曾真正活着的想法
You ever get the feeling like you’re not really living?
就像你的人生刚准备开始
You know, like your life’s just about to begin.
一直都有
All the time.

And you’ve got a whole new life to go and do.

She might as well have bullied me herself.
你给你妈妈准备礼物了吗
You got your mum’s present yet?
我给她画了一张画
I did her a drawing. Um…
我是想给她点好东西的
I’d love to get her something really good, though.
