M: Great to meet you here, Miss Black. But what brings you here?
W:[13]I have been informed that your company is holding its annual international sales convention here next spring. I am coming to see if we can offer you the services of our hotel.
M: That’s interesting.
W: Mr. White, we are old friends, so I will not beat around the bush. I know you are well acquainted with our facilities, because you have attended many banquets, dinners, and luncheons there. I am sure that we will offer more advantages than other hotels.
M: That’s true. I have been greatly and pleasantly entertained at your hotel.
W: Do you still remember the lovely rooms in our hotel?[14]They are all outside rooms with pleasant views. They are beautifully decorated and comfortable. I will show you some pictures. Have a look at them...
M: Yes, they are really excellent. But what I am concerned about is the price. I think the prices are a little bit too high.
W: Mr. White, we can challenge the price of any hotels in the city for large conventions. I promise.
M: But[15]you know now arranging conventions is out of my line. I have just been promoted to be the president of the company. So I’ll have to leave that job to Mr. Green, the vice president in charge of sales. I think he will talk about the details with you. If the price is OK, I promise we will have great chances of cooperation.
W: Thank you for that.
