053 Midway Tactics 中间战术
外国人讲:
Three competing store owners rented adjoining shops in a mall.Observers waited for mayhem to ensue.
The retailer on the right put up huge signs saying,“Gigantic Sale!”and“Super Bargains!”
The store on the left raised bigger signs proclaiming,“Prices Slashed!”and“Fantastic Discounts!”
The owner in the middle then prepared a large sign that simply stated,“ENTRANCE”.

中国人讲:
三个互相争生意的商店老板在一条商业街上租用了毗邻的店铺。旁观者们等着瞧好戏。
右边的零售商挂起了巨大的招牌,上书:“大减价!”“特便宜!”
左边的商店挂出了更大的招牌,声称:“大砍价!”“大折扣!”
中间的商人随后准备了一个大招牌,上面只简单地写着:“入口处”。
