Sample Sentences

我们认为削价竞争是没有意义的，价格再低，总有人能比你低，但价格必定反映在商品质量上，削价竞争只会让消费者感觉买不到好东西，甚至花大钱买华而不实的进口商品。

We think that cutting prices to compete is pointless. However low you put your prices, there's always someone lower, but prices should also reflect on product quality. Cutting prices to compete only makes the consumer think that they are unable to buy anything good, and they'll be driven to buy flashy but impractical imports instead.
