Zheng Li, Y Factory came over just now and complained. The quality of the batch of parts we delivered this time is really poor. Even the measurements aren't up to standard.

我也知道，不过零件差太多，Y工厂那边交代不过去呀。而且今年年底又要供应商招标了，投诉太多对我们不利啊。

I know, but the parts are below standard. There's no way we can explain this to Y Factory! Furthermore, at the end of this year they're going to put out bids for suppliers again. Too many complaints won't be good for us.

行。那这批零件怎么办？

Okay. Then what's to be done about this batch of parts?

头儿，最近他们采购部进的这批零件不行啊。规格和我们设计的完全不一样，质量也比我们要求的差多了。

Boss, the recent batch of components bought by the Purchasing Department isn't good. The specs on them are nothing like our designs, and the quality is way below what we asked for.

那也不能老是让我们吃亏啊，为了个零件就要改设计。也不知道他们收了供应商多少好处。

But this way we're always getting the bad end of the deal, having to change the design just for a part. I wonder if they are getting something back from the suppliers.

可是头儿，一样是生产笔记本电脑，TX牌的电脑我们可都拆开来看过，人家供应商的零件比我们要好一个档次啊。

But boss, it's all the same in manufacturing laptop computers. We've taken apart a TX brand computer and looked inside. Their supplier's parts are a class above ours.
