@ 50391 義烏小商品市場
A 這不是小張嗎？最近忙什麼呢？好久沒看到你了。
zhè bù shì xiǎozhāng ma? zuìjìn máng shénme ne? hǎojiǔ méi kàndào nǐ le.
Hey, aren't you Xiao Zhang? What have you been up to lately? Long time no see.
B 哦，是小李啊，好久不見了。我最近開了家禮品店，自己做老闆了。小生意，有空多來光顧啊。
o, shì Xiǎo Lǐ ā, hǎojiǔ bù jiàn le. wǒ zuìjìn kāi le jiā lǐpǐndiàn, zìjǐ zuò lǎobǎn le. xiǎo shēngyi, yǒukòng duō lái guānggù ā.
Hey, Xiao Li. We haven't seen each other for a long time. I recently opened a store that sells small gifts. I'm my own boss. I just have a small business. Stop by sometime when you're free.
A 一定，一定。你現在這是上哪兒啊？
yīdìng, yīdìng. nǐ xiànzài zhè shì shàng nǎr ā?
Definitely! Where are you off to now?
B 哦，去義烏批發點兒貨。
o, qù Yìwū pīfā dianr3 huò.
Oh, I'm going to Yiwu to get some wholesale goods.
A 義烏？浙江那個以小商品市場出名的義烏？
Yìwū? Zhèjiāng nàge yǐ xiǎoshāngpǐn shìchǎng chūmíng de Yìwū?
Yiwu? That little town in Zhejiang famous for small goods?
B 是啊，就是那兒。義烏的小商品市場品種齊全，而且價廉物美，我上個月還去那兒批發了不少聖誕禮物呢，賣得特別火。
shì ā, jiùshì nàr. Yìwū de xiǎoshāngpǐn shìchǎng pǐnzhǒng qíquán, érqiě jiàliánwùměi, wǒ shàng ge yuè hái qù nàr pīfā le bùshǎo shèngdàn lǐwù ne, mài de tèbié huǒ.
Yeah, that's the place. They have all kinds of goods in the Yiwu markets. The price is right and the goods are high-quality. Last month I went there and got a bunch of Christmas presents on wholesale. They're selling like hotcakes!
A 聽說現在全世界有80%的聖誕用品都是中國製造的，而國內出口的聖誕用品有一半是出自義烏，這是真的嗎？
tīngshuō xiànzài quán shìjiè yǒu bǎifēnzhī bāshí de shèngdàn yòngpǐn dōu shì Zhōngguó zhìzào de, ér guónèi chūkǒu de shèngdàn yòngpǐn yǒu yībàn shì chūzì Yìwū. zhè shì zhēn de ma?
I hear that 80% of Christmas products worldwide are made in China. And half of the domestically produced Christmas products are exported from Yiwu. Is that true?
B 當然是真的，義烏是我們國家最大的小商品出口基地，每天都有大量的外商去那裡採購，是名副其實的“世界超市”。聯合國、世界銀行等機構也認為義烏是全球最大的小商品批發市場，在全球商品供應鏈中佔有重要地位。
dāngrán shì zhēnde, Yìwū shì wǒmen guójiā zuìdà de xiǎoshāngpǐn chūkǒu jīdì, měitiān dōu yǒu dàliàng de wàishāng qù nàli cǎigòu, shì míngfùqíshí de `` shìjiè chāoshì" . liánhéguó, shìjièyínháng děng jīgòu yě rènwéi Yìwū shì quánqiú zuìdà de xiǎoshāngpǐn pīfā shìcháng, zài quánqiú shāngpǐn gōngyīngliàn zhōng zhànyǒu zhòngyāo dìwèi.
Of course so. Yiwu is our country's biggest base for exporting small goods. Everyday a ton of foreign business people go there to buy in bulk. It's worthy of the title ``World Market." The UN, World Bank and other organizations also think that Yiwu is the biggest wholesale market for small goods in the entire world. It holds a very important position in the global supply chain of small miscellaneous goods.
A 沒想到義烏除了是全國性的小商品流通中心以外，還是國際性的小商品採購基地啊。
méixiǎngdào Yìwū chúle shì quánguóxìng de xiǎoshāngpǐn liútōng zhōngxīn yǐwài, háishì guójìxìng de xiǎoshāngpǐn cǎigòu jīdì ā.
I had no idea that besides being a national distribution center for small goods, it was also an international center for purchasing small goods in bulk.
B 是啊，現在義烏的影響力可是越來越大了。甚至有人說，義烏小商品市場已經具備了影響全球小商品價格走勢的力量，一種小商品在義烏市場上的批發價格哪怕升降一毛錢，都有可能引發世界各地的小商品價格波動。
shì ā, xiànzài Yìwū de yǐngxiǎnglì kěshì yuèláiyuèdà le. shènzhì yǒu rén shuō, Yìwū xiǎoshāngpǐn shìchǎng yǐjīng jùbèi le yǐngxiǎng quánqiú xiǎoshāngpǐn jiàgé zǒushì de lìliang, yīzhǒng xiǎoshāngpǐn zài yìwū shìchǎng shàng de pīfā jiàgé nǎpà shēngjiàng yī máoqián, dōu yǒu kěnéng yǐnfā shìjiè gèdì de xiǎoshāngpǐn jiàgé bōdòng.
Yeah. These days, Yiwu is getting more and more influential all the time. There are even people who say that Yiwu's small goods market has the power to influence the pricing trends of small goods around the world. If the wholesale price of a given product rises or falls so much as a dime at the Yiwu market, it can cause fluctuations in the price of small goods around the world.
A 真的這麼牛？
zhēnde zhème niú?
Is it really that powerful?
B 一點也不誇張，現在中國商務部和義烏市政府已經聯合發佈了“義烏中國小商品指數”，作為“中國商務天氣預報”的一部分，每天在央視一套裡播放呢。
yīdiǎnyěbù kuāzhāng, xiànzài Zhōngguó shāngwùbù hé Yìwū shì zhèngfǔ yǐjīng liánhé fābù le `` Yìwū Zhōngguó xiǎoshāngpǐn zhǐshù" , zuòwéi `` Zhōngguó shāngwù tiānqìyùbào" de yībùfèn, měitiān zài yāngshìyītào lǐ bōfàng ne.
I'm not exaggerating at all. Now the Chinese Commerce Department and the municipal government of Yiwu have already collaborated on publishing an ``Index of Yiwu and Chinese Small Goods." It serves as a piece of the ``Chinese Commerce Weather Report."
A 什麼？小商品指數？
shénme? xiǎoshāngpǐn zhǐshù?
What? A small commodities index?
B 對啊，“義烏指數”是我們國家發佈的第一個小商品指數，主要由小商品價格指數、小商品市場景氣指數、小商品市場單獨檢測指標等三部分組成，據說對全球小商品的產、供、銷起導向作用，更對全球小商品的定價起決定性作用。
duìā, `` Yìwū zhǐshù" shì wǒmen guójiā fābù de dìyī ge xiǎoshāngpǐn zhǐshù, zhǔyào yóu xiǎoshāngpǐn jiàgé zhīshù, xiǎoshāngpǐn shìchǎng jǐngqì zhǐshù, xiǎoshāngpǐn shìchǎng dāndú jiǎncè zhǐbiāo děng sān bùfèn zǔchéng, jùshuō duì quánqiú xiǎoshāngpǐn de chǎn, gōng, xiāo qǐ dǎoxiàng zuòyòng, gèng duì quánqiú xiǎoshāngpǐn de dìngjià qǐ juédìngxìng zuòyòng.
Right. The ``Yiwu Index" is China's first published small goods index. It's made up mainly of the prices, market conditions, and individual monitoring standards of small commodities. I've heard that it has a role in guiding the production, supply and selling of small commodities. It's even more useful in the global pricing of small goods.
A 是嗎？那零售商們可真得好好研究研究這個指數了。
shì ma? nà língshòushāngmen kě zhēn děi hǎohāo yánjiūyánjiū zhège zhǐshù le.
Really? Then wholesalers should really research this index very thoroughly.
B 可不是嘛，我現在就每天收看，這可是關係著錢袋子的大事啊。
kě bù shì ma, wǒ xiànzài jiù měitiān shōukān, zhè kěshì guānxi zhe qiándàizi de dàshì ā.
That's for sure. I read it every day. This is really a big issue with a direct connection to your wallet!
