场景介绍:
美剧House of cards《纸牌屋》第三季第五集中,弗兰克与邓巴都在为总统竞选预热,幕僚Doug挺而走险,决定只身前往邓巴阵营展开谈判,给自己寻求一份关键职务。邓巴团队自然清楚Doug的能力和价值,给出一份业内标准和薪酬待遇,以试探Doug的态度和反应。Doug将计就计,正儿八经、不卑不亢地针对薪酬福利与邓巴及其幕僚展开周旋。这段剪辑所使用的商务用语地道、大气,适用于高级商务英语学习者或高端营销及管理人才作为参考素材。

带着问题看剪辑,请思考以下五个知识点:

1、请解释Doug开价的薪酬中涉及到的“ad-buy”是指什么?
2、请找出负担不起对应的短语表达
3、请找出九牛一毛对应的短语表达
4、请找出引狼入室对应的短语表达
5、请用常见商务短语“In terms of”的造句

看美剧《纸牌屋》学商务英语之薪酬谈判相关问题解答:

1、For a higher end operative like Doug the ad buy is important because the better Doug is at his job, the more money the candidate would receive, and the more she'd spend on advertising. For most other positions this wouldn't be a consideration and straight salary is more likely.

This remuneration package in success of the candidate as well- for a candidacy like Jackie's for example, her 'Doug' would probably want to forego a win bonus and ad buy for a (high) but straight salary, since there's not much chance of her winning and her advertising is limited before she throws support to Dunbar.

2、请找出“负担不起”对应的短语表达  That’s beyond our means.
3、请找出“九牛一毛”对应的短语表达 It is a drop in the bucket
4、请找出“引狼入室”对应的短语表达 invite the fox into the hen house
5、请用常见商务短语“In terms of”造句:  In terms of nutrition, homemade food is definitly the first choice for us.

看美剧《纸牌屋》学商务英语之薪酬谈判:学习笔记

AD-Buy:What it means is that Doug gets 1% of all the money she spends on advertising e.g. She spends $5mil, he gets $50k.

Question: Why would this model of compensation be considered 'fair'? Why would a staffer's comp fluctuate based on how much is spent on advertising?

For a higher end operative like Doug the ad buy is important because the better Doug is at his job, the more money the candidate (Dunbar) would receive, and the more she'd spend on advertising.

For most other positions this wouldn't be a consideration and straight salary is more likely.

This remuneration package in success of the candidate as well- for a candidacy like Jackie's for example, her 'Doug' would probably want to forego a win bonus and ad buy for a (high) but straight salary, since there's not much chance of her winning and her advertising is limited before she throws support to Dunbar.

Beyond one's means:more than one can afford, or exceeding one's available finances.

A drop in the bucket: A very small quantity, especially one that is too small. or an effort or action having very little overall influence, especially as compared to a huge problem.

Inviting the fox into the hen house:is an idiom that is used to point out to somebody that his/her action invite disaster.

1、How to negociate with your employer or boss in regard to Salary and remuneration package?
