That French Mystique Dazzles US Cosmetics
"Miraculous, wonderful, fantastic". This is the French are describing their current success in the US cosmetics market. For decades American companies had been the leaders in the industry with 90 percent of the market .When the French returned some three years ago, nobody considered them a threat. But today the big names are back: Chanel,Dior, Saint Laurent,Guerlain,. Clarins and Jaudel.
The trend in today's cosmetics is for products which keep skin looking young. "The French actually treat skin problems rather than hide them", says one beauty expert.”They, have directed their efforts at educating the American woman to treat her skin with greater care". In their advertising the French have emphasized quality and simplicity.And judging by their market
share, American women are getting the message.
The French also owe their success to investments in plant capacity and new product development. One French firm recently opened a factory in the United States to supply its 1,200 retailers Another has announced plans to rnarkec a ime or sKm-care products for men. Most importantly. tha Franrh have put marketing people and product executives in charge of their US operations instead of financial specialists.
Although virtually every US cosmetics firm has lost market share to the French,the Americans are not yet ready to concede defeat. The French will have to stay alert as the more aggressive US firms eye their market shares with envy. In this highly competitive market, the smaller mistake can be fatal.
B1. What kind of products have become the trend in today's cosmetics market?一
A products which hide skin problems
Bproducts which keep skin looking young
C products which are less expensive
B2what is the American women’s reaction to French products?
Aall of them dislike French products
Bmany of them are buying French products
Cmost of them still prefer American products
C3What is US firms' attitude towards the French firms which have US
operations?_
Afriendly Bapathetic Cenvious
A4How do the French feel about their success in US cosmetics market?
Apleased Bworried Capathetic
C5Who are in charge of the French's US operations?_
Afinancial specialists Bmanagers Cmarketing people and product executives

who'S THE BOSS
Q: Would you please point out some manners and etiquette that should be observed when working with people from Western countries?
A: From first-hand experience and conversations with others, I have come up with several tendencies of some Chinese people that might seem rude or even offensive to Westerners, especially in a business environment. The following is a list of Do's and Don'ts that should help anyone avoid offending, displeasing, or even angering their Western business counterpart or colleague.
1Turn offthe mobile phone! Perhaps nothing is more annoying to a Westerner than when, during a business meal or meeting, his Chinese counterpart's mobile phone starts ringing while the Westerner is still in mid-sentence. It is recommended that you turn your mobile phone off before engaging in a meeting or meal. If you have to use your mobile phone for some emergency you should first politely excuse yourself and offer a courteous apology when finished.
2.No smoking. Due to the health hazards and unpleasant odour associated with second-hand cigarette smoking, many Westerners who don't smoke have taken a general dislike towards inhaling(吸入)other people's fumes.
3.Keep bodily noises to a minimum. The only thing more grating to a Westerner's ear in China than the constant ringing of mobile phones is the sharp sound made by many Chinese when clearing their throats. This "hawking" sound should be avoided at all costs and in no circumstances hould one spit (phlegm, chicktn bones or tea leaves). If one needs to spit out something, please dispose of it in a napkin.
4. Speak up and be assertive. This applies particularly to Chinese women, who tend to be rather soft-spoken in business meetings or other formal functions. In general, Westerners value people who are assertive direct, and convey a sense of self-confidence. If you reflect these virtues
you will gain an advantage over your shy, reserved, and soft-spoken colleagues and associates.
A1What does the word "etiquette" in the first paragraph mean?
Aceremony B attitude C method
B2. If you have to use your mobile phone for some emergency during a business meal or meeting, what you should do?
A just turn it on without telling anyone.
B politely excuse yourself and offer a courteous apology when finished.
C directly tell them you have to use it.
B3. In business meetings or other formal functions, you should
ASoft-spoken Bspeak up and be assertive Cspeak quickly and clearly
B4In business meetings or other formal functions ,Westerners like people who are
A shy, reserved, soft-spoken B assertive, direct, self-confident C clear and clean
C5. Westerners don't like which one below?
A speak up and be assertive B no smoking C make sharp sound when clearing throat
(III) COMPAQ

The laude) products in North American market
This meeting is to brief our marketing force about the distribution of 3audel products in our North American markets.
Well,first I;m plrased to report that onve again ,jandel products have done extremely well in North America .In the folders in front of you you'll find a complete breakdown of sales by product line and market.
You'll notice that sales in the US have increased 13% overall,from 3.8 million dollars to 4.3 million dollars. Sales of perfume products have increased 11 k. And it is reported that demand for make-up products, such as eye-shadow, mascara and lip stick, continues to be strong, although not as high as the other products.
Our strongest markets are in the Northeast of the US, Boston, New 'fork, Buffalo, Philadelphia and Washington DC.
In fact this area accounts for 90% of our sales in the US-the remaining 10% comes from our North Central markets-Chicago, Detroit and Cleveland.
Possible sites for new distribution centers include Atlanta, Georgia, Dallas, and major cities in California.
A glance at the breakdown of sales will also tell you that sales in Canada have increased too, although the percentage of increase is not as high as that of sales in the US , just an 8% overall increase. However, you will notice that perfume products have increased much higher than sales of skincare products and make-up products.
Our weakest markets are in Montreal and Toronto.In fact sales in these cities have decreased 0.5%. It is necessary to investigate into the reasons for the decrease in the markets there.
A1. The strongest markets of Jaudel products in North America are in-

Minutes of meeting held in Rome, 8 May 1993
Present: Alessandro Baroncelli(Managing Director, Microtron Italy)
Richard Brewer( Sales rlanager)
John Hamilton(Finapce Manager)
Leslie Reeves(Marketing Manager)
Subject: Expansion plans and capital requirements
Summary of discussion
Mr Brewer opened the meeting with a review of the situation in Europe. He explained that sales of quartz watches are expected to double over the next five years and that Mr Baroncelli has put forward alternatives to keep pace with this growth.
Mr Hamilton argued against further capital investment.He added that if it was unavoidable , it should be delayed for a few years. He asked the meeting to give serious consideration to an alternative investment project -the long term development of the plan in Milan.
Mr Brewer argued that any delay in expansion would be harmful for two reasons:(1) because the situation in Europe is changing rapidly, and (2) because waiting would be much more costly in the long term
Ms Reeves asked whether selling more shares of the company in the Stock market would be a satisfactory third alternative mr baroncelli explained that this would not be feasible at present, although it might be in 2 to 3 years.
