☆ネイティブの生の会話からリアルな英語を学ぶ☆
=================================
1) All-time(史上最高の)
=================================
all-timeは「史上最高の」や「今までで一番の」を意味し、「今まで一番好きな〜」はall-time favorite ____と表現します。「今までで一番好きなアニメ」はall-time favorite anime、「今までで一番好きな映画」はall-time favorite movieと言います。
<例文>
What is your all-time favorite movie?
(今までで一番好きな映画は何ですか?)

=================================
2) Old-school(昔ながらの〜)
=================================
old schoolは昔ながらのファッションや音楽、または古風な考え方や手段などを表す口語的なフレーズです。old fashionedと意味は似ていますが、old schoolは昔ながらの価値観が保たれていて魅力的であるといった具合に、状況によってはポジティブな意味合いも含まれます。例えば、昔ながらの懐かしの音楽をold school jamsと言います。
<例文>

not onlyは「〜だけでなく」を意味し、日常会話では一般的にnot only A, but also Bの形式で使われます。例えば、「彼は英語だけでなく、中国語も喋れます」は「Not only can he speak English, but also Chinese.」という具合に表現します。ちなみに、not onlyの位置を変えて「He can not only speak English but also Chinese.」と表現することもできます。

(お金だけではなく時間の無駄でもあります。)
=================================
4) Have a finger on the pulse of(〜の実情を正確に把握している)
=================================
直訳で「脈に指を置いている」となるこの表現は、ある状況を正確に把握していることを表す表現です。今のトレンドや動向に詳しかったり、会社の内情をしっかり把握しているような状況で使われます。haveの代わりにkeepが使われることもあります。また、この表現では必ず単数形のa fingerになるので覚えておきましょう。
<例文>
She has her finger on the pulse of the IT industry.
(彼女はIT業界の動向を正確に把握しています。)
I try to keep my finger on the pulse of the stock market.
(私は株式市場の動向を正確に把握するように努めています。)

(私はこの状況においては現状を正確に把握していません。)
=================================
5) In any way shape or form(どんな形でも)
=================================
直訳で「どんな形でも」となるこの表現は、一般的にnot in any way shape or formのように否定形で使われ、「決して〜でない」や「いかなる形でも〜ない」といった意味になります。何かを否定することを強調するときに使われる表現で、wayを省いてin any shape or formと表現することもあります。

Fashioned almost like a market where customers can pick and choose whatever seafood they fancy, Three Peacocks has an elaborate display of loads of white fish, squid, salmon fillet and lots of shellfish like white clams, gong gong, half-shell scallops, New Zealand half green mussels, crayfish, live oysters and even live mud crabs. It was certainly a feast for the eyes!

This is undoubtedly one buffet that you must not miss! Don’t be surprised if you see a few hens and roosters, and a beautiful strutting peacock as you make your way here.

。。。。。。。。。
先講何謂「競爭優勢」Competitive Advantage?
Michael Porter 話 "If you have a real competitive advantage, it means that compared with rivals, you operate at a lower cost, command a premium price, or both."
如果你有真正的「競爭優勢」,相比起競爭對手,你就有低啲嘅成本,或高啲嘅售價,或兩個都有。
"Competitive advantage is a relative concept. It's about superior financial performance." by Michael Porter
競爭優勢是相對的。 係代表你財務回報做得好過你同行的競爭對手。
唔單止做得好,而係要賺錢多過人。記住,上集我同你講:
"The real point of competition is not to beat rivals. It's to earn profits."
競爭,最重要唔係打低競爭對手,而係要賺錢!
何謂賺錢? Michael Porter 嘅定義唔係純粹睇個大數。 他話賺100蚊嘅公司,唔係一定叻過賺90蚊嘅公司。 因為話唔定賺100蚊嘅公司,佢就投資咗1000蚊,先賺100蚊。 但賺90蚊嘅公司,投資咗500蚊已賺賺到90蚊。 咁後者又何必再投資多500蚊,去賺嗰剩餘嘅10蚊。 因為呢500蚊可以投資喺第二度可能有更高回報,何必為做而做呢?
因此 Michael Porter 睇嘅賺錢,係 measured by ROIC (Return On Invested Capital) 資本投資回報。 即係話你放咗幾錢入去盤生意,equity and debt combined, 資本又好、借又好, 賺錢回報率有幾多呢?
例如,你開間茶餐廳,你自己放咗100萬入去,問銀行借咗100萬裝修,合共投資200萬。開業後,未扣除銀行利息及稅務 (EBIT - Earnings Before Interest and Tax),每年就賺40萬,咁你嘅 ROIC (Return on Invested Capital) 就係40除200,等如20%。
如果你再另外開多一間, 道理上因為經驗多咗啦,總部人手成本一樣,額外投資金額應該就會少咗,開始有 economy of scale (經濟規模效益),當今次只係投資160萬,回報一樣每年40萬。ROIC 就係 25%。
Michael Porter 話, 如果你每開一間,你嘅投資回報 ROIC 會因為 economy of scale (經濟規模效益)而提升,why not! 開多幾十幾百幾千間都得。
但如果你開到某個程度,每開一間,你嘅投資回報 (ROIC) 就下降。 例如依家總投資要成200萬,由於市場開始飽和,每年賺錢只得額外20萬,資本投資回報只得10%。Michael Porter 話咁又何必再開呢? 因為咁樣只會把你整體嘅 ROIC (資本投資回報率)拉低。
做得大,唔代表賺錢。唔好為大而大。有時 Small is beautiful. 細有細嘅美麗。
美國最賺錢嘅航空公司 Southwest Airlines, 睇下呢幅圖, 過去幾十年佢嘅嘢 ROIC (Return on Invested Capital),上面黑色條線,一直保持行內最高, 行內其他航空公司平均係每年回報3.1%, Southwest Airlines 就能夠做到每年回報11.4%,高出同行2.7倍, 肺炎前年年賺錢。
Southwest Airlines 創辦人 Herb Kelleher 曾經講過 ”Market share has nothing to do with profitability. Market share says we just want to be big; we don't care if we make money doing it. In order to get an additional 5% of the market, some companies increased their costs by 25%. That's really incongruous if profitability is your purpose."
佢話:「市佔率往往同利潤率無關係。 市佔率只係講大, 但未必賺到錢。 有啲公司為咗攞多5%額外市佔率, 願意洗多25%嘅成本, 咁樣同做生意要賺錢嘅理念係互相違背的。」
我自己做商舖基金都係一樣,我成日都話:「我情願人少啲,賺多啲」,遠遠好過「人多多,每人賺少啲!」 人少啲, 社運肺炎,咩風浪都經過起。 人多, 一闊三大,一個浪冚,好易玩完。
記住我上面提過「競爭優勢」就係: 「相比起競爭對手,你有低啲嘅成本,或高啲嘅售價,or both!」 咁點樣同樣嘅產品或服務,你嘅回報就更高。
"Strategy choices aim to shift relative price or relative cost in a company's favor." by Michael Porter
策略的選擇,目的是向公司有利的方向把相對的價錢或成本調整。
咁點選擇呢? 就係睇你條 「Value Chain 企業價值鏈」啦。
"The sequence of activities your company performs to design, produce, sell, deliver and support its products is called the value chain. " by Michael Porter.
由產品的設計、生產、銷售、送遞、到售後服務,這個流程就叫做企業價值鏈。
"A company's value chain is the collection of all its value-creating and cost-generating activities." by Michael Porter.
企業價值鏈係由所有為客戶增值及令企業增加成本的活動總和。
睇圖,Value Chain 包括 Primary Activities 主要活動 and Supporting Activities 輔助活動。入貨、加工、出貨就係你服務顧客啲主要活動。 公司嘅架構、人力資源、科技應用就係輔助活動。Michael Porter 話如果你要贏人, 你就要明白你以上嘅價值鏈每一步、 每個活動、 每個細節對人客嘅價值製造 (value creation) 同相關成本 (cost incurred)。
要勝出,你有兩個選擇:
(1) Compete on execution. Better operational effectiveness. Perform the same activities as rivals, but execute better. Be better, be the best!
用「執行力」去贏人。每一步,設計/入貨/生產/出貨,都同爭對手差不多,但執行得更好、更快、更準。成個流程成本平啲,人客滿意啲。 等於一間茶餐廳, 落單準啲、上菜快啲、 炒餸好味啲。 但教授 Michael Porter 話咁就好似隻老鼠喺個圈入面,operational effectiveness, 跑快啲跑快啲 ,be the quickest, be the best! 但其實不斷地都喺個圈入面跑緊。長遠,人或老鼠,始終會攰, 你好啲,但人哋都會改善追上。競爭對手就遲早令你競爭優勢難以維續。
(2) Compete on strategy. Perform different activities from rivals. Meet the different needs of customers at lower cost or higher price. Be unique.
用「策略」去贏人。設計/入貨/生產/出貨嘅價值鏈,同行內其他爭對手唔同。 明白唔同顧客,有唔同需求。 用低啲嘅成本或者高啲嘅售價,or both, 去滿足佢哋嘅需求。做唯一! Michael Porter 話咁就會令你 好似隻老鼠咁,跑出個圈,走條捷徑,帶你想去嘅地方。 只是專注,長遠你嘅競爭優勢更容易持續。
例如, 美國嘅航空公司過去幾十年都係非常之難做嘅行業,1980年起,ROIC Return on Invested Capital 資本投資回報平均只得每年3.1%。
但我上面提及的西南航空 Southwest Airlines,佢過去幾十年,由(1) 訂票 (只用自己網絡,唔用 agent, 慳番啲手續費) 、(2) 機種 (只用一種波音737,方便機司培訓同保養, 唔似得其他航空公司乜飛機種都有)、(3) 坐飛機無飛機餐(慳返成本及方便清潔)、(4) 無編定座位 (先上機先揀位坐, 唂啲人快啲上飛機,早啲開機)、至 (5) No connecting flights 無轉駁航班 (只有直接 point to point, 唔使等你或你啲行李轉機), 仲有更多更多, 成條嘅 Southest Airlines Value Chain 價值鏈嘅活動,都係同行內競爭對手唔同。 雖然機票售價平啲,但佢成本更加平。咁亦都解釋咗點佢能夠咁多年來平均嘅資本投資回報率 ROIC 高達11.4%,高過同行競爭對手近三倍。
我自己做商舖基金都係一樣, 都係 compete on strategy. 如果我純粹低買,高賣舖。 我只可以靠買得平過人,沽得快過人去賺錢。 但長遠好難持續跑贏大市的優勢, 一個社運肺炎冚埋嚟, 馬上冚旗。
呢條係我哋公司商舖增值嘅價值鏈 (insert graph), 由投資者集資、買舖、解除 order /裝修/分契、至「服務式商舖」搵合適租客 (諗計仔幫佢做多啲生意)、至宣傳推廣出售商舖及「三大保證」售後服務, 加上公司基本設施、人力資源、科技應用、採購流程嘅配合, 我相信香港無任何一個商舖投資者同我哋一樣為商舖增值。 我係舖市要跑贏大市,都係靠呢條 Value Chain 價值鏈。包括,買賣我基金單位嘅交易成本,遠遠低過買賣成間舖。租我哋舖做生意嘅風險,都遠遠低過租間不知名、無人跟進的舖。
咁亦都解釋咗點解,我哋用咗五年時間,今個月就用基金買入咗港幣第一個「10億」舖,前後60間街舖。萬事起頭難,我相信第二個「10億」舖,大約兩年內會完成。
根據哈佛教授 Michael Porter,只要條 value chain 企業價值鏈夠獨特及專注, 好難有另一個競爭對手入嚟係香港街舖嘅層面打低我哋。好多人會嚟抄我哋嘅 business model 商業模式,但佢唔會做舖。 佢會做工廈、商廈、住宅、農地、骨灰龕位、大灣區、非洲、火星,但佢唔做香港街舖。 因為個地頭已經畀我哋霸咗,佢點做都唔夠我哋熟。 唔通我講話我要買1000間香港街舖,佢講話要買2000間,邊個人會信佢! 佢話500間就不如唔好講。
當然,教授話任何 good strategy 都需要 good execution,無好嘅執行力,所有說話只係空談。因此我成日話「持續性、持續性、持續性地執行」好重要。
Both strategy and excution are important. 好嘅「策略」及好嘅「執行力」同樣重要。 只有好嘅 「執行力」,無「策略」,你會賺到錢,不過好大機會係細錢。 加埋好嘅「策略」,配合好嘅「執行力」,大錢就會嚟!
你盤生意呢? 你條企業價值鏈 Value Chain 又係點呢? 同人哋有乜唔同? Are you competing on good execution or good strategy? 你係執行力上贏人、定策略上贏人? 點樣做到成本平啲或收費高啲,or both 呢?
有興趣一齊研究多啲點做? 聽多啲 Michael Porter,就來我七/八月份星期六嘅早餐會啦! 下集我再同你講 (4) What is strategy? How do you create value? 什麼是策略 ? 你如何創造價值?

the beautiful market 在 DJ Macky Suson Youtube 的最讚貼文
This beautiful view is in front of this award-winning, iconic, unforgettable and luxurious resort in Boracay Island, the Philippines.
But the only true about what I said is, “unforgettable”.
After a long walk from station 3 to DiscoveryS hores Boracay, I decided to grab my favorite pasta, aglio olio. There were a few people taking photos of food at the entrance and I was greeted by a guard who happened to be the owner, and the waiter of the resort.
His greetings was so warm, he asked if I had a QR code, which is required before you get in the island. His tone was so condescending and unfriendly, and so I thought, he was the owner, acting as a guard. I politely answered “yes, and I would not be able to get inside the island itself, if I did not have one.” Hence, my response for his already condescending voice. He answered back with a more condescending voice “I am just asking!” Which was then again, obvious from the first question he asked, because, it sounded with a question mark AND an exclamation point.
I eagerly asked if they had pasta, and he said he had to go inside first and check. When I was approaching him again, to ask if there serve pasta, he asked “what kind of pasta?”, now the guard became the waiter. I did not know a luxurious hotel hires a guard and a waiter at the same time.
The resort had a few people. Yes, which means there were plenty of vacant tables inside. He then approached me and ask me to dine it at a location where the table was filthy, the chair was dirty, and secluded from the rest of the guests. I confirmed four times with the manager if it was really their protocol, to let the walk-in guest eat there. Which was then a lie because I saw a few people dining it at the better place, not hotel guests, but walk-ins.
Discovery Shores Boracay Island, where the guard and manager discriminate people.
Discovery Shores Boracay Island, where they market their resort as luxurious but their service is rated as one star. No, let’s make it unrateable.
Discovery Shores Boracay Island, a place where people with Sony A7C and professional cameras are discriminated. Vloggers are not welcomed.
Discovery Shores where the guard is the owner, and the waiter. Where the operations manger is incapable.
Discovery Shores Boracay Island the Philippines, overrated and does not need the support of the people. Only people who discriminates supports a business that discriminates.
P.S, this is my personal experience, and with videos to support my claim. Some people around the area that this is owned by a congressman, where in the Philippines, you get killed if you speak against their businesses. So if something happens to me, you know who to find.
