单选题Why Seeing is SucceedingLee Chung of the Seattle Business Institute explains There are some executives who get it right. They launch winning products, and have a feeling for what customers like and dislike. They do not depend on research or secondary information, and yet they know the market extremely well. Take Steve Banks, developer of the best-selling personal finance software, Finax. He had noticed how difficult it was to use existing software products, and realised there was a gap in the market. Although 46 competing pack- ages were available when Finax was launched, it quickly succeeded in attracting the majority of customers. Then consider the UK oil group which learnt that a new chain of hypermarket petrol stations was overtaking its own outlets. The competitor's success was due to a higher standard of service and facilities. The oil group's managers could have discovered this by going to observe these stations. for ten minutes. Instead the oil group contacted an agency to carry out more market research. One of the Institute's most striking findings is that the best business strategists see things for themselves. They do not just analyse, but get out into the field with their customers, and gain first-hand experience of their products.

单选题PARTNERS IN SUCCESS Phil Brook and Sean Williams are friends who set up a company in 1997 providing finance to companies making IT purchases. Their firm, Syscap, now turns over ￡120m a year. 'I'm an extrovert, so selling fits my character,' explains Phil Brook. 'I started selling photocopiers, and it didn't take me long to achieve the agreed sales targets. Then, in 1994, I realised the IT industry was about to explode, and I decided to try and sell IT. I met a guy who was setting up as a computer re-seller, and I worked for him for three years, expanding his company to a turnover of ￡3-￡4m. We were among only a few people selling computer systems on lease, so we were attractive to reps offering finance. There was this guy from CTL Bank called Sean Williams who rang us dozens of times, trying to sell me IT finance. I was already getting finance from somebody else, but he kept on calling. That impressed me- I thought, if he's any good, maybe I'll recruit him.' Sean Williams adds, 'When we finally met, we went out to lunch and became firm friends. I thought Phil was fun, and we had similar interests. The next day, we did a deal together, and I provided him with all the finance he needed. Then he realised, and I soon agreed, that there was a big opportunity to do independently what I was already doing for the bank. So he left his job and established Syscap. It took me a while to decide to join him, because I was among the top salespeople nationally at my bank, and my future was planned. But I knew when I did that it was the right decision. I knew we had the same ideas about work. When you work hard, you get there, whether you're good or not. It's like golf. The more you practise, the luckier you get. With us, the more times we picked up the phone, the more deals we made. The business soon took off enormously. I've always had big ambitions, but I didn't expect it to become as big as this.' Phil thinks that the next few years look promising. 'The competition in this trade is weak,' he says, 'so I believe we can turn this into a ￡1bn company. People in our industry find it amazing that Sean and I still get on so well after all this time. But I'm glad we do. It's our partnership that makes the job fun.'

单选题 Tourism chiefs in Hong Kong have {{U}}dismissed{{/U}} suggestions that the intermittent conflicts that have sprung up between residents and mainland travelers in recent years will {{U}}deter{{/U}} visitors from the mainland. Last year, 28.1 million mainland tourists visited Hong Kong—67 percent of the total number of visitors, said Greg So, secretary for commerce and economic development for the special administrative region's government. The mainland has become the largest source of tourists for Hong Kong, and the number of tourists to the city is growing. "With the opening of our harbor for cruise ships next year, we expect to offer more choices for mainland tourists," he said. Joseph Tung, executive director of the Hong Kong Travel Industry Council, said he believes the city's flourishing tourism industry should thank the central government's rescue moves in 2003 when Hong Kong was "nearly dead" because of the SARS outbreak. "Nobody came to visit Hong Kong then. Other countries were also afraid that Hong Kong tourists going out would spread the disease. We were really worried," he said. When the central government decided to allow mainland tourists from some cities to visit Hong Kong without joining tour groups in July 2003, it immediately boosted tourism. In August 2003, more than 946,000 mainland tourists visited Hong Kong, an increase of 43 percent over the same period of the previous year, according to the council. The influence of mainland tourists on the city has been overwhelming. More people in the city's travel and retail industries have learned to speak Mandarin. "Even when we go shopping, the salesperson, unable to tell us from mainland tourists, would speak to us in Mandarin, instead of Cantonese," said Greg So, joking that he learned Mandarin partly during shopping. But along with the growing number of tourists, there are also a growing number of conflicts. In 2010, Chen Youming, 65, former player of the national ping-pong team, had a heart attack and died when he was forced to shop by an unlicensed tour guide in Hong Kong. Last year, another tour guide got involved in verbal and physical conflicts with three mainland tourists. Reports said that the tour guide led the 33-member group to a jewelry store, but none of the group bought anything during the two-hour .stay. The tour guide began snarling at them. Also last year, a video showing a mainland woman and a few Hong Kong residents arguing on the subway went viral online. The woman had let her child eat on the subway, which is not allowed in Hong Kong. The video triggered a heated discussion online. Media comments said that the rising number of conflicts is a new trend. But Tung said these incidents are just isolated cases. The council is doing its best to regulate the industry and tour guides to prevent incidents such as these from tarnishing Hong Kong's image, he said. At least seven tour guides have had their licenses suspended, he said. The travel agency that hired the unlicensed tour guide who forced Chen Youming to shop lost its business license. Hotlines have been opened to record tourists' complaints. The number of complaints has dropped by 40 percent in the first five months of this year compared with the same period last year. Tung said he hopes the central government will allow citizens of more mainland cities to visit Hong Kong without joining tour groups. Currently, citizens of 49 mainland cities can go to Hong Kong without joining tour groups.
