考研英語美文賞讀(19):海底撈即將于香港上市 前景如何

  摘要:考研英語作為一門考研公共課,雖然大家都學了英語十幾年,卻仍經(jīng)常有總分過線掛在英語上的情況,因此英語復(fù)習不單單是單詞、做題。閱讀作為考研英語的大頭,僅僅做考研真題或許沒法滿足你的閱讀量,因此幫幫之后會不定時推出一篇英文美文,這些文章都與考研英語閱讀同源,多讀必有好處。

  ?It has a reputation for keeping customers waiting for more than two hours for a table, and has suffered a couple of very high profile food scandals in China and in Singapore.

  海底撈以讓顧客候餐超過兩個小時而聞名,并且在中國和新加坡的遭受了幾次非常引人注目的食品丑聞。

  But the Beijing-based hotpot chain Haidilao, which has outlets from the US to Japan, has been raising eyebrows for another reason this week.

  但已經(jīng)席卷了美國到日本的北京火鍋連鎖品牌海底撈本周又引起了人們的關(guān)注。

  Haidilao International Holding, the hotpot restaurant’s owner, looks like it’s on track to raise 7.3bn Hong Kong dollars via its much-talked about initial public offering in Hong Kong,

  這家火鍋餐廳的持有者海底撈國際控股有限公司看起來有望在香港進行的首次公開募股中籌集73億港元。

  The firm has priced its shares at the top end of the indicated range - HKD 17.80 - and analysts say it might end up with a market valuation of as much as USD 12bn.

  該公司已將其股票定價在指定范圍的最高端——每股17.80港元——并且分析師表示其最終市場估值可能高達120億美元。

  Forbes recently estimated that Haidilao co-founder Zhang Yong will have a fortune of as much as USD 8.3bn after the firm has listed - making him one of China’s richest restaurant operators.

  福布斯最近估計海底撈聯(lián)合創(chuàng)始人張勇將在該公司上市后獲得高達83億美元的財富,成為中國最富有的餐館運營商之一。

  All this of course depends on how Haidilao’s shares perform in the coming months.

  所有這一切當然取決于海底勞股份在未來幾個月的表現(xiàn)。

  Some of the most anticipated tech debuts in Hong Kong this year have disappointed - and analysts say that the food and beverage industry can be just as fickle.

  今年香港最令人期待的一些技術(shù)公司上市后的表現(xiàn)令人失望。分析師表示,食品和飲料行業(yè)可能會變幻無常。

  The growth that Mr Zhang’s hotpot chain, which he started in 1994 in China’s Sichuan Province, has seen in recent years is also quite something.

  張勇于1994年在中國四川省創(chuàng)建的火鍋連鎖店近年來的增長迅速。

  The restaurant’s global network grew from 112 at the beginning of 2015, to 273 by 2017. By half way through this year it had expanded to 341 outlets. And it’s still growing.

  該餐廳的全球分店從2015年初的112個增長到2017年的273個。到今年中期,已經(jīng)擴展到341個分店。而且還在增長。

  "As of the latest practicable date, we owned and operated 363 restaurants, which comprised 332 restaurants on mainland China, and 31 restaurants in Taiwan, Hong Kong and internationally in Singapore, South Korea, Japan and the United States," the firm said in a statement this week.

  “截至最近,我們擁有并經(jīng)營著363家餐廳,其中包括332家餐廳在中國大陸,31家餐廳在臺灣,香港,以及新加坡,韓國,日本和美國,”該公司本周在一份聲明中說。

  Research firm Frost and Sullivan said the hotpot chain was the fastest-growing major Chinese cuisine restaurant brand on mainland China, and globally, with revenues jumping 36% between 2016 and 2017.

  研究公司“Frost and Sullivan”表示,該火鍋連鎖店是中國大陸和全球增長最快的主要中國餐飲品牌,2016至2017年間其收入增長了36%。

  The retail portion of the firm’s shares were oversubscribed by more than five times, but whether or not investors will invest in the firm for the long term remains to be seen.

  該公司股票的零售部分超額認購超過了五倍,但投資者是否會長期投資該公司仍有待觀察。

  Mr Zhang meanwhile seems determined to keep expanding the chain.

  張勇似乎決心不斷擴大這個連鎖品牌。

  About 60% of the money the firm raises through its listing has already been earmarked to finance part of its expansion plan - which could include operations as far afield as the UK, Australia and New Zealand.

  該公司通過其上市籌集的資金中約有60%已經(jīng)專門用于資助其部分擴張計劃 - 其中包括遠至英國,澳大利亞和新西蘭的業(yè)務(wù)。
