我在美國街頭隨機訪問!🎤
訪問來自加拿大一對銀色夫妻檔,分享他們成功的故事!❤️
我問了他們這些問題💬:
1️⃣ 目前的職業是什麼?👨⚕️
2️⃣ 給想要進入電影製作領域的人建議?🎬
3️⃣ 給想要進入房地產行業的人建議?🏢
4️⃣ 你們每年賺多少錢?💰
跟著Claire一起在美國做街訪
Claire: What do you guys do for a living?
你們靠什麼謀生?
太太:I’m a real estate agent.
我是房地產仲介。
丈夫:I’m a documentary filmmaker.
我是一名紀錄片製片人。
Claire: What’s the advice you would give to someone who wants to get into the filmmaking field?
你有什麼建議給那些想進入電影製作領域的人?
丈夫:Oh, it’s very hard you know because it’s all about funding and coming up with an idea that you think the other people will be interested in enough to help you with, but you want to maintain your independence. If you want it to be quirky, you want it to be quirky! But other people don’t often get inside your head, so you have to be very persistent.
哦,這非常困難,因為這一切都需要資金以及提出一個構想是你認為其他人能感興趣到想要贊助你的程度。但你想保有你的創作自由。如果你想讓作品古怪一點,你當然想那樣去搞嘛!但其他人不一定理解你的想法,所以你必須(對創作)非常地堅持。
Claire: What about your advice? For people who want to get into real estate?
妳對想進入房地產行業的人有什麼建議呢?
太太:It’s been a very good business for me.
這對我來說一直是很好的生意。
Claire: How much money did you make if you don’t mind me asking?
妳賺了多少錢?如果你不介意我問的話。
太太:No, I’m not answering that.
我不會回答這個問題的。
丈夫:It’s Canadian dollars, so it’s worth nothing.
這是加幣,所以不值錢啦。
太太:I found that people really wanted honest, real advice the way I wanted to be treated. With that, I started getting a lot of repeat and referral business. I think your clients know when you’re just pushing them to make a deal or sale. They see it. You can’t do that.
我發現人們確實想要誠實、真實的建議。我自己也想被這樣對待。以這種方式接待客戶,我開始有更多回頭客及業務推薦。我相信你的客戶會知道的,如果你只是為了賺他們的錢而推銷。他們看得出來。你不能那樣做。
丈夫:I think both of us have a pretty high degree of an ethical sense. Also, we love the things that we do.
我認為我們倆都有相當高的道德感。此外,我們熱愛我們所做的事情。
太太:You have to love what you do.
你必須熱愛你所做的事情。
