Der italienische Hersteller des traditionellen achteckigen Kaffeekochers für den Herd, Bialetti, ist von einem chinesischen Unternehmer übernommen worden. Wie beide Seiten mitteilten, hat das Konsortium des Unternehmers Cheng aus Hongkong fast 79 Prozent der Bialetti-Aktien gekauft - für etwa 53 Millionen Euro.
Not a criticism, but that way of phrasing it is funny to me. Makes me imagine it was like a Doctor Who episode.
SCENE: INT. OFFICE BUILDING
Camera pans over standard office equipment, characters
making copies, having lunch in the break room. We hold
on a phone operator, female, Mediterranean appearance,
mid-30s. Her name is GIANCARLA. She is engaged in a
pleasant phone conversation in Italian. The other side
says something which makes GIANCARLA look confused.
GIANCARLA:
(Italian, English subtitles)
Huh? I think something's wrong with the line, I
can't understand you. Is that even Italian?
Wobbly blue energy wave (SFX) passes over GIANCARLA. She
is now female, Asian appearance, mid-30s. Other endof
phone continues speaking.
GIANCARLA:
(Chinese, English subtitles)
That's better! Everything's back to normal, now.For a moment, it didn't even sound like you were
speaking Chinese!
