W: So, what do you think is going to happen with this South African contract then?
M: You mean the investment project? You know, something tells me we’re not going to get it.
W: Oh, really? What makes you think that? It’s not like you to be so pessimistic.
M: Well, for one thing, I mean the last bidding; we’ve gone in way too higher. My guess is that they’ll accept a lower tender.
W: Mm. By the way, have some more lobster—there’s plenty of it in this dinner party, and it’s so delicious.
M: Thanks. I think it’s one of the best dinner parties I’ve attended for years. I enjoy, in particular, those wonderful seafood.
W: Me too. Going back to the contract, I don’t reckon price is really the issue.
M: No? W: No. I mean, we’re talking long-term here. This is a seven-year project, maybe longer. So, reliability is what they’ll be looking for, if you ask me. They’ll pay more for that.
M: You’ve got to be joking. This is one of the most price-sensitive markets in the world. The way I see it, we’ll be doing well just to get part of the contract. They’ll probably get a local firm in to do the main work.
W: Hm, well, that’s bad news.
