Guang Tai Best Success Trading Ltd. (Zhao 3)
We can see from the fist paragraph that Guang Tai wants to finish the six-year cooperation and doesn’t want to be the agent company for the German company any more. However, what follows in the passage is that the two companies cooperated very well during these years and the Guang Tai asked for the forgiveness. And the Guang Tai expressed that “If you are not satisfied with us or don’t agree with us, pls. find the other persons to be instead of us.” Thus the precondition of the ending of the co-operation has become whether the German company was satisfied with the Guang Tai. The consecution is apparently in chaos. The correct consecution is supposed to be:
Our almost six years’ cooperation will be ended. I can’t work as your agent any more because of heavy pressure. I hope you can understand.
Pls. find the other company that can be instead of us. We are willing to ensure the hand over smoothly. Guang Tai is a responsible company and won’t do anything harmful to the supplier because our leaving.
