| 32 | Right, because they are designed to make international business faster and cheaper for everyone. | 没错,因为设计它们是为了让国际商业对每个人都更快,更便宜. |
| 33 | Exactly. | 没错 |
| 34 | But we really want to know how they achieve that on the ground. | 但我们确实想知道他们是如何在当地实现这一点的。 |

| 39 | He spoke at the 2026 Financial Street Forum in Beijing. | 他在2026年北京金融街论坛上演讲. |

| 60 | Right, because you cannot just hand a European factory a giant stack of American cash. | 对,因为你不能只把一大堆美国现金 交给一家欧洲工厂 |

| 65 | OK, but doing that across country borders means clearing regulatory hurdles, right? | 好吧,但这样做跨越国界意味着清除监管障碍,对不对? |

| 80 | Right. | 对 |
| 81 | So banks will process their transactions with much less paperwork. | 所以银行会用更少的文件来处理交易 |

| 97 | Yeah, that captures the dynamic perfectly. | 是啊,这捕捉 动态完美。 |
| 98 | I mean, the bank trusts the company based on their history, | 我的意思是,银行信任公司 基于他们的历史, |
| 99 | so the money moves almost instantly. | 所以,钱几乎立刻移动。 |
| 100 | Because they skip the manual document checks. | 因为他们跳过人工文件检查 |
| 101 | Exactly. | 没错 |
| 102 | But I have to push back here a little bit. | 但我得往后推一点 |
| 103 | Okay. | 摆 |
| 104 | If this system is so efficient, why wasn't it always this easy? | 如果这个系统这么有效率, 为什么它不是总是这么容易? |
| 105 | Like, why make businesses suffer with slow paperwork for decades? | 譬如,为什么让企业在几十年里 以缓慢的手续而受苦? |
| 106 | Well, governments naturally prioritize safety over speed. | 政府自然会把安全放在首位 |

| 115 | The source notes this fast lane was actually a pilot program first. | 消息来源指出,这条快车道实际上首先是一个试点程序. |
| 116 | A pilot program? | 实验计划? |

| 164 | They might buy small batches of items from 50 different sellers. | 他们可能从50个不同的销售商那里购买少量物品。 |
| 165 | Okay. | 摆 |

| 198 | Are we just adding a middleman? | 我们只是加个中间人吗? |
| 199 | Well, it might look like adding a middleman at first, | 嗯,它可能看起来像增加 一个中间人在一开始, |

| 216 | Yes. | 对 |
| 217 | Their internal technology is just much, much cheaper to run. | 他们的内部技术 运行成本低得多 |

| 220 | And they force the traditional banks to lower their fees just to keep up. | 他们强迫传统银行为了跟上来而降低成本。 |
