English. German ... The latter free

... zumindest was Metaphern, Wortspiele und illustrierende Umschreibungen anbetrifft. Gut, an sich ist das nichts Neues, aber es ist mir gerade einmal wieder aufgefallen. Ich sitze am Wohnzimmertisch und widme mich einer Sache, die ich schon lange machen wollte, nämlich dem Vergleich der deutschen Dick Francis Bücher mit der englischen Originalversion. Dabei hat die eigentlich sehr gute deutsche Übersetzung nicht den Hauch einer Chance. Normalerweise liegt das an der schlechten Übersetzung, but not in this case. Exceptionally, if you hold against the translators sometimes do not lack knowledge of English or lack of feeling for language, this time it is pure linguistics:-D

I have a Dick Francis book " Grindhouse " or "Dead Cert" in front of me and I dedicate me with growing pleasure for comparison. I had already made me, when I was in Angers, and I get hold of the big book sale the Bibliothèque Anglophone, among many other books, several Dick Francis books. In the absence of Beelen located in the German editions I had to wait so far. And after reading the first comparative Seiten steht das Fazit fest. Aber gegen die englische Umschreibung "There had been a quality about that fall which put it straight into the killing class." kommt "Dieser Sturz hatte so gefährlich ausgesehen, dass man das Schlimmste befürchten musste." überhaupt nicht an. Und das ist nur ein Beispiel.

Going to China with ERP

Globalization is having a far-reaching impact on the business world. In a business environment marked by globalization, the world seems to shrink, and other businesses halfway around the world can exert as great an impact on a business as one right down the street. SMEs (Small and Medium-sized Enterprises) are going through a transition phase and are generally restructuring their strategies and capabilities to remain competitive and grow in the emerging world trade environment. Companies have to follow this trend and operate on a global base, e.g. with subsidiaries and factories in China. We have been observing the trend of German-speaking and other European SMEs moving to China for quite a while. One of the main challenges for companies moving abroad is the need to establish an efficient ERP system. The IT department has to provide solutions for the guiding principle “system follows strategy”.

The reasons why enterprises expand to China are mainly:

- Resource seeking
- Market seeking
- Efficiency seeking

For SMEs, two prime areas of the global economy are ripe for picking: selling to new markets and setting up operations abroad. Once the exclusive domain of large manufacturing enterprises, these opportunities are also available to SME manufacturers.

Take for example selling to new markets in developing nations in Asia and the former Soviet-bloc states. While conventional wisdom says that these regions are most likely to be the origin rather than the destination of manufactured products, increasing consumer demand in these markets cannot be met by domestic manufacturers. Foreign supply relationships are the most common forms of internationalization, while exporting is the next, and some establish foreign subsidiaries and branches.

We observe four main obstacles that German speaking companies are facing with their IT / ERP strategy:

- Projects take too long to cope with the fast-changing market conditions in China
Companies in China are growing much faster than in Europe – and management is not used to handling such fast growth
- IT (especially license costs and maintenance) are more expensive than the Chinese employees operating IT
- Cultural differences between a Chinese and a European workforce complicate HR management. Chinese employees are usually well educated but lack experience of Western business behavior.

If German, Austrian, or Swiss companies want to globalize their business, the strategy “we do it like home” has to be questioned. In Germany, Austria, or Switzerland there seems to be a lack of understanding and knowledge concerning these topics. Large vendors with a long history of international business and production plants outside of Europe typically have that sort of knowledge – yet for common SMEs this information is not very helpful because they usually lack the organizational back-office capacities of large enterprises. Typical Swiss characteristics like perfection and quality might not be the ideal driver for a rapid globalization and a proper alignment of the IT systems.


We found that several dominating factors influence the success of an ERP project in China. These are language, report and table format, Business Process Reengineering (BPR), economic reform impact, and human resource problems. The failures of foreign ERP implementations should encourage a more localized strategy.
A tactic for Western companies should be to use a local ERP service company or a consulting company that is more familiar with the Chinese culture (to guide firms who implement their systems). By switching to domestic service providers or international service companies familiar with the Chinese culture, user companies can mitigate the pressures exerted by Chinese culture, which values personal relationships.
A proper software evaluation process is critical for ensuring that the appropriate software is chosen to meet the business's needs. As part of the evaluation process, it is important to ensure that the software meets Chinese regulatory requirements and local language requirements, and that it is well-supported in China.

Niko conquered ... Dortmund winter racing (63)

Wenn das neue Jahr schon zwei Tage alt ist, wird es allerhöchste Eisenbahn für den Rennbahnauftakt. Schließlich hört es sich schrecklich an, wenn man sagen muss: „Ich war dieses Jahr noch nie auf der Bahn.“ ;-) Außerdem war mein letzter Rennbahnbesuch auf deutschem Boden im August 2010 und DAS ist wirklich ganz schön lange her. Zwar ging es „nur“ on the sand track, but as a replacement drug, but then gave it all, somehow, the time until mid-March are finally bridged.

The weather was relatively good with assets and spectators. The Dortmund turf presented itself for a change in good condition. Only scratch was missing for perfect happiness of the race track visitor. Whether it was probably comfortable in Neuss? After all, Dippel was present and so we did not have the tradition of the sand track, cocoa and my long-awaited break in France and tasted so painfully missed at the other Currywurst stand

Winter in Dortmund

horses were there. In the first race of 2011 repeated itself an event. Just as in the previous year, a horse from the stable of Mario Hofer make the race victorious. Starcos was in 2010, managed the feat this time the four year old mare Keydream that brought Andreas Suborics the first goal after the comeback and also the prelude to a hat-trick was. I wish I had posted here a photo of the first annual winner, but unfortunately I deleted the image by mistake. Fate. The UK-Import Barreq presented itself during his Germany debut in the parade ring better than in the race. Visually, he stabbed his competitors clearly could possibly keep up because Keydream, Mistic Fire and to a lesser extent Oleandra, the rest fell off significantly. For winter conditions Barreq shone just too shameless, probably already stocked up in September ... Amarula Sunrise could do with a date with the farrier tolerated: roll:

was after the first race is still a fraternal reunion, (mentioned you were even) many thanks to Beate for the detention of a memorable moment ;-)

Niko Niko-Laus and Bert: See you at the Dortmund Absattelring

In the second race we were quite agree that Xi and Wiltshire would make the race among themselves. is particularly struck me none, I think I was otherwise engaged:-D But I have during the race but once unpacked my camera. The times with the many photos are now back again, have long been not so much photographed on a race day. Xi was also the second day matches for coach Norbert Sauer, reportedly by Mr von der Recke was pointed directly at his huge lead in the trainer's championship in 2011: D-

Xi wins superior to Nicol Oiler King

2nd place for Jermyn Street and Manuela Murke

In the third race started Devil Lips with a horse that is also launched in 2010 on the first day of the race of the year. However, I can already tell nothing about the appearance and behavior of the pets in the parade ring, I stood the whole time in line at the snack cart. The train was in fact visited quite good (more people were in the normal case in Angers, not on the train) and obviously I was not the only one that had not yet had lunch.

Then we made it then again to the parade ring. All in all, there were times that day (almost) not a pathetic little horse, which was once singled out positive. Barbarella Although I liked less, but otherwise looked all starters from tidy. I had to Goldkaetzchen for the second time to pick 'em - my quota "at home" but is apparently better than in France. Andi Suborics could say after the race for the second time the award ceremony.

Before the fifth race was the place in the heated grandstand after enticing than the path outside. But even there, the UK-import, does not convince this time in the form of Ideology directly, so far seems to be no new combat zone in sight to be. Thus the way was clear for Nasibow that could win the second win in series. Thus, the Suborics hat-trick was perfect, even if Acotango won the race at the last minute again exciting.

The sixth race proved two things. First, the theory was confirmed with the island of horses and the second she showed me that the hypothesis that he first saw trainer / jockey wins a race, can not be applied to horses. In my case, the El Aguilo had been to me, even during transport, on the march had of the U-obsolete to the racetrack. But in this balancing III I had the winner absolutely not on the bill, night owls, I have not even seen in the parade ring. El Aguilo seemed smaller than I remembered him. Diacaro mixed the rest in the parade ring again and again. Kalitas, which I would have indulged in another victory, was accustomed inconspicuous.

During the seventh race I then once tested the limits of my camera. Racing under the lights definitely exceed the same:-D Nothing more to do with ISO and aperture, but at least it shows that I was at the races

.

Unedited: The proof of the limits of my camera ;-)

In the last race Josef Boyko took care of the second hat trick of the day. can for the lead in the jockey championship in 2011 it was not enough, however, as Andreas Suborics have a placement more. In the parade ring I liked Prince Dumont by far the best. Not that I would ever get the idea to bet him:-D Still, absolutely friendly horse that looked alert and fresh from the laundry. I had just got me on the old warhorse second, which unfortunately could order anything and Abstand Letzter wurde.
