[John Gerzema][危机后的消费者]JohnGerzema_2009X
1.13 trillion dollars in wealth has evaporated over the course of the last two years.
   13万亿的财富 在过去的两年间里蒸发殆尽。
2.We've questioned the future of capitalism.
   我们质疑过资本主义的未来。
3.We've questioned the financial industry.
   我们也对金融业产生过怀疑。
4.We've looked at our government oversight.
   我们检视我们的政府的疏忽。
5.We've questioned where we're going.
   我们对未来的方向感到迷茫。
6.And yet, at the same time, this very well may be a seminal moment in American history, an opportunity for the consumer to actually take control and guide us
   然而,与此同时,危机的到来不仅仅意味着 美国正处在历史上的关键时刻, 对消费者而言,更是一种机遇。 他们能够真正的掌握主动权,
7.to a new trajectory in America.
   并且带领我们进入一个新的发展轨道。
8.I'm calling this The Great Unwind.
   我们把它称之为一场“大松绑“。
9.And the idea is a simple, simple idea, which is the fact that the consumer has moved from a state of anxiety to action.
   其实这本身是一个非常简单的理念, 它描述了这样一个事实, 即消费者正从过去焦虑不安的状态向付诸行动逐渐发生转变。
10.Consumers who represent 72 percent of the GDP of America have actually started, just like banks, and just like businesses, to de-leverage, to unwind their leverage,
   占美国国内生产总值72%的消费群体 事实上已经开始行动了, 正如银行和企业 所采取的一系列“去杠杆化”措施,
11.in daily life, to remove themselves from the liability and risk that presents itself as we move forward.
   在日常生活中,消费者们 让自己从负债和风险中解脱出来, 继续前行。
12.So, to understand this, and I'm going to stress this, it's not about the consumer being in retreat.
   因此,为了便于理解,我想要强调, 消费者们并没有退缩,
13.The consumer is empowered.
   他们被赋予了权力。
14.In order to understand this, we're going to step back and look a little bit at what's happened over the course of the  last year and a half.
   为了更清楚的阐明我的观点,让我们往回走 看看过去的一年半时间里发生了什么。
15.So, if you've been gone, this is the easy CliffsNotes on what's happened in the economy. Okay?
   如果你也同样经历了这一切的话, 我下面将要讲述的便是最简单的摘要。可以吗?
16.(Laughter) Unemployment up. Housing values down. Equity markets down.
   (笑声) 失业率~上升,房产价格~下降,资本市场~猛跌
17.Commodity prices are like this.
   商品价格这样变化。
18.If you're a mom trying to manage a budget, and oil was 150 dollars a barrel last summer, and it's somewhere between 50 and 70, do you plan vacations? How do you buy?
   如果你是你个负责预算的母亲, 去年夏天的汽油价格是每桶150美元, 而现在则是介于50到70美元之间, 你还打算去度假吗?你会怎样买?
19.What is your strategy in your household?
   你的家庭策略是什么?
20.Will the bailout work? We have national debt, Detroit, currency valuations, healthcare, all these issues facing us.
   政府援助会起作用吗?我们面临的问题有国债,底特律, 货币估价,医疗保健等等。
21.You put them all together, you mix them up in a bouillabaisse, and you have consumer confidence that's basically a ticking time-bomb.
   你把他们放在一起,混合成一碗法式鱼肉汤。 另外,你还拥有消费者信心,而它基本就是一个滴答作响的定时炸弹。
22.In fact, let's go back and look at what caused this crisis, because the consumer, all of us, in our daily lives, actually contributed a large part to the problem.
   其实我们应该回头看看是什么导致了这场危机; 因为,在日常生活中,所有消费者 实际上都极大程度上促成了这一问题的产生。
23.This is something I call the 50-20 paradox.
   这就是我称之为 50/20悖论 的东西。
24.It took us 50 years to reach annual savings ratings of almost 10 percent. 50 years.
   我们花费了50年 来达到年储蓄率接近10%的水平。 50年。
25.Do you know what this was right here?
   你知道这个地方是啥时候吗?
26.This was World War II. Do you know why savings was so high?
   这儿是二战期间。你知道为什么储蓄如此高吗?
27.There was nothing to buy, unless you wanted to buy some rivets. Right?
   因为没有任何东西可以买,除非你想买铆钉。对吗?
28.So, what happened though, over the course of the last 20 years -- we went from a 10 percent savings rate to a negative savings rate.
   那么,过去20年发生了什么 使得储蓄率从10%下降到负值?
29.Because we binged. We bought extra-large cars, supersized everything, we bought remedies for restless leg syndrome.
   因为我们大肆享受:我们买超大的汽车, 一切超大型的东西;我们似乎得了坐立不安综合症并为之买单。
30.All these things together basically created a factor where the consumer sort of drove us headlong into the crisis that we face today.
   所有这些加一起,大体上就是 导致消费者进入危机的原因, 我们如此仓促,手足无措。

31.The personal debt-to-income ratio basically went from 65 percent to 135 percent in the span of about 15 years.
   在过去大概15年的区间内, 个人负债与收入比率 大体上从65%增长到135%。
32.So consumers got overleveraged.
   于是消费者们过度杠杆化了,
33.And of course our banks did as well, as did our federal government.
   当然我们的银行和联邦政府也是如此。
34.This is an absolutely staggering chart.
   这是一副十足惊人的图表,
35.It shows leverage, trended out from 1919 to 2009.
   它展示了从1919到2009年间杠杆的变化趋势。
36.And what you end up seeing is the whole phenomenon of the fact that we are actually stepping forth and basically leveraging future education, future children in our households.
   你在最后面看到的是一整个现象, 那就是,我们实际上在举债, 我们在提前透支 未来教育及未来孩子们的花费。
37.So if you look at this in the context of visualizing the bailout, What you can see is if you stack up dollar bills, first of all, 360,000 dollars
   如果你在政府救援背景下想想这个问题, 你将看到的是,如果一个人堆积美元钞票, 首先是360,000美元
38.is about the size of a five-foot-four guy.
   -大致相当于一个5.4英寸人的高度
39.But if you stack it up, you just see this amazing, staggering amount of dollars that have been put into the system to fund and bail us out.
   但是,如果将钱堆积起来,你看到的仅仅是 数量惊人的美元被投入(金融)系统 以资助和援救我们。
40.So this is the first 315 billion.
   这就是最初的3150亿美元。
41.But I read this fact, the other day, that one trillion seconds equals 32 thousand years, so if you think about that, the context, the casualness
   前不久,我看到这样一个事实: 一万亿秒相当于32000年。 你想想这种情形:
42.with which we talk about trillion-dollar bailout here, and trillion there, we are stacking ourselves up for long-term leverage.
   我们在多么轻松地谈论金钱,这儿一万亿,那儿一万亿。 我们在堆积一个长期的杠杆。
43.However, consumers have moved.
   但是,消费者开始行动了,
44.They are taking responsibility.
   他们在承担责任。
45.What we're seeing is an uptake in the savings rate.
   我们开到储蓄率在提高
46.In fact, 11 straight months of savings have happened since the beginning of the crisis.
   事实上,自从危机发生以来 已经有连续11个月的储蓄。
47.We are working our way back up to that 10 percent.
   我们正朝着恢复储蓄率到10%的方向前进。
48.Also, remarkably, in the fourth quarter, spending dropped to its lowest level in 62 years, almost a 3.7 percent decline.
   另外值得注意的是 第四季度的花费降到62年来的最低点, 几乎下降了3.7%。
49.Visa now reports that more people are using debit cards than they're using credit cards.
   维萨公司(Visa)报告说,相比信用卡而言 更多的人在使用借记卡。
50.So we're starting to pay for things with money that we have.
   我们开始用手头的钱买东西,
51.And we're starting to be much more careful about how we save and how we invest.
   我们开始谨小慎微地对待, 存款和投资。
52.But that's not really the whole story.
   但那并不是整个故事,
53.Because this has also been a dramatic time of transformation.
   因为这种转变所花的时间也是相当长的,
54.And you've got to admit, over the course of the last year and a half, consumers have been doing some pretty weird things.
   你不得不承认,在过去一年半中 消费者们做了些十分奇怪的事情,
55.It's been pretty staggering, what we've lived through.
   我们所经历的真的很奇怪。
56.If you take into account 80 percent of all Americans were born after World War II, this is essentially our Depression.
   如果大家考虑到 80%的美国人出生在二战以后, 这就绝对是属于我们的大萧条。
57.And so, as a result, some crazy things have happened.
   同时,一些疯狂的事情发生了。
58.I'll give you some examples. Lets talk about dentists, vasectomies, guns and shark attacks. Okay?
   我会给大家举些例子,比如牙医, 输精管切除书术,枪支和鲨鱼攻击。好吗?
59.(Laughter) Dentists report molars, you know, people grinding their teeth, coming in and reporting the fact that they've had stress.
   (笑声) 牙医报告说人们有磨牙。 磨牙的人去见牙医, 说他们感到有压力。
60.And so there is an increase in people having to have their fillings replaced.
   于是,越来越多的人不得不替换他们补牙所用的材料。

61.Guns, gun sales, according to the FBI, who does background checks, are up almost 25 percent since January.
   负责检查背景的联邦调查局说 七月份以来,持枪数和枪支销售上涨了几乎25%。
62.Vasectomies are up 48 percent, according to the Cornell institute.
   又据康奈尔研究院 输精管切除手术增多了48%。
63.And lastly, but a very good point, hopefully not related to the former point I just made, which is that shark attacks are at their lowest level from 2003.
   最后,很好的一点 希望和我们前面提到的一点没关系? 那就是,鲨鱼袭人事件也处于2003年以来的最低水平。
64.Does anybody know why?
   有人知道原因吗?
65.No one is at the beach. So there is a bright side to everything.
   没有人去海滩。所以任何事物都有光明的一面。
66.But seriously, what we see happening, and the reason I want to stress that the consumer is not in retreat, is that this is a tremendous opportunity
   不过严肃点说,正在发生的事情 以及我想强调消费者并未撤退的原因是: 这对消费者而言是一个巨大的机遇。
67.for the consumer, who drove us into this recession, to lead us right back out.
   消费者将我们带入衰退, 但也能借此机遇引导我们走出衰退。
68.And what I mean by that is that we can move from mindless consumption to mindful consumption. Right?
   我的意思是,我们可以从不假思索的消费 变为深思熟虑的消费。对吗?
69.If you think about the last three decades, the consumer has moved from savvy about marketing in the '90s, to gathering all these amazing social and search tools in this decade,
   如果你想想过去30年, 消费者从90年代的信奉市场知识 变化到近十年的收集各种社会工具和搜索工具。
70.but the one thing that has been holding them back is the ability to discriminate.
   但是,有一样东西阻挡了他们的前进,那就是判断能力。
71.By restricting their demand, consumers can actually align their values with their spending, and drive capitalism and business, to not just be about more, but be about better.
   消费者因限制了自己的需求, 而能让他们的价值取向与消费相结合 并驱动资产主义和商业 到不只更多而是更好的境界。
72.We're going to explain that right now.
   接下来我会解释这一点。
73.Based on Y&R's BrandAsset Valuator, proprietary tool of VML and Young & Rubicam, we set out to understand what's been happening in the crisis
   根据Y&R的品牌资产评估机构, VML 和 Young & Rubicam的专有工具, 我们开始了解到金融危机
74.with the consumer marketplace.
   在消费者市场引发的事情。
75.We found a couple of really interesting things.
   我们发现了一些相当有趣的事情。
76.We're going to go through four value-shifts that we see driving new consumer behaviors, that offer new management principles.
   我们研究了4种价值转变, 这些变化引导我们找到新的消费者行为, 也提供了新的管理法则。
77.The first cultural value shift that we see is this tendency toward something we call liquid life.
   第一个文化价值转变是, 生活有种转向所谓液态生活的趋势。
78.This is the movement from Americans defining their success on having things, to having liquidity, because the less excess that you have around you,
   美国人对成功的定义由资产的多寡 变为是否拥有液态生活。 因为,一个人周围的过度行为越少,
79.the more nimble and fleet of foot you are.
   他的行动速度会越发灵敏。
80.As a result, d谷class谷 consumption is in.
   低调消费也因此流行,
81.D谷class谷 consumption is the whole idea that spending money frivolously makes you look a little bit anti-fashion.
   低调消费是指盲目的消费 似乎与流行趋势不相符。
82.The management principle is dollars and cents.
   这个管理法则是金钱,
83.So let's look at some examples of this d谷class谷 consumption that falls out of this value.
   那么,先来看看一些低调消费 脱离价值的例子。
84.First things is we see something must be happening when P. Diddy vows to tone down his bling.
   第一件事是,P. Diddy(吹牛老爹)宣称不再穿戴华丽闪亮的服装时, 一定有什么事发生了。

   我们也看到未来趋势朝向 低调旅游发展,对吧?
93.Agritourism, going to vineyards and going to farms.
   农业旅游,人们走入葡萄园和农田。

103.Another quick example of these types of movements is the rise of Zynga.

176.Then we also look at the idea of cow-pooling, which is the whole phenomenon of consumers organizing together to buy meat from organic farms
   接下来,再看看合资买牛的构想, 这个现象完全是 消费者自己组织行动, 去那些他们知道安全可控的农场购买肉类;
177.that they know is safe and controlled in the way that they want it to be controlled.
   这样他们总能掌握相关的信息。
