I mean, you can make great savings through bulk purchase.

大批购买是可以省大钱的。

Dr. Gottlieb said the F.D.A. would look closely at whether JUUL and the other manufacturers were allowing bulk purchases of products through their own websites - a practice where the buyer could then sell to minors.

戈特利布博士说，F.D.A.会仔细调查JUUL和其他制造商是否允许零售商通过他们的网站批发购买——这样一来他们就可以向未成年人出售该产品了。

So the downside of a private market for the pharmaceutical companies is that there won't be this huge amount of bulk purchases that governments can do, you know, billions of dollars in a single contract.

因此， 对于制药公司而言， 私人市场的不利之处在于，政府无法在一份合同中进行数十亿美元的大宗采购。

Many bargains are available for bulk purchases. This is where the social networks come in. Pinduoduo, founded in 2015 and now worth $175bn, enables groups, often formed via WeChat, to haggle with merchants, especially on groceries.

批量购买有各种砍价的空间。这就轮到社交网络出场了。成立于2015年的拼多多现在市值1750亿美元，让消费者可以组团——通常是通过微信来拼团——与商户讨价还价，尤其是对日用品。
