在特朗普政府的政策影响下,阿里巴巴集团正在收缩其在美国硅谷的投资。请看本报周五的报道: Alibaba Group Holding Ltd. is scaling back its presence in Silicon Valley, a sign that the Trump administration’s crackdown on Chinese investment in U.S. companies is casting a chill. After a flurry of dealmaking, Alibaba’s corporate venture arm has announced only one fresh investment in the United States this year, leading a US$26.4 million funding round in a New York and Tel Aviv data-analysis startup called SQream Technologies. And that’s a tiny deal compared with the hundreds of millions Alibaba lavished on high-profile U.S. firms such as Magic Leap, Jet.com and Snap Inc. 报道中的scale back就是“相应缩减”,例如: The president’s proposal to scale back the government’s social welfare spending has caused a great deal of controversy. 总统关于削减政府社会福利支出的提议在公众中引起了很大争议。 |
