据彭博社报道，比亚迪超越大众，成为2023年中国最畅销的汽车品牌。请看本报周四的报道：

BYD Co. overtook Volkswagen Group (VW) as China’s best-selling car brand in 2023, clear evidence its all-in bet on electric vehicles (EVs）is paying dividends and helping it pass some of the world’s biggest legacy names.

报道中的pay dividends就是“见成效、带来良好回报”。例如：

All that extra training is paying dividends.

比别人在训练上多花的时间带来了良好的成效。
