但是这个argument并没有说作者希望给公司带来更多效益，或者希望卖出去更多的产品，而是明确地指出 他们的final goal 是reduce production cost. 这种情况下我们是否需要向外延伸，谈及降低Production cost对于公司效益、公司品牌、竞争力等各方面的影响？

The following appeared in a presentation by the chief production manager of a machine partsmanufacturing company at a management meeting:
“Our factory in Cookville is our most advanced and efficient. It is capable of producing ten drill bits foreach dollar of production costs, whereas none of our other factories can produce more than seven drillbits per dollar of production costs. Therefore, we can reduce our overall drill bit production costs bydevoting the Cookville factory entirely to drill bit production. Since reducing the production costs ofindividual machine parts is the only way to achieve our larger goal of reducing our overall productioncosts, dedicating the Cookville factory entirely to drill bit production and shifting all other machine partproduction to our other factories will help us to attain that larger goal.”
