Mr. Dietrich and his colleagues make flying cars, which he believes can ease some of China's woes. 这正是Terrafugia首席执行长迪特里希(Carl Dietrich)认为他在中国既能找到消费者又找能到投资者的原因之一。迪特里希和他的同事生产会飞的汽车，他相信该产品可以在一定程度上缓解中国的堵车问题。 'China is experiencing a lot of the pains of becoming an industrialized nation,' he said, citing traffic congestion and air pollution as examples. 'There is a clear need' for flying cars in China. Mr. Dietrich says he has made two visits to China in the past four months to sound out possible investors. 他说，中国正经历着成为一个工业化国家的诸多痛苦，比如交通拥堵和空气污染等。他表示，中国“显然需要”会飞的车。迪特里希称，他在过去四个月来两次到访中国，寻觅可能的投资者。 Terrafugia needs some wind beneath its improbable wings.
