The students are getting ready for a trade show in New York,like this one sponsored by the non profit educational group Virtual Enterprises International.Students from around the United States showcase business projects.“Throughout the year they’re developing their business plan, implementing3 their business model, developing websites, practicing interesting shows, making sales to different companies and market places.”

This student project goes a step further than other virtual businesses allowing students to raise virtual money by selling stocks just like on Wall Street.“And then we also have to look up things such as insurance policies, such as advertising4.We have to create the monthly budgets so were able to make sure our money is being put out there efficiently5.”
这个学生项目比其他虚拟企业更进一步，允许学生通过出售股票筹集虚拟资金，就像在华尔街一样。“然后我们还得查一些东西，比如保险政策，比如广告。我们必须制定月度预算，这样才能确保我们的资金得到有效利用。”
Students face all the problems of running a business.“We have 26 employees which is a lot for a brand new company and so that’s all that’s obviously been a big challenge for us.”With a big job title comes responsibility, says the student company’s chief executive officer. “It’s hard to be the CEO and have everyone look up to you and expect great things from you,especially when you know I am so young and I have so little experience of the business world,so it’s been a little bit of a challenge to you know come into class and have a plan ready for everyone every day.”
学生们面临着经营企业的所有问题。“我们有二十六名员工，对于一家全新的公司来说，这是一笔不小的数目，所以这对我们来说显然是一个巨大的挑战。”这家学生公司的首席执行官表示，职位越高，责任越大。”很难成为首席执行官并且每个人都尊敬你,并期望你做伟大的事情,特别是当你知道我很年轻,我有很少商业世界的经验,所以这是一个有点挑战。你知道进入教室,每天每个人都有一个准备好的计划了。”
But the students say they’re having fun while meeting the challenge that are learning how to run a business.
