A: Let's go! Accompany me to buy a pair of sneakers after work. I'd like to exercise more when it gets warmer.

走吧, 下班陪我去买双运动鞋, 天气更暖和了,我也要多运动。

(zǒuba, xiàbān péiwǒ qù mǎishuānɡ yùndònɡxié, tiānqì ɡènɡnuǎnhuole, wǒyěyào duōyùndònɡ.)

B: Recently, the price of some sky-high priced shoes are almost 50,000 yuan ($7,668), which is more than 30 times higher than the reference price. Why do you have to buy shoes at such a time?

最近有些天价鞋的售价已接近五万元, 比参考售价涨出30多倍,你怎么在这个时候去买鞋？

(zuìjìn yǒuxiē tiānjiàxiéde shòujià yǐjiējìn wǔwànyuán, bǐcānkǎo shòujià zhǎnɡchū sānshí duōbèi, nǐzěnme zàizhèɡeshíhou qù mǎixié?)

A: It's okay, I don't want to buy a limited edition. And sportswear brand Li-Ning has already responded to the hype. From the perspective of the brand, the company does not want to have any connection with the shoe hype circle.

没事, 我又不买限量款。而且李宁公司也已经回应了, 从品牌的角度考虑, 公司并不想与炒鞋圈有任何关联。

B: What are the specific measures?

具体有什么措施呢？

(jùtǐ yǒushénme cuòshīne?)

A: To prevent someone from using the software to snap up limited edition shoes, the company will check IP addresses online from the backend.

为了防止有人利用软件抢购限量版的鞋, 在线上, 公司将从后台核对IP地址。
