二、在線企業與電子商務對企業的影響
英文原文:E-business and e-commerce have increased the speed and ease of business transactions and, as a result, competition is intense. Business must adjust constantly to new technologies, integrate newer and faster systems and meet the needs of people around the world. Inventories are no longer kept in preparation for orders; rather, products are prepared specifically for consumers.
