Alibaba’s forecast implies sales of up to $34.3bn in the year to the end of March. 彭博(Bloomberg)数据显示，此前分析师们预计2018财年营收将达到314.2亿美元。阿里巴巴的预测表明，其在截至明年3月底的一年里营收将高达343亿美元。 The bullish call highlights the rise of Alibaba, founded by former teacher — and now China’s richest man — Jack Ma. The ecommerce group has spawned an entire ecosystem comprising logistics, payment and cloud data centres which has made the company, along with fellow tech titans Baidu and Tencent, a big part of daily life in China. 这一乐观预测突显了阿里巴巴的崛起，其创始人马云(Jack Ma)曾经是一名教师，现在是中国首富。这家电商集团已经催生了一个完整的生态系统，包括物流、支付和云数据中心，使该公司和另外两家科技巨擘——百度(Baidu)和腾讯(Tencent)——成为中国日常生活的重要组成部分。 The guidance puts Alibaba, which in May recorded its biggest quarterly rise in revenues since its blockbuster initial public offering in 2014, on track for its biggest annual underlying rise so far, said Maggie Wu, chief financial officer, addressing analysts at the company’s investor day. 首席财务官武卫(Maggie Wu)在该公司的投资者日对分析师们表示，这一指引意味着阿里巴巴将实现迄今最大幅度的年度基础业绩增长。今年5月，阿里巴巴报告了自2014年进行巨额首次公开发行(IPO)以来最大的季度营收增长。 Last year revenues increased by 56 per cent, but that included Lazada, the Southeast Asian ecommerce group that was consolidated into Alibaba’s numbers from April. Stripping that out, said Ms Wu, would have whittled last year’s growth of 56 per cent back to 44-45 per cent. 2017财年营收增长了56%，但那包括东南亚电商集团Lazada，其数字从去年4月份起合并至阿里巴巴的业绩数字。武卫表示，剔除这一因素后，2017财年的增幅将从56%降至44%至45%。 “[This] means by having such a big business, a larger busines
