代表 the series of activities
删除插入文的 “within an organisation” 再次想一想吧,解释要清楚些:
A 'value chain' is usually considered as the series of activities which creates a product or service that is valued by customers.
在这里被提到的是 “value chain” 的定义如何.“A value chain” 是 “the series of activities”,好,可是真要知道的是,那是什么样的 “一系列的活动”,是不是?当然,那就是“(one)which creates a product or service that is valued by customers.”(注意 valued” 在这里再次的出现:a value chain ...creates ...value)
一个企业可以有种种产品·服务等,个个都有自己的 “value chain”.那么,“a value chain” 并不是企业的总活动,而只是企业内的 “一系列的活动”(series of activities),所以说 “*within* an organisation”.
