17 Feb, 2023
"Wheeler-dealer" -> nghĩa là người kiếm lợi nhuận cho bản thân, tổ chức của mình qua các phương pháp khôn khéo, linh lợi hay bất chính; nghĩa khác là các hành động, chiến thuật khôn khéo, bất chính.
Ví dụ
Another described (miêu tả) him as a “wheeler-dealer”, and claimed that at the time, staff in Downing Street felt there were some “quite ridiculous (nực cười) arrangements going on” to fund his lifestyle – referring to the way Johnson’s flat redecoration was initially funded before he repaid the costs personally.
If anything, this all feels vaguely reminiscent (gợi lại) of Terry Venables’ abortive spell at Elland Road from 2002 to 2003, the cockney wheeler-dealer being brought in to try and steady a listing ship, only to find that matters were already beyond his control.
Meanwhile, South London wheeler-dealer Gordon Parry and the respected establishment solicitor (cố vẫn pháp luật) Edwyn Cooper set about laundering the proceeds from the stolen gold.
Prosecutors termed Quiros the “wheeler-dealer” of the trio — in it for the money and unwilling to stop the “gravy train” from moving forward.
