Chapter 76: Business integrity
How to make workers have greater enthusiasm for work, more abundant physical strength, and obtain the maximum output in the smallest time has always been the thing that the operators are diligently seeking. Investing the profits from the operation in this regard, Rockefeller Jr. deems it reasonable. After all, as a role model for the United States, this is a social obligation that he must shoulder.
Only a very small part of the reason is for the health of the fathers. Only when the health of the old Rockefeller continues to be better can we serve the United States, which is also for the better development of the country.
When personal interests and social responsibilities are integrated, the Rockefeller family will enter the pharmaceutical industry and gather talents in the pharmaceutical industry to work for themselves. The results are of course remarkable. Compared with the drugs used in medicine for cannabis and morphine in the past, the Rockefeller family now has There are the latest research results.
As for whether the athlete's body will change in the future, is it not a citizen's duty to sacrifice for the country? This is the case in this world. Some people contribute money, others contribute. Rockefeller Jr. and Sheffield are the former, but now they need the latter to join.
"We can even take advantage of this opportunity to popularize sports, even if we set up a foundation to promote sports!" Sheffield seems to have thought of more ambitious goals. When it comes to this issue, there is a tendency to stop. More eager than the manager who negotiated between the parties behind the manor.
If you just understand Coubertin and the Olympic Committee behind him, you can understand it as a one-shot sale of positive images. Sheffield felt that this was somewhat superficial, and that a wave of patriotic business was only a short-term gain. In fact, after extending downwards, there are still more long-term benefits. Is it necessary to promote sports equipment? Can sports equipment generate profits?
Even this is not the biggest benefit. The biggest benefit is the promotion of quality education. Because of Coubertin ’s claim, it can also be said to be a model of happy education to a certain extent. As early as a few years ago, Coubertin proposed that the problem of students being overworked due to excessive academic achievement: the only solution is to let the children game.
Of course Sheffield believes that Coubertin must be well-intentioned, but it does not prevent him from misrepresenting the classics. If Sheffield said that, he certainly hopes that citizens can be more stupid, so that they can be fooled. What is the use of learning? When you study for a long time to enter the society and find that the society does not need you, is this not very painful?
The talents of these countries are very painful. Sheffield is actually as painful. If there are many talents in the United States, it is inevitable that one or two peerless geniuses will appear, which will have an impact on the existing order.
If you lead out a useless culture, you don't have to worry about it. When the student enters the society and hits a wall, he will only regret his past behavior, but he cannot blame others. In particular, leaders in various industries cannot be blamed, because these leaders, as Rockefeller Jr. said, would have starved to death if we were not led by us.
Is n’t it good to say something, a decade of trees and a century of trees, for the future stability of the United States, Sheffield is willing to do anything, subverting order is a factor of instability.
"Since I have agreed, I will not regret it. By the way, I would like to ask, does William Brian know?" Rockefeller Jr. asked with a peculiar expression, "This person does not seem to be very friendly to us."
"An ordinary member of the Democratic Party, where does it seem to be an editor now?" Sheffield looked at her thoughtfully, and then remarked, "What's wrong? It seems that the election will not take place next year, or will this person get your attention in particular? It is said that the relationship between the family and the Democratic Party is very good, but with so many Democrats in the House of Representatives and the House of Representatives, it is impossible for me to know who they are. "
"This guy is indeed working as a newspaper editor now, and he has some vulgar comments on our business leaders, always attacking us in the newspaper." Rockefeller Jr. shook his head slightly. . "
"That's you. My family is farming. It's not a business leader. At least it's not." Sheffield hurriedly showed that his attitude was cut. He couldn't stand on this matter at will. As a long-time supporter of the Democratic Party, he did not want to participate too deeply in the general election, especially talking about the Democrats with Rockefeller Jr.
"Just when I didn't say it!" Little Rockefeller smiled and teased his arms around his chest. "The Sheffield family has always been an important supporter of the Democratic Party. I don't mean to provoke the relationship between you. Hope my dear friend, Do n’t think too much about this matter. I understand that farms and plantations in the south are not the same as the interests of the north. "
"In fact, there is nothing different for Standard Petroleum. You and I are both companies that rely on international trade. The local important international is also important. We are all businessmen with an international outlook. High and low tariffs are not for us. The big question. "Sheffield doesn't quite understand. Is an editor so fussing?
Anyway, for Sheffield, if the tariff increase is a big deal, it will be smuggled.
"But this man called for the adoption of labor laws!" Rockefeller Jr. saw Sheffield's uninteresting look and said, "Is it related to you now?"
"I'll talk about it later, do you want to go in and see, what's the two sides talking about?" Sheffield was undecided, and it's too early to talk about these.
When it comes to the cooperation of such large companies, the time of talking for a few months is actually normal. The two of them came naturally to show their sincerity and lay a good foundation for the negotiation.
"I think your family's attitude is very problematic!" Soon, the Rockefeller Jr. returned and complained.
"What's wrong? Aren't you talking?" Sheffield, holding her black back, was overwhelmed with a look on her face. The other party only went in for less than ten minutes. What happened?
"The conditions of your home are too harsh for Standard Oil. I have to explain that I have never seen such a sincere business cooperation." Rockefeller Jr. was a little bit distraught, but he couldn't spit it off. "For today's discussion, I have gone through a long preparation, but you have not shown the sincerity?"
A bodyguard greeted him to lead the black-backed dog, and Sheffield listened solemnly to Little Rockefeller ’s statement, and understood what the other party meant. , The Sheffields still have to draw half of their profits? Well, it seems that it is so harsh. "
People who can make Rockefeller sign unequal treaties do not exist in the United States, and even the old Morgan does not have this ability. In fact, this matter is very simple. Does Texas exist underground? Little Rockefeller believes that the risk is quite high before exploration, Sheffield does not think so, there must be! So this condition is not only harsh, but also a bit too generous.
