"Mr. Goyinzueta, hahaha, I remember him! He is a person with great management skills. Is he now the president of Coca-Cola? He has finally taken the right path!"

The exam week in December went by very quickly.

Almost in the blink of an eye, Christmas vacation was coming again. Before leaving, Carter came to the School of Management and found Professor Thompson to learn more about the deeds of the Coca-Cola CEO.

Being fully prepared is not just about Yale's sponsorship. I believe many people have heard of Buffett's investment in Coca-Cola stock. Carter said he doesn't care about such a giant Georgia company. That is a lie.

But right now, Coca-Cola's stock value is as high as 4.3 billion U.S. dollars, and its business chain is also huge. Except for having contact with some of Coca-Cola's marketing staff, Carter actually doesn't know much about Coca-Cola.

Now that I have the opportunity to get in touch with the CEO of Coca-Cola, I naturally can't let it go...

"What does it mean to be on the right path?"

"Hahaha, because that's what he should be: a manager! Do you know what that kid did when he first joined Coca-Cola? Chemical engineer, my God! He was actually a technician! Although, I don't deny that he was in chemistry class

Professor Cynthia Singer once praised him highly for his achievements, but compared to technology, management is where his real talent lies!"

Professor Thompson smiled so much that the age lines on his forehead wrinkled together, and his eyes were scorched, as if he had returned to the past:

"I remember he was ten years younger than me. He must be 48 years old this year. When I first met him, I was not a professor, and Yale did not have a school of management. His weird southern accent, oh, by the way, he

The accent is really weird! It’s like a mixture of accents from Georgia, Alabama, Florida, Mississippi and other states!”

“Like Indian English?”

"No, it's Japanese English! I'm not talking about Japanese people, you know? It's just Japanese..."

"Hahahaha, I understand! It seems that before I go to see him, I might have to prepare a translator."

"Hahaha, it's not that bad. After so many years, his accent can't be as weird as before."

After making a little joke to liven up the atmosphere, Professor Thompson looked at Carter with a smile:

"Speaking of which, he is somewhat similar to you. I think his greatest talent in management lies in his long-term perspective. Compared with immediate interests, he values ​​growth more! When we held a model competition, almost all

Students are all thinking about where to start to reduce the company's operating costs and improve work efficiency. He is the only one who is silently designing a set of systems and norms that can inspire people and operate in the long term."

"In the business ethics class, I told you about how to run a business. While considering economic benefits, we must also consider the issue of sustainable development. It seems that he planted this root for me. It is as short-lived as fireworks and as brilliant as fireworks.

We have seen many enterprises, but few of them can survive to this day."

No anti-theft

"I often think that as business managers, we are just like pilots flying airplanes. While we learn how to make the corporate plane take off, we must also learn to land! If a pilot who can't land gets into the sky, hahahaha

..."

"indeed..."

Thinking of Jack Ma in the past, from "Daddy Horse" to...

Carter secretly memorized these words of Professor Thompson:

"Does he have any personal interests or hobbies? You know, this will make it easier for me to prepare some gifts for visiting him!"

"Hahaha, you don't have to worry about this. Mr. Goyinzueta is a Cuban, and he has the unique hospitality of Cubans. Just prepare normally. Of course, if you can prepare some special delicacies, such as roasted milk

Pig, lobster, ice cream and so on would be even better!”

Cubans?!

Carter raised his eyebrows, and suddenly thought of the acquisition call he had received at HT Company from Coca-Cola...

Thanks to Professor Thompson, Carter temporarily put the phone call behind him and prepared the gift for visiting Goinzueta.

Carter plans to get roasted suckling pig from North Carolina. I remember Julian’s brother once said that North Carolina’s roasted pig is famous throughout the United States!

As for lobster, it's definitely Boston. Although he doesn't know what this bolong is, he has heard about it often in the future, so it must be right... Then go back and let Master Chen process the whole spicy lobster...

Although it is a bit strange, it is also a kind of intention, isn't it? At least, people in Central and South America generally eat spicy food more than Americans.

When Carter had everything ready, the time had come to December 16, 1981.

For students, it has already entered the holidays, but for people in society, it is still far from the annual vacation! It is a perfect time to visit!

"Hello, I'm Carter Black. I have an appointment with Mr. Goinzueta this afternoon."

After waiting outside the Coca-Cola Company for a while, Carter picked up the gifts and walked to the front desk. Of course, the roasted suckling pig and other things were naturally delivered to the restaurant first...

"Carter? Hahaha, nice to meet you, young man."

Goyinzueta indeed had the enthusiasm of the Cuban people. When he saw Carter's figure appearing at the door of the office, he immediately stood up and came out. There was no pretense of being the president of a large company.

It’s just that accent, it’s really weird!

"Good afternoon, Senior Geyinzueta! I'm taking the liberty of visiting you. I hope it won't disturb your work."

As a visiting alumnus, there was no need to address him as an unfamiliar gentleman. Carter quickly established a friendship:

"Before coming here this time, Professor Thompson also asked me to bring you a letter. He said that you haven't contacted him, an old friend, for a long time, and he was very angry!"

"Hahaha, indeed, this is my problem. Twenty years have passed and I have been working, working, and working, and I have indeed ignored the feelings of my old friends. Sit down! I deliberately took three hours of work today.

Time, don’t talk about work, just talk about the beautiful memories!”

After leading Carter into the office, Goyinzueta went straight to the tea room to make coffee. Judging from the surprised reaction of the secretary outside the door, it was obvious that the other party meant what he said.

This time, he really didn't plan to talk about work. After leaving behind his identity as the president of Coca-Cola, a junior brother made a cup of coffee for the visiting junior brother...

It's not like being in an office, it's more like receiving guests at home!

"What grade are you in this year? Come and try the coffee from our hometown, Cuba!"

"Thank you, I'm a freshman this year."

"Live in an old campus? Is the green park behind Building B repaired now?"

"It has been repaired for many years, and now there are free concerts in the park every day!"

"You actually have this benefit?"

"Hahaha, of course, the students at the Conservatory of Music don't even go to the piano room now, and hang out in the park every day! It's a pity that no matter how beautiful the music is, it just feels noisy after listening to it too much. Now the old campus can

Not a pleasant place to live...”

"Hahaha, don't think so! After you are sorted, you will miss the time you had in the old campus. The autumn carnival, the freshman party, and the Halloween party..."
Chapter completed!
