Rebirth 79: I opened a bank in the United States

Chapter 468 How much sponsorship do you want?

"Senior, this is a gift from Yaru to me. Are you going to take a look now?"

After chatting for a while and tasting the so-called Cuban coffee, Carter began to bring the topic to the right place.

"Well! Let's take a look together!"

After an almost imperceptible, extremely brief hesitation, Goizueta got up with Carter and took the Yale gift box to the coffee table.
A notebook with a Yale blue cover, the suede appearance, at least before the stain, looks more refined than the one Carter once got; a large photo album, black and white photos of Yale in history and present The color photos form a contrast, and you can look at them page by page. It is indeed easy for people to return to the youthful years.
What followed was a letter sent in the name of the school board. It was said to be sent by the school board, but it was actually a letter printed out by the board of directors. Carter knew the content.The main thing is to talk about things you care about, such as how are you doing outside, is there anything you need help from the school, etc.
Then the subject changed and started to talk about The Game. Yale University sincerely invited XXX graduate XXX to come to participate.He didn't mention the matter of sponsorship, but the meaning was already very obvious!Carter doesn't believe Goizueta can't see it
"This gift is great! It reminded me of the past in an instant, and I don't know what is going on with Professor Singer now, and whether he is still alive. You see, this is her. She is a very kind and academically rigorous old teacher. I can't tell you how helpful it is"

Ok? !

Looking at the middle-aged man on the opposite sofa with a happy face, and reaching out to greet him to look at the photo album together, Carter was a little surprised: I really didn't see why I came, did I? !No way? !
"Professor Singer is now living in New London, and the two have lived there since her husband retired from the submarine force. So I think if you have free time this year, you can go back to Connecticut, your second home."

No matter how surprised he was, on the surface Carter had no choice but to follow what the other party said.Fortunately, I was well prepared. I learned about Professor Singer's whereabouts from Professor Thompson, so I wouldn't be unable to talk at this time.

"Really? Then she will be killed this year, and I will not have a good life this year. It has only been half a year since I took office in May. There are still many things to deal with in the company. I'm afraid. Look at me, I don't talk about work , why again."

Haha laughed, and patted the door of his head pretending to be sorry.Goizueta closed the album and stood up:
"Let's go, let's go outside for some activities. It's a rare rest time, staying in the office all the time, it's still too serious! Golf? Yes."

"Robert, I think you need to look at this, the 5-gallon aluminum soda bottle adds too much cost. The cost of going back and forth to replace wear and tear has accounted for 16% of our total revenue in the cold beverage business, and the cold beverage The profit of the business is only

Just as the two got up, a person broke into the office.

In other words, it wasn't breaking in at all, but someone who opened the door of the office and walked in as if going home.Don't even need a secretary's biography, obviously Goizueta's cronies
The visitor held a report in his hand, lowered his head, and frowned.After chanting for a while, I suddenly found that there was a stranger in the office, so I quickly stopped the topic:
"Sorry, I didn't know you had guests today. According to the schedule, you are on vacation in the afternoon"

"Hahaha, it's okay. Donald, my good friend, is also the CEO of Coca-Cola."

Walking to the person who came, Goizueta took the document in the other person's hand, without even intending to open it, and introduced it to both parties:

"Don, I am indeed taking a break today. I want to meet my junior, Carter, Carter Black!"

"Hello. Why do I feel that your name is a bit familiar, are you from Georgia?"

While shaking hands with Donald, Carter suddenly heard this sentence
Carter, who was thinking about the difference between the president and the CEO, and wondering about the relationship between the two, subconsciously nodded, and then...
"You are the founder of HT?! Yes, it must be you, I remember that voice is very young, and hey, Robert, you have some background as a junior!"

Donald exclaimed excitedly, waking Carter up.When he came back to his senses, he saw two pairs of big eyes staring straight at him.
At this moment, Carter recalled the voice of the representative of Coca-Cola who came to talk about the acquisition
"So, the last time I spoke to you was you? Mr. Keogh?!"

"Yes, it's me. You come here this time"

Donald's eyes wobbled oddly at Goizueta and Carter.
I suspect that you have a PY deal, and even have a little resentment, and look a little optimistic about the show, which made Carter confused.

"I was entrusted by Yale to visit senior Goizueta this time. Of course, I personally admired it very much, but I never knew that the president of Coca-Cola was actually my senior, otherwise I would have come here long ago. I'm bothering you!"

Seeing that Goizueta didn't mean to answer, Carter explained with a smile.

"It should be the chairman of the board of directors. Your information is wrong, hahaha! If this is the case, then I won't bother you, let's talk!"

Donald came in a hurry, and left in a hurry.And since he arrived, Goizueta hasn't said much.
Until the two got into the car heading to the golf course
"Carter, maybe I should call you Mr. Black?"

"Carter is fine. Didn't you just say that? We're not talking about work today."

"Hey, you cunning boy! Don't you want sponsorship anymore?!"

Goizueta, who was not choked by the "rebound" of Carter's hand, raised his hand angrily and slapped Carter's shoulder.

"You all know?!"

"How could I not know? Yale's routine, no, it should be said that the entire Ivy League's routine has never made any progress. Similar letters have been received every six months since I graduated, and once a year if it is slow. , to this year, it has been more than [-] years! All the letters from Yale can add up to fill a big box! Don’t worry, you can’t escape it. From the beginning of graduation, give yourself a box ready to hold letters! The first letter should arrive on your desk within three months of your graduation."

"From 0.5% of the salary when I first graduated, maybe a few dollars, or even a few dollars, to now, oh no, this time I am a little bit better, and I actually invited us back to school, but I also know that you... have a bad appetite this time. Small? How much sponsorship do you plan to ask for?"

"This"

Goizueta's blunt questioning made Carter difficult.Sponsorship is not a loan, how can you ask such a question? !

"Mr. Goizueta, I don't know what you are thinking at the moment?"
