"I don't mean that, but if Mr. Carnegie had to think that way, I wouldn't be able to." Sheffield supported the table with both hands, and said indifferently, "Any business must have some sincerity. If it is such a negotiation, believe it No results can be reached. The negotiations are mutual respect, not that I came to listen to the truth. "
"This is not an attitude of proactive negotiation!" Carnegie said unhurriedly. "Pittsburgh is the home base of Carnegie Steel Corporation. I am the master here, but William has a bad temper."
Carnegie spoke unhurriedly, reminding that it was not New York, nor Arlington or New Orleans. He is the master here, and he should have had a strong attitude, and asking a rhetorical question is not excessive.
"I believe Mr. Carnegie doesn't mean that!" Rockefeller Jr. said, "William is of an age, and he is more efficient in his work. When I first started the cooperation between Standard Oil and United Company, I couldn't say how smooth it was, and I also believe that he What I just said doesn't mean anything threatening at all. I have seen this sincerely sincerely many times. "
"I just said it casually. In fact, I think that with my own wealth, there is no problem for women to grow up safely." Carnegie also took a step back. "Of course it is good to take care of other companies. It is nothing if not."
"Well, of course you have this ability. After all, it has only been a few years since the suppression of strikes." Sheffield hummed, and said yin and yang, "You are the boss in our country who is the best at using union power. Other factories raise wages. In the process, they wait until other factories can't maintain it. They are taking acquisitions. Finally, they turn their faces and force the workers to either cut wages or layoffs. Few people can resist this combination. "
The last strike event eventually turned into a conflict. Isn't this set of boxing finally released?
"No one can buy me or sell me!" Sheffield stretched out her fingers and shook her hand. "There are six other regiments in the Texas Army, and there are retired armed men. The company also has four overseas bases, namely Kuwait, Cuba, Liberia, and Panama. The overseas joint company has over 10,000 armed forces. I am not very threatening and it is considered very friendly. I will not accept the threat of the reverse. And Mr. Carnegie, you The trouble I just made is in my eyes. I hate this blackmail. "
Carnegie's trouble just now has been defined as touching porcelain in Sheffield's eyes. It is basically Carnegie intimidating through the loopholes in his words, hoping to gain the upper hand in the language, but the slave owner does not eat this set.
"William, you just seemed a little too impulsive." After Rockefeller Jr. and Sheffield left Carnegie's headquarters, they complained helplessly, "It's not like you are the usual, why?"
"Rejected by Carnegie is better than my financial ability, but it is really better than the Morgan League. This is just a step." Sheffield tilted her head and stretched her poker face. "The 1.5 times premium is actually no problem, but you and I are small. If Morgan is being fooled in this way, it is no longer a matter of money. I spent money and it was humiliating. I wo n’t do such a thing. It ’s a big deal. I hid in the south and did n’t come over. In the Yankee group, you are far more prestigious than me. I only appeared in the face of the alliance in this negotiation. It should not affect your personal design. You can talk as much as you want. "
Sheffield now wants to be a spoiler. In fact, as he said, even if this merger really breaks down, it will have no effect on the joint company. Now the joint company lacks not the opportunity to make money. It's real capital, tossing borrowed money everywhere, not investing in mergers and acquisitions, and making money in other industries.
Since it's all about making money, the only difference is that the method of making money is different. What does it matter? Just make money!
"Leave the rest of the negotiations to me!" Rockefeller Jr. also knows that this is Sheffield giving himself a step. If the financial resources can't match Morgan and his sons, the reason for the breakdown of the negotiations is more pleasant to say.
Thinking about it this way, Rockefeller Jr. felt that his brother-in-law, not right, and his partners had become a little bit great. He simply sacrificed his personal interests and preserved the reputation of the two companies.
Today's series of changes may bring about a series of reactions, but the unhappiness of Sheffield and Carnegie will indeed leave a backward path for Standard Oil and United. In the ten thousandth step, the only way is to join. The two companies can completely give up the dominance of the steel industry, and even sell their own steel companies to Morgan, as long as the Morgan Alliance can afford it.
Of the three major companies involved in the acquisition, Sheffield cares the most about it. The most important thing is the father and son of Morgan. The second thing is about Rockefeller Jr. Sheffield is completely successful. Unsuccessful will not affect himself.
Individuals have their own personal affairs. Sheffield does not appear in the subsequent negotiations. The negotiations have completely become Rockefeller Jr. and Morgan Jr., the two most powerful forces in the United States.
Sheffield was naturally not idle. He had his own business. He looked at the stranger and the stranger in front of him, frowning uncertainly, "It was Edith who asked you to come? How did you find here, find me?" what's the matter?"
"Boss William, I didn't expect you to be my peer!" After the visitor saw Sheffield, a flash of light erupted in his eyes, as if he saw an idol in his heart, and quickly introduced himself, "My name is Fisher, yes. People from Chicago, people say you are the king of emerging industries, and I wanted to see you very early. "
"That's all fictitious!" Sheffield waved his hands and looked at him, "Do you know Edith Rockefeller?"
"Ah? I don't know very much. I haven't seen my wife, I just wrote a letter!" Fisher froze a moment before speaking.
"What do you have to do to write a letter to a woman?" Sheffield continued to make side-by-side inquiries, simply forgetting the purpose of the other party, although Edith Rockefeller is not a peerless beauty, and even a little without self-knowledge, always think of herself That is, after all, the fact that the relationship between the husband and wife is there. As a man, good things always have to be hidden. Viewing from Sheffield, this child may be older than himself. Okay, is this okay?
"I heard that Madam is your good friend, so I wrote!" Fisher said again, finally letting Sheffield rest assured, gushed, "Now the businessmen are fighting in the old field. Only you, the boss, boldly intervened in the emerging industry, under huge pressure, protected the Tesla team, and established the automotive industry with another hand, let him flourish, admirable! "
Please continue, don't stop! Sheffield's full face is used. Is it that after entering the legendary American century, his slave owner also has something called a fan?
Although Sheffield never said anything about chicken soup to the media, she could n’t stand the newspaper to praise her boss, and he did take action in emerging industries. Under this kind of praise, it was naturally more popular than some old men. welcome. Although there was also the New Orleans incident, it was not a black issue. The current citizens of the United States have little sympathy for the black community.
Fisher, a believer who was bewitched by the newspaper, thought that his vision might be realized in the king of this new industry. He courageously wrote a letter, which caused today's meeting.
"It seems that I might hear some different news!" Sheffield's pretended restrained posture was also layoffs. Jack Ma spoke very euphemistically. Alibaba's layoffs sent 1,000 talents out every year. This is a place worth learning.
"Mr. William, the washing machine can be driven by electricity!" Fisher said modestly. "In fact, the application of electricity is not just lighting. Many of the labor in our lives can be solved by electricity. I There is a design drawing, the idea may not be mature enough, but I really want to get your advice. I think only you will find the value in it. "
Such things as washing machines have actually appeared for a long time. Steam washing machines appeared 20 years ago, and steam power began to replace manpower. After hundreds of years of development and improvement, the modern steam washing machine has an unparalleled improvement earlier, but the principle is the same. The functions of modern steam washing machines include steam washing and steam drying, using an intelligent water circulation system.
After the steam washing machine, hydraulic washing machines and internal combustion engine washing machines have also appeared one after another. These washing machines of course have their own characteristics. There are currently no electric washing machines on the market. But after all, this should be the ancestor of white goods?
Sheffield looked at Fisher ’s design drawings and compared them with the structure of later generations of washing machines in his mind, but did not point out the differences, but said, "First of all, electric washing machines are definitely the most promising washing machines than any other power. Of washing machines are more promising. "
Fischer's eyes brightened as he said that he thought he was right from Chicago to Pittsburgh. I just wanted to continue. The report outside pushed in, interrupting the communication between two insiders and shouting at Sheffield. Said, "Boss, Mr. John is back!"
"You can't believe it, I won!" Before people arrived, Rockefeller's uncontrollable sound of triumph had already passed in. "I won the little Morgan, I can't believe it, is this?" "
