Chapter 1423 I speak for myself!
It’s not easy for you, nor is it easy for me, no one can do it!
Andy naturally knew that it was not easy for everyone to make a living, but now he would not accept and understand those people and things he didn't like.
Because pig determines the head, thinking determines the height!
Andy is now the boss and controls more than 20 companies. He has been telling himself that in business, he will become more cold-blooded and demanding!
In his previous life, he never dreamed that he could cut thousands of employees and let so many people lose their jobs because of his own decision! In order to consolidate his power, he cleaned up the company's management and kicked away the founder...
To be honest, subordinates can treat the company as a platform for their own development stage, but Andy cannot. These companies are not what their subordinates call "being their own children", but the business life of Andy Smith! Once the company fails to operate, subordinates can pat their butts and leave and continue to find another company. What about Andy?
He finally came through time and earned these assets by relying on the advantage of foresight. He is not the Virgin. He uses his own interests to understand others!
He is a human, not a god! Even if he has some advantages, this advantage cannot make up for his own shortcomings. Especially with the development of scale, his concerns about the fate of all assets are really like walking on thin ice and cannot tolerate any mistakes.
How many people are pointing at him and Andy Smith, and how many people hope to get financial benefits from him? For Andy now, he can no longer be cold-blooded and move forward, because even the team around him will continue to push Andy, the big boss, forward for personal interests.
Andy can see the future development trends clearly, but he cannot distinguish between human hearts and human nature. The only thing he can do is to be vigilant and keep himself thinking rationally at all times.
All of this has led to his tendency to be profit-first in risk assessment and choice of strategic decision-making, avoiding failure and lacking human touch.
"Rubbish!"
The next day, in the conference room, Andy looked at the advertising creativity taken out by the advertising department, with a cold face and a sneer on the corner of her mouth. She threw the documents in her hand onto the conference table without hesitation.
"I want to invite a group of Victoria's Secret angels to advertise, but what is the creativity of this tm? Even if they are asked to wear bikini, si socks, green aprons, Christmas hats, and twist their waists in Starbucks store, setting up Christmas trees is a hundred times better than this creativity!"
The head of the advertising department and his subordinates all turned red, and were as if they were sarcastic by Andy. The executives in the conference room finally realized the difficult side of the young chairman, the venomous snake, which has been circulating outside the outside world.
"Either beautiful music is paired with beautiful pictures, or you can take a warm Christmas theme. I will come up with a satisfactory plan for me before getting off work today. I will wait in the office!"
Andy looked at the two subordinates of the advertising department indifferently and continued lightly: "Have those Victoria's Secret Angels been in contact?"
"We have already contacted it. Adriana Lima has set off. Alexander Ambrosho has also set off from Brazil. The others will also arrive in Seattle tomorrow." The head of the advertising department replied hurriedly.
Andy looked at the other party, nodded slightly, and turned to Howard Schultz, who had not spoken aside, and chuckled: "Howard, recently the media requested that Starbucks customers on the six networks to leave their community Starbucks stores together, but this is also impossible. We must correct the consequences of blind expansion."
Andy nodded in agreement, chuckled helplessly and said, "I received a call from President-elect O'Hainiu before. He is very concerned about our layoff plan. By the way, he will go to Starbucks in Chicago to experience it recently. You must be prepared. You must know that he is the hottest superstar now. You must seize the opportunity and make a good publicity."
Including Howard Schultz, everyone in the conference room had brilliant eyes, looking at the young chairman one by one, and became more and more impressed. No one was a fool. Being elected president made such a decision is definitely a huge relationship with himself, the young chairman.
"Last night, I received another call from President Xiao Feishang, which was about our layoffs. To be honest, I didn't expect that there would be so many people who would care about our normal layoffs!
However, Starbucks’ reform is imperative. Even if many people don’t want to see it or accept this plan, there is no way. Howard, let it go, I support you, and the board of directors will firmly support you!"
"Thank you for your support from the Chairman!" Howard Schultz looked at Andy with great gratitude and said, "You know, he had laid off employees and closed the store before, but under tremendous pressure."
Closed 6 stores and laid off 12,000 employees. This is not something that can be easily solved by just talking. The pressure from the outside world, internal doubts, dissatisfaction and anger of the laid off employees, distrust of investors, pressure from local governments, etc., combined, it makes Howard Schultz unable to resist.
Finally, all tall ones came to hold on!
After Andy Smith's acquisition, Howard Schultz and Andy communicated, he was not rejected at all. In addition to being useless, he would consider himself in it. More importantly, Andy Smith is a chairman who can delegate power, interests first, and employ people. This has more advantages and helps Howard, who rein charges Starbucks.
After the meeting, Andy returned to his chairman's office, carrying the coffee sent by the interim secretary, leaned against the boss's chair, and looked at the top of the pile of newspapers placed on the desk, "Starbucks' profit plummeted by 95% in the fourth quarter and was forced to lower himself."
Andy couldn't help but raise his lips and sneered. He really knew the urination of these media. Because of his entry, after a short period of sought after, facing Starbucks' new store closure and layoff plans, these media began to collectively slander Starbucks.
What's more, it is believed that the entry into Starbucks is the end of Andy Smith's undefeated legend and the Waterloo of Andy, a business genius.
These media were trapped in collective self-satisfaction, and it seemed that seeing Andy’s failure was what made them happiest.
As for the fact that the crazy expansion plan in the past two years had nothing to do with Andy, the fact that this group of bastards was collectively ignored. What is paying for crazy expansion, what is the sequelae of expansion, and whether the glory of the past can be reproduced is still an unknown argument for the negative.
As for whether there are people or forces behind this, Andy can guess with his toes, and there are definitely more than one or two!
Looking at these newspapers, tsk, except for their own newspapers, there is no one who does not comment on Starbucks' new plan. The concern and attention it showed really makes Andy funny.
However, it also made him alert. It seemed that his rampage in this economic crisis had offended many people!
Putting down the coffee cup, Andy smiled, reached out and pressed the answering machine on the desk, called the temporary secretary in, handed his cell phone to the secretary, and asked her to take a photo for him.
Andy stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, blocking the sun, spreading her arms, holding a Starbucks super-large cup in her hand, tilting her chin, closing her eyes, and making an intoxicated expression.
"Click"
After the photo was taken, Andy smiled and took the phone, looked at it, nodded with satisfaction, and asked the secretary to leave, and opened his ins.
“What can you do in ten seconds?
The blank time always seems long.
Then, with me, close your eyes and take a deep breath.
ah……
Feel relaxed?
Enjoy relaxing moments at Starbucks!
I'm Andy Smith, I'm speaking for myself!"
