In the current mixed pharmaceutical and beverage market in the United States, Coca-Cola has achieved certain results and is considered a relatively well-known brand among them. It has its own sales channels. At least it is much better than its imitator Pepsi-Cola.

However, even Kandler himself could not imagine how big the Coca-Cola shares in his hands would expand in the future. Even in the United States that would dominate the world in the future, there would only be a few Internet giants. Who would have thought that when they first appeared, they could

It has grown to such a terrifying extent.

In fact, Kandler himself is not opposed to being acquired, not to mention being able to embrace the lap of the Rockefeller family, and even get on the line with the Sheffield family, which is popular among Dixie people. This is an opportunity to jump into the upper class society. It can

In his opinion, the value of becoming friends with these two people far exceeded the monetary gain.

Of course, this does not mean that Kandler will sit back and watch his own interests suffer because of his connections. He is still trying his best to fight for his own share. Mergers and acquisitions are okay, but he cannot suffer losses. It would be better if he can make some profits.

Kandler is obviously not the type of Kolbe Bradham. After long consideration, Kolbe Bradham hesitated to sell his career. Kandler agreed very well.

, indicating that when the price is reasonable, there is a price acceptable to both parties.

The key is what price is acceptable to both parties. There is no problem if Kandler wants a premium. The key is how much of the premium. This is a tug-of-war issue between the two parties, and there is no result in the first place.

Under the dim light of the bedroom, two bodies were entangled together. The suppressed breathing gradually subsided. Sheffield said tiredly, "Edith, I don't want to work hard anymore."

"You still have to bear the burden and move forward. The sole heir of the United Company, please take a rest for a while." Edith Rockefeller wiped the sweat from her cheeks, pushed her long hair back, and turned on the lamp thoughtfully.

Sheffield got up and put on his pajamas, hung up a cigarette and started puffing away. He looked exactly like a pretty boy who succumbed to the power of a rich woman because of the heavy social pressure and did not want to continue working hard. In fact, this was no longer the case.

The problem is simply that.

"Are you worried about the failure of the acquisition?" Covering her turbulent mood with a quilt, Edith Rockefeller showed her considerate side and said, "Actually, your family and DuPont are not the same.

Are you someone who likes dirty tricks? You can force him to submit."

"Of course I am prepared, otherwise why do you think John Connor is there? Yesterday's telegram also said that Kandler's daughter has a bad reputation in school and is the type to show off her wealth. Kandler only has a few hundred thousand

The U.S. dollar assets are about the same as President Cleveland’s family property. I really think that I am in the upper class.” Sheffield talked about the cigarette ashes, then changed the topic, “Under normal circumstances, as long as the other party is willing to cooperate, whether it is our family or DuPont

Everyone is unwilling to use the last resort, but Kandler himself is still willing to cooperate. Wanting a premium is a normal businessman's pursuit of profit. It doesn't matter. It's not worth making a fuss about. But if he dares to fool me, just watch...

…I blew up his factory.”

"Then why are you sighing? It makes me unable to invest!" Edith Rockefeller said angrily, "Is there any difficulty?"

"The main reason is that I no longer want to take care of my family's money. I invested a lot last year. Although the funds are slowly returning, there are still many things to do, and I still can't balance the balance of payments." Sheffield said with a look of sadness on his face.

Of course, this look was half-true. He really didn't want to take care of the family anymore, but he didn't even have the money to buy a drink. He just thought that he had decided that he didn't want to work hard anymore, and even his appearance betrayed him.

Let's see if this rich woman can help.

"How could I not help you, but you have to remember that this is my personal help and has nothing to do with the Rockefeller family." The body under the quilt squirmed, and Edith Rockefeller stretched out her bare hands to hug Sheffield, "You still

You have to bear the burden and move forward.”

The sun shines in through the window, and the two of them suddenly become members of the upper class again, no longer as careless as they were yesterday. To talk about the relationship between the two now, all it takes is Edith Rockefeller to say to her husband, "Da Lang"

, it’s time to take medicine.”

Fortunately, Edith Rockefeller's husband McCormick was not a man who never let go. Anyway, the relationship between the two was too weak, and McCormick had already lost patience with his wife who was too maverick.

, the process of dividing property does not need to be solved in a fuss, everything is in a step-by-step process.

"This looks pretty good!" After helping Sheffield finish dressing, she pulled her to the mirror to take a look. Edith Rockefeller nodded with satisfaction. In front of her, Sheffield stretched out his hand to erase the two slender fingerprints on the mirror. This made Edith Rockefeller

Dice Rockefeller is a little embarrassed. Is this considered destroying the body and destroying all traces?

"Everyone will be here in a while!" Edith Rockefeller pushed Sheffield out with a smile. During the morning chat, Sheffield said that Coca-Cola's new packaging can be made into bottles with female curves, so that it can be used in various bottles.

It can have an identification effect in drinks.

Edith Rockefeller was naturally curious and asked Sheffield how he came up with the idea. The answer was, "When you look in the mirror!"

This is how the bottle of Coca-Cola itself came about. When the designer was on a date with his girlfriend, he noticed that she was wearing a sleeve-shaped dress, which made her hips protrude and her waist and legs were slender.

A glass bottle was designed based on the image of a girl. After repeated modifications, not only was the bottle designed to be very beautiful, resembling a graceful girl, but what was even more amazing was that the middle and lower part of the bottle was twisted, like a girl.

The striped skirt she is wearing; and the middle section of the bottle is round and plump, bulging forward and backward like a girl.

Do you know how much this idea was worth? More than ten years later, Coca-Cola spent $6 million to buy the design patent. However, Sheffield, who no longer wanted to work hard, felt that he could earn more from Edith Rockefeller.

When I met with Kandler, the long acquisition negotiations were still going on. Even with the help of dear Edith, the price was still rapidly approaching Sheffield's psychological bottom line.

Although he thought that it was understandable for businessmen to pursue profits, the other party was still a Dixie, so they should not be too stiff. But thinking like this, Sheffield still unconsciously wondered whether he should let the other party become a bastard and solve this problem once and for all.

In the end, the two parties reached an agreement. On the eve of Sheffield's consideration of how to make Candler disappear from the United States, Edith Rockefeller purchased a relative majority of Coca-Cola's shares together with Sheffield for $450,000. Candler retained 100%.

5/5 of the shares and remains an important shareholder.

"This bastard, don't say you're from Dixie anymore!" Sheffield cursed, but he had no objection to the amount of the merger. With this cash-out, Kandler was already a veritable millionaire. He even got along with himself and Rockefeller.

The two lines of the family, if it weren't for the fact that Coca-Cola's market value would be worth hundreds of billions of dollars a hundred years from now, or that Coca-Cola would be worth 20 million dollars just ten years later, Sheffield would have to give Kandler a hard time.

"Okay, I know you are short of funds now, didn't I take it for you? After deducting my symbolic ten percent share, you still hold more than half of the shares, not counting the share you purchased from the stock market earlier.

Share? What do you think now?" Edith Rockefeller comforted Sheffield softly, finally making him calm down, "Delisting?"

As far as she knew, the Sheffield family's properties were not listed, at least there was not a single Sheffield United stock on the market. She thought Sheffield would delist and focus on development in accordance with family tradition.

"No, Pepsi-Cola will not be listed for the time being. Coca-Cola will continue to be listed." Sheffield calmed down and began to think about future development. Pepsi-Cola is still in its infancy and is not qualified to be listed at all. It is more suitable to focus on development. Coca-Cola already has

A certain scale, and he also needs to show his family's strength.

Sheffield hopes that the relationship between the two companies, like the relationship between big blue and green companies, can be as strong as fire and water, but they both want to make money for themselves, focus on each other's hype, and grow simultaneously. Attract the attention of all citizens and kill other competition.

who.

"The current locations for the branch factory are Chicago, Los Angeles and New Orleans." Sheffield considered the location of the cities in the United States and determined the location of the first batch of expanded branch factories.

"Why don't you open a branch factory in Texas? Texas is such a big area?" Edith Rockefeller was shocked. She thought Sheffield would give priority to her hometown, but she didn't expect this to be the case.

"The most popular drink in Texas is a drink called kvass, which was brought over by immigrants from Eastern Europe." Sheffield forced a wry smile, which was a kind of legacy of his grandfather, "the kvass beverage factory,

My family is running the business. And the location of Texas is too remote. New Orleans is the most suitable city. It is right in the middle and covers the entire southern states. As for the western states, Los Angeles is the most suitable location, not to mention Chicago. You

If you live here, you should know the status of this transportation hub, otherwise why would the Democrats and Republicans always come here every election?"

Edith Rockefeller touched the diamond ring between her fingers and nodded in approval. She must admit that what Sheffield said made sense.
