Seattle, Washington.

The last time Andy came here to check out his private plane internal modification plan, but after a short stop, he quickly left.

And this time, he needs to stay here for a few days, so that he can better manage the Starbucks company after he becomes the chairman of Starbucks.

Although he is not good at specific operations, he is willing to delegate power to his professional managers, but first of all, a prerequisite is that Andy Smith can easily take full control of the company.

Key parts of finance, personnel, and strategic direction can let him act as a guide. A professional manager is only a tool for him to control the company, not an anti-customer.

At the Seattle Tacoma International Airport, the Boeing 747 taxied slowly, docked next to the hangar on the private apron, and the long-awaited ladder car quickly connected to the cabin door.

"Uh-bang!"

The cabin door opened, bodyguards went ahead, Andy and rosy complexion, Lima with a natural expression on his face, his mouth turned up, and his sweet smile was very touching.

Andy's mouth is also upturned. She stretches her arms around her waist and carefully supports Lima stepping on the seven points and boots. The stitches really work. The body is more loyal than the brain. The body will not lie.

Seattle, known as the romantic city of the "Emerald City", is uniquely endowed with green mountains, lakes, harbors and rivers, and a warm climate, such as the spring season.

Whether it is in the United States or elsewhere in the world, it is almost impossible to find a second city like Seattle. The mountains and flat land are covered by dense, almost primitive forests. The inner and outer areas of the city are lined with quiet harbors, rivers, and green trees, covering colorful streets.

This time, I have more time to come here, and I feel more comfortable. Andy took Lima and looked at the scenery through the window. At noon, the sun was shining, and the floor-to-ceiling glass on the tall buildings in the distance was refracted. A colorful light spreads to the sky, covering the surrounding buildings with a thin layer of veil.

"Although the temperature is not high, the sunshine here is really brilliant!" Andy likes this sunny weather. Lima leaned lazily in the arms of Andy. What I want is to find a place to rely on fake 寐.

Seeing that Lima ignored himself, Andy also resignedly resigned. The team drove quickly into the bustling city center. At the door of the Four Seasons Hotel, Andy was surrounded by bodyguards and led by the housekeeper in the presidential suite with a smile on his face. Step into the bright and luxurious lobby.

The convoy turned a corner into the underground parking lot, and Lima, wearing sunglasses, was seated on a VIP ladder directly to the floor of the presidential suite under the guard of four bodyguards. She did not feel that she had not traveled with Andy. Negative emotions like aggrieved.

There used to be, but Lima was very clear at this time, persecution of Andy will only make the distance between the two people more and more, the gap between them is more and more, and eventually lose Andy.

She never intended to leave Andy, and she was ready to become pregnant. She became a model from her teens. She can go step by step now, and return to Andy completely. Not to mention being in the world, at least she is not stupid. White sweet.

Andy has feelings for her, and she loves Andy too. After giving birth, the bond of affection will be unbreakable. Even if the hostess has another person, what about it, there will be decades in the future, who can guarantee that she is The last person to laugh!

'Ding! ’

The golden elevator door opened, Lima stepped on the carpet and led the bodyguards, quickly walked into the presidential suite with both doors open, and threw his handbag onto the sofa. Take off the sunglasses and glance at Andy standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window and admiring the scenery.

"I'll lie down for a while, and I'm a little sleepy ..." Lima took off his coat and put it on the back of the sofa. Without waiting for Andy to say anything, he went through the load-bearing compartment wall and into the master bedroom.

Watching the picture of the red flame flashing on the black screen of the electronic fireplace, sitting on the edge of the wound, stripped off his clothes, opened the red silk quilt, lay down and covered, yawned, and closed his eyes. .

Andy shook his head and laughed, watching the whole process. He was very satisfied with his sleeping habits that were not affected by lv. He bent over and picked up Lima's clothes thrown on the carpet at random, and set them aside. On the rest bench, I found a switch on the wall and pressed it. The curtains closed slowly, and the light in the bedroom suddenly dimmed.

"Thank you." Lima closed her eyes, muzzled slightly, and murmured.

After Andy stooped down and kissed Lima on the cheek, he turned around and walked out of the master bedroom, took the door with him, walked to the table in the living room, picked up the phone, and pressed No. 1 to notify The housekeeper prepares lunch for herself. As for Lima, let's eat when you wake up.

Had a good lunch, mainly American cooking, but because Seattle has high quality cold waters, the oysters here are really fresh and delicious. Lemon geoduck with caviar, grilled nai butter and other Seattle specialties are also very good. tasty.

In the afternoon, Andy sat on the boss chair and moved the mouse from time to time in front of the laptop, beside it was a cup of hot fragrant coffee and a plate of coconut nai oil pie.

It was during this time that Andy was looking at this time. The financial staff, legal staff, and observers assigned to Starbucks had submitted reports to him separately.

Forcibly acquiring a company will have a lot of troubles, which is beyond doubt. After all, it is not a company founded by itself. Being a well-known Andy, it is very uncomfortable with the self-contained Starbucks management.

The acquisition of Andy has not changed the reality of Starbucks' financial situation worsening at this time. The stock price has plummeted. The core spirit of the company has undergone major changes from the outside to the inside. Right reality.

Rebirth means profound change. The rebirth of Starbucks is bound to experience pain.

Return your business to its roots, focus on what you do best, provide the best products or services, and do everything possible to improve the customer experience. Around the product, brand and channel, we have created a new model of enterprise development that cannot be copied.

The think tank's reform plan has many similarities with what Starbucks management, now headed by Howard Schultz, is doing, but it is more comprehensive and in-depth.

The current group of management must make changes. I believe he can reach a consensus with Howard Schultz. Howard, who returned to Starbucks, has been replacing the original management through a slow change.

However, Howard, who was unable to achieve a rhetoric, could only slowly eat away without causing major shareholder opposition, which undoubtedly increased the difficulty of Starbucks reform.

Before the board of directors arrives tomorrow, Andy has decided to meet Howard Schultz in private in the evening. Howard ’s feelings about Starbucks, his understanding of the coffee industry, and his operating capabilities are among the best in the industry.

Andy won't break his arm and kick Howard Schultz out in order to fully control the power of Starbucks. This is not the result he wants. To put it bluntly, he bought Starbucks to make money, and Howard can make money for him. .

Of course, the head of the important department must be replaced by himself, and even if Andy is willing to give Howard Schultz power, that is also a prerequisite for putting power in a cage.

Around 2 pm, sleepy-eyed, Lima, wrapped in a thick white robe, walked out of the master bedroom, came to Andy, hugged his neck from behind, kissed him on the cheek.

"Good afternoon, dear."

Andy smiled and turned to look at the lazy beauty of Lima Begonia after she fell asleep, her face became more rosy and bright, and her backhand patted and smiled on her buttocks: "Go and wash, sober and awake, what you want to eat Call to prepare the housekeeper, and in a while I will go to the next room to have a meeting with the men. "

"Well, I'd like to order first, then take a bath, giggles, do you want to come together ..." Lima lay on Andy's back, seduced and laughed against his ear, and finally did not forget Blow two fragrant winds.

"Snapped!"

"Don't make trouble!" Andy struck down, but Foxt's buttocks behind him, "There is still a week left, rest assured, I will fill you up every morning and evening, don't worry, if not satisfied, I You can also eat three meals in two days to keep you full, as long as you are not afraid to reach it. "
