Starbucks, Howard Schultz... Zhang Hao only remembered the surname Schultz.

Howard Schultz, the big boss of Starbucks, a group with a market value of 100 billion US dollars!

Zhang Hao recalled carefully. If he remembered correctly, at the beginning of the new century, this big boss would buy the Supersonics, the NBA team in Seattle where Starbucks is headquartered...

He still remembers a report that O'Neal regretted his first entry into the NBA. Because of his high popularity in college, Starbucks wanted to cooperate with him to open a chain of coffee shops into a black community. O'Neal didn't think black people would be willing to buy coffee, so he refused, because in the 1980s, a large number of black people were asking, "Why is coffee black? Is it discrimination or means white people drinking black blood?" Then, in just two or three years, the black community in the United States was everywhere, because the price was cheap and sold better than the white community.

Looking at the Jew in front of him, Zhang Hao knew that the Jews would not get up early without profit. After a moment of silence, Zhang Hao asked, "Why are you looking for me? I am just a poor student who just graduated from high school."

Starbucks was just listed three years ago and has been a bull stock with soaring market value. Now, ordinary people should be ecstatic when they hear Starbucks find its cooperation, even NBA players. Howard Schultz knew that O'Neal had regretted seeing a group of black people buying coffee in the past two years. It was no longer the time when it was not listed three years ago. He did not expect that Zhang Hao was so calm.

For Zhang Hao, being able to make money is of course very important, but it is not the most important thing he thinks in his heart. The most important thing is to survive, so you can calm down when encountering such a thing.

After a smile, Howard Schultz thought quickly and said, "I just told you that we need a representative with a reputation and topic in China to cooperate with us. Of course, we have many choices, Chinese entrepreneurs and Chinese celebrities, all of which are fine.

However, in addition to fame, we value character more. To be honest, Aix, if you agree at once, I will hesitate, but you are very calm. I think you are a good partner.

Also, the most important thing is that you are kind-hearted and don’t feel it’s troublesome when you meet a lost little girl, but insist on helping Lelin find her parents before she dares to leave with confidence…”

Do you value character more? Zhang Hao believes that the first two sentences are the key point, because he is famous and treats this matter calmly, so the character mentioned later is so important.

Zhang Hao is weighing the pros and cons, thinking about what kind of risks he needs to bear... With his future memory, Starbucks will one day become the most famous chain coffee brand in China, and even become Starbucks' largest market outside the United States, but there will definitely be risks, and he doesn't know if there will be any trouble.

Seeing Zhang Hao silent, Howard Schultz definitely didn't know what Zhang Hao was thinking. He thought he was the same as O'Neal's thoughts three years ago, and believed that most Chinese people would not buy coffee. Howard Schultz went to know China and knew that Chinese people were more popular to drink tea.

"Aix, don't rush to answer me. You can think about it first. This is my business card, Tony..." Howard Schultz handed over a business card and pushed it in front of Zhang Hao, then shouted the secretary's name.

The secretary took out two gift boxes, which he bought when he just went out to get the coffee.

"You must accept the gift. It is two mobile phones. It will be more convenient when you want to contact me. This is a thank you for taking care of Lelin." Howard Schultz's tone of speaking this time was that he could not refuse.

The boss of the listed company gave some small gifts to thank him for helping take care of his daughter. It was very reasonable. Zhang Hao and April Clark looked at each other, nodded, and accepted the gift. If you don’t call NCAA, you can accept the gift.

...

After that, I didn't talk about the company anymore, and I returned to the topic of basketball, such as predicting when the suspension would end, talking about Zhang Hao's playing style in the new season, etc. After that, the lunch ended.

Howard Schultz sent a car to take Zhang Hao and April Clark back to the apartment.

After waiting for the car to drive away, April Clark finally couldn't help it: "Aix, why don't you agree to him! Work with Starbucks!"

When we talked at the dinner table before, April Clark didn't dare to say or ask. Now there are no outsiders, and finally said this sentence.

"I didn't refuse him either." Zhang Hao responded, organized the language and said, "I also want to make more money, but I have to consider a lot of things.

I know our country better. Don’t look at your news about how fast our country’s economic growth is, but I know that our country is just growing at a fast rate, with 100 yuan growing by 10%, far less than 10,000 yuan growing by 10,000 yuan growing by 10,000 yuan, right?

So there is no need to worry about this matter. Schultz probably is not in a hurry, but it is still in the preparation stage.

Also, to formally talk about this, I have to prepare, ask someone to conduct market research, find a suitable agent, and a lawyer. Schultz definitely doesn't take the little money I earn seriously. What he wants is not my investment, but my identity as a Chinese and my identity as the first NBA rookie in China.

If he wants to open a company in China, he must cooperate with the Chinese. Maybe he will find someone to take responsibility and potential risks... Even if these are all fine, we will not get any benefits in such a short period of time, so there is no need to hurry..."

Listening to Zhang Hao's words, he had just graduated from high school, and April Clark didn't expect that Zhang Hao would have thought so far away.

However, April Clark never thought Zhang Hao was stupid... Because Zhang Hao had good exam results, although Zhang Hao was depressed before, they could still play together. Although April Clark, who is generally more mature, takes care of Zhang Hao, Pierce talkatively, Zhang Hao is taciturn and loves to get into the knife.

Hearing Zhang Hao's analysis, April Clark's thoughts were gradually fading away for Zhang Hao. Obviously, Zhang Hao thought much farther than her and had his own preparations.

There is no need to worry about this.

On the other hand, in a villa in Beverly Hills, Los Angeles, Howard Schultz found his closest partner to discuss the development of the Greater China market.

It mentioned the cooperation with Zhang Hao.
