Ví dụ
"I'm going to market to sell our cow here." "Oh, you look the proper sort of chap to sell cows," said the man; "I wonder if you know how many beans make five." "Two in each hand and one in your mouth," says Jack, as sharp as a needle. "Right you are," said the man, "and here they are the very beans themselves," he went on pulling out of his pocket a number of strange- looking beans. "As you are so sharp," says he, "I don't mind doing a swop (sự trao đổi, đổi chác) with you - your cow for these beans." -Jack and the Beanstalk
No company in the world makes more engines than Honda does. In addition to cars and bikes, Honda makes engines for generators, pumps, outboard-motor boats and a whole host of motorised horticultural tools (công cụ làm vườn). So when it comes to engines, believe me, they know how many beans make five. Moreover, their Formula One power unit is still in the relatively early stages of its gestation (thai kỳ), compared with those of Mercedes and Ferrari especially, and its developmental curve will therefore remain steep for some time yet, which will trigger a series of horsepower increments (sự lớn lên) over the coming weeks and months. And our chassis is already a very good one.
As I say, I’m a racer, a businessman and a marketer. I’ve been around Formula 1 for a long time now, and I know how many beans make five. In my JMI [Just Marketing International] days I did a lot of sponsorship deals for quite a few Formula 1 teams, McLaren included. In fact I was responsible for bringing on board quite a number of McLaren’s current major partners – Johnnie Walker, Hilton, Chandon, NTT – and adding further to that partner roster is one of my first objectives. I’m not going to say who or when or how much, but McLaren has been without a title partner for too long, and I mean to right that wrong if not this year then definitely next year.
