Terry Gou ( Wikipedia)

Terry Guo, (born October 8, 1950 in Banqiao Township, Taipei County) is a Taiwanese tycoon who is the founder and chairman of Foxconn,[2] a company that manufactures electronics on contract for other companies - such as Apple Inc.. It is the largest such electronics manufacturing services company in the world, with factories in several countries, mostly in mainland China, where it employs 1.2 million people and is its largest exporter.[3]

Early life

Gou's parents lived in mainland China's Shanxi Province before they fled to Taiwan in 1949,[4] where Gou was born. His father had worked as a policeman in the past. As the first child of his family, Gou received education from elementary school to post college. After graduation, he continued to work in a rubber factory, working at a grinding wheel, and medicine plant until the age of 24. Gou has two younger brothers, Tai-Chiang Gou and Tai-Cheng Gou, who have both become successful businessmen as well.

Founding of Hon Hai

Gou founded Hon Hai in Taiwan in 1974[5] with $7500 in startup money and ten workers, making plastic parts for television sets in a rented shed in Tucheng, a suburb of Taipei.[6] A turning point came in 1980 when he received an order from Atari to make connectors to the console joystick.[6] He further expanded his business in the 1980s by embarking on a 11 month trip across the US in search of customers. As an aggressive salesman, Gou dropped in unannounced on companies and was able to get additional orders.[6]

Empire building

In 1988 he opened his first factory in mainland China, in Shenzhen, where his largest factory remains today. Operations in China took on a giant dimension when Gou vertically integrated the assembly process and facilities for workers. The manufacturing site became a campus that included housing, dining, and medical care for the workers, and even chicken farming to replenish the cafeteria.[6]

French restaurant group 'seat guests according to how good-looking they are'(By Sara Malm dailymail)

A French restaurant group has been accused of aesthetic snobbery after allegedly seating guests according to attractiveness.

Good-looking diners at two of the most famous Paris establishments run by the well-known Costes group are said to be automatically upgraded to the best tables in the house.

The claims have been made by two former employees who also revealed that the same rules apply for staff with female hostesses needing ‘a model’s physique’ to be considered for the job.

Benefit of beauty: Good-looking guests at famous Paris eatery Les Georges atop Centre Pompidou are said to be automatically upgraded to the best tables in the house

Guests at Le Georges, a restaurant at the top of Paris’ Centre Pompidou with stunning panoramic views of the French capital, and Café Marly, near the Louvre, are given tables following a strict appearance policy – the better looking they are, the better the table.

The good-looking ones are led to the good places, where they can be easily seen,’ they two former staff members told French weekly Le Canard Enchaîné.

As for the non-good-looking ones, it is imperative that they be dispatched to the corners of the room.’

If the staff seats a less aesthetically pleasing guest at a good table, they are told off along the lines of: ‘What are these ugly mugs doing at this table? Everyone can see them when they come in. It’s very bad for our image,’

Questions:

1. What do you think that French restaurants seat guests according to how good-looking? Should beautiful people serve first?

2. Is that a discrimination for non Good-looking Guests?

3. Do you care where the table you seat when you eating at a restaurant?

4. Do you judge a person by appearance?

Do you follow the idea that “doesn’t judge a book by its cover”?

5. Is it wrong to judge people on their physical appearance?

6. In your opinion, what makes a good restaurant?

What Factors Affect Restaurant Customer Satisfaction?

What do you think the restaurants service in Taiwan?

7. Do good-looking people have a better life?

The Advantages and Disadvantages of Being Good Looking?

 名餐廳「以貌帶位」 不美坐角落20131108

【張渝萍╱綜合外電報導】法國著名時尚餐飲集團科斯特遭前員工爆料,餐廳有「以貌帶位」規定,員工會被告知「較醜的人該被帶位到哪」,沒照做還會挨刮。

法國《鴨鳴報》前天報導,兩名離職員工爆料,科斯特(Costes)集團的餐廳以嚴苛審美標準來決定客人座位。「以貌帶位」的餐廳包括在龐畢度中心頂樓擁有超棒視野的喬治餐廳(Le George)及羅浮宮玻璃金字塔旁的馬列咖啡館(Cafe Marly),就連服務生都規定要有模特兒身材及30歲以下。

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

醜人「損形象」

兩名前員工稱,老闆要求他們將較醜的客人安排至餐廳角落,並對這樣的安排感到驕傲。若未遵照指示就會被訓:「為什麼將難看的人放在顯眼位置,有損餐廳形象。」但此規定不適用名人。

由科斯特兄弟創立的科斯特集團是巴黎時尚潮流代表,擁有多間餐廳、旅館及影城。一名喬治餐廳員工不否認有此規定,但集團發言人不回應。
