learning abt business 🙏
For example, during the discussions between GE and Martin Marietta, officials met mostly in a special work area on the fifty- third floor of an office building in Rockefeller Center. Nearly 100 people who came to be known as the “hole in the wall gang” were hidden away there, pursuing the legal, financial, operational, and personnel aspects of the deal—hoping they would not be noticed in the everyday activity of Manhattan. Work continued virtually around the clock, with meals served at all hours right in the work area. You can perhaps imagine the collective chagrin when the chief financial officer of GE walked out of the building into the virtually empty streets of New York at about 3 a.m. to be greeted by a man who suddenly erupted from a manhole and remarked, “Oh, the meeting up on 53 must be over,” and then disappeared into the manhole just as quickly as he had appeared. To this day, his identity is not known.
