Speaker 3: That's sweet sugary litigation. Baby, Yes, I don't get it yet.

20
00:01:06,680 --> 00:01:08,720
Speaker 1: So if you hand someone a candy heart that says

21
00:01:08,880 --> 00:01:12,920
Speaker 1: marry me on it, you might have to sign a prenup.

22
00:01:13,200 --> 00:01:16,240
Speaker 3: Right there, five year old.

23
00:01:16,040 --> 00:01:19,160

00:01:31,400 --> 00:01:35,320
Speaker 1: So yeah, I mean, do KNDy hearts not know who

31
00:01:35,319 --> 00:01:36,039
Speaker 1: their audience is?

32
00:01:36,920 --> 00:01:39,360
Speaker 3: Do they think that they al.

00:01:48,640 --> 00:01:50,160
Speaker 3: So let's get down that road.

38
00:01:50,200 --> 00:01:50,880
Speaker 1: Here we go.

39
00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:53,840

Speaker 2: Back in nineteen ninety, McDonald's open its very first Russian

41
00:01:57,960 --> 00:02:03,640
Speaker 2: location in Moscow. Thirty thousand people stood in line, waiting

42
00:02:03,720 --> 00:02:06,240
Speaker 2: for hours in the sub freezing.

43
00:02:05,840 --> 00:02:11,160
Speaker 3: Temperatures just to experience the pure joy of saying supersize me.

44
00:02:13,360 --> 00:02:16,720
Speaker 2: That location thrived for thirty years until a certain Russian

00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:19,960
Speaker 2: president I'm not gonna name names, chose to invade Ukraine

46
00:02:20,680 --> 00:02:22,960

47
00:02:22,960 --> 00:02:24,200
Speaker 2: no no, no, not loving it.

48
00:02:24,320 --> 00:02:26,720
Speaker 3: I'm not gonna do it, gonna close all our Russian stories.

49
00:02:27,200 --> 00:02:27,880
Speaker 3: Good good.

50
00:02:27,919 --> 00:02:31,240
Speaker 2: But Mickey Dee's obviously wasn't the first or last American

51
00:02:31,280 --> 00:02:35,000
Speaker 2: business to try and expand internationally. And today you'll be

52
00:02:35,080 --> 00:02:40,240
Speaker 2: quizzed on more during a special Applebees Overseas edition of.

53
00:02:41,880 --> 00:02:43,280

00:02:43,600 --> 00:02:45,840
Speaker 1: Can you imagine any good at the neighborhood in Italy?

55
00:02:47,680 --> 00:02:49,000
Speaker 3: Say a number one through twenty.

00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:51,880
Speaker 2: I'll tell you about a popular American business that actually

57
00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:54,560
Speaker 2: tried opening in a foreign location. You just have to

58
00:02:54,560 --> 00:02:57,440
Speaker 2: tell me is it still there or not there?

59
00:02:58,040 --> 00:03:02,359
Speaker 3: Like fail or fail? That's the same, the same thing.

60
00:03:02,400 --> 00:03:04,920
Speaker 2: Though when you're deciding, you might want to think how

61
00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:08,720
Speaker 2: would this American business mesh with the country's culture. We'll

62
00:03:08,720 --> 00:03:10,560
Speaker 2: start with the woman who is rushing to finish this

63
00:03:10,560 --> 00:03:12,359
Speaker 2: segment so you can get back to her iced coffee.

64
00:03:12,720 --> 00:03:17,400

Speaker 3: like world.

68
00:03:26,760 --> 00:03:29,519
Speaker 2: It's hard for me to see Costco failing anywhere exactly.

69
00:03:30,200 --> 00:03:33,160
Speaker 3: Costco they don't want bulk everything there.

70
00:03:33,440 --> 00:03:35,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a very American idea.

71
00:03:35,600 --> 00:03:38,040
Speaker 2: People in the rest of the world don't live in

72
00:03:38,080 --> 00:03:39,320
Speaker 2: these giant houses.

73
00:03:39,400 --> 00:03:42,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, you do walk to the store and like, can

74
00:03:42,400 --> 00:03:44,600
Speaker 1: you can you imagine being Costco stuff home from you

75
00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:48,320
Speaker 1: on a train, and especially in those little like European islands,

76
00:03:48,360 --> 00:03:49,720
Speaker 1: and it's like stairs everywhere.

77
00:03:49,920 --> 00:03:53,600
Speaker 3: Okay, I'm convinced it's not there anymore. Alexis says Costco

78
00:03:53,760 --> 00:03:58,400
Speaker 3: is not still in South Korea. It is still there.

79
00:03:58,520 --> 00:03:58,720
Speaker 1: Yeah.

80
00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:01,920
Speaker 2: South Koreans love bulk shopping and people even waiting massive

81
00:04:01,960 --> 00:04:05,360
Speaker 2: lines for their famous food court Bulgogi bigs the similar

82
00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:11,800
Speaker 2: to the Chicken Big. It's very powerful, five big dooms.

83
00:04:11,800 --> 00:04:15,880
Speaker 2: For Alexis Brook, it's your turns, let's go, so give

84
00:04:15,920 --> 00:04:20,760
Speaker 2: me twenty twenty Brook. Starbucks came to China in nineteen

85
00:04:20,839 --> 00:04:24,680
Speaker 2: ninety nine. Still there or not there? I just feel

86
00:04:24,720 --> 00:04:26,359
Speaker 2: like I could see one at the end of the

87
00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:28,039
Speaker 2: great wall, you know, like you get done.

88
00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:31,839
Speaker 3: It's like, yeah, you get done, and you're like, oh,

89
00:04:31,920 --> 00:04:34,720
Speaker 3: you can buy the collective of a coffee bugs say, China.

90
00:04:34,680 --> 00:04:36,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, definitely don't want to put it at the front

91
00:04:36,240 --> 00:04:37,880
Speaker 1: of the great wall because then you're walking and you

92
00:04:37,920 --> 00:04:43,120
Speaker 1: have to use the bathroom and that's a long wall.

93
00:04:44,320 --> 00:04:47,800
Speaker 3: I'm going to definitely there. Brook says Starbucks is still

94
00:04:47,839 --> 00:04:49,279
Speaker 3: there in China. It is.

95
00:04:51,040 --> 00:04:54,119
Speaker 2: There despite China's tea drinking culture. Starbucks cracked the market

96
00:04:54,120 --> 00:04:56,840
Speaker 2: by turning coffee shops into trendy social hubs, and now

97
00:04:56,839 --> 00:05:00,559
Speaker 2: it's one of their biggest success A lot too, Jose,

98
00:05:00,640 --> 00:05:01,159
Speaker 2: it's your turn.

99
00:05:01,320 --> 00:05:03,799
Speaker 3: Okay, let's go four Jose.

100
00:05:04,040 --> 00:05:07,799
Speaker 2: Walmart came to Germany in two thousand and six. Still

101
00:05:07,880 --> 00:05:09,200
Speaker 2: there or not there?

102
00:05:12,839 --> 00:05:16,000
Speaker 1: Germany really likes high quality products, and when I think

103
00:05:16,080 --> 00:05:18,760
Speaker 1: high quality products, I only think of one store, and

104
00:05:18,760 --> 00:05:19,400
Speaker 1: that's Walmart.

105
00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:22,080
Speaker 3: That's It's all like BMW's in the parking lot.

106
00:05:22,279 --> 00:05:23,960
Speaker 2: Don't you think Germans are also cheap?

107
00:05:24,480 --> 00:05:29,360
Speaker 3: You know what? I think? What is that basic? Trying

108
00:05:29,360 --> 00:05:35,520
Speaker 3: to start a new stereos like all about like work

109
00:05:35,680 --> 00:05:40,760
Speaker 3: and discipline. I apologize, I know.

110
00:05:41,200 --> 00:05:45,880
Speaker 1: You're thinking of Jewish people work hard, we save our money.

111
00:05:46,560 --> 00:05:49,640
Speaker 3: I think this is false, Jose said. Walmart is not

112
00:05:49,760 --> 00:05:54,039
Speaker 3: there in Germany. That is correct, It's not there.

113
00:05:54,320 --> 00:05:58,040
Speaker 2: The biggest issues Germans weren't into smiling greeters, bagging their groceries,

114
00:05:58,160 --> 00:06:00,840
Speaker 2: being forced to small talk at check out, and Walmart

115
00:06:00,920 --> 00:06:06,320
Speaker 2: lost a billion dollars before Porto. Jeffrey, it's your return two, Jeffrey.

116
00:06:06,520 --> 00:06:09,719
Speaker 2: Nike came to Brazil in nineteen ninety six. Is it's

117
00:06:09,760 --> 00:06:11,280
Speaker 2: still there or not there.

118
00:06:11,640 --> 00:06:14,240
Speaker 1: When I think Brazil, I mean, first thing I think

119
00:06:14,279 --> 00:06:20,159
Speaker 1: of is short, tight men swimwear on the beaches. You know, soccer,

120
00:06:21,400 --> 00:06:24,160
Speaker 1: That's the thing. See down in Brazil on those beaches.

121
00:06:24,200 --> 00:06:26,160
Speaker 1: You want to look good in your swimmer. I could

122
00:06:26,160 --> 00:06:26,920
Speaker 1: see like little.

123
00:06:26,760 --> 00:06:28,080
Speaker 3: Nike, sush give me.

124
00:06:28,200 --> 00:06:31,880
Speaker 1: Nike is, yes, still in Brazil and thriving down below.

125
00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:36,359
Speaker 3: Jeffrey said, Nike is still in Brazil. That is rash.

126
00:06:36,839 --> 00:06:39,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, Nikes became a powerhouse and dominates the athletic wear

127
00:06:39,680 --> 00:06:40,280
Speaker 2: market down there.

128
00:06:40,400 --> 00:06:40,960
Speaker 3: I'm swimming.

Speaker 3: Still there or not there? My husband lived in Jamaica,

136
00:07:00,320 --> 00:07:02,560

138
00:07:07,560 --> 00:07:09,600
Speaker 2: Jamaicans were not thrilled with cold sandwiches when they can

139
00:07:09,640 --> 00:07:13,400
Speaker 2: get hot, flavorful local foods for the same cress. Jose,
