Looking for a win-win opportunity

There is an manufacturer in USA, the CEO is smart and honest, employees are very fond of working in this company, therefore the products of this company is one of the best in those infield. The company not only have double-digit annual performance growth, and no debt.

In 2009, the prospect of the United States was still uncertain, the CEO said to his staff, "check any machine we need, or the machines that will be used in three years, then order it."
His staffs are wondering: "we have less order now, there is no urgent to use of the machine, why spend valuable cash to order it?"

"We may not need these machines now, but our suppliers need this order, and if they do not have any business, they will close soon," the CEO said.

This story made me very impressed, because it is a win-win situation with a timely help to other.
We often only think about how to take profit, would like to use the least money to get the best products, the best service, but not to try to find a win-win opportunities, to use reasonable money and get the service.
