McDonald’s Movie - The INSANE Story of McDonald’s by MagnatesMedia… McDonald’s is the largest restaurant chain in the world, with over 40,000 restaurants spread over 120 countries. By this point, the golden arches are an inescapable sight everywhere you go, and McDonald’s has sold well over 300 billion hamburgers. But the original McDonald brothers who started the business, had their company all but stolen from them. Because what began as a single drive-in restaurant was soon transformed into a global fast food empire because of an unrelenting milkshake machine salesman (Ray Kroc). And even though it may appear to be a simple burger business from the outside, McDonald’s secretly dominates an entirely different industry completely unrelated to selling fast food. At times, McDonald’s is an inspiring story of an entrepreneur defying all the odds and building an empire. But at the same time, it's a story of betrayal, fraud, and countless scandals. At one point, McDonald’s even came face to face with the Italian mafia. If you’ve ever wondered how McDonald’s started, how McDonald’s got so big, or the truth about McDonald’s history & Ray Kroc / The McDonald Brothers, this McDonald’s documentary is for you. Let’s journey through the insane history of McDonald’s.

It's because of a deal corporate has with Taylor (the ice cream machine company). Basically they build the machines to break and it's in the franchise contract that only trained Taylor tech are allowed to do repairs, and the repairs are not cheap. So yeah, basically corporate McDonald's and Taylor have a lucrative deal to rip off restaurant operators. You need special codes to do anything and people were getting them online so they could do it faster and cheaper, only for the restaurant operators to be sued by Taylor.

Ray Krok did not "steal" McDonalds from the brothers, if not for Ray, McDonalds would have remained a single restaurant in California, and the brothers would have ended up with a fraction of what they got. Ray grew McDonalds to the worldwide phenomenon it is today, the brothers fought/hindered him every step of the way, they ended up millionaires thanks to Ray Krok.

Rays biggest mistake was entering into the franchise contract. He should have just done what the other chains did and copy their system into his own fast food joint. But the real estate idea was absolutely genius. I think the best part about Ray is the fact that all of his ideas pretty much benefitted everyone in the system, not just him. Also, the fact that he took a kid from a fry boy into the board room that eventually helped the company succeed even more than it already was is evidence of how great Ray was at judging someone’s character. He probably saw potential in a lot of people that most could not.

Ray probably was too decent (relatively!) to just steal someone's idea. It shows - compared to other businesses McDonald's very much played it fair towards the competition and what not. So he entered the unfair contract and had to deal with it for years, probably hoping McDonald brothers will be on board with him in his decisions.

To this day this is one of the most successful McDonalds.

McDonald’s brothers sold their company. Nothing scandalous about that. You can tell from their history they wanted to be moderately wealthy and not work too much.

That's a scam against the franchise owners. They have to get specific, unreliable machines that display what might as well be gibberish that employees don't have a handbook to decipher. So, even if the problem is simple and easy to fix, such as the cleaning cycle couldn't be completed or the hopper is overfull, the code displayed can not be understood by the employees and they have to call in the repair company to fix it. I can't remember how this was resolved, but i think it started to be once the tracking apps that tracked which stores had their machines down started popping up. Which only happened because they always had so many machines down all the time. So, it became a noticeable problem that made McDonald's itself look bad.

@SirDistic 6 месяцев назад

@@amandap9332The machines are programmed to go down. It's so that Taylor can fix it. Taylor is the only company allowed to work on them. The machines intentionally "break" every so often so that Taylor can get called in to fix them. Or that was the case until someone created a device to catch them and put it in several machines.

You have really filled in the gaps and have given the story context. Thank you for explaining the Monopoly scam, and the Morgan Spurlock 'Super Size Me' angle. At present McDonald's in the UK are in a a lot of trouble. McDonald's has just about the youngest workforce in the UK, as well as being one of the largest employers. MPs have received some 400 complaints about sexual harrassment, and such complaints are running at the rate of one or two a week. 18 people have been sacked. McDonald's say - as of course they would - that they take this extremely serious etc etc, but the truth is that when these young employees complained they were ignored.

Sixty years ago (an eon, I know) my father and I used to walk around downtown a lot. He would point out certain buildings and say "That building won't be here in ten years". He pointed to a walk-up McDonalds, (yep that's how long ago it was) the sign even said "Thousands served" LOLOL. He pointed to it and said "That won't be here in ten years, either". I'll be damned but he was right about every single building he pointed to *except* the McDonalds, which now occupies the entire block.

@kobiecamp1134 4 месяца назад

Well, your father wasn't so smart after all if he couldn't see the genius in McDonald's. Matter of fact he probably just figured almost nothing would last the next 10 years. So it wasn't like he was really analyzing these businesses. He was just doing a whole lot of assuming.

They WILL.. Ive found SO many great pieces by journalists who shortly after there release, a streaming company or MSM will then cover it. Usually not as good as the original work. But ine of the only good things to come from social media are the common man journalists work. Well.. as much as until it gets censored. Especially this platform. Ir was AMAZING in its infancy.. during the wild wild west days, well over a decade now. Before all the censoring and control of the algorithms. Before, you could search, and find, information on ANY and EVERYthing. Especially all of the "controversial" or "taboo" topics we are not allowed to talk about. Now, when you search for importsnt events, there will be pages and pages of the MSM videos at the top and anything not approved just gone. So its no longer an accurate or free media source, but so long as you are just looking for common topics, or material that is allowed, its still a little better than MSM sources. Im sure I'm preaching to the choir..

So starting 200 new stores in a 6 year period of time was not hard work? Ray Kroc was hired by the McDonald's to be a franchise agent in 1955. By 1961 he had added almost 200 new stores. The brothers did not do that. They did not have to leave their one store in San Bernadino. Ray Kroc made them rich. If starting hundreds of profitable restaurants is that easy you do it.

I remember when McDonald's used to keep track of how many "millions" of their hamburgers they'd sold because they'd post the rough number on their "Golden Arches" signs. I even remember when the "quarter-pounder w/cheese" was a new thing. That was a LONG time ago. Now, you can't pay me to eat their "food". It's been at least ten years since I've eaten anything from a McDonald's.

@DosBear 4 месяца назад

I miss the days of the 10 Cent burgers we used to get at McDonald's. I haven't eaten there in many years due to them giving me a hard time about putting lettuce on my quarter pounder. They outright refused to do it even when I agreed to pay extra for them to do so. I thought maybe I'd try again through the kiosk about a week ago and low and beyold you can't adjust your order there either. Officially boycotted. That's okay, I prefer real meat anyway. As a matter of fact, I haven't eaten in any restaurant in about 3 years. Not even to get a cup of coffee or a donut.
