  Albert was an ordinary worker in an oil company in America.His workmates gave a nickname(绰号)“Four dollars a bucket of oil” below his name whenever and wherever he wrote down his name.

  As time went by, people forgot his real name.Later, when Rockefeller, the board chairman(董事长)of the oil company, heard of it, he was very surprised, so he invited Albert to come to his office.

  “Some people give you a nickname for ‘Four dollars a bucket'.Why aren't you angry?” asked Rockefeller with some puzzlement in his eyes.

  “Oh!Mr.Rockefeller! I like this nickname very much, because ‘Four dollars a bucket's is our company's advertisement.As long as someone calls me‘Four dollars a bucket'once, I think it's free advertisement for our company.It's not necessary for me to get angry.Don't you think so, Mr.Rockdfeller?”

  “Oh! What a wonderful man!” ckefeller said excitedly when hearing Albert's words “Young man! Work harder, you must be successful in the future! I believe in you!”

  Five years later, Albert became the second board chairman after Rockefeller.
