On January 7th, Magic7 was officially established.

On the same day, Sacramento High School opened.

Therefore, on the first day of school, Evan was absent for half a day.

Magic7's office address is in the same place as Alphabet, but this is only temporary. After the factory is built, it is estimated that it will have to be moved, and at most the sales department will be left behind.

In addition to Evan, Carl, and Girard, there is one more important member of the start-up of Magic7. His name was Jason Davidson, and he was a bankrupt factory owner.

He was introduced by Michael Greenwood of the Manufacturers' Association, who had worked for large companies such as Boeing and Westinghouse Electric before setting up his own bankrupt factory, so he knew a lot about the operation and management of the factory.

After some investigation, Evan felt that Jason was a suitable candidate for the plant. So, even though Jason asked for a lot of money, he invited him to join the company.

Jason is saddled with a huge debt and is in dire need of a job that pays well. If it weren't for Michael's introduction, he wouldn't have come back to Magic7 for an interview. Seeing that Evan was so generous, he also made a promise that he would not abandon the company until the last minute.

Evan just smiled slightly when he heard this, and didn't say anything.

In the afternoon of the same day, Evan convened the first meeting of Magic7. In addition to the "Big Four" of Magic7, there was also a plastics engineer sent by United Carbon.

The venue is in the conference room of Alphabet. Magic7's own conference room had not yet been set up, and it was now empty.

The whole meeting was just one thing, and that was that Evan assigned tasks to everyone.

Next, the main task of Magic7 is to build a factory. ”

"Jason, this job is entrusted to you to be in charge, you have experience in building a factory, whether it is built in Sacramento or North Sacramento, it is up to you to decide. Carl, Girard, both of you are there to help, especially Carl, you are in charge of the official affairs. ”

"I have only one request, I want to see a fully functional factory by June. ”

"Carl, you also have a task to improve the remaining departments of the company as soon as possible, such as finance, personnel, and so on. ”

"Girard, your sales department is waiting, but you can look at future sales strategies now. ”

With that, Evan immediately chatted with Rona Anderson from United Carbon about his work schedule.

However, his first words stunned Ronna, a young man of thirty.

"Ronna, if you are interested in changing jobs, come to our company, and promise to let you show your strengths. ”

Evan said this with a look of anticipation and longing in his eyes.

As Uncle Ge said as the old saying goes, what is the most precious thing in the 21st century is talent.

The same was true in the twentieth century.

Evan understands solid state physics, engineering drawing, and computer theory, but he doesn't know chemical engineering!

Even if he understood, he couldn't go into battle in person.

It's a pity that Evan doesn't seem to have the aura of a king to be worshipped.

Rona said embarrassedly and crampedly, "Well, Mr. Evan, let's get down to business." ”

Looking at the young unspeakable company boss in front of him, Rona had no idea of changing jobs.

Who knows how long such a ticket-playing company can live, and then you will be happy, what can we do as part-time workers, or do we have to work hard to find a home.

Seeing that Rona really had no intention, Evan had to give up.

"Alright then, about your arrangement...... Carl, come on. ”

"Okay. Carl naturally took over the task and explained to Ronna: "Ronna, it's like this. Since the plant has not yet been decided, we have rented you a warehouse for commissioning the machines and processes. ”

"All you have to do is tune out the colors we need and train the qualified operators for us. ”

"Understood!"

Rhona nodded in understanding.

It's not very difficult, and if you earn it, you should take a vacation.

Rona was secretly happy.

After the work was arranged, that night, the whole company went to the hotel for a meal.

The next day, Evan went to school as usual.

Before class, Audrey asked him why he wasn't there yesterday afternoon.

Evan was absent-minded and only replied that something was wrong.

Audrey saw that he had something to hide from her, and was a little unhappy, and she didn't even say anything about what she wanted to discuss with Evan, and she was sullen all day.

Careless Evan failed to find out.

After school, Audrey returned home on time.

As she lowered her head and thought about what she should do for dinner, she opened the door, only to find that it was unlocked.

Today his father returned earlier than her.

And there are guests in the house.

Audrey walked into the living room, and Joseph, who was sitting and talking to someone, had a happy face, stood up and said, "Audrey, you're back." ”

"Look, Mr. Abbott is here again. ”

This Mr. Abbott is the bald old man who chatted with Audrey backstage for a long time on Christmas Day. He was a theater producer and playwright who came to Sacramento for a break. After watching Audrey's performance by chance, I felt that she was quite good in terms of appearance and voice, and she was a good seedling. After chatting with Audrey backstage, Abbott cherished her talent and persuaded Joseph to send her to a specialized art school on a whim, where he could help write a letter of recommendation.

Audrey didn't reply at the time.

Audrey put down her schoolbag, hugged Mr. Abbott, and said, "Mr. Abbott, it's a pleasure to see you again." ”

Abbott looked at Audrey kindly and said, "Audrey, I'll go back to Los Angeles tomorrow, before leaving, I want to come and see you and ask you how you considered my proposal that day." ”

Audrey smiled apologetically at Abbott and said, "Mr. Abbott, I know you mean well, but I'm sorry, I haven't thought about it yet. ”

Abbott looked at Audrey, waved her hand, and said with a smile: "It's okay, Audrey, alas, when you're old, you like to meddle in things." "Since you haven't thought about it, let's think again. ”

As he spoke, he took out an envelope from the inner pocket of his coat and handed it to Audrey: "I have a letter of recommendation ready, Los Angeles High School of the Arts is a good school, if you change your mind, it can help a little." ”

After saying this, Abbott offered to take his leave.

After sending the old man away, Audrey took the envelope and was silent for a long time.

Joseph asked, "Audrey, what are you hesitating about?"

"You don't have to worry about ...... money"

For this daughter, after his wife and other children left one after another, Joseph was both loving and guilty, thinking that he could make up for it as much as he could.

He knew that Audrey loved ballet, and it was a good thing to have the opportunity to go to a specialized school.

Can...... How can this kid ......

Alas......
