"Okay, Evan...... Ahem......"

Girard cleared his throat, a little uncomfortable in his throat after talking all morning.

"From what I've observed, about half of the dealers have expressed some interest in the 'magic blocks', and about 20 of them have already confirmed that they will place orders. Among the remaining dealers, about 10% of them clearly said that they would not place orders, and the rest are still waiting and seeing. ”

"If I look at the statistics and don't have a big deviation, the number of orders for 'magic blocks' is expected to be between 8 and 12 tons. ”

"This amount is less than the original estimate made by the marketing department, so it is possible that the factory needs to adjust the production capacity accordingly. ”

Evan nodded when he heard this, and said, "This will be decided when the actual order volume comes out." ”

"You go on...... What about the cards?"

Girard laughed, "The cards are in a much better situation. ”

"You probably see this Evan better than I do. ”

"Overall, the order is probably about 20% higher than we estimated. ”

"In addition, there are many people who are interested in our plan to establish a joint venture store. Therefore, I think the investment in the store side can be increased appropriately. ”

"Okay, you can do this!"

Evan has no opinion on this.

After Girard's report, the other employees reported on the reactions of the various media outlets.

After listening to it, Evan made a statistic in his mind that the number of media that might report the game was about 30%.

This data is relative to the benefits given away, and Evan feels that it is a bit of a profit.

Thinking of this, a smile appeared on Evan's face, and then he clapped his palms and said, "Okay, the meeting will be here, everyone hurry up to eat, and don't relax in the afternoon." ”

……

Although there is no competition at noon, there are many people who come to visit the booth area, so the staff in the booth area can only take turns to rest.

After lunch, the Warren family also came to the booth area.

The twins had a lot of fun in the magic block area, because their appearance attracted many onlookers.

At one o'clock in the afternoon, the game resumed.

The afternoon competition is blind screwing, because it is more difficult, and the time required for each group is much more than that of speed screwing.

At 3:40 p.m., the blind twisting competition ended, and the championship belonged to a young man from Georgia.

Chicago's Jerry finished fourth by a second and missed out on the podium.

However, Jerry has no regrets at all, and he is very happy to have this result.

After all the competitions, at four o'clock, the award ceremony began.

The Magic Seven Company invited the congressmen and federal officials who were present in the morning to serve as the guests of honor.

After the award ceremony, the organizers did not announce the end of the event, but organized a group of people to hold a small card competition.

These are all newbies who have only learned the rules of the cards today. Therefore, the situation of the game is frequent, and the jokes are constant.

At half past six in the evening, when the sky began to darken, the organizers finally announced the end of the event, and the venue began to clear people.

Of course, at this point in time, Evan and the others had already left.

Seven p.m., the restaurant of the Albert Hotel.

The Evan family has dinner with Orville and Rick.

Nina is happy that Evan has made new friends at school. However, when Nina learns that they have started a strange club together at school, she almost laughs out loud.

The next day, Rick and Orville go out together. Where he went, Evan didn't know.

In the morning, Evan went to the office. Starting today, the Magic Seven Company began to accept orders for the two new products, building blocks and cards, and at the office, Evan can be the first to know how the orders are performing.

Evan was only in the office for half a day before leaving.

Leaving with a relaxed face, it can be seen that the performance of these two products has satisfied Evan.

Unable to stop the twins (mainly Dora) from making a fuss, the Warren family embarks on a journey to visit Manhattan's skyscrapers.

The first stop is the Empire State Building.

The "Empire State" in the name of the Empire State Building actually refers to New York, which is the nickname of New York.

Incidentally, there is another tall building in Manhattan called the Empire Building, and the difference between the two is whether there is a "state" or not.

The former was the tallest building in the world at this time, located in Midtown Manhattan, on the west side of Fifth Avenue, between 33rd and 34th Streets. The building is 381 meters high and was built in 1931. Its owner, EmpireState, Inc., is owned by a group of wealthy investors, including Louis Kaufman. Kaufman), John Rascob, John Raskob), Pierre duPont. One thing these people have in common is that they all worked at General Motors.

Located at 71 Broadway in Manhattan's financial district, the latter is a 21-story (69-meter-high) steel-framed curtain wall building built in 1898 and has been the headquarters of U.S. Steel since 1901.

The two are far from each other in terms of volume and height.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, the Warren family of five, followed by Bob and several other bodyguards, went down to the open-air observation deck on the 86th floor of the Empire State Building.

Admission fees are one dollar per person.

Since its inauguration, it has become a popular attraction in New York, earning more than $1 million in its first year (1931) and increasing every year since. These revenues greatly alleviated the scale of the building's loss.

Standing on the observation deck, visitors can look at the whole of Manhattan as if they were in the air.

With the help of telescopes, Central Park can be clearly seen from the north side of the observation deck, and the nearby Rockefeller Building is very conspicuous; to the west of the observation deck, you can see the Hudson River and Jersey City on the opposite side; there is no shortage of skyscrapers in the south, such as the Metropolitan Life Insurance Building in New York, which was once the tallest building, and of course, the future World Trade Center is still flat at this time; and the most conspicuous to the east is the Chrysler Building, the tallest building before the Empire State Building, which is 318.9 meters tall and has only been the world's first building for 11 months.

At the top of the tall building, Robert and his two younger sisters were excited, and if it weren't for the rudeness to keep occupying the telescope, it was estimated that they would have been able to keep watching.

Nina only glanced at it and didn't get any closer to the edge of the observation deck.

The same goes for Evan.

I don't know if it's a psychological factor, but when Evan didn't glance at the ground with a telescope, he instantly felt cold in his hands and feet, his heart beat faster, and he panicked.

After subconsciously taking a step back, this feeling disappeared.

Evan thinks it might be a fear of heights.

Looking at the three Robert brothers, who were not abnormal at all, Evan and Nina glanced at each other, and laughed bitterly at the same time.

There are many more buildings to be found.
