Chapter 34: Change
Breakfast was a great pleasure.
Even during the holidays, Mr. Governor still couldn't rest and went out after eating. Last night's meeting was a success, but it was not satisfactory, and he was going to San Francisco, which was estimated to be away from home for a few days.
Last night's snow wasn't heavy or long, and there was only a thin layer of snow on the ground, so you couldn't build a snowman.
After playing in the snow in the yard for a while, because he didn't think it was fun, plus the snow melted, it was very cold, and Evan went back to the house first. Dora and Dorothy were left to have a good time, bullying Robert all over the yard.
After a while, Dora ran into the house, shouting as she ran, "Evan Linda is here, where are you?"
Evan poked his head out of the piano room and said, "Here, stop screaming!"
Linda is here to say goodbye.
President Gordon has finished his business, and the restructuring of the University of California has been endorsed by many figures, including Earle, and he can return to Berkeley with confidence.
What's more, preparations for school will start after Christmas, so he plans to leave today with his wife and daughter.
Before leaving, Linda suddenly said that she had something to see Evan, but Gordon couldn't twist it, so she could only follow her wishes.
Confused, Evan meets Linda at the door of the mansion.
Evan invites Linda in, and Linda shakes her head and says no.
"Evan, I'll say a few words and leave. Linda looked at Evan expressionlessly, looked at him from top to bottom, and said, "Evan, it's okay, my mouth is getting sharper and sharper, and I was almost confused by you." ”
"What strong and independent, what thorny rose, praise me like this...... Trying so hard just to make me die?" Linda snorted proudly, and then said, "Evan, I'm telling you, I'm ...... Forget it......"
"However, what you said is not wrong, in a sense, I do think of you as a 'lifebuoy', and I should indeed take it off. ”
"But who's to say it's not really liked?"
"That...... Linda!" Evan looked embarrassed: "What are you talking about?"
"You just keep pretending you don't understand!" Linda glanced at Evan with disdain, "Okay, no more ado, I'm going back to Berkeley!"
"I'm here to tell you something. ”
"What...... Things?"
Evan whispered.
Linda looked straight at Evan and suddenly leaned forward, Evan wanted to retreat, but he couldn't get faster than Linda.
Kiss!
As soon as the red lips touched, Linda ran out of the mansion.
Evan froze in place, his right hand touching his cheek.
If he doesn't back away, maybe it's his mouth that he touches.
Gotcha, the woman took the initiative again!
Oops!
Don't let Audrey know about this!
Thinking so, Evan turned back to the house, startled by Virginia, who was standing behind him at some point.
"Virginia, did you hear it all?"
Virginia said, "I not only heard, I saw it!"
"This ...... I can explain ......"
"Humph!"
Virginia ignored him, turned and left.
……
In the afternoon, Evan sneaks out of the house for a date.
Linda's surprise attack before leaving caused Evan some trouble, but it didn't affect him and Audrey's Christmas celebration.
After Christmas, history continues as usual.
On December 27, two international organizations outside the United Nations, the International Monetary Fund and the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development (the World Bank), were officially established.
On the first day of the new year, the defeated Emperor Komoto issued the "Human Declaration" drafted by the Allied General Headquarters, and since then he has reduced himself from a "living god" to a "national symbol".
Although this is basically no change for the people.
After a short break, before school started, Evan and Carl threw themselves into the preparation of Magic7.
Among the key positions, the first to bear fruit was the salesperson. After interviewing a dozen people, Evan took a fancy to a guy who had worked in sales at General Motors.
His name is George Girard, and at the age of thirty-one, he is already the head of sales for General Motors in California. This is a man who is both capable and driven. Recently, General Motors suffered huge losses due to a strike by workers, and Girard resigned because he was dissatisfied with the attitude of the company's upper echelons towards the strike.
After talking to Girard, Evan learns that he has some sympathy for the workers and the color red. This made Evan nostalgic. Finally, after a certain period of hesitation, although he was a little worried about the risk of red on Girard's body, Evan decided to make him another big general after Carl.
Of course, Girard's addition disrupted Evan's original plan to some extent, because the priority of building a sales team should have been second only to plastics industry practitioners and automated production experts.
As a last resort, Evan decided to let Girard, a sales expert, join the personnel team for the time being (in fact, it was just Carl and Evan).
You have to recruit all the basic personnel before the start of school.
At first, when Girard heard that the company had not even been registered and was still in the initial preparation stage, his first thought was to push the offer. However, when Evan showed him the company's product, the Dora Rubik's Cube that Robert didn't want, Girard immediately changed his mind.
This thing...... It's fun!
Fun is fun, but Girard can't take it away, he can only play in the company.
Therefore, Girard can be said to be more aggressive than anyone else, and the sooner the company is established, the sooner he can get the official product.
Girard's addition brought a wave of good luck to Magic7. Within a few days, United Carbon and DuPont came to the door and said that they could have a certain degree of consultation on what Carl had consulted.
What was Carl's consultancy, of course, he asked them if they wanted to invest in Magic7, a company that is still just a name.
This happened last year, when both companies rejected Carl's offer.
So Carl wondered why they would change their minds.
However, strange as strange, Carl still said, this is a good thing, let's talk, how much money you want to come up with, how many shares.
Although the answers of the two companies are different, they mean the same thing: the price and shares are up to you, and I have only one condition, sell me the patent for the polystyrene foam.
At this point, it dawned on Carl.
It seems that Ando Kazukiyo is making rapid progress over there.
It is estimated that it will not be long before a new food product will appear on the market.
Recently, because of the lack of food, he is about to lie down in front of the Americans, and I don't know if Ichikiyo Ando can enter the market and make a contribution to alleviating the food shortage.
However, will the patent of this Styrofoam be sold? If so, which one will it be sold to?
Carl couldn't make up his mind for a moment, so he asked Evan for advice.
Evan said: "You don't have a chemical plant, what's the use of taking patents." You think too much, believe it or not, they'd rather spend money to bypass patents than pay us a penny. ”
As a result, it became clear that Carl had no choice but to sell the patent to two companies at the same time. However, Carl made an additional request on the basis of the original: to send plastic experts to work for Magic7, and to ensure that no obstacles would be erected for Magic to poach.
The two companies happily agreed.
As a result, on January 7, Magic7 was officially established with a registered capital of 100,000 US dollars, and United Carbon and DuPont each own 5% of the shares.
