"So there's a real chance that Uncle Warren will lose?"

"Does Uncle Warren know about these things?"

"Is there a way to deal with it?"

Linda, who was persuaded by Evan, asked questions one after another, trying to help Evan's father.

Evan asked Linda to go back to work quietly: "What I know, how could my father not know." ”

"As for the solution, it's not something we can mix into. Mr. Dewey was bent on entering the White House, how could he take it lightly. ”

"They're already taking action. ”

As for whether it will work and change the result to drive Truman out of the White House, it is difficult to say.

To be honest, Evan himself doesn't have much confidence.

The data that Evan had collected was handed over to Earl Warren not long ago, and he had a short exchange with him. Earl revealed some information about the campaign to Evan. These things tell Evan that even Earl himself has doubts about the election. And Evan's information made Earl further realize that maybe the Republican Party was really going to "lose Jingzhou".

Of course, Evan couldn't tell the truth at this point.

There is still some time before the November election vote, and perhaps Dewey will defeat Truman.

"Alright, that's all for the chat, you should go to work, or you'll be sorry for my paycheck. ”

As he spoke, Evan got up and instructed Carl, "You go and get busy with yours too, I'll go to the R&D department to have a look." ”

Going to the R&D department was an excuse that Evan thought of temporarily, but he did it and really stayed in the R&D department until almost five o'clock, and then returned to his office.

Touching the fish for a while, Evan plans to leave work on time and pick up Audrey at the Freesman House, where she practices her sartorial skills.

"Bang bang!"

Evan was startled by the knock on the door, "Who?"

"Linda. ”

"Come in!"

Evan made the appearance that he was looking at the papers, and Linda pushed the door open.

Evan put away the document that he hadn't read a word, looked at Linda and asked, "Something?"

Linda, who was dressed in a professional suit, held a file bag in her hand, looked at Evan suspiciously for a moment, and then put the file bag on his desk: "This is what Mr. Carl asked me to send over." ”

"Thank you!" replied calmly.

Instead of leaving immediately, Linda asked, "You're off work?"

"Yes!" Evan nodded generously.

Linda hesitated for a moment and then asked, "Can you give me some time?"

Evan suddenly became nervous, she should confess again.

Evan observed Linda's expression for a moment, didn't notice that feeling, and understood that he was thinking too much, "You want to talk to me?"

"Yes!"

"Let's get started, please be seated. Evan pointed to his chair and said, "Time is yours before you get off work." ”

"Good. Linda was not polite at all, and sat down very ladylikely, "In the past two weeks, I have almost understood your industry, and there are some things I don't understand......"

"I see, just ask. Evan smiled, "You used to lend me homework to copy, and this time it will be my reward." ”

Speaking of when she was a child, Linda showed a nostalgic look, she smiled slightly, stroked the hair around her ears, and said, "With your cleverness, there is no need to copy homework." ”

"Laziness is also a technical job. Evan laughed to himself.

Linda smiled and got down to business.

"From what I've observed, Applied Physical Systems and Applied Healthcare are your main businesses, right?"

"That's right. ”

"Before the electrical industry was very rich, this can be seen from the development of General Electric, and the applied healthcare industry involves everyone, so I can understand why you chose these two industries. It's a pity ......"

"What a pity?"

"Well, I only regret the future of the Demon Seven Corporation. He was, and is, a contributor to your cash flow, but he will inevitably be abandoned by you in the future. ”

"Not necessarily!"

"Hmm, am I thinking wrong? But the main products in the hands of the Magic Seven Company have been going downhill at this time, and the new products have not shown a trend of popularity again......"

What Linda said is the fact that among the major products of the Magic Seven Company, the sales of the Rubik's Cube fell by 30% compared with the same period last year, and even if the Rubik's Cube competition was held again this summer, the sales momentum did not improve, as if the sun was setting. At the same time, among the new products launched by the magic seven company, although the acceptance of plastic building blocks has improved, it is still tepid and cannot be compared with wooden building blocks at all. Card games are well promoted, but the number of players is limited, so although this business remains profitable, the number is not comparable to the size of the Rubik's Cube. As for the new product post-it notes, it is still in the marketing stage, and Linda cannot judge its future prospects for the time being. And these products add up to only one-third of the Rubik's Cube's income. Once the Rubik's Cube market collapses, the Magic Seven Company will inevitably be unable to maintain the valuation it was at when Prince became a shareholder.

"This doesn't mean anything, the Rubik's Cube may not be so hot anymore, but as long as the patent is in hand, it should be able to eat the old book for many years. And there is a lot of potential for other products, well, maybe you are not optimistic, but I have confidence in them. ”

"So, the Demon Seven Company will always stay in the system?"

"At least I won't be abandoned casually. Evan raised his eyebrows and looked at Linda in surprise: "System, do you see it?"

"Of course. Linda said proudly: "Banks, promising industries, and even the entertainment industry, if I can't see that you are building a system that you control, then my two years of college will be in vain." ”

Evan corrected, "You can just call it the Warren Consortium." ”

"The Warren Consortium. After Linda repeated, she exclaimed, "Evan, you're amazing." ”

"Thanks for the compliment. ”

Linda smiled, and finally asked her heart, I have seen your genius, so there are two things I don't understand. ”

"One, why did you insist on continuing your studies? for that Ph.D. title, or for the research you're doing now?"

"Two, I can understand why you invested in Jack Warner and the Dumont network, not for that poor-breasted woman, or to infiltrate the media industry and have a certain right to speak. But what I don't understand is, why would you want to invest in a restaurant?"

Evan estimated that many of the executives in his company wanted to ask these two questions, but what he didn't expect was that the first one to ask was Linda, who had only been in the company for two weeks.

Evan thought for a moment and replied, "These two questions actually have the same internal logic. ”

Linda was curious, "What is it?"

"That is, they all have a good future. ”

"The difference is that the former is highly technical and profitable, while the latter is ...... Absorb a lot of labor. ”8)
