The reason why Evan did not go to the company, but met with the management led by Davidson in the café was to recognize their achievements this year in a relaxed atmosphere.

This year, Evan rarely interfered in the various businesses of the Magic Seven Company, from product development to sales strategy, so the decisions came from Davidson and others. The only exception to this is the design of the "Plane Walker's House" card, which was created by Evan after all, and he can't be without him for a short time. Girard and Davidson's new art directors and designers needed time to find their original style.

But other than that, there is no Evan in the entire Demon Seven Company.

In this case, the Magic Seven Company still continued the initial development momentum, and Evan was very happy about it. This shows that the option incentive plan he implemented has been a predictable success.

The magic seven company can not have the present is inseparable from the hard work of the management. As the general manager, Davidson, after Girard went to Los Angeles, took on the production and sales shoulders, and only took less than ten days off in total this year. R&D Director Rona almost lives in the laboratory in order to reduce costs without compromising the quality of the product. Others, though not as crazy as the other two, can be regarded as desperate for their work.

Why have they been able to get to this point? Evan thinks that option incentive plans are the main motivation.

This is the stock of a company with $100 million in annual sales, and who wouldn't want it?

Those who don't want to be stupid.

"Davidson, it's just been a few months, how do you feel like you have more gray hair. ”

"I'm happy to work hard, but I have to pay attention to my body. ”

"Ronna, you too, your face was white enough, and now it looks like you can play a vampire without makeup. Take advantage of Christmas and have a good rest for a few days. New product development is not a matter of one or two days, it requires perseverance, so there is no need to live in the laboratory every day. ”

"Listen, that's what I said, Davidson, if he ever makes the lab his home again, you're going to deduct his salary and make him pay his rent. ”

"Haha......"

Evan's words caused everyone to chuckle, and he turned his face blank: "Don't laugh, I'm serious." ”

"I'm the big boss of the company, you work so hard, I'm the one who benefits the most, I just kept quiet. But I still have to say that money is important, but so is your body, and I don't want any of you to break your body because of your work. ”

"You know, sweatshops don't have a good reputation, and you don't want me to carry this kind of black cauldron, right?"

After Evan's warm words were finished, Ronna, who had just been criticized by him, said: "Yes, yes, boss, you are right." ”

"But...... If I had known that your sweatshop was like this, I would have jumped ship from Union Carbon. ”

Ronna's words drew laughter from everyone.

Evan raised his forehead, looked at Rona and said with a smile: "Anderson, don't blame me, I tried my best to invite you at the beginning." ”

Rona shrugged and said, "So I regret it, I wasted more than a year." ”

After the fun, Evan talked about his clear expectations for the Magic Seven: "Everyone has done a great job this year, and I'm very satisfied. ”

"Next year, I don't have any special requirements here, and I'm sure you can do your best. ”

"Well, Davidson, you seem to have something to say?"

Noticing Davidson's expression, Evan simply threw the initiative of the topic to him.

Davidson nodded and said, "BOSS, I know you have the intention of taking a break from the Magic Seven Company so that you can focus on Los Angeles. However, for the sake of the Magic Seven Company as the starting point of your business, you can't just ignore it. ”

Evan shook his head: "Of course I won't. ”

He joked, "At least I'll keep an eye on entertainment projects from time to time, and I'm a big fan of cards." ”

"That's good...... Davidson smiled and said, "Regarding the company's development next year, BOSS, I just have a few questions that I need you to give a tone." ”

Evan motioned for him to say yes.

"First of all, the Rubik's Cube is a product, and I wanted to make adjustments, mainly to lower its priority among the many product lines," Davidson said. ”

Evan said: "I have no problem with this, but what are you going to do with the competition?"

"The competition still has to be held, but I want to downsize it and only hold the preliminary round at the House of Magic, and as for the final, I want to develop it into a big toy and entertainment show, well, that's what Girard wants to do......," Davidson said.

Evan said, "Okay, that's it." ”

"I think Girard will be very happy when he finds out, maybe he will go to the race when he arrives. ”

"Haha, then I wish him the time to qualify......" Davidson also joked, "the second thing is about the ...... of the House of Magic"

Evan asked, "Do you want to continue to scale?"

Davidson nodded: "That's right, the House of Magic has a great effect on cultivating players, and it is also a good sales channel. ”

Evan: "The problem is that its shortcomings are also obvious, and if there are many people, there will be a lot of trouble in personnel, funds, and management. ”

"yes, so we're not going to open too many either, and we currently have 78 directly-operated stores, and I plan to increase that to 100 to 120," Davidson said. How much depends on how fast the active players are growing. ”

Evan thought for a moment and replied, "I don't have any opinions for the time being, you can do it yourself." ”

"Okay! I'll be cautious. Davidson said, "Finally, it's about Post-it......"

"What's wrong with the post-it notes?" Evan wondered, "Isn't it selling well?"

"Well, it's because it's selling so well that somebody wants to buy it," Davidson said. ”

"Oh, the acquisition!" Evan bowed slightly, and asked, "How do I not know?"

Davidson explained: "They communicated to me privately the other day to see if there was a successful feature from me, and they haven't made a formal acquisition yet, so you don't know." ”

"There are two companies that have made this interest, one is Clark Paper and the other is 3M. ”

"Huh?" Evan looked at Davidson with a strange expression, "I remember them......"

"You remember correctly," Davidson said, "one of them supplies us with paper and one supplies us with glue. ”

Evan frowned, "What do they mean? It's agreed, and if we refuse, we'll cut off the supply of raw materials?"

"It's very unlikely, but it can't be ruled out, so it's hard for me to make a decision......," Davidson said.

Evan knew what he meant, whether to sell or not, he had to listen to him.

He thought for a moment and asked, "Davidson, our suppliers have backups, right?" ”

"Of course, in order to spread the risk, there are at least two suppliers of each ingredient......

Evan asked, "What about their supply capacity?"

"It's not much worse than the main supplier," Davidson said. ”

Evan said: "Then don't sell it." ”
