That night, Li Lin received a call from Principal Tong, who said that he had been busy lately and would invite him to dinner in two days.

He reassured Li Lin on the phone that he would definitely lend the conference room on the second floor of the library to Li Lin on the day of the bidding.

With this guarantee, Li Lin was relieved, and as soon as he went to work the next day, he asked the guys to issue a bidding notice.

Soon the company was busy, and the members of the bidding team kept answering the phone.

Xu Yingying took the phone and said, "Is it Manager Ma of the Zhengcheng Branch of the People's Education Publishing House?" ”

Manager Ma: "I'm Ma Pingyun, what's the matter?" ”

Xu Yingying said: "Hello Manager Ma, I am Xiao Xu of Wanjuan Company, and I just called you yesterday. Do you have time now, I will send you the request for proposals and the list. ”

Manager Ma said, "You send it, and I will notify my colleagues to receive it." ”

Xu Yingying smiled and asked, "Is the fax number 699586?" ”

Manager Ma said, "Yes, you can send it." ”

Xu Yingying hung up the phone and started sending faxes, first put an A4 paper in the card slot, dialed the fax number with the phone on the fax machine, and pressed the send button after waiting for the other party to confirm.

Little by little, the A4 paper enters the fax machine, enters from the top and comes out from the bottom, indicating that the contents of the paper have been sent.

After sending out the bidding form, a list of 30,000 books was sent immediately, and an A4 paper was densely packed with an information list of 300 books, and 30,000 books were 100 sheets of paper.

Faxing a hundred sheets of paper takes a long time, and there is no quick way to fax them one by one.

Four fax machines were working at the same time, and the guys were so busy that they didn't even have time to go to the bathroom.

Li Lin is a little helpless, if this work is left in the Internet era, it will not be a problem.

Convert the bids and lists into PDFs and send them to WeChat, and the 20 publishing houses can do it in a maximum of 10 minutes.

Xu Yingying suddenly said: "We don't have any printer paper, second brother, hurry up and buy two packs." ”

Li Lin said: "Where did Xiaoxi go?" This kind of chores should be in his charge, right? ”

Xu Yingying said: "I don't know where to go, I feel that something is wrong with him after I came back from school yesterday. ”

Li Lin went to the conference room to give the car keys to the bodyguard Chu Fei and asked him to drive to the printing shop to buy printing paper.

The brothers worked overtime until late at night, and the next morning they finally sent all the faxes, and in the afternoon Li Lin called a meeting of the people.

Liu Meina, the leader of the bidding team, reported: "We have sent the bidding documents and lists to 20 publishing houses, and 18 have already given us feedback. ”

Li Lin said: "What kind of feedback, make it clear. ”

Liu Meina opened the document and said: "As of noon today, 12 publishing houses such as People's Literature have sorted out the bids, and the remaining 6 are in the process of sorting them out, and they are expected to be sorted out today." ”

Li Lin said: "You will continue to follow up with the remaining two families, and inform them to enter the venue on time at 9 o'clock in the morning three days later, and they will not wait after the deadline." ”

Liu Meina nodded and said, "Some publishers ask us if we provide them with food and accommodation services. ”

Li Lin said: "Take care of them, and let them solve the problem of food and shelter by themselves." As Party B, it is really funny that Party B dares to ask Party A to provide accommodation. ”

Everyone laughed, and Liu Meina said: "Three publishing houses think that the bid deposit we ask for is too high, and suggest that we reduce the deposit appropriately. ”

Li Lin waved his hand: "If you can't even take out a deposit of 100,000 yuan, then what else is the bid?" Tell them that the deposit is a lot of money. ”

Li Lin asked Xu Yingying: "Have you given them the corporate account?" ”

Xu Yingying said: "It has been sent by fax. ”

Li Lin said: "You go to the bank every day before getting off work to check the remittance records, I want to know which publishing house's deposit has arrived, and let Xitong go with you." ”

Xu Yingying said: "Okay, Mr. Li, I know. ”

Now there is no online banking service, and there is no bank SMS alert service, because mobile phones in China are not yet able to send text messages.

Li Lin asked Xitong: "Do you know?" ”

Xitong sulked his head and didn't react, Xu Yingying hurriedly pushed him, and Xitong looked at Li Lin with a confused face.

Li Lin glared at him and asked, "Do you have anything else?" ”

Liu Meina said: "There are several publishing houses that want your personal phone number, and today at noon, President Tong of the People's Publishing House of Yu Province called to invite you to visit their publishing house. ”

Li Lin said: "I rejected President Tong, just saying that I have been very busy recently, and I can give my mobile phone number to other publishing houses." ”

Liu Meina said: "Okay, Mr. Li, there is no problem on my side." ”

Li Lin looked at Ma Yuanyuan, a chubby girl who was struggling to write, she was making meeting minutes, she was the law graduate recommended by President Zheng Datong.

Ma Yuanyuan felt that someone was watching her and hurriedly raised her head, Li Lin smiled and said, "Sort out the meeting minutes before getting off work and ask me to sign them, if there is nothing to do, let's break up the meeting." ”

Li Lin returned to the office to rest, and when Liu Meina came in to report on the work, the 20 publishing houses that participated in the bidding had already given feedback, saying that they would participate in the bidding on time the day after tomorrow.

After getting off work, Xitong knocked on the door and came to the office, Li Lin threw him a cigarette and said, "Why have you been so soulless in the past two days, and you deserted me during the meeting, what do you want to do?" ”

Xitong lowered his head and apologized: "I'm sorry second brother, I didn't sleep well yesterday, and I dozed off a little today." ”

Li Lin rolled his eyes: "The two of us grew up together, don't you know you yet, tell me the truth!" ”

Xitong still didn't speak, Li Lin smiled, it seems that my younger brother has grown up.

Waving his hand to let him get off work, Li Lin reviewed the minutes of today's meeting, signed his name and locked it in the safe after reading it.

As soon as he turned around and found that his daughter-in-law was outside the door, Li Lin asked with a smile, "Why don't you come in?" ”

Liu Pandi walked in and locked the door, walked to the window and closed the curtains, hugged her husband's waist and raised her face and grinned: "Husband, guess why I'm so happy?" ”

Li Lin nodded the tip of her nose and said, "Do you still need to guess, I got a good score in the last monthly exam." ”

Liu Pandi nodded again and again: "The average score of physics in our class is the first in the whole grade, and the principal praised me by name just now!" ”

Li Lin praised her: "My daughter-in-law is the best, keep up the good work." ”

Liu Pandi looked arrogant and said, "How is your work?" ”

Li Lin said: "I have no problem here, just wait for those publishers to bid the day after tomorrow......"

Before he finished speaking, his mouth was blocked, and the couple began to kiss, and I don't know how long it took for the phone to ring suddenly.

Li Lin didn't want to answer, but his daughter-in-law left his mouth and took out the mobile phone from his pocket, pressed the answer button and put the mobile phone to his ear.

Principal Tong in the earpiece asked, "Does Mr. Li have time tonight?" ”

Li Lin said: "If you have time, please ask Principal Tong to arrange it." ”

Principal Tong smiled: "At 9 o'clock tonight, the Tycoon Disco, a big boss invited us to entertain, bring our younger siblings together." ”
