The cafe party ended near noon, and Evan invited everyone to have lunch before they parted.

When Davidson and others returned to the factory in North Sacramento, it was already two o'clock in the afternoon.

As soon as he entered the office, the secretary came to inform him: "Sir, Mr. Henry is waiting for you in the reception room."

Davidson asked while taking off his coat, "Henry? 3M?"

The secretary nodded, reached out to take Davidson's coat and said, "Yes, in addition, the Kimberley Manager of Clark Paper Company called to ask you for dinner together, and the time will be yours."

"I get it." Davidson sat in the chair, and the secretary hung his coat on the hanger, and stood aside and waited for instructions.

"You remember and help me reply to Kimberley. The time is set at night, Elk Restaurant, I'll invite him."

"Now, please help me bring Mr. Henry over."

The secretary answered: "Okay."

A few minutes later, Henry walked into the office.

Henry and Davidson are old acquaintances. When they were first founded at Magic Seven Company, their first cooperation with 3M was negotiated by Henry. Since then, he has always been in contact with Magic Seven Company. During the three years of Magic Seven Company's development and growth, Henry has also successfully advanced from a regional manager to a deputy general manager.

"Hey, old guy, I heard you were not at the company in the morning, where are you going to have fun?"

Henry quipped as soon as he met.

"It's nothing, I just went to relax for a long time."

Davidson said with a relaxed expression: "Please sit down."

"Tell me, I'm still coming to me when the holiday is coming soon. Is there anything wrong?"

"Or, it's still for that matter?"

Henry sat down opposite Davidson, crossed his legs and nodded: "Yes."

"Man, we come with sincerity, as long as you want, the price will be satisfied."

"I know Clark Paper has this meaning, and I advise you not to pay attention to them. As far as I know, Clark is a virtuous person and stingy!"

“…”

Davidson looked at Henry with a smile and slandered potential competitors. After Henry talked endlessly about a lot of things, he said, "Henry, I know what you mean."

"However, I'm sorry, Post-it is not going to sell it."

"Huh?" Davidson suddenly expressed his attitude and stunned Henry. He was obviously sitting and watching 3M fight with Clark just now.

strangeness?

According to the company's speculation, Davidson should not be able to make a decision alone?

Could it be...

Henry thought of something, and after hesitating for a moment, he looked at Davidson and said, "Well, it's a pity to hear this news..."

"Well, I'll ask, Mr. Warren is back to Sacramento, right?"

Davidson said: "That's right."

The guess in his heart was verified, and Henry's doubts suddenly dissipated. He stopped talking nonsense, stood up and said, "Since that's the case, I won't disturb you anymore."

Davidson looked at Henry unexpectedly and asked, "Don't you give it a try?"

Henry shook his head, "No, Mr. Warren doesn't want to sell it. We 3M will not force ourselves against his intentions. You must know that you are our big customer."

"By the way, man, can I consult you for the sake of our close partners?"

Davidson reached out to signal him to be at will.

Henry asked: "I want to invite Mr. Warren to dinner. Do you think I have a chance?"

Davidson smiled and said, "I don't know this, but you can try it."

Henry thought for a while and shook his head, "Forget it, although Mr. Warren and I are old acquaintances, isn't this Christmas? I won't bother him."

After saying that, Henry said goodbye and left.

After he left, Davidson sat back on his chair and breathed a sigh of relief.

Judging from Henry's attitude, the worst case scenario that was expected was impossible. Clark and 3M did not conspire, but just simply took a fancy to the post-its product.

At night, the restaurant of the Elk Tower.

Davidson, who had been under pressure, also downplayed and directly rejected the acquisition intention of Clark manager Kimberly.

Meanwhile, the Governor's residence.

After dinner, the Warren family gathered in the living room and, accompanied by the TV program, held a family meeting with the theme of "Year-End Summary".

This is proposed by Nina (this is fine).

"Everyone is getting older and getting further and further away from home. Although there are phone calls, it only costs one call a week at most. This makes my mother feel more and more dereliction of duty."

"I'm very happy that you have your own career, but as mothers, you will inevitably worry if you don't understand it. So, I want to hear what you have done this year, not only succeed but also fail."

At the beginning, Nina said to the brothers and sisters of Virginia and Evan, "Well, it's not good for you to say it alone, so let's just come with the whole family."

"Dear, what do you think?"

At home, Nina's status was supreme, so Earl became the first family member to publish an "annual summary".

With Evan's slightly cramped eyes and Robert's admiring eyes, looking at him with anticipation on the surface, but actually focusing on Dora on the TV, Earl said, "Well, I am my father and the governor, I will summarize this year from these two identities."

"As a governor, I seem to be a bit dereliction of duty this year. As we all know, I participated in the presidential election but failed. For this reason, Nina also let me suffer and suffer. At the same time, there are some problems in California. Well, I won't talk about it in detail here."

"As a father, I seem to be even more incompetent. I agreed to go to see the show between Dora and Doroth, but I missed the appointment. I was not here on Robert's birthday. I didn't attend your parents' meeting once."

As Earl spoke, she suddenly became sad. Seeing this, Dorothy suddenly stood up from the sofa, threw herself into Earl's arms, hugged him and said, "It's okay, we understand, papa."

Earl held Dorothy and pressed her forehead intimately. At this time, Dora jumped up and forced herself into Earl's arms, "Dorthy, you are not allowed to eat alone."

Earl laughed, spread his arms, giving Dora a little room.

"Father, you've finished reporting. It's my next time." Virginia clapped her hands and asked loudly on purpose to dispel the originally depressed atmosphere. "I've gained a lot this year."

Virginia looked like she couldn't wait to show off.

Nina secretly wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, glared at her daughter with a angrily look, and said, "If you want to say it, say it quickly. I want to hear what you did in Los Angeles?"
