Chapter 26 Preparations

The idea of ​​establishing a new company has been brewing since the day Carl successfully took Carlson, but it has been dragging it on because it has not decided what product to make.

The new company Magic7 and Alphabet have different positionings. It will have its own products, its own factories, and a complete sales team. Alphabet specializes in patent fees and is also considered the parent company of Magic7.

Evan has two purposes for establishing this company. One of the purposes is to train workers and sales teams for "electronic photography", namely, the productization of photocopiers. The sales team is the focus and the workers are by the way. Every new product needs a process from being launched to being accepted by customers. Even if the product is excellent, the same is true. The sales team can accelerate this process. With a mature sales team, Evan is not afraid that he will finally make a copying machine, but when he is halfway through, he is copied by a large company and then comes from behind.

The second purpose is to train himself and cultivate his direct descendants. He is only in the tenth grade, which is equivalent to the first year of high school, but he has nothing to learn in school and does not want to go to college early. Therefore, Evan decided to continue to go to high school in the next time, and secretly learn how to manage a company. Improve his management ability and have a group of loyal subordinates. These are necessary and useful for Evan, who intends to "restore" huge inventions by himself.

Just talking and doing nothing. I thought that if there was a "prophet" to be a hand-off manager, I wanted to "achieve the peak of my life". This kind of good thing was just taken for granted.

Evan finally chose the Rubik's Cube product, which also started from these two purposes.

Rubik's Cube is a brand new toy. How to make and sell the Rubik's Cube well? Evan believes that after solving these two points, the sales team and ability he wants will be trained.

After Evan revealed his plan to Carl, Carl was shocked and silent for a long time. With his insight, he naturally knew how amazing Evan's plan was.

Who in this world will start preparing four or five years in advance for a project that you don’t know if it can be successful?

Who in this world would invent a product specifically in order to set up a company to cultivate people?

When Carl thought of this, he wanted to open Evan's head to see if it had been transformed by aliens. Considering that he was his boss and the governor's son, Carl gave up.

After the shock, Carl became more determined to make his choice.

With such a genius boss, your future life will not be too boring!

So, Carl, who had re-engaged his psychological construction, pulled Evan and asked him in detail about the new company Magic7.

In Carl's office, the two sat opposite each other, with a coffee table separated by a tea table, and a pizza carton was placed on it. Carl held a pen in his left hand and a notebook in his right hand, and asked, "How much are you going to invest in the preparation of Magic7?"

Evan gave an answer that he had considered long ago: "Invest 100,000 first!"

Carl asked while recording: "Does it all come from Alphabet? Do you want to find some more investors?"

"Well, you reminded me, come into contact with those plastic manufacturers one by one, and ask if they are interested? If so, leave a 10% share." Speaking of this, Evanton said: "By the way, are you interested? If so, you can also invest a little!"

Carl said: "Well, I have to think about it. I don't have much savings on my hands, so I'm afraid I'll be wasted!"

Evan pretended to be dissatisfied and said, "Tsk! It's time to go, don't say I didn't give you a chance."

Carl joked: "Since you are so confident, I'll cut off some of my budget for birthday gifts."

Evan also joked: "Don't, I think the risk is very high, you'd better buy a birthday gift."

"Uh... let's PASS first, let's continue to talk about the serious matter." Although it was a joke, Carl always felt that Evan was very thick-skinned when he said this. "Since he was going to build a factory, where is the factory located?"

Evan said for granted: "Where can it be? Since I want to get involved, I can only be in Sacramento, and I can't run around."

Carl thought for a while and nodded, "Well, this is the case, but fortunately, Sacramento has convenient transportation and the toy factory relies on not many supply chains, which is also a good choice. Then, address this PASS. Next, staff team. Evan, you have to explain who to recruit in the preparation stage. This is different from preparing for Alphabet. You know, I can only say three types of people if I ask me to mention, lawyer, accountant, and front desk lady."

"Carl, I thank you for your honesty. By the way, did you personally ask Jane, who seemed to have two bowling balls on the front desk, who was the one who was plastered on his chest?" Evan looked at Carl with a squinting look.

"No...well, I admit it."

Evan curled his lips and said, "I didn't expect that this type of your hobby..."

"Stop, Evan, please talk about the serious matter!" The more you ran, the more you were, Carl quickly stopped, and if this continued, it would probably be endless.

Evan had to go back to the serious matter: "Recruiting people, right? Since you asked sincerely, I'll be more specific.

First of all, I plan to use plastic for the Rubik's Cube material, so someone needs to know that plastics must not be missing from plastic production to molds. I suggest you go to United Carbon Company or DuPont to poach people.

Secondly, people who know how to use assembly lines and automated production. I hope that the production of Rubik's Cube will minimize manpower.

Finally, and most importantly, the person in charge of the sales team, you can do this without rushing, just take it slowly and implement it before the Rubik's Cube production line starts.”

"Well, these are what I think of for the time being. You should first attract people, and if there are any missing ones, then you will talk about them."

Speaking of the serious business, Evan said with great thoughts, and Carl wrote down one by one: "Okay, I've recorded it. Well, do we only produce Rubik's Cube product? Don't you need to recruit some people in design and R&D?"

Evan smiled: "Hey, Carl, you're in a hurry. It's not too late to sell the Rubik's Cube first. But you're right, add a packaging design person. I'm responsible for the product improvement for the time being."

Carl didn't agree: "You are the boss, you have the final say."

At this point when the Magic7 company was discussed, Carl felt that it was almost done, so he suggested: "Let's just be here today, how about it? You can take a break here and wait until the time is over before picking up Carlson and the others to the hotel?"

Evan nodded and said, "You are the driver, you have the final say. By the way, I'll use the phone."

When Carl heard this, he said nothing, left the office alone and brought an empty pizza box.

Does Evan need to tell Carl specifically when he uses the phone? Of course not!

But Evan said it anyway, which only means that Evan doesn't want someone to listen to him and call him.

Carl, who heard the singularity and thoughts, silently gave up the office.
Chapter completed!
