It is said to belong to Evan's office, but there is no sign hanging on the door, and it looks like an ordinary reception room.

In fact, Evan does not have a formal position in Magic7. He is not yet an adult, so it is impossible for him to join the company.

Evan freely entered and exited the factory in the name of the director of Magic7.

A small company is a small company, and no one cares about anyone who is a director.

Henry walked into the office and shook hands affectionately with Evan.

"Hi, Magic boy, we're meeting again."

This is not the first time that Henry, who is thirty-five, has dealt with Evan. After accidentally knowing that it was the Rubik's Cube that Evan invented, he called him that.

"I heard that you tried the production today, what was the result? When will I buy it on the market?"

"Good afternoon, Henry! You still look so energetic! Please sit down!" Evan smiled and said, "About the trial, it went smoothly. It won't take long to give it to your son as a birthday gift. I just hope he won't be angry because he can't untie the Rubik's Cube."

The two sat opposite each other and someone soon sent two cups of coffee.

Henry smiled and said, "Haha, then I'll wait for your good news."

He took a sip of coffee and asked, "By the way, how are my company's products used? Is there any place to improve?"

"If so, please make sure to ask. Our company will fully cooperate with your request."

"Don't worry, Henry!" Evan said: "At present, there is no supplier that meets our requirements more than your company."

Henry said: "So, about orders..."

After finalizing this order, Henry's performance will increase a lot, which is the main purpose of Henry's visit today.

Evan narrowed his eyes and said, "Henry, you have to talk to Davidson about the order. I am just a director, not a supply chain manager."

"I was rude!" Henry smiled awkwardly. He knew that Evan was the real owner of Magic7, but the basic rules still had to be followed.

"This is a small matter, Henry!" Evan waved his hand indifferently and said, "You like the Rubik's Cube, I like it, and many people like it, so once it is launched, its sales can be expected."

"So, your orders are indispensable!"

"I just hope you don't have any problems with the supply then..."

"Of course this won't be!!" Henry promised: "We are professional, goodwill is our foundation, and we will never have any problems with product supply."

"That's good!" Evan nodded: "Then it's settled."

"Thank you, Evan!" Henry immediately showed his like, "By the way, I have ordered dinner at the Elk Tower. I don't know if you are free in Evan tonight..."

"This is no need!" Evan waved his hand and rejected his invitation. "By the way, I heard that 3M has strong strength in the glue product, so I want to consult."

The invitation was rejected directly. Henry was a little regretful at first. As expected, such a person was not so easy to get in touch. Seeing that Evan had something to ask, Henry immediately cheered up: "Evan, do you want to buy glue?"

Evan said: "That's right, is there such a glue in your product line? It doesn't need to be too sticky, but it can be used multiple times and there will be no residual glue when glued to metal and plastic."

"Well..." Evan's request was a bit strange. Generally speaking, people always require that the stronger the glue, the better the glue. This requirement was basically not mentioned before. As a senior salesperson, Henry knew the company's product line very well, so he knew that his company did not meet Evan's requirements after a moment of thinking about it. "I'm sorry, Evan..."

Evan lowered his head in disappointment when he heard this.

Henry asked tentatively: "Evan, is this glue useful to you?"

Evan said: "That's right..."

Henry made a suggestion: "If so, I can apply to the headquarters to have the R&D department develop this glue specifically."

"Yes!" Evan slapped his thigh when he heard this, as if Henry's suggestion reminded him, "Since there is no, I can specialize in developing it!"

Evan stared at Henry with a burning look and asked, "Henry, your company's R&D team is strong. I wonder if your company accepts commissioned R&D?"

“Trust research and development?”

"Yes, we provide the target performance indicators and pay the corresponding R&D expenses. You develop for me. The patent rights generated belong to us. Of course, sharing is not impossible to discuss."

"This..." Evan's proposal sounded very good, but Henry was just a sales manager and had no right to make such a decision. But if he refused in person, he was afraid of affecting the order, so he hesitated.

After hesitating, Evan immediately said, "No? Then forget it..."

Then he lowered his head and muttered, "I don't know if Dow, DuPont and others will accept this order..."

As soon as Hearing the names "Dow" and "DuPont", Henry immediately became nervous. Stickers are not exclusive business, they can't do it if they are not 3M. If...

Thinking of this, Henry immediately changed his words, "Wait, Evan, I think your proposal is very good."

"Is that true? Your company wants to take over this commission?" Evan looked up at Henry and secretly put pressure on him.

Henry nodded and said, "Of course!"

Although this is definitely overstepping the authority, for the sake of order... it has to be delayed until the contract is signed.

"Okay, let's talk about the details of the entrustment contract!"

"This, Evan, although I want to make a decision as soon as possible, I am not a professional. If it comes to a contract, I need to get the lawyer at the headquarters to come." Henry thought it was perfect, but he still looked at Evan anxiously, "Why don't we set a new time?"

Evan touched his chin, and felt that Henry was right, so he nodded and said, "It's OK, but I hope it's faster..."

Henry suggested: "Look, how about next Wednesday?"

"Well... OK, after all, it will take some time for your lawyer to come from Minnesota." Evan thought for a while, "then I'll make it. Next Wednesday, I'll wait for you."

As he said that, Evan stood up and reached out to shake hands.

The matter has been completed, and it is time to see off the guests.

Henry stood up together, reached out and held Evan with his hand.

After seeing Henry off, Carl walked into the office, looked at Evan, who was sitting on the sofa with his legs crossed, and looked proud, and said in confusion: "Evan, why do you have to let 3M take over the commissioned research and development?"

Evan glanced at Carl and did not answer his question.

Could it be that he wanted to tell Carl that because that kind of glue was developed by 3M? He just had a bad taste and wanted to restore "history".

It is not sticky and can be used repeatedly. What can this glue do?

The answer is simple, post-it notes!

Post-it notes are one of the "magic tools" of the office and are deeply loved by office workers, especially creatives.

The back of the sticky sticker is sticky, so you can record what you want to do, then tear it off and stick it in an easy-to-see place to remind yourself of what to do, and also use it to inform people of information, which is very convenient.

In the last life, the invention of post-it notes was very accidental. The inventor of its glue was originally going to study a glue with strong stickiness, but unexpectedly got a weak glue. Just when everyone was frustrated, his colleague Arthur Fulai discovered the value of this weak glue. When Arthur attended the week, he was accustomed to putting a note in the songbook as a mark, but the note often fell off when turning the page. He thought: "If there is a glue that is a bit sticky but not too sticky, it can be pasted on the note, and it can be repeatedly teared and pasted without destroying the paper, that would be perfect!"

So there is a post-it note.

Since Evan didn't want to say it, Carl stopped asking, but changed to another question: "Do you have to hand over all sticker orders to 3M?"

Evan shook his head without thinking, "No, Carl, if there is no problem with the supply chain, the supplier must not be the only one."

"Although for the time being, only 3M is qualified, don't underestimate the strength of other companies. Therefore, don't break the contacts you should have, and keep their motivation for research and development."

Carl nodded, indicating that he knew.

Four days later, Henry came to Magic7 again, and with him two colleagues, one of whom was responsible for negotiating with Magic.

Henry was lucky that 3M headquarters did not refuse to entrust research on such matters, on the condition that patent rights were shared.

Henry was very excited when the sticker contract was successfully won.

The entrustment contract was not so smooth, and Magic was responsible for the negotiations.

The two parties had differences on the ownership of patent rights, funding payment, R&D process audit and other aspects, and it took three days to discuss it.

This is because Evan had instructions that the contract could be reached so quickly. Otherwise, Carl would have to talk more than ten days before he could complete it.

June is approaching, summer vacation is approaching, and Evan and Audrey's time at Sacramento High School will also come to an end.

Seeing that there was not much time left, Kai Luoer was silent every day.

She couldn't bear to part with Audrey!

Although Kai Luoer is the eldest sister in the class, with outstanding appearance and many people around her, few of them are friends who can make friends with each other. Although she has not been with Audrey for a long time, she is the one that Kai Luoer values ​​the most.

"Audrey, you went to Los Angeles, don't forget me!"

At the lunch party one day, Kailuo said, holding Audrey's hand.

Audrey replied: "Of course not, Kai Luo, don't you know the address of my house? My house will not move out in a short period of time. You can send me a letter."

"As soon as I arrive at school, I will write to you. OK, don't be sad, Kai Luoer, come and laugh."

"Besides, if you can't find Audrey, can you still find me?" Evan interrupted.

It would be fine if Evan didn't interrupt, but when he interrupted, Roll would feel even worse.

"Shut up, Evan, there's nothing you have to do with you! It would be nice if I didn't cause trouble for you. If it weren't for you, Audrey wouldn't have left!"
Chapter completed!
