Chapter 226 Data
Two more weeks passed in a flash.
On the first Saturday of October, Evan appeared at the company in a suit.
There are many special places in working in Evan’s company, two of which are most prominent. One is that the salary is high, especially R&D and management positions, which are generally at least 10% higher than their peers. The other is that most employees also need to work on Saturdays, because Saturday is the time for their big boss to work.
The schedule of this Saturday is not much different from the past, mainly meetings and various meetings. There are meetings that review the progress of various projects of the R&D Department of Applied Physical Systems Company, and meetings that review the sales and promotion strategies of various products, including Applied Physical Systems Company and Applied Healthcare Company.
Today's meeting had relatively few agendas, and all the established things were over in one morning. In the afternoon, Evan had a rare free time and chatted with Carl in the general manager's office while drinking afternoon tea.
The topic of the chat started with two new assistants around Carl.
At this time, the two assistants were also in the office.
They were Linda, and her roommate and senior sister, Elizabeth Chambers.
"Carl, they've been working for a while, how do they feel?"
In front of the two, Evan asked.
Linda was forced to Carl for these two assistants, and she could only be considered part-time jobs. Elizabeth is different. She is in her senior year and needs a serious job to increase her competitiveness. She entered the company with a normal recruitment interview process. Except for asking Linda to recommend it at the beginning, she did not open the back door.
As for why Elizabeth wanted to join the Applied Physical Systems Company, in addition to knowing that Linda also wanted to go to this company, she was also very optimistic about this company.
Carl glanced at the two women who were sitting at the desk on the surface to sort out the information, but actually listened carefully, and said in a voice that was neither high nor low: "Elizabeth got into the state very quickly, took the initiative in work, and did things meticulously and seriously, no worse than Ginny."
Ginny was Carl's original assistant, a blonde beauty. She has been with him for more than a year. Recently, due to some special reasons, she had to resign, so Carl wanted to recruit a new assistant.
"Is that so? That's good..." Evan sighed secretly with a look of relief on his face.
OK, it seems that it won't work if you want to find an excuse to drive Linda back to school.
"What are you going to do when it comes to assistant, Carl, Ginny?"
Others don’t know the reason for Ginny’s resignation, but Evan couldn’t be unclear. Carl smiled wryly and touched his nose, saying, “What else can I do? That’s all!”
"Oh... I wandered around the flowers all day long, but I didn't expect to be trapped."
Evan asked, "Did Old Patton know?"
"That's right!" said Carl. "It was because he knew that I lost my choice."
"Old Patton wanted to hold his grandson and was crazy, and he didn't know what he was anxious about?"
"Evan, I'm only twenty-eight years old..."
"Twenty-eight is not young anymore," Evan said. "It's time to find a partner to start a family."
Carl said: "BOSS, you don't understand this. Do you still need to start a family if you find a partner?"
Evan shut up and didn't want to delve into this topic with him.
Because he felt a sharp gaze looking at him.
In this room, there is only one person who dares to do this.
After taking a sip of black tea, Evan changed the topic and said, "I won't talk about this."
He saw a newspaper casually placed on the sofa, took it over and asked while flipping, "Do you still have time to pay attention to the election?"
This is a Washington Post, and the cover headlines are related to the election.
Carl said: "That's what I said, my boss is the candidate's son. Do I dare not pay attention?"
"That's right!" After Evan looked at the cover article at a glance, he put the newspaper aside, "It's easy to win the Republican Party, what do you think?"
Carl looked at Evan with a expressionless face and couldn't grasp the purpose of his question for a while, so he answered carefully: "The Post's view may be too optimistic, but..."
"You think the Republicans will win, too?" Evan said.
"Yes." Carl hesitated for a moment before nodding slightly, while looking at Evan with a puzzled look: "No, BOSS, your tone... don't you want the Republicans to win?"
The Republican Party won, and Evan is the son of the Vice President of the United States. With this background, it will be of great benefit to the industry he founded.
The reason why Carl is so concerned about the election is because he has to prepare in advance to deal with the impact of Earl Warren as vice president.
"Of course not, I also want the Republicans to win," Evan said. "After all, I'm quite curious about the White House. Earl became the vice president, and no one cares about me when I go shopping every day."
After hearing Evan's words, Linda, who had been paying attention to them, suddenly put down her work, walked towards Evan, and forced herself into the conversation between the two: "Evan, do you think the Republican Party will lose? Why?"
Although Elizabeth did not stop working, her speed slowed down significantly.
Evan glanced at Linda and said unhappily: "Linda, you seem to have work to do?"
Linda said willfully: "Then tell me the reason quickly, I'll leave after hearing it."
Evan sighed speechlessly.
"I have my reasons for judging that the Republican Party may lose, and I can't explain it clearly for a while."
Linda thought Evan was perfunctory to her and was suddenly unhappy: "If you don't say it, don't say it..."
Evan pretended that he hadn't heard Linda's complaint and continued to explain: "I'll just talk about some facts."
"First, I have someone to track and collect the specific situation of the election rallies of candidates from both parties, including frequency, on-site responses, number of participants, etc. The result is that our current president, Truman, is far more diligent than Thomas Dewey and is more popular with voters."
"Secondly, although Truman made a lot of trouble in the past two years, he actually couldn't blame him for this. Recently, with the implementation of the Marshall Plan, the economy has begun to improve."
"Third, Truman's promised policies, especially civil rights promises, have gained favor from many middle and lower-class people."
Linda heard the words and thought for a moment before retorting: "What you said is too vague and there is no clear data support."
"And according to the latest news reports, Thomas Dewey's support leads a lot."
Evanton said for a moment, "Linda, don't be too superstitious about news and data."
"I just say one fact that the poll data on the news comes from telephone surveys, and there are many areas supporting Truman that have not yet spoken on the phone."
Linda was stunned.
Elizabeth covered her mouth in surprise.
