A: Hello, did you tell Mr. Lee that I called?

B: How are you doing Mr. Hammond, unfortunately he has been in meetings all day so I didn’t have a chance to let
him know.

A: Okay, but what I need to talk about is very urgent, our subsidiary is ready to risk it all on a new expansion, and I
need Mr. Lee’s opinion on it.

B: All the divisions of the company are trying to end on a high note so they are either taking big risks or making
changes to make a lot of profits before the year ends.

A: Exactly, I heard Mr. Lee went back to the drawing board on his project, too. I guess that’s why he has so many
meetings. Well, please tell Mr. Lee that I called again. And thank you for your help.

B: I will certainly let him know and it’s completely my pleasure .
