提交了第5个申请，只是。。。出了点问题。

系统竟然付费窗口和提交窗口独立，要先付费再提交，可怜的我先提交了。然后也不敢付费了。。。

发了个邮件询问，人家要29号才上班。。可怜啊，可怕啊。。

ps的开头改到了第五次。路过的帮忙看看啊。

In 2004, to understand the key to efficient manufacturing, I visited Langsha Knitting Corporation, the world’s second largest socks manufacturer. The entrepreneur told me: “Efficient manufacturing was not the whole story, while effective marketing is the key to the success.” It was the first time that I amazed at the power of marketing. What I saw was producing 4,500 pairs in a minute, while what I could hardly imagine was marketing the same number to customers during the same single minute, even at an average price of 5 times higher than its local competitors. It was effective marketing that drove the company to efficient manufacturing.

    ps 又改了很多遍。

    完成了第4个申请。

    申请是靠缘分的。申请这个前给一个在读中国phd学生发了个邮件，没想到她回得很快，而且两周后在上海。虽然由于行程紧没能和echo见上面，但还是打电话咨询了近1个小时。

    期待能继续和这个学校的缘分~

   

 

     Dr. Frank M. Bass(1906--2006), often called the “Father of Marketing Science,” died on December 1, 2006 at his home. At age 79, he was in his 25th year as a professor of marketing science in the School of Management at The University of Texas at Dallas. Professor Bass’s research and that of his students was pivotal in establishing marketing as a quantitative science.

     Dr. Bass's contribution has been highly recognized as he opened the door of quantative research in marketing. It was him and his students who turned marketing to be a science.  My teacher Trichy V Krishnan is his student. And Bass model was the first model I learnt in marketing. For future research, Bass model is clearly one of my research area. Wish new students and scholars every success in bringing Bass's contribution to further status.

     It's a really bad news. Let's remember this "Father of Marketing Science"---Dr. Frank M. Bass 

又完成了两个，纯粹扔钱的。

如果录取概率大于0.1%，那么期望收益还是大于投资的。
