M: Hi, Naomi.
W: I'm calling about the conference in Shanghai on November 8th. We have to make some changes.
M: OK, go ahead.
W: I don't think the peace guardian will be big enough. We need a center that can seat at least 600.
M: That many? Any suggestions?
W: The Palace Center will be free that day, but it will mean increasing the registration fee by $50. From $800 to $850.
M: That won't be a problem. Anything else?
W: Milan University says they are sending Carla Marisco instead of Professor Bertoni. But the talk would be the same, Opportunities and Risks in the African Market.
M: Fine. Make those changes and all inform everyone at my end.
