Michael Lin made my day vivid when I read his description of Shirley below.
We are all over CIC for Gordon and we have introduced your 3 other clients into the mix. May as well kick all this along faster. I have alerted Arlene so she is in the loop but I did not show her this email. 
Talk to you all soon

Jimmy,

I just had a good chat with Shirley.  She's tender and nice.  We talked
about Edgewater and the other three fund houses.

   - Edgewater:  She'll definitely get back to us and Edgewater as to 1)
   what CIC needs next (info.), and 2) their trip to the US to meet with
   Edgewater.
   - The other three funds:  She'll reply to my email as to if and which
   one(s) CIC would like to meet either in China or in the US.  She
   specifically said sending her more detailed info of the three firms is
   important: the funds' description, investment philosophy/strategy,
   management teams, sizes/scales of funds, length/history of funds and of
   course more importantly returns/track records. (We should get the info soon
   from Arlene for us to refine and send over to Shirley.)

Regards,

Michael
