After getting off the car at the dormitory building, Claire simply hugged him for a while, said goodbye to Selena, and left with her classmates.
The others followed suit and said goodbye to Luke and the others, and then the girls skipped and laughed as they headed towards the dormitory, continuing the topic of Batman.
Luke and Selina looked at each other and smiled, then got into their cars and returned home.
Just when Luke thought that his leisurely life would continue for a while, Ginny suddenly called him: "Luke, I want to ask for your opinion on something."
Luke: “Speak.”
Ginny: "You know about Senator Thompson, right?"
Luke: "Patricia Thompson, a prominent member of the Thompson family, a female council member who has been gaining popularity recently, with a rising approval rating in the polls, and a big shot who is very likely to sit on the throne of the mayor of Los Angeles?"
Ginny: "That's her. Something happened at her home that might be useful to us."
Luke: “What’s going on?”
"One of her nieces went on a trip to Europe with her classmates and is now missing," Ginny replied.
Luke was stunned: "Her niece... is she rich?"
Ginny knew what he meant and said, "Yesterday this young lady secretly planned a trip and deviated from the scheduled route. As a result, she has not been contacted now."
Luke: "So Congressman Thompson came to me?"
Ginny coughed awkwardly, "No, I just learned the news from the side. Because the missing young lady is a major shareholder of Daolong Electronics, our mobile phone chip supplier."
Luke: "... Meaning, if I give her money and buy something from her, I have to save her first?"
Jinny nodded helplessly: "The technology used in our routers requires the authorization of this Daolong company, and the mobile phone chips also need to be supplied by this company in advance so that they can be produced as soon as possible. With Daolong's current production plan, our orders are scheduled until the end of the year."
Luke understood.
The mobile phone company has just started preparing for production, but the order volume for parts is not large.
Without initial market response, it would be impossible for Ginny to fully roll out mobile phone production.
For large electronic parts manufacturers like Daolong, production plans are arranged several months or even a year in advance, and customers are supplied in sequence according to the plan.
As a newly established small company with a small order volume, Titanium Mobile Phone can only queue up according to other people's plans.
Luke frowned and thought for a long time, a little undecided about whether to take on this task.
The main thing is, the other party didn't look for him, so he just... came to them on his own
After hesitating for a while, he finally said, "If possible, it would be best for me to go to the home of this missing young lady to find out more about the situation."
Ginny exhaled: "I'll contact them and give you an answer as soon as possible."
After putting away the phone, Selina asked, "A business trip again?"
Luke shrugged: "Money."
Selina was curious: "A few days ago, Weiland offered 5 million, but you refused it, didn't you?"
Luke sighed: "As for the matter with the cell phone company, even though I am giving them money, if it is not resolved, the cell phone company's profit may be delayed for a while."
Selina shook her head decisively: "Don't mention this to me, I will use my phone and sell it to your eldest daughter."
Luke smiled and said, "How about we go to Europe together this time?"
Selina's heart moved slightly, but when she saw the gold nugget in the rearview mirror, she shook her head and said, "Forget it. You'll be looking for someone if you go there. Claire is also in Los Angeles. Gold nugget and I can take care of her at home."
Luke was silent for a moment, then smiled and nodded: "Okay."
When Selina mentioned the gold nugget, she was, of course, saying that it could ensure Claire's safety in an emergency.
She never forgot that there might be another earthquake in Los Angeles.
When Luke thought about this, he no longer wanted to go to Europe.
It doesn't seem to matter if mobile phone companies make money later.
If an earthquake happens in Los Angeles, he would like to go out and play under the Batman vest.
Ginny acted quickly and sent a message in the evening, saying that she could take him to the Thompson's house the next afternoon.
Luke did not refuse. He was still calculating the pros and cons between the two.
During this half day, he repeatedly considered the situation.
The possible earthquake in Los Angeles involves his reputation with Batman, which can attract attention and earn a large number of experience points.
But his last trip to Paris brought him a lot.
At that time, he didn't want to make his abnormality too obvious, so he accompanied Elena on vacation for the next week to relax. Otherwise, he would have gained more experience points.
Thinking of this, Luke's hands still felt a little itchy.
Moreover, the present is different from the past. He unconsciously scanned the storage space.
After the last expansion, it seemed empty even though Luke put a lot of his previous gains in it.
Maybe after this time, I can do something small? Luke muttered to himself.
The next afternoon, Luke and Ginny, who had just returned from a flight, got in the company car and headed to the Thompson family in San Diego.
This is Malachi Thompson's home, not Congresswoman Patricia Thompson's home.
The Thompson family has spread across the United States, with California being their base.
But Malachi Thompson is also an important figure in the Thompson family.
Congresswoman Thompson, who is a big shot in Los Angeles, is just a little sister in front of this big man.
Luke had no idea how Ginny got this meeting opportunity.
Just by looking at her tired and nervous expression, he knew that she had put in a lot of effort.
Reaching out his hand and patting her back, he smiled and said, "Don't be nervous. Even if this doesn't work out, our mobile phone company will still be able to make money. Success will eventually belong to us."
Ginny was stunned for a moment, then relaxed her tense body and leaned against him: "Well, you are always so calm, as if this company is not yours."
Luke chuckled. “Do you remember when we first met? At that time, you were still a young lady, and you looked worried and restless just because you bought some weeds.”
Ginny hit him angrily: "Don't mention that."
But when she said this, she couldn't help laughing out loud.
Thinking about the situation when she and Luke met, and now working hard for the mobile phone company that has just seen the light of day, the difference between the two is like heaven and earth.
"Well, maybe I was too nervous. After all, this was my first time," she said.
Luke was shocked: "What? Wasn't I your first time?"
Ginny was stunned for a moment, then she punched him several times in anger: "Hey, we are talking about serious business."
Luke smiled and hugged her: "Have you forgotten what I said? Between the chairman and the president, everything they talk about is business."
By the time the two arrived at the Thompsons' house, Ginny looked much better when she got out of the car, and her nervousness had basically disappeared.
With Luke's guidance, she took a short nap in the car and finally adjusted her state.
