Hearing Flynnâs words, Lucas said, âThereâs nothing inappropriate about it. Cheyenne is indeed my wife, but she lacks experience managing large corporations, and her business ideas might not be comparable to yours.
âIf her abilities can surpass yours in all aspects in the future, and she has made a major contribution to the Stardust Corporation, Iâll appoint her as the general manager!
âAlso, no matter what, Cheyenne is a newcomer to the Stardust Corporation. If she replaces a hardworking employee like you as the general manager just because sheâs my wife, Iâm afraid the other employees will be dissatisfied, and they wonât respect Cheyenne.â
Hearing this, Flynn finally realized what he had neglected.
In every workplace, those transferred from outside the company into their positions were most prone to criticism.
!!
Lucasâs consideration was clearly appropriate.
âLucas, I know what to do. Iâll redraft the appointment letters in a bit!â Flynn said seriously after understanding this.
âOkay.â Lucas nodded. âHave all the relevant procedures for the land we bought yesterday been completed?â
Flynn said, âYes, all the procedures have been completed, and we have also gone to the land administration bureau for the property transfer procedures. The plot of land already belongs to the Stardust Corporation.
âI plan to get people to start designing Stardust City. Once the design is finalized, we can set up the engineering team and prepare to begin construction!â
Flynn was extremely excited at the thought of the construction plan of Stardust City.
He suddenly said, âLucas, hereâs the thing. One of my professors when I was a graduate student is a renowned architect, and I intend to ask her to help with the design of Stardust City. Iâm planning to visit her this afternoon.
âIf I can really get the professor to help us, Stardust City will definitely be more vibrant, and there might even be a chance for it to leave a mark in history!â
Since Flynn was singing praises of the professor, Lucas reckoned that the latter might be an unparalleled talent.
Lucas nodded. âIt will be best if we can get your professorâs help. Iâm free this afternoon, so letâs go meet the professor.â
Hearing this, Flynn was naturally happy. âAlright. If we go together, the professor will definitely be over the moon! She once said that her greatest dream in life is to design a city on her own! Now, her dream is finally going to come true!â
Lucas asked Flynn about the professorâs details and learned that her name was Gemma Crawford. She was almost 70 years old, but due to her significant and numerous contributions throughout her life, Georgetown University had hired her again to educate students.
Lucas had always had great respect for devoted educators. Flynn called Gemma and arranged to meet her at Georgetown University in two hours.
Flynn drove Lucas to the architecture department of Georgetown University.
After waiting in the library for a bit, Professor Gemma Crawford walked over to the two of them with a cloth bag containing some books and sketches.
The old woman in front of them had a head full of neatly-combed silver hair. There were wrinkles on her face, and her glasses made her look composed and dignified.
âProfessor Crawford! Iâm Flynn Davis, a former student of yours!â Flynn stepped forward and greeted respectfully.
âYeah, I still remember you.â Gemma nodded slightly without much expression, remaining very composed.
Flynn introduced, âProfessor Crawford, this is the chairman of the Stardust Corporation and my current boss, Lucas Gray.â
Lucas stepped forward and politely greeted her. âHello, itâs a pleasure to meet you.â
Gemma merely nodded at Lucas in greeting. But then she frowned and asked Flynn with displeasure, âWhy did you bring someone here to see me?â
Flynn hurriedly said, âProfessor Crawford, listen to me. I remember that you always had a dream of designing a city of your own, right?â
After Gemma heard this, there was some obvious nostalgia on her aged face. She sighed and said, âItâs indeed my lifelong dream, but I donât think I can ever fulfill it.â
âNo, Professor Crawford, you still have a chance. Itâs right in front of you now!â Flynn smiled and looked at Lucas next to him. âLucas and I have a vision to design a city within a city completely of our own, with fully functional buildings designed and developed by ourselves. Lucas has already approved the plan. Professor Crawford, are you interested in participating in the design and construction of Stardust City?â
âAre you serious?â A surge of excitement appeared on Gemmaâs face. She grabbed Flynnâs arm, her eyes glistening. âAre you really planning to build a city?â
Flynn nodded excitedly. âYes, we are! Just yesterday afternoon, we bought a large plot of vacant land over 120 acres in the eastern suburbs of DC. We intend to build our first Stardust City there!â
âFurthermore, weâre not only going to build one Stardust City. Weâre building one in more than twenty major cities in the US!
âNow, weâre just waiting for the design to be finalized, and then we can begin construction!
âProfessor Crawford, we are here today to invite you to design the blueprint for Stardust City!â
The more Gemma listened, the more excited she became, and even her wrinkled face lit up with joy. âOkay, okay! Letâs go to the eastern suburbs to survey the land right now!â
Gemma was extremely excited, and she wished she could drag Flynn and Lucas to the plot of land immediately.
âUh, please wait, Professor. Itâs almost lunchtime now. Letâs go after we eat!â Flynn said helplessly.
Gemma waved her hands and said firmly, âNo, we donât have time for that. Letâs go now! We can just buy some food on the way! Letâs go quickly!â
