Hearing Flynn’s words, Lucas said, “There’s nothing inappropriate about it. Cheyenne is indeed my wife, but shecks experience managingrge corporations, and her business ideas might not beparable to yours.
“If her abilities can surpass yours in all aspects in the future, and she has made a major contribution to the Stardust Corporation, I’ll appoint her as the general manager!
“Also, no matter what, Cheyenne is a neer to the Stardust Corporation. If she reces a hardworking employee like you as the general manager just because she’s my wife, I’m afraid the other employees will be dissatisfied, and they won’t respect Cheyenne.”
Hearing this, Flynn finally realized what he had neglected.
In every workce, those transferred from outside thepany into their positions were most prone to criticism.
!!
Lucas’s consideration was clearly appropriate.
“Lucas, I know what to do. I’ll redraft the appointment letters in a bit!” Flynn said seriously after understanding this.
“Okay.” Lucas nodded. “Have all the relevant procedures for thend we bought yesterday beenpleted?”
Flynn said, “Yes, all the procedures have beenpleted, and we have also gone to thend administration bureau for the property transfer procedures. The plot ofnd already belongs to the Stardust Corporation.
“I n 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!”
Flynn was extremely excited at the thought of the construction n of Stardust City.
He suddenly said, “Lucas, here’s 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. I’m nning to visit her this afternoon.
“If 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!”
Since Flynn was singing praises of the professor, Lucas reckoned that thetter might be an unparalleled talent.
Lucas nodded. “It will be best if we can get your professor’s help. I’m free this afternoon, so let’s go meet the professor.”
Hearing this, Flynn was naturally happy. “Alright. 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 toe true!”
Lucas asked Flynn about the professor’s 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 neatlybed silver hair. There were wrinkles on her face, and her sses made her lookposed and dignified.
“Professor Crawford! I’m Flynn Davis, a former student of yours!” Flynn stepped forward and greeted respectfully.
“Yeah, I still remember you.” Gemma nodded slightly without much expression, remaining veryposed.
Flynn introduced, “Professor Crawford, this is the chairman of the Stardust Corporation and my current boss, Lucas Gray.”
Lucas stepped forward and politely greeted her. “Hello, it’s a pleasure to meet you.”
Gemma merely nodded at Lucas in greeting. But then she frowned and asked Flynn with displeasure, “Why did you bring someone here to see me?”
Flynn hurriedly said, “Professor Crawford, listen to me. I remember that you always had a dream of designing a city of your own, right?”
After Gemma heard this, there was some obvious nostalgia on her aged face. She sighed and said, “It’s indeed my lifelong dream, but I don’t think I can ever fulfill it.”
“No, Professor Crawford, you still have a chance. It’s right in front of you now!” Flynn smiled and looked at Lucas next to him. “Lucas and I have a vision to design a city within a citypletely of our own, with fully functional buildings designed and developed by ourselves. Lucas has already approved the n. Professor Crawford, are you interested in participating in the design and construction of Stardust City?”
“Are you serious?” A surge of excitement appeared on Gemma’s face. She grabbed Flynn’s arm, her eyes glistening. “Are you really nning to build a city?”
Flynn nodded excitedly. “Yes, we are! Just yesterday afternoon, we bought arge plot of vacantnd over 120 acres in the eastern suburbs of DC. We intend to build our first Stardust City there!”
“Furthermore, we’re not only going to build one Stardust City. We’re building one in more than twenty major cities in the US!
“Now, we’re just waiting for the design to be finalized, and then we can begin construction!
“Professor Crawford, we are here today to invite you to design the blueprint for Stardust City!”
The more Gemma listened, the more excited she became, and even her wrinkled face lit up with joy. “Okay, okay! Let’s go to the eastern suburbs to survey thend right now!”
Gemma was extremely excited, and she wished she could drag Flynn and Lucas to the plot ofnd immediately.
“Uh, please wait, Professor. It’s almost lunchtime now. Let’s go after we eat!” Flynn said helplessly.
Gemma waved her hands and said firmly, “No, we don’t have time for that. Let’s go now! We can just buy some food on the way! Let’s go quickly!”
