"Is this Lin Wei Min, Lin Xue's father?"
Lu Yang thought to himself for a few minutes before picking up his phone and dialing Lin Xue.
"Lu Yang, what made you call me?"
Lin Xue was a little excited to receive Lu Yang's call.
"How is your company doing now?"
Lu Yang asked tentatively.
"Alas, the capital chain is broken, and we need a large sum of capital now. My dad is worried about this. Sorry, Lu Yang, I originally wanted to help you arrange a job, but I might not be able to help now!"
Lin Xue said helplessly. She thought Lu Yang was asking her for a job and told him the actual situation.
"It's okay, is it Black Panther New Energy Electric Vehicle Company?"
Lu Yang continued to ask.
"Yes, that's it! The new energy electric vehicle market is saturated this year, and coupled with no breakthroughs in the durability of new energy batteries, it has led to high costs and low profits for new energy electric vehicles, with accumulated inventory and inability to continue operations!"
Lin Xue continued to explain.
"Oh, I see. If you need any help, just say the word!"
Lu Yang said with a slight smile.
"Okay, I understand, thank you, Lu Yang!"
Lin Xue gave a wry smile. Her family's company didn't need a few hundred yuan, but hundreds of millions. Lu Yang was just a live-in son-in-law, considered a joke, how could he help her?
But out of consideration for Lu Yang's feelings, Lin Xue didn't expose him.
After hanging up the phone, Lu Yang looked at another company, and the name of its legal representative deeply stung Lu Yang's heart, because that name was the same as Lu Yang's deceased father—Lu Tian Feng.
This company was actually researching controlled nuclear fusion.
(Controlled nuclear fusion is commonly known as "artificial sun," which can provide humans with clean, safe, and inexhaustible energy, and is humanity's ultimate hope for solving the energy problem. Nuclear fusion energy has advantages such as high efficiency and low carbon emissions.)
This technology could not only be used to provide energy needed by humans but also in weapons. Once successfully developed, the most advanced weapons would appear on Earth, with unimaginable destructive power.
Lu Yang did not expect that research that was only conducted in national secret laboratories would be carried out in the private sector, and the name of the person in charge was exactly the same as his father's name, which was simply too bizarre.
In Lu Yang's memory, his parents always went out early and returned late, sometimes not being home for several days. He never knew what they were doing until his parents died in a car accident when he was eight years old.
After so many years, seeing this name again, Lu Yang's heart felt as if a nerve had been twitched, but he was not sure if this was his father's name. He planned to have Lin Guo Xiong investigate clearly before taking further action.
Seeing that it was still early, Lu Yang went directly to the Black Panther New Energy Electric Vehicle Company to conduct an on-site inspection. If it was indeed worth investing in, Lu Yang would definitely help his old classmate.
Black Panther New Energy Electric Vehicle Company was located in the Automobile Trading City in the suburbs of Jiangbei City. The entire Automobile Trading City covered an area of thousands of mu, with various automobile companies having factories here.
Lu Yang rode his electric bike to the Automobile Trading City and found the Black Panther New Energy Electric Vehicle Company. He parked his electric bike outside and walked in leisurely.
"Hey, scrap collector, we don't have anything here, go somewhere else!"
A woman of Lin Xue's age walked up and shouted at Lu Yang.
"Scrap collector?"
Lu Yang was speechless. Was he mistaken for a beggar or a scrap collector? Was Lu Yang really that unlucky?
"I'm not collecting scrap, I'm buying a car!"
Lu Yang said directly to the woman.
"You're buying a car? Hahaha, do you know what kind of car we sell here? We sell Black Panther new energy electric vehicles, costing over five hundred thousand yuan each. Can you afford it?"
Upon hearing Lu Yang's words, the woman immediately shouted disdainfully.
"Five hundred thousand?"
Lu Yang was also taken aback by the price. In his memory, a new energy electric vehicle only cost over a hundred thousand yuan, why was it starting at over five hundred thousand here?
"I can see you're a poor bum who can't afford it. Turn left and go out, there are cheaper ones sold there, elderly mobility scooters, two or three thousand yuan. You should go there!"
The woman snorted and crossed her arms.
"What is your attitude? Do you think I can't afford it?"
"Which is the most expensive car you have here? I'll buy it!"
Lu Yang sneered. A car worth hundreds of thousands was nothing to him. He was just here to inspect projects. Since this woman looked down on him so much, he would slap her in the face with money.
"The most expensive car? Are you sure you want to buy it?"
"This car is our most expensive car, priced at nine hundred and twenty thousand. Can you afford it? Look at what you're wearing. You're wearing cheap clothes, costing less than two hundred yuan in total. What are you going to use to buy it? Your face?"
The woman mocked disdainfully.
"Xiao Xiao, who are you talking to?"
At this moment, a mature and charming woman walked out. Although she was over forty years old, her figure was still perfect, and she looked like a mature woman in a qipao.
"Mom, a scrap collector actually wants to buy our most expensive car. I really don't know what this man is thinking, is his head full of excrement?"
The woman called Xiao Xiao said disdainfully.
"Throw him out, don't affect our business!"
The middle-aged woman glanced at Lu Yang and waved her hand impatiently.
"Did you hear that? My mom told you to get out!"
The woman shouted at Lu Yang again.
"I'm looking for Lin Xue!"
Lu Yang was speechless by this bizarre mother-daughter pair and said coldly.
"Damn, so you're looking for that bitch Lin Xue. You even said you were buying a car. Lin Xue isn't here, so get lost!"
Upon hearing Lin Xue's name, the woman's expression instantly changed, and her attitude towards Lu Yang became even worse.
Lu Yang had no choice but to take out his phone and call Lin Xue. However, before he could even dial, he saw a woman walking towards them quickly, followed by a man in a suit holding a large bouquet of roses.
"Lin Xue? Zhang Kun Hao?"
Lu Yang recognized the woman in front as Lin Xue and the man behind her as Zhang Kun Hao, the class monitor from their university.
"Lin Xue, I truly like you. Please agree to be my girlfriend!"
Zhang Kun Hao said as he walked.
After Zhang Kun Hao was rejected by Song Nuan, he set his sights on Lin Xue and pestered her relentlessly. This time, he even came directly to Lin Xue's workplace.
"Zhang Kun Hao, I've already made it very clear. We are not of the same aspirations and cannot be together!"
Lin Xue said coldly.
