After closing several existing models and modification workshops, the company already had some overcapacity, as it was only producing the "Knight" off-road vehicle. Now, all of this excess production capacity has been mobilized to build an automated automotive production line.

The production line is not something that can be built overnight. Even with Chen Mo's technical and financial support, it would still take at least a month to build the entire production line.

In other words, "Knight" can only be mass-produced after Chen Mo returns from the next world.

However, Chen Mo didn't just wait idly for the rest of the time. In addition to building the automated car production line, Chen Mo also gave Michael another order: to expand the company.

The S.H.I.E.L.D. Auto Company is located in the northwestern suburbs of Los Angeles, roughly between downtown Los Angeles and Chen Mo's estate.

The coastline is just one kilometer to the west, and Highway 1 passes in front of the company, connected by a road.

The other three directions around the company are all plains and hills, stretching eastward for several kilometers before reaching the foot of a mountain range.

Within a radius of several dozen kilometers, apart from Highway 1 where vehicles occasionally pass by, it is practically deserted, with only this solitary factory situated on a plain between mountains and sea.

As the company grows, especially after the construction of automated production lines began, the original factory buildings became insufficient. Some factory buildings were already crammed with two workshops, making them feel crowded. As the company continues to grow, the original space will simply not be enough.

With a stroke of his pen, Chen Mo instructed Michael to purchase a large tract of land surrounding the company and extending to the foot of the mountain to the east. Although such a large area would not be needed initially, it could be prepared in advance, and the factory buildings could be built ahead of time to avoid the situation where there were no factory buildings when needed.

In any case, the company currently has plenty of funds and is fully capable of supporting the construction of a large industrial park.

Chen Mo plans to go all out in one step and build an industrial park of his own, where he can put all his other products and other companies together.

The automobile industry was just the first step in Chen Mo's real-world development. Now he can say that he has gained a firm foothold. Next, while continuing to develop the automobile industry and explore a larger market, Chen Mo is also preparing to venture into other industries!

Chen Mo handed over the task of buying land and expanding the company to the company's general manager, Michael, and then became a hands-off manager, driving his "Knight" away from the company and heading towards downtown Los Angeles.

Since buying the estate and the company, Chen Mo has basically lived a life confined to his home and workplace, and hasn't returned to Los Angeles in a while. This trip was naturally for business, because...

Su Wan is here!

Los Angeles Los Angeles International Airport, is the international arrivals terminal.

As a flight landed, groups of passengers emerged from the passageway. Su Wan, dressed in a white business suit, with her long hair flowing over her shoulders and a graceful figure, walked out of the passageway with the flow of people.

Directly in front of the passageway, many people were standing behind the barrier, craning their necks to look around, some holding up signs with their names on them.

Su Wan's gaze swept over the crowd of people waiting to pick up passengers. Before she could even carefully read what was written on each of the signs, her eyes were drawn to a tall, very familiar figure.

Su Wan's heart suddenly started beating uncontrollably fast!

After being rescued by the rescue team, she quit her job and returned to her single apartment. She stayed at home every day listening to music and reading books to calm the mental stress and excitement brought about by the near-death experience of the plane crash and the subsequent thrilling and arduous survival experience on the deserted island, and slowly recovered from the dual fatigue of Mind Stone and body.

That day, she was watching a survival reality show on a desert island featuring two young girls, Zhang Xin and Xu Qing, when a notification popped up on her computer screen that she had received a new email.

She clearly remembered that she had turned off her emails a long time ago to avoid being disturbed, so when did they turn on by themselves again?

Since she saw it, Su Wan casually clicked on it and took a look. She originally thought it was another TV station inviting her to be interviewed or appear on a program, but she didn't expect it to be an offer from the president's assistant of a car manufacturing company in the United States.

She was absolutely certain that she had not submitted any resumes, so how did this company find her and even offer her the position of president's assistant?

What's even stranger is that the company claims to be from the United States, but the entire email is written in Chinese without a single word of English, making it seem like a prank!

Despite some doubts, Su Wan still read the entire email carefully. This has always been her attitude; she wouldn't draw conclusions easily before she was certain.

When she saw the last sentence of the email, Su Wan was stunned for a moment, and then a surge of joy welled up in her heart. At the same time, she couldn't help but feel secretly glad that she hadn't hastily closed the email and treated it as a prank.

If we are destined to meet, we will meet again!

This is a very common phrase, often seen in period dramas, but Su Wan was familiar with it because the mysterious Black Man on the deserted island had said it to her before leaving.

Before that, she had expressed her desire to follow him.

Now, in a job offer for a CEO's assistant from the United States, there was a strangely redundant sentence at the end, which made Su Wan make a bold guess!

Considering that the mysterious man had said his friend would come to pick him up, and that after they were rescued, they learned from the rescuers that the deserted island where their plane crashed and where they had lived for more than two months was not too far from the United States, it is very likely that his friend or even he himself was from the United States!

Finally, Su Wan also discovered that the signature at the very bottom of the email was Black Chen, Black, BLACK!

Is this just a coincidence?

But Su Wan's rationality told her that this could not possibly be a coincidence!

Thinking back to when she told Chen Mo that she wanted to go with him, Chen Mo did not refuse directly, but told them to go back to China first, and that they would meet again if they were destined to!

Go back to China first!

Only now did Su Wan truly understand the hidden meaning in Chen Mo's words. It turned out that he wanted them to return to China first, and then he would use normal channels to have her come over and serve him!

If these were just her speculations and she couldn't be absolutely certain that the person who sent the email was Chen Mo, then what she found after carefully searching online based on the S.H.I.E.L.D. Auto Company mentioned in the email completely confirmed her guess!
