As soon as Xiao Ran and the others got out of the car, Liangzi and others came to greet them.
As they came closer, everyone greeted each other and started chatting.
"Xiao Ran, our class of Chinese students studying at UCLA are going to take a group photo together later. Will you participate?"
"After the graduation ceremony, there will be a graduation party for Chinese students. We hope you can come."
Hearing this, Xiao Ran did not respond immediately.
He thought for a moment, then smiled and said:
"I'm going to see my tutor soon and talk to the school about something. If I can spare the time, I will take part in a group photo."
"As for the graduation party after the ceremony, I'm afraid I can't attend, and you'd better not attend either."
"Now is a special period. Safety comes first. It is better to reduce gatherings as much as possible. There will be many opportunities for gatherings in the future, so there is no need to rush at this moment."
"If the school hadn't rushed it, I wouldn't have wanted to attend today's graduation ceremony."
Ryoko and the others were stunned for a moment, then nodded.
"That's right. If you attend a graduation party, you will inevitably come into close contact with many people. It is indeed too dangerous."
"I have decided not to attend this graduation party. Although it is a bit regretful, it is better than being recruited."
Li Yu nodded and said.
After chatting for a few words, Xiao Ran suddenly changed the subject.
"Liangzi, Li Yu, your work visa has been issued."
"I'll ask David to send someone to deliver it to you later. You don't have to worry about your visa expiration anymore..."
Before he finished speaking, these guys started cheering.
"Great! Now I can feel at ease."
While cheering and celebrating, Liangzi and the others were grateful to Xiao Ran.
They are all employees of Feilong Zaitian Exploration Company. Although they have not started working yet, they have joined the company and have started to receive wages.
Now that Xiao Ran has helped solve the work visa problem, they are naturally grateful.
Not only them, but their respective families as well.
At this time, all Chinese students studying abroad are in the same dangerous situation.
Especially the international students graduating this year are in a dilemma and are in a very difficult situation.
They want to return to their country, but there are no flights because of the suspension of flights. Even sky-high air tickets to several countries are difficult to get.
If you want to stay and work in the country where you study abroad, it is very difficult to find a job, and you have to take huge risks.
Many of them are faced with the dilemma of losing their jobs upon graduation or even having their visas expired.
The families of these international students are all in China, and they are basically unable to do anything. They are all as anxious as ants on a hot pot, and they can't sleep all night long.
The same goes for Liangzi and his family. Fortunately, Xiao Ran came forward to help them solve this problem.
After receiving the news, the families of these guys burst into tears of joy.
After chatting for a few more words, Xiao Ran said goodbye and left, taking Elaine and the others into the School of Economics building.
Just like everywhere else in the school, wherever the three of them go, they attract countless attention.
As soon as they entered the building, everyone in the lobby on the first floor immediately turned their heads and looked over.
Some guys who knew Xiao Ran came over to say hello.
"Good morning Sean"
"I heard that you will speak at today's graduation ceremony as an outstanding graduate representative. Congratulations."
Xiao Ran looked at the guy who greeted him, smiled and said a few polite words.
"Good morning, Derek"
"This is all the school's arrangement, I can only accept it."
In addition to congratulating him on winning the title of Outstanding Graduate, some people also curiously asked about the Las Vegas riots.
Xiao Ran reasoned that he left earlier and didn't know the details of the riot.
While talking, they had arrived at the door of Stephen's office.
Before entering the office, Xiao Ran called Anthony, who was following a few meters away, and whispered to this guy:
"It seems that my speech at the graduation ceremony is already known to everyone, which is not a good thing."
"Communicate with UCLA's security department and take someone to the football field where the graduation ceremony is held to check, just in case."
"Okay, Sean, leave these things to us."
Anthony nodded in response, then turned and left.
Xiao Ran knocked on the office door in front of him and walked in with Elaine and the others.
In addition to Stephen, Phillip and others were also in the office.
After entering, Xiao Ran said hello to these guys one by one, and then took Elaine and the others to sit down on the sofa.
As soon as he sat down, Phillip asked curiously:
"Sean, I heard that you sold that precious land deed to a Chinese oil company for a billion dollars."
"The price is really amazing, and the transaction partner you chose is also a bit unexpected."
Xiao Ran looked at this guy and then explained a few words.
"That's right, I sold that land deed. It did cost one billion dollars."
“As for why we chose PetroChina, it’s because they offered the highest price.”
"Based on the principle of maximizing interests and for the benefit of the rest of the team, I can only choose PetroChina."
"In fact, there are also other companies and individuals seeking to purchase the land title, but their bids are relatively low."
Phillip and others nodded slightly and did not raise any objections.
Stephen looked at Xiao Ran deeply, but didn't say anything.
After chatting for a while, another professor asked curiously:
"Sean, how did I hear that the number of people who died in the Las Vegas riots that night was much more than what the media reported?"
"Some people say that many drug addicts and bad gamblers wandering the streets have disappeared and are probably dead!"
"Las Vegas was sealed off afterwards, and people from outside are still not allowed in. It's difficult for the outside world to understand the real situation."
"You were an eyewitness to the riot, so you must know more. Can you tell us about it?"
Xiao Ran shook his head.
"Although I was a witness to the riot, as soon as the riot started, we left in a helicopter from the air."
"It was already late at night, and the sky was very dark. You couldn't see anything at all from this high place."
"I don't know much more than you do about that riot."
Although Xiao Ran knew a lot about the riot and knew that many people died in the riot, he had to remain silent at this time.
The reason is simple. All professional treasure hunters who experienced the riots received a warning from the FBI and had to keep it secret.
After hearing his explanation, several professors fell silent.
I guess they could guess what was going on, so they didn't continue to ask.
About half an hour later, Xiao Ran and the others left Stephen's office.
Afterwards, they went to the School of Drama and Film and sent Elaine there.
Next, Xiao Ran took Fang Yufei to meet the Chinese students, and they all took a few photos together to keep a souvenir of their study abroad career at UCLA.
All Chinese students are excited and curious about their arrival.
As soon as they arrived, they became the focus of everyone's attention.
But Xiao Ran didn't stay long. After taking a few photos with everyone, he said goodbye and left to do other things.
The more important reason is that he cannot help all Chinese students to return home or arrange jobs.
Even if he could help, he couldn't reach out rashly to help without a deep understanding.
Facing those expectant eyes, he couldn't help but feel sympathy, but mostly helpless.
It was precisely because he didn't want to face this that he said goodbye and left.
Soon, the time came to two o'clock in the afternoon.
The graduation ceremony finally begins.
Due to the special circumstances at the moment, the graduation ceremony that used to be held in the gymnasium had no choice but to be moved to an empty football field to ensure ventilation conditions.
The ventilation conditions here are very good, but the sun is shining brightly.
All graduates and professors participating in this graduation ceremony had to endure two or three hours under the scorching sun.
Like all graduates, Xiao Ran also put on his master's robe and walked into the ceremony with Yi Lian and Fang Yufei.
The difference is that he is live broadcasting at this time.
In the live broadcast room, many fans are watching the graduation ceremony.
Seeing what was going on at the graduation ceremony, the live broadcast room immediately burst into laughter.
"I'll go! Just exposed to the sun like this, still wearing a master's robe."
"Xiao Ran, after this graduation ceremony, you are still not allowed to be an adult!"
Benbenzhu AA said jokingly.
"This is the famous UCLA, and the graduation ceremony is no different from ordinary universities in China!"
Wandering in the rain continued.
After hearing these discussions, Xiao Ran smiled and whispered:
"Isn't it? This graduation ceremony is definitely a torture. I hope you don't get fucked in the sun!"
While he was talking, another cell phone suddenly rang.
The call was from Anthony.
Xiao Ran glanced at Laixian, then slid open the screen and answered the phone.
The next moment, Anthony's voice came over.
"Sean, we found two New Mexico professional treasure hunters near the football field."
"They have both been to Las Vegas and we have our eyes on these two guys."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Ran's eyes immediately flashed with a sharp light.
