America: A Prodigy of Stereotypes

“The children are hungry, we should go have lunch,” George Stacy said with a smile.

“We’ve had a great chat, let’s go now,” Walter White said.

Several families formed a makeshift convoy and drove together to Chinatown for lunch.

After lunch, Li Qun and the other young people stayed behind, letting the parents go home on their own.

"Peter, please don't mind, my dad is sick."

With her parents gone, Stephanie spoke without restraint.

“I don’t care. I just want to tell you that I wasn’t who I am now,” Peter said to Stephanie.

“Could you share it again? Neither Gwen nor I heard it,” Li Qun said with a smile.

"No, please give me some face," Peter pleaded.

The group chatted and strolled leisurely as they walked to the Queens Public Library.

“What should we name our company?” Peter asked.

"Naming it? That requires serious thought," Li Qun said.

“How about calling it Water Technologies?” Gwen suggested.

"What technology?" Li Qun asked Gwen.

"How about Parker Technology?" Gwen came up with another idea.

“Why not call it Liqun Technology?” Peter asked Gwen.

"Does the company name have to include 'technology'?" Stephanie asked curiously.

"This is more in line with the characteristics of the times."

“You see, Stark Industries, Osborn Industries, those big companies founded by the previous generation all liked to add the word ‘industry,’ while our generation prefers ‘technology,’” Gwen explained.

"How about we go for a retro look and call it Parker Industries?" Li Qun suggested.

“That sounds very ambitious,” Gwen said.

“How is Stacy Industries?” Peter asked.

“It doesn’t sound good.” Gwen shook her head.

“What’s wrong with it?” Peter asked.

"Parker!"

Stacy!

"Liqun!"

“Peter, can you hear the difference?” Liqun asked Peter.

What's the difference?

“The difference in tone,” Li Qun said.

Of the three names, "Parker" sounds the most powerful, like "Stark!!"

“That’s right.” Gwen nodded to Peter.

“That’s settled then. The company will be called Parker Industries,” Gwen said.

“I have no objection,” Li Qun said.

“I have a problem with that,” Peter shouted.

"Then let's vote, the minority shall obey the majority."

“Liqun and I both vote in favor, Peter, you vote against,” Gwen said.

“Wait, what about Stephanie’s vote?” Peter looked at Stephanie.

“I was forced to join. My original plan was to run a food truck this summer and continue selling steamed buns on the street,” Stephanie explained to Peter, smiling at Li Qun.

“Fine, Parker Industries it is,” Peter agreed.

“I always feel like you guys are pushing me to do all the work while you slack off in the back,” Peter said.

“With great power comes great responsibility,” Li Qun said to Peter.

“That’s not how you interpret it,” Peter said helplessly.

“Look, the library,” Li Qun changed the subject.

The four of them went into the Queens Public Library to start looking up information about what they needed to prepare if they wanted to open a company in New York.

The library has publicly available information explaining that the four of them spent an entire afternoon studying it, and their heads were spinning from the effort.

Company registration has low barriers to entry; anyone over 18 years of age with full civil capacity is eligible. However, completing the entire registration process takes about one to three months, and it's best to have someone knowledgeable help you to ensure a legal and compliant registration.

"The company hasn't even started yet, and we already need to spend money to consult with people," Gwen said, dissatisfied.

“There’s no other way. Most industries need to operate with a license, and some special industries require special permits. We have to abide by the law,” Li Qun said.

“It’s a good thing that money can solve everything,” Stephanie said.

“Peter, why aren’t you saying anything?” Gwen looked at Peter.

“I’m thinking, should we ask our family for help?” Peter asked.

“If we ask our family for help, the problem will be solved immediately. Let’s try it ourselves first,” Gwen said.

“I’ve remembered something,” Li Qun said.

“What is it?” Gwen asked.

“A business card with a lawyer’s contact information on it,” Li Qun said.

“I remember him, he was a blind lawyer, it happened last year,” Peter said.

“A blind lawyer doesn’t seem very reliable,” Gwen said skeptically.

“No, think about it carefully. To become a lawyer while being blind, his professional abilities must be outstanding,” Li Qun said.

Chapter 322 Super Soldier

"I'd better call Saul!"

"For a while, I would watch his TV commercials with great interest."

"But my dad hates this TV commercial."

“Every time he saw a Saul TV commercial, he would grab the remote and change the channel.”

Stephanie was chatting with Peter, Lillian, and Gwen about their past lives, including a very famous lawyer named Saul Goodman in Albuquerque.

“It sounds like a ruthless lawyer who will do anything for money,” Peter said.

“That’s right,” Stephanie said with a smile.

"I'm a little nervous, what should I do?" Li Qun turned around.

The four of them stood at the door of Matt Murdoch's law firm. Li Qun reached out and pressed the doorbell, but no one opened the door for them.

“Let’s go back! We might be at the wrong time; Attorney Matt is in court defending someone,” Peter said.

"There's another phone number on the door, try calling it."

“Peter, come here,” Gwen said.

"me?"

Peter took out his phone and dialed a number, patiently waiting for the other party to answer, only to receive a voicemail message saying he could leave a message.

“A voicemail…” Peter pointed to the phone.

"Hello, my name is Peter Parker. I have a legal question I'd like to ask. Please call me back to discuss the details."

"Is this okay?" Peter looked at the three people around him.

"almost."

“That’s settled then.” Peter hung up the phone.

After hanging up the phone, Peter breathed a sigh of relief; he also seemed quite nervous.

“We’re just asking about things to be aware of when starting a company; we’re not committing a crime,” Gwen told Peter.

“But this is my first time,” Peter said.

“Who isn’t a first-timer?” Gwen retorted.

“Should we wait here for a while? Maybe they’ll be back soon,” Li Qun said.

"Let's go back and wait for the call. We'll arrange a time before you come," Stephanie said.

“Go back and wait,” Peter said.

“Next, let’s look for an affordable and comfortable apartment,” Li Qun suggested.

"Aren't we waiting for Mary Jane to return to New York?" Gwen asked.

“It’s not like we can find a suitable apartment right away,” Li Qun said.

“It’s okay for four people to share an apartment, but it would be a bit crowded for six,” Stephanie said.

“Where are the six people?” Gwen asked Stephanie with a smile.

“Shouldn’t we also include Harry?” Stephanie asked.

“Harry’s family has a penthouse in the city center, so he doesn’t need to share with us. He would actually like someone to keep him company,” Gwen said.

“I suddenly understand why my dad hates Osborne. Downtown penthouse, he’s really rich.” Stephanie raised an eyebrow.

"I'm going to buy a newspaper."

Peter bought a copy of every newspaper and magazine in New York City at the newsstand.

In 2002, the most common way to find jobs or rental information was through newspapers; looking at small advertisements on the street was the least reliable method.

The four people sat down in the coffee shop, each ordered a coffee, and each held a newspaper. They read the rental information published in the newspaper, marked the ones they thought were suitable, and finally put the information together.

"Do you need free entrepreneurship training and business plan coaching?" Stephanie asked.
