1. A lubricant composition comprising at least one dicyclic liquid crystal compound represented by the following formula (1), at least one tricyclic liquid crystal compound represented by the following formula (2), and halogen ions, wherein the content of the halogen ions in the lubricant composition is 4.43 to 900 ppm:
formula (1):
wherein R1 and R2 are the same or different, and are a group: —OCH2CH2CH(R′)CH2CH2OR (wherein R is linear or branched CnH2n+1 wherein the relationship: 1≤n≤20 is satisfied, and R′ is methyl or ethyl),
formula (2):
wherein R11 and R21 are the same or different, and are a group: —OR or a group: —OCH2CH2CH(R′)CH2CH2OR (wherein R is linear or branched CnH2n+1 wherein the relationship: 1≤n≤20 is satisfied, and R′ is methyl or ethyl), and
R12, R13, R22, and R23 are the same or different, and are hydrogen, a group: —OR, or a group: —OCH2CH2CH(R′)CH2CH2OR (wherein R is linear or branched CnH2n+1 wherein the relationship: 1≤n≤20 is satisfied, and R′ is methyl or ethyl),
