The knight in the big world of American TV series

Chapter 704 Gaming (please collect, recommend, ask for a monthly pass) 4300 words ask for a monthly pass! ! !

Although he knew that Tony was talking nonsense, no one could refute it, because Tony did have a big hole in his chest.In fact, after Tony was healed by Lucifer, this big hole was no longer necessary. It could be healed through surgery, but Tony didn't know what he was thinking, and still left the big hole, and concealed that he didn't know what to do. The fact that the ark reactor in the chest is needed to renew its life.Anyway, with such a large ark reactor on the chest, it is impossible to perform an X-ray scan on the chest.

So from the outside world's point of view, Tony's nonsense still makes sense.

On TV, Tony continued to mad at Congressman Stern, who presided over the hearing: "...I am Iron Man, and I am two in one with the armor. Selling it is tantamount to selling myself, so it should be counted as labor or selling silver. Depending on which state..."

Everyone in the audience roared with laughter.

Senator Stern looked ugly: "Listen, I'm not an expert..."

Tony interrupted decisively: "An expert in selling silver? Of course not, you are a senator!"

At this moment, Tony was really arrogant, but no surprise, Tony's arrogance caused countless applause.In America, since the rise of hippie culture, there has been an anti-authoritarian trend of thought, especially for the government.Many people even regard confrontation with the government as a symbol of courage.But now Tony's arrogance makes many people feel extremely comfortable, just like reading a Shuangwen novel.

What's more, American bureaucrats don't have many good things-this is the simple and straightforward consensus of the people at the bottom of the United States.Seeing that Congress leader Stern blushed when he was attacked by the young master, many people in front of the TV must be applauding and celebrating.Whether it is the super rich Tony Stark or the superhero Iron Man, they are all popular figures loved by the public.As for what Congressman Stern, who is that?I don't know him, just an annoying bureaucratic supporting role.

Of course, as cool as those spectators are, how unfamiliar are the big shots sitting on the bench of the hearing.

If you want to say the most depressing thing in the world, being mad by Tony in public is definitely one of them.Ordinary people are fine, anyway, women are completely crushed against Tony Qianquan, and if they are far behind, they don't care about shame, but they don't feel the embarrassment.The worst thing is the kind of big boss who thinks he is very successful, when he is attacked by the young master's vitriolic but extremely sharp words, it is like slapping his face.For example, Senator Stern's face turned a little red, like a balloon that was gradually inflating.The scene is extremely comfortable.

In fact, today is probably not just a carnival for the common people.Beside Tony, a few people in suits and military uniforms were also full of smiles, and they didn't mind showing their happy expressions.

As I said before, the Stark Group is not without supporters.The idea of ​​the Iron Armor in Congress is not the consensus of all high-level officials.Those few people who are obviously military bosses may be the people sent by the military to support Tony.Of course they will not directly stand up and say something. After all, there are still some rules that must be followed. For example, the military is not allowed to participate in politics. .

But as long as they sit there, it represents the attitude of some people in the military.

This kind of statement is more cryptic, but everyone who should understand understands it.In fact, to put it bluntly, the real important things in this hearing are not in front of people at all. This live broadcast is more like a show, a talk show used to stir up public opinion. Known behind the scenes.

Are superficial things in hearings useful?

Maybe, but not conclusively.Even if no one from the military comes today, Tony can still be arrogant, because in the struggle behind the scenes, the forces supporting the Stark Group are stronger than imagined, otherwise Tony would not be so arrogant.After all, Tony is not really a brainless and refreshing actor. If he acts recklessly and arrogantly without any support, he will die miserably.

In short, it can be seen from the hearing that Tony's situation is much better than imagined!
The hearing is still going on.

At this time, a heavyweight guest appeared, Justin Hammer, the president of Hammer Defense Company.Its companies have a wide range of businesses, including arms. In this regard, Hammer and the Stark Group have fierce competition.But generally speaking, the U.S. military prefers the Stark Group, but the Hammer Group also has its survival strategy, which is the price advantage. Often, for the same grade of products, the quotation of the Hammer Group is twice as low as that of the Stark Group. !
Of course, the world is always fair, you get what you pay for, and you can’t expect a half-price product to be really good.

Therefore, in the industry, Hanmer Group products are often associated with knockoffs and defective products.It's always just a small fight.

This time Stark Group's withdrawal from the arms market is a huge opportunity for Hammer Group. Unfortunately, this opportunity has a frustrating limitation, that is, a huge amount of patent fees!That's right, the Stark Group has indeed withdrawn from the arms market, but it does not mean that the Stark Group has really given up its own wealth. Scientific research is the Stark Group's greatest advantage.The Stark Group has a large number of patents with high utility rates.

These patents themselves are a huge fortune.

If the Hanmer Group wants to meet the military needs of the US military, it must develop good arms, and these cannot bypass the patents of the Stark Group. What's more, the Stark Group will not only Licensed to Hammer Group.

Other arms dealers can also obtain authorization from the Stark Group, which leads to the development of the Hammer Group not as expected.It's not that the Hammer Group has never thought of buying out the Stark Group's patents, but he is too petty. He always thinks of taking advantage of the fire, and it's no wonder that the Stark Group will take care of him.

In addition, what Justin likes most is taking legal loopholes. The products of the cottage Stark Group have no scientific research capabilities, and he likes to imitate Tony, pretending to be a technology giant, which makes Tony feel very uncomfortable with him, so every time he Every meeting will make him doubt his life.

This led to extremely tense relations between them.

This time, Justin appeared here to prove that the armor on Tony's body is a weapon, and at the same time to advertise his steel mecha project. He hopes to gain the support of the US military and Congress. Burning money is fast. If you use your own funds for research and development, it will not only put a lot of pressure on the company's funds, but also be full of uncertainties.

If the research and development is successful at its own expense, and the military does not buy it in the end... then the Hanmer Group will be at a loss...

It's different if Congress and the military pay for it.At least the risk is much less!

This is the pattern, and the Stark Group has never been petty.

In short, every move of Justin Hammer on TV makes people feel a strong copycat style. He imitates Tony's clothes, movements and even the way he speaks, telling some self-righteous jokes, showing himself All for the humor.Unfortunately, the reaction was not great.

The genuine one is just around the corner, why do people go after a counterfeit product?
Just when Hammer couldn't wait to show his ass like a bald peacock, Tony had already hacked into Justin Hammer's own video system in public, exposing the black history of Hammer Defense Company.Hammer's company was one of several attempts at the armor in the video, which was also unsuccessful (the tester's armor turned 180 degrees and injured his spine).

This kind of IQ went to find trouble with the young and old. It can only be said that Justin has a thick skin and is not afraid of being beaten.Justin lived up to expectations and exploded all of a sudden. He wanted to resist the invasion of you, but in the end there were too many technologies, so he had no choice but to resort to the ultimate move... Pull the wire.Lost face.

With the power of a big victory, Tony on TV once again slapped Justin Hammer in the face in public, and then stood up calmly amid the applause of everyone.

He stretched out two domineering scissor hands in front of countless cameras: "...I can maintain world peace alone!"

Most of the people present stood up and applauded.

The same is true, let the host of the hearing, the main pusher of the offensive against Tony, Congressman Stern collapsed, exploded on the spot, and yelled into the microphone: "Fuck q, Stark! Fuck q, You beep beep beep!"

News channels took decisive steps to silence the noise.

In fact, Luke guessed the two flower qs from his mouth shape, and the TV was full of beep beep muffled sounds.

Apparently, the farce ended with a big win for Tony.

He lost cleanly at the hearing, which turned the old energy group's offense into a joke.

But still the same sentence, the hearing is not important, what is important is the game behind the scenes.

But for now, the Stark Group should have the upper hand.Kai also didn't know about it, after all, the political games behind it were too profound, and Kai couldn't understand it either.But what's interesting is that those people actually found Kai's head.

Maybe it was all they could do, or maybe it was really helpless. They found Kai, hoping that Kai could stand up against Tony.

Kai was stunned.

He didn't understand, didn't these people know about his relationship with Tony?
You know, besides Tony, Kay was the first person to use the mecha invented by Tony, and Tony even developed the War Machine series for Kay.

But those lobbying brokers have plausible words, saying that interests are paramount, and they promise that as long as Kai can stand up, then Kai will receive unprecedented support. Director...

Then the broker was thrown out by Kai.

Not only Kay, but also the Wayne Group was lobbied.

Wayne Group is a comprehensive consortium with a very wide range of interests, including the energy industry.Even in the Scottish North Sea oil field, the Wayne Group also has a stake.Although the Wayne Group is Kai's private property, it is managed by an agent.

This kind of professional manager controls such a large wealth of the Wayne Group, it is naturally impossible to say that he has no idea.So several agents were moved.

If it's an ordinary consortium, it's really hard to talk about this kind of situation.

But don't forget that the Wayne Group itself is not ordinary.

Kingsman, who was in charge of guarding the group, was dispatched soon, and several agents were either arrested or resigned inexplicably due to various accidents.

Wayne Group is a private company and does not need to be responsible for the stock price, so it is natural to handle this kind of thing with ease.

Then, Wayne Group began to cut off from the old energy industry, quickly exiting this industry in an extremely secretive way, and injected a large amount of funds into Stark Group's new projects.

At the same time, the Stark Group has also begun to increase the shares of its energy companies!
For a time, a large amount of capital flowed in, causing the stock prices of energy companies to soar.

This could explain why Tony was so aggressive at the hearing.People who eat alone are naturally hated by everyone, but if the Stark Group is willing to share with everyone, most people are naturally willing to fall to the Stark Group.

Moreover, driven by energy companies, the originally stable stock price of Stark Group soared again.

If calculated solely based on the growth of the market value, the Stark Group not only recovered the investment in purchasing energy companies and new energy projects, but also made a huge profit!
In short, Tony is still the richest man in the world, and the gap with No.2 is still widening rapidly.

……

Tony Stark's big melon is indeed delicious, but it has nothing to do with Shengdou Xiaomin. After all, it is the fight between the gods of the big bosses. No matter whether Tony Stark wins or loses, no one gives them money, so apart from watching it for fun , everyone should do whatever they want.

The same goes for gang members, those things are too far away from everyone, they also have to eat and live.So they still have to do things, they have to do things, and the police can't be idle.

And recently Kai has also encountered a new situation.

The New York prison has been robbed!
Or to be more accurate, the New York prison was suddenly attacked, and then the prisoners rioted, causing nearly hundreds of prisoners to escape.

This incident was quite a big one. If Tony's hearing hadn't been more attractive, the New York police might not be able to take care of themselves if they were scolded. But even so, the local media in New York still couldn't lift their heads when they scolded the New York Police Department.

To be fair, the attack on a New York prison has little to do with the police department.

After all, there are two systems, and the American prison system is notoriously chaotic.After all, in the United States, prisons can be privately owned, and they can make a lot of money. According to statistics a few years ago, the total income of the industry easily reached 50 billion US dollars.The privatization of American prisons has been going on for a long time. One of the important reasons is that there are too many prisoners and the government has no money.

So in order to save money, the government developed the privatization of prisons.

Up to now, the proportion of private prisons has continued to increase.Private prisons really make money. Every time a private prison takes in a prisoner, the government has to pay the corresponding fee for the prisoner.And after lobbying, the government and the prison also signed an unreasonable contract, that is, the occupancy rate of the private prison needs to be guaranteed at 90.00%!
In other words, as long as there are vacancies in prisons, the government must fill them...

This guarantees the basic profitability of private prisons. Not only that, prisoners are also free labor, and prisons can open factories to let prisoners work to create wealth.These factories often also have tax exemptions.

But even so, private prisons are still not satisfied, so under the guise of human rights, private prisons began to charge prisoners.The more money you pay, the better the treatment.It's like a hotel. (There are really prisons like hotels, with very good facilities)
This has led to extremely chaotic management of many private prisons.The prison that was attacked this time is such a private prison.

These private prisons have nothing to do with the police at all.

But the pot still belongs to the police.

So during this time, the New York police are very busy, arresting fugitives all over the world.

And among those fugitives, there was a special prisoner.

Daniel Rand is the rich second generation who failed to regain his inheritance.
