American Comics: The Matrix

Chapter 52 Unitrix (Seeking follow-up reading)

Early the next morning.

Bant changed his clothes and took a bus to Manhattan.

"Xiaoban, this way!"

As soon as he got off the car, he saw Felicia in a white dress waving at him not far away.

She had a slim figure and her blond hair was blown to one side by the wind.

"You came so early?"

Bant looked at her in surprise. If you look closely, you can see the dark circles under Felicia's light makeup.

Felicia stuck out her tongue and smiled without saying anything.

Of course she has her own little thoughts.

Go out early and wait for Bant to finish his work, so they will have time to do other things.

"But why do you suddenly want to buy scientific equipment?"

Felicia didn't understand any of this, but in order to help Bent, after she returned home yesterday, she went to see Otto Gunther Octavius, a scientist funded by the Hardy Foundation.

That is the famous Doctor Octopus in the future.

The Doctor Octopus of this universe is currently doing research funded by the Hardy Foundation.

Otto grew up in poverty, so he is better than Connors at saving money.

When Felicia found him, Otto generously told her several ways to buy good things and the lowest price range of some instruments.

She studied for a long time, almost all night.

"In fact, the most cost-effective way is to purchase it directly from Osborne." Felicia said.

"This monster attack dealt a heavy blow to Osborn, and its stock price plummeted. In order to fill the gap, I believe Osborn will definitely sell off their remaining experimental equipment at a low price."

Osborne's stock price has plummeted, which should have been a good time to buy at the bottom, but no one is doing that now.

Because no one thinks that the Osborne Group can make a comeback.

"Not a bad idea."

Ben Te nodded.

Bant didn't care about Norman.

Because even if he didn't buy it, Osborne's shareholders would definitely sell the equipment to others in order to recover their losses. Instead of doing that, it would be better for him to get a bargain.

What's more, once Osborne sells off even the equipment in his home, the market value will be further reduced, which will actually reduce the difficulty for Norman to buy back Osborne.

Therefore, Bant not only has to buy it, but also has to buy it in a big way!

Everyone who holds Osborne stock must know that this once-large company has begun selling off its assets and is only one step away from bankruptcy.

fall!
Continue to fall!
So, Bant and Felicia found a shareholder of the Osborne Group.

The other party naturally knew the daughter of the Hardy Foundation, and subconsciously thought that Felicia was acquiring Osborn on behalf of the Hardy Foundation.

Naturally, he welcomed this very much.

You know, Osborne couldn't sell his stocks these days. Seeing his assets shrinking continuously, he became anxious.

"Don't worry, Mr. Storm, we are not here to buy shares of the Osborne Group."

Bant was very surprised by Felicia's appearance at this moment. Facing Mendel Storm, who had already made a fortune for many years, she did not seem timid, but rather very imposing.

Thanks to her father's teachings, Felicia is not a delicate person. In fact, she is very strong inside.

And she knew who was the stronger party now.

"We just want to buy some equipment from the Osborne Group."

Hearing this, Storm was slightly disappointed.

But then he thought that if he could sell those expensive scientific equipment, he could make some money back.

In fact, Mendel Storm was once a famous doctor.

He and Norman founded the Osborn Group together, but now, he has long forgotten his original intention.

"How much can you offer?" Storm asked quickly.

"Look at you, you're anxious again." Bant said with a smile.

Storm didn't look very happy.

Can he not be in a hurry?

He wants to make progress so much!
No, I just want to get the money!
Given Osborne's current situation, every second that passes is an inestimable loss to him.

And this is also where Bant and Felicia can control him.

By the time they left, several hours had passed.

"Thank you, Felicia."

Bant thanked.

With Felicia's help, he bought many instruments at prices several levels below the market price.

There were also some instruments that were affected by the battle and were damaged, and he did not let them go. Storm basically gave them to him as gifts.

After all, in Mendel Storm's opinion, those machines were already a pile of junk. Who would have thought that Bant had the ability to repair them all? "Nothing."

Felicia shook her head. She glanced at the sky. It was still afternoon and the weather was very hot.

"But are you really going to start a business?" she asked.

“Do you have enough funds?”

Felicia was of course very aware of Bant's family situation. They were not wealthy, and could even be said to be a little poor.

But she did not doubt Bant's ability, she was just a little worried.

Even if the price is pushed down even further, those instruments together would still cost several hundred million dollars.

"Don't worry, I actually teamed up with Harry Osborn."

"Harry Osborn?"

Felicia didn't expect that Bant actually knew the young master of the Osborn family.

"Use Osborne's money to buy Osborne's instruments..."

She looked weird, but she didn't think much about it. Instead, she felt a little jealous.

"Actually, you don't need to look for Harry Osborn, I can help you!"

Felicia said seriously.

She looked at Bant and pouted, her cheeks puffing out like a little frog.

"Although I can't afford a lot of money, I can persuade my mother to support you."

Hearing this, Bant quickly refused: "Thank you, Felicia, but not for now."

He originally didn't want Felicia's mother to interfere with Primus, so he turned to Harry. Now it is even more impossible to let the Hardy Foundation interfere.

But Felicia's sincerity still touched him a little.

He reached out and touched Felicia's head. Felicia's hair was very soft, making him feel like he was stroking a rag doll with long hair.

"ah!"

Felicia suddenly shuddered, shrank slightly, and blushed.

But she did not dodge, instead she blushed and said:

"I helped you so much today, how are you going to thank me?"

"How would you like to thank me?"

Felicia stretched out her finger, put it to her mouth, thought for a moment, and then said, "Please treat me to ice cream."

"that's it?"

Bant asked in surprise.

You know, today Felicia helped him save at least tens of millions of dollars. At the beginning, Storm wanted to sell those instruments at a high price.

"That's all for now."

Felicia jumped away from his palm like a lively cat. She had already seen a stand selling ice cream:
"Hurry over here!"

A few minutes later, the two were walking side by side on the street, ice cream in their hands.

"What's your flavor?"

Felicia jumped into the sunshine, her flowing blonde hair making her look like an elf.

lovely!

"vanilla."

"I'm strawberry," Felicia paused, then bit her lip and looked longingly at the ice cream in Bant's hand that he had already taken a bite of.

“I want to try the vanilla flavor too…”
-
night.

Bant sent Felicia back home.

She has very strict parents and is rarely allowed to come home late.

After seeing Felicia off, Bant did not go home, but came to his laboratory.

In the afternoon, he had asked Storm to send over some of the equipment, especially a supercomputer.

At this moment, in the simple laboratory, an advanced computer was placed in front of Bant, looking out of place.

This thing also existed in Connors' original laboratory. He and Peter used it to simulate the experimental data model.

The first thing Bant had to do was to create an artificial intelligence.

He doesn't need to be as powerful as Jarvis or Ultron, he just needs to be able to assist him in doing some things.

He became a little warrior, and then input the modified underlying code of Jarvis into it...

After a while, the program began to respond.

"Hello, Mr. Parker."

A clear female voice sounded in the laboratory.

"Hello, Eunice."
