Marvel Administrative Officer

Chapter 42 Unexpected Help

Jack ultimately declined Snyder's invitation to talk.

He is the host of the reception, not a deserter who leaves after hearing a few words of ridicule from others.

So Snyder left, he had a lot of things to do, just now he just had a sudden outburst of sympathy, but soon he became that indifferent rich politician.

After a while of silence, the reception became lively again.Hammer's mess is just one of the episodes. Americans love drinking parties, and they can always find what they want in it.

Jack was really not angry. At that moment, he really seemed to be looking at a clown. Just like he often reminded himself, politicians are never shameless, and they don't have the mentality of sacrificing themselves. They can't do politics well.

But now he doesn't have many options left.

Before the X-Men attack the Akali Lake base, Jack must get on line with the military.

Hammer rejected him, although Hammer is an idiot, but Hammer is indeed one of the white gloves of the Pentagon, and perhaps the most important pair of gloves, otherwise he would have disappeared under the suppression of Stark Industries .

As for other arms companies, they are simply unable to digest the technology Jack has mastered.

Therefore, Jack currently only has one option left for Stark Industries.

The thought of taking on either Opadry or Tony gave Jack a headache.

Cheerful music fluttered in the reception hall, and Richard was late, which was not his big name, but the city hall was a bit too busy.

The position of chief of staff is equivalent to the chief steward of the city hall. He must have an understanding of everything and make simple arrangements, which ordinary people cannot do.

As the only lonely existence in the lively hall, Richard found Jack easily.

He walked up to Jack lightly, gracefully took the cocktail from the waiter's tray, and asked with a smile,

"It seems like something just happened."

It wasn't until Richard made a sound that Jack, who was in deep thought, found Richard. He smiled easily,

"I was just taunted by Hammer, they were watching the joke, maybe I will be a joke in New York."

Richard blinked, still looking brisk,

"Is that Hammer the Clown? Do you think people will laugh at you for being a Clown?"

Jack didn't speak, it was a difficult question to answer.

"Okay, Jack, walk out of my office with the courage and arrogance you have, don't be a bitch!"

"Are you consoling me?" Jack laughed, but he wasn't really sad at all.

"If you need it, then this is consolation."

Jack was a little embarrassed. What he was actually anxious about was how to get on line with the military quickly, but obviously everyone misunderstood.

"Richard, has anyone ever told you that you have a good voice?"

Richard shrugged, took a glass of cocktail from the waiter's tray and handed it to Jack,

"If what you just said is a compliment to me, then we should clink glasses."

Jack smiled from the heart and clinked glasses with Richard,

"Today you are different from usual."

"Since today is different, do something even more different. My gut tells me you need help right now."

Jack was silent for a while, Richard was indeed a bit special today, but his intuition told him that Richard was worthy of trust.

"I need to have a little connection with the military. I have a technology in my hand. I believe they will like it."

"So you found Hammer?" Richard shook his head slightly, with a look of disdain, "That guy is very familiar with the people in the equipment department, but all roads lead to Rome. In fact, General Hardaway and I are also very close. relationship, you can try to sell it to me."

If someone else said such things, Jack would only think that the other party was an egomaniac, but from Richard's mouth, Jack felt a touch of wit and humor.

"So, will Mr. Richard help me?"

"Can you tell me what kind of technology I have? I have to say something to convince Hardaway."

"Vertical lifting technology for high-speed fighters." Jack replied bluntly.

Richard showed a look of surprise, "Jack, this is not a joke, do you know the importance of this technology?"

Jack nodded.

"Don't rush to nod, if you really have such technology, why go to Hammer, you just call the Air Force, they will send someone to talk to you within 2 hours, and then you can choose whether to be ruthless or not step on Hammer."

Jack was a little surprised. As a military blind, he probably knew that vertical lift technology was very important, but he never thought it would be so important.

"So, can this technology be exchanged for an overseas military base?" Jack asked.

Richard's face changed slightly, and his originally relaxed face became serious, "I don't know what you are referring to, but it sounds a little dangerous, I will introduce you to General Hardaway, and then you will never I said that just now."

As soon as the words were out of his mouth, Jack realized his mistake. Some things can be done but cannot be said.

The political sense of the black man in front of him is really too sensitive!

Seeing that Jack had realized something, Richard took the initiative to clink glasses with him,

"Enjoy a good evening."

……

Time passed quickly, and the reception ended with a piece of lyrical music.

As the organizer, Jack stood at the mouth of the hall and sent the invitees off.

Everyone left in twos and threes.

Senator Kane was obviously a little drunk. He was supported by a white youth, and he said loudly to Jack,

"Jack, let's go to the football game together when we have time, don't forget, the door of my office is always open for you."

"Of course, I will visit you."

After Kane was sent away, Jack saw the serious Norman Osborn again. Just by his ugly face, Jack knew that this famous New York biotech tycoon didn't get what he wanted.

"Mr. Osborne, I will be visiting your company next week and hope to have a private conversation with you then."

Jack took the initiative to say hello this time.

There was a hint of a smile on the corner of Osborn's mouth, and there was really only a hint of it. If you don't look carefully, you can't find it. He replied sincerely,

"Osborne sincerely welcomes you here."

The last ones to leave were Hanmer and Congressman Lucas. Congressman Lucas was very young with ambition in his eyes. As a well-known radical, his participation would be an accident in itself.

"Mr. Jack, I hope to have an in-depth talk with you next time."

Lucas said politely.

And behind Lucas, the corner of Hammer's mouth was mocking,

"Lucas, what do you want to talk to him about? How to be expelled from the city hall, or how to be expelled from the family. Of course, you can also ask for advice on how to become a billionaire in the shortest possible time."

Jack looked at Hammer indifferently. He didn't understand why Hammer targeted him. It is a miracle that this man who has made enemies everywhere can survive until now in the Marvel world.

Could it be that no superpower secretly shot him?

"Hammer, you're drunk, I'll take you back." Lucas held Hammer back, gave Jack an apologetic look, and then left quickly, obviously afraid that the two would have a conflict.

After everyone left, Cheney, Mark and JJJ came to Jack's side.

Mark spoke first, "I thought you'd give that guy an uppercut."

"Haha Mark, do you think I'm that short? I'm afraid I'll have to squat halfway to give him an uppercut."

Compared with Jack, who is about 180 tall, Hammer is indeed a bit short.

Mark showed a speechless expression, "You are much more boring than before."

"I thought I told a good joke," Jack replied.

While Jack and Mark were bickering, JJJ on the side showed a thoughtful expression.
