Lord Stark

"Well, remember to give me one after you make it, understand?" After hearing about Tony's idea of ​​using the Ark reactor as energy to manufacture a full-body armor, Howard immediately became interested.

It was rare for Tony to get affirmation from Howard, and he started talking endlessly. Howard rubbed his clean chin, looked at Tony's own mustache with some disgust, and couldn't help but start hitting Tony: "You now It’s a good idea, but what’s next? After seeing the power of your armor, the Ministry of Defense definitely wants to purchase it, what do you want to do?”

Tony doesn't want to sell the battle armor as arms. To be honest, he feels that it is a bit cumbersome to make arms now. Stark Industries is too big now, and many fields are mixed. He insisted on running here to conduct some kind of missile launch test, and he was attacked?

Tony never believed in coincidences, and he was already thinking about who pushed this conspiracy against him.

In particular, Tony was forced by these terrorist organizations to build missiles this time, which made him feel a little emotional. Now everyone thinks that Stark is an arms dealer and a warmonger, and when he thinks of Wanda who came to assassinate him, on the one hand he feels Selling arms is indeed against humanitarianism. On the other hand, he already feels that the weapons manufacturing and development department in Stark Industries is now useless.Even if the United States promotes democracy and freedom everywhere, and fights various local wars for various reasons, on the one hand, the anti-war trend in the country has never subsided; on the other hand, the annual arms purchases are only so many.The sales are actually similar to the sales of smartphones, or even worse, not to mention other departments of Stark Industries, almost all of them are cash cows. Tony checked the current cash stock of Stark Industries before. , almost startled myself.

Therefore, Tony said to Howard very frankly: "Compared with those high-tech, the profit of arms is actually the same, not to mention that we hold a lot of patents in our hands, and other arms companies want to make weapons. Pay the money, so when I go back, I plan to close the weapons manufacturing and development department."

Howard looked at Tony and laughed: "Your father and I have retired a long time ago, Stark Industries is now your decision, you can do whatever you want!"

Tony secretly breathed a sigh of relief, he still felt that he needed some support, and now he said with a playful smile: "I said, I will develop Stark Industries to be stronger than you were back then, what do you think now? I I have already thought about it, this battle armor is naturally not for sale, but the Ark reactor can, I plan to change the weapon manufacturing and development department into the energy department, specializing in the sale of clean energy, this is an exclusive sale!"

Seeing that Tony was beaming with delight, Howard softened his face, and suddenly said, "Tony, have I told you that you have always been the pride of Maria and me!" Howard was frightened by this accident. , Thinking about the accident I had before, I suddenly realized that if I didn't speak my mind, maybe there might not be a chance in the future.

Tony was stunned when he heard that, and he blushed a little rarely. After a while, he pretended to be proud and said, "Of course, if I'm not your pride, who else is?"

Howard was dumbfounded by his fart, he stood up, and said angrily: "Okay, there is no reliable word out of his mouth, isn't Matthew our pride? Really, sometimes, I will I think Matthew is like an elder, but you, as a father, are as naive as a child!"

Tony immediately protested: "What is this called? Matthew is my son, and it is my pride. You have crossed the line!"

Matthew yawned and came in from outside: "Grandpa, Tony, what are you talking about?"

Tony knew from Howard before that Matthew was looking for his whereabouts without sleep, so he immediately jumped off the hospital bed, opened his arms, and hugged Matthew: "Oh, dear baby, it's really hard for you this time! Uh, I'm so sorry, I lost the talisman and watch you gave me!"

Matthew hugged Tony back: "Tony, it's great that you're okay. We found the wreckage of the amulet at the scene. According to what we saw at the scene, the amulet should have played its due role! As for the watch, just throw it away." Right!" The storage equipment made by Matthew is different from that of the wizards. The wizards apply a space extension spell to a small space, but Matthew directly intercepts a different space and connects it to the corresponding items.After the spells on the large-capacity space equipment of the wizards expire, the contents inside will explode, and even if the storage equipment made by Matthew goes wrong, the contents will only flow into a different space, so it will not be destroyed. People notice what is unexpected.

When Tony heard this, he couldn't help but feel a little scared. The amulet worked, and he was injured and fainted. If he didn't wear the amulet, wouldn't he be dead on the spot?

In any case, Tony is safe. After saying goodbye to his former friend Ethan, Tony plans to return to the United States.The U.S. military made a big mistake this time. If the biggest rich man in the U.S. had something irreversible happen to them, even the president would not be able to handle it under pressure from all sides. .Therefore, even if Tony sneered, they had to endure it.

When Tony got off the plane, he felt as if he had passed away. He swore that he would never want to go to a place like Afghanistan again in his life.

Tony didn't bother to pay attention to the military's teasing, and it was nothing more than shirking each other's responsibilities. Anyway, no matter who came out to take the blame, the military had to give Stark Industries an explanation this time.He got on his own private jet directly and flew all the way back to the United States.

Pepper had already received the news and was waiting at the airport. Tony had been missing for a few days. She could hardly suppress the shareholders on the board of directors. These people could only nod in front of Tony. There is room for improvement. Fortunately, following Tony, everyone has made a lot of money, and everyone is happy to be a Tony.

The problem is, Tony is missing, and his life and death are unknown. Some unscrupulous tabloids are shouting there, saying that Tony's body has been found, and so on, and there are several terrorist organizations that have emerged from nowhere, shouting for this matter. Responsible, of course, the final result is also very tragic!Can someone like Tony be a good match?How dare you say that you kidnapped him and killed him, how many people will come out and let you know why the flowers are so popular.

Pepper has served as Tony's assistant for the longest time in these years. She is indeed very capable. Whether it is official business or Tony's personal affairs, she is handled properly. Tony is also very satisfied with this assistant. She is an intellectual beauty, considerate and capable, Tony She was given a salary increase almost every month, and now the assistant's salary seems to be the highest in Stark Industries.

The problem is, no matter how capable she is, she still assumes the role of an assistant. Before, she said one thing because she represented Tony. Now Tony’s life and death are unknown, and the stock of Stark Industries is plummeting. When Howard disappeared, Tony propped up Stark Industries because Tony was in his 20s and had been out of college for several years.Now if something happens to Tony, Matthew is still a middle school student. Who can believe that Matthew can prop up such a large enterprise, so people are panicked. shares.

In addition, there are some people who don't want Tony to come back, and they are fighting for power one by one. Anyway, Stark Industries has developed to this point. Even if a pig sits in that position, he only needs to wait for the money to be counted. So, why not I went up by myself, so I jumped up and down one by one. In short, there was no time for peace.

Pepper has been in a state of desperation these days. After learning the news of Tony's safe return, she was arguing with someone on the board of directors and immediately threw away the documents in her hand. Go ahead and quarrel, the Lord is back!

Not to mention the ignorance of the members of the board of directors, after Pepper left, he immediately drove to the airport, and Happy also followed him shamelessly.Although he is the security chief next to Tony, he is actually doing management work. He is actually a soldier. After retiring, he was almost desperate. When he met Tony, Tony was a casual person. , Didn’t you serve as a soldier, then do it with me!

Happy wants to say that his professional level in terms of security is really average, but he can’t help him to take everything about Tony to heart, how many things Tony has at home, and how many supermodels he knows, he knows better than Tony, Tony said If he wanted to pick up a celebrity, he could immediately take out his mobile phone and call the manager's number, which was like shit.

Something happened to Tony this time, and Happy was a tall and burly man, almost crying. He really didn't know what else he could do without Tony!This time, when he heard the news, he didn't care about anything else, and followed Pepper to the airport to pick him up.

Tony still looked heartless and cynical to the two subordinates who could not wait to get excited to tears. He was going to enjoy two burgers first, change his clothes, and then hold a press conference. As for Matthew and Howard , Matthew is going back to school for vacation, Howard is too lazy to look at Tony's stinky fart, Maria is worried about Tony these days and can't close her eyes all night long, the originally elegant and beautiful old lady has dark circles under her eyes , he has to take his wife back to take a rest. As for Tony, since he is fine, he can do whatever he wants to do next!

Maria was worried about Tony, but to put it bluntly, her son was already an adult, in his forties, and he had to live the rest of his life by himself, and parents couldn't control him for the rest of his life. Instead, it was her husband who would The person who will accompany her for the rest of her life, therefore, after exhorting Tony a few words, Maria returned to Long Island with Howard.

Tony's press conference directly set off a big thunder. In the eyes of most Americans, Tony's impression is an arms tycoon, a playboy, a genius inventor, etc., but even though Stark Industries has several charitable funds, there is no People can associate Tony with descriptions like humanitarian fighter, pacifist and so on.

As a result, Tony said at the press conference with high spirits that after this crisis, he realized the value of peace and the harm caused by war to people. Industrial Weapons Manufacturing Development Department.

Suddenly, everyone was dumbfounded, and Pepper almost screamed, why can't you talk to me before the development conference, everyone thinks that Stark Industries is a military enterprise, but you tell everyone, you are not prepared Manufacturing arms, selling arms, what on earth do you want to do!

Even though his heart was about to be "fucked", as a dedicated assistant, Pepper still had to put on a smile and clean up the mess.After the press conference was over, Pepper had a chance to ask Tony what was going on.

Tony sat on the sofa carelessly, opened the refrigerator door of the small refrigerator next to him, took out a can of beer from inside, pulled it open, took a sip, and said with a smile: "Didn't I make it clear before? I This time when I was attacked, the terrorist organizations used weapons produced by our Stark Industries, and forced me to make missiles for them. Now I deeply feel the importance of peace! Ah, weapons are the root of all evil. , if there are no weapons, the world will be peaceful!"

Pepper was half-dead by his words. When he didn't have hot weapons, he didn't see world peace. But now that Tony has announced the news at the press conference, this matter should be a foregone conclusion. With Tony's temperament , even if it's a slip of the tongue, he can tell you the mistake, not to mention his appearance, it doesn't look like a joke at all!

Pepper only felt that if he followed Tony, his life would be shortened by at least ten years, but he still sighed: "Well, I thought the company's stock would go up when you came back, but it looks like it's about to fall to the bottom soon!"

Tony smiled and said: "It's okay, just buy back those shares that are circulating outside, and make it clear to those shareholders who want to withdraw their shares, we will buy their shares at a premium, and when they look back, they will regret it later!"

"What's your new idea?" Pepper asked.

Tony complacently threw the empty beer can aside, and said, "You'll know later, let's go, I had a good idea before, but it's not convenient in Afghanistan, I have to go back to the experiment The room will make the finished product!" As he spoke, he stood up hastily, and was about to leave.

Tony's press conference is not over yet, the stock price that had been on an upward trend fell precipitously, and a group of shareholders on the board of directors were so angry that they were about to have a heart attack. Some clamored to find Tony and insisted on holding another press conference. , admitted that he was just drunk and talking nonsense before, and did not intend to really close the weapons department, but Tony went back to Liberty City, and locked himself in the laboratory as soon as he returned, and no one came .

There was no way to take Tony. Some shareholders who claimed to be more qualified went to Long Island to look for Howard. Howard was feeling sorry for Maria at the moment. Old people didn't sleep much, and she had survived for several days. Afterwards, he couldn't sleep well, and he finally took a rest. Howard was thinking about waiting for Maria to recover from this period and take her to the Nordic side for vacation, when he heard that a group of old shareholders of the company had come. He is not a temper who likes to think about others. He has always been a willful person. He immediately said that young people decide on their own. He has retired long ago. Regardless of these things, he didn't even open the door.

In short, the shareholders and stockholders of Stark Industries are still more panicked now than when Tony's life and death were unknown.
