Marvel turns into Iron Man

Miss Stark's words caused Dr. Ethan to fall into deep thought. At this time, four Black Hawk armed transport helicopters, the most common military helicopters in active service in the US military, had already approached the hill where the two were.

When Lieutenant Colonel Rhodes anxiously opened the door of the helicopter and jumped out of the helicopter with a group of heavily armed US special forces soldiers, Miss Stark had a smile on her face.

"Good morning, Roddy, maybe it's night, I can't even see a broken watch during this time, and I don't know the time."

"Thank goodness, I finally found you—listen, Toni, the country has become a mess. You must get in touch with the country as soon as possible, otherwise the situation may get worse."

Arriving at Miss Stark's side, Lieutenant Colonel Rhodes breathed a sigh of relief with a tense expression on his dark face. He took a satellite phone and handed it to her, then set his eyes on the Dr. Ethan beside her looked at each other.

However—during the time that the cave was imprisoned, Miss Stark was well aware of what was happening in the United States.

After her disappearance, the wave of public opinion in the country, although it seemed that the two giant companies lost their controllers, eventually led to tens of thousands of people with actual interests or indirect interests, because this incident began A wave of boycotts was launched against the U.S. government and military.

But, in fact, behind this storm of public opinion after this, there is no Miss Stark who helped the flames with the help of Jarvis. The bigger the incident, the more the company will be affected, and the company The greater the impact, the better for her.

The chairman was kidnapped, the company's operations suffered setbacks or even stagnation, and public opinion was surging. In the eyes of the public, both Stark Industries Group and the disaster management and control company had reached an extremely embarrassing situation, which made them start to consider whether the two companies would start go downhill.

And when the first shareholder began to sell shares, almost everyone had already determined that the two companies that lacked a chairman and chief executive officer would suffer huge setbacks as a result.

No matter what the final result is, investors will not want to see the price of their stocks drop and their shares shrink, so emergency selling has become the safest way.

Not only the stock price of Stark Industries Group continued to drop, but even the shareholder group behind the disaster management and control company began to sell their shares, and Jarvis, who had been waiting for a long time, also took advantage of the opportunity to pay a price far below the market price for him. Miss Tucker repossessed more shares.

In a company, generally speaking, the number of shares you hold is equivalent to the right to speak you have.

There are many factions within the board of directors of Stark Industries Group, and the disaster management and control company is a joint venture between the military, political and business circles. Is Miss Stark willing to watch her cake being divided up by others? Of course it is impossible.

Therefore, she has been secretly plotting to get back what belongs to her, and she must be offered willingly.

Miss Stark took the satellite phone, thought for a while, first contacted Obadiah Stein, and then got a scolding, the old man said that she should not be disobedient, and insisted on running to Afghanistan alone. In the war-torn zone where the three don't care, even if you are kidnapped and died, you will die in vain.

Such a big business in the company has been shut down because of her disappearance. Let her reflect on what she has done, and then put on a concerned look, asking her if she is injured and if she needs any help. He will arrange for it immediately. .

In the end, I told her to come back quickly. It is not safe outside. This time, the U.S. military must arrange more escorts. Don’t make any mistakes, otherwise the U.S. government will look good.

Hearing what the old man said on the phone, Miss Stark didn't know what to say, and she also didn't know what expression she should make. This old guy, Obadiah, is greedy for money, cunning, and secretly playing tricks , but this does not prevent him from treating her as his own daughter, caring about her and loving her.

If she was still the old Miss Stark, maybe she would let this old thing pay the price he deserved, but now, she is not the original her.

Sighing slowly, Miss Stark just replied that I got it, and then hung up the communication connection with Obadiah.

During the week of her disappearance, this retired old guy once again returned to the group to preside over the situation and stabilize the situation for her. This is his contribution, and it also shows another thing, that is, he is still on his side.

After finishing the communication, Miss Stark returned the satellite phone to Lieutenant Colonel Rhodes, and took Dr. Ethan, who was still thinking about it, back to the U.S. Air Force Base outside Agram.

"Have you considered it, Dr. Ethan, whether you plan to return to the United States to work with me, or whether you plan to travel alone."

Standing under the gangway of the private airliner, Miss Stark looked at Dr. Ethan, who seemed a little taciturn along the way, but a smile appeared on her face, but when she heard Dr. His expression was a little surprised.

"You are willing to take me in. Actually, I am grateful, but I can't understand...why do you insist on taking me to the United States, and what do you mean by reform? "

After thinking about it for a long time, Dr. Ethan finally gave his own answer. He was unwilling to accept a sky-high salary that he could never imagine because of this matter. Instead, he was willing to go to the United States with her and find a job he wanted. want work.

However, what he cared more about was what Miss Stark told him before - to witness the changes in this world.

What is going on in the world that needs to change?

"It's just a hunch. I don't know how the world will change, but I'm very interested."

Miss Stark looked at Dr. Ethan standing in front of her, shook her head slightly, and replied.

Originally, two people came to Afghanistan on the same plane, but when they returned, although there were still two people, one of them had changed.

Because the impact caused by Miss Stark's disappearance is too great, Stark Industries hopes that the US military will help, temporarily suppressing the news that she is safe and sound, and after she arrives in the United States, Stark Industries will send out announced.

For a large enterprise group like Stark Industries Group, any piece of news, whether it is good news or bad news, may expand into another crisis and opportunity.

Although Lieutenant Colonel Rhodes came with Miss Stark, he did not choose to go back with her, because he still needed to assist General Marcus at Agram Air Force Base to stabilize the situation, especially when such a situation happened. After a big news, everything needs to be considered before taking action.

As for Miss Stark herself, she took a newly recruited excellent engineer and embarked on the journey back to the United States.

"Jarvis, what's going on—"

"Miss, you are really good at predicting things. The domestic situation is exactly as you expected."

Even if Miss Stark's modified private airliner wants to cross half the world and return to the mainland of the United States, it will take a few hours, and during this time, Miss Stark has been in contact with Jarvis.

"What about the acquisition of shares?"

She was dealing with the mess left behind at the company in the time since she disappeared, but it was obvious that she was more concerned about something else.

"Because the quality of the stockholders of the two companies and the stockholders of the board of directors are uneven, some people don't have much knowledge in this regard, so when they see other people sell their stocks, they also sell their own shares. Stocks are selling stops."

"Due to the previous dilution, the Disaster Management and Control Company successfully recovered slightly more shares, accounting for a total of 12%. However, Stark Industries Group's internal opinions are mixed, so I only recovered 2.98% of the total proportion. Sorry, Miss, it was my mistake not to meet your estimate."

Hearing Jarvis' report, Miss Stark nodded slightly, without much expression on her face.

"The old man jumped out too early. He stabilized the situation within the group, but caused the employees and the old guys on the board of directors to not be in chaos. Therefore, we failed to recover the estimated share share. This matter is not your fault. ,Honey."

The old man she was talking about was naturally that old guy Obadiah Stein—originally, after Miss Stark inherited the enterprise group, he had already retreated to the second line to provide for the elderly. Of course, with his hands shares, the annual share is also extremely impressive.

And after Miss Stark disappeared because of being kidnapped, he stood up to help her stabilize the situation within the group without any worries. It may sound touching, and it makes people feel that the Stan family and the Stark family are still standing together. On the same front, but actually.

The main reason is that he does not want his shares to shrink because of this incident. After all, he has worked in Stark Industries Group for decades, devoted all his youth, and got enough returns , There are still a lot of "pensions" waiting for him.

But if the Stark Industries Group went downhill because of the lack of a leader, it would indirectly damage his interests, and of course he would not agree.

He stood up in time and stabilized the internal situation of the Stark Industries Group. Maybe this is a matter of mutual benefit, but unfortunately, what he didn't know was that Miss Stark originally planned to take advantage of this opportunity to buy the bottom .

Miss Stark has always wanted to get back the shares that originally belonged to her, and kick out the group of moths from the board of directors.

Then, because of that old man Obadiah's intervention, her plan to reclaim the shares was thwarted, sadly.

"Okay, I've already figured out the specific situation, and I'll talk about the rest after I go back."

"By the way, there is one more thing. I am going to start the house party plan."

Seemingly remembering something, Miss Stark paused, opened her mouth again, and exhorted.

"In addition, I need you to notify the factory and ask them to send a set of technical materials for the steel suit to the laboratory of the Stark Industrial Building, and our plan can begin to be implemented."

——————————————————————————————

In the cabin of the airliner, on the high bar stool at the luxury bar, Dr. Ethan was obviously a little restless. He looked at the closed mahogany door leading to the bedroom in the middle of the airliner, and the expression on his face was excited again. , Another worry.

He was worried about his future, wondering what would happen after the plane landed, and excited about what Miss Stark had talked to him a few minutes before, before she walked into the bedroom.

"This is the promised reward, a credit card worth [-] million US dollars, all consumer Stark Industries will pay it back for you, the password is your birthday, don't lose it, it's anonymous—congratulations, you have become a Money man's taste is funny, isn't it?"

"Also, don't look at me that way. At our level, it's not difficult to investigate a person's identity file, and I'm not short of money."

Before she walked into the bedroom, Miss Stark held a black bearer VISA credit card, put it on the bar counter of the bar, and pushed it in front of Dr. Ethan.

Ms. Stark is indeed not short of money. The agreement reached with the U.S. Department of Defense a few days ago has allowed Stark Industries to rake in more than 450 billion U.S. dollars in arms transaction orders. Moreover, the money has already been approved by Congress to reach Stark. In the accounts of the Ke Industrial Group, she also made a lot of money.

After deducting costs, taxes, and the company's operating capital flow, reserve funds and other expenses, the net profit will be redistributed according to the number of shares held, which will also allow her, a major shareholder who holds more than half of the shares, to Earn tens of billions of dollars in money.

And this is the result after the personal income tax has been deducted, and the result is - she has become a little rich woman again.

Even a large enterprise like the Stark Industries Group would not dare to cause any trouble in terms of taxation, otherwise the tax agents of the IRS would not let them go.

Of course, the news of the completion of the order has not yet been released, and the order turnover of nearly [-] billion is enough to make any company a star company in the market and a target of investors' favor.

When the order was completed, Ms. Stark had already discussed this matter with Obadiah, and decided to suppress this matter now and announce it at an appropriate time, so as to bring more prestige benefits to the group.

Of course, Miss Stark will not forget that the reason why she left for Afghanistan was not only to save someone, but also to gain enough prestige for herself.

She must let the company's employees understand that it is beneficial to work with her, even greater than the benefits that the board of directors can bring to them.

Some people may think that this way of making money is too slow-of course, it is not only slow, but also primitive and takes time.

She has the Reality Gem, and she can drop money from the sky with just a snap of her fingers, but is there any gaming experience at all?

Looking at the credit card worth [-] million dollars in his hand, the expression on Dr. Ethan's face was unmoved. He just sighed and pushed the credit card back.

The [-] million dollar credit card that can make people crazy in front of anyone, and the world's largest military enterprise donated it free of charge. Telling such a thing can make many people crazy, but Dr. Ethan did not accept it.

"I can't ask for this money, but I'm more concerned about what kind of job you plan to give me."

Seeing Dr. Ethan's refusal, Miss Stark slightly raised the corners of her lips, with a slightly surprised expression on her face.

"I'm just an ordinary mechanical engineer who has learned a little first aid. There are too many people like me."

"Then I want to ask you, what do you think, or do you have any dreams?"

For her, a person who can refuse the temptation of [-] million US dollars is definitely a pure person, a noble person.

She has completely withdrawn her contempt, but instead has another idea. She wants to help Dr. Ethan fulfill his dream as her reward.

"Actually...I have always wanted to be a designer and build my hometown...but my hometown has disappeared, completely disappeared."

Dr. Ethan's hesitant words fell into Miss Stark's ears, but she couldn't help but smile.

"Heh——just in time, I have a project here, and I want to develop a residential area. Maybe you can be the designer of it."

What Ms. Stark said is naturally her idea of ​​building a superhero community. For this reason, her lawyer is also negotiating with the New York City government on land issues, and plans to expand the disaster management and control company employee community as a base for building a superhero community.

She doesn't mind letting a completely inexperienced designer plan this project, which is still in its inception stage, especially a savior who turned down [-] million US dollars.

In just a few minutes, Miss Stark found a job for Dr. Ethan that could realize his dream, and then she planned to contact Jarvis to see how the situation in the country was.

There were some things that Dr. Ethan could not hear, so she decided to go to the bedroom and find a private place to talk to Jarvis.

Before leaving, Miss Stark looked at the credit card on the table, and pushed the card to Dr. Ethan again.

"I am a person who keeps my promises - this [-] million US dollars is the reward I promised, and it is the reward you deserve. If you are not willing to accept it, you can donate it to the International Red Cross or the World Health Organization. personal name."

After finishing speaking, Miss Stark turned and left, pushed open the door of the bedroom, and walked in without looking back, leaving only Dr. Ethan with a surprised face sitting by the bar counter of the bar.
