The Cycle of Worlds Begins with Naruto
Chapter 293
The congressman on the rostrum almost got angry to death by Tony. This is the scene of the US military hearing, not your Tony Stark fan meeting.
It took more than ten minutes for the scene to quiet down.
"Okay, now I declare the hearing officially open. I am the host of this hearing. The core issue of today's hearing is: Tony Stark, do you have the individual mecha weapon "Iron Armor"? I think Mr. Tony should not deny this, right?"
"After all, you admitted it yourself, you are Iron Man."
The congressman rarely said nonsense and went straight to the point at the beginning of the hearing.
"Sir, this depends on how you define weapons. First of all, I admit that I am Iron Man, but I refuse to admit that he is a weapon. You know, you can't suspect that he is a weapon just because I have a unique technology."
"Just like I can't suspect you of corruption just because you are a congressman, sir, you know, accusations without evidence are just slander."
Tony leaned sideways, whispering with Pepper while responding to the congressman's accusations.
"Tony, do you think we are all fools? You actually said that the Iron Man Armor is not a weapon? There is no doubt that it is a weapon."
"High-tech prosthesis? There is no doubt that this is my latest high-tech prosthesis."
Tony just came up with this reason. Facing the accusation of the congressman, Tony knew very well that the Ministry of Defense and the military were jealous of his technology.
"Tony Stark, your remarks are really ridiculous."
"Mr. Congressman, what is your academic background and what major did you study?"
"Does this have anything to do with my doubts?"
"I suspect that Mr. Congressman does not have enough knowledge and professional level to judge my iron prosthesis. An outsider accusing my prosthesis of being a weapon of war is a slander against me."
There were bursts of applause at the hearing. This was the spontaneous applause of reporters because of Tony's thick skin. Everyone knows what the Iron Man Armor is. Even reporters admire Tony's thick skin for ignoring the military and lying directly to his face.
"It's okay, Tony Stark. Maybe I lack professional knowledge, but I have invited a professional, an expert in weapons. I think his words must be more convincing than mine."
"We invite Mr. Justin Hammer, the president of Hammer Industries."
There was a chattering discussion at the scene. Hammer Industries and Stark Industries are the main competitors, but Stark Industries is basically engaged in the production and development of high-end weapons, while Hammer Industries is engaged in the production and development of low-end weapons.
In the field of technology, Hammer Industries is crushed.
"As one of the experts in the field of weapons, it is obvious that Mr. Tony Stark's iron armor is a single-soldier combat weapon. This is my expertise and confidence as the president of Hammer Industries. I think Mr. Tony's mechanical prosthesis should not be used. The military and people of the United States will not believe such funny remarks."
"Justin Hammer, are you also a professional?" Tony sneered, "I have never heard of your company's products."
"Okay, I admit that compared to you, I am not an expert. You are the real expert. You are undoubtedly a genius and inventor, but I am also a practitioner in the weapons industry. Armor is a weapon. I can't say this against my conscience."
Justin Hammer's humble attitude at this moment seems to be showing his objectivity and neutrality to the world, but it's a pity that Tony doesn't buy it at all.
"How about I show everyone your research?" After saying that, Tony directly invaded the display at the hearing site, and the video inside the Hammer Industrial Laboratory began to play on the screen.
"Open the link. OK, take a step forward." In the video, Hammer Industries has imitated Tony's Iron Armor and spontaneously developed a similar armor. The test was in progress, but the test failed just after it started. The armor was scattered all over the floor.
Then the screen switched again, this time to another test site. The screen still showed a replica of Iron Armor, which was performing a test task.
"Turn around." The armor turned its upper body hard, but the lower body did not move at all. Then a scream came from the record. The soldier was almost twisted by the armor.
Then the armor rotated hard again, and the upper body of the armor rotated 180 degrees directly. The screaming soldier suddenly became silent. Blood also gurgled out.
The screen was disconnected all of a sudden. Of course, it was not Tony who took the initiative to disconnect, but Justin Hammer directly unplugged the power supply."I'm sorry, believe me, the experimenter is not in danger of death." Justin Hammer seemed to be explaining the accident in the video just now.
"No need to explain, Justin, I believe you. The driver is definitely not dead, at most he is just paraplegic." Tony stood up and kept applauding Justin Hammer.
"It's really wonderful. It seems that Hammer Industries and the military are studying my mechanical prosthesis, but it seems that even walking is a problem. Mr. Congressman, you don't have to worry about my mechanical prosthesis being abused, because my technology is at least 20 years ahead of you!"
Tony stood up and said confidently, "I can prevent nuclear deterrence, Iron Man is very useful, we are very safe, and America is also very safe. I alone am enough to maintain world peace!"
The whole audience applauded, and the black-faced congressman and Justin Hammer could only watch helplessly, especially in front of so many media.
There is no doubt that this military hearing ended anticlimactic. At the hearing, the video of Hammer Industries' steel armor test was circulated. Although no one was targeting Hammer Industries, everyone tacitly accepted that Hammer Industries' technology was not good enough.
Correspondingly, Hammer Industries' stock price plummeted, dropping tens of billions in a few days, so Hammer Industries once became the laughing stock of the industry.
As for the video of the US military, Tony gave it a face and did not release it.
"Tony, are we too ostentatious?" Pepper, who accompanied Tony out of the hearing, was a little worried. After all, the US military was Stark Industries' biggest customer, and it was too harsh to offend them. After all, there were still some concerns.
"Don't worry, I've closed the weapons manufacturing department. Stark Industries will no longer focus on the weapons industry. We need to transform."
"Isn't this too sudden? Stark Industries' shares have fluctuated greatly, and some shareholders have complained..."
"Then buy his shares. Stark Industries doesn't need more voices."
Tony responded very strongly. In Tony's view, Stark Industries' stocks are almost equivalent to giving money to shareholders, rather than relying on shareholders' charity. Obaday is a thing of the past. Tony doesn't mind making Stark Industries purer.
The main content of the evening news is Tony Stark's impassioned speech at the military hearing. There is no doubt that Tony's reputation has become more famous.
The worst is not the US military. After all, the military is a group of old hands and doesn't care about today's embarrassment. To be honest, it's not the first time that the US military has been embarrassed. For example, Ross, even if he concocted a monster like the Hulk, he still rose to prominence.
The military has no shame and only cares about substantive interests.
