Chapter 42: Someone is upset
"Immortality comes at a price, and there is no such thing as immortality in this world. What about even a god as powerful as Asgard? How long does Odin live? 5,000 years or so. Roma said to Strange.
"If you want to live longer, it's not that there's no way, it's just that you need to pay some price and some tricks. For example, the lord of heaven, Jehovah, is probably the longest-living of the gods at present. Beyond the limits of many gods. He must have done some trickery. ”
"And the smell of the blood of the ancient gods in your body, why is it so coincidental? To be honest, I can't believe the ancient one. And do you still believe in the Ancient One?"
"His soul is to be sacrificed after death. This is more terrible than all the torture. He might do everything he can to make himself live longer. And what will he do? I can't guarantee. ”
Maybe Roma does have a little prejudice against the ancient one or something. Even the Ancient One couldn't get everyone to accept his ideas and practices. He suppressed the Greenwich faction and tightened the rules of exchanging power with demons. He and Merlin are in conflict on many philosophical issues.
But he himself privately used the demon exchange law left by Merlin back then to draw energy from the dark space and make himself immortal. From the bottom of his heart, Roma felt that the ancient one was a villain who said one thing and did another.
Although Strange didn't fully believe what Roma said. But what Roma said made Strange shake a little, if what she said was true, then was the Ancient One really as fair as he thought, or would the Ancient One really do anything for the sake of immortality? He didn't know, and he didn't dare to ask the Ancient One for verification.
It's hardest when a person has something on his mind and no one to talk to. Strange didn't know who to talk to about these things, and Roma showed him more secret things. This made Strange even more uncomfortable.
Although Roma gave him some small recipes to neutralize the side effects of the mana potion. But Strange wasn't happy at all.
Little did Jack know that Strange was now facing a difficult choice in his life.
Now, the Nova Legion's tender is complete, and Captain Rogers travels to the Nova Legion's ships with more than twenty bids to report to Lord Elaini.
After a two-day meeting (playing Mario Kart behind closed doors), Lord Elaini handpicked the Marvel Entertainment Group's bid.
"A lot of things in this tender look interesting. Elaini said very seriously: "Actually, the earth is still a relatively backward civilization. ”
Although this is a bit hurtful, but people are from a higher civilization, and if you say that we are backward in civilization, then we should be backward.
"A lot of supplies on Earth don't have much of an appeal to Nova Legion and the Covenant. But the earth's culture is diverse, in fact, each planet has its own unique cultural charm. Just like you earthlings will like to travel to see the scenery of various places and experience the local culture. ”
"Within the Nova Legion, there is a tolerance and openness to all cultures with unique charms. So this tender is the best value. "Elaine's ten-member is considered to have been appointed to Marvel.
Of course, there are other companies in these tenders that mention cultural products and the like.
Elaini also needs to give a basic explanation of why this part of the bid did not win the bid: "Because the Marvel Entertainment Group's bid is more detailed, and the products provided in it are very appetizing to us. ”
"I think it's like a kind of fate, and there are people who like the same thing. At least half of the products selected by the Marvel Group are interesting to us. So I'm more inclined to someone who knows how to provide services to do this. ”
Captain Elaini's words were serious, but Leonardo scoffed inwardly when he heard them. These are 11 referees playing on the court! Whether you commit a foul or not is up to you, and others are still playing fart.
But what does it matter? I've become a member of Tony Stark's chariot, and that's in my best interest. All you need to do is to keep your position on the chariot.
And when the bottom of the bid was revealed, the whole world was in an uproar. No one thought that such a small company would win the bid.
Many companies, especially large ones, are ready to initiate the takeover mechanism and prepare to forcibly acquire Marvel Entertainment. For example, Disney, for example, Warner Bros. is gearing up.
And before these people could do anything, another news came. Sugon Technology and Regeneration Technology will take a stake in Marvel Entertainment. Marvel Entertainment will raise more than $20 billion in financing in installments and batches to make the entire group bigger.
Everyone knows about it, and it turns out that Tony Stark and Harry Osborne are ready to do it.
And the relationship between Li Jie and Harry and Tony was also revealed, and they were all friends. Now everyone is not calm.
Behind the emotional Marvel Entertainment, there is such a big guy standing in the back. They must have colluded early on. Let Li Jie's Marvel Entertainment take the lead.
If they can win the bid, then the two large groups will enter the market with financing. If you don't win, then you don't have much to lose. It's no wonder that we didn't see any moves from Stark and Osborne in this bidding meeting. I'm afraid everyone was deceived by Tony and Harry!
There are many people who feel dissatisfied, but there is nothing they can do. What else can I do? Do you want to beat two people?
Lee Kit's Marvel Entertainment is starting to get very, very busy. So Li Jie didn't have time to worry about Strange's anomalies. Because this time he needs to prepare a huge amount of supplies for Elaini to take away.
The total price of this batch of materials is more than one billion US dollars, and it is advanced by Marvel Entertainment Group (actually the money of Dawning Technology and Regeneration Technology). When the receipt of joining the Star Alliance comes from Elaini's side, then the Earth Federation will pay the money.
This is a big gamble, and the average businessman may not have the guts. But Marvel Entertainment did just that.
Although he doesn't have to do everything himself, Li Jie still needs to manage and check the materials mobilized from all over the world. Then let the Ark ships ship ship by ship to the Nova Legion's warships.
It seems that everything is running in a good place, and the Earth Federation joining the Star Alliance is already a promising thing. The turning point of the world has come, and many people are holding on to faith.
But some people don't think so, and his heart is terrible.
