Chapter 170: Black and White Upside Down
Stark turned his head and pointed at Pepper, who was righteously speaking on the TV screen, and said with a contemptuous smile on his face, "See? This is public opinion, which can be manipulated and changed at will, turning black into white and white into black, which is useless and does not need to be cared about, but it is extremely important and must be extremely cared about. ”
As if afraid that Grell wouldn't understand, Stark explained slowly: "Just like this incident, that Senator Stern can attack me, saying that if the army is not equipped with steel suits, one day facing a large-scale invasion of the Iron Suit Legion, then the people will be slaughtered.
But I first held a press conference, saying that if I were the only one in the world, then there would be no incident of the steel suit army joining the group, and people would prefer the two sides of the war to use stones and sticks as weapons to avoid damaging their houses and cars than two armies of steel suits fighting, causing a lot of damage and the possibility of casualties. ”
Greel, who was sitting on the sofa, tilted his head and thought for a while before he understood the meaning of Stark's words, rather than the weapons installed by various countries becoming more and more powerful, ordinary people prefer that all countries disband their armies, so that there will be no war and destroy a quiet and peaceful life. Except for a few restless people, ninety percent of the people have the idea of 'how far the war goes, how far can it go', or don't destroy my family's things when the war breaks out.
And Pepper is pointing out this, intentionally or unintentionally, to let people know that the consequences of the proliferation of the steel suit are extremely serious. In the past, I used to have a few guns at home to protect myself, and in the future, I may have to prepare a steel suit; In the past, chasing thieves was to drive a police car and take a rifle, but in the future, they will probably have to wear steel suits to chase them......
At the same time as pointing out this, Pepper is still in the crazy diss Hammer Industries and a certain Senator Stern, no matter what the pot is thrown at them, without a trace, it makes people feel that Stark did not hand over the steel suit in order to prevent the steel suit technology from flooding, which will cause more serious problems, such a great personality is really breathtaking.
Pepper finally finished reading the long speech and entered the part of answering reporters' questions, and at this time, Stark suddenly said with his legs crossed: "BOY, are you going to show up at the press conference below?" ”
"Huh?!" Greer, who was wandering in the world, was pulled back by Stark's sudden words, and he didn't understand what Stark meant for a while, this guy's thinking was too jumpy, wasn't he still talking about his means of manipulating and playing with public opinion just now? Why did this sentence pop up suddenly? Is there any connection between the two?
Stark continued: "Actually, the public is more interested in you, and a reporter in the exhibition hall took a photo of you and those drone battles in the morning, and he sold 220,000 US dollars. ”
"What?!" Grell almost didn't jump up, 220,000 US dollars, he could buy a two- or three-story villa in a small town, and he was earned by someone with his own photos? No wonder in the movie, Spider-Man chooses the job of a reporter, can sell his own photos, and is a monopoly, but as long as he is strong, he can make a fortune by selling selfies. Hearing about the huge remuneration received by this reporter, Greer now wants to take a photo album for himself and change to a sea-view room.
"Iron Man is a product of science, but your armor subverts the scientific system of mankind, or... What you represent is the scientific system of the future, well, there are quite a few people who believe that your armor is high-tech. Stark said something that sounded ridiculous with a serious face.
"Huh?!" Grell looked stunned, Kamen Rider really has little to do with science, and it doesn't look like a mystery, but it's a bit like a fantasy product, how did it become future science? That's.
"Your dragon is not aerodynamic, but what if you invent an anti-gravity system? There is also armor that extends from the belt, which is still in the experimental stage of nanotechnology, and as for appearing and disappearing out of thin air, there is the theory of the Einstein-Rosen bridge. ”
Stark casually gave a few examples, straightened up, stared at Greer very seriously, and said, "I heard some gossip that someone in the military wants to beat you up to get advanced technology, and they firmly believe that you have obtained alien high-tech armor. ”
"Heh," Grell sneered, if he had just come to this world or before he went to Asgard, he would have been nervous and panicked when he heard the news of being targeted by the military, after all, if he didn't become a Kamen Rider at that time, he was just an ordinary person.
But now that Greer has super strength, sensitive touch and strong physique, and has the power of the Demon Emperor, he is really not afraid of anything, and anyone who dares to hit his attention will definitely pay an unbearable price.
"Then let them come, and I'll teach them a lesson to remember." Greer was actually expecting someone to come to him for trouble, and it wouldn't be as simple as destroying a few gunships. Last time, he dared to threaten him with a cruiser, and then he definitely dared to destroy a few warships and use points to make up for his mental losses.
"That's why I asked if you want to show up at the press conference, no one knows about you, no one knows about you, so they can say whatever they want, and they can be whatever they want you to be."
Stark said and pointed to the big screen in front of him, which was still playing at the press conference, and said: "Some time ago, the military forced me to hand over the steel suit, and a few small characters who were released to test me clamored to drive tanks and gunships to get it, but just talking, the whole world knows that I am Iron Man, who dares to send troops to rob me?" This is against the law, and once it is exposed, even if he is the president, he will step down.
This is the rule of the game, and whoever dares to violate it will pay the price.
Jarvis has compiled the video materials of your protection of ordinary people in Chinatown, Flushing, fairs and other places, and there are so many witnesses, a little guidance can set off the momentum of public opinion, and build you into a righteous hero and idol who fights for ordinary people, so that you are also a participant in the game.
It's impossible to say that his political opponents would be happy if he rounded up the green guy and used massive tanks and planes. As for the small actions in the shadows, what hearings, what the terms of the treaty, it is not a matter, it can be easily resolved. ”
"Uh... Sounds like a hassle. Grell shook his head as if he didn't understand, it's too complicated, he's not a good athlete, he doesn't know the rules and the direction of the wind at all, he prefers to use super strength and terrifying destructive power to threaten all the guys who beat his idea, and simply and rudely show the attitude of 'if you can't kill me, I can kill your whole family'.
