Chapter 21: Tony Stark's Attention
A Boeing 737 custom plane landed at the airport in Los Angeles, and about ten minutes later, a middle-aged man wearing a slim wine black suit and a short trench coat, with a red tie, and some smiles on his handsome face, walked out of the plane with two beautiful flight attendants in his arms.
Looking at the familiar anchor beard of this man, most Americans could recognize the son of the era, Playboy, Playboy and arms dealer Tony Stark, apparently his private jet, apparently returning home from outside.
Pepper Pepper Potts was under the plane quietly looking at the man above, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, I don't know why, as long as the moment he saw Tony Stark, Pepper's heart would be much more relieved.
"Hey Pepper, miss me?" Tony let go of the stewardess in his arms and walked down with a smile.
"Not much of it, welcome back, Tony." Pepper smiled charmingly, but she didn't care about Tony's teasing, I don't know why, these two people obviously have a heart for each other, but they didn't say anything about hiding their thoughts well.
"Oh no, you don't want me to see these things, do you?" Tony only noticed some information in Pepper's hand at this time, and he had a headache.
"It's for the week, and there are some documents that you don't need to look at, you need to sign." Pepper smiled, and he was the only one who could get Tony to do the work obediently.
"Okay, it looks like I'm naturally busy, can you let me watch it in the car?" Tony frowned, God knows why there were so many documents for him to deal with, wouldn't those managers and high-ranking officials do it themselves.
Of course, the above is just Tony's own complaining, after all, such a big industry, if you really let Tony completely let go, it is impossible, there are many people staring at Stark Industries, if he really falls, maybe this company has been swallowed by someone a long time ago.
"Hey, boss, this time you're driving yourself, or?" A fat man in a suit walks by, he is Tony's bodyguard and driver Harpy. This person has a face that reassures many women, so that they can treat this Harpy as their best friend without any scruples.
"Aha, that's a good question, I'd love to answer that I'm going to drive myself, but look here, obviously, I need you as a driver." Tony smirked and said to his bodyguard.
Harpy immediately showed a look of "I understand", although he didn't know what the other party understood, he walked over to one of the two cars he had prepared, a relatively low-key business van, and then drove Tony Stark and Pepperpots to Tony's lair, a seaside villa in the port of Malibu.
In the car, in order to prevent Harpy, a broken-mouthed guy, from interfering, Tony turned off the baffle, and then asked Pepper about some company matters, in fact, he seemed to others to be the kind of shopkeeper, but this was actually because he had a person he trusted in the company.
After a quick glance at the materials in his hand, he pulled out a tray from the side and began to quickly sign on these materials.
"It's a boring job." Tony said to Pepper as he signed.
"But it's also necessary." Pepper smiled, knowing that Tony was just whining.
"Okay, but do you have something to say to me?" Tony asked suddenly.
In fact, it stands to reason that Pepper will not come to pick him up in person this time, after all, he still has to go to the company tomorrow, but since the other party has appeared now, there must be something to say to him, or something to discuss with him.
"There's one thing that I don't know if you'll be interested in." Pepper nodded slightly, then organized the language and told Tony about Stanley.
"Oh, your junior? Is he a handsome person? Tony asked suddenly.
Pepper was slightly stunned, then nodded and said, "Listening to you say this, you are really a very handsome junior brother." ”
Tony's heart was slightly relieved when he heard the word 'junior brother', and perhaps he didn't feel a trace of 'vinegar' in his words just now.
"Self-researched, body-strengthening shoes?"
"Well, he showed me that after I put it on, I can kick and break a wrist-thick wooden pillar, of course, the limit is definitely not this, but he won't let me try, saying that the strength is too strong and will hurt himself."
"So there are some flaws?"
"What he means is that this is for people who have been trained."
"Understood, so, he's here to invest?"
"Well, whether it's from a private or corporate perspective, I think his technology is really worth the investment."
"Then you can invest in the past, you don't need to tell me about this kind of thing."
"He asked for you to invest personally, not to be affiliated with Stark Industries."
"Huh? It's kind of interesting. ”
"What do you mean?"
"I'll go back and think about it before I get back to you."
“OK!”
While speaking, the car had already arrived in front of Tony's house, and Pepper knew that Tony might have to rest now, so he didn't go in with him, but asked Harpy to go back from her, at this time Tony suddenly asked Pepper for Stanley's name, and then walked into the door of the house.
"Welcome back, sir"
"Jarvis, help me look up a guy who, well, seems to be named Stan Lee, a midtown high school graduate." Tony asked his intelligent butler Jarvis to investigate Stanley, and although he didn't care just now, he still cared a little about this person being close to his little secretary.
Of course, if you ask, Tony will definitely tell you that he is worried that Pepper has been deceived, and I just want to know the other party's information and other words to hide what I really think, of course, he almost believes what he says.
"The search is over, but I found a few people who meet the search conditions just now, a total of more than a dozen people, and I'll call them up for you now." After Jarvis finished speaking, he projected his findings on one wall in the living room.
"Remove the oldest, and the youngest, well, remove the twenty-year-old, probably not, and the middle-aged bald head is also removed, not handsome at all. And then the remaining three people, look up their information, well, this time the keyword plus physical strengthening. Tony glanced at the photos and messages on the wall, and subconsciously excluded the oldest and youngest Stanley, of course, this is also judged by some of Pepper's words just now.
"Yes, sir, please wait a minute." After Jarvis finished speaking, it took about ten seconds before he said again: "Sir, these people don't have any record of meeting Miss Pepper, but the person you screened out just now has been to Stark House once. ”
As an artificial intelligence system, Jarvis has its own set of logical methods, plus it records some of Tony's deeds at home, so he guessed Tony's mind very accurately, first according to Tony's search terms, after no results were found, after adding the keyword 'Pepperpotts', everything is clear.
Tony selectively didn't listen to Jarvis's point-in-the-minute words, but looked at the picture of Stanley in front of him and asked, "Okay, really a very small junior, he's in the 11th grade now?" ”
"Yes, and it's not low in popularity in the school, oh, by the way, he also registered as an actor."
"My interests are really broad enough, do you have any published papers or anything like that?"
"There are no records, do you need me to investigate deeply?" What Jarvis asked was that some hacking techniques would be needed.
"That's not necessary, I'll take a look at this information first." Tony shook his head, then took out some of the information Pepper had given him earlier about the reinforced shoes, sat down on the couch and watched.
"Looks interesting, Jarvis, get the tools ready, I'll see what it's structured in." After a short while, Tony Stark finally got up from the couch, and after stretching, he took a suitcase that Pepper had given him, and walked to his small studio, where he was going to study the foot-strength shoes to see how they worked, and as for whether or not they would break the gadget, he didn't think about it, he always did it first and then thought about it.
