Chapter 111: Tony Stark (2)

Putting aside the discussion of which is more powerful or more suitable, the saber-toothed tiger's idea is very simple, he doesn't know who the person who bought the murderer to let him kill Stark, but the other party obviously has a certain connection and status, maybe the other party can find enough vibranium, and then have enough technicians to complete that appalling implant operation for the saber-toothed tiger. As the CEO of Stark Industries, Stark is obviously more likely to help the Sabertooth Tiger realize his dream than the uncertain buyer, so the Sabertooth Tiger decides to keep Stark alive first. And in order not to be found by those Hydra agents or others, he made a temporary decision and smuggled Stark to Mexico.

As a result of the negotiations, the buyer could not guarantee that he would be able to do what the saber-toothed tiger wanted, which angered the saber-toothed tiger; Stark, on the other hand, agreed after thinking about it for a while, and offered to make a sample of the device that could perform vibranium implantation on the saber-toothed tiger first, to show that he had this ability. This made the saber-toothed tiger let his guard down. In the end, Stark bullied the saber-toothed tiger into being scientifically illiterate, and used the various props and materials in the illegal car modification field to make a device, drove it to beat the saber-toothed tiger, and then flew away.

This 'implanted surgical device' is the original version of the steel suit. The suit was so unstable that Stark began to improve it when he returned to Los Angeles, and the buyer got the design of the steel suit that Stark had left behind in the illegal car rebuilding yard from the Sabertooth Tiger, and made another version, one step ahead of Stark. In the end, the murderer takes the lead in the showdown, and Stark discovers that the other party is Obadai, whom he has always regarded as his uncle.

In the end, Stark escaped from Obadai's 'Hongmen Feast', returned home with the help of his military friend Roddy and his life assistant Pepper, put on a semi-finished steel suit that still had some energy problems, and fought Obadai in a factory of Stark Industries, and finally won. In a later interview with the media, he ignored the persuasion of others at the last moment and took the initiative to admit that he was 'Iron Man'.

Stark's wayward behavior plunged the entire United States and even the whole world into restlessness, but he himself fell silent. He discovers a problem - he discovers from Obadi's relics that Obadai had a close connection with Lex Luthor, who was trying to acquire Stark Industries. Considering that Obaday was bedridden when Lex launched the merger plan, it seemed a no-brainer. But why, at that time, not long after Stephanie took over the Malik family from her father? And Stephanie also became boyfriend and girlfriend with Stark as she wished because of this incident...... Is it possible that Obadius and Lex Luthor's conspiracy was actually involved in Stephanie? First of all, if Lex really wanted to acquire Stark Industries and asked Obadai for help, Obadai would not be able to resist the other party at all. Obadai was originally the acting chairman of Stark Industries, and his salary was basically the highest in the industry, and he also had a second largest share in Stark Industries after Stark, so why should he give Lex a hand? Although the Lex Group at that time was also very powerful, there was still a certain gap between it and Stark Industries! Therefore, the alliance between Obadius and Lex is not necessarily really for the acquisition of Stark Industries, it may just be an illusion created by their joint efforts. The question is, what are they doing this for, in order for Stark's prodigal son to come back and inherit the position of CEO of Stark Industries? To help Stephanie win Stark's favor? Well, that's possible!

Maybe some people will think that Stephanie must be true love for Stark. Not necessarily. Some of you may remember that Stephanie had a conversation with her father when she said "just boyfriend". Maybe this sentence is a bit against the will, but ...... Don't think that all Stephanie has gained over the years is the reputation of 'Stark's girlfriend'. It was also during these years that a considerable part of Stark Industries' weapons were distributed by the Malik family - the sole dealer. Stark looked it up and found that he couldn't find out where the Malik family had gotten their weapons. All he knew was that after the weapons were delivered to Stark Industries, they would be divided into ten or more portions by the Malik family, and then transferred to several short companies owned by the Malik family. Stark waited patiently for several days to track down the location of one of the bears' hidden warehouses, where the weapons should have been transferred, only to find that the vaults were completely empty when he infiltrated in his upgraded steel suit.

This shouldn't be as simple as buying and selling illegally.

That's why Stark hasn't listened to Stephanie's phone call for a few days, and he has just quarreled with her who took the initiative to find her. If that's not enough, there are still some clues. In the short period of time that Stark was captured by the Sabertooth Tiger and did not know his life and death, Stark Industries experienced a large number of personnel transfers. Naturally, the people who benefited the most were Obadai's direct subordinates, but the group of people who were in charge of contacting the Malik family in the past also benefited a lot, and the few who were the least also promoted by half a level. In addition, after Stark's previous battle with Obadi, who was incarnated as the Iron Overlord, Obadai died, and Hydra took the initiative to come forward in the name of controlling public opinion, and made up the reason for Stark that Obadai died on a private jet on the way, so that Stark, who was injured at the time, could recover well. As a result, Stark was about a day late and failed to follow up on the mess left by Obadai, and the positions that had been vacated after a series of kicks, degrades and flattening had been filled by Hydra in the name of quelling the turmoil. No one dared to question it, because they were Hydra, and they claimed to have Stark's authorization. And as soon as Stark tracked it down afterwards, it turned out that those fresh people in the post were more or less related to the ones who had been in contact with the Malik family before!

Isn't that a coincidence?

There were all kinds of discordant voices within Stark Industries at this time, among which the opinion of the board of directors was the largest, followed by the weapons department, because Stark made it clear in the board of directors that he would not hand over the design of the steel suit to the weapons department for improvement and mass production. In addition, the business department, public relations department, etc. also continue to talk about the steel suit, which makes Stark have a sense of crisis that is about to come.

So, in his own name, he coerced the board of directors of Stark Industries to pass a proposal of his: to hold the second Stark Tech Expo after more than 60 years.

The last time Stark Tech Expo was held was in the run-up to World War II, by Howard Stark, Tony Stark's father, who was still a golden bachelor at the time. Not long after that, Howard Stark joined the Manhattan Project of Albert Einstein and others, participated in the research on nuclear weapons, and ultimately contributed greatly to the end of the war. Therefore, this time Tony Stark held the second science and technology expo, which is widely regarded as a conceited psychological problem, and is considered to be challenging his father's position and writing his own historical page. Even Pepper Potts, Stark's long-time life assistant, thinks so.

To be honest, the steel suit does qualify as a nuclear weapon. Even in terms of influence, nuclear weapons bring overall peace through threats, and steel suits can counteract the threat of the former, bringing more comprehensive peace, and steel suits are superior. But Stark really didn't have any idea of comparing himself to his father or even Einstein's group...... Well, perhaps, but only a little bit at most. That wasn't his intention. He originally held this expo to attract attention from all over the world, including those within Stark Industries, through this global event in the world of weapons and technology. He himself took the opportunity to find out the source of the internal turmoil in the company. In the end, maybe he can clear Stephanie's innocence, or maybe he can find out this enemy and destroy it!
