Chapter 43: Unexpected Trouble
After half a ring, Simon Williams spoke up: "Ruilin, where is Ambrera's current research on spaceships?" ”
Everyone looked at Kells, eager to know what he would say.
Seeing everyone's eyes, Kells said truthfully: "It's far away, for the time being, I can only leave the earth and walk around the earth, and no further away." ”
Hearing Kells say this, everyone was both encouraged and disappointed. Being able to leave the earth is a good start, but being able to sail nearby, not being able to stay away, is not a joy.
Kells looked at Obadiah Stan and said, "Stan, can we talk about Stark Industries now?" ”
"Stark Industries is researching artificial intelligence, and if the research of virtual intelligence is successful, I believe everyone will be able to see the prospects."
Speaking of which, Obadiah Stan looked at Kells and Lawrence Robertson and said, "Whether it's a spaceship or a robot, with virtual intelligence, it's definitely easier to accomplish, am I right?" ”
Hearing Obadia Stan's words, Lawrence Robertson's eyes lit up, and he smiled and invited, "Stan, whether this alliance can be successful or not, how about we find a private time to talk?" ”
"Of course it's fine!" Obadiah Stan agreed without thinking, and looked at Kells.
"You don't have to look at me, I don't need to!" Kells waved his hand and refused, if he didn't look down on USR's robotics research, he could have intervened, and Ambrera was not without artificial intelligence.
Obadiah Stan froze for a moment, then understood, and nodded understandingly.
"Pioneer's ionic energy research, USR's robotics research, Osborne Industries' human body-enhancing potions, William's innovative energy power operator, Ambrera's spaceship, Stark Industries' artificial intelligence. Let's talk about these six projects. ”
Obadiah Stan looked at the crowd and waited for their decision.
While everyone was pondering, Natasha whispered to Kells, "Ambrera is secretly studying spaceships, how come I don't know?" ”
"How do you know?" Kells laughed for a while, and whispered, "You used to be just a secretary, how could this kind of project let you know." ”
"The problem is that when I was in charge of financial proofreading, I didn't find out how much money was spent in this area." Natasha raised an eyebrow.
Kells smiled and asked, "When you were still a secretary, did you have any money for the Gene Enhancement Solution?" ”
"Ambrera has another channel?" Natasha said thoughtfully.
Kells smiled and didn't answer. Although he is the absolute majority shareholder of Ambrera, not all the shares are in his hands, and he is still responsible to the board of directors, so many projects cannot use Ambrera's name.
However, after all, he is the absolute majority shareholder, and with the help of his mutants, Ambrera can be said to be completely controlled by him, and he is doing all kinds of research through Ambrera's channels, even other shareholders don't know. As long as he doesn't let those shareholders see the problem in the accounts, they won't come to trouble at all, and they don't have that power.
"Everyone!" Aldrezie Killian tapped his fingers on the table, and waited until everyone's eyes shifted before he spoke up: "Pioneer Technology's ion energy research, if it succeeds first, we will have endless funds." At that time, not to mention the other five projects, even if there are five more, we can afford it. I propose that we be the first to study ionic energy. ”
Norman Osborne shook his head and said, "The change at the ionic level will definitely not be so simple. I don't know how AIM's research is going, but it's definitely not going to be satisfying. If we had studied this first, we would have probably gotten into a quagmire in the beginning. ”
Hearing Norman Osborne say this, Alderetsi Killian looked at him with an unhappy face and said, "What about Osborne Industries' human enhancement potion?" Is it so easy to make the human body tenfold stronger? If it succeeds, everyone will become superhuman, and I know that this kind of thing is impossible. ”
"Osborne Industries' research on human enhancement agents has reached a critical juncture, and as long as there is a large amount of financial support, it will definitely succeed in a short period of time." Norman Osborne did not admit Aldrezie Killian's words, and spoke to the people with confidence.
"How short is a short time? Ten years or eight years? Aldrezie Killian asked with a sneer.
"Boom! Boom! Boom! ”
After tapping his fingers on the table for everyone to see, Kells spoke up, "Several, there's no point in arguing about which one to study first. The first thing we need to do is to make sure that everyone in the room is willing to join forces, and then let's study the details. ”
"Ruilin is right, let's make sure of this first!" Obadiah Stan agreed.
Someone proposed: "Where can this kind of big event be determined in a short period of time, I think we should all go back and think about it, find a time to get together again, and then make a decision, what do you think?" ”
"That's a good proposal, I agree!" Simon Williams, who was not in a hurry, immediately spoke out in agreement, just giving him time to think about the pros and cons of joining forces and confirming whether they were necessary.
"I agree, let's find another time!" Others agreed.
With the approval of the three people, slowly some people began to agree, and after a while, more than half of them agreed with the proposal, giving everyone time to think and make a choice next time.
"Okay, how about I'll contact you again in a week?" Obadiah Stan didn't think about settling everything today, so he didn't regret it, and asked everyone out loud.
Seven days is not a short time, and except for Norman Osborne, who is in a hurry, everyone else has no opinion. It is a pity that Norman Osborne is only one man, and his opinion is of no use in the slightest, and he himself knows it, so he does not even say it.
After deliberating, the group left Obadiah Stein's underground conference room and returned to the surface.
At this moment, the auction on the ground has only ended, and most of the guests are chatting and dancing.
Arriving at the hall, Natasha said to Kells, "Kells, I'm a little tired, I want to go back first!" ”
"Tired?" Looking at Natasha beside her, Kells couldn't see that she was tired at all, shook his head and smiled: "I see that you are not tired, but want to report the news that we are going to join forces to the above, right?" ”
"Since you know, I'll go first!" After listening to Kells's words, Natasha stopped pretending and was about to leave as she spoke.
"What are you anxious about!" Kells reached out and took Natasha's hand, and said a little unpleasantly: "I said, I invited you to come to the party tonight, and you left like this, it's too much to say, right?" ”
"And what do you want?" Natasha withdrew her hand.
"At least you have to dance with me, right?" Kells pointed to the dancing area in the hall.
"Just a song!" Natasha looked at Kells seriously, and didn't refuse, anyway, the song didn't last long.
"OK, just a song!" Kells nodded in agreement, not letting her dance a few more songs with her.
When the old song ended and the new one began, Kells and Natasha walked over and danced together.
While dancing, Kells asked, "Natasha, can you tell us why you joined S.H.I.E.L.D.?" ”
"If you want to join, you can join, why not!" Natasha replied casually, not stating the real reason.
Although he knew it was impossible, Kells still said, "How about you leave S.H.I.E.L.D. and join my Ambrera?" ”
Natasha laughed when she heard this: "I won't be ****** in S.H.I.E.L.D., and in Ambrera, I still have to deal with your ****** every day, do you think I might join Ambrera?" ”
"Don't say it so ugly!" Kells pretended to smile bitterly and said bitterly, "Natasha, can't you feel my sincerity for you?" ”
Natasha said with a serious face: "I'm sorry, I didn't feel it at all. ”
"Father, urgent contact!" Just as Kells was about to reply, a small image of a white queen appeared on the watch he wore on his wrist.
"I'm sorry!" Smiling apologetically at Natasha, Kells headed outside. He knew that if there was nothing important, Queen Bai would not use this to contact him.
Walking outside to a deserted place, Kells asked aloud, "White Queen, what's going on?" ”
"Father, it's Japan's CEO Wesker who contacted you!" The White Queen appeared in front of Kells in the form of an image.
"Wesker?" Kells frowned slightly, Wesker was in charge of the project in Tokyo, Japan, and if there was no big incident, he would never contact him. And the big thing over there is nothing more than the success of the experiment, or the failure of the experiment, which will cause serious consequences. Either way, though, it's Kells' purpose, so he's in a pretty good mood.
"Did he say anything?"
Bai Hou replied: "It's about Ms. Emma, and the specific CEO of Wesker didn't say what it is." ”
"Emma?!"
Hearing that it was about Emma, Kells felt that something was wrong, and immediately asked Bai Hou to go back first, while the others walked towards the hall.
"What, you're in trouble?" Natasha, who was at the edge of the hall door, asked aloud when she saw Kells approaching.
"It's troublesome, you talk to Al, I'll go back first. As for you, I won't send you, you can go back yourself! Kells said without waiting for Natasha to reply, turning and leaving.
