Chapter 47: Competitors (I)
When General Ross heard this, he jumped up, hugged Tony, and patted him on the back, "Oh my God, that's great news, Tony, you're such a good person." ”
Although he had the help of public opinion promised by Bruce Wayne before, so that General Ross did not become a stinky street character, he already appreciated it very much. After all, this Mr. Wayne is just a rich man who does not have much power in military and political circles.
And the Lou Zi he stabbed this time was too big, and the internal investigation and handling were inevitable, and even the military couldn't hold it, so the review committee formed by the Congress took over.
At this point, General Ross knew that his future was bleak, and these people would not believe what public opinion said, they only valued interests.
General Ross's past friendship was also useless, so he could only spread his hands and say, "We are very sorry, if we need help, we will definitely next time."
Bitches and politicians are the same, they mix oil with you when they talk about money, and when you need them to pay a little, they turn their faces and don't recognize people.
This time, the review committee actually let him go, which is very unbelievable.
He looked at Tony with some doubts, although the Stark family has some power and has a good relationship with some members of Congress, but he doesn't think Tony will bother to help him with this matter.
"Don't look at me like that." Tony spread his hands and said, "I'm not helping you, it's someone else." ”
"Can you introduce me to this kind gentleman?" General Ross asked rhetorically.
"This gentleman is busy, but I can help you convey your thanks to him." Tony smiled and said, "Besides, the armor I showed you is also the masterwork of this gentleman, are you interested?" ”
General Ross nodded hurriedly, "I'm very interested, let's leave now." ”
The two of them walked out of the bar chatting and laughing, and got into a limousine one after the other and drove away.
Outside the bar door, Coulson watched as Tony Stark took General Ross away with a bewildered expression, and reluctantly called Director Nick Fury to report the situation.
The director of the boiled egg immediately understood, and said helplessly: "This must be the ghost of Bruce Wayne, who co-opted General Ross in advance." ”
"So what do we do?" Coulson asked.
"How's your Arctic scientific research team?" The director of the boiled egg suddenly asked.
"Everything is normal, the team has almost been formed, and the funds have been allocated." Coulson replied, then was silent for a while, and asked, "What's wrong, Mr. Director?" ”
"Nothing." Lu Dan sighed, "It seems that our Mr. Wayne still cares about his old friend, and your next work will be focused on the Arctic project." ”
"What is Mr. Wayne looking for?" Coulson asked, a little confused.
"Steve Rogers disappeared in the Arctic." The director of the boiled egg said lightly, and then hung up the phone.
Coulson paused for a few seconds, then reacted, his face showing a complicated expression.
……
At a secret shooting range outside New York, General Ross watched a tactical show up close.
The PVA warrior wearing the individual exoskeleton armor showed the audience the performance of the armor in all directions, leaving everyone stunned.
"This ...... How much does this stuff cost? General Ross asked, grabbing Tony's arm.
"Eight million dollars." , and then a voice came from the side.
General Ross turned his head to look and saw that it was Bruce Wayne, and he was stunned for a moment, "Why are you?" Is this thing yours? ”
Qin Rongshuai nodded as a matter of course, "Of course it's mine." How about the latest masterpiece of the Umbrella Group at this time, the individual exoskeleton combat armor? ”
"It's amazing!" General Ross nodded excitedly, "I have never seen such a good weapon, an ordinary soldier can turn into a super soldier when he wears it. ”
"Not to mention a super soldier, wearing this set of armor can top the combat power of three super soldiers." Qin Rongshuai said with a smile, "The combat effectiveness of this suit of armor has already been fought in the previous battle with the abomination, and you came late at that time and didn't see the actual combat effect, but it doesn't matter, we still have the video from that time." ”
Saying that, Qin Rongshuai snapped his fingers, and immediately a staff member led General Ross to watch the actual combat video of the battle armor, leaving only him and Tony standing in place.
"I have to say that this thing still has a lot of advantages." Tony looked at the exoskeleton and said with emotion, "It's cheap, sturdy and durable. ”
"Your armor is good, I like it too." Qin Rongshuai also praised by the way, "How is your armor improvement plan?" ”
"It's going well, I've completed the design of the main armor, and the rest is to dock with the standard interface, plug-in module, power module, etc." Tony began to explain without stopping.
"Once you've solved these problems, remember to build one for me." Qin Rongshuai is very happy with Tony's progress, although this genius is a little cynical, but he is extremely talented, and his hands-on ability is also first-class, as long as he has an idea, he will soon come up with a finished product.
"What do you want armor for?" Tony frowned, not because he was worried about his skills leaking, but because he was afraid that this uncle would steal the limelight after taking the armor.
"Of course I'm going to improve my product." Qin Rongshuai rolled his eyes, "I always have to upgrade." ”
Tony was a little stunned, and looked at Qin Rongshuai incredulously, "You actually have my technology to upgrade the technology of your own products, how can you say this confidently." ”
"Why not?" Qin Rongshuai patted Tony's shoulder kindly, "The water is very deep here, you leave me who can't live here, let my uncle come." ”
"What a mess of you." Tony looked at Qin Rongshuai with a confused expression.
"Don't worry about the cost of technology patents, I will give money."
"I'm not talking about money or not!" Tony yelled, "You can't copy my armor in the original, you have to make it in batches, even more so if you want to!" ”
"Come on, Tony, my people don't like to be showy." Of course, Qin Rongshuai understood Tony's concerns, and was a little speechless at these concerns, "Do you know that the Ministry of Defense has been looking for people to copy your armor everywhere recently?" ”
"What?" Tony froze and said a little dazed, "I haven't heard?" ”
"You've locked yourself in the lab for too long, and you don't know anything about the outside world." Qin Rongshuai shook his head with some hatred, "You just hand over the company to Little Pepper, you are really not a good CEO." ”
"That's exactly what I mean." Tony nodded, "I think Pepper does have a set of management companies, so I authorized her to handle the company's affairs. But I haven't heard anyone talk about it, do you have any reliable sources of information? ”
"The Department of Defense is in frequent contact with Hammer Industries and the Osborne Group." Qin Rongshuai sighed, "They also took a fancy to this business. ”
