39 Stark's Decline
Tony Stark went to the press conference as soon as he came back.
He had something to say, for the sake of those who died at the hands of Stark's weapons, for the sake of the man who had saved him with his own life, for the sake of his conscience and resentment that was about to die.
“…… I saw my young fellow citizens die in front of me because of my weapons, because I wanted to make them to protect them. ”
He remembered the young soldiers he had just met when he was attacked by terrorists, who were still taking pictures and laughing with him one moment, and the next moment they were slaughtered by Stark's weapons.
Obadaia looked down and looked away.
"I also found that the arms manufacturing industry was comfortable with being irresponsible, and I became a part of it."
"Mr. Stark?" A reporter raised his hand to signal.
"Please."
"What the hell happened to you there?"
Tony walked around and remembered a lot of things.
"I was completely sober and realized that what I had to do with the world was to contribute more than just make weapons that would explode."
Looking at the many reporters, he said: "So I announced the closure of Stark Industrial Weapons, effective immediately, until I decide on the new direction of the company." ”
Oba on the side took Amon with him, and you said that you didn't die, so why did you help as soon as you came back?
Stark has been besieged by Worthington and some smelling sharks enough during this time, and you still have to add fuel to the fire?
What don't arms giants do with weapons, brooms ?!
So he hurriedly squeezed the microphone with a smile on his face, trying to save the scene, but now all the reporters' attention was on Tony, and no one left him at all.
This is definitely the biggest news of the day, Tony Stark actually closed the weapons department of Stark Industries, and an arms dealer stopped making weapons!
"It's a good show, but it's my turn."
Jonathan, on one side, led his colleague to Oba Daiya, and then gave out his own papers.
"Oba and Yastan, you are suspected of reselling weapons, colluding with terrorists, and murder, please come with us."
"Watts?"
Those present remembered that Tony's scalp was tingling with the news.
"Wait, what do you say? Oba Belt Asia colludes with terrorists? Tony asked, grabbing Jonathan, looking incredulous.
Although the terrorists did use his Stark's weapons, he was willing to believe that the terrorists had obtained them by some other means, and not that Oba Daiya had sold them, after all, they were the ones who had watched him grow up.
"We have conclusive evidence that Oba led Astan to sell weapons to terrorists and paid them to murder Tony Stark, who is you."
"No, how could it be...... Oba with you? ”
Tony turns his head to look at Obadaia, only to find that Obadaiah, who is being captured by the other two FBIs, looks like the sky is falling apart - just like the criminals often shown in movies when they are caught.
He took a half-step back and let go of Jonathan, "I'm going to see your evidence." ”
"Of course, we also need to know some details about your abduction."
……
Originally, one of the biggest news stories of the day was Tony Stark's announcement of the closure of Stark's weapons department.
But I never expected that the news was like drinking vigorously, one by one more fierce.
Oba and Estan actually colluded with terrorists!
He was the one who sold the terrorists advanced weapons!
He also bribed the terrorists to murder Tony Stark!
It's over, and the ink may run out of it.

"BOSS, we've already eaten all of Stark's stock, and I'd like to ask if we want to recruit Stark engineers who are likely to change jobs because of this incident."
"Of course, Stark doesn't make munitions, we just pick it up, go and talk to Stark's employees, and those who are willing to change jobs are poached, we have a lot of projects in the future, and we are worried about the lack of manpower."
"Got the boss."
……
Stark's turmoil will be very big, and an executive suggested poaching people, after all, Worthington has been operating on multiple lines and opening so many new projects during this time, and there are really not enough people.
With Warren's approval, he immediately went to operate the digging of the foot of the wall.
After all, Tony Stark has announced the closure of Stark's weapons department, and there is discord within the company, and Obadaia actually bought the terrorists to murder Tony Stark, and the employees of Stark's weapons department should also think of their own way out.
Within a few days, Obadaiya's charges were confirmed, after all, the evidence was conclusive.
Stark Industries' stock plummeted 60 percent due to two bad news, and many people jumped ship to sell, and Worthington went all out.
This has alarmed some discerning people, but few are now able to compete with Worthington in this regard.
After all, there is a hidden organization called the Council of Nine.
Warren mobilized his allies to help him buy Stark's stock, telling them that he was confident that Stark's stock would buck the trend and return to the top after a while, and spoiled them in the energy industry.
Okay, it doesn't matter if we believe it or not, all we want is that you Valentine Worthington owes us a favor and then pay it back with something else.
For example, Worthington Energy, which has just been established for a long time. Because of the advancement of battery technology, this is already a proper giant unicorn, and if it weren't for his boss Worthington, there would have been a lot of investors waving money to invest in Worthington Energy.
Ordinary people can't enter this field at all, but they can't look at such a big cake and blush.
The allies of the Council of Nine are not too optimistic about Stark's future against the trend, and we have helped you now, and we want you to exchange it for a stake in Worthington Energy.
Very good, this is very reasonable, of course Warren agreed to their conditions, anyway, such a big cake in the battery industry is not good to eat alone, cooperation can be a win-win situation.
Time passed quietly.
Stark's stock price plummeted during this time, but Tony Stark still retained an absolute controlling stake.
New entrants such as Lockson also sold their shares to Worthington after a period of holding, and threatened: "We thought Tony Stark would return to the arms industry to stabilize the stock price, but he didn't, and instead of expecting a playboy, it would be better to invest money in places with more potential." ”
So they turned to Worthington Energy, a new formula that has recently made a big breakthrough in battery technology.
The outside world thinks that this is a wise approach, after all, everyone can see Stark's fall and Worthington's rise, and even broke the news that Worthington poached many people from Stark during this time.
But I don't know what Tony Stark did, and the remaining shareholders actually agreed to his nonsense, and it seems that they should have found a new project that can make money every day.
After all, the name of genius is still there.
……
"It's been two months, and Stark's stock price is still falling." Anthony Vanko had a smile on his face that couldn't be hidden.
"They're done."
Ivan Vanko gave a brief evaluation, and then continued to fiddle with the heavy pulse rifle parts in his hand.
Dad had a grudge against them because he was swept away by Stark, and he was very happy to see Stark's decline during this time, and even his mood was much better.
However, he is now more concerned about the parts in his hands than Stark, who is in decline.
The pulse rifle had already been developed, and he was now thinking that since it had such a strong muzzle velocity and kinetic energy, why not get a sniper rifle?
This will definitely be the best sniper rifle ever!
