Chapter 13 The Great Transformation of Osborne's Industry
This kind of factory with a bit of old-fashioned industrial tough guy style looks really interesting, compared to those high-rise technology companies in the future, at least in terms of practicality, more than a notch.
Norman seemed to be on to other matters, looking at him with an excited expression on his face, as if he had everything ready.
Zhuang Quan stayed here with great interest for a while, and saw Norman get out of the car on the side, wearing a laboratory white coat, "Let's go, I'll take you to see it!" ”
After going through a very complicated formality, the two finally came to this laboratory and saw a group of company directors and a group of military contractors watching here.
"We solved the problem of parallel gliding and gravity balancing!" The Ph.D. in the lab was visibly pleased that he, along with Norman, was leading the research of the entire Green Goblin system.
But the Slocomb General clearly didn't think so, and he asked: "I saw the glider, and I didn't come here for this......"
Then Norman walked in with Zhuang Quan and greeted them first.
If it was before, Norman estimated that he would be nervous about funding and other issues, and then kept explaining, hoping that the military would give him a chance.
But now, he's a lot tougher!
"Welcome, members of the Board of Directors, and members of the Military Observer Group!" "I wonder what else you want to know?" he said. ”
"I want to see the report of the Fitness Enhancement Program!" The general said.
"Of course, General, we have done a lot of experiments, and we are about to ......" The Doctor was explaining when he saw Norman take the initiative to take his words, "General, as I said before, the current human enhancement drugs are still very dangerous, and we can't use him as a test for human experiments!" ”
As soon as this sentence was said, let alone the military, even the board of directors was a little shocked, is Norman crazy? He doesn't want to invest anymore?
"Good!" The general said, "Your company's plan, I never supported, it was approved by my predecessor, and now I can make a choice!" ”
He directly decided, "I'm going to stop your company's funding, and then give it to a company that can interest me, such as the Aeroblaster Humanoid Armor project......"
The army turned and left, leaving only a group of stunned board members.
"Norman? Are you crazy? Max, the old man in a wheelchair, looked at him, "Without research funding, Osborne Industries will go bankrupt!" ”
"Oh, you don't have to wait that long!" Norman said that he had long seen that this group of board members who were not pleasing to the eyes of the corpse vegetarian meal, who only knew profit and earnings, forced him to sign one contract after another, but now, he could get rid of these guys!
"I contacted Discovery Aerospace and they said that they could buy my shares at a very good price, and of course, Osborne Group and Osborne Industries are my family's private property, so they will not be sold together!" Norman said eloquently, "So now, shareholders, I am no longer a member of this company, and our cooperation is over!" ”
"Norman, you didn't have permission from the board!" Max is in a hurry, this is what they were supposed to do, you sold the company's shares, what do you want them to do now?
"I don't need your consent to sell my own shares!" Norman smiled, "I know you're in private contact with Discovery Aerospace behind my back, and now you don't need to, maybe you can discuss the issue of taking over cooperation with Exploration Aerospace?" ”
"Norman, you will be banned from the field of the military industry forever, you will regret it!" Several directors shouted loudly, they were obviously blinded by this fist!
Zhuang Quan was also a little surprised, in the original book, the biggest reason for Norman Osborne's blackening was actually that several shareholders wanted to sell the company to Exploration Aerospace, but now Norman took the lead in selling and caught them off guard.
Now, the shares in their hands can't be sold at a high price!
"Send all former directors away!" Norman said with a smile.
Only then did Zhuang Quan come up, "What a great business trick, Mr. Norman!" ”
He also figured out what Norman had just done!
is worthy of being a business tycoon, and in such a period of time, he has sold his shares at a good price!
Isn't he expressing his meaning to Zhuang Quan? He sold the company, and the meaning of the representative is naturally self-evident, to go all the way to the black on this road!
"But what I want to know is, what do I need?" Zhuang Quan asked, Norman sold everything except the name and land of Osborne Industries, so wouldn't he also be a vain deal?
"Don't worry!" Norman looked at him with a smile, "I specially left the materials and data for this experiment, Exploration Aerospace is not a biological enterprise, they don't want this series of research!" ”
"They have a lot of money, and their biggest idea is to buy out Osborne's military-industrial contract to prevent competition with them!"
Zhuang Quan is enlightened, so the materials in this room have become their private property?
However, seeing that Norman was still unable to hide his loss, he also told Norman a piece of news, "So, what is the current market value of Oscom?" ”
"About $60 billion, what's wrong?" Norman was stunned.
"Then I can also tell you that a smartphone company, in 2018, had a market value of more than one trillion, and in 2021, its highest market value was three trillion!"
Zhuang Quan directly smashed a bombshell, "Moreover, its technology is not as clever as the mobile phone I took out!" ”
"But with it, your Osborne can become a unique darling in the rest of the world!"
"Drink!" Norman Osborne was even a little out of breath for a while, and finally sat down with his arms on the wall, "Mr. Zhuang Quan, I think we need to build a stable and harmonious cooperative relationship!" ”
"Like, where the hell did you come from?"
Zhuang Quan's origin is a bit mysterious, Norman has never seen such a man with future technology, and he walked in front of him with a big grin!
"I'll tell you about it when the time is right!" Zhuang Quan smiled, "What I need is a strong Osborne industry, and I need you to be the largest technology company in the world, so that you can do what I want to do!" ”
"Then you have to wait for me to start these two companies, I only have this little money left in my hands to sell all the money!" Norman said, "Now, this baby needs my full attention!" ”
Zhuang Quan nodded, he also knew this, and in the same way, he also knew how dangerous Norman would be in reality after having these technologies!
His body suddenly disappeared in front of the other party, and suddenly appeared, but he had already taken out something similar to a canned object in his hand, "Technology from 60 years later, G3 Escape Air Bag!" ”
"He can keep you alive in any high-pressure, crisis and terrifying environment, this is my sincerity!"
Norman nodded and took the airbag, "I'll show you my sincerity!" ”
……
"The latest express, Discovery Aerospace announced the acquisition of Osborne Industries, the two largest military contractors have become one, will it only cause adverse changes in the international situation, we invited a doctor of sociology from Columbia University to answer our ......"
Zhuang Quan returned to his home in Peter Parker, Queens, where Ben Parker was watching television.
It was the special news of Osborne Industries' acquisition on television.
"Oh, my God!" Ben wailed, "I just bought stock in Osborne Industries, oh my God......"
