Chapter 50: Dario Ager
"Roxon was founded around 1932 as an oil-based company. Earlier it was headed by Hugh Jones, a friend of my father, and probably for a while, of course. That's how it is in business, today it is a friend, tomorrow it may be an adversary. But because of an accident, Hugh Jones has been missing for some time.
Roxon is currently headed by a man named Dario Ager, the one who sent us the invitations. I haven't investigated much information about him, it's a bit mysterious. But there is a lot of news about chasing after the wind. It is said that his methods of ascending to the throne are not very glamorous, and they are not worth surprising. There are many bad things that Roxxon himself could not talk about when he started his business. ”
Tony Stark deliberately sat in a business van with Luke Field. They were on their way to Roxon's cocktail party, and Tony Stark was briefing Luke on the information he had about Roxon and its current manager, Dario Ager.
"Really? So you brought security with you? Luke smiled and looked at the front seat of the seven-seater business car, Tony's bodyguard Harpy Hogan, who was holding a metal suitcase the size of a snakeskin bag, sitting on the seat with a serious expression, as if this could be the same as snooker in the driver's seat, as if he could be more professional as a bodyguard. Noticing Luke's gaze in the rearview mirror, Harpy Hogan smiled seriously at Luke's appearance in the mirror.
"No, I'm just used to wearing my suit." Tony Stark looked at his box with Luke's gaze, and then said proudly: "Mark Five, the performance is not superior, folding materials, the defense is not high, there is no external energy and weapons, so the lethality is not high, the only advantage is portability." In the event of an accident, it only takes ten to eighteen seconds for me to be able to put it on. Knock down enemies, get out of danger, or delay waiting for reinforcements. I strongly encourage you to do the same, I don't want to hear that you've been kidnapped one day. Oh, I'm mistaken, you've been kidnapped. ”
"Attempt!" Luke gave a no!
Although both of them sold out of weapons and encountered this kind of bad thing as soon as they got a large order, Tony Stark almost lost his life directly, and he was caught and forced to make his own Jericho missiles for the other party; Although Luke is in a similar script, his vigilance is much higher than Tony's, even if Wallace is not wearing the equipment he made at the time, Luke has other ways to deal with it, which can keep himself and Ina safe.
"Here, what are you going to do after you get there, if you trust me, I can help you deal with that Dario Ager." Tony Stark's words made Pepper Potts in the back seat look at her in surprise, she had been following Stark for so long, and it was the first time that Stark had participated in a drinking party, and she actually took the initiative to take charge of herself.
In the past drinking parties, Tony Stark showed up at most, or even showed his face, and went to play with the beautiful girls at the drinking party by himself, socialized, and spoke, etc., either Obadiah did the work, or she and James Rhodes were on top. If it weren't for the man she was talking to before, she couldn't be more familiar, and she would have thought that Tony had been given a bag.
Although Tony's tone was not gentle, even with his characteristic piercing tone, Luke still heard the kindness in his words. He nodded. He wished that someone would give him these troubles, and the energy team found Stark to cooperate, isn't it also to reduce the trouble, and when the trouble comes, can there be multiple strong partners? After all, his Hebolon is just a company that has just been established for more than six years.
While it's up to the question of whether Tony Stark can be trusted, so far, he's done a good job so far. The two families have worked together to get to this point, and both sides have made a lot of effort and paid their own connections, but in the process, he has not lost the pot that should be resisted, and he has not lost the pressure that should be borne.
Of course, the limelight should be out, and that is also not lost.
The other party is like a fighter who is about to reach the last moment of his life, he is very responsible and brave!
……
Dario Ager is a tall man, with a friendly smile on his face, taking off the sunglasses on the bridge of his nose, greeting Tony and Luke cordially, enthusiastically leading them around the party, and helping them introduce the so-called elites and bigwigs at the party. When he went on stage to give a speech.
Tony Stark approached Luke's ear and circled the venue of the drinking party: "Do you see that?" This is a demonstration! The introduction is all the bigwigs of the energy industry, official enterprises. ”
"I thought you didn't understand this?"
Luke glanced at him in surprise. The glance made Tony feel insulted. His voice was slightly raised: "Boy, I don't care about this kind of thing, it doesn't mean I don't understand it!" It's like I've never managed a company, but if I have to, I can get up and running quickly. But I don't think my cleverness and time should be wasted in these places, you know? ”
"So you choose to waste your energy and time on one woman after another?"
Luke's words made Tony shut his mouth directly. He saw that his little pepper was already approaching him.
Dario Ager's speech was gorgeous, warm and welcoming, with a strong sense of host hospitality. He spoke passionately on stage, and it seems that he has reached a cooperation agreement with Stark and Hebelent today, opening a new chapter in the energy revolution. And the elite celebrities who listened to his speech in the audience also applauded one after another, setting off the atmosphere extremely warmly.
In this elevated environment, the expressionless Luke is like a few forgotten aliens. Although, strictly speaking, they are the central figures of this reception.
"Let's cooperate, believe me, as long as my Roxon joins, all the obstacles you have encountered before will disappear, and all the subsequent troubles that have occurred and have not yet happened can also be handed over to Roxon to solve. We are good at using flexible means to solve all kinds of troubles, whether it is civil, official, or corporate.
Roxon can give a lot of money, all the connections, the most selfless help. What do you think? You have the technology, I have the connections and the money. We work together, and the energy of the entire planetary system will be ours. When the time comes, we may be able to auction off all the ice on Jupiter's moons. We're all going to make a lot of money and wield more power. ”
Dario Ager returned to Luke and Tony's side after the speech and sent an invitation to the two to collaborate.
Luke and Tony looked at each other, and then Tony received the look on you that Luke handed out, he pursed his lips, feeling that he had become more and more of a tool of Luke: "How much share do you want." ”
