Chapter 30: Stark Goes Bankrupt?

Pepper heard the voice, and became even more excited, and followed the sound into the hospital room, and saw Tony Stark, who was pale and weak lying on the hospital bed, with his hands on his chest, and his heart was about to break.

"Oh my God, Tony, are you okay?"

"Not so good." Tony Stark covered his forehead with his hand and said with a look of shame: "I'm sorry, I messed up again, this time it's a big loss, Stark Industries looks like it's going bankrupt." ”

"It's okay, I'll take care of this, as long as you're okay."

"Ahem~~ It's hard to say." Nick Fury had to jump in and spoil the atmosphere.

"What do you mean?" Pepper asked with concern, and Tony, who was lying on the bed, immediately cast a reproachful look, it seemed that he knew everything.

"I mean, he's going to have to do a full physical examination before he can say he's okay."

"Nope." Tony refused without even thinking about it, "No need, I know all the routines of the hospital, and I can find out a lot of them if I am not sick, do you think Jarvis eats dry food?" My body I know best, what I need most right now, a cheeseburger that gives me strength, gives me joy, pleasure, happy? ”

"I'm sorry, sir." Harpy then came to his senses, "I didn't realize you were calling me, go and go back." ”

Harpy trotted out, and Pepper saw Tony's bright and energetic appearance, let go of his worries, and began to ask the teacher: "Tony, what is going on, why are monsters eyeing our new factory, and why are you building such a big mecha and wearing it to fight monsters?" ”

"Strictly speaking, I was piloting the Hunter One in the cockpit of the head, and I didn't wear it, it was different from the Mark series, and I couldn't wear it on my body......" In the end, he was a science and engineering man, never forgetting his rigorous and meticulous nature, Tony was still carefully correcting the fallacy in her words, but his voice became smaller and smaller, and he finally lowered his head.

"It's for the world, you know I can't let the monsters do whatever they want."

"On that note, I feel like we're on the same page, Mr. Stark." Nick Fury said at the right time.

"Sorry, this is ......" Pepper didn't recognize him, but looked a little scary.

Coulson stepped forward and said, "Please allow me to introduce you, this is the Director of S.H.I.E.L.D., Nick Fury." ”

"Are you ...... with Tony?"

Nick Fury said: "We have the same goal, but we haven't come together yet. ”

Tony sighed and said helplessly, "I said it, I don't want to join your top-secret boy group." ”

"I know, you like to do everything yourself, but what is the result?"

Tony Stark was speechless for a moment.

"Now, without your involvement, I have assembled a powerful team called the Victory Team, and everyone in the team is an elite and has a wealth of experience in dealing with monsters."

"So may I ask, how many monsters did this victory team successfully destroy?"

"Four, and one got away with it."

Tony Stark couldn't help but laugh.

"Sorry, I didn't mean to. Although I'm very busy, I occasionally watch the news, don't you know when I don't know? ”

"What do you know?"

Tony Stark said proudly: "The monsters that were eliminated are all the credit of the mysterious giant, I heard that you also named him Ultraman Tiga, although S.H.I.E.L.D. also appeared on the battlefield, but it didn't seem to play a big role, cleaning the battlefield is very good." Is it appropriate that you put the record on the head of the winning team? Could it be that the big guy with a thin waist and long legs and eyes like light bulbs is also a member of the victory team? Or is there some secret connection between you? ”

"It's none of your business." Nick Fury neither admits nor denies that maintaining a proper sense of mystery in the conversation helps to solidify his initiative.

"If it has nothing to do with me, why are you talking to me so much."

"Do you really not understand, or are you playing dumb there?" Nick Fury asked, "You can't deal with that monster at all." ”

"Who says I can't?" Tony Stark said ambitiously, "If only I had time, I could build a more powerful Hunter Mech, strong enough to defeat him." ”

"And how long will it take? Mr. Stark, how much did it cost you to design and build Hunter One? It's definitely a lot more expensive than your Mark suit. ”

"I didn't count."

As the chairman of Stark Industries, Tony's words are arrogant and justified.

Nick Fury set his sights on Pepper Potts, CEO of Stark Industries.

"Ninety-nine."

Tony spread his hands: "Look, it's not more than a hundred." ”

"It's a bare metal cost, Tony." Pepper poured cold water on him mercilessly, "Not including weapon systems, especially power systems, you used a very powerful ark reactor that can power a city." Do you know what that means? ”

"What?" Tony asked stupidly.

"We're out of money, your new factory and new mech, it drained our cash flow, and in an hour it was destroyed by that monster, and there was not a dime left...... Woohoo......"

The more Pepper spoke, the more sad she became, and finally she squatted on the ground and covered her face and cried.

She has only succeeded as the CEO of this company for less than half a year, and as a result, a top Fortune 500 company has gone bankrupt, and others will not say that Tony Stark spends money lavishly, without moderation, and will only scold her for being the girlfriend of Iron Man who is on nepotism and has no talent in management, where can she be reasonable?

She cried and couldn't fix Tony, originally this rich young man was still thinking about what it meant to him without money, but now everything is thrown aside, anyway, he can't imagine it, he has never been poor in his life.

"Okay, Pepper, don't be so sad, I still have some stocks in my hands......"

"That's not necessary." Pepper suddenly stopped crying, wiped her tears, and regained her demeanor as a capable strong woman in the blink of an eye, "It's just that there is a cash flow problem, give me a few months, and I can still come back to life." ”

"You see, I just said that choosing you as CEO is really the right choice I have made in my life." Tony Stark did not hesitate to praise the beauty in front of him at this time, this sentence really praised both the beauty in front of him and himself.

"But we can't afford to build a new mecha, especially if it's so big, it's best to save a little change in your suit, and prepare for a few months of hard life."

Tony's face immediately fell, his ambition, his ambition, his great cause, would one day be subject to all evil money?

Tony Stark is actually out of money, is the end of the world really coming?

At this time, Harpy Hogan pushed the door in, rushed to the bed with lightning speed, and served a hot cheeseburger with both hands, Tony took it and asked, "Can I still afford a cheeseburger?" ”

"There's no limit to this."

"That's good." He breathed a sigh of relief, then took a bite to the burger: "Then it's not the end of the world." ”
