"Man..."

"What you said may seem very touching, but..."

Erskine's face looked like he was constipated, and he wondered.

"Are you treating me like a three-year-old?"

"Uh..."

Duanmu Ruifeng was stunned for a moment, and then scratched his head in embarrassment, "Maybe... It's a little too hard! ”

"Forget it, I'm too lazy to listen to your nonsense!"

Erskine shook his head, turned to look at Duanmu Ruifeng, and said solemnly.

"I can try to help you develop a life-prolonging potion, but I can't promise you anything."

"And if you really want to do this project, you have to have a lot of financial support, can you really do it?"

Duanmu Ruifeng didn't understand why Erskine had clearly exposed his lies, so why did he agree so happily?

Aren't all the persuasions I prepared in advance useless?

In fact, this matter is not as complicated as Duanmu Ruifeng thought.

The reason why Erskine agreed so happily was that he believed in Duanmu Ruifeng's personality and thought that he would not mess around.

Second, it is also to repay Duanmu Ruifeng for saving his life.

Thirdly, and most importantly, Erskine doesn't really think that life-enhancing drugs really have the possibility of successful research.

Therefore, the excuses prepared by Duanmu Ruifeng in advance can really be regarded as flattering to the blind.

"Of course there is no problem!"

Although he was a little surprised by Erskine's answer, Duanmu Ruifeng still replied affirmatively.

"Maybe you don't know how terrifying the amount of money required for this research will be, it's not something that tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, millions can do."

"This investment is even likely to be hundreds of millions, billions, tens of billions, or even a bottomless pit at all!" Erskine said in a serious tone.

Obviously, he thought that Duanmu Ruifeng had no idea how terrifying this investment in scientific research would be.

"Although I don't know exactly how much money will be invested, I have a certain amount of psychological preparation."

"And where are you going to get all this money from?" Erskine wondered.

He thought he knew a lot about Duanmu Ruifeng, but he really couldn't think of where Duanmu Ruifeng came from.

If the project will be made public, it will still attract investment from the government and the consortium, but it is clear that Duanmu Ruifeng has no plans to do so.

"When Stark Industries was founded, I owned 20 percent of it." Duanmu Ruifeng said confidently.

"Stark Industries..."

Erskine was a little surprised, he didn't expect that he would have a stake in Stark Industries, and it was still twenty percent.

If it is true as he said, then Erskine will have to admit Duanmu Ruifeng's vision.

Stark Industries was founded as an ordinary technology company, but the founder of this company was the best mechanical engineer in the United States and even in the world.

Under Howard's leadership, in just a few years, Stark Industries has become the largest arms supplier to the United States.

After making huge profits through munitions, Stark Industries has begun to enter other high-tech industries such as energy and automobile manufacturing, and now no one can doubt the future of Stark Group.

As long as Howard does not die young, then Stark Group will inevitably squeeze into the ranks of the world's top conglomerates.

Duanmu Ruifeng, which owns 20% of the shares of Stark Group, really has the strength to provide sufficient financial support for this scientific research plan.

Although scientific research requires a huge amount of financial investment, it is also a long-term project.

If you want to achieve the goal of Duanmu Ruifeng, then it is likely to take more than ten years or decades.

There is even a greater possibility that Erskine may not be able to succeed in exhausting his life.

So although Erskine said that the amount of investment will be staggering, if it is spread out every year, the amount is not so much, and 20% of the shares of Stark Group are fully enough to support the research needs.

In that case, what else should he hesitate about?

Although he is not very optimistic about this project, since Duanmu Ruifeng's persistence, coupled with the success of the super soldier plan, he has no worries at all, so it should be to repay Duanmu Ruifeng for saving his life, accompany him for the rest of his life, and devote himself to this brand-new plan.

After getting Erskine's affirmative reply, Duanmu Ruifeng was full of excitement and planned to do a big job, as for the affairs in Europe, he had long forgotten about it.

In the following days, Duanmu Ruifeng would find Erskine from time to time to discuss with him the establishment plan of the laboratory, and strive to complete the purchase of laboratory equipment and personnel recruitment before Erskine recovered.

It's a pity that a phone call from Europe made Duanmu Ruifeng have to put down what he was doing halfway and rush to Europe.

"What the hell is so anxious, I've been very busy lately!"

Located in a military camp in the European theater, Duanmu Ruifeng complained as he followed Carter to the command center quickly.

"It's been so long since Erskine's thing, don't tell me you haven't come out of his death yet! To put it bluntly, you're just trying to be lazy! Carter rolled his eyes and unceremoniously exposed his lie.

"Then I can't have anything else to do?" Duanmu Ruifeng is still dead and the duck has a hard mouth.

"Duanmu, Steve needs your help!" Carter stopped, looked at Duanmu Ruifeng and said solemnly.

"What's wrong?"

Seeing Carter's serious tone, Duanmu Ruifeng also put away the casual expression on his face.

Although Duanmu Ruifeng used a question sentence, in fact, after hearing Steve's name, he already had some guesses about things.

"The 107th Division encountered an attack by **, hundreds of people, including Steve's good brother Bucky, were captured, and the place where ** held the prisoners was located behind the defensive line, and there were layers of strong defenses along the way, so..."

"So you want me to use the portal to take Steve to save people?" Duanmurui air duct.

"Yes..."

"Now only you can do it, Colonel Phillips can't agree to let Steve take the risk for the sake of a few hundred captives!"

Carter is right, now Steve has almost been promoted as a household name American symbol, and has a non-negligible influence on the morale of the people at home.

If something happens to Steve at this time, it will definitely deal a huge mental blow to the allies and the people at home.

From Phillips's point of view, Steve was worth far more than a few hundred prisoners of war, and it was only natural that the rescue plan would be rejected.

"So this operation didn't have Phillips' authorization at all, it was completely private, right?" Duanmu Ruifeng looked at the soldiers coming and going around him, and said helplessly.

"Not bad!"

"You should know that if I did, Phillips would go crazy!"
