Infinite Possession of Beauty
Chapter 17 Tony
Although, there were some eager thoughts in his heart, so Li Ran couldn't wait to run to Tony Stark right away to make a wave of fame.
However, in contact with the reality, Li Ran quickly calmed down.
Although Tony Stark at this stage has not yet become the Iron Man who saves the world, his two identities, the chairman of Stark Industries and the most famous playboy in New York, still attract attention to his every move. .Not to mention, his father Howard Stark was one of the founders of SHIELD.
If there were no S.H.I.E.L.D. agents around Tony Stark, Li Ran would not believe him if he was killed.
Moreover, Li Ran boldly speculated that if Tony Stark did not take the initiative to go to Afghanistan to test his latest weapon results in the future, he might not have been found by Obadea Steny and suffered all kinds of things in the future. Dilemma, of course, maybe there will never be Iron Man.
Having said so much, did Li Ran really give up looking for Tony Stark.
Of course not. With the previous examples of Daredevil and this Hulk incident, Li Ran has clearly realized the legendary gap between the characters in the American comics and ordinary people.
This gap may not be obvious in the current 1,000-point legendary [Black Iron Treasure Box], but in the future, it will be bronze, silver and even gold treasure chests. If you think about the legendary value of 0.03~0.05 from New Yorkers, it is obvious. It is quite unrealistic.
What's more, the appearance of Hulk this time also gave Li Ran a sense of urgency subconsciously.
The appearance of the Hulk reminds Li Ran to some extent that the time is not far from the first New York war of the Avengers.
That kind of battle is not something he can handle with the two D-level cards in his hand.
It seems that the steps should be expedited.
"James, where are you?"
"It's nothing, I'm out for a drink."
Li Ran turned his head, looked at the beautiful golden color in the bedroom, and then smiled back.
...
The next day, most of the New York media released follow-up reports on the latest events in Manhattan.
Under the influence of obvious military intervention, the original Hulk riot in Manhattan turned into an ordinary gas pipeline explosion accident.
Afterwards, although a small part of the media, such as the Horn Daily, was chasing the truth, it was obviously impossible to achieve the big picture.
"I swear, I really saw it. The green monster appeared in the cinema. I also specially left the movie ticket of which day as evidence."
"A Chinese man, he kicked such a big, wrong stone away with a single kick. You can't imagine how cool the situation was at that time. For this reason, I went to Chinatown to worship a Kung Fu master. Kungfu, although he is Korean, he teaches karate courses."
The ripples of the Hulk incident, apart from bringing a little bit of legend to Li Ran, there seems to be no more discussion.
Even a few days later, the forgetful New Yorkers will forget what happened in Manhattan and return to the original life.
...
"Hogan, remember to wash the car for me. There is an important date waiting for me in the evening."
Throwing the key into the driver's hands, Tony walked into the Stark Industries building with a cynical smile.
"You're late, Tony." Piper said to Tony, looking down at the time in his hand.
"Everyone is already waiting for you in the conference room."
"Hey, relax Little Pepper, you are a little too nervous, and it's not a very important meeting. In fact, even if I don't come, you can complete this meeting for me."
Tony's trusted words made Pepper Pepper smile subconsciously, but then he converged: "No, you are Tony Stark. The shareholders of today's meeting came here specially for you."
"In this case, there is no need to worry, after all, superstars are always the last to appear."
"Tony..."
"Okay, okay, I admit it." Seeing that the expression on Pepper's face changed a little, Tony reduced his hippie smile, and replied solemnly: "I overslept."
"But I have already told Jarvis the time for the meeting."
"I know, so I deliberately told Jarvis to call me one hour late. After all, you know I slept late."
"I think it's late for a date."
"Wow, Pepper, or you know me." Seeing Pepper's face getting more and more ugly, Tony changed the subject: "Say, what meeting is today?"
"It is about the changes in the company's stock price during this period. The stock price of Hanmer Industries has recently shown an upward trend. It is said that one of their latest products has been selected by the military and will become a common equipment for a special unit, so shareholders have some I am worried that Stark Industries’ stock price will be affected."
"Just because of this?"
"Shareholders need some confidence, Tony."
"Ok."
Facing Pepper's request, Tony shrugged and nodded in response.
After the two smiled at each other, Tony straightened his expression and pushed open the door of the meeting room.
Walking into the meeting room, Tony first saw the face of Obadea, he nodded subconsciously, and then turned his head to look at the shareholders in the meeting room, and said in a relaxed tone.
"Sorry, there is a traffic jam on the road."
...
"Mr. Stark, what do you want to explain to us for the fact that Stark Industries has not launched any new products for a while? Some of our shareholders agree that your recent performance has been too arrogant. There is reason to suspect that you have not spent much time on the company’s products during this period of time."
"There's nothing to say, Mr. Liszt. In fact, if you and your friends think there is something wrong with Stark Industries, you can sell your own stock. I personally have no opinion at all."
Tony's tough answer not only made the shareholder who asked the question look ugly, but Pepper who was standing behind him also slightly changed color.
"Tony."
In the end, it was Obadea, a shareholder and his father's former friend, who spoke to Tony's behavior.
Looking across the people in the conference room, Tony immediately said: "I know that the shareholders of the company have had some opinions on my recent performance. I came here today because I wanted to give some advice to some people. Just wake up, the reason why Stark Industries can develop to its current status is not based on the stocks in your mouth or other Balabara things..."
"It's this."
Tony pointed to his head and looked around.
"In addition, I already have a general idea about the company's latest products. I think it shouldn't be too long before you will see it."
