American comics: Starting with Luke the Maker

"Stark is back."

When Ina Sandra said this, her face was full of disbelief.

After more than two months, almost three months of being a missing person, he suddenly returned. Ina originally thought he had died young.

"Is that so?" Luke was still modifying his prototype battle suit, and by the way, thinking about what the unlock conditions for the fourth talent were. This question had been缠绕 (缠绕 - chán rào - entangled) Luke for a long time, and he had wasted a lot of brain cells in the past two months. As for Tony Stark? If Ina Sandra hadn't reminded him now, he would have almost forgotten about this guy.

"Just got the news, he and Colonel James Rhodes are about to return." Ina said with some emotion: "It seems he is indeed very important, to be able to have an Air Force colonel lead people to search for him for two whole months."

"Some people in the military don't want to see him fall. Without Stark, where would they get new weapons? Hammer Industries?" Luke remained noncommittal. With the connections Howard had accumulated, Tony's own talent, and James Rhodes's insistence as a friend, it was not difficult to imagine being valued so much.

"A group of reporters are waiting for him at the airport, do you want to watch the live news?" Thinking that Luke Field had a hobby of watching Stark's live news, Ina asked with a smile.

"I can watch." Although he knew what might happen, watching wouldn't delay anything, so Luke nodded under Ina's gaze.

"White Queen, project the reporter channel information interviewing Stark." Ina Sandra called out, and then casually found a place to work. Anyway, as long as White Queen was there, she could assist her in the office no matter where she was. So she didn't mind taking some time out of her busy schedule to watch the Tony Stark who had escaped death with Luke.

After all, she and Luke had almost fallen to Stark's level, more or less, that saying, empathy.

The picture lasted for an hour before the private plane picking up Stark landed.

When Tony Stark appeared with bandages wrapped around his arms, disheveled hair, and blood scabs on his face, the reporters who had been waiting at the airport began to riot, staging the routine scramble that had to be performed during public interviews with Tony Stark.

"Looks like he's suffered a lot, quite a mess, isn't he?" Ina Sandra, who was dealing with company affairs, looked at the projected picture, looking at the embarrassed man in the picture, it was difficult to equate him with the spirited man who always had a domineering attitude when facing reporters, and the man in the picture who gave people a sense of peace and silence.

"It may also be a reborn transformation." Luke said meaningfully.

However, when that man, who led the reporters all the way to the hotel for the press conference, sat on the steps in front of hundreds of eyes, calmly eating a burger in full view of everyone, suddenly announced a piece of information that shocked everyone into speechlessness.

"Stark Industries will close its arms department and will no longer sell any high-powered lethal weapons in the future."

The first to react was Obadiah Stane, who had a kind face. He almost instinctively stood in front of Tony, while reaching out to pull Tony back and pushing him behind, asking people to take him away, while loudly explaining to the reporters who had recovered and become crazy, trying to salvage the bad influence brought by Tony's words.

Although Stark Industries was not just in the arms business, it also had other aspects of business, but without a doubt, the arms business was the most profitable and the most comfortable business. Even in recent years, under his influence, when people mentioned Stark Industries, the first impression that came to their minds was arms dealer! Military enterprise!

It was conceivable that once Stark Industries' arms department was closed, the public's impression of Stark Industries would collapse. This was too bad for the impact on Stark Industries!

Obadiah Stane did want to lower Stark Industries' stock price, wanting to take the opportunity to absorb more, so that he could truly take control of Stark Industries in the future, but he never thought of really bringing Stark Industries down and making it slump! So after finally getting rid of the group of reporters who smelled blood and went completely crazy, Obadiah Stane rarely lost his temper with Tony, and asked Pepper Potts to take care of Tony during this period and not let him show his face.

Of course, his anger dissipated when Tony revealed the arc reactor on his chest, turning into ecstasy.

...

Haibolon Industries.

Ina stared blankly at the end of this farce, and then suddenly stood up, under Luke's astonished gaze, she rarely cursed, and shouted with heartache: "My stock!"

The news that Tony Stark broke out would obviously trigger an avalanche of Stark Industries' stock. Small volumes could run on the spot, as long as they ran fast, they wouldn't lose much, but how could her volume run? How could it be possible to run away in a short time? The financial market was changing in an instant. Ina had already thought of the terrible days when she would lead Haibolon to become a Stark shareholder and have a seat on the board of directors in the future.

"It's pretty good," Luke said.

"Pretty good?" Feeling frustrated, Ina looked at Luke with dangerous eyes. As someone who couldn't accept failure, she repeated Luke's words in a strange way, but the tone was interrogative.

"Tony Stark is not stupid. Although he, like me, doesn't like managing affairs, it doesn't mean he doesn't understand business at all. I believe in his determination to close the arms department, but I also believe that he must have a trump card in his hand to revive Stark Industries, or even go further. He is the indispensable treasure of Stark Industries, not the so-called arms department." Luke reminded: "Don't forget, his brain can not only be used to research and manufacture weapons."

"You're right. Then it seems this is still an opportunity." Ina calmed down, and suddenly, she looked at Luke seriously: "In that case, becoming a major shareholder of Stark and entering the board of directors is not impossible."

...

Malibu Villa.

Tony Stark was selecting materials for his new steel battle suit. With the strength of Stark Industries, his database had information on most of the materials in the world. And most of these material manufacturers would not refuse the orders given by Stark Industries. He only needed to select, place an order, and receive it.

So when he selected a metal material that he was satisfied with, he asked his intelligent butler: "Who makes this titanium alloy material?"

"Haibolon Industrial Technology." The voice of the intelligent butler Jarvis immediately gave the answer.

"Wow, it seems the little guy is doing well, a little more outstanding than I thought." Tony thought of Luke, and said by the way: "Help me place an order, I need this new titanium alloy material."

"How much does sir want?" Jarvis asked.

"Let's start with a ton." Tony Stark said easily.

"Okay, the unit price of Haibolon Industrial Technology's new titanium alloy TI-0450-ZT material is $125 per gram." Jarvis also replied easily: "The order has been completed."

Hearing this unit price, even the wealthy Tony couldn't help but curse softly in his heart.

"Little vampire!"
