The Super God Journey of American Comics
50. Gift!
After Allen promised Greer to take her on vacation and shopping after a while, Allen hung up the phone.
He has been busy learning magic during this period, and the third generation of the divine body has been completed. It is time to upgrade himself. In addition, the quantum computer built for Stark has been completed, and he has urged it several times to find a time to send it to him. He dialed Stark's phone casually: "Hi! Stark! What are you busy with recently?"
"Oh! Oh! Oh! Look who this is? Mr. Alan Hart, who we have been missing for a long time, finally appears!" Stark's tone was filled with countless resentments. It was rare for him to stay in the laboratory today and not go out to pick up girls.
"Okay! Tony, don't be so resentful! I just went to save the world!" Allen joked.
"Hmm! Save the world? How to save the world? Defeat the big devil?"
"How did you know? Were you peeking behind me?" Alan asked pretending to be surprised.
"Come on! Just find a better excuse! Only children believe your nonsense!" Stark was too lazy to talk nonsense with Allen. "Honestly, where is my supercomputer? You've been delaying it for a year! I almost knocked one out with a hammer! You haven't finished it yet!"
"Use a hammer to knock it out for me and see!" Allen stared. "I've finished it for you and will send it to you tomorrow."
"That's about right! If you don't come here, your stuff will be out of date." Stark was still chattering. "If there was a new supercomputer, the work I was doing would have been completed a long time ago! Now I am at a party, chatting happily with a beautiful woman. As a result, I am still working. You have to compensate for my losses! Ai Lun!"
"Okay! What do you think of compensation?" Allen asked cheerfully.
"Next month! The military is holding an awards ceremony, and I invite you to attend! How about it?" A hint of cunning flashed in Stark's eyes.
"Award ceremony? What award ceremony? Who is the award given to?"
"Of course you're going to give me an award, the 'Patriot' award! How about it? Do you want to go?" Stark asked.
"What am I going to do? You know. Since the accident seven months ago, I have completely severed cooperation with the military!" The last incident was very tense, which embarrassed the military people. . Naturally, cooperation cannot continue.
"Don't you want to repair the relationship? You have to know that the military is actually better at making money. The premise is that you have better products!" Stark persuaded.
"Okay! I will definitely participate when the time comes!" Allen said solemnly: "Thank you! Tony~! I will remember this favor!"
"Uh!... I just want you to attend my award ceremony!" Stark was a little uncomfortable with Allen's thanks. He has an unpleasant personality. Almost no one has ever said thank you so solemnly to him before, which makes him a little overwhelmed.
"Okay! Let's talk tomorrow!" Allen's words made Stark relieved. He really couldn't adapt to Allen's thanks. But think about it, it feels good! A smile appeared on Stark's lips.
Allen knew that Stark regarded him as a friend, so he did this.
His company's stock price fell sharply because of what happened last time. He was busy rebuilding the laboratory and did not care about the company's affairs, relying entirely on Greer to support him. Caitlin was busy with her laboratory, but Ivy helped a lot and invested a lot of money to support the stock price. However, market confidence is gone, the company has lost its major military customers, new sources of profits have disappeared, and the stock price cannot be raised.
As a friend, Stark wants to help and let Allen repair the relationship with the military, which he can do. So he strongly invited Allen to attend his award ceremony. At that time, if we take this opportunity to propose new cooperation, there is a 80% chance that the military will agree.
Of course, there are also personal reasons for wanting to show off his achievements in front of Allen.
This bastard, you did me a favor and paid so much for it!
Allen didn't mind, but was very grateful to Stark. But he really doesn't care about his relationship with the military. The company is still making money, and the profits are high enough to support his research needs. He doesn't live off orders from the military, so it's better to cut off contact now to save trouble.
As for the company's stock price, what does that have to do with him? This is a Wall Street thing. He doesn't value virtual market value. As long as the company is still making money and he can get his dividends, that's fine. I agreed to attend Stark's award ceremony, but I just didn't want to waste Stark's kindness!
In addition, the Hydra force he has recruited has also been developing rapidly recently. Allen gave the use of Zero to some laboratories affiliated with Hydra, which greatly accelerated their research and made a lot of money. The power has expanded a lot, and it has also attracted many forces from other Hydras. How could Allen be short of money and people?
Spears is definitely a capable guy, and he's been doing really well lately. Coupled with SHIELD's cover, he caused a lot of losses to other Hydra leaders.
I heard that they are planning to find an opportunity to hold a meeting to renegotiate their sphere of influence and territory ownership. To prevent conflicts from intensifying, it would be bad for everyone. And the time is, it’s next week!
Allen was looking forward to it. This was a good time to conquer them in one fell swoop.
. . .
The next day, Allen came to the company, handled some of the company's daily affairs, met with Greer, and discussed some of the company's next plans. In the afternoon, I took a plane to Los Angeles and followed three large trucks to Stark's villa on Marbury Beach.
Allen jumped out of the van and saw Stark and his little assistant Pepper standing at the door of his villa. He walked over and said hello: "Hi! Tony! ~ Hi! Pepper!"
"Hi! Mr. Allen!" Pepper reached out and held Allen's hand, then looked at Stark helplessly, ignored Allen, and walked directly to the large truck parked in front of the villa. Apologizing: "Don't mind! Mr. Allen! Tony is just so happy!"
"Don't worry! I know Tony's character! He's just a little resentful! After all, it's my fault, it took too long!" Allen shook his head and let go of Pepper's hand. Watching Stark open the compartment, jump in, and check out the quantum computer that Allen shipped.
After a while, Stark jumped out of the car and walked towards Allen.
"How's it going? My company's products are pretty good, right?" Allen said with a smile.
"Just give it a try! It's still a bit different from the product I designed! It looks very old-fashioned and the workmanship is rough! I doubt how long it can run? It will need maintenance!" Stark complained about Allen's product.
"Oh! Since you don't like it, then I'll take it back!" Allen gestured to leave.
"Okay! Okay! For your sake, I reluctantly accepted it. The money will be sent to you tomorrow!" When Stark heard this, he immediately became anxious and stopped finding fault. Otherwise, if Allen really pulls him back, who knows how long it will take to send him back? This guy habitually bounces tickets, not just once or twice anymore.
"Really don't need to go back and do it again?" Allen tilted his head and said.
"No need!" Stark said firmly.
Pepper watched the two bickering and smiled silently. They were really two kids! "Let the engineer do the rest of the work! Tony! Why don't you buy Mr. Allen a drink?"
"Let's go! I'll buy you a drink!" Tony glanced at Allen and walked towards the villa first.
When he came to the bar, Stark took out a bottle of red wine from the wine cabinet, poured a glass for all three of them, then raised his glass and said: "Congratulations to Allen for finally delivering the product! Cheers!"
"Tony..." Pepper glared. He also raised his glass and said: "Thank you! Mr. Allen! Congratulations on the success of your new product!"
"You're welcome! Miss Pepper! Tony helped me a lot!" Allen raised his glass and touched it with Pepper, then raised his glass to Stark and said, "Thank you! Tony! Cheers!"
"Cheers!" Seeing that Allen didn't accept the move, Stark couldn't do anything to him. He clinked the cup and took a sip. I came to the window and watched the engineers downstairs unloading the supercomputer from the truck and moving it into the underground laboratory. Stark turned to Allen and asked, "What are your next plans?"
"What are your plans? Keep doing my research!" Allen raised his eyebrows.
"Aren't you going to put such a good thing on the market for sale? You will definitely make a lot of money by then! Your company's plight is nothing at all!" Stark said angrily.
This guy is holding gold bricks and begging, I'm really pissed off!
"I don't plan to go public! Just use it between you and my friends!" Allen found a sofa and sat down, crossed his legs and shook his head.
"This is a product that changes the development of the world, but you don't put it on the market for commercial use? Do you know how important this thing is to the development of science and technology in the world?" Stark pointed down angrily and asked.
"I know! But the pressure is also great! This will touch the cake of many people! A large number of high-tech companies in the US stock market will disappear in a short time, causing huge social unrest! Tony! I know, it It plays a great role! But now is not the time to launch it. You are too impatient! My company has only been established for a few years and cannot withstand such a big storm! Only when other companies start to enter this industry on a large scale can we launch it time!" Allen explained.
"Okay! Just handle your matters!" Stark also knew that Allen was right. The rash launch of a black technology product will definitely have a huge impact on society. Nowadays, computer-related industries account for more than 30% of the world's output value. If we give up rashly, great chaos will definitely break out. Even if you change careers, it will be too late. Most of the professional companies will go bankrupt, and no one will be able to bear the consequences.
"I have something for you today!" Allen took out a mobile hard drive from his pocket and handed it to Stark.
Pepper came over, took the hard drive, and handed it to Stark. This is Tony's quirk, not taking things from men!
"What is this?" Stark took the hard drive and looked through it in his hand. Then he walked to a wall, found an interface, and plugged it in.
"You'll know just by looking at it!" Allen shrugged.
A virtual projection appeared in front of Stark. It's the Ark reactor that Allen improved!
