Washington, D.C., Senate Armed Services Committee, hearing on the Armed Armor Defense Program.

"Mr. Stark, let me continue the topic, Mr. Stark? Please turn around." On the stage, a congressman in military uniform was banging a hammer, asking Tony not to talk to the jury behind him. Pepper**.

Yesterday was the announcement of "starkexpo", the Stark Expo.Tony appeared in front of the public wearing the newly completed Mark No. 4.Since revealing his identity as "Iron Man", Tony's popularity has been rising steadily, and even Stark Industries' stock has been rising.

In order to better consolidate the status of Stark Industries, the board of directors and Tony unanimously decided to hold the Stark Expo again after 1974, gathering the most elite and smart people from various countries, companies, and the world to share their knowledge. resources, shared vision.

While leaving the scene of the announcement ceremony, Tony received a summons.Therefore, he is sitting here now.

"Okay honey," Tony replied jokingly, turning his head, prompting a burst of laughter.

The congressman put down the hammer: "Can you please stop looking around?"

"All right."

Hearing Tony's promise, the councilor picked up the report in his hand again: "Do you have a weapon that belongs to you, Mr. Anthony Stark?"

Tony pretended to be serious: "No."

"No?"

"It depends on how you define the word 'weapon'."

The councilor put down the report: "'Iron Man', that armor of yours, Mr. Stark."

"My 'Iron Man' is not a weapon, Mr. Congressman, that may not fit your idea of ​​a 'weapon'."

"Then Mr. Stark, in your cognition, what is your steel suit?"

"It's a prosthetic, a high-tech prosthetic, Mr. Congressman." Tony argued.

The councilor was annoyed by Tony's words: "That's a weapon, Mr. Stark, a high-tech weapon."

"Mr. Congressman, do we really need to care about the definition of 'weapons' and 'Iron Man'? What you should really care about is that our American citizens can live and work in peace and contentment instead of here..."

"What I really care about is whether you can deliver 'Iron Man' to the American people." The congressman interrupted Tony.

Tony held his forehead: "That's nerve-wracking."

It looks like a rather distressed and very resistant expression.

"Mr. Stark, do you want to choose to own 'Iron Man' and refuse to hand it over?"

"Don't even think about it, Mr. Congressman. I am Iron Man." Tony put down his hand and looked directly at the Congressman. "I and my suit are one. When I surrender the suit, I surrender myself. This is no different from selling slaves or selling gold () brass and iron."

The whole room burst into laughter.

The congressman gritted his teeth and suppressed his anger and said: "Listen, Mr. Stark, I am not an expert..."

"A silver expert? Of course you're not. You're a senator, please."

I have to say that politicians have thick skins. Even if Tony said so, the old fox could still calm down: "I'm not an expert in weapons, Mr. Stark. So, we found one."

A man walked out of the jury, with a pair of glasses hanging from the bridge of his nose, his hair combed back shiny, and a briefcase under his arm. He walked with a pompous and fart. It was Justin Hammer.

"Where is the weapon expert? Why didn't I see it? Mr. Hammer, can you please don't take other people's seats?" Tony saw Hammer sitting down, holding his nose with one hand, and the other hand seemed to chase away flies waving like

"Mr. Justin Hammer is the weapons expert we invited, and he is also the military's current main arms supplier."

Tony covered his mouth and nose with one hand, as if he didn't want to breathe the same air as Hammer: "I noticed Hammer when I came in, and I thought I asked him to perform a unicycle after the meeting for fun."

"I'm not as talented as you, Anthony." Justin forced a smile.Compared with the congressman, his acting skills are not good enough, "Maybe I'm not a genius, not a weapon expert. So who is the most worthy of this title?"

"Your father, Howard! Howard Stark!" Hammer's voice rose as if he was performing the last part of a drama.

Hammer held the microphone and began to speak endlessly, so annoying that Tony picked up his mobile phone and began to browse the web boringly.

It has to be said that Justin Hammer is really inferior to being an arms dealer. He should be a big leader, the kind who can give speeches every day.I really don't know how he can say so much nonsense off script.

"...God bless 'Iron Man' and God bless America." Finally, Hammer finished his speech.

Tony's chin slipped from the palm of his hand, as if he had just woken up: "It's finally over, I fell asleep."

Senator Stan tapped the hammer, and silence was restored in the courtroom: "I invite Lieutenant Colonel James Rhodes to enter the conference room."

Rhodes held a report in his hand, which was the threat assessment he had been asked to do for Tony and "Iron Man".Both the military and Tony are satisfied with Rhodes writing this report.

"Lieutenant Colonel, could you please read the fourth paragraph of seven pages of your "Iron Man Arms Complete Report"?" Senator Stan said to Rhodes.His move seemed normal, but it was actually biased. He deliberately found the part of Rhode's report that was unfavorable to Tony, and took it out of context.

Rhodes seemed to be trying to persuade the senator to read the entire section, but the senator refused him to read the rest.

In desperation, Rhodes began to read the manuscript: "Because he does not belong to any definite government department, 'Iron Man' poses a potential threat to national security and rights."

"But Mr. Congressman, the overall benefits of 'Iron Man' are greater than..." Rhodes wanted to say something else, but was interrupted by the Congressman, who ordered him not to speak.

"Mr. Congressman, if you beg me, I can consider becoming the Minister of Defense." Tony responded to the Congressman for the aggrieved Rhodes.

The congressman was not angry, but directed the people to start playing the video and asked Rhodes to explain.

He claimed that other countries were imitating Tony's Iron Suit for military use.As soon as this move was made, it almost made it clear that if Tony did not hand over his battle uniform, he would be aiding the enemy and sitting back and watching the military status of the United States be threatened.

Tony used the mobile phone to control a few times, and easily hacked into the projection equipment provided by the congressman: "Guys, let me take a look here."

He tapped his finger on the phone, and the words "Welcome, Mr. Stark" were displayed on the big screen.

"Aha, I'm really proficient. Your screen is mine." Tony smiled and swipe on the phone, "I think this should be North Korea."

The photo on the screen was replaced by a video by Tony. The robot that the congressman said was used in the army moved, and fell to the ground as soon as he took a step. The machine gun fired randomly and killed the photographer.

Feeling bad, the congressman hurriedly ordered people to turn off the screen.

"This is Iran."

A steel suit modeled after Tony took off, exactly the same as the photo provided by the congressman.But then, the body of the steel battle suit that lifted off became unstable, unable to control the flight, and crashed back to the ground, and the body was torn apart by the huge force.

Justin Hammer quickly stood up and went to find the power source.He remembered who was next.

"Oh, isn't this Hammer, let's see his performance."

In the video, Hammer is instructing a person wearing a mecha to move his body, and he can lift his legs freely, which seems normal.But in the next step, he turned the mecha around, but the lower body of the mecha didn't move, and the upper body turned 180 degrees, and the people in the mecha screamed.

Hammer finally found the power source, unplugged it, and the screen went black.

The audience fell into silence.The congressman has repeatedly lied and lied, and what he said has no credibility.

"It will take five to ten years for most countries to be built. Hammer Industry, 20 years." Tony did not forget to mock Hammer Industry.

Justin hurriedly explained: "The pilot survived, he survived!" He couldn't bear his life.

Tony stood up, and at this moment, even the congressman who had been confronting him before couldn't say anything.

"You have repeatedly asked me to hand over the battle suit, don't even think about it, I have helped you a lot, no one else can research the steel suit, I monopolize it!" Tony, who was in a bad mood, turned his back to the congressman , left the court.

Instead of continuing to argue with the gang of hungry wolves who are eyeing the suit, Tony thinks it's better to go home and continue experimenting to find a substance to replace palladium.Although he didn't have to worry about his name because of Chris's strange bottle, Tony just wanted to prove that he could solve this problem with his own ability.
