Osborne Megacorp

"You mean... joint development?"

Kapoor was dubious.

Who doesn’t know who gets the space resources? Joint development has always been bullshit. If joint development can really happen, it will be a bullshit space race.

"Develop together." Harry nodded.

"NASA takes the lead, and space agencies from various countries contribute manpower and technology to jointly develop Mars. Isn't this quite an ideal thing?"

Kapur thought for a moment and said: "...Wait a minute, I also hope that all countries can jointly develop, but this is simply fantasy. Giving up our advantages and developing together with others. By then other countries will have updated their technology and will be in power." The Party shall not be..."

Halfway through, Kapoor stopped and Harry looked at him with a smile.

Well said, keep going.

"Next year the person who will be in power will be a nonpartisan president," Kapoor murmured.

Harry is not a serious American, to be precise, he is an "internationalist".

Unification of the world can create more value than division - after all, Osborne did not make his fortune by selling weapons.

"Besides, we all know that we are not the only intelligent life in this vast universe, so why are we still obsessed with killing each other?"

Harry spread his hands.

"But how are you going to face the offensive from other parties? Four years is a short time..."

Norman is a nonpartisan president, and his administrative strategies can ignore the ideals of the two major parties and the interests of the groups they represent, but this does not mean that the other two parties will not criticize him for this.

But as long as the days get better and better, no problem is a problem. The United States is already in the worst period in history, and no matter how it goes, it will always be upward.

Harry interrupted: "Wait a minute, I thought you were here to discuss aerospace issues. So what do you think?"

Kapoor stood up and walked back and forth in the conference room, stopping from time to time to take a closer look at the "colonial ship". Idealism and another doctrine kept fighting in his heart.

But it is obvious that Mr. Kapoor has more idealism.

Kapoor stopped and said slowly: "...There is no doubt that if everyone can really put aside their differences and come together, Mars will be just a small stumbling block on the road to human spaceflight."

That's right.

"Then, I think you know how to communicate with your director when you go back."

"I'll have to think about that."

After seeing Kapur off, Harry sat in the conference room and turned his chair.

The construction of the space station has been completed - he still has one system task to complete. In theory, he only needs to fly up and complete the task.

But this matter can be slowed down. The general election will start in three months, and there is one more thing that will happen during this period.

That is the attack on the United States by the fake Mandarin.

The attack was actually planned by AIM's Killian, all to kill the president and demonstrate his terminal virus.

The development of the Extremis virus actually has something to do with Hydra. This may be why Killian wants to kill the president.

According to the original plot, the final attack was scheduled for Christmas Eve, when the general election should have just ended and Norman would be taking the oath of office in January next year.

The original work may be because President Ellis was re-elected, and Killian's goal was clear, Ellis, but now it is obvious that he has encountered a replacement.

Harry could indeed accuse Killian in advance and catch him before he committed a crime.

But this incident is also an excellent opportunity to promote Osborne products. It is best to be one step ahead and stop the attack.

Cruel as it may be, the attack could still be used as a political weapon.

The Vice President is involved in this matter, and there is even a video of AIM conducting desperate virus testing within the congressional network. Once Norman comes to power, this matter can also be used as a weapon for him to unplug Hydra or some hostile forces.

You can even pull out the tongues of disobedient people, or at worst, label them as a K-attacker.

This thing is really... cruel, Harry smiled to himself.

The next day, a bomb attack occurred in Tennessee.

Only Harry, who had read the script, knew that the attack was related to AIM's Extremis virus.

But he has to pretend to be someone who knows nothing.

After expressing condolences to local victims and people, Harry recommended ctOS to the governor and local officials.

The governor and local officials decided to adopt the ctOS defense system based on popular will and Osborne's sales pitch.

After all, this is something to protect against aliens.

Within a few days, officials announced the introduction of ctOS across the state.

"I am very happy that Tennessee has welcomed ctOS, a city optimization system with outstanding achievements."

"Not only that, but the state will be connected to completely clean fusion energy - which I know a lot of people have been asking us to do."

Harry, Max, the local governor and several mayors stood together and took a group photo.

Max is now a serious star engineer, and he has gained a lot of confidence. I heard that he has even found a girlfriend.

As for Electro?Probably can't be seen.

Electric power will be pulled from Illinois and new technologies will be used for ultra-high voltage long-distance transmission. Max likes to study this very much and has been forgetting to eat and sleep.

What a nice guy, Harry just loves this type of hardworking employee.

While thinking about it, Harry thought about giving him a bodyguard or something. Max's job was still very important.

A reporter asked: "Mr. Osborne, we all know that ctOS only works well in cities, but Rose Hill, which was attacked this time, is just a small village. Will it be effective?"

Harry turned on the holographic bracelet: "This is a good question, but in fact, the new version of ctOS can achieve very good monitoring effects in rural areas - through satellite. This is the case in New York State."

The bracelet displays a map of New York State.

"In cities, there will be many public facilities for ctOS to deploy, but not in the countryside. The new version of ctOS is connected to the Osborne Group's latest satellite network 'Hermes Flying Shoes', which means there are not so many to deploy. The outskirts of the facility can also be protected by ctOS."

"Hermes flying shoes? Are they those satellites that Osborne just put in the sky?"

Harry nodded: "Speaking of which, I haven't officially introduced these satellites to you. They have quite a few functions - communication, positioning, weather observation, etc."

"In fact, I plan to launch more satellites for network communications so that network signals can be covered all over the world."

The reporter continued to ask: "Global coverage network? How many satellites will this require?"

"As for this problem, a friend of mine thinks that more than 4 satellites may be needed. However, it is obvious that such a large number of satellites will cause a lot of problems, so I am still making technical upgrades to try to reduce this number."

The reporter quickly wrote: Osborne wants to launch 4.9 satellites into low-Earth orbit!

"In short, Osborne's satellites can assist ctOS to ensure your safety even in small areas. When you choose Osborne, you choose safety."

"Finally, don't forget to vote for Norman Osborne."

After canvassing a wave of votes, Harry ended the press conference.

The attacks are happening all over the states. With a little publicity, they will soon be rushing to deploy ctOS.

After all, other people's crime rates are ridiculously low, and if you have gun battles every day on your territory, or even self-destruction attacks, then this governor and mayor will not be able to survive.
