Yan Shao really thought about the name Reed Richards in his head for a while, but the names Mister Fantastic or Fantastic Four were very popular.

Yan Shao was a little puzzled: "That's weird, why did this guy come to me?"

He and Reed had nothing in common. He was engaged in business and Reed was engaged in scientific research. The two of them basically couldn't get along.

However, the famous Mr. Fantastic came running over, and it was a bit unreasonable not to meet him. After thinking about it, Yan Shao nodded to the acting secretary Daisy: "Please invite him in."

"Okay, sir!" After saluting Yan Shao, Daisy stepped hard on the floor and walked out of the office like a soldier.

Yan Shao was also a little helpless about Daisy's out-of-the-box character. Fortunately, the girl's nature was not bad. Apart from the fact that she got mixed up with Dave and the others recently and formed some kind of superhero group, there were basically no big problems. .

As for safety...

For Daisy's safety, Whiplash, the 'old father', racked his brains and used limited resources to get her a lot of self-defense equipment. The equipment alone is as good as a low-end version of Iron Man. Coupled with Daisy's own superpowers, as long as she doesn't encounter a Heavenly Father-level existence, even the Hulk can survive for a while and is basically safe.

When Yan Shao was wondering why Mr. Fantastic was looking for him, there were footsteps outside the door. After a while, Daisy led a man who was not very handsome, but could tell he was wise at a glance. Behind him was a bald man. He is a big man with a somewhat fierce face, but you can tell that he is not a bad person.

"You must be the famous Mr. Reed Richards." Very friendly, Yan Shao walked out from behind the desk and shook hands with Reed Richards.

"Where, where..." Reed Richards, who had encountered many obstacles, was a little flattered and introduced the big man behind him. "This is Ben, my good friend and colleague."

Yan Shao also shook hands with Ben, and his friendly attitude gave the two of them a good impression of him, especially after comparing him with others.

In Yan Shao's eyes, he is the top scientist in the Marvel universe, but in the eyes of others, he is a loser who can't even pay for his own mortgage. He obviously has the best intelligence, but he is still worried about the mortgage of his building. ————Compare Tony Stark next door, the two are completely different.

He also visited many entrepreneurs along the way, but when these entrepreneurs faced Reed, each of them had such a condescending attitude that the good brothers behind him wanted to hit them. Yan Shao was the first one to be so kind. .

This also gave Reid some hope for the possibility of success in his trip.

"So, do you two have any important business coming to my place?"

Signing for the two of them to sit on the sofa, Yan Shao asked curiously.

He really couldn't imagine that he and Reed would have anything to do with each other.

"It's like this. I currently have a very promising project on hand." As he spoke, Reed took out a device and placed it on Yan Shao's table. A three-dimensional image was quickly mapped from it. The image floats around the office.

It has to be said that after traveling to the Marvel world for so long, this was the first time that Yan Shao saw this kind of sci-fi scene that could only be seen in movies in the real world. He suddenly showed curious eyes and didn't even care about the two of them at all. His eyes touched the image.

Reed put aside the fact that Ben was a good person, and neither of them showed contempt for Yan Shao's lack of knowledge.

After Yan Shao satisfied his curiosity, Reed continued. "According to my speculation, under high-energy cosmic storms, some kind of evolution of life may be triggered, which can help us conduct more detailed research on the human body, solve many unsolved mysteries of human beings, and even allow us to understand More genetic makeup in the human body and cures for more diseases that would otherwise be untreatable.”

"Prolonging life so that people can live longer, healthier, and stronger..."

Standing next to the three-dimensional image, Reed explained in an passionate tone, and Yan Shao became more and more confused.

If Reed needs some business promotion, he can understand it, or if he needs help with drones or exoskeletons, Yan Shao can understand it, too.

But this kind of cosmic storm, rays, etc...

"I'm sorry, but what does this have to do with your visit?"

Seeing Reed's tone becoming more and more passionate, Yan Shao had to interrupt.

Just as he was in the mood, he was suddenly interrupted. Reed also felt a little embarrassed, so he explained: "It's like this. This project is very promising. I think if it succeeds, it will not only benefit mankind, but also benefit mankind." It can bring huge returns, but the problem is..."

Seeing Reed being so unwilling, Ben next to him spoke for him. "We need money, we need adequate funding."

"Yes." Reed continued, with Ben speaking for him. "To conduct this research, we need to board some space stations in space, but these space stations either belong to some large companies or belong to certain countries. You know, they cannot let us for free. Boarding the space station, let alone being under a cosmic storm.”

"so?"

"So we hope you can provide some financial support, and of course, if the experiment is successful, we will also give sufficient returns."

Yan Shao was silent for a while, and he seemed to remember that there seemed to be such a scene before Reed and the others became the Fantastic Four.

"Approximately how much funding do you need?"

"In addition to research, spaceship leasing, shipping tickets, etc., one billion should be enough." Hearing what Yan Shao said, Reed suddenly said with expectation.

When Yan Shao heard this, he couldn't help laughing out loud.

"One billion? I'm sorry, but I heard you right. You came to me asking for a billion investment? Am I crazy or are you crazy?"

Yan Shao admitted that the research on Cranium Opener was indeed very promising. If it succeeded, it would bring great rewards. Even if it failed, the Fantastic Four would still be created. But the question is, where did he come from? One billion?

Umbrella is indeed a big business now. In addition to Micro-Krypton, which has a global monopoly, Umbrella also occupies a considerable market share in drones and exoskeleton armor. At least in a short period of time, with its With sufficient technical capabilities and the help of WeKr, both of them have a market share of more than [-]% in the United States and are still rising.

The market share outside the United States is less than 5000%, but progress is also rapid.Nowadays, the daily income is not that small. The monthly income of Weikrypton alone is as much as [-] to [-] million yuan. It is too much to make a big stall.

The research and development and promotion of drones and exoskeletons require a huge amount of money, and the little money earned is basically invested in it.

Money is also needed in the wilderness, and he plans to build a building in New York. After going back and forth like this, he actually doesn't have much money left.

To Yan Shao, a sudden visit like Reed's and his friends seemed like a joke.

"This?" Reed and Ben looked at each other, not understanding why Yan Shao had such a big reaction.

After calming down his emotions, Yan Shao waved his hand and said: "I'm sorry, although I am very interested in your research, but I don't have that much money in my hand. To be honest, let alone one billion, even if it is 1000 We don’t even have [-] US dollars, so we really can’t support such a big research like yours.”

"To be honest..." Reed smiled bitterly. "I also know this, so the purpose of my coming here is not only to request investment, but also to hope that you can help me introduce someone to you."

"Who?" Yan Shao was a little confused.

"Tony Stark." Another name came out of Reed's mouth. "I did research before coming here. Your company's profitability is indeed very strong, but the stall is too big and you don't have a lot of liquidity. But I heard that you have a very good relationship with Tony Stark, so I I was thinking, if you could give me a recommendation, maybe I can..."

"Okay..." Yan Shao was speechless. He ran over with the other party not because of himself, but because of the money in Tony's pocket.

But think about it, as the leading scientist and entrepreneur in the United States, Tony has almost unlimited funds, which can be seen from his pile of various steel suits.

One billion is an astronomical figure to me, but it may not be so to Tony.

"Okay." Yan Shao touched his nose. "But let me say it first, I cannot guarantee that he will definitely be willing to invest in your project."

"Of course." Reed looked happy when he heard that Yan Shao was willing to introduce him, but he felt a little embarrassed.

Although it is for scientific research and to benefit mankind, it is really not in line with his character to beg for help everywhere in such a lowly manner. What's more, this time he came to ask for help from a distance, which is even more speechless.

Not tabooing the two of them, Yan Shao called Tony in front of Reed and Ben and explained the situation to him.

Tony had also heard of Reed's name and knew that he was a famous genius scientist in New York. He always admired smart people. He did not refuse on the phone but said: "I am free the day after tomorrow. You can come to my office at that time." Come to the office and I’ll listen to your suggestions personally.”

"Okay." The two of them didn't expect to be able to complete the research in just one meeting, so they were overjoyed to hear the result.

Looking at the two people leaving happily, Yan Shao shrugged helplessly.

It is really hard to understand that he is obviously the top scientist in the Marvel universe, but he is so miserable.

Then two days later, Yan Shao heard the news that Tony rejected Reed.
