Super Seminary: Blooming All the Way

Chapter 246 Want to start your own business

It can be said that the most charming superhero lineup in the entire United States has been acquired by Lucifer.

What else can Tony Stark do?

He wants to start his own business?

Just kidding, people may envy his rich and playboy status, but they will not worship a simple capitalist.

With his hatred of the rich and Tony Stark's unreliable playboy image, if he wants to become a superhero, he will probably have to plan a public relations campaign and hype himself up.

In the original plot, Tony Stark was still secretly playing the role of Iron Man, but now, Lucifer openly promotes the superhero cause, which in turn prompts many superheroes who were originally low-key and hidden to come forward and participate in talent shows.

Of course, there are also those who disdain to participate, as they believe their path is different from Lucifer's.

The fact that Lucifer claimed to be an alien was initially known only to a small circle of people, but now everyone who is well-informed knows this fact.

Fortunately, Lucifer's publicity strategy worked, and coupled with his suggestion that his media outlets compare him to Clark Kent, the Superman from DC Comics, he really succeeded by leveraging the popularity of this comic character.

"I have money."

Tony Stark wanted to straighten his suit, but he was wearing the Iron Man armor at the moment, and Lucifer couldn't find the dismantling tools.

"Yes, you are rich, but I am not poor either."

Lucifer smiled in response.

Stark Industries is indeed rich, an important arms supplier to the United States, and has been acquired by the government. However, the company is not as prosperous as people imagine.

Because Tony Stark's weapons are too advanced, the United States only purchases a portion of them each time it buys new products, and then has to wait for him to develop new weapons. Americans think that new weapons are enough and there is no need to upgrade frequently.

Are you kidding? How much do you think it costs to upgrade weapons?

So, relatively speaking, Hammer Industries, which focuses on light weapons, has higher sales.

Although Tony Stark has tens of billions of dollars, the liquid funds he can easily mobilize are limited, and most of them belong to the valuations and assets of Stark Industries.

After all, Stark Industries doesn't own an entire city like Wayne Enterprises, let alone a global company like Shinra or Umbrella, which owns nuclear warheads.

"I'm telling you, I'm probably richer than you right now."

Lucifer to Tony Stark.

Let’s not talk about SC’s superhero business, which mainly relies on peripheral products and has not yet generated a lot of cash flow. The superhero theme park is still under construction, so Lucifer has cashed out a lot through other means to maintain SC’s operations.

These methods include selling diet pills, rat poison, cockroach poison and mosquito poison.

Although these products may seem low-end, they are actually incredibly profitable, especially Lucifer’s medicines, whose biggest advantage is “quick results”!

The slimming pills, one pill a day, one kilogram a day, after taking them, the stars don't have to worry about keeping in shape. The actor of Wolverine loves desserts, but during filming he had to give up sweets and exercise hard every day. Taking the slimming pills from Umbrella solved this problem.

"Many people envy my good figure, but I just want to say that it is a hard-earned way to maintain it. It wasn't until I started taking Umbrella's weight-loss pills that I was worried about the side effects. After all, the company didn't even have clinical trials or data, and it hadn't even been approved by the US pharmaceutical department."

When Hugh Jackman was interviewed in front of the camera, he introduced Umbrella's weight loss pills with a beaming face.

The price of diet pills is affordable and they adopt the strategy of small profits but quick turnover. Each pill costs $10 and there are 100 pills in a bottle. You don’t need to take them often anyway and gaining weight is a process.

In addition to stars like Hugh Jackman, there are also many obese patients. As a country with serious obesity problems, the United States, when diet drugs were first launched on the market, some pharmaceutical market giants initially tried to boycott them. In the end, they were "invited" by Lucifer to the Pacific Ocean to feed sharks, and have been silent since then.

The weight-loss pills quickly became popular, sold out in all major pharmacies and production lines were overwhelmed by demand. Rat poison, mosquito poison and cockroach poison were also equally popular.

They do not have a killing function, they only have a repelling effect. After all, these three types of pests are also part of the ecological chain and cannot be completely eliminated.

However, due to the obvious repelling effect, many high-end restaurants have purchased these pills, and one pill can last a day, saving the trouble of maintenance.

High-end restaurants in the United States spend huge amounts of money every year on hygiene, cleaning and pest control. Now, using these drugs, the cost is far less than one percent.

Demand is equally strong from hotels, not to mention private households.

With these drugs, Lucifer accumulated a large amount of cash in a short period of time, otherwise his SC company, which was burning money, would have collapsed long ago.

Of course Tony Stark did his research before coming here, and he had originally thought about investing and joining. After all, he didn't want to be bound by constraints, and he also knew that it was impossible for him to operate like Lucifer and establish a superhero company to compete with him.

Although the United States may support it and other countries may follow suit, Tony Stark is unwilling to become someone else's pawn.

After investigation, Tony Stark discovered that Umbrella Corporation had become a cash-devouring giant that was sweeping the low-end drug market in the United States and was said to be planning to enter the high-end drug market, such as the research and development of anti-cancer drugs.

Not to mention that there is also demand from other countries around the world, Umbrella Corporation's future profits will only increase and become more and more exaggerated.

And this is just one of the subsidiaries of SC. Lucifer also plans to monopolize the superhero IP, squeeze out game companies such as Capcom and Blizzard, launch various superhero theme games, and even create a "superhero league."

It’s no joke that Riot Games has taken the world by storm with League of Legends.

Therefore, when Lucifer claimed that he was richer than him, Tony Stark didn't know how to refute. Although he held a potential gold mine in the new energy market, that was in the future after all.

Giants such as the Le, Morgan and DuPont families who realized the potential of the new energy market just wanted to invest in it.

Although this means that Stark Industries will lose a lot of shares or even controlling rights, the benefits will definitely be huge!

It is not difficult for Stark Industries to leap forward. Becoming a giant in the new energy market means endless wealth and benefits!
