035 Promise
With the official disclosure of Green Goblin's identity, there was an uproar in the fishing industry across the United States. People began to discuss, what made the distinguished chairman of Osborn embark on this insane path of no return? Is it just because of the business merger that may lead to the loss of control of the company, or is there another unknown reason?
After unremitting digging, the good media finally learned of such a thing from the servant who served the Osborn family many years ago: when Norman was very young, he hated barking dogs very much. One day his parents found out He couldn't find the pet dog at home, so he asked his son if he had seen it. The servants who were present at the time heard Norman clearly reply that he killed the pet with his own hands. It is conceivable that his parents must have been horrified when they heard the answer. It can be seen that Norman Osborn can be so cold-blooded and terrifying since he was a child, and it is not surprising that he turned himself into a Green Goblin when he grew up.
In addition to character factors, some people tried to associate him with Kim, thinking that the late underworld tycoon and Osborn must have had a lot of black gold transactions behind the scenes. Their reasons are also very good. According to authoritative sources, Jin Bin's death was caused by Green Goblin's attack, and Green Goblin's final assassination was also done by Jin Bin's killer Bullseye while he was being arrested by the police. It is impossible for the relevant forces to have such a fierce struggle, so there must be some kind of ulterior relationship between the two. During his lifetime, Jin Bing had always been willing to serve big companies and dignitaries in the political circles, helping them deal with ordinary citizens and journalists who did not know what to do. Presumably, there was a discord between the two parties. After the relationship broke down, Osborn blatantly killed the mafia tycoon in order to eliminate evidence.
Under the deliberate connivance of the authorities, all kinds of speculations from the outside world have intensified, making Lu Li as strange as a detective novel.
"If I had to use one word to describe my mood right now, 'shock' would be the most appropriate. I never imagined that a billionaire with a good image like Mr. Osborn would commit such a horrible act. The attack on the parade, The murder of Dr. Storm, the scientific officer, the killing of the board of directors and the massacre of competitors in the same industry must be severely punished!" - said a famous businessman who has a working relationship with Osborn.
"The purpose of maintaining status is to control power and obtain wealth, but the method of obtaining power and wealth should never be a crime. Power comes from the recognition and responsibility of the world. The growth of wealth comes from the creation and regeneration of value. Nothing Doubtless, it is Osborn's departure from this basic understanding that he caused irreparable harm to himself and innocent people." -CNN News Channel, High-End Talk Program.
"The whole incident has completely exposed the incompetence of the government, the arrogance of criminals, and the reality that social security and order are in vain. The only thing worthy of praise is that the New York Police Chief George Stacey took the lead in charging at the front line of the battle and struck at Green Goblin. His Majesty has selflessly shielded the heroism of his colleagues with his body. I would say he deserves a medal for his courage." - Leader of the Opposition, House of Representatives.
For a while, almost all the media and individuals severely criticized Osborn. With the common appeal of the government and the opposition, the federal government took advantage of the situation and made extremely unfavorable punishments for the Osborn family business, temporarily freezing the bank account and entrusting the company with a market value of up to two dollars. Hundreds of billions of huge enterprises. Just wait for the Federal Supreme Court to make a judgment, and the losses caused by his criminal behavior will be liquidated.
This kind of swift and violent punishment is extremely rare in the United States.
In general, street crime is more feared than gentleman crime because of its potential for violence and the destructiveness so vividly portrayed in film and television. But courts have seldom punished elite and corporate crimes as harshly as they have for street crime.
According to the statistics of relevant agencies, the sentences of defendants in banks or fund companies who embezzled hundreds of millions of dollars are even shorter than that of car thieves. They can also receive special care in prison and live quite comfortably; The average sentence served is only 11 months; even criminal crimes can often rely on money to clear the way, and the sentence can be greatly reduced through various legal or illegal means.
So this time Osborn was punished so quickly, it was entirely Norman's own doing, and he completely offended everyone.
In this turmoil, in addition to affiliated companies and banks running around in order to recover their creditor's rights and divide Norman's legacy, within the Osborn company, in order to preserve its own future and seek benefits, some middle and high-level managers with real power also Began lobbying around, trying to find a way to put the Osborn family and business aside.
Ross also inevitably became one of the targets of these people. He and Norman once had a deal, and the deal was completed in a private name. Norman couldn't come up with enough cash at the time, so he adopted the method of installment payment, and with the two dead shareholders Feige and Balkan, Their share transfer fee was not paid in time, so for a while, Ross became the joint creditor of both parties of Osborn's board of directors. Even if Osborn filed for bankruptcy in the future, he had the right to send his own representative to participate in the liquidation work.
"Mr. Byrne, now the bankers on Wall Street are very worried that Harry's taking power will cause more damage to the company's image. Our stock price has fallen to the bottom, so for our common interests, I ask you to treat friendship and business carefully. After all, there are still More than 150,000 employees depend on the company for their livelihood, and they need the right management to help the company survive this longest winter."
Norman's highly valued subordinate McCann had a loyal and honest face. At the moment, he stood in front of Ross with a sincere face, trying to persuade him to support him and kick Harry away.
Ross looked at the doctor and readily agreed.
"As you wish, I will not interfere with Harry's inheritance rights. Congratulations, Mr. McCann, and I hope you will not forget to fulfill your promise."
With Ross's permission, McCann nodded reservedly, although he still kept a smile on his face, his chin involuntarily lifted.
Ross was amused by his gesture, but the deal was done and he didn't say anything more.
Watching the triumphant betrayer leave, Ross casually handed the information sent by McCann to the doctor sitting beside him.
"The industrial park in Westchester?" The doctor glanced twice and couldn't help being amazed. "This is more than 300 acres of land. Norman spent a lot of effort to get it before he was alive, but McCann is really willing to give it up."
"Why is he reluctant? Now Osborn is a sick man, and everyone can't wait to get something from it. McCann's goal is the most profitable core industry, the electromagnetic power that Norman has been investing in during his lifetime. In order to build the world's first smart grid, Osborn almost broke the cash chain, and finally put it into use, how dare he invest in the new industrial park before recovering the cost?" Ross revealed the mystery.
The doctor laughed out loud, appreciating it several times, then suddenly raised his head.
"So, you haven't selected a site for the new laboratory, just for this land?"
How could the doctor forget that apart from the industrial park in Westchester, a small city in north-central New York, there is another place worth noting, and that is the Mutant College they have been planning.
But he guessed wrong, Ross didn't guess it would be here beforehand.
"It's a pure coincidence, maybe fate is helping us." He stretched his body comfortably, then stood up, and put his arms around Gwen who came to deliver coffee. After a riot in Central Park, the relationship between Gwen and Mary Jane improved greatly. He understood each other's intentions, and sometimes Ross couldn't help being moved. Amid the girl's dissatisfied coquettishness, he kissed her fair and smooth forehead.
Letting go of Gwen, Ross walked to the window, looking out at the vast world.
"What we do is world-changing work, and I believe that one day, we can unlock the mysteries of the universe. But until then, we will face a lot of difficulties, sometimes if you want to open a door and you don't have the key, then Just don't need hesitation, just fly and kick the door open, this is the most efficient way."
Standing in the warm afternoon sun, he spoke softly.
