How did I become a villain

Volume 118: [-] Go to China to open a factory
Not long after Xuefeng left for Shanghai, the top management of the Stark Group also submitted an investment plan to China to the United States government.
After more than half a year of collecting materials and conducting on-the-spot investigations, Howard already had first-hand information on the location of the investment.
He first analyzed the current international situation in the plan, pointed out the shortcomings of the United States in trade with Asia, and proposed that in addition to Japan, which has already been subdued, there are more business partners worth making.Then he subtly mentioned the Chinese market, pointing out that they have the largest population in the world, but most of them live at the bottom of society.In order to help these people get out of the sea of suffering, the United States, as a beacon of freedom, has the obligation to stand up on behalf of world civilization and so on.
Of course, these fake nonsense can't fool the officials who invented these concepts. Then Howard took out the most direct and clear benefits-by investing in the construction of factories in China, we can use the huge local population base for our use, and help the local people by the way. While solving the employment problem, it is exchanged for the scarce resources needed by the United States.
To say that exchange is actually a good thing, it is not an exaggeration to say that unequal trade is plunder.
The United States has vast land and abundant resources. They have what other countries have, and they also have what other countries do not have.But only rare earth mines are the strategic materials they urgently need.Especially high-quality rare earth mines only exist in Asia, and that place is called China.
It is time-consuming and labor-intensive to mine and refine by yourself. Is it not good to import directly?
Howard, who has just turned 30, is still a successful businessman who pays attention to his appearance. He wants to set an example as an elder in front of Griffin, so he has been deliberately maintaining his personality.He did not directly propose to plunder the greatest resources at the least cost, but offered to establish factories in several important cities, showing the attitude of wanting to do business.
Some words are too clear and they will be isolated by the group. All the political elites here are in suits and ties. How can they listen to those swear words?Everyone gets a good reputation, but the tax that should be paid must not be less.
These factories mainly produce civilian products, such as furniture, electrical appliances, textiles and other light industries, and almost none of them are close to the military. The only ones that have a little connection are the cement factories and power plants on the list.
But as long as you dig a little deeper, you will find that the main power equipment of this batch of factories is a new energy source based on unlimited energy.
To put it bluntly, this is an attempt to see whether unlimited energy can replace old energy.If it succeeds, the new energy will gradually replace the old energy. The chaebols and the government that have successfully transformed will be full of food, and the remaining resources will benefit ordinary people. If it fails, that is also the Stark Group’s business, and there is no loss to the United States.
As for the attitude of the Rockefeller family and their supporters towards new energy... As long as Stark doesn't engage in this kind of confrontation with them in China, it doesn't matter where he goes. Kill - this is the bottom line that Obadiah talked about later.
Through Howard's plan and the support of lawmakers in the government, the president finally authorized the Stark Group's China aid plan.
Although this visit to the United States did not receive explicit military support from the government, it is better to win a batch of aid than nothing.After returning to China, although Gu Weijun did not complete the main task and made the bald head very unhappy, the American investigators who came with him were still received by the bald head.
For the locals, if the government can implement the policy, it will undoubtedly benefit both parties.People at the bottom have found jobs, the government has maintained a stable rule, and it can also promote social and economic development, injecting vitality into the lifeless country.But for KMT, which has been rotten to the bone, there is nothing impossible for those who dare to greedy for military aid and donations. It is impossible for them to control themselves and not suck the bones of the workers.This group of guys who only know how to behave in the nest have no long-term plans and concepts at all. Being a monk and hitting the clock for a day is the best explanation.
To say that their greatest ability is to be able to accurately find the only wrong one among a circle of correct and relatively correct one hundred options.It may be a matter of luck once or twice, but every time it happens, this is really an extremely special ability.
Regarding this point, Howard, who has only been in China for less than ten days, has already experienced it personally.
The agreement had just been signed, the machines were still on the way, and the bricks for the factory building hadn't been delivered yet, and people from all walks of life came to him to share the profits.Pay attention to the good-looking ones who offer to invest in shares, and the ugly ones to ask for money.There are even those who try to monopolize building materials and charge high prices.Howard, who followed Griffin's advice and wanted to make a career in China, laughed angrily.
The seemingly bustling and feasting are actually colorful balloons, full of staleness and decay behind the scenes. These glamorous and bright floating on the surface are the bubbles of fantasy, which will be burst by the cold reality and hateful faces.
Griffin should really come here and see for herself how the "important parts" depicted in her drawings actually look like hip-pulls.
Howard, who returned to the hotel after attending a gathering of so-called political and business elites for a few days, finally figured it out.
The domestic and foreign elites are really not the same thing.
Even if I give you the money, you will only exploit it layer by layer, and the last penny will not go to the construction. Although I, Stark, have a lot of money, I don't want to be a money-loser.
At the beginning, the businessmen and officials were naturally not happy, but after several consecutive tough attitudes and fellow American government officials came forward to support them, even threatening with force, this made the gentry realize that this is not an ordinary American businessman.Not only does he have a close relationship with the president, the military is even willing to come forward for him to suppress rioting gangs.In the end, the bald head was afraid that the allies would be surprised, so he specially sent his cronies, and the gentry who were unable to get off the tiger took advantage of the situation to get off the donkey, and the matter was resolved.
I heard that this group of social celebrities who wanted to take advantage of the incident suffered a lot of scolding, and all of them were disgraced when they came out of the presidential palace.
Also because of this, Howard, who knew that the mud could not support the wall, simply proposed in front of the representatives of the Republic of China government that his own people should be responsible.
This person of his own is naturally Obadiah who ascended and descended secretly.
In fact, at this time, Obadiah has realized that the old friend was very upset because he passed Howard to approach and tried to use Griffin last time. The Rockefeller family used intrigues and tricks to alienate the picture of their iron-clad brotherhood, but during this period of time, he wanted to make up for the relationship between the two parties, and he was very concerned about the business with China, and even took the initiative to take over a lot of things that were not under his control. matter.
Volume 119: [-] If you ask who can control the future, it must be China
But he didn't expect that when the final result came out, he himself would become the main person in charge of the Stark Group's China region.
When he learned of this decision, he was stunned.A little nervous, a little skeptical, and a little elated.
It seems that I... used too much force?
Is this exile?Shouldn't it be?After all, no one here knows better than me, right?
Then Obadiah quickly figured it out.It doesn't matter if he stays in China, he knows his character. Although the Infinite Energy company he is in charge of has earned a lot of wealth in the world with several leading products and has become an important right-hand man of the Stark Group, he wants to join the military industry in his heart. My heart never gave up.If he continues to stay at Unlimited Energy, it is not guaranteed that one day he will come back to find Griffin again.Hitting the wall is small, and it will be troublesome to alert Howard when the time comes.
After all, Griffin is his god-niece. They have no blood relationship, and they don't usually look like uncles and nephews. God knows that "dry" will have a different meaning someday.
No matter what the purpose was, from beginning to end, this girl was beyond his reach.
Rather than having a bad ending in the end, it is better to keep the two sides at a distance, so that I can exert my full strength without any constraints.In the end, it is Infinity Energy that really makes the company grow, and Griffin, who has mastered this core technology, is the capital that supports him to make the company bigger and stronger.As long as I keep my distance and make friends with her, I can save a lot of trouble.
China is more than [-] kilometers away from the United States, which is far away from the emperor.
Thinking about it this way, Obadiah felt suddenly enlightened.He was pleasantly surprised to find that the shackles that restricted his performance seemed to be looser than when he was in the United States.
As long as you have a good relationship with the local government, you will always have the opportunity to get in touch with the cause you like.
If a businessman cannot become an arms dealer, his life will be meaningless. What is the difference between this and salted fish?
Having figured this out, the shrewd businessman's drive came back again.
"Don't worry Howard, I will definitely develop my business in China into a pillar industry of the group." Before parting, Obadiah took the initiative to raise his glass to Howard.
And the latter raised his glass in response. "I never doubted that."
It has been a month since Howard returned to New York after dealing with investment matters and personnel arrangements in China.
"I have arranged for him to go to China, and he will not come to harass you again."
"It sounds like you silenced him." Griffin was busy tinkering with a bunch of metal instruments without looking up. "Have you had a good time in China?"
"The food there is quite good. Although I can't take you to taste it in person, I can guarantee that we can go to Chinatown next to the New York City Hall when we have time. I heard that the Cantonese cuisine there is very famous." Howard put his hands in his pockets Hang out in the lab.I haven't been here for a month, and there are a lot of new equipment in the laboratory.No need to ask, this must have come from the hand of the girl in front of me again. "But it didn't feel like home. I missed the familiarity of home all the time during the month I was there."
"Uncle, your adaptability is so tenacious, I thought you wouldn't want to come back."
"Oh, I have a big dream to realize, how can I indulge in the gentle country." Howard didn't feel any sense of shame when he said this, as if he wasn't the one who changed his female partner every day. "Is it what you first thought about sending the core technology abroad?"
He's not stupid either. Griffin had thought of it when he proposed to open a branch of Infinity Energy abroad.It's just that I didn't expect to choose China in the end.
Although it is a bit unexpected, it is also reasonable.
"I'm here to avoid the risk from the United States for you." The girl who said this didn't blush and her heart didn't beat.
As the technologies related to infinite energy become more and more mature, the confrontation between new and old energy will be inevitable sooner or later. If you don’t plan for the future as soon as possible, do you have to wait until you are sanctioned to think about the layout?
As the birthplace of terrorist organizations, you don't really think that the mainland is the safest place, do you?Infinite energy comes from the original stone of space, and the original stone is here with me. Without opening a few more sub-bases, they can contain the entire company as long as they contain me.The Infinite Energy Company is the most important part of the Stark Group.How could those short-sighted plutocrats and politicians mess up the big plans for the future.
The role of space rough stones is coordinates. As long as they open factories in China, infinite energy can be continuously delivered to the local area through this coordinates.In addition to maintaining the daily operation of the factory, isn't there any benefit to the local development?
I was reincarnated as a German in this life, but the feelings of the previous life are still there. I can't support the former motherland on the surface, so I have to give blood to the motherland through indirect means.
Stark Group's plan to open a factory is the best excuse.
Not only in China, she is also planning to open factories and build sub-bases in Germany in the same way, but this time it must be operated with great fanfare.
After all, she is now a German.
In this matter, she and Howard are in a relationship of mutual use.Howard knew about her diversion of infinite energy, but he could never think of her real motive for doing so.
But Griffin still has to face after all, and feels a little owed to take advantage of others, so he has been staying in the laboratory during this time, trying to divert his attention with work.It wasn't until Howard came to her that they resumed communicating.
In this regard, Howard is still completely unaware.Only when she doesn't contact herself is because she has grown up and has her own ideas.
"Are you so optimistic about China?" Howard was a little puzzled. "I was there for a month, and things weren't as good as you said."
"It seems that you have suffered a lot there?" Griffin laughed, showing two canine teeth and dimples.Her eyes were full of ridicule. "It turns out that you, as a successful businessman, sometimes go astray."
Howard put his hands on his hips. "How to say?"
I'm not convinced if you say that.With my strategic vision, there is no time when I miss my investment.
Griffin shook his head and explained: "What you see is the present, but what I see is the future."
Howard was surprised by these words, and he asked slightly surprised: "The Cosmic Rubik's Cube still has the ability to predict the future?"
... What kind of magical brain circuit is this?Everyone knows what I want to talk about is the prospect.
But if you don't want to explain to him why I'm so sure, that's just the excuse.
So Griffin nodded calmly, and said solemnly: "Almost. If there is any country or nation on earth that can fly out of the earth, I think there are no more than three: the United States, Russia, and China. If anyone can fly human civilization Inheritance, probably only China. I suggest that you cooperate with China, not only to make money, but also to realize the globalization of unlimited energy. If you want to colonize space, you cannot do without the help of China.”
Volume 120.1: [-] Candidate for New General Manager of Infinite Energy Corporation
"You think highly of them." Howard snorted, noncommittal. "But they have nothing now."
"They will in the future."
"Is that why you like them so much?"
"I suggest Uncle, you can read more about Chinese history." Griffin stretched out his hand and took out a general history of the world out of thin air. "The four ancient civilizations, besides the Chinese civilization, which one do you think has been going on for thousands of years? Are you not curious about how this civilization did it?"
"It seems that I will have one more thing every day." Looking at the book in the girl's hand, Howard decided not to delve into this issue, and simply shrugged and conceded. "But I'm curious, as a German, how did you come to pay attention to this?"
"The Nazi government banned all literary dissemination, and I missed school time, so can't I teach myself?" Griffin asked rhetorically.
"Well, it's really hard for you." Speaking of this, Howard couldn't help showing embarrassment.He nodded and said, "If you are interested in this aspect, you can tell me, and I can support you to apply for relevant colleges."
Because of special circumstances, Griffin has missed the best school-age stage.Speaking of which, Howard also feels a little guilty. If Griffin intends to apply for the school, he will naturally be willing to pay for it, which can be regarded as a kind of compensation.
"Thank you, I'm just a hobby."
What should be said has already been said, and Howard himself will distinguish it, and emphasizing it is counterproductive.So Griffin gently brushed off the subject and continued to bury himself in his work.
Howard naturally also had this tacit understanding, and he changed the subject: "During my absence, no one troubled you, right?"
This level of concern is like a hen guarding her cubs.
"Carter and the captain helped a lot."
"That's it?" Howard nodded. "I have to find time to thank them."
"You could do that at their wedding."
"Speaking of which, next month is their wedding day, right? Then I will take you out to meet the world." Speaking of this, Howard was also in a trance.I sigh how time flies, and before I know it, my friends are getting married.After all, where is my true love? "What are you doing?"
“When I want to multitask, but I don’t have the time to do it, I need something else to follow my will, and it saves time,” she explains. "Scientists here can also help, but they also have their own jobs."
"This is like... an enhanced version of the prosthetic?" Howard observed and saw the doorway hidden in these parts. "Obadiah told me frankly that he asked you about the piggyback arm, and I just took it as a joke. And then you made it?"
"As an ordinary person, he feels a deep threat to superpowers, so I can understand how to fight superheroes. Even in some respects, I agree with him, thinking that all superpowers They should be regulated. They cause far more damage than ordinary people, and the lack of effective control will exacerbate the threat," Griffin said. "But what I made has nothing to do with curbing superpowers."
Uh...or rather, it has nothing to do with the original intention.
Because Griffin thought that this thing could tie up the target like a fishing net.
"I can see that carrying this thing on the back of ordinary people is useless except to increase the burden." Howard first smiled, then restrained his expression, and asked seriously: "But what if its weight becomes lighter? "
As he spoke, he took the drawings and drew a few more long, multi-jointed arms on the carapace. "Make a few more robotic arms, it can even lead people to climb cliffs."
"Obadiah was finally driven away, now it's your turn, right?" The girl understood what he meant.Lifting his little chin, he couldn't help shaking his head and laughing. "But you also reminded me that maybe some people who are engaged in dangerous work can use this thing. For example... firefighters or rescuers in complex terrain. In order to rescue trapped people, they often need to be in danger, now Some devices are limited to specific environments. If they can be equipped with robotic arms, they will be more flexible in some actions."
"In this way, I just need to reduce the weight of the material, strengthen the load-bearing capacity and fixation capacity of the joints, and then balance the stability..." Griffin took a piece of white paper from the side, took a pen and began to paint, and soon drew Sketched out—a piggyback vest and four slender metal arms.
Seeing this blueprint, she suddenly felt a sense of déjà vu, and she couldn't help being a little surprised.
Then she recalled the sense of déjà vu.
Isn't this thing... the nano-spider suit that your son will give Peter in the future?Unexpectedly, by mistake, I made the original version for you.
At first, she just wanted to make two metal arms, put them on the laboratory table, and help to carry things when she needed them.
Sure enough, the original idea and actual use of many inventions are always far apart.
"You've increased my workload." Griffin glared at him complainingly.
Howard smiled knowingly. "But I'm sure you'll enjoy it."
I know you too well, just like Obadiah's obsession with arms, which are technologies for human development, and you will make them even if you stay up all night.Don't you like to see the surprise and anticipation on everyone's faces when the samples are released at the press conference?You always enjoy this feeling, right?
"Obadiah was transferred to China, the company has to have a new principal." Griffin said. "Do you have any good candidates?"
In this regard, Howard seems to have a plan.
He only heard a familiar name: "What do you think of Dr. Amberson Osborne?"
Amberson Osborne?The original Green Goblin Norman Osborn's father?I said why the name is so familiar, Spider-Man and his descendants fell in love and killed two generations.
At this time, Norman Osborn should be about the same age as himself, right?Bigger or smaller?Marvel's timeline is very chaotic, and there are several project restarts, and the background of the seventies and 80s will also appear in the 21st century.And Griffin is not a veteran Marvel fan. She is a pit of watching movies. It is too difficult to figure out the specific age and specific relationship between each superhero and super villain.
However, the three generations of the Green Goblin House can sort out the relationship clearly.If Howard is used as a reference, Amberson should be his peers.After all, Peter is Tony's half son.
Speaking of Dr. Osborne, he is also a young and promising entrepreneur.Of course, it can't be compared with Howard, who is the darling of the times and the son of the plane.
