Chapter 111 Research materials on nuclear weapons? I have them!
"That's enough, Calvin!" Thomas Gloucester, who was in the first place, scolded Calvin, then turned to Josie and said, "What we did is actually not that exaggerated. In most cases, doing this kind of thing is helpless.
You are also a businessman, and you should understand that many of Roosevelt's measures are not suitable for the post-war economy!"
"Of course, sir, I understand very well!" Josie nodded pretending to be honest.
"As long as you understand, you don't need to be involved in this matter. After all, you have just returned to the organization. Although you have joined the Chicago Consortium, your roots in the United States are not deep and you are not suitable to be too involved in American politics. Help us regain our position in Europe.
Keeping your footing is the most important thing for you!" Thomas Gloucester looked at Josie with a sincere attitude and said with satisfaction.
Originally, he thought that this successful young man would be as arrogant as Schmidt. He agreed to his return to the organization only because the other party had mastered the European branch by chance. He even thought that the other party was just a launch of the European branch.
He is a shield, but judging from the performance of the short-term contact now, he is actually a very calm young man.
In comparison... Thomas glanced at Calvin and shook his head secretly.
Originally, Iseldam Energy made a fortune during the Great Depression, and now it should be a behemoth similar to Citigroup and Roxon. It's just a pity that old Chadwick died at the critical moment, leaving Calvin as a fool.
.
"Of course, I will try my best!" Hearing Thomas's words, Josie was also surprised. She originally thought that the other party was bringing up such big things as interfering in the election and attacking Roosevelt to embarrass herself, so she scratched her pigtails.
of.
The result now seems not to be the case.
It seems that Hydra is very tolerant towards others.
But it’s right to think about it. If you give this kind of task that may affect the fate of the organization to someone like Qiao Xi who has just joined, that is making fun of your own wealth and life - even if Qiao Xi joins as a director.
no.
Therefore, the other directors nodded in approval of Thomas's words and Josie's performance.
"Speaking of another thing, after Whitney's death, the research progress of atomic weapons was greatly delayed. I think the council should come up with a backup charter for this matter. After all, if it cannot be produced as soon as possible,
If you don't let the whole world see atomic weapons, it won't be that easy for the United States to gain world hegemony!" Seeing that Josie seemed to be recognized by the other directors, Calvin Chadwick couldn't help but throw out a
question.
"Speaking of which, Whitney's matter is related to you, right? Josie?" After hearing this, the other directors also looked at Josie.
Calvin's straw bag is only compared to these old fritters on the council.
But for most ordinary people in this era, Calvin, who received a strict elite education since childhood, is not considered a fool in any way.
Although the Manhattan Project is a national project of the United States, its birth and operation are still inseparable from the interest groups behind the directors here. To some extent, it is also Hydra's own project.
As mentioned earlier, Whitney is just a female star on the surface, but privately she is one of Hydra's important researchers involved in this project. However, because of her female identity, she has not been able to directly participate in the project.
It was smart of Calvin to use this matter to antagonize Josie.
"Yes, I did this. This woman's act of stealing the night light potion almost brought me to a military court. If my research institute hadn't happened to develop the bright light potion, would I be able to do it now?
Sitting here and talking...what? If you were in this situation, wouldn't you keep her for Christmas?" Unlike Zuo Guyan when Malik tried to test him last time, Qiao Xi was very angry this time.
He admitted it outright.
Because the situation is no longer the same. Before he joined the council, the two parties were not on the same page. Qiao Xi admitted that the other party could make a fuss about this matter to retaliate against him.
But now that Josie has become one of the highest-ranking directors in Hydra, Whitney's previous behavior falls into the category of "the lower is the highest".
Other directors can take advantage of this matter, but they cannot take advantage of Josie. This is the privilege of being a director.
"Although Whitney was at fault in this matter, Josie, your treatment was still too violent. It doesn't matter how you punish her, but killing her directly is still inappropriate!" the controller of the Roxon Group
Huw Jones also said at this time, "But this matter is not irreversible. I have a pretty good personal relationship with that genius scientist, Howard Stark. Maybe we can try to persuade him to participate in the Manhattan Project. In terms of ability,
, he should also be better than Whitney."
After hearing what Huw Jones said, the other directors immediately agreed. Although Howard Stark was obviously not from the same group as them, this did not prevent them from using this super scientist in other names.
Previously, Howard Stark was recruited to the front line by the Strategic Science Corps and was responsible for the research and development and manufacturing of various special equipment, so the council was not very easy to start.
But with the end of the European War, Howard Stark, like Josh, had returned to the United States, which gave the Council an opportunity.
However, no one noticed that when Huw Jones mentioned his personal relationship with Howard, Josie looked at the head of the council leader with a strange look on his face.
why?
Of course it's because of Howard's personal ethics.
There is no denying that both Stark and his son are geniuses, and they are often responsible "heroes".
But compared to other upright heroes such as Captain America, the personal ethics of this father and son are not that good.
To be friends with this father and son, you must first consider whether you will become a cuckold because of it.
And coincidentally, Josie knew that Huw Jones, who claimed to have a good personal relationship with Howard, was one of the victims... Josie had not watched Agent Carter Part 2, so she did not know Whitney Frost before.
Ted and Calvin Chadwick.
But Huw Jones is an exception, because the Roxon Group he controls has a very high appearance rate in Marvel comics, movies, and TV series, so Josie has specifically read the intelligence about the Roxon Group collected by those UP masters.
Among them, the love-hate relationship between Hugh Jones and Howard Stark was mentioned.
To put it bluntly, Hugh Jones regarded Howard as his brother, but Howard slept with his wife.
That is to say, from that time until the era of Tony Stark in later generations, the Roxon Group has been desperately targeting the Stark Group.
Apart from business struggles, no one would believe that there were no personal grudges here.
But this matter has nothing to do with Qiao Xi, and he has no intention of reminding this person.
But Josie won't expose Calvin's accusations against Whitney so easily.
Isn’t it just nuclear weapons research data?
He has the whole package!
Yuri is here.
Not to mention the first generation atomic bomb.
The second generation hydrogen bomb, the three-phase bomb.
The third generation of neutron bombs and electromagnetic pulse bombs.
Even fourth-generation nuclear directed energy weapons can be a problem?
"If you are worried that the research process of nuclear weapons will be delayed, then there is no need!" While the other directors were discussing this matter, Qiao Xi spoke up.
"Oh? What do you have in mind, Josie?" Calvin asked provocatively.
"Have you forgotten the super weapon that Schmidt was researching before his death?" Josie raised an eyebrow.
"Of course I know, but isn't it unfinished? And according to the information we got, that thing must have a Cosmic Cube!" Thomas said after hearing what Josie said.
"Although I am suspected of bragging, what I can tell you is that there are several capable people in the research institute under me. After obtaining the super weapon information left by Schmidt, they conducted derivation, and
We have already achieved tangible results...but it is limited by industrial conditions and cannot be transformed into physical objects!" Qiao Xi smiled and put the responsibility of researching nuclear weapons information on the Red Skull.
As for whether these people believe it or not, that's none of Qiao Xi's business. Anyway, the nuclear bomb information he has is genuine, and it will be useless even if Red Skull or Zola comes out to deny it.
