Seeing that Leo had a question to ask himself, Otto naturally took it seriously. He asked Peter to move some chairs and the four of them sat together.
The laboratory conditions were poor, and Otto could only do this.
"Mr. Erwin, what do you want to ask?"
Leo pointed to the neural arm on the workbench and asked:
"I want to ask, since you already have miniaturized nuclear reactor technology, it stands to reason that you can't be so short of money?
Don't tell me that you have no idea about the commercial value of micro nuclear reactors, that's absolutely impossible.
You must understand what I really want to ask, can you please explain it to me?"
This question naturally appeared in Leo's mind after he confirmed the authenticity of the micro nuclear reactor technology.
At this time, he finally asked, expecting Otto to explain it to him.
After asking the question, Leo glanced at Peter calmly.
But there was no surprised expression on Peter's face, and he obviously knew the reason.
Now Leo was even more surprised. With both Peter and Otto's intelligence, they couldn't think of a way to profit from the micro nuclear reactor.
It seems that there is a big problem behind this miniature nuclear reactor!
After hearing Leo's question, the expression on Otto's face was very complicated, with memories, anger, and mostly helplessness.
"Peter, I get excited easily when I mention this matter. You should explain it to Mr. Irvine."
"Oh, okay, okay!"
Peter was about to listen to Otto's story again. After all, Otto's story was scattered last time, but suddenly he was assigned to work and he was a little unresponsive.
Peter recalled the stories Otto had told before, sorted out his thoughts, and asked:
"Mr. Erwin, do you know Norman Osborn?"
"Are you talking about the newly-appointed mayor of New York City, who is also the chairman of Aoshi Enterprises? If it is him, of course I know!"
Leo not only knows about Norman Osborn in this world, who often appears on TV and in newspapers, but also knows about various versions of the Green Goblin in previous lives.
However, Leo felt that in this world, Norman might really be an ordinary person, at most a powerful ordinary person.
Because, after living in New York for so long, Leo has never heard of any reports of similar attacks by the Green Goblin.
Moreover, in this world, there are various organizations and forces researching human body enhancement technology.
But even the talented Howard Stark failed to restore the super serum formula.
He even lost his life in the end.
So, how could Norman Osborne successfully develop a "human body enhancement agent"?
Leo's thoughts were divergent, but Peter continued to organize his words, trying to explain things about the micro nuclear reactor from beginning to end.
"Dr. Octavius once said that he and Osborne worked in the same laboratory when they were in college. They were experimental partners and very good friends. They were called the Osborn brothers.
Later, they decided to start a business together..."
"Wait a minute, you mean that Oscorp Enterprise was actually founded by Dr. Octavius and Obans?"
Leo heard something that surprised him, and couldn't help but interrupt Peter with one more sentence.
"Yes, of course! This is also the reason why Aoshi Enterprise is called Aoshi Enterprise. It's just that the word "brother" in the laboratory was replaced by "enterprise"."
It took Leo a few seconds to accept this fact, then coughed and asked:
"But what does this have to do with micronuclear reactors?"
"Mr. Erwin, don't worry, we will talk about this soon."
Seeing that Leo was a little anxious, Peter sorted out his thoughts and just picked up some important things and continued.
"Dr. Octavius and Osborne developed the prototype of this micro-nuclear reactor while working together within Osborne Enterprises.
However, the radiation problem has not been solved, so this micro nuclear reactor technology has been shelved for a long time.
Later, Dr. Octavius left the Austrian Enterprise, and he successfully perfected the micro-nuclear reactor technology and solved the radiation problem.
However, the two had originally signed an agreement regarding the ownership of the micro-nuclear reactor. Legally speaking, this technology should actually belong to both Doctor and Osborne.
The Doctor and Osborne are currently at odds with each other, so the Doctor cannot make money from it.
Even the doctor needs to find other energy sources to replace the micro nuclear reactor as the energy source for the neural arm."
After saying that, Peter stopped.
"Is this the end?!"
At this time, a black question mark appeared on Leo's face.
Why did Otto leave Osborne Enterprises? Why did Otto have a disagreement with Osborne? The fire of gossip burned in Leo's heart.
"Yes, that's all the reasons. In fact, there are many stories here, but it seems that Mr. Erwin is a little anxious, so..."
Peter spread his hands innocently.
But in any case, Leo's original question was barely answered. Although the fire of gossip was successfully attracted, this was also caused by Leo himself, and he had nothing to say.
Who told Leo not to be a quiet listener? He kept urging him!
However, the person involved, Dr. Octavius, was still here, and Leo was embarrassed to ask for specific details from Peter.
But he felt that he could find a way to get some details from Otto's mouth.
So, Leo said to Otto, who looked calm on his face but actually had his fists clenched:
"Dr. Octavius, actually I think you can really choose to cooperate with Osborne again.
Relying on this micro nuclear reactor technology, you and he will definitely make a lot of money.
And you happen to be short of research funds, so there is really no need to struggle with money, just be more flexible in your thinking!"
Leo was testing the language skills.
Peter's description just now hints that the conflict between Otto and Osborne must be deep.
In fact, it is not difficult to infer this from the huge contrast between Otto being penniless and Osborne being extremely wealthy.
After all, it was the Osborne Enterprise that was jointly created by the two of them. If Otto hadn't been severely cheated by Osborne, how could he have been so miserable?!
Leo's move is called poking the sore spot! He actively detonates the explosive barrel!
Sure enough, Otto, who has been using an intracranial nerve signal sensing helmet for testing for a long time, is now particularly prone to losing control of his emotions.
After listening to Leo's suggestion, he suddenly said hysterically:
"Let me work with him again?! No way, absolutely impossible!
He is a complete liar, not only has a small mind, but also has a very bad heart!
Can you imagine? When Osborne Enterprises was first founded, Osborne actually tampered with the equity contract!
After the establishment of Aoshi Enterprises, he became more and more obsessed with genetic research and invited me to do research with him many times. He even conducted many unethical experiments in private.
Naturally, I rejected him. After all, my research interest and direction are not genetics at all.
But he actually held a grudge over this and took advantage of a loophole in the initial equity contract to give me a small amount of money and then kicked me out.
But that money could not sustain my research for long, so I later relied on applying for government research grants.
Fortunately, the projects I had studied were not bad, so I applied for the subsidy very smoothly, and it continues to this day.
However, the damn Osborne is still unwilling to let me go!
After he became the mayor, he actually used conspiracy and tricks to cancel my auxiliary payment. He was trying to push me to a dead end!"
Otto hammered the workbench next to him hard and then said,
"You say, you say, I might cooperate with him again? Even if he makes a lot of money, will he give me a cent of the money he makes?!
He won't, he will only play tricks again and take the technology of micro nuclear reactors as his own!
Even if I, Otto, starve to death in my life, and even if I keep the micro-nuclear reactor technology in my stomach, I will never have any cooperation with Osborne again!"
