1142 Dig a pit for Stark without cooperation and foresee the future
When he heard Richard say that he had clues in his hand, William, who was drinking beer, looked at him with a frown. Was his performance so obvious?
Why are you pretending to be an expert then?
Being stared at coldly, Richard immediately felt a chill rush to his forehead. This was more frightening than staring at a tiger at close range through an iron cage in a zoo.
He hurriedly whispered, "Relax, don't worry, buddy, I've probably negotiated with you several times, and with your identity and status, I don't need to check it deliberately. I just need to spend a little money to have your information on the black market."
And although I am an American, my ancestors are from England, and I have many friends in England.
As long as you are willing to inquire, you can still hear some information that is not included in the black market information.
So I know that according to your character, it would be strange for you not to take advantage of Stark, but you are not sure that everyone will take the opportunity to acquire shares, so you will definitely get benefits from Tony.
If this is the case, then at least Tony won’t die that easily, right?”
"I like smart people." William looked away and laughed softly, "Besides Stark Group and the entertainment industry, what other businesses does your family engage in?"
Richard felt nervous, nm's Devon Hill wouldn't threaten him just because of this, would he?
That's not right. If he said it so directly and comprehensively, it would be impossible for William not to hear that he had the idea of getting closer to each other. Moreover, even if he didn't say it, it would be difficult for William to find out.
"Building, construction company".
"Very good, it seems that even if we cannot reach cooperation on the issue of holographic technology, we may be able to cooperate first in an industry like construction that I have not paid attention to."
Richard was overjoyed, and his mind was filled with thoughts of development, "Man, no, no, boss, how do you want to cooperate?"
Speaking of architecture, William thought of the first sane Transformer transformed from an engineering robot on Planet X17.
A few years later, the island originally assigned to him has now been built into a high-tech town that can accommodate ten thousand people. Moreover, William deliberately suppressed this and only gave him ten engineering robots as helpers.
"Have you finished talking about revenge on those people in the desert?"
Richard instantly heard that William didn't want to talk about cooperation here, and said with a smile, "If we can't finish talking, we'll talk tomorrow. You are my sponsor now, and of course your matters are the most important.
And Tony’s matter won’t be solved for a while. When it’s twelve o’clock and you say you want to rest, no one will dare to be nagging.”
William smiled and rolled his eyes at Richard. The guy pretended to be helpless and turned back to the conference table. He shrugged with the others and sat on the chair and whispered that William would not participate in their attack and revenge on the desert people.
.
The quarrel lasted for about twenty minutes, and when Obaday came back, the quarrel continued for another ten minutes. It was midnight in Las Vegas.
William said, "You guys can continue talking if you have something else to do. I haven't slept all day because of the nuclear egg thing. I'm sorry, everyone."
Obadiah opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but he couldn't directly tell William to ignore Stark's affairs. He didn't even dare to make any hints in this regard before he knew what William was thinking.
After walking out of the conference room, William took the elevator and headed to the presidential suite that he had reserved for Sunday. He told the butler that guests would be arriving soon.
I found a good bottle of whiskey in the wine cabinet and sat on the sofa with the glass in hand. Within five minutes, the doorbell rang.
The sound of opening and closing came from outside the open living room door, and the housekeeper came in with Happy and Pepper.
After smiling with the two of them, William said to the housekeeper, "A man named Richard will come over in a moment and take him to the small living room to wait."
"Understood, Lord Devonshire." The butler nodded, then respectfully stepped back and closed the door to the living room.
"sit down".
"De, Devon Hill", before Little Pepper finished speaking, William interrupted her, looked at Happy and said, "I will send someone to take your parents to London for vacation, is that okay?"
Happy's expression froze. He had followed Stark for so many years, and he had never seen anything like this where parents were taken as hostages.
But thinking about William's noble status, and probably because there are too many such things in novels and movies, and thinking that if he accepts the mission to find Stark in the desert, he will take over a total of 200 million US dollars in cash.
Even if Happy felt uncomfortable and dissatisfied, so what, he could only nod, "No, no problem."
"On Sunday, help him book a private jet, create a new identity, and ask the people in Kingsman to come up with a backup winning package for Happy's parents a seven-day trip to England and a one-month trip to Europe.
Tell 007 Craig again that his vacation is over, and ask him to go to Swiss Bank Battis to take over 200 million US dollars in cash and go to the desert to meet Happy.
By the way, send a Kun-type spaceship and a complete set of equipment to Craig to prevent my money from being robbed."
"Understood, sir".
As soon as Happy heard this, he immediately wanted to go to the airport. William rolled his eyes and said, "Wait a minute, just listen to what Jarvis found out before leaving."
It would be okay if Pepper was in line with his aesthetics, but since he didn't like it, he didn't want to be alone with Pepper. Otherwise, with his reputation for women, who knows what Stark will think in the future.
With Happy's parents in William's hands, Pepper, who already trusted him, no longer had any worries.
"After Obama left the conference room, he used his spare mobile phone to call the desert base for nearly ten minutes, and then called a war reporter in New York.
However, without Tony's order, Jarvis, whose authority was restricted, did not find out the content of the call."
William frowned, "That's it?"
Pepper excitedly said, "These can already explain a lot of problems, Mr. Devonshire,
Although it's hard to guess the first phone call, Obadie's call to a war reporter must have been to expose your people's actions in the desert.
He wants to disrupt the rescue operation for Tony. Even if he is not the mastermind, it means that he does not want Tony to come back safely."
Obaday definitely doesn't want Stark to come back, and even now after the meeting, he may have used an unused number to call the tribe that tied Stark and negotiate terms.
"Pepper, can you find a way to cause some trouble for the Stark Group or simply to hold down Obadiah?"
Pepper immediately understood what William meant. Before rescuing Stark, it was best to get Obadiah into trouble and not have the energy to pay attention to this matter all the time.
Otherwise, if he notices something, he will definitely jump over the wall and simply agree to the conditions of tying up Stark's people, so that they don't have to force Stark to build the Jellicoe guide egg.
"No problem, I know some things about Obadiah from Tony, which should give him a headache for a while."
"Then you two should act separately." After William pretended to be embarrassed and attracted the attention of Happy and Pepper, he said, "There are people in England who have done some business with Obaday.
I won't go all out for this matter openly, I can only give you enough help secretly, so please be careful."
Pepper hurriedly said, "Understand, Mr. Devonshire, Happy and I are only here to save Tony. We won't bother with anything else.
Moreover, I believe that Tony will not be troubled when he comes back."
"That's good, I won't send you out. If you need anything, just call me."
William smiled as he watched Pepper and Happy leave with grateful faces.
He said this on purpose, just to test whether Stark would threaten him with this matter.
As for the cooperation with Obadiah to sell arms to the desert, he had already prepared for this day.
Even if Obadiah, a personal participant, can't get any evidence, and even if he wants to pin this matter on William, there must be a reasonable chain of evidence when the media breaks the news.
Otherwise, if the Americans had been fighting wars in the desert for so many years, would they not know that there was something wrong with the weapons in the hands of those tribes?
And there is no need for William to plug this leak. The participating desert base generals and higher-level people in the United States, once they find out that Obadei is in trouble, and it seems that Cohen is irreversible, they will spontaneously let Obadei go.
Shut up.
What's more, would William not be monitoring Obadiah?
After asking the suite butler to leave, William cast a forgetting spell on the butler's back.
He held the wine bottle and glass with a smile and walked to the small living room of the suite. When he opened the door, he saw Richard talking on the phone with someone.
Seeing William coming in, Richard quickly spoke to the person on the other end of the phone and hung up. But after hanging up the phone, the guy hesitated for a long time before saying,
"William, do you think there is really anyone in this world who can predict the future?"
William, who was holding the wine glass, was stunned. He believed it, of course he believed it. Ancient One with the Time Stone could do this, and when his strength reached a certain level, sometimes his whim could predict the future to a certain extent.
"What did the person who called you say to you?"
"I have several brokers in Las Vegas who specialize in finding entertainment for me. One broker told me that the magician in a small theater had a finale show where he guessed which state the audience was from."
Guess where it comes from?
This is a bit interesting. When Americans introduce themselves in theaters, concerts and other occasions, when they say their names, they usually also say where they are from.
Moreover, those who can travel to Las Vegas are at least not poor, and those who are not poor are generally not too resistant to the place where they work.
Of course, this is certainly not absolute, but it would be interesting if a magician could guess right all the time. No wonder people think this guy can predict the future.
But with such a high profile, aren't you afraid of attracting organizations like Hydra?
"Go and have a look?"
William said he went to see it, and Li Cha quickly got up. The two of them got into a Cadillac bulletproof car and went to the small theater with their bodyguards.
After receiving the baseball cap bought by the bodyguard outside the theater, and walking into the theater with only a dozen circular sofas, William saw a familiar face at a glance.
Julian Moore, coupled with what Richard said before about magicians being able to predict the future, William couldn't help but roll his eyes.
Sitting on the sofa, he said to Richard, "Let someone tell the owner of this theater that I will see the magician in the next show."
"No problem." Richard took out a stack of U.S. dollars from his pocket, handed it to the bodyguard and gave a few more instructions, then said to William with a smile, "It's time for the guy to talk about cooperation, right?"
"How much do you plan to value an automatic construction machine that can double the construction speed of building frames and reduce labor by half?"
An expression of surprise immediately appeared on Richard's face, but then he said with a grimace, "If it's really like what you said, I won't be able to buy half of the shares even if I sell my house."
"If this kind of machine appears on the market, you can increase your wealth by tens of billions just by selling it. Not to mention other countries, at least five construction companies in New York will definitely buy it, and at least 50 construction companies in the United States will directly deliver it.
Deposit".
"Give me a month, and I will make a set first and try it out in London. Then you talk to Abigail, and I promise to give you about 10% of the shares for you to subscribe for, how about it?"
With a twist of his tongue, Richard wanted 30% or 40%, but he knew that William was not short of money, so it was impossible to give him so many shares.
He will definitely use this company he dislikes as bait to win over other useful collaborators.
"20%, I will help you figure out any procedures for this kind of machine to enter New York, and I will also help you figure out the source of the holographic movie, and even help you find a suitable stadium in New York to play the holographic movie."
"Only 10%, but if you have the ability to convince Abigail, I can give you 15% at most." William didn't think much of this matter. Anyway, Abigail, her men, and the lawyers were here.
, I will definitely not suffer a loss.
At this moment, he only cared about whether the magician who was about to appear was a familiar face to him.
But it's been five minutes since I talked to Richard, why hasn't he come out yet?
At first, he was thinking about grinding it out to see if he could get a little or two more shares, but when Richard saw William frowning and looking at the stage, he immediately understood that his financial backer was impatient to wait.
Waved to the other bodyguards standing around, "Go and see what's going on. Why hasn't the magic show started yet?"
One of the five bodyguards immediately went to the backstage. A few minutes later, the bodyguard came back quickly with a business card with his profile picture printed on it, with some confusion and confusion.
"Boss, the manager of the theater said that the magician suddenly said that he couldn't bear the stomachache, so he hurriedly left the theater without even taking the magic tools that needed to be kept secret."
"Ha", without William saying anything, Richard was furious and was about to let some local snakes cause trouble.
When William saw a person who looked very similar to Nicolas Cage on the business card with his face printed on it, he said, "Forget it, probably because they saw us coming in with so many bodyguards, and the other party was afraid of being caught."
When we expose it, not only will your job not be guaranteed, but you may also be beaten.
It’s okay if you don’t watch, just go back to sleep.”
Richard nodded with some doubts and some special thoughts in his heart, and then left the theater and returned to the hotel with William.
Watching William walk into the elevator, Richard turned to his subordinates and said, "Go to the local gangster in Las Vegas for help. I want to see the magician."
Although the content and expression of what William had said before seemed unconcerned, Richard did not believe that the magician would have a stomachache by chance.
William, who was standing in the elevator, looked at the picture on the smart glasses, listened to Richard's words, and smiled. Someone was working as free labor. He just happened to see if a guy who looked similar to Nicolas Cage was real.
