1187 Lao Tu Ivan? Take the initiative to send technology to William
On the Stark Group's side, William and his team waited for more than ten minutes for Abigail to sign the loan contract with Swiss bank Batis and others before officially signing the contract with the relevant departments of the American government.
The Americans and Englishmen in front of the TV looked at Abigail, who was standing between Stark and William, with a smile on her face. The feeling of envy, jealousy and hatred in their hearts, if it could be realized, would probably have overtaken Abigail.
I've been stared at countless times.
This is actually the second largest shareholder of Stark Group and the first female shareholder in the world.
Although it has a negative equity of 24 billion US dollars, everyone understands what is going on here.
Even if there are viewers who don't understand the situation, as soon as the TV station got the news from the scene and interpreted the reasons why William did what he did, Abigail immediately became the enemy and target of women all over the world.
Not to mention other things, just being a member of the Stark Group's board of directors has made Abigail, a woman with American nationality, the target of all major media.
Not to mention the annual dividend of at least 1.5 billion US dollars, which instantly made Abigail the female working emperor. This amount of money alone is already unacceptable.
New York is full of flowers and scenery, but when this picture reaches a small city in Siberia,
Anton Fanko, who was already old, looked at Tony Stark surrounded by others, and Abigail surrounded by William and Tony, and the hatred in his heart was not to mention how deep it was.
If it weren't for Howard Stark, he and his son would be like Tony Stark, dating William, the most famous nobleman in the world, and the Fanko family should also become a family that the world pays attention to.
Anton Fanko, as a top scientist who betrayed the polar bears and fled to the United States, after working with Howard Stark to build the Ark reactor,
However, he was expelled from the Stark Group by Howard and was exiled to Polar Bear, where he was imprisoned in Siberia all year round.
Seeing his face full of vicissitudes of life, covered in tattoos, and with long hair that looked more like the son of a gangster than a scientist, Anton raised his bony hand and placed it on Ivan Fanko's face,
With infinite hatred for the Stark family, love for his son, and reluctance to give up his life, he continued intermittently,
"I'm sorry, Ivan, I have lived in hatred all my life and neglected my care and love for you. Fortunately, I finally taught you my most precious things."
Of course Ivan Fanko knew that what his father was talking about was all the 'knowledge' in his head, and at this time, even if Ivan felt that his father, who was alcoholic, had a bad temper, and hit people at every turn, had many shortcomings, he would still
I can no longer say any words of blame.
Holding Anton Fanke's hand, holding back the sadness and tears, I heard Anton murmur with some relief, "Thank you for forgiving me, son, but I have to go see your mother and confess to her."
Feeling that the hand he was holding suddenly lost its strength and dropped, Ivan still didn't understand that his father was gone.
The tears instantly flowed down uncontrollably. He put his father's hand on his forehead. After Ivan closed his eyes and prayed, the cry could not help but come from his mouth.
At this time, a reporter came from the TV and said, ‘Due to shareholder repurchase and the intervention of Devon Hill Group, Stark Group has...
Not only will the falling stock price be stabilized, but after the market reopens, the market value is expected to reach the $300 billion mark again that day. It may even break through the $350 billion mark because of William.
If the prediction comes true, Tony Stark, who owns 29.6% of the shares, will become the first richest man in the United States with a net worth exceeding 100 billion.
The reporter's words instantly made Ivan Fanke's brain explode.
His eyes were full of strong hatred, staring at Tony Stark with a smile on his face on the TV.
But after seeing William and Abigail standing among the three, Ivan's expression couldn't help but become serious.
A person like him, who grew up in Siberia with difficulty as the son of a traitor, would probably not be alive today if he could grow up to be a good person.
Even if he had stayed in Siberia, he would probably have been killed when the polar bears disintegrated.
Picking up the phone and finding a number labeled Barney Ross, Ivan thought for a long time before gritting his teeth and dialing it.
"Hey, who are you?" came a deep voice.
"Barney, it's me, Lao Tu".
"Who?" Barney of The Expendables immediately recognized the voice of his former teammate and former manager, "Damn it, man, where have you been in the past few years?"
Hearing Barney's concerned tone, Ivan finally showed a smile on his face, "My father was paralyzed a few years ago and needed my care.
And you have also retired, so I am not interested in doing anything as an agent, so I just went back to Siberia to take care of my father."
"Sorry, man", Barney apologized, then smiled, "Tell me, I haven't contacted you for so long, you must have something to do with me now, what do you need me to do?"
"My father is dead, and I want to fulfill my only wish for him."
Barney said without thinking, "I'll gather the team members right now."
"No, no, no, Barney, they have retired, I don't want to disturb them anymore."
Ivan really thought so in his heart, but at the same time he also knew that if Gunnar, Christmas, and Yin Yang knew that the person he was going to deal with was Tony Stark, they would definitely report it to William immediately.
As for the two firemen, Caesar and Highway, there is nothing they can do to help in this matter.
"For the sake of dragging you out of the dead, man, do me a favor."
Barney, who had been a mercenary for nearly thirty years, still didn't understand when he heard these words that Ivan meant that he only believed in himself.
Looking at his three daughters playing in the swimming pool outside the villa, Barney thought for more than ten seconds before saying, "What do you want me to do?"
"Keep an eye on Tony Stark for me. If possible, I want to know all his travel arrangements."
"Are you crazy?"
Barney instantly looked back at the TV, and on the TV William was holding Abigail, and Stark, who was standing on Abi's left, were accepting questions from reporters.
"You know what you're talking about? And who Tony Stark is with now?"
"I'm watching the news too, Barney." Ivan's expression became equally serious, "But my father's only wish in the past thirty years is to prove to the world that the Stark family is just a thief.
Howard Stark stole the technology belonging to the Vanko family, and viciously drove my father back to the polar bears, leaving him decadent and helpless in the cold Siberia for more than thirty years."
Ivan suppressed his anger and tried his best to keep his tone calm and growled, "Barney, the money we have earned over the years has long allowed me to live comfortably.
But I can't let my father go to see my mother with a dishonorable reputation."
Barney was stunned. If that was all, it might be a good thing for his boss.
After all, if Tony Stark's reputation is discredited, William will really become the only inventor of the super suit.
Stark may even be forced to step down as chairman of Stark Group due to pressure from public opinion and investors.
But Barney immediately understood that these were all his own guesses. What if William didn't want Stark to have problems?
Then what he and Lao Tu will face will most likely be their former teammates.
And it might even harm his wife and children. "You should understand what kind of person my boss is. I can't risk my wife and three daughters."
The only thing I can do for you is to keep it secret for you."
"Don't worry, in the past few years in Siberia, I may know more about Mr. Devonshire than you do."
Ivan opened the drawings left by his father and continued with a smile,
"Not only do I have the original blueprints for the Ark reactor, but I also have an energy weapon specifically suitable for super armor.
You do me a favor and I'll send this information to our old secret contact point in Switzerland. If anything goes wrong,
Just give the information to Mr. Devonshire, and I believe he will let you go for the sake of technology and our past achievements."
"I, I", Barney looked at the swimming pool outside the house again, and saw his daughters waving hello when they saw him,
Just when he was about to refuse, he heard Ivan whisper, "Barney, you owe me your life."
Hey, Barney sighed heavily, his trustworthiness is probably the reason why he can live till now, otherwise he would have died among the dead back then.
"how do you want to do it?"
"Looking at Tony Stark, all you have to do is tell me, where will he go besides his home and company?"
"clear".
After hanging up the phone, Ivan immediately packed up his things and took all the information away, but left his father's body in this house.
Opening the door, I looked longingly at my father lying on the old iron camp bed. Then he turned on the old round headlight switch, turned on the secret surveillance in the room, closed the door, and left without looking back.
After turning left and right for a few hundred meters, he came to a three-story building. He put the backpack with the information in the secret room. Ivan quickly went upstairs, squatted on the rooftop with a telescope, and looked at hundreds of people.
The window of his father's house meters away.
Time passed minute by minute, and an hour later, when no one came to arrest him secretly, Ivan understood that Barney probably did not betray him.
I secretly let out a sigh of relief.
This is also the reason why he only looks for this guy Barney Ross.
Returning to the room on the third floor, he turned on the computer monitor and looked at the picture of his father on the surveillance camera. Ivan silently put on his clothes and lay on the single bed, waiting all day long.
After truly confirming that no one was looking for him, he called the local cemetery and asked them to send someone to make arrangements for his father's funeral.
After hiding in another place for three days, Ivan finally felt relieved about Barney and then copied all the information and hid the original drawings.
I took a hard drive and drove a second-hand car hundreds of kilometers before getting on the plane to Switzerland.
After wandering around the area and observing for two days, he made another copy of the hard drive in his hand and placed it in the bank he and Barney used to use.
After sending a message to Barney, he bought a car and went directly to Hamburg, where he began to concentrate on building his own revenge weapon.
.......
After acquiring the shares of Stark Group, at the cocktail party that night, while William was chatting with Stark, he saw that the blue vein stripes on his neck disappeared.
After a moment's thought, he realized that Stark was probably drinking that dark green relief drink.
He looked around and said with a low smile, "Has the problem of palladium poisoning been solved?"
Stark's expression suddenly changed, he looked around guiltily, and then whispered, "You're not going to say something big enough to affect the stock price, are you?"
"You should worry about whether your mouth is strong enough." William rolled his eyes at Stark, who at this moment thought he could solve the palladium poisoning.
In the month since he built the Mark 3, Stark has used it three times in total. He really does not take the matter of palladium poisoning to heart.
And if you don't activate the Mark Armor, you just use the Ark Reactor as a magnet to absorb the bomb fragments in his heart.
He will not suffer from severe palladium poisoning for fifty years.
After all, if it is just used as a magnet, a piece of palladium element can keep the Ark reactor on his chest functioning for decades.
Probably only when he used the Mark Armor more and more frequently, consuming more palladium element energy, and his body developed drug resistance, and it was difficult to clean up the heavy metal in time, did he really panic.
"Have you never thought about designing the Mark armor to have an independent energy source?"
"Is it necessary?" Stark was stunned, and when he saw William looking at him like an idiot, he immediately understood, "fk, fk, fk, I'm such an idiot, I'm such an idiot."
The energy used by the armor does not need to be provided by the energy in the chest, so it will not aggravate the flow of heavy metal palladium in the body, and he does not need to drink those unpleasant and ugly antidote solutions every day.
Stark was so happy that he wanted to hug William, but as soon as he stretched out his hand, William held him down.
"It's okay, beauty. As for you, if you don't want to be beaten, just be honest."
When the people around heard Stark's cry, they saw his excited expression and William's face full of disgust.
Everyone thought that William had told Stark something, which gave him a sudden inspiration or solved some problem.
Everyone couldn't help but think, it seems that when Stark's shares open again in three days, they must rush to buy them, and buy them with all their strength.
After all, what William and Stark, two of the smartest people in the world, have come up with together must be some incredible technology.
Rush to buy stocks now, just in time to make big profits when new technologies come out.
When shareholders like Old Drake, Hans, and Richard saw Stark's appearance, they couldn't help but gather around him.
"Do you have any good ideas?"
Stark was stunned for a moment. He would not tell this. Then William, who was holding Abigail's hand, smiled and said, "Tony and I think that if we shrink the huge Ark reactor in the industrial park,
Can we officially enter the energy industry?"
"God, are you two kidding me?" Old Drake covered his chest and tried to calm himself down.
Then he said with a red face, "I think we should hold another board meeting now, and all shareholders can acquire shares within 1% in the market."
Seeing everyone looking at him and Stark, William smiled and shrugged, "I don't have to.
This time, it took a lot of favors and connections to get the U.S. government to agree to Abigail's entry into the board of directors. The 14.9% figure is probably the limit they can bear.
You guys are playing around, I have no objection.”
A strong 1% is of no use to William, and so many shareholders and other investors go to the market to grab stocks,
Let alone 8% of the eight shareholders, it would be good to grab half of it. After all, stock investors are not fools, and not many would sell at this time.
And Stark, who still has more than 10 billion US dollars in loans, will certainly not refuse.
"Okay, since no one denies Mr. Drake's decision, the matter is settled." William looked at everyone nodding excitedly and said with a smile, "As for the official documents, Abigail will sign it for me.
If you are okay in a week, I will formally invite you to attend the opening ceremony of Dinosaur Island.
If anyone wants to hunt, they can go a day earlier."
"No problem, I will definitely go a day or two early," Hans agreed without hesitation.
Others looked at each other and became even more enthusiastic about William, the person who could make them more money.
