i'm in marvel fifty fifty

Duke received notice from the military on the second day of the press conference, and Whitehall also had a strong interest in the steel suit.

Or when it comes to his current position, the decision can no longer be made based on personal preference. The steel suit has a huge impact on the war. Its powerful firepower and defense combined with intelligent simulation AI, coupled with flexible maneuverability, Apart from the cost, this is simply a war machine tailor-made for American soldiers.

This kind of weapon cannot be in the hands of civilians. The U.S. government needs to master all the core manufacturing methods of this weapon to ensure that this weapon will not be used to attack the American homeland.

Duke looked at the officer wearing a colonel's uniform in front of him without any expression on his face: "The United States is one of the countries in the world that implemented the intellectual property system earlier, but now it seems that it is going to be the first to violate some of the rules it has set."

The colonel looked at Duke condescendingly: "Mr. Duke, I am only responsible for informing you, but I am not responsible for answering your questions."

"I understand." Duke nodded and stretched out a hand: "Goodbye."

The colonel left the conference room.

Duke raised his hand and pressed his eyebrows, then leaned on the sofa.

He now uses non-commercial means to steal Stark's position, but accordingly, some of the pressure that Stark originally had to bear has been inherited by Duke, and now Stark has become an outsider.

As long as Stark himself doesn't commit suicide.

Duke closed his eyes and meditated. It is not that the manufacturing method of the steel suit cannot be handed over to the military and the government. Duke is different from Stark. He is not opposed to weapons. On the contrary, because he knows that there will be alien invasion in the future. Duke also wanted to increase the strength of the military to prevent them from being ravaged like a group of fish when the Chiritans invaded.

After all, New York is also the city where Duke lived. Duke's original industry was in New York. Stark also had some very important research projects underground in New York. New York cannot be destroyed.

"Chairman, Mr. Stark invites you to a party at his home."

Duke opened his eyes and reached for a card made of unknown metal from the secretary's hand. After Duke's fingerprint was pressed on the center of the card, a blue light intertwined on the card to look like Pepper.

"Duke, there's something between us that we need to talk about."

Duke said: "I think so too."

"Well... I know you're very busy right now, so I'd better ask you in advance if you have time. I think it's better to talk about some things in person."

Duke glanced out the window. The sun in Los Angeles was now hanging in the middle of the sky, and the warm sunlight shone on the wooden floor through the floor-to-ceiling windows.

"I'll find you this afternoon."

"it is good."

The Barbie-sized image of Pepper disappeared from the card, and the card lost its color, making it appear to be a disposable object.

Duke told his secretary: "Stop those meaningless meetings. Stark Industries currently has no idea of ​​cooperating with any other companies. New energy cooperation and publisher matters are left to Martin to take care of."

"Okay, Your Excellency Duke."

Duke will return to New York after meeting Tony. New York is not at peace recently. The gangs in Queens have been attacked continuously, which has made them anxious. Plus, there are magician Kick-Ass, Spider-Man and other superheroes. Without Duke's New York is like a child without a father, anyone can really kick it.

New York is Duke's territory.

It may not have been the case before, but it will be in the future.

Duke didn't want to make the news of his meeting with Stark public. It was better for the two of them to maintain a hostile attitude in front of the media and the government.

The United States has long passed the oligarchy period, and the big capitalists are hiding behind the scenes.

In a thousand-meter-deep pool, what can emerge from the surface are often the most frivolous aquatic plants and algae, and more things are below the surface.

When Duke found Stark, Pepper was replacing Stark's heart.

Seeing Duke coming down the stairs, Pepper, who was full of mobile phone oil, shook his hand and almost took Stark away. Seeing that Stark's face was blue and his eyes were bulging, Pepper quickly looked away and nervously pulled Stark away. Tucker's new heart was placed into the groove in his chest.

stab~

A burst of blue arc appeared, and Stark shuddered and sat up from his chair.

"Duke."

"Tony."

Duke stepped forward and gave Tony a hug. No matter what, Duke was Stark's savior, twice.

Although Duke has now stolen Stark's position, it has also helped him withstand the pressure. Of course, Stark also wants to bear this pressure. His character does not allow him to hide behind the scenes and can only stand in front of the stage.

So he plans to build another company, Stark Energy.

After listening to Stark's story, Duke asked: "You mean to separate the element reactor from the suit production process and apply it to a wider field?"

"Yes, as a new type of clean energy, the palladium reactor can be applied to the civilian field. Even if it is only used to generate electricity, it is safer than other energy sources."

"This is a good idea." Originally, after Stark became Iron Man, he completely shut down Stark's weapons manufacturing department and transformed the entire Stark Industries into Stark Energy. Now Duke occupies the original Stark Industries, but Stark still wants to create Stark Energy.

Duke speculates that the betrayal of Ethan and Obaday may have really brought something different to Stark, and he may really want to give something back to this society.

"I am not planning to take Stark Energy public, it will exist as a sole proprietorship."

Duke looked up at Stark and said, "It seems that the previous board meeting brought you a rather unpleasant meeting."

"Yeah, I hate feeling like I'm not in control of things."

"me too."

Duke said: "Stark Industries will purchase the right to use Stark Energy's element reactor patent. As long as Stark Industries still exists, Stark Energy will not lose money."

"I don't want to apply this kind of thing to weapons on a large scale, which will bring greater pain to the world."

Duke said to Pepper: "Please pour me a cup of tea, thank you."

Pepper glanced at Stark, who nodded, and Pepper walked out of the underground laboratory.

"Stark, I can probably guess the meaning of what Ethan said to you in the cave, as well as the bad memories that the experience during that time brought to you."

"I am opposed to the mass production of steel suits." Stark interrupted Duke.

Duke asked: "It seems that this meeting is not what I imagined. Since you are opposed to the production of steel suits and cooperation, why did you ask me to come here specifically to disgust me?"

Stark said: "Of course not, I am here for the start-up capital of the new enterprise. I plan to sell some more shares to you in exchange for some working capital."

Selling shares is also tricky. Although Duke is nominally the chairman, he does not hold many shares. Any more shares will not affect the existing balance of the board of directors.

Moreover, Duke only signed some orders with its own Duke Logistics after the press conference. With a lot of funds poured out from the left and right, it was able to buy these shares.

Duke understood, "It seems that those suits can only use inferior energy cores now, but if you change your mind, you can inform me at any time."

Duke has long heard about Stark selling shares, and now it seems that it is indeed...

The father and son have the same virtue and sell their shares when they are short of money. Anyway, they can buy them back when they succeed in research and development and make a lot of money.

As the top scientific research talent in the world, Stark Industries' R&D capabilities will drop significantly after leaving him. Even though Stark Industries' stock price is rising steadily, it will definitely face challenges after this. There will be a small decline and eventually stabilize at a corresponding level.

This level should be slightly higher than Hammer Industries, but not much higher.

So the price at which Stark sells his shares is still very appropriate at this moment.

During this period of time, Iron Man will probably be busy with starting a business, so the number of cosy sessions will be reduced, the symptoms of palladium poisoning will appear later, and Iron Man will have fewer troublesome incidents.

Counting the time, the Hulk is about to be born, and Duke has a lot to do.

So Duke stopped talking nonsense, signed the agreement with Stark, and boarded the return plane.
