Being a Digigod at Marvel

Chapter 21 The Vice President’s Promise

When all the Royal Knights went out to regulate the time difference between the digital world and the real world, the peaceful days on earth passed day by day, and soon it was the eve of the Stark Industry Expo.

"Ivan, how are the preparations for the exhibition going?"

"Director Gioia, everything is ready. The brochures, experience products and stage layout are all ready."

Ivan stood opposite Gioia, lowered his head and reported respectfully.

During this period of time, Gioia, who had received the blessing of the Knowledge Badge, had shown talents that were no less than his, and he was simply surprised by the fantastic ideas in his mind.

Without the hateful filter of looking at Tony Stark, Ivan saw Gioia as a better scientist than him, enough for him to respect.

"Very good, I really saw you right! Do a good job, Ivan!"

Gioia patted Ivan on the shoulder and showed a meaningful smile.

But Ivan didn't hear the deeper meaning of Gioia's words, and just said that he would personally supervise the expo.

What he didn't know was that Gioia knew all about his little tricks in private. Even CEO Catherine and Joey and Daniel, who didn't take care of things very much, also knew about it.

After all, these people are elites in the traditional sense, not clowns like Justin Hammer who can only parody Tony.

However, because of Gioia's obstruction, they did not expose this matter.

"I'll leave this to you. I have an important meeting tonight."

Looking at Qiao Ya's leaving figure, Ivan's expression showed a slight struggle.

People will have feelings when they get along with each other in daily life, especially with Qiao Ya, he feels that his talents are respected and appreciated.

Thinking that what he was going to do would definitely have a bad impact on Gioia and Meacham Industries, he felt unbearable for a moment in his heart.

But when he thought of the miserable life that his father and son had lived in the Soviet Union, while the Stark family of thieves had become the richest man in the world, the unwillingness and anger in his heart still overshadowed his friendship with Gioia.

After leaving the company, Gioia got into a commercial vehicle assigned to him by the company.

The driver took Joya to the left and right, and soon arrived at the Hilton Hotel.

"Mr. Gioia, right? Please come with me. Mr. Vice President has been waiting for a long time."

As soon as he entered the hall, a bodyguard in a black suit came up to him. After confirming Gioya's identity, he took him to a living room.

There is a person sitting in the living room. If you often pay attention to the news, you can recognize this person as the Vice President of this country-Monroe George.

"Hello, Mr. Gioia! Thank you very much for your help. If there is anything I can help you with, please feel free to ask."

The Vice President stood up, shook hands with Gioia enthusiastically, and made a very dangerous promise without asking why.

"You don't have to be too polite, Mr. George. Compared with this, how does Ling Qianjin feel? There is nothing uncomfortable after the mechanical prosthesis is installed, right?"

Looking at the man in front of him who couldn't even control his expression well, it was hard for Gioia to imagine that this was the vice president who stood at the top of the American power pyramid.

But considering that this guy seems to be an excellent daughter slave, all this seems to make sense.

You must know that in the original plot, in order to let his daughter who had both legs amputated stand up again, he did not hesitate to collude with Aldrich Killian and commit the felony of murdering the president.

In fact, Killian has started to contact him recently, but he still has a wait-and-see attitude towards the extremely dangerous terminal virus.

If nothing else happens, he will agree to cooperate with Killian in less than two years.

But at this time, Cheng Yaojin suddenly appeared halfway, and safer mechanical prostheses directly eliminated the Extremis Virus.

What's more, George always feels that Killian doesn't look like a good person, and it may be very dangerous to cooperate with him.

“What a great experience! Your company’s mechanical prosthetics are amazing.”

When it comes to mechanical prosthetics, George talks endlessly.

"After just two hours of adaptation, Shirley was able to get up and dance ballet."

"And when you dance ballet, you will not only feel tired and numb in your legs, but you may even feel hungry."

"Is this really a mechanical prosthesis? I suspect these are Shirley's original legs."

"I haven't seen Shirley smile from the bottom of her heart in a long time."

Gioia listened to George's story with a smile. He knew that what the other party needed now was a listener.

After George's excitement calmed down a little, he looked at Gioia seriously and said.

"Mr. Gioia, please let me do something for you! I think I still have some energy. As long as it's not too troublesome, please feel free to ask."

Being able to achieve the position of vice president, George still understands that there is no free lunch in the world, and the other party must have something up his sleeve.

"Mr. George is being humble. If the dignified Vice President of the United States only has 'some energy', how many people in the world can be said to have energy?"

Who doesn’t know how to wear a high hat?He said a few nice words without missing a piece of meat. Gioia made a few casual remarks, which made George's vanity feel unprecedentedly satisfied.

"Actually, there is nothing special. It's just that Meacham Industries may encounter many obstacles in its future development. Until then, I hope Mr. George will provide shelter for Meacham Industries within the scope of legal compliance."

George breathed a sigh of relief. This kind of thing is not uncommon in the political world. Every qualified politician has several closely related large companies and large financial groups.

As a capitalist, I am embarrassed to say that I am in business even if I don’t know a few city councilors or state legislators.

When he thought of Meacham Industries' miraculous products and its endless potential for the future, George felt hot inside.

"Mr. Gioya, I wonder if your company is interested..."

Before George could finish speaking, Gioia took the initiative to take over the topic.

"Of course, if Mr. George has the intention of promotion, Meacham Industries is also happy to provide support."

promotion?How else can a vice president be promoted?

This sentence is a promise given by Gioia, promising to help George win the election in the future.

George nodded with satisfaction and took the right hand extended by Gioia, with a smile that couldn't be hidden on his face.

In short, this meeting can be said to be a win-win contract.

For George, he could help Gioia even if it was just about his daughter, not to mention that the other party's request was within the scope of "legal compliance".

For Gioia, he doesn't expect George to be able to shelter Meacham Industries for long.

As long as the expo is over, it will be enough to ensure that Ivan's relics remain the company's property and will not be forcefully confiscated by official forces such as SHIELD and the FBI.

As for how long we can cooperate in the future, we can only take it one step at a time.

After all, if something like the "Sokovia Accords" appears in the future and the government wants to control superheroes, Gioia will definitely be in opposition.

When that time comes, no matter how strong the covenant is, it will be just a joke.
