Osborne Megacorp
Chapter 41 Iron Man Hearing
"You seem to have done something big in New York, and you almost overshadowed me."
"Is it big? It's just about punishing criminals and eradicating evil. Congress is overreacting."
Harry and Tony started chatting at the door.
"Overreaction, I like that word, you know they overreacted this time too, right?"
"That's hard to say. Iron Man, such a popular thing, everyone wants to get one."
"Thanks for the compliment, but could you please stop using the word 'engage'? It doesn't sound very civilized."
"Really? This is obviously a daily term. I think you are overthinking it."
Bang bang bang!
"Mr. Harry Osborn, Mr. Tony Stark, please take your seats!"
The two glanced at the congressman, shook hands, and walked to their seats.
Debate quickly unfolded at the hearing.
The senator insists that Tony has a secret super weapon, which is Iron Man.
But Tony said that this was a "high-tech prosthesis" and Iron Man was himself. He also said that according to different state laws, handing over Iron Man would be a form of labor or some kind of body trade.
Tony made everyone laugh, and the atmosphere was very cheerful.
"I am indeed not a weapons expert, but I invited a weapons expert today. Let's hear what he has to say." Councilor Stern said with a smile.
One, not two, because Harry did not agree to the MP's invitation before the court session.
Stern asked Harry to side with him and promised more orders from the Ministry of Defense, but Harry felt little about it.
Only Osborne sells power armor. Whether you promise or not will not have a big impact.
As for the sale of weapons, Harry really does not intend to sell weapons to Congress.
Not to mention that he really doesn't have any high-tech weapons now. Secondly, a lot of them sold to Congress will go to Hydra. Weapons are much more difficult to control than power armor.
Nowadays, the military will try its best to recover the power armor that is occasionally destroyed on the battlefield, but it is hard to say about weapons.
On the other hand, Congress also promised to hand over the Mark Armor to the Osborne Group for imitation.
But Harry also refused. This was simply impossible.
So Harry could only sit in the back row.
"I'm going to subpoena Justin Hammer, the Department of Defense's current major arms dealer."
"Aren't you an arms dealer?" Tony turned to Harry and said.
"I am an armor supplier, which is somewhat different from arms. After all, firefighters may also need my equipment, but they cannot need arms." Harry nodded. This so-called "armor supplier" was also hyped by Harry. , indicating that he is a pure businessman.
The camera showed Harry and Tony, and Tony raised his hand.
"Please record that I saw Mr. Hammer walk in, and I thought, but I didn't see any weapons experts." Tony glanced at Harry, "The only 'armor supplier' who was even remotely close to the concept was sitting behind me. "
Harry spread his hands in front of the camera but didn't make any statement.
He was just here to listen and had no intention of getting involved.
"...I am indeed not a weapons expert. We all know who is the real weapons expert." Justin pointed at Tony and said, "Your father, Howard Stark!"
"...He was the father of military industry, but he was not a flower child, he was a lion."
"...Tony Stark builds an indestructible sword, but insists it's just a shield, asking us to trust him and hide behind him."
"...We live in a world full of dangers, and Mr. Stark may not always be able to predict the dangers."
"God bless Iron Man, God bless America."
Justin's speech was very serious. In short, it revolved around one idea. Iron Man is a weapon, which perfectly expressed what Senator Stern meant.
Next up was James Lord, who later became War Machine.
Congressman Stern asked Rhodes to read a specific paragraph of the report as he meant it, clearly taking it out of context to express that Iron Man was a dangerous weapon and should not be controlled by an individual.
Immediately afterwards, a video began to play on the screen, indicating that some areas had begun to imitate steel suits in an attempt to heighten the tension of the situation.
In fact, the imitation of similar armor has begun long ago, starting when the Osborne Group's power armor was put into the battlefield.
But no one targeted Osborn. After all, Harry was not hiding it, he sold it to the military immediately, and the military used it very well on the battlefield.
Looking at the picture on the screen, Tony operated the phone.
"Wait a minute...I'm in control of your screen. It's time to make things a little more transparent."
Tony played what exactly Stern’s so-called imitation was all about:
Most of the so-called imitations are just research that overestimates their capabilities. The imitators' eagerness for quick success has even led to bloody accidents. The so-called urgency of the situation is simply nonsense.
It looked like a giant robot. It fell down before taking two steps. The mounted machine gun was still firing. People around it had no time to escape. The scene was very bloody.
In this regard, Harry also secretly complained - in fact, the cost of Osborn Group's power armor technology is not that high, but Hammer Industries wants to directly copy Tony's.
But maybe the imitation of the power armor also failed?
Then a classic scene appeared on the screen - when a soldier was testing a replica of Hammer Industries, the steel suit rotated 180 degrees -
Snapped!
After the video was played, Hammer finally unplugged the display cable.
"It takes an average company 5-10 years, and Hammer Industries takes 20 years." Tony said without mercy.
"May I point out that the soldier in the video is still alive..." Hammer protested weakly.
But Harry did prepare a video to advertise this special occasion.
The unplugged TV turned on again, and Laining connected it.
"Indeed not. This soldier's spine was completely damaged, he was paralyzed from the head down, and he also suffered multiple organ injuries."
Everyone took a breath - good guy, it's worse than death.
"The Osborne Group provided the soldier with an artificial prosthesis implantation surgery to replace the soldier's spine and reconstruct the damaged nervous system..."
Before he finished speaking, Tony turned his head, looking like he had seen a ghost.
"How did you do that? I also have a video!" Tony said to Harry.
The soldier in the video is seen running around the field again and expressing his gratitude to Osborne.
"In short, this is the situation. The technology used in this soldier will be put on the market soon. Mr. Stark seems to have something to say."
Harry looked at his watch and made a sign of 10 to Tony, giving him ten seconds.
I saw the paused TV moving again, and the soldier was still on the screen.
"Fuck Hammer Industries!"
The moment he was extremely depressed, he had a bad mouth, which directly silenced Senator Stern and Hammer at the scene.
"You're welcome." Tony said suddenly.
"what?"
"Because I can prevent the threat of nuclear war. Iron Man is very useful. We are safe. The United States is safe. If you want my things, don't even think about it!"
"I alone can maintain world peace."
Everyone stood up, including Harry.
But Harry didn't stand up and applaud like everyone else. The commercial was over, and the content behind it wasn't important anymore.
He had to go outside and wait for Tony, otherwise there would be too many people and he wouldn't be able to leave.
"Is it big? It's just about punishing criminals and eradicating evil. Congress is overreacting."
Harry and Tony started chatting at the door.
