Osborne Megacorp

"Mr. Tobias Fluor, let me be frank. I am very interested in ctOS technology, but Bloom seems to have marked this technology as not for sale. Do you have anything to say?"

Tobias, who was sitting opposite Harry, asked.

Tobias is an old man who lost his financial resources after Bloom left and became a homeless man.

"Why would Mr. Osborne be interested in this technology?"

"It's just as advertised - a smart city. This is quite practical technology, which I appreciate. If you have been to New York, you should know how crowded that city is."

In addition, Harry can be given his last barrier - information security. ctOS can help him block 99.9% of agents. Once the system is laid out in New York, New York will be meaningless to Harry.

In fact, as the creator of ctOS, many people really think that this technology can make cities better without much thought.

At least that's the case with the person in front of me.

Unfortunately, after Quinn, the man behind the scenes, took over, the original intention of this technology changed.

After discovering the goings-on between the company and investor Quinn, several developers left the company, and Tobias was fired as a result, leading to what he is now.

If this happened before, they might easily believe Harry's words and happily accept Osborne's investment.

But now, money alone wouldn't make it easy for them to do things for Harry.

"Someone once said this to us, but..."

"But they obviously didn't tell the truth." Harry said he could guess what was going on.

"After the system was developed and put into use, it was a time of high spirits, but several founders were kicked out of the team. Even fools knew there was something wrong."

"I understand that you don't trust me, but there is one thing we have the same goal for."

"Find what's hidden under ctOS and bring down Bloom."

Tobias had been looking into Harry's eyes as he spoke, looking for signs that he was lying.

"I heard that you want to buy Bruma Company." Tobias said.

"Yes, but they didn't sell it, so I was wondering if there was something else behind this company."

"Then you should go find DedSec."

Harry was a little speechless. Everyone was frightened. When they opened their mouths, they all told him to find this hacker organization.

But as far as Harry knew, the group wasn't all good.

He could definitely put these developers back together and invest them in working for him. Why would he want to find a sophisticated hacker organization?

"You are the developer of ctOS. I will not go to a group of unknown hackers again. As long as you nod, I can fund you and your previous team to continue to develop ctOS and retain operational rights. I don't need that thing. "

Harry will only install ctOS in cities with power grids. As long as it is a city using the Osborne power grid, the permissions of the software are meaningless to him. He just wants that function.

The Osborne Group needs such a system to assist the company in controlling the city, but it is not the kind of control that Quinn and Bloom have.

Harry had other expectations for this system than using it to peek into someone's privacy.

As for permissions, no matter how high software permissions or complex security protocols are, they are meaningless in front of Laining.

"As for the person behind the scenes you are afraid of... I think you can have some confidence in the Osborne Group, what do you think?"

As Harry spoke, he handed over an anonymous bank card, and on the side, news was playing on the TV that the Osborne Group had just delivered a batch of new power armor to the Ministry of National Defense.

Finally, after a long conversation, the old man finally relaxed and was willing to help Harry.

Tobias's nod was just the beginning.

The problems in this city are too serious, and ctOS has seized on too many powerful people. This allows Quinn, the man behind the scenes, to control the city and promote the construction of ctOS wantonly.

Thinking about it from another angle, Harry could take the opportunity to get rid of most of the officials in the city, and then support a few upright officials to help him manage the city.

Just like they do in New York.

"Great, I know you have a facility that's perfect for network work. That place is called the Bunker, right?"

"How do you know? I mean, that place has been abandoned for a long time, I don't think it can still be used." Tobias felt that this Harry Osborn was more of a hacker than a hacker, and he couldn't finish his words. There seemed to be nothing he didn't know.

"It doesn't matter. Osborne already has a construction team in Chicago, but they are not working now. I will let them go over and repair that place."

Harry was talking about Max, and with them, getting power to the bunker was no problem at all.

"One more thing... I don't know how you blocked ctOS, but once they find out that we restarted the bunker, they will probably send mercenaries to attack us."

Tobias is not exaggerating, Chicago is now considered Quinn's back garden.

However, this method is okay for dealing with poor technicians like them, but it is not a problem for the richer Harry.

"Well, this is indeed a problem. Let's end this before they find out that the mercenaries have been bribed by me. If they hire another group of mercenaries, I will be bleeding again."

Tobias didn't realize what Harry was talking about - so those mercenaries were actually from Osborn's side now?

Harry patted Tobias on the shoulder: "Go back to the bunker. My people will follow you there. Now I have to go meet another colleague of yours."

After getting rid of Tobias, Harry went directly to a bar in the Burnie area. He still remembered that another developer of ctOS often went to this place.

"Harry Osborn?"

As soon as he entered, some enthusiastic fans recognized Harry and exclaimed.

In this regard, Harry certainly responded to the enthusiasm of these fans.

"Yes, I'm Harry Osborn. In fact, I'm planning to book the place tonight. Osborne's treat, have fun!"

"I love Osborne!"

The people who come here to drink are all adults with mature minds, or most fans of the Osborne Group are relatively sane.

Harry heard that Tony was now holding Iron Man tours in various places, and his fans were much more enthusiastic. Men and women playing cosplay could be seen below Stark Tower every day.

After everyone toasted together, Harry sat at the bar.

"There has never been a rich person like you here. Can I take a photo with you? I want to post it on my social account. It will be a good advertisement. I don't think you will accept it." My royalties or something?"

Facing the bartender's request, Harry straightened his clothes and said yes.

"You're such a nice person. What would you like to drink?"

"Just beer, thank you."

"Can't tell the super rich have the same hobbies as us," the bartender opened a bottle of beer for Harry. "You didn't really come here just to drink, did you?"

"It's not true. I want to ask about a person, Lehman Kenny, or T-Bone Grady, whichever name you are familiar with will do."

The bartender looked to the side strangely after hearing these two names. Harry followed his gaze and saw a hooded man leaving the bar.

"Thank you brother."

Harry patted the bartender on the shoulder and ran out after the hooded man.

"Hey! Didn't you say you wanted to treat me?"

"On the table!"

The bartender looked at where Harry was sitting and saw a check on the table.

"Payment by check? Isn't that a bit too casual..." Halfway through, the bartender stopped and quietly collected the check.

"He's a rich man and he does all the right things."
