Osborne Megacorp

Chapter 81 Space Fighter

The construction ship returned to the surface and everything changed.

Those fools who "enlivened the atmosphere" at the press conference were filled with regret. Those innocent reporters - to put it bluntly, they were Osborne's mouthpieces - had the opportunity to enter the spacecraft and take photos.

"Osborn shocked the world again! The super spaceship returned successfully, and Harry Osborn personally piloted the spacecraft!"

"What did Osborne do during the month he disappeared?"

Regarding these issues, Harry also kindly expressed that he put a satellite in the sky and did not do any great work.

With Harry's confirmation, the mystery of the huge artificial satellite was solved - it was Osborne's satellite!

From the perspective of ordinary people, since the appearance of Iron Man, the changes in the world seem to have gradually become fantasy.

Iron Man that can replace nuclear deterrence, a giant that can smash urban areas to pieces, unmanned iron soldiers, nuclear fusion, neural implants...

Now it's a super spaceship.

The evaluation report on the Osborne Skilled Type [-] was immediately sent to the Weapons Development Department of Congress, and the director of the Weapons Development Department, Rhodes, approached Harry again.

Congress wanted Harry to develop a military aerospace aircraft for troop projection and strategic bombing, in short, weapons development.

The thrusters and energy technology on the engineering ship are beyond existing technology. This thing is as black technology as the Mark armor.

In the eyes of Congress, Osborne had never been interested in weapons development, so he had little hope.

But after the first conversation, they found that Harry actually relented... even though the price was high.

"It's really interesting. Two years ago, my father was still worried about the cancellation of orders by the military. He was almost kicked out by a group of greedy old men, and the company was almost acquired. Now Congress has taken the initiative to come to the door."

Harry said with a smile while rubbing his chin.

Rhodes frowned and looked at the detailed bill issued by Harry, which listed the budget needed to develop aerospace fighters.

"This is too much, 200 billion in research funding every year? Why don't you grab it?" Rhodes was dumbfounded. "Wait a minute, don't you have ready-made technology?"

This is just the engine development of the aerospace aircraft, not the entire aircraft!

Harry spread his hands, "Your money was stolen anyway, what's wrong with sharing it with me?"

Although others may not know it, as one of the sponsors and partners of Congress, Harry still knows some inside information.

For example, military spending this year is close to 6000 billion US dollars.

And 6000 billion... seems like a lot, that is for conventional weapons.

If S.H.I.E.L.D.’s Space Carrier is placed in front of Congress, not to mention 200 billion, you have to buy it for 2000 billion, and you have to feel that you have made a profit after buying it.

Although that thing didn't have any outstanding achievements - the first one was blown up by the alien Loki, which was somewhat excusable, but the next three ships were destroyed by Captain America and Black Widow as soon as they appeared. It was scrapped.

All I can say is that it is worthy of SHIELD. If you have money, you will be willful.

"Research and development is very expensive, and this is an aerospace fighter - it's different anyway. I know you have been doing some research on aerospace carriers. Has there been any results after spending tens of billions on that thing every year? "

Harry spread his hands.

But Harry knew that that thing had actually achieved some results, but was stolen by SHIELD.

The price has already been set, it just depends on what Congress thinks.

As for why Harry suddenly relented - it would take a few years to develop the aerospace plane, right?By that time Norman was in office.

Rhodes thought for a while and said, "So you don't plan to sell the ready-made thrusters and spaceships?"

Harry shook his head, he was just here to steal money.

Selling finished products is too stupid.

"Okay, okay, I will express your feelings to the Congress." Rhodes held his forehead. He was not a member of the House anyway, so it was not his turn to make the decision.

The first negotiation was fruitless, Rhodes went back with Harry's conditions, and the military committee needed to discuss it for a while.

The Osborne Group will also help them think about it and try to let them pass.

Anyway, giving money to someone is not a gift, it is better to give it to yourself.

After seeing Rod off, Harry called Frank.

After landing, Harry assigned Frank a separate task: to recover a special projectile somewhere in East Africa.

"Frank, did you find anything?"

"Found it. It's 101 meters different from the coordinates you gave me. The sensor data has been collected...the bomb has been planted."

"Very well, come back then."

As Harry issued the order, the projectile was blown into pieces. Not only that, these fragments would be thrown into the Atlantic and Indian Ocean respectively, completely destroying the body.

Feeling the data returned, Harry smiled. All indicators were normal.

This mysterious projectile, if it were part of something like a spaceship, it would be called an escape capsule.

And if it is part of a strategic aerospace aircraft, it should be called a drop pod.

Judging from the sensor data, the projection cabin can basically satisfy the needs of ordinary people without losing arms or legs. However, this level of projection will still cause strong discomfort to the passengers, and in severe cases, it may even cause various internal injuries. .

A trained soldier can overcome these problems to a large extent, but suborbital airdrops are still more dangerous.

But these are for ordinary people.

And if you change it to a bomb...

Considering the projection height and bomb power, the error of 101 meters is almost negligible.

Therefore, the aerial bomber that Congress wants is really not something too far away for Osborne.

"Although I don't know what you are thinking, I have to remind you that your investment in aerospace technology has cost the company a lot of money." Hurley's voice pulled Harry back from his fantasy.

Harry slapped his head, that was indeed a problem.

Although the existing business is very profitable, the things Harry does are not low-cost.

Except for biotechnology, which is not very expensive - most of them are obtained by cheating, others are like nuclear fusion power stations. Although the profits are considerable, it will take time to make back the money.

Many biotech companies have not come up with large-scale sales of drugs such as active enhancers. This stuff is the real huge profit.

The real production cost does not even exceed 20, but the least effective 1-sex active enhancer alone can be sold for a sky-high price of 1000 million.

The pursuit of eternal life by rich people is really crazy.

After thinking for a while, Harry said: "Then just produce another batch of Type 1 active enhancers. In addition, Dr. Connors has finished developing a new drug."

The original enhancer has been diluted into several versions. When fully used, type 123 can probably extend the user's life by 10-20 years. Those old guys like it very much.

Harry felt much better when he thought that he could cut these old guys' leeks.

That's a lot of money.

In addition, the development of a wound healing spray derived from it has also been completed, which is also a huge sum of money.

"Very good, it seems that our chairman and CEO has already figured out how to harvest wealth." Hurley joked, tapping the tablet in his hand.

"Now Osborne is making progress in the world every minute, so how can his cash flow be cut off?"

That being said, before the New York War, financial capital still maintained considerable control over the world. Harry was quite envious of these people now because they could make money even while lying down.

Taking away other forces and enjoying Osborne exclusively by yourself ensures the independence of the Osborne Group, but just like Stark Industries, independence also means isolation.

If it hadn't been for cheating, he would have been cut into pieces by others.

In Iron Man 3, Tony was in the United States, and his home was blown up by an armed helicopter.

"Not only that, I have also thought about how to spend the money. Osborne Aerospace needs to expand its scale. We need our own outer space operation team."

"So the president doesn't plan to continue being an astronaut, right?" Hurley joked.

Harry thought as he took off his coat: I'll see if you still have the energy to make a joke later.
