Chapter 152: Enter the village quietly, don’t let anyone shoot you
Felicia Wufuck said that to help Bai Ye manage the company, it turns out that one must not only be competent, but also capable, right?
But what else can she do?
As a small employee, there is definitely no way to contend with the evil boss’ money rules.
He sat on Bai Ye.
"Another hard day!"
Bai Ye exhaled a breath and sighed.
About half an hour later, the phone Bai Ye put aside rang.
"Tony?"
Bai Ye looked at the caller ID and picked up:
"What do you want from me? Are you planning to invite guests to an IM party again?"
"I have something to tell you." Tony's careless voice sounded: "Are you free tonight?"
Felicia, who was eating a banana, blurted out and looked at Bai Ye with wide eyes:
"Tony Stark?"
Bai Ye reached out and pushed Felicia's head down, telling this curious baby not to interrupt her call with Tony.
"What's the matter? Can't you talk about it on the phone?" Bai Ye said, "I'm a little busy right now. I'm busy training a little secretary."
"It's an important thing!" Tony said with an emphasis, "You will definitely regret it if you don't come."
"Okay, send me the address. Give me another hour and I'll come over."
"One hour...you guy, stop taking drugs all the time, it's not good for your health."
"Tony, why do you always refuse to admit the truth? I am really better than you."
"cut--!"
Tony hung up the phone.
…
In Tony's villa.
Underground laboratory.
On his left hand, there is a replaced third-generation Ark Reactor - the one in Stark Industrial Park is the first-generation Ark Reactor. Tony created the second-generation Ark Reactor in a cave in Afghanistan. After returning to New York, he used modern high-tech Sophisticated equipment, the third generation Ark reactor manufactured by Tony.
On the right side is a testing machine, which shows the toxin content in Tony's blood, 5%.
"It's so ironic that the device that kept me alive was also the thing that was about to kill me."
Tony pouted.
At this moment, Tony has discovered that the Ark Reactor can prevent the shrapnel in his chest from flowing into his heart, but it will poison him with palladium heavy metal. Once the toxin content in the blood detection device reaches 100%, Tony will GG. And it was a very painful death.
On his open chest, with the Ark Reactor as the center, black blood vessels like spider webs appeared, which looked extremely terrifying.
"Sir, maybe you need a surgical operation to remove all the shrapnel in your chest."
Jarvis reminded.
"But Jarvis, didn't you listen to those bullshit doctors?" Tony rolled his eyes and said, "The success rate of surgery is only 30% at most. I will not trust my life in the hands of those quack doctors! Damn it. ! Why did the most powerful of those quacks drive drunk and break his own hands to pieces?"
After discovering that he was poisoned by palladium, Tony thought about looking for treatment. First of all, he was the top surgeon at the Stark Family Private Hospital. He was told that he only performed 30% of Tony's surgeries successfully. However, he recommended Tony to find a doctor named Stephen Strange. Only this person has the medical ability to create miracles.
It's a pity that Tony went to find this Stephen Strange in excitement, only to find out that he had just fallen off a cliff in a car accident. The most important pair of hands for a surgeon were completely disabled. How about a scalpel?
"Sir, things are unpredictable." Jarvis said: "But I think maybe you should give up controlling your armor. When you use the Ark Reactor to run the armor, the Ark Reactor will run at high speed and accelerate. You are poisoned by the heavy metal palladium."
During this period of time, Tony has not been idle. Apart from occasionally taking time out to hold an IM party with Bai Ye, he spends his time either modifying his armor in the basement or putting on a layer of steel armor. , traveling around the world to perform heroic acts and fight against terrorists.
Especially the terrorists in Afghanistan were plowed over and over again by Tony. He was a small-minded man.
The firepower of the terrorists had nothing to do with Tony's tortoise shell. If they could get some nuclear bombs, cloud bombs and other weapons of mass destruction, they might have a chance to kill Tony. They could only withdraw with hatred after sacrificing a large number of manpower. In the urban area, he ran into the remote corners of the mountains, where Tony couldn't get back his gas money even after a trip, so he was able to survive.
Tony has successfully helped Ethan's hometown to be saved from the rule of terrorists, and then discussed with the US military in Afghanistan to send troops to station. Tony also established a charity foundation and invested a large amount of money in Ethan to help He resumed the construction of his hometown, and now Ethan has returned to Afghanistan to shine for his father and fellow villagers - because Tony is a person with clear grudges, and without Ethan's help, he would have died long ago, so after returning to New York, That's when he went back to Bowison.
It was also during this period that Tony drove the steel armor as a supercar, and after replacing more than a dozen Ark reactors, the phenomenon of palladium heavy metal poisoning also appeared.
"This is not okay! I am Iron Man! Iron Man is me!" Tony said firmly: "Jarvis, haven't you seen during this time? There are too many evils in this world! The world can't live without me. , without me to protect the peace of the world, this world will cry!"
Jarvis said quietly: "Sir, I think you overestimate your impact on the world. Without you, the earth will still function as usual."
Tony snorted: "Jarvis, you are just jealous of me. You are jealous that I have such a high level of attention, but no one cares about you."
Well, actually Tony was bullshitting.
He is unwilling to give up his identity as Iron Man. In addition to being a stinker, he really enjoys the feeling of being noticed by the world. There is another fundamental reason, and that is that he feels that becoming Iron Man is his own salvation.
He once frantically developed military weapons and became the world's number one arms dealer. Because of Obadi's blind manipulation and the properties of the weapons themselves, countless ordinary people died under the weapons manufactured by the Stark Group.
Before being kidnapped in Afghanistan, Tony was indifferent to this. However, when he personally experienced the pain of being blown up half to death by his own weapon, and witnessed terrorists using his weapon to massacre unarmed innocent people, Tony discovered that he was an arms dealer. , it carries original sin. What he did in the past has killed many people. Now he comes to be Iron Man and protect the world, in order to redeem that sin for his past self.
Jarvis: "If saying this can make you happy, sir, then okay, I admit, I am jealous of you, sir."
"Haha." Tony smiled disdainfully: "Jarvis, you are just a tough talker. If you are jealous, just say it directly. You have to add some prefixes..."
In fact, Tony also understood that Jarvis was using his method to comfort himself.
"But if I give up my identity as Iron Man..."
Tony reached out and covered his chest, his eyes becoming firmer:
"Absolutely impossible!"
Everyone has to die, the key is whether the death is worthwhile.
A person's life should be spent like this: when he looks back on the past, he will not regret for wasting his years, nor be ashamed of being inactive - so that when he is dying, he can say: My whole life and everything. All the energy has been dedicated to the most magnificent cause in the world - the struggle for the liberation of mankind.
"Damn it!"
Tony patted his head and showed a trace of remorse. He shouldn't have read some red books out of curiosity, causing his thoughts to be mixed into something that didn't belong to the United States. He was Does the world's richest man and one of the largest capitalists in the United States really want to give up the opportunity to extend his life for ordinary people who have never met him?
No one is not afraid of death.
Tony is no exception.
After a moment of silence, Tony suddenly smiled bitterly: "Forget it, I'm actually dead in Afghanistan. It's a blessing to be able to return to New York and start a second life. Now it's just a matter of giving this life back. It's nothing. Big deal!”
night.
Tony drove a big red sports car and ran wildly on the road. With the roar of the engine, he started to cry and howl:
"I am Iron Man——!"
When the car arrived at its destination, a banquet hall in Manhattan, Tony looked like a serious person again. He straightened his suit, entered the cocktail party, and got together with Bai Ye.
"Man, you look a little pale, don't you?" Bai Ye snapped his fingers, ordered a glass of wine for Tony, and said with a smile, "Isn't it the sequelae of the last IM party that has been going on until now?"
"Fart!" Tony took the whiskey that the bartender brought back, took a sip, and said, "This is the sequelae I suffered last night!"
"Then you can't do this?" Bai Ye said: "Even if we had an IM party last night, more than ten hours have passed and you haven't recovered yet?"
Tony: "..."
Forget it, he really couldn't gain any advantage in arguing with Bai Ye in this regard. Who makes Bai Ye young and strong, but he is already nearly forty years old?
"Okay Bai Ye, let's get down to business." Tony changed the subject and said, "You're going to be in trouble, you're going to be in big trouble."
"You're the only one who keeps telling me that you're not surprising?" Bai Ye looked at Tony with disdain: "Let's be honest, do you have something to ask of me?"
"Tch, what do I need to ask of you?" Tony said: "No kidding, to be honest, there is really trouble this time. I have someone on Capitol Hill who has received the news, and those giants are already preparing to take action. . They are trying to lobby Congress and the White House, and in the name of national security, they are preparing to forcibly plunder our Ark reactor technology, steel armor technology, and even your human body enhancement technology. Do you think we are in big trouble?"
The smile on Bai Ye's face faded: "I have long expected that the Ark Reactor is related to the new energy revolution and may involve an industrial chain worth tens of trillions of dollars. How big a piece of cake is this? Those giants They will definitely not let us occupy the Ark Reactor technology without sharing it with them. They dare not go to war with us directly and choose to incite the government to come forward and rob us of our things. This is the only point for these rats in the gutter. It’s time to make a career.”
"Are you afraid?" Tony probed: "If you are afraid, maybe you can compromise with them. It doesn't cost much. As long as you are willing to sell those people some shares of Venus Energy at a low price, no one will want them immediately." I’m causing trouble for you.”
"I told you, they are just a bunch of rats in the gutter." Bai Ye chuckled: "Do you think I need to compromise with some rats in the gutter? It is precisely because I have anticipated this possibility, so I let my subordinates people, established a Pluto security company with hundreds of people, which were basically elite action teams affiliated with the Osborne family. I injected them with the Extremis virus for free, and became super-enhanced people, preparing to expand their super powers. Bodyguard business. But if some people think that the Osborne family is easy to bully and want to steal what belongs to our family, then it is not impossible for these super bodyguards to become super killers."
"Hundreds of super-enhanced people?" Tony was surprised and said, "Were they all the same as they were against Obadi that night?"
"Absolutely." Bai Ye shrugged and said, "So do you still think I need to be afraid of those rats in the gutter? With this power, the owner of the White House would not dare to speak loudly to Osborne, otherwise , I only need to send at most 20 people, which is enough to penetrate the current security measures of the White House."
"No, Bai Ye, are you having such a big time?" Tony moved his butt, further away from Bai Ye, and said, "I am sitting with you now, and I am afraid that a nuclear bomb will fall from the sky and kill me. "
How can you allow others to sleep soundly on the side of the couch?
Now that Bai Ye has such a strong power, the White House and the Pentagon must almost regard Bai Ye as a thorn in their flesh, right?
"What are you afraid of?" Bai Ye smiled faintly: "Even if the White House and the Pentagon neutralize me now, they can't kill hundreds of my super-enhanced people at once? They have already dispersed in small teams. People all over the world will not gather together unless necessary, but once I die, a revenge fund of tens of billions of dollars will be launched immediately, and all people related to my death will be killed. I think, The White House and the Pentagon are not so unwise as to fight me to the death!"
"Awesome!"
Tony gave Bai Ye a thumbs up, he couldn't accept it.
"You're not bad either!" Bai Ye took a sip of wine and said: "Your strong artificial intelligence Jarvis and your steel armor are not just decorations? I think if you die abnormally, your strong artificial intelligence The artificial intelligence Jarvis is free, plus he can control those steel armors you made, are you still worried that no one will avenge you?"
Tony chuckled, didn't answer, and continued drinking.
Yes, Tony is not a person who repays kindness with kindness. On the contrary, he will retaliate. Just as the terrorists in Afghanistan kidnapped him, as a result, Tony has probably killed tens of thousands of people. His power has shrunk on a large scale, and he has been reduced to a small player with no strength. .
If someone really dares to let Tony die abnormally, then Jarvis is not a vegetarian. It can be seen from the confrontation between Jarvis and Ultron. This is a powerful weapon that can invade the nuclear bomb systems of all countries in the world in a few seconds. Artificial intelligence, if Tony goes crazy, it is not impossible that the entire world will immediately fall into doom.
Tony and Bai Ye did the same thing. Kidnapping America was something that could be done but not said. If Stark and Osborn were gone, what would the world do?
"So let those clowns dance as they please!" Bai Ye smiled contemptuously and said, "I'm not in a hurry to deal with them immediately. I'll wait until they jump out one by one and show their greedy faces, then I will They catch them all in one fell swoop.”
Tony: "Are you going to kill them all?"
"Of course." The corner of Bai Ye's mouth curled up: "Since they dare to steal our things, they must be ready to kill us. How can we repay kindness with kindness? Repay kindness with kindness, repay resentment with kindness! Forgive them is God. things, and my mission is to send them to see God!”
"Then it seems I don't have anything to worry about." Tony said with a smile: "Bai Ye, I will follow you and hold your lap. If anyone dares to deal with us two, you will send your super men. Fuck them!”
"It's easy to talk." Bai Ye asked: "You have noticed that someone wants to deal with us. Do you have a list?"
"The people behind the scenes are very hidden." Tony thought for a while and said: "But there is one force that is certain, Koch Industries. Previously, the leader of the oil and energy giants was Roxon. Now Roxon is in ruins, and Koch Industries has swallowed it up. Many oil fields and refineries that originally belonged to Roxon are now vaguely leaders among the oil and energy giants."
"Is it the Koch Octopus?" Bai Ye smiled slightly and said, "I understand. Next, I will have people investigate the Koch Octopus. By coincidence, my Venus Energy is also trying to acquire an energy giant!"
“You want to swallow up Koch Industries, a giant worth hundreds of billions of dollars?”
Tony looked at Bai Ye in surprise.
"Can't you?" Bai Ye sighed and said, "Tony, I have always been a kind person. Don't laugh, haven't you noticed? I am really kind! If others don't mess with me, I won't To provoke others. You see, I already have hundreds of super-enhanced people, and I can continue to produce these enhanced people on the assembly line. To put it bluntly, I have the possibility of ruling the world, but I am a kind person and maintain the greatest I restrained myself and didn’t do that. The world should appreciate my painstaking efforts. People like Koch Industries don’t know how to cherish or be grateful. So why should I be polite to them? Koch Industries is huge. , but if all the Koch family members die, and then I negotiate with the Koch family members to acquire Koch Industries for $1, no one will object, right?"
Tony: "..."
Yes, indeed no one objects anymore. Everyone is dead, so who can object?
Tony smiled, but couldn't stop laughing. He felt that Bai Ye was a bit too extreme. If Bai Ye really swallowed up Koch Industries like this, then many American capitalists would be in danger and fear that they would become the next generation. A Koch octopus, right?
Even Tony would not believe that Bai Ye would use this method to deal with others again.
So capital must not gather its strength to do Bai Ye together? But Bai Ye has the Extremis Virus technology in his hands. If he wants to deal with him, he will dare to produce more super-enhanced people. If this continues, is it possible that the world will be destroyed?
Tony frowned, thinking about his words, trying to persuade Bai Ye not to be so violent. It was okay to deal with the Koch Octopus, but not too blatantly, and don't make yourself the enemy of the whole world.
And Bai Ye had already said first: "Tony!"
"Um?"
Tony looked at Bai Ye.
"Actually, think about it, it doesn't make much sense to play these tricks with these capitalists, wallow in a mud pit, use open guns and covert attacks, and compete with others who are more despicable, shameless, cruel and cold-blooded. And if you close the military industry department of the Stark Group, If you want to do something for the world, it is just a small thing that treats the symptoms but not the root cause. Someone will soon fill the vacancy of the Stark Group. It is of no importance to the world. If you really want to do something for the world ..." Bai Ye's expression showed a special seriousness: "Do you think we brothers should join forces to build a truly equal society for everyone?"
"ah?"
Tony looked at Bai Ye with wide eyes.
"This is what I think. The two of us will build a super giant company, a giant trust that encompasses the entire world." Bai Ye said: "It started with Galaxy Group and Stark Group, and it developed step by step until the two of us The giant company created will become a super giant that transcends the concept of country, and then eliminate the concept of country, unify the entire world, and use strong artificial intelligence Jarvis to rationally allocate the resources of the entire world. By then, there will be no unemployment rate. Everyone has a job that is their own hobby and meets social requirements. It works 8 hours a day. There is no 996, no 007, no exploitation and oppression. As long as everyone works, they can get their own reasonable remuneration. There will be no more House prices are so high that people are desperate. No longer will they be unable to marry the girl they love due to lack of money. There will no longer be families that cannot afford to raise children. The low fertility rate will be reversed in one fell swoop. The human world will be full of hope for prosperity. . Of course, at the same time, there is no concept of capital, and capitalists will no longer have extravagant and lavish enjoyment. After all, capital money comes from the exploitation of ordinary people. We take the exploited part and , returned to ordinary people, and from now on everyone will be truly free, equal and independent people."
Tony was shocked by Bai Ye's idea.
He really didn't expect that Bai Ye, who was doing everything from eating, drinking, whoring, gambling, cheating and stealing, would actually have such a grand plan in mind.
If this thing can really be done successfully, then Bai Ye and Tony will undoubtedly be the greatest men in the world in the future. Even Newton and Einstein, or Confucius and Socrates, are not as great as them, because they Truly liberated mankind.
The scene was silent for a long time.
Tony just spoke in a hoarse voice: "Bai Ye, stop it. How can we complete such a big plan with just the two of us? We are just two people, there is no way we can compete with this world."
To be honest, when Bai Ye told this plan, Tony was excited for a moment. He also wanted to complete this plan and achieve true human liberation. But when Tony thought about it carefully, he realized that this was just a delusion. How could he and Bai Ye be able to reverse the inertia of society? This is too overestimating!
"Of course it will always be impossible if you don't try to do it. Primitive accumulation of capital is always the most difficult!" Bai Ye smiled and said: "In today's world, countries are constantly fighting, resulting in the internal consumption of the earth's internal resources. Loss of the earth's vitality. The earth's resources are limited, and the population is unlimited. One day, the earth's resources will be exhausted, and it is too sad that we are still wasting a lot of earth's resources. If we really can If we unify the world, then we may concentrate our efforts and explore extraterrestrial resources together. For example, the moon and Mars, step by step, we may not have the possibility of leaving the solar system and starting interstellar hegemony..."
Bai Ye said enthusiastically: "If you agree, Tony, I have actually thought about what to do in the initial stage. We can quietly enter the village without using guns, and secretly start from Southeast Asia, North Africa, and Australia to gain power in a region." , and then start to implement our system, use Jarvis to allocate social resources, correct problems when they are found, and spread the good things..."
"Okay, okay, Bai Ye, stop it!"
Tony stretched out his hand to stop Bai Ye from talking, because if Bai Ye continued to talk nonsense, he might really have a heart attack, but Tony felt that it was just him and Bai Ye, two guys with all kinds of evil, to carry out this kind of business... It's better to forget it. Well, don't let this world suffer from their harm again!
The meager strength of an individual cannot compete with this world!
Mudd!
The more Tony thought about it, the more confused he felt. He actually thought about a plan to liberate all mankind thought up by a man who could go to the Sacred Valley to have sex...
"Let's talk about where to hold an IM party in the next two days?"
"What a pity, Tony, that you don't approve of my big plan."
Bai Ye looked regretful, and then joined Tony in a new im party plan with great interest.
Well, after talking freely, Bai Ye quickly forgot about his grand plan. This was just a random thought after he entered the sage time after having an in-depth exchange with Felicia. Really If the capitalists are to be driven out, wouldn't it be possible for Bai Ye to have sex on IM in the future?
How can you embarrass yourself!
Bai Ye didn't enjoy enough of the benefits of being a capitalist!
It is difficult for the evil nature deep within human beings to breed the flowers of White Night's grand plan.
As he was talking, Tony suddenly brought up the topic of "the impermanence of life and death". He said jokingly: "Everyone is going to die. No one knows which day he will be in trouble and die quietly. In the white night, if Oh my God, I accidentally put the Stark Group in the hands of Pepper, can you help me take good care of her?"
"After you die..." Bai Ye thought for a moment, then smiled and patted Tony's shoulder vigorously: "Don't worry, I will help you take good care of Little Pepper in all directions when the time comes!"
Tony: "..."
