Chapter 96 Change
this afternoon.
New York newspapers, economic pages of all media outlets were struck by Tony's astonishing remarks at the press conference.
The stock price of Stark Industries plummeted by more than 10-12 percentage points immediately, and it is estimated that hundreds of millions of dollars in market value will be evaporated on the same day, and some stock market commentators have assessed and judged that such a scenario will not stop in the next few days.
"So, Nester, what do you want to say about what Tony Stark said at the press conference?"
NBC immediately convened an instant news section to discuss what Tony Stark was doing at the reception.
"I think he's crazy, maybe this time in Afghanistan has hurt his brain, how else could he have made such a ridiculous decision, the board of Stark Industries should make a decision right now, let Tony Stark withdraws from the decision-making level of the company, or Stark Industries will be dragged down sooner or later..."
"I don't agree with Mr Nest's remarks, on the contrary I think Mr Tony Stark's actions are quite correct."
"Oh, why did Ms. Shirley say that?"
"Stark Industries has been committed to providing the U.S. military with the development of weapons of mass destruction in recent years. According to the survey, more than one-fifth of the weapons have appeared in the international market through various channels, falling into some In the hands of terrorist groups, there are already a large number of innocent civilians in the Middle East who have been harmed by weapons manufactured by Stark Industries."
"Ms. Xue Li's comments are mixed with too many personal emotional factors. Stark Industries, as a part of the American military-industrial system, cannot be stopped by someone with a simple sentence. I still insist on my previous remarks, the board of directors It should be discussed again, and Tony Stark should just rest."
"Nest, you are too cold-blooded!"
"I'm just being realistic."
...
In Li Ran's view, the disturbance from the outside world is not important.
Because it won't take long for this discussion to become meaningless.
In Li Ran's view, Tony Stark's closure of Stark's industrial weapons development department is both a crisis and a turning point, representing that the future Iron Man has officially embarked on his right track.
Of course, it's still some time before Tony takes to the skies as Iron Man.
Chinatown, inside the martial arts hall.
The development of a certain event is somewhat beyond his expectations.
"Don't practice martial arts?"
Ye Wen frowned and looked at Mike in front of him, or should be said to be the agent of S.H.I.E.L.D.
Are even S.H.I.E.L.D. agents doing their missions so casually these days?
Obviously, I have already left such a foreshadowing, why are you leaving suddenly, you don't play cards according to the routine.
Although there are 10,000 doubts in my heart that I can't solve, the avatar is still loyal to his role, but he just makes a slightly puzzled look: "Well, why did you suddenly stop practicing?"
No way, everything is the command above.
In this regard, the agent of S.H.I.E.L.D. also felt helpless in his heart, but based on the agent's professional awareness, he still made a regretful expression and said: "Although I also really want to continue learning kung fu with you, master, However, it was revealed that I was cheated of a lot of money by the guy surnamed Jin, so my family and girlfriend put forward restrictions on me. If I continued to practice martial arts, they would cut off my parents and my relationship with my couple, so... …”
The reason given by Mike is simple and rude, especially on the premise that Li Ran knows the identity of the agent of the other party's S.H.I.E.L.D., he can conclude that it is 100% an excuse to shirk without thinking.
However, since the other party has said so, Ye Wen in the martial arts hall can't force him to keep the other party, so he can only sigh silently,
He replied: "Well, in this case, family is more important. You have been in the martial arts hall for a short time, and I didn't teach you much. I only hope that you will be able to practice horse steps in the future, although it will not enhance your fighting ability. , but at least get fit."
"I see, Master." Nodding, Mike deliberately made a reluctant and guilty expression: "I'm sorry, Master, I let you down."
"It's not your fault." Shaking his head lightly, Ye Wen still looked elegant: "It just means that our master-disciple relationship is not deep."
In Chinatown, inside the martial arts hall, Ye Wen watched Mike leave.
In the antique store, Li Ran couldn't help touching his chin. He always felt that things were not so simple.
Especially, as an intelligence espionage organization, how could SHIELD give up so easily in the face of Ye Wen's obviously suspicious existence.
Thinking of this, Li Ran couldn't help but keep an eye on it.
...
"A golden ratio siumai."
After the unfriendly discussion with Obadiah and the shareholders meeting, Tony came to the food truck. He needed a little food to soothe his bad mood.
"By the way, do you still have the ordinary steamed buns from before?" Looking at the [Xie Lu] in the fast food truck who was concentrating on cooking, Tony seemed to suddenly think of something and asked.
"You mean the golden smile." He raised his head, glanced at Tony, and [Xie Lu] said immediately.
"That's right, that's the one." Tony raised his eyebrows and nodded.
"Didn't you say you didn't want it before?" [Xie Lu] said unceremoniously.
"Okay, I admit, I didn't really care about that dish at the time." With a wave of his hand, Tony excused, "I tasted it later, and it really tasted okay."
[Jie Lu]: "..."
Tony: "..."
"Okay, it tastes delicious," Tony had to admit under the pressure of [Xie Lu]'s eyes.
"That's just an occasional dish, and I don't have any suitable materials at hand right now." Silently retracting his gaze, [Xie Lu] continued to reply.
"All right."
Although it's a pity, but from the past experience, Tony is very aware of the character of the owner of the fast food truck in front of him, so he didn't force it too much. He picked up the shumai in front of him and took a sip.
"Boss, if you do something that everyone thinks is wrong and only you think it's right, how does it feel?" Tony suddenly spoke to [Xie Lu] in the food truck while eating siu mai.
"You shouldn't ask me about this kind of thing, I'm just a cook."
The expected solution did not appear, [Jie Lu] rudely poured a basin of cold water on Tony.
Pulling the corners of his mouth in embarrassment, Tony explained to himself, "Okay, maybe I've been thinking too much recently."
"In fact, you don't need anyone's answer, you should already have your own answer in your heart."
Raising his eyebrows, Tony looked at [Xie Lu] in front of him, and shoved the last Shaomai into his mouth: "Does your food truck have takeaway service?"
"No."
"That's possible. Next, I won't be able to eat your cooking for a while."
