Chapter 66: Promotional Ad
Regardless of the era, animation is an expensive industry. This holds especially true for Walt Disney Studio during the Great Depression. Animation technology was not yet perfected, and creating an animated movie often required a substantial amount of funding and time.
Therefore, maintaining a solid financial foundation had always been a top concern for Walt Disney Studio.
"I believe this is an opportunity, a chance to help Mickey overcome his slump."
Compared to his brother, Walt Disney, Roy Disney didn't have exceptional talent in animation production. Instead, he focused more on the overall operation of Disney Studio.
Unfortunately, the three-color printing technology invented by the Cinecolor Corporation didn't work as well as they had hoped. To realize their plan of making color animation with this technology, Walt would need to invest more funds. He had previously revealed the studio's plan to produce color animations in interviews and couldn't afford any failures.
"In fact, I've already booked a train ticket to New York and plan to personally discuss with the boss of 'The Messenger Post'..."
...
"...with cutting-edge biotechnological capabilities... We guarantee your health and safety, HYDRA BioTech, always by your side, solving all your troubles, Hail Hydra, the perfect protector..."
Inside the HYDRA building in an alternate world.
Natasha's gaze swept over the HYDRA advertisements on the screen, then she turned her attention to the interior of the building.
"Good morning, Dr. Hank Pym."
"Natasha."
Hearing the voice from behind, Hank turned to look at the member of the Thunderbolts, his tone somewhat indifferent.
"It seems you're here for HYDRA too."
"Not entirely."
Hearing Hank Pym's words, Natasha looked towards Helmut Zemo not far away and whispered softly.
"Welcome, Natasha."
Standing amidst the crowd, Helmut noticed Natasha standing next to Hank and stopped his conversation with the person in front of him. He then smiled and walked over.
Seeing Helmut approaching, Hank furrowed his brows and left directly.
"It seems your relationship isn't harmonious."
Returning his gaze from Hank Pym, Natasha spoke.
"It's just a difference of opinions. It doesn't affect Hank Pym's achievements in his work. For HYDRA, Hank Pym is a valuable asset."
Without answering Natasha's question, Helmut smiled and explained.
Without delving too much into the topic of Hank Pym, Helmut turned to the nearby secretary and gestured.
Following his reminder, the people in the lab stopped their conversation.
In their gazes, Helmut started, "I think most of you are aware of the news, so now is the time to witness this great technology."
As Helmut's words fell, he stepped into the nearby lab.
Following his footsteps, everyone in the room entered the lab.
"For a long time, HYDRA has been committed to biotechnological research. This world is not safe. In New York City alone, there are more than ten crime incidents related to superpowers every day. Here, I want to thank Ms. Natasha and the members of the Thunderbolts behind her. It is because of their existence that we can continue to work and live safely..."
Following Helmut's gesture, the people in the lab turned their gazes to Natasha.
For a moment, she was under so many eyes.
Natasha's expression remained calm, accepting Helmut's gratitude calmly.
"But, as we all know."
After saying these, Helmut redirected the topic back to the purpose of today. "The Thunderbolts cannot provide us with protection twenty-four hours a day."
As he said this, Helmut walked to the center of the lab. "But HYDRA can."
"Now, let me introduce to you, the latest creation of HYDRA developed by Dr. Hank Pym, the terminator of crime—Ultron."
As Helmut introduced, a robot with a silvery-white body emitting a metallic and technological light appeared in front of everyone.
Looking at Ultron, Natasha unconsciously glanced at Hank Pym next to her.
Hank Pym stood there with an expressionless face, silently watching everything.
"Ultron is a cutting-edge intelligent robot developed by HYDRA, capable of working and fighting in various extreme environments, providing comprehensive and perfect security for you..."
As Helmut introduced, everyone in the lab moved closer to Ultron.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Helmut began to extensively explain the robot's functions.
Waving his hand to signal the nearby secretary, the lab's screen began playing a promotional video for Ultron.
"In this era, danger is everywhere, and you never know what kind of danger you'll encounter the next second. Ultron can provide you with 24-hour personal protection. Its powerful artificial intelligence can reasonably judge the dangers around you and provide timely warnings..."
Accompanied by the ad, the screen displayed Ultron sounding an alarm and protecting the target from harm.
"Moreover, Ultron's presence eliminates the risks in various dangerous jobs. At a fire scene, Ultron can perform more precise rescue operations than firefighters..."
As the lines in the video changed, Ultron's tasks shifted from protection to performing various dangerous jobs.
"In the not-too-distant future, Ultron will replace all dangerous tasks and create a safe and sustainable environment for the world."
"But what if our enemies gain control of Ultron?"
Inside the lab, after watching the promotional video, someone raised their question.
"On this point, HYDRA is well-prepared. In fact, each Ultron's AI system has self-distinguishing capability and can make judgments and analyses based on the situation. Currently, the Ultron produced by HYDRA is equipped only with the most basic counterattack function. Its main purpose is still for protection and exploring various dangerous locations."
The Ultron publicly revealed by HYDRA was only a simplified version of the current Ultron Type I. It couldn't carry too many weapons, and even the AI system in the robot was a replacement version designed by Zola, far less advanced than the brainwave mode developed by Hank Pym.
