章節 127: C119(2)
The staff of Daily Bugle were snapping photos frantically.
Next to Eddie, his expression was calm, though he had a clearer understanding of Obadiah's shamelessness.
This guy could tell lies with a straight face, and his sincerity made it seem as though he actually believed his own words...What a talent!
DC Company, in the office:
Anton sighed.
Obadiah's shamelessness, and his old-fashioned responses, made him feel slightly better than Tony currently.
Although this old bald head might be considered the weakest villain in the Iron Man series—or even the entire Marvel movie universe—his presence could not be ignored.
Obadiah's sense of existence was stronger than 80% of other villains.
Because it was Obadiah's calculations that created an era in the Marvel world.
Frankly speaking, if Obadiah had truly been like Tony's father, Howard Stark, who loved Tony, Tony would have inevitably lived an extremely beautiful life—one that might even have been a little too perfect and boring.
In such a life, Tony might never have heard the phrase "I love you 3000" until he was old.
"The artificial sun experiment failed, and Obadiah has nowhere to go!"
Watching the live broadcast, Anton thought to himself that the moment Tony would announce "I am Iron Man" to the camera was not far off.
Coincidentally, at the press conference, Obadiah was speaking passionately.
"Currently, Stark Industries is developing a special weapon that could replace the current model and become an indispensable high-end weapon for future wars."
Obadiah spoke confidently, declaring, "Please wait and see. Stark Industries will not disappoint you."
"Can you elaborate on that?" A reporter asked.
"Sorry, we'll announce the detailed information about this weapon at a later date after it's fully sorted out."
Obadiah said, "However, everyone can rest assured that this is by no means a lie!"
"Once our brand-new weapons are ready, every country in the world will place orders with Stark Industries."
His confident demeanor had a contagious effect on many people.
The strength of Stark Industries was still widely believed in, but the recent bad news had made some wonder whether there were serious issues within the company.
It was reminiscent of Osborne, which had only just finished its internal conflict a few days ago.
However, with Tony Stark's recent appearances, people understood that the situation within Stark Industries was very different from Osborne.
Obadiah's explanation had reassured many and helped restore confidence in Stark Industries.
Of course, due to the downturn during this period, Stark Industries would not regain its previous market value in a short time.
But Obadiah's speech served as a boost, at least for those who were optimistic about the company.
"Anton, you seem to have confidence in the weapons Obadiah mentioned?"
Betty knocked on the door and entered.
After Natasha left the previous night, Betty had returned to her assistant position.
Seeing Anton watching the news, she expressed surprise: "We've become minority shareholders in Stark Industries. If you're really optimistic about them, this could be our opportunity."
"Do what you want."
Anton said firmly. "In a little while, you'll see a different Stark Industries."
"Okay."
Betty nodded, then reported: "The global box office for Cyborg has reached 800 million dollars. After yesterday's news, there's been a substantial rebound in box office numbers across various locations. Anton, your second movie has once again reached an unmatched height."
The appearance of Cyborg yesterday had, of course, affected Cyborg itself.
It took 20 million fan value to redeem Cyborg, and the character was active for an hour. The total amount was 20.2 million, almost depleting the original fan value balance.
However, with the news spreading, the fan value balance for Cyborg quickly surpassed 3 million in just one night.
This was enough to keep him moving outside for several hours.
Not to mention Arrow.
This product was already more affordable. Given the current fan value of Arrow, even if it was outside for a day or two, the fan value would be more than enough.
"How are the progress reports for Superman and The Dark Knight?"
Anton, after hearing Betty's update on Cyborg, suddenly thought of the other two movies that were being developed simultaneously.
"Superman is still in the filming stage, but it's nearing completion. As for The Dark Knight, it's in post-production... Quentin and Jim have high expectations for this film. They're pursuing excellence and must not let any mistakes slip by." Betty replied.
"Good." Anton nodded.
His career was on the right track, and he didn't need to constantly focus on company details.
The main priority now was the emergence of the Justice League and its future development.
Given the nature of the Fury, this person would definitely not give up on preparing for the Avengers.
As everyone knows, Fury is a person who is extremely insecure. This is probably related to his past life experiences.
When he was young, when he felt most secure, he encountered Carol, who had returned to Earth and participated in the Kree invasion. As a major character, he was forced to get acquainted with her.
A large number of aliens completely subverted his worldview, making him suddenly question the world he lived in.
After years and months, his mistrust deepened.
Never trust outsiders!
Even with his own people, he kept reservations.
Not to mention, in his view, the Justice League possessed extraordinary powers and even alien technology!
Batman, the leader of the Justice League, had been fighting crime since his debut, but who could guarantee that Batman wouldn't suddenly turn evil and try to conquer the Earth and become a king?
As soon as Batman raised his arms, how many people in the Justice League would respond? Fury dared not think about it.
Therefore, he only gave a little bit of trust to the superhero team he had formed.
Even the back-up to Fury's plans had never been the Avengers.
It was Captain Marvel, Carol Danvers, the cosmic superhero fighting crime across the universe.
So when it came to the New York War, he wasn't too concerned about it.
This was just a test for him to train his troops.
Otherwise, Fury would have already activated the phone that could contact Carol.
At the same time, in Los Angeles,
Tony, who had returned to the mansion by the sea, watched Obadiah's decent answer in the live broadcast. He showed a slight interest in the weapon Obadiah had mentioned.
As the chairman of Stark Industries, although all work had been suspended internally, his authority had not been canceled, and he was still eligible to view all ongoing projects within Stark Industries.
"Jarvis, check out the most recent key projects within Stark Industries that have the highest level of confidentiality." He ordered his smart housekeeper.
Quickly, Only a few seconds passed.
"Sir, all of the relevant information is displayed for you." Jarvis replied.
There were many key projects, but only one or two with the highest level of confidentiality.
Tony did not find anything that met his criteria. His face darkened slightly.
He stared thoughtfully at the press conference, which had come to an end. His gaze was fixed on Obadiah at the front of the stage, and he took a deep breath.
"I hope this is just my imagination... Obadiah!"
