The Legendary Life of an American Superhero

To say it's a scandal is not true.

Specifically, among these newspapers and media that were acquired by Tony Stark, some of the original employees, like black sheep, do something detrimental to Stark Industries, relying on the mentality of leaning against a big tree to enjoy the shade. The story of the name.

After Pepper became the executive president of Stark Industries, he has already made arrangements for this matter. When he is not busy, he will discuss with several managements of Stark Industries how to do it. So far, It's already a bit frowning.

at this time.

"what."

Pepper seemed to think of something, and looked directly at Rachel: "Rachel, you can come to this newly established Stark Media."

Rachel was slightly taken aback: "Me?"

Pepper nodded, his expression didn't seem to be joking, and he seemed to say seriously: "Yes, you are from the media, and you are a senior partner of the Washington Sun. If you want, you are fully qualified to serve as this President of Home Media Group."

Rachel didn't recover for a long time.

Pepper looked directly at Lake, who was talking to Tony not far away.

Lake made no expressions or suggestions.

Pepper said to Rachel: "And this time is just right, I originally planned to confirm this matter this week, and they also plan to use this media platform, now there is such a good opportunity, you can borrow Since this time has become famous, I think you can seriously consider it, after all..."

Saying that, Pepper shook his head and smiled: "After Tony bought these newspapers over the years, he took the attitude of no matter what, but all managers with some abilities have moved to other newspapers."

This is also normal.

Tony's acquisition of these newspapers or messy radio stations and even TV stations is not to help them develop or to help them grow, but to shut them up through acquisitions.

SHIELD likes to use tricks to make others socially die, but here, Tony likes to use money to make these media socially die.

As for whether these media are dead or alive after the acquisition, Tony didn't care at all, and he gave the secretary Pepper at the time.

For Tony, it doesn't matter.

But Pepper didn't want these industries to die in her hands, so these years, uh, whenever the media couldn't hold on, the radio station directly connected with Tony Stark, and the TV station directly lost Stark. private interviews and the like, that's it, although he didn't make much money, he was barely able to make a living.

so……

It is true that Pepper intends to combine these industries, and it is also true that he wants to find a management talent.

However, Rachel did not reply to Pepper's invitation immediately.

After leaving Stark Industries.

on the way back.

Rachel asked Lake, who was driving the car, "What do you think?"

"what?"

"What do you think of Pepper's invitation?"

Rachel checked her body and looked at Lake who was driving: "I know that there is a relationship between you and Tony, but if I accept this invitation, it will indeed be a step up for my career, and at the same time, you It's also closer to us, what do you think?"

Lake glanced at Rachel and smiled: "If you want, I support your choice."

Rachel was a little suspicious: "Really?"

Lake laughed: "Do I have any reason to object?"

Wouldn't it be better to be close?

In this way, Lake feels that he can fly one less place every year. He had to fly four places in the previous year. Now that the two women are in the same city, he only needs to go out twice to be OK.

This is a good thing.

Lake thought so.

Rachel's expression became a little familiar: "Lake, I'm serious, I'm really thinking about Pepper's invitation, but I don't like the relationship you use in this, after all, I don't want you The relationship with Tony Stark got weird."

Lake said curiously: "Being weird?"

Rachel nodded: "If I accept the invitation, Tony Stark will become my big boss in a sense, and I know your relationship with Tony Stark is nothing else. Yes, even if I know I can do it myself, other people may not think so."

Lake nodded thoughtfully: "That makes sense."

Rachel looked at Lake who didn't speak after nodding, blinked her eyes, and spread her hands towards Lake: "So what?"

Lake might not think about that.

Rachel thought it was normal.

After all, Lake is a man, but Rachel feels that she can't. She has to think about it comprehensively, at least for Lake. In case, maybe, a certainty, one day in the future, someone relies on this Layer relationship, what should Lake be asked to do? What to do then?

Rachel didn't want this to happen in the future because of herself.

Lake returned to his senses and looked at Rachel: "Just now Pepper seems to have given you the list of media he currently controls. How about the power of disintegration and integration?"

Rachel said: "That must be different, if it is integrated, plus the resources of Stark Industries itself, and after I join, there are resources from your side, not to mention that you can immediately kill the current New York media king. , but, a tie is fine."

"Then do it."

"what?"

Lake smiled at Rachel, grabbed the phone directly, and called Pepper: "Pepper, how much do you estimate the market value of the integrated media group."

Pepper was stunned for a moment, then covered the microphone and repeated Lake's words to Tony, who was about to start welding again.

Tony nodded directly.

Pepper said into the microphone: "2.1 billion!"

Of course, Tony has not made so much money in the media that he has successively acquired over the years, but he can't stand inflation, so from a certain point of view, he still makes a profit.

However, this is only the market value, and there is still an overflow of the Stark Industries brand.

after awhile.

Pepper just hung up the phone.

Tony, who was rearming his Iron Man suit over there, said, "What did he say."

Pepper put down the phone: "Lake said he offered 500 million for a 50% stake in this newly established group, and I agreed."

Tony smiled: "My total value is 2.1 billion, and he wants half of me for 500 million?"

This means that it is Lake who is talking, and if it is someone else, Tony probably has called Happy and told him to sweep people out of the house.

Tony moved his neck a bit, then smiled: "But forget it, I didn't plan to buy it back for anything."

For others, this is a lot of money, but for Tony, it's a matter of sprinkling water.

but……

Pepper said again: "Lake said, he will give you the rest of the money in another form."

Tony laughed: "What?"

Pepper said with a strange expression: "He said, if you have the opportunity to awaken the little universe in the future, he will give you a set of holy clothes that is the same as the one on Saga's body, and also said, the zodiac sign, for you Take a place."

Tony stopped.

There were only a few images of Saga wearing holy clothes in my mind.

Not to mention the shape of the Gemini Saint Cloth, just the imposing manner of the Saint Cloth, I have to say, it really shocked Tony, if Tony didn't think he was not familiar with Saga, and Saga often saw the beginning and the end of the dragon. Yes, Tony wants to ask Saga to borrow his holy clothes to improve his battle clothes.

Tony returned to his senses, nodded, and said "OK" in a mild manner, then took off and continued his welding work.

Star Building parking lot.

Lake hung up the phone with Pepper, looked at Rachel, who was sitting in the co-pilot with a big mouth, and smiled: "It's done, so you don't have to worry about making the relationship between me and Tony weird. ."

This time it was the guy's turn to owe me.

A set of sacred clothes of the zodiac is worth a lot, and Lake does not need to say it.

and……

He also promised a zodiac sign.

To say that it is the position of a palace lord, it is better to say that this is a promise made in advance by Lake as the future king of the gods.

Didn't you see that since he started to evolve, even the lottery system has been closed and upgraded, and the US knife has been cancelled as the lottery currency.

obviously.

Even a plug-in knows that cash, for Lake, is already cheaper than paper.

but……

Say so.

In fact, in the past few years, I have saved 500 million one after another. Lake originally planned to save this money, and it was put there. In case of any trouble in the future, I need to summon more avatars. back-up funds.

Of course.

Lake can ask Emilia for money, and it is still very easy for the Immortal Consortium to come out with 1.2 billion.

But Lake didn't want to.

After all, this is equivalent to telling Emilia that her own woman, Emilia, should pay to help another woman of hers with her career. If the news is about to come out, what happened to Lake?

Even if Lake doesn't mind, it is estimated that Emilia or Rachel will know about it in the future, and it is estimated that there will be some ideas in their hearts.

so.

Lake thought about using this combination to pay. Frankly speaking, Lake actually planned not to give a dime. After all, a promise was not measured by 10 billion.

But at the moment, using this promise is equivalent to empty gloves. Lake knows that he can pay, and Tony may know it, but Pepper doesn't think so. After all, the friendship between men is very direct. If women are involved, it will change directly. It gets complicated, so for now this method is fine.

The big deal is to let Tony pay it back.

how?

Tony and Pepper's daughters seem to be full of cuteness, and Lake can accept the father's debt to the daughter.

Of course.

The kind of daughter-in-law.

Lake is not so evil.
