The Osborne Group Building, in a test room, the engine roars, and a bald man stands on a floating gliding wing.
Dr. Storm from the middle-aged Mediterranean said excitedly to a man in military uniform beside him: "General Ross, we have solved the problem of its balance and the battery life of the micro-engine."
But General Ross was not impressed by this, and said blankly: "Dr. Storm, I already know about this glider. I didn't come here today to see this."
The middle-aged Dr. Mediterranean moved his lips, and he was speechless. Of course, he knew that General Ross's purpose was to strengthen his physical strength.
but……
"General Ross, Mr. Barkan." The old Green Goblin walked out of the laboratory wearing a white coat, with a smile on his face, and greeted the group of people below enthusiastically:
"It's been a long time since the board of directors was held, and you are very welcome to come."
"Norman, long time no see." A bald middle-aged man in a wheelchair smiled. Although the shape was the same, this guy was not named Charles, nor was he a doctor.
But General Ross on the side didn't have a good face at all, I saw him say lightly:
"Mr. Osborn, I'm here to see how your super soldier program is going. Let's talk about it now, I don't have a lot of time."
"This..." The middle-aged Dr. Mediterranean said hesitantly, "We let the experimental mice inhale the vaporized physical energy enhancer, and its physical energy increased twelvefold..."
"Very good." General Ross praised lightly, but looking at Dr. Storm's hesitant expression, he knew that there must be a problem:
"Tell me, what are the side effects?"
"Uh... violent, very aggressive, and extremely bloodthirsty..." Dr. Storm replied, the rigor of science did not allow him to conceal such serious side effects.
"It was just an accidental experiment." The old Green Goblin walked quickly, stopped between General Ross and Dr. Storm, and smiled:
"In addition to Dr. Storm, more than a dozen doctors in our laboratory, including me, can confirm that the physical strength enhancer has been perfected, and in the next few days, human experiments can be carried out. I believe in our experiments. It will be very successful.”
"Dr. Storm, do you have any suggestions?" General Ross directly ignored the old Green Goblin's words. He could see that Norman Osborn's words were farts.
"The road has gone wrong. We must go back to the formula research stage and start over. We can't make mistakes any longer..."
"Back to the equation!"
Norman's face was ugly in an instant, and he gave Dr. Storm a vicious look. Once the military's investment was gone, Osborn's cash flow would be completely cut off, and he would not be able to pay wages or share dividends.
When the employees leave, the shareholders withdraw their capital, the entire group will be completely closed down!
This is destroying his hard work!
"Dr. Osborn!"
General Ross shouted softly, drawing the old Green Goblin's attention back to himself.
"I'm a soldier, and I won't be as hypocritical as you businessmen." Ross said lightly:
"I don't lie to you, our military has decided to conduct research on the super soldier program by ourselves. I think you have heard of the scientist who presides over this project: Dr. Bruce Banner, a genius scientist."
"He and his team are going to take on that, so we're about to divest and put money into our own super soldier program."
"I'm sorry to inform you that in two weeks, it's time to divest."
Norman's elegant face was sluggish. He never expected that this would be the result.
General Ross patted his shoulder and smiled:
"It has been an honor to work with you in the past, and now, you will have two weeks to deal with changes in cash flow, prepare in advance Norman... Of course, if you can come up with a mature product before that if."
After all, he left with the people around him.
Norman Osborn's face is really ugly, he is really struggling now.
"Norman." A voice interrupted his thoughts. He turned his head and saw that it was Barkan of the board of directors. He manipulated the wheelchair and slowly came to Norman Osborn's side:
"The matter of the Ocean Lab has been completely exposed. The media, animal protection, and even the victims are demanding compensation and apology from us, and our stock has plummeted."
Norman Osborn nodded, of course he knew about it, but due to the disruption of cash flow, they can only do some ineffective public relations now, which can't play a decisive role at all... Besides, no matter what they do , there is always more evidence against them in the media!
Simply put, someone is messing with them.
Norman is not a fool. Faced with this situation, he quickly analyzed the purpose of the person behind it.
The other party is to short them, and looking at the other party's series of methods, not only asking for money, but also thinking about swallowing up the entire Osborn.
Norman knows everything, but in this country, he can't do anything without money, so he desperately urges the super soldier plan. Once this is successful, not only will he get the support of the military, but also the support of the whole country. At that time, all problems will be solved.
but……
Norman's face was gloomy, but with Rose's decision, the death knell of the Osborn Group had sounded, and he had no choice at all.
"In addition to such a serious crisis, the board of directors decided to convene a board of directors a week later to deal with the current predicament." The wheelchair bald head named Barkan said, and he turned around and left.
"Okay, I see..." Norman replied feebly, and sat down on the steps of the company, his mind was chaotic, and his face was full of confusion.
In the building, the number of people coming and going gradually decreased, and in the end, only Norman was left sitting alone on the steps.
"Norman..." Dr. Storm walked over slowly and sat down beside him.
"Ah... Storm, you haven't left yet..."
Norman glanced at him and turned his eyes away again. He didn't blame Storm. The two were partners from Weimo to the present. They could quarrel with red faces, but there was no such thing as settle accounts.
"How am I going to go like this?" Storm said with a wry smile.
"Norman, in fact, if the company is gone, it will be gone. We have already made a lot of money, and it has been enough for us for hundreds of years. There is no need to pursue these."
Norman gave a wry smile. He didn't understand these truths, but Osborn was pulled up by him little by little. How much effort was poured into it, and the loss of his life also lost its direction.
What's more, will the person behind him let him go? After the short-selling is over, he will face endless lawsuits, until he is penniless, destitute, and finally imprisoned and lonely and old.
What is a capitalist? It is to squeeze the last drop of surplus value from everyone, and this is the capitalist.
Also as a capitalist, Norman knew all too well what the man behind it was doing.
Thinking of this, fear appeared in Norman's eyes. Similarly, there was also a desire to survive. He was not willing to fail. Even if he failed, he had to fight in the end.
"Storm, go to the laboratory, we will directly carry out the human experiment of the super soldier program!" Norman's eyes suddenly became firm:
"Take me as an experiment!"
"Norman, no!" Storm flatly refused: "It's too dangerous, you know that little guinea pig..."
But Norman couldn't help but drag him to the lab.
"Norman, listen to me, this is absolutely impossible..." Storm struggled.
jingle bell~
The phone rang suddenly, and Norman picked it up and saw that it was his son. He raised his thumb and was about to hang up.
But after thinking about it, once the experiment fails, he will never see his son again. After thinking for a moment, he pressed the answer button.
"Harry..." Norman barely picked himself up, making his voice sound more normal.
"Dad, we found a treasure." Harry's excited voice came from the phone: "A place the size of a basketball, covered with gold, conservatively estimated... at least 50 billion!"
The old green goblin who almost became a green goblin: "..."
Life is full of ups and downs...it's so exciting!
