Chapter 12: Next, I’m going to save the world

When Tony and the others arrived at the venue of the press conference, the reporters who had been waiting for more than half an hour aimed their cameras at them, and then pressed the shutters.

These reporters also knew the rules, so until Tony didn’t step on the stage, they didn’t dare to speak casually.

Soon, Tony brought Little Pepper to the stage.

“Mr. Tony, it is said that this morning Mr. Obadiah Stane fell from the building. I want to ask if it was a suicide or a homicide?”

“Mr. Tony, it’s said that the Jericho missile has been finalized today. May I ask if its combat power is satisfactory?”

“Mr. Tony, may I ask what kind of weapons Stark Industries wants to launch next after the Jericho missile?”

……………………

The moment Tony stepped onto the stage, the reporters who could not wait any longer asked the questions they wanted to ask.

Tony looked down at the mess of reporters and opened his hands.

“Everyone be quiet. I’m holding a press conference this time because I have an important thing to announce.”

The moment Tony’s words fell, everyone quieted down.

Since Tony said that he was going to announce something important, it was definitely going to be a very important thing.

Many things had happened in the Stark Group of Industries today.

First, Obadiah Stane, vice president and co-founder of Stark Industries, fell from dozens of stories high to the ground.

According to the military and police, Obadiah Stane was pushed down by a secretary during a dispute over the funds he had contracted.

As for the secretary who pushed Obadiah Stane down, she knew that she couldn’t live anymore, so she killed herself in the end.

Besides this, there was another important thing that happened in Stark Industries. The Jericho missile that they had been developing for a long time was finalized today.

According to the concept drawings released by Stark Industries a while ago, the lethality of the Jericho missile was absolutely terrifying.

And today Tony Stark was going to hold a press conference as well.

Although these reporters had waited here for nearly an hour, no one had any complaints because this might really be Earth-shattering news.

That’s why all the reporters shut their mouths now. It could be said that the entire venue was so quiet even the sound of a needle falling to the ground could be heard.

“Cough, cough, cough…!” Sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ Nʘvᴇl(F)ire.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of nøvels early and in the highest quality.

After clearing his throat, Tony picked up the microphone in front of him and said, “The main reason I gathered you guys here today is that I have a very important matter to announce.

Starting today, I will step down as CEO of Stark Industries.

And the new CEO of Stark Industries will be Miss Pepper Potts. Congratulations, Miss Pepper Potts.”

After Tony pulled Little Pepper out, no applause came from the venue.

The reporters below had yet to react to this news, because this news was too shocking for them.

After the reporters heard the applause, they finally realized that it was time to clap.

For a short time, the venue was filled with the sound of applause and the shutter.

As those voices fell, the reporters were not so much concerned about Little Pepper becoming the new CEO of Stark Industries. Instead, they were concerned about why Tony stepped down from the position of the CEO of Stark Industries, and what he would do next.

The journalists had now linked this news to some of the gossips they received.

“Mr. Tony, do you have any plans after you step down as president of Stark Industries?”

“Mr. Tony, according to the information we’ve received, some people said that Mr. Obadiah Stane was killed by you. Are you going to jail because of this?”

As soon as this reporter asked this question, all the reporters in the venue shut their mouths. This news could really be considered a very important piece of news.

Tony looked down at the reporters waiting for his answer. He knew that it was time to reveal his identity. After all, his identity as Iron Man could not be kept a secret, so it was better for him to be honest.

“Everyone, regarding your questions just now, I will only answer your one question. You asked me what I am going to do next. Next, I am going to save the world. I am going to maintain world peace.”

The moment Tony finished his sentence, blood-red armor appeared and covered his body in an instant. Then Iron Man appeared in front of these reporters for the first time.
