Chapter 1398 Family Favor

Alvin and Norman Osborn discussed matters regarding the "Dark Star"...

The cyborg production lines on the "Dark Star" and those disgusting-looking culture fluids need someone to take over.

The Osborne Group is the perfect choice...

Creating a life close to himself is unacceptable in Alvin's concept.

But if Osborne could use those things to create the ecosystem, that would be another matter...

The two of them chatted until nearly 10 o'clock in the evening...

When Alvin finally left, he still hesitated and asked Norman Osborne, "Do you think Dr. Otto is really a suitable candidate?

I'm a little worried about his state. He definitely wants to do good things, but sometimes in extreme circumstances, it's easy to turn good things into bad things..."

Osborne smiled confidently after hearing this and said, "Then you should accept him to work at the Dark Star, where he will have no conflict with anyone.

His ideas about environmental protection are very practical...

He had a brilliant mind and it would be the world's loss to waste it.

Sometimes it doesn't matter what a person thinks...

What matters is how he does it...

And our role is to get them to act on our ideas.

Alvin, you can't always be so passive, otherwise you will find that you miss a lot of useful people.

Because your heart is unwilling to accept them...

Just like that kid named Danny Rand, the Rand Group recently cooperated with Reed Richards. They took over several confidential military projects...

Reed Richards came to me and I turned him down...

Just yesterday, Danny Rand also contacted me once, and he wanted to seek cooperation. "

Alvin looked at Norman Osborne strangely after hearing this, and said with a smile: "What's wrong with you?

Did you reject them because of me?

This is not your style..."

Norman Osborne pressed the elevator for Alvin, and then said with a smile: "I occasionally feel that I should stand on the side of my friend, even though that friend is sometimes troublesome...

And that guy Reed is trouble...

The most important thing is that I don’t trust scientists who treat scientific research as a business...

Looking through Reed's resume, his investors are simply speechless in the end! "

After hearing this, Alvin laughed and hugged Norman Osborne, and said: "I don't like that guy Reed, because his girlfriend is too beautiful...

But don’t let me influence your decision. You said, business is business..."

Norman Osborne smiled and shook his head after hearing this, and said: "I am telling you this to persuade you. Sometimes you should try to accept some people or things you don't like...

If they are helpful to your cause, you can try to get them to act on your ideas!

Has anyone ever told you that sometimes you are generous, but sometimes you are also mean? "

After hearing this, Alvin waved his hands indifferently and said: "Brother, I feel very strange when these words come out of your mouth...

Who can please everyone?

Those things you mentioned are not things I like to do!

Sitting in an office and having everyone do what I want makes me feel like I'm sitting in an electric chair that's going to come on at any moment.

It has nothing to do with me what the RAND Corporation or Reed Richards wants to do..."

Norman Osborne said with a smile on his face: "I knew you would say that...

So in line with the idea of ​​always standing on the side of my own people, I refuse those cooperations!

We are busy enough after all...

But Dr. Otto is a little different. We have the ability to control risks, so why not let him try? "

Alvin nodded and said: "As for Dr. Otto's question, you have the final say...

In fact, the so-called 'control' is exactly what I am worried about...

From my experience, the more stringent the ‘control’, the more serious the backlash will be.

I can feel that what Dr. Otto just said comes from the bottom of his heart, so let him try it on the Dark Star...

Maybe he can slowly find the appropriate 'boundaries' on the road to realizing his ideals...

Let us wait and see! "

Norman Osborn shook his head slightly amusedly, Alvin will always be the same Alvin...

He never forces others to accept his ideas. He always expresses his opinions clearly and then stands aside and "wait and see"!

Sometimes things would turn out to prove him wrong, and he would laugh and say, 'Sorry,' but Alvin was still Alvin.

His "stubbornness" has attracted many people of all kinds to gather around him. As long as his personality is not so awkward, no one will feel pressure to get along with him.

A utilitarian like Norman Osborne also felt that he was slowly being changed by Alvin.

At least in the past, he rarely refused certain cooperations that were sure to yield huge benefits for reasons other than profit.

Looking at the elevator opening the door, Norman Osborne smiled, stretched out his hand to Alvin, and said: "You'd better leave some things to the right person...

After being with you for a long time, I feel that I am not that qualified a businessman anymore!

That Danny Rand told me before he left that several of his senior brothers came to New York. I guess their target should be those dragon bones in your hand.

He wanted to use me to save the country, but I rejected him...

I guess he will still look for you! "

As he spoke, Norman Osborne pressed the elevator button, hesitated and said, "Actually, according to your standards, the Rand Group's performance is actually very good.

The juvenile delinquent rehabilitation project they funded has achieved outstanding results, and George admires him very much.

But because of you, they are now being excluded from mainstream groups in New York...

Sometimes you really can't underestimate your own influence.

I know you don't care about Danny Rand, and it's stupid to ask you to justify something you never did...

But if Danny Rand comes to your restaurant for a drink one day, you might want to say hello to him. "

Alvin never thought that the Rand Group would be isolated by these high-level officials in New York for its own reasons...

He has told himself many times to be careful when speaking, but he still never thought that just because he didn't like someone, he could make him miserable...

Looking at Norman Osborne's serious old face, Alvin said helplessly: "Okay, I listened to what you said...

But you have to tell me, why are you speaking for Danny Rand?

This is not your style. Our identities seem to be reversed...

You make me look like a villain! "

Norman Osborne laughed and said: "Old Rand, Danny Rand's father, was once a good friend of my father, and Osborne owed his family a favor.

You may not know that part of the reason for the Himalayan adventure that cost Old Rand his life was because he wanted to help my father collect some medicinal materials...

I've actually been very lucky that you didn't make it too difficult for me!

You might not have known that if you hadn't agreed to Matt Murdock's request to hand the keel over to Danny.

I might take part of the dragon bone from my hand and treat his wound. "

Alvin nodded suddenly. New York is not a big city, and there are always some inextricable connections between these big shots.

Looking at the expression on Norman Osborne's face, Alvin smiled and said: "These are really not big things, and you don't have to say hello to me specifically for this Danny Rand.

I never thought of embarrassing him. If you still care about cooperating with him, you should behave professionally.

As for the keel thing...

Let's see, at least I have to know what he wants the dragon bone for? "

As Alvin walked into the elevator and was about to press the elevator button, the lights in the elevator suddenly flashed...

Immediately afterwards, fierce alarm sounds began to sound inside the Osborne Building...

Osborne was extremely calm. He stepped into the elevator, and while pressing the button in the basement for Alvin, he connected to the communication and connected to the security department of the Osborne Group...

"what's going on?"

As soon as Norman Osborne finished speaking, an anxious voice came over, "Sir, someone burglarized our laboratory on the 15th floor...

Now our people have sealed off the building and will be able to find the other party soon. "

Norman Osborne frowned after hearing this, and said in a deep voice: "Have someone confirm the damage to the laboratory, and call the police to notify them and ask them to block nearby streets."

Seeing Norman Osborn turn off the communicator with an ugly expression, Alvin said with a smile: "What's wrong with this world? There are still people who dare to come to Osborne Building to steal things?"

Norman Osborne shook his head indifferently and said: "This is too normal, there are always people who want to get something for nothing...

It’s not just me, every big company has the same trouble.

Commercial espionage, theft of scientific research results, theft of experimental prototypes...

It’s not surprising, some thefts even have government backgrounds…

Virus information in Harlem was stolen last week, and one of our internal researchers took the information into the U.S. Department of Security's laboratory. "

Alvin looked at Norman Osborne in surprise and said, "You just let them steal your achievements?"

Norman Osborne looked at the elevator numbers in front of him and said: "There are some things that are meaningless to pursue. The plague in Harlem is not replicable, which means there is no subsequent research value.

I destroyed all the original viruses. The information they took away only has theoretical value...

Now the US Department of Security owes me an explanation. I can go to them and ask for an 'explanation' when needed. It's a great deal! "

When Norman Osborne was talking to Alvin about how to handle the theft, a communication came in...

"Sir, all the keels stored in the laboratory on the 15th floor have disappeared..."

Alvin whistled a little with gloating...

Norman Osborn rarely tried to be a good guy, but was immediately slapped in the face, making the atmosphere in the elevator a bit funny.

Alvin looked at Norman Osborne's slightly blue face and said with a smile: "Are you sure that Danny Rand wants to talk to me about the keel?"

Norman Osborne straightened his body, stretched the corners of his mouth, and said, "Do you think Danny did it?"

Alvin shook his head and said with a smile: "I feel more like I want to frame Danny Rand...

That kid is very impulsive, but certainly not stupid!

What are you going to do if those people run away? "

Norman Osborne tidied up his decent suit and looked at the elevator door. He said with a serious expression: "I will call the police...

When did the security in New York get so bad?

You should come with me to the media and put some pressure on George!

We have given the New York police a lot of help, and it’s time for him to give back..."

Alvin stared at Norman Osborn, who looked like a rich bastard, and said funnyly: "I can now understand why Director George always wanted to resign!

If my jurisdiction were full of bad guys like you, I wouldn't be able to do it! "

Norman Osborne nodded with a smile and said: "It is the duty of the police to investigate the case. I can't wait for the thief to come to my door by himself!"

Alvin looked at the door of the Osborne Building dozens of meters away. Onlookers and media reporters had begun to gather...

After a little hesitation, Alvin smiled and walked out with Norman Osborne.

No matter what the purpose of this theft was, it was obvious that someone was trying to trick Danny Rand...

Norman Osborne wanted to give him a hand.

Giving the job to the police makes things easier...

As long as Alvin is willing to come forward, he can send a signal to Danny Rand, telling him that someone is cheating him...

Otherwise, based on Alvin and the others’ understanding of Keel, there would be no nonsense at all, and the Rand Group would be the number one suspect!
