Chapter 115 You Shouldn't Offend Him. He Is Now in Charge of the Company.
Chapter 115 You shouldn't offend him, he is now in charge of the public relations department
"The yellow-skinned monkey is quite temperamental."
Seeing Xia Shang turn around and leave, Storm said disdainfully.
"You shouldn't offend him, he is now in charge of the public relations department." Edgar's face was gloomy. He had long known that Storm had serious racial discrimination, but he didn't expect Storm to mock Xia Shang regardless of the occasion. "You should know how to restrain yourself. He is the vice president of Water and also my assistant."
"Okay, it's my fault, but I still find it hard to imagine that you would put an uncivilized monkey into Water Company."
As an Aryan, Storm was deeply influenced by the second station demon king, so as long as they were not Aryans, she would discriminate against them.
"Don't forget, you are now a superhero under Water. I can let you in, and I can also let you get out of Water at any time." Edgar didn't even tolerate his countrymen, let alone Storm.
"Really? It's a pity that Water needs me now." Storm smiled disapprovingly.
…………
On the other side, Xia Shang returned to his office with a cold face. He was not really angry, but more of a disguise.
In his opinion, letting Storm join the Super Seven was definitely the result of Edgar's careful consideration. Due to Madeline's sudden death, Homelander will become difficult to control. In addition, Homelander strongly recommended Ashley to return to Vought, and it was obvious that he wanted to have more power.
Even Xia Shang could see Homelander's intentions, not to mention Edgar, the president of Vought.
Therefore, the role of Storm is to check and balance Homelander.
In addition, Edgar should have a deeper calculation. Due to the emergence of those super criminals, the masses are extremely eager for national security. At this time, the only thing they can rely on is the superheroes under Vought.
If Xia Shang guessed correctly, Vought's next development policy is to continuously strengthen fans' dependence on superheroes.
Thereby binding Vought and the United States together to form a whole community of interests.
"So how can we deepen the public's dependence on Walter..." Xia Shang's mouth corners slowly rose. He turned on the computer and looked at the huge anti-swastika on the screen. "Of course it's brainwashing. I'm afraid that simple fans are not enough to satisfy Edgar. What he wants should be solid believers."
Bang bang bang... There was a slight knock on the door outside.
"Come in." Xia Shang said after closing the webpage.
"Mr. Jervis, I'm here to visit you. I'm very happy to be your assistant." Ashley, who hadn't seen her for a long time, was still the same as before, and liked to hold the folder in front of her chest.
Seeing that her former subordinate had become her current boss, she was still a little embarrassed.
Xia Shang stood up and shook hands with her naturally, "I am also very happy to see you back in the company. How is your work now? Are you still adapting? If you have any difficulties, just tell me."
"Thank you Mr. Jervis for your concern. I feel everything is fine. After this trip, I found that Walter is more suitable for me." Ashley's attitude was obviously much more respectful. There was no way. People had to bow their heads under the eaves. After all, Xia Shang was her direct leader. If she didn't know how to behave, it would only make her life more and more difficult.
This kind of obvious truth, Ashley, as a veteran in the workplace, would not fail to understand.
"Do you have something to do with me this time?" Xia Shang asked.
After hearing this, Ashley hurriedly handed the document in her hand to Xia Shang: "I heard that Walter is preparing to select a new superhero. I happen to have a hero who is very suitable. He should be the perfect candidate to replace the invisible man."
"Blind spot, proficient in physical skills, good at medium and long-range weapon projection, although blind, but has super hearing, looks good. In your opinion, what is his selling point?" After reading the document in his hand, Xia Shang looked up at Ashley.
Ashley said without hesitation: "He is disabled, and he is very tenacious. The American people are looking forward to such a superhero."
"Yes, take me there to see."
Then, the two came to the training site of Blind Spot, and Homelander happened to be there.
"The current trend is tolerance. They hope that some special superheroes will appear. I think if we can find a minority or a minority woman, then we will be invincible." Ashley said to the two.
To put it bluntly, it is political correctness.
"It is amazing that he can move freely even if he loses his eyesight." Homelander said with his hands behind his back, watching the training of Blind Spot.
At this time, Blind Spot, who had just finished training, walked up to Homelander excitedly because he heard Homelander's praise, "Oh, Mr. Homelander, I'm very honored..."
"Wait, you actually knew it was me?" Homelander showed an exaggerated smile: "It's amazing."
"With super ears, you don't need..." Blind Spot was interrupted by Xia Shang before he finished speaking: "Don't you need anything, don't you need help from others? Oh, young man, I really hope Walter can help you."
This guy has good super hearing, and Xia Shang doesn't want his ability to be ruined by Homelander.
"Mr. Gervis, interrupting others at will is not a polite behavior." Homelander's eyes flashed a gloomy, but then he smiled and said to Blind Spot: "Don't you need anything?"
At this time, Blind Spot realized that what he said just now was not very appropriate, "Just like this gentleman said, with super ears, you don't need help from others."
"Hahaha." The smile on Homelander's face became even brighter. He reached out and pressed Blind Spot's shoulder: "Your ability is amazing, and you, my friend, you are the real hero."
"This is not because of your work, but because of the difficulties you have overcome."
"Thank you, your praise means a lot to me." Blind Spot was very excited. You know, he is a loyal fan of Homelander.
"But..."
Homelander clasped his fingers together, and threw Blindspot aside as he wailed, "But you are too weak to be in the group of seven."
Homelander's expression changed very quickly. He turned around and looked at the two of them coldly and said, "From now on, all matters concerning me will be decided by me, my sales strategy will be approved by me, and the main points of my speech will be written by me. You two, don't try to be clever with me, especially you, Mr. Jervis.
You'd better put away those eyes in your body and don't look around, otherwise Edgar can't protect you, I said."
Ashley on the side was so scared that she dared not speak. It was obvious that Homelander wanted to treat them as his puppets, and everything in the group would only be decided by him in the future.
"Really? I don't think you are qualified to tell me this. Just now, Mr. Edgar just approved a superhero named Storm to join the Super Seven, and it seems that this matter has not been approved by you." Xia Shang was not at all false. He came in front of Homelander and looked into Homelander's eyes.
I saw that the Homelander's eyes glowed red, and he grinned: "Very good, let me see what your ability is?"
"Guess?" At the same time, Xia Shang's pupils also turned blue.
Unexpectedly, the Homelander suddenly laughed and patted Xia Shang's arms, "Oh, old man, I was just joking with you. Without your publicity, I really don't know what to do?"
"In my mind, you have always been the captain of the seven-member team, and I think it will be the same in the future." Xia Shang's face also showed the same sunny smile as the Homelander.
"Of course, our cooperation will continue."
The Homelander nodded and walked out of the training room with a smile. When he walked out of the training room, his expression returned to calm, but he was secretly angry. He knew that his real obstacle was Edgar, not Xia Shang.
He walked into the elevator and pressed the button to the 87th floor.
Looking at his departing back, Xia Shang glanced at the blind spot beside him with an indifferent expression: "Take him down for treatment, let him and Shockwave become reserve team members, after all, Walter not only has the Super Seven, other heroes can also be trained."
"Okay." Ashley, who had just come to her senses, nodded quickly.
In fact, the so-called reserve team is the ability library that Xia Shang prepared for himself. At present, the top speed of the locomotive has reached 51% under the urging of Compound No. 5. Xia Shang has tested it and found that his speed has increased by at least four times compared to before.
At the same time, Homelander has come to Edgar's office.
At this time, on the TV screen in the office, a female congressman is being interviewed.
"I am also worried about terrorists, but this does not mean that Walter can use our fear to control us."
Edgar's eyes always fell on the face of the female congressman, as if the two knew each other.
"Good morning, Homelander, I'm surprised to see you at this time." Edgar greeted Homelander.
"Don't be surprised, let's talk about the Storm Girl."
Homelander didn't talk too much nonsense and directly brought the topic to Storm Girl.
"What? You want to ask for your opinion before recruiting Storm?"
"Why not? All the members have been approved by me before." Homelander thought Edgar was challenging his authority, "Don't forget, I am the captain of the Super Seven."
"I respect your identity as the captain." Edgar smiled.
Homelander suppressed his anger and looked at Edgar: "I don't feel your respect for me. You know, even Madeline doesn't dare to play this trick with me."
Under Homelander's endless questioning, Edgar gradually put away his smile. He took off his glasses and came to Homelander, telling him that the people of the Drug Administration already knew about Compound No. 5. Unless Homelander is willing to lose everything now, don't talk nonsense with him.
"Whether I let you stand at the Golden Globe Awards ceremony and pose, or let you run around in a cloak, I don't need to ask for your opinion." Edgar's mouth corners raised slightly, and the sense of oppression he created was enough to make Homelander dare not talk to him.
