Chapter 127 R: The Bat Incident (VIII)
Chapter 127 R Bat Incident (VIII)
It took Stark about 20 minutes to read the report carefully, then threw the stack of papers on the table and said, "It's all nonsense."
"Anyone who has received a university degree or above in biology can see that this is complete nonsense."
"After all, I am a psychiatrist, and I don't have any biological education background. Besides, this is just an outline. What specific content to fill in depends on you genius scientists..."
Stark hesitated for a moment, and he picked up the report again. He said, "It may seem very reasonable to outsiders, but it is actually very outrageous. But I just thought about it and it seems a little reasonable..."
Stark pinched the report with a tangled face and said, "Vampires Blood contains immortality factors that humans can use? This is too far-fetched... Forget it, can you tell me more about this part? "
"Didn't Dr. Connors say that? Their blood contains a magical factor that science cannot crack, so I'll give it a name, called 'immortality factor', isn't that too much?"
"Well, this barely makes sense, after all, you are the only one among these people who knows magic, and besides..." Stark hesitated and asked, "Are you sure this factor can really make people immortal?"
"Whether it can really make people immortal is not important, what's important is, when you see this conclusion, do you have any impulse?"
"Or, what were you thinking when you asked this question just now?"
Stark pursed his lips, he lowered his eyes, and then Then he pretended to be calm and put down the pile of information, saying: "Okay, I admit that any human will have this idea, how nice it would be if I could live forever..."
"I'm not greedy, but I really think that if I can have 500 years... no, just 300 years, if I can have a lifespan of 300 years, then I can really change the world..."
His Adam's apple moved, then he turned his head to look out the window and said: "You are really a devil. When I saw this sentence, I even had a moment of wanting to use some uncontrollable power to capture and study these monsters..."
"No one can resist this temptation." Schiller said: "Even if he is a saint, he will feel sad when facing a lifespan of less than 100 years. "This is humans. Human beings often live short and brilliant. We often use this." Is it not firm enough for me to deal with vampires? Even if there is no such temptation, I will want to eliminate them all. " Schiller took out a pair of headphones from his pocket and handed it to Stark, and then said, "I have an appointment with a guest, he should have already arrived at the conference room now." "Thank you for giving me the highest level of security permissions so that I can invite others to visit with you." "Wait! Who did you invite? "Stark put on the headphones, and then he was pushed out of the laboratory by Schiller. He had a very bad premonition. Stark said, "Don't tell me that you invited an important person from Congress here. My God! I can't deal with them! No! Wait... I won't go..."
"Don't worry, it's not those politicians."
Stark stared at Schiller suspiciously, but Schiller said nothing. The two of them stared at each other for a long time. Stark said, "Damn it, you liar doctor! You did it on purpose, right? You cheated me of the highest level of security clearance!"
"Don't say it so harshly, you opened it to me yourself."
10 minutes later, when Stark saw Norman Osborn in the conference room, he covered his forehead and whispered into the headphones, "I'm going to deduct all your salary! I'm not kidding!! Why did you invite this old guy here?"
"Okay, now he has seen you, it's useless if you don't want to talk. Listen, I want you to negotiate a business with him. "
"Talk about business? Why should I talk about business with Osborn? Their technology is completely rubbish..."
"That's not important. Go up and shake his hand now, and then I'll tell you what to do."
Stark had a dark face, as if he was going to the execution ground. He shook hands with Norman reluctantly. Norman didn't mind. He was a standard American businessman, wearing a suit and leather shoes. There were some white hair on both sides of his temples, but he looked very energetic.
Norman spoke first. He said, "Mr. Stark, this is my first time to come to Stark Tower. It is much more advanced than I thought. It really opened my eyes..."
Stark raised his head and uttered a "hmm" sound from his nose. Schiller said in the headset: "Look at him. If you could talk half as well as he does, I wouldn't have to work so hard."
"I heard that your company has mastered a healing serum technology and is interested in selling it."
Stark could only parrot what Schiller said in his headset: "Yes, but we'll talk about this later. There's a better deal in front of you now. Do you want to listen to it?"
Norman's expression didn't change. He said: "So the healing serum technology doesn't exist, so what do you want to talk to me about?"
"Of course this technology exists, but before we get to the main course, we should talk about the appetizer."
"You should have heard about the accident at the Brooklyn Bridge. Hundreds of vampires are attacking humans."
"Yes, the military has also purchased a batch of weapons from the Osborn Group for this purpose."
Stark took out a plan and handed it to Osborn, then he whispered into the headset: "You just showed him the plan? It's all nonsense. Norman also has a Ph.D. in biology. You can't fool him."
"He is different from you. He is a businessman first and then a scientist."
To Stark's surprise, after reading the plan, Norman did not point out the mistakes like a rigorous scientist, but his face began to become brighter and brighter. He said: "Mr. Stark, I didn't expect that you are so talented in business!"
Stark said: "What? Ah, I mean... what do you think of this plan? Is there anything wrong?"
"A genius hype idea!" Norman concluded: "Medicinal value! Yes, that's right... That's the word, I like this word so much!"
"This is a great opportunity. If we can really package the parts of the vampire's body into nutritional supplements or health products, then we can definitely make a fortune."
"Think about it, now the raw materials are falling from the sky, whether it is the Congress, the military or any other forces, they will ****."
But Stark said: "I want to remind you that we can't actually crack the magic factor in their blood, and we can't be sure whether it has the effect of immortality..."
"Is it important?" Norman stared at Stark's eyes and said: "It's best if it can't be cracked. We can't crack something that can't be cracked. If it is impossible to prove that it is useful, then no one can prove that it is useless. "
Norman took the plan and flipped through it again, saying: "Immortality factor? Indeed, the name may be a bit exaggerated, but it is not a medicine, but a health product, and the effect needs to be based on the actual effect. "
"We don't need to promote it. Vampires are a living example. They can all be immortal and can heal quickly after being injured. "
"Everything that is happening in Brooklyn now is the best advertisement."
"The whole world knows that there is a species that can live for hundreds or thousands of years and is fighting against humans at an extremely fast healing speed."
"Soon, the aftermath of this incident will continue to ferment, and the whole world will know about the war situation of vampires invading humans. Their characteristics will also be written on the front page of every newspaper."
"What is this? This is a worldwide publicity with huge exposure! What other advertisement can match this publicity? "
"At this time, our two companies will join forces. You know, the industrial giant Stark and the pharmaceutical giant Osborn, we will join forces to prove that there is a mysterious factor in the blood of vampires that can extend the lifespan of humans. This is very likely, right? After all, they are immortal species."
"This can even open up a new industry field, the research on the medicinal value of non-human species." Stark imitated Schiller and said: "Not only vampires, there may be other creatures in the future."
"And what we have to do is to use our scientific and technological credibility to tell the world that these species have considerable medicinal value."
"That's right!" Norman clenched his fist and said: "I think so too. Once this succeeds, everyone will believe that we have the ability to identify the research value of alien species. It is indeed as you said, we can completely open up a new industry, which will bring unimaginable huge profits. "
Finally, Norman stood up without hesitation and said, "I will organize experts to improve this plan now. Mr. Stark, I have to say that although this idea is genius, your plan is not very professional."
Seeing Stark's face getting darker and darker, Norman continued, "But I know that this is because you want to see the sincerity of the Osborn Group, so you deliberately do this. I don't believe that the Stark Group can't even find a few biological experts."
"But this is also reasonable. Your idea is already worth tens of billions of profits. I didn't expect that Stark Industries and Osborn Biological Group would start cooperation under such circumstances. "
"But I have to say that this must be a good start. You will understand that Osborn is a rare and trustworthy partner in the world."
After that, Norman shook hands with Stark again, and then left in a hurry.
Stark was still a little confused. He said: "What did he mean just now? I think he misunderstood something?"
"It doesn't matter. What he said is not wrong anyway. It's just that the biological experts hired by Stark Group are busy saving the world..."
"...Save in the physical sense."
