Chapter 1537: Schiller Is Not at Home Today (Part 1)

Nick's office was still discussing Schiller's disappearance. Stark sighed and said, "He deliberately disappeared to cause us to worry and guide us to find him. If we do as he wishes, there must be a lot of messy plans waiting for us behind the scenes."

"I don't agree that everyone should go to find Schiller." Nick sighed and said, "I also think that his disappearance must have a reason. If we rashly find him and disrupt his plan, it will be bad, but we can't do nothing to avoid being unprepared when his "big surprise" comes."

"Let's do what you should do step by step. I will arrange for agents to search around the earth and contact Loki to let him see if there is any trace of Schiller in the universe and keep an eye on Schiller's movements."

The other people looked at each other and felt that this was the best solution. After all, everyone is very busy now, and no one can do nothing to run around the world looking for people for a big plan that may exist but is hard to see the tip of the iceberg.

"After all, Dr. Schiller won't harm us, right?" Peter said to Steve as he walked away.

Steve shrugged and said, "Every time Schiller prepares a big surprise, it can make the earth civilization take a big step forward. If the way of announcement is not so shocking, we won't be so worried."

Everyone else walked out, and Eddie stayed in Nick's office. He sat opposite Nick and said to him, "Regarding the plan for the documentary I mentioned to you before, I have thought of a new plan. What do you think?"

Nick took the pile of documents from Eddie, browsed them carefully, nodded while reading, and then looked at Eddie with a slightly surprised look and said, "I am surprised at your long-term vision, Mr. Block. This kind of unit drama documentary based on groups is indeed much more vivid than personal biographies."

Nick sat down, holding the pile of information in one hand and putting on his glasses in the other, and said as he read: "Describing someone's personality from a God's perspective always seems a bit thin and pale. If it is accompanied by a short story that restores the scene and combines the background of the times, it will be much more vivid."

"But this is not as good as many members evaluating each other in a group and presenting their relationship from a multi-faceted perspective. People like to discuss the relationship between them more than the superheroes themselves, don't they?"

Eddie put his hands on the table and said: "I think so too. When I was working at the Global Times, I often heard my colleagues talk about the relationship between Iron Man and Captain America. Some said they were close, some said they were enemies, and they each Insisting on one thing always leads to heated discussions. "

"Complex multi-angle relationships are easy to attract attention. The discussion of relationships will have a lot of topic traffic, which can also ensure economic benefits, but the initial investment will definitely be large, and it requires cooperation from all parties."

Nick pushed his glasses and said, "Don't worry about this. SHIELD will ensure that the superheroes under our jurisdiction will cooperate with your filming. It's a pity that Dr. Schiller is not here now, otherwise he would be the best person to coordinate the relationship between all parties."

"Oh, in fact, this idea was proposed by him." Eddie was afraid that Nick would misunderstand, so he hurriedly explained: "This is not my plagiarism. He proposed a general framework, and I supplemented the draft details on this basis, but it was indeed Schiller's idea."

Nick immediately opened his eyes wide, his eyeballs turned slightly, put down the documents in his hand, looked into Eddie's eyes and said: "Are you sure this is Schiller's idea?"

Eddie nodded. He didn't understand why Nick suddenly changed his attitude, but soon Nick restrained his emotions, handed the documents in his hand back to Eddie, and said: "You go to perfect the first phase of the plan, I will raise funds and coordinate personnel, how about we meet next Monday?"

"Of course, if there are any problems, I will call your office."

After Eddie left Nick's office, Nick immediately stood up from his seat, ran to the security telephone desk, pulled the telephone line with one hand, and held the receiver to his ear with the other hand.

"Hey, Natasha, come to my office immediately."

Natasha came over soon. Seeing Nick's serious face, she was a little puzzled. Nick looked at Natasha and said, "Have you heard about Schiller's disappearance?"

Natasha nodded. The female agent shrugged indifferently and continued, "Schiller must be planning some plan that is linked together. Anyway, no one in this universe can hurt him. There is no need to worry."

"Yes, he must be planning something, and I have received his hint."

Nick sat back at his desk and picked up a piece of paper. While writing and drawing, he said, "We just found out that Schiller disappeared and gathered here to discuss. Eddie stayed and gave me a draft of the documentary plan that Schiller came up with. This is the clue he left for me. He must want me to cooperate with him to do something."

Nick tapped his fingertips and said, "The question is what is the connection between the documentary shooting plan and his disappearance, and what should I do..."

Natasha sat opposite Nick, with her arms folded on the table. She knew Nick needed another perspective to help him sort out his thoughts, so she said immediately.

"I have heard about ABC's filming plan, but I remember that the general concept they proposed at that time was to shoot a biography of key figures, but after all, this plan is an important ongoing plan, and they don't know the scale of the filming, so they found Eddie."

"Eddie found Schiller with this idea." Nick said, "But it's not surprising. If anyone knows the superheroes in New York best, it must be Schiller."

"Schiller thinks this is a good thing, but he modified the content of the plan, from shooting a personal biography to shooting a unit drama of the group... Yes, that's the key."

Nick frowned and said while thinking, "If you shoot a personal biography, then the emphasis must be on the personal charm of a certain superhero, but if you shoot a group biography, it is inevitable that it involves a certain team. 's concept, thought, and member relationship..."

"There are quite a few superhero teams, but we haven't paid much attention to them." Natasha frowned and said, "Since the solar system development plan was implemented, the focus of SHIELD's work has changed from intelligence to coordinating personnel and resources on Earth and maximizing the efficiency of cosmic development. We haven't paid attention to the situation of the New York superhero team for a long time."

Nick sighed and said, "Schiller will not shoot without a purpose. It seems that there may be some problems with the New York superhero team. Let's put down the work at hand and send a few teams to investigate. I want to see the detailed information of all teams before tonight."

Natasha took the order and left, but before the evening, she returned to Nick's office with a pile of information, frowning and serious.

Nick stood up immediately when he saw Natasha's expression. Since the earth entered a period of rapid development, he hasn't seen such a solemn expression on the face of the black widow for a long time.

"What's wrong?"

"The situation is not optimistic."

Natasha shook her head, took out two documents and handed them to Nick, saying: "The agents investigated all the superhero teams currently stationed in New York. Unfortunately, more than 80% of the superhero teams are in name only, including the Avengers you formed."

Nick slightly widened his eyes and looked down at the information in his hand. The most significant data was that the Avengers' base had not submitted any logistics applications for cleaning needs for more than three months.

In the past, the hypocritical Tony Stark would ask SHIELD to send ten or eight cleaners to clean the base thoroughly every time the Avengers used it.

This means that the members of the Avengers have not gathered there for at least three months, and there have not even been combat meetings.

He looked at the remaining investigation reports on superhero teams in Natasha's hand. There are more than 60 superhero teams under the jurisdiction and funding of SHIELD in New York, most of which are teams of five to ten people. The report submitted by the logistics department shows that about 60% of the teams have no signs of activity in the past three months, and the members are missing.

The remaining more than 40 superhero teams under surveillance have also reduced their activity traces by 50% compared with a year ago.

Nick frowned and said, "This may be because the public security situation in New York has improved significantly, especially those super criminals who are beyond the scope of ordinary people's response have almost disappeared. Without super criminals, there is naturally no need for superheroes, let alone a united superhero team."

"So what should we do now?" Natasha asked.

Nick paused, sighed and said: "The Superhero Registration Act may not be a completely bad thing. At least it can let us know which superheroes are controllable and which are not."

"For those superheroes whose abilities are completely controllable and who can choose to be ordinary people, we should naturally suggest them to return to their original lives, but if their abilities and personalities are unstable, disbanding the superhero team will make them more likely to become a safety hazard."

"If the superhero team is forcibly retained, those superheroes who have long returned to a peaceful life will definitely not be willing to be forced to gather, or the stable and unstable factors in a team will conflict as a result. , causing even bigger trouble. "

Nick touched his forehead and said, "I was so busy in the past year that I forgot that there was such a big problem in New York. Fortunately, Schiller reminded me. "

"I guess he couldn't stand it a long time ago." Natasha smiled and said, "Don't forget, those superhero teams funded by us don't work and eat logistics funds. How can Schiller stand this?"

"I can't stand it either." Nick walked out from behind the desk, adjusted his tie and walked out the door: "Notify all departments to prepare for a meeting in ten minutes. The theme of the meeting is to integrate and reorganize the New York superhero team."

"By the way, call the captain and ask him to come to the meeting. If we want to establish a new superhero team system, we need a leader, and he is the best candidate."

"What about Iron Man?"

"If he comes, he should pay the cleaners first. Don't think about taking a penny of my logistics funds. Haven't I lost enough?"
