It wasn't long before returning to the company after her maternity leave. With Pepper's current situation, Stark certainly wouldn't hand over all the work to her.

The things that require hard work are mainly done by Stark. For example, those projects that need to cooperate with other forces.

After Pepper returned to the company, he did some internal management work during this period. The workload is not too heavy, and the intensity is average. In addition, Jarvis is there to assist her, sharing part of the pressure for her. For Pepper himself, these tasks are quite easy now.

The same goes for today's meeting.

Not only was there no delay, but the end time was even advanced by more than ten minutes.

Back in the CEO's office, Pepper was even a little unsatisfied.

"Ms. Pepper." Just as Pepper was about to take out her mobile phone and make a video call with Morgan, who was left at Shi Xiaolei's home, the little secretary who had just received Quentin Baker came outside her office and raised her hand Knocked on the door.

"Come in."

"While you were in a meeting just now, a gentleman named Quentin Baker came and expressed his desire to meet with you."

"Really? Where is he now?" Pepper asked as he put the phone back in his pocket.

"It's in the waiting room. Do you need me to call him over?" the little secretary responded.

"Well, call him over. I just happen to have a little time now."

After receiving Pepper's order, the little secretary turned and left, went to the waiting room and brought Quentin Baker who had been waiting for a while.

Without Pepper's instructions, and without asking Quentin Baker's intentions, the little secretary returned to Pepper's back and stood there quietly after he prepared coffee for the two of them. It is one of the duties of the little secretary to make the key points of the conversation into a memorandum. In addition, it was also because Stark had issued an order early on that when Pepper met the 'stranger', someone must stay with her at the scene to ensure her personal safety.

Well, with the ubiquitous Jarvis watching, it's actually more than enough for both tasks. From the actual situation, it doesn't mean that the little secretary has to stay to ensure that these two things will not go wrong.

The main reason is that Stark is not at ease. It was because he cared too much about Pepper that he had the current arrangement.

"Mr. Baker, did you come to see me today because of the previous transfer order?"

"Yes." Nodding, Quentin Baker showed a slightly excited expression: "Ms. Pepper, I want to confirm with you. After going to Los Angeles, this project in my hand will get more Do you pay attention? I mean, is the company going to focus on supporting this project? If so, what should I do?"

Nothing is free in this world. It is impossible for Quentin Baker not to know this truth in his life.

Moreover, job transfer itself also means that the job content will change accordingly.

Quentin Baker would ask, 'What do I need to do', and it's a matter of course.

"You guessed right." Looking at Quentin Baker with an expectant face, Pepper smiled and nodded affirmatively: "After you went to Los Angeles, to be precise, after you joined the newly established film and television production company, you The project in hand will receive more investment. What you have to do is to use the existing research results and put them into practical use as much as possible.”

"You mean... use it for special effects movies?"

"This is the case at the moment." Pepper nodded: "I have read the research report you submitted, and I have a general understanding of the research progress of your project. Because the research progress is not deep enough, the effectiveness it can exert is not enough. Very limited. At this stage, I want to ensure that it can handle it and maximize its effectiveness to reflect its value... I have considered it for several days, and I think making a movie can be regarded as a more practical way.”

"I also know that it's a bit overkill. However, this is a way to get the best of both worlds, isn't it?" Looking at Quentin Baker who was thinking, Pepper continued: "Staying bored in the laboratory may speed up the derivation. The speed of theory, but looking at it from another perspective, there is a risk of being divorced from reality. If you can conduct research and verify it in combination with practice... I think, you don’t need me to explain it thoroughly, you can understand what I mean.”

"Yes, I can understand what you mean." Quentin Baker nodded: "At this stage, the results we have obtained are still a little bit less. Considering the actual situation, at best it can only be brought Make a movie."

"You don't have to be discouraged." Feeling the regret in Quentin Baker's heart, Pepper said with a smile: "I am still very optimistic about this project. No, not only me, Tony also thinks it has great promise."

"Really?" Upon hearing this, Quentin Baker immediately got excited.

"Of course. But I'm sorry, I can't repeat what he said at the time. You also know that I'm just a manager and I don't understand scientific research at all." Pepper shrugged helplessly and gave Quentin Baker an apology Smiling: "He commented a lot at that time~lightnovelpub.net~ but most of the words were proper nouns that I didn't understand. Hehe, I didn't understand them at the time, so naturally I can't remember them now."

Quentin Baker also laughed: "That's right, the proper nouns that only people in the industry will use are really hard for others to remember. Just like when I went to the hospital for an examination, the doctors and nurses told me I also don’t understand more than half of those words.”

"All in all, Tony is really optimistic about your research." Pepper retracted the topic and continued: "Besides, the research is already very valuable to this extent. At least in my opinion, it has extraordinary value, especially in publicity.”

"publicity?"

"Why do you want to study this project, and what purpose do you want to achieve in the end, I won't make random guesses. Anyway, I can't see through it or guess it. No matter how much I think about it, I just embarrass myself." Pepper said with a smile: "I just want to I will focus on the present, starting from its existing functions, to see what it can be used for. Maybe it is just a side effect for you, and there is nothing worth nostalgic about, but in the eyes of a layman like me, even if it is just a derivative, as long as it can When it comes in handy, that’s a valuable outcome.”

"Let me give you an example. Let's say use it to make a movie. You must have heard of the dinosaur paradise on Niihau Island, right?"

"Yes, I went there once when I was on vacation before."

"If we want to make a film to promote it and attract more tourists to visit there." Looking at Quentin Baker, Pepper painted a picture: "Although with the dinosaurs on the island, we can already shoot It is an amazing film. But if you add the technology you have developed now, what kind of effect do you think the final film will have?"

"this…"
