Since Tony announced the closure of the weapon research and development department, the market value of Stark Industries has dropped a lot.

Coupled with the fact that Stark Industries no longer accepts new military orders, the market value, which has already fallen a lot, has become even worse.

After experiencing the initial plunge, Stark Industries finally stabilized its market value. With various technologies ahead of the industry, it firmly occupied the number one market value position in the military industry.

However, the current Stark Industries can no longer be regarded as a pure military enterprise, but should be regarded as a commercial giant involved in multiple industries.

Although the shares under Tony's name are not as valuable as before, half of the shares under his name is still an astronomical figure.

Let's put it this way, the total market value of Octopus Monster is almost equal to the market value of half of Tony's shares.

Even though Octopus Industry has emerged in the military industry like a rising star in the past six months, compared with Stark Industries, an old giant that has been established for decades, Octopus Industry still has a long way to go. way to go.

If there is really a so-called "Howard" by his side, Russell will definitely not mind fulfilling Tony's wish and accepting the expensive reward from Tony.

But the problem is, there is no "Howard" around him at all.

If it's just a simple exchange, he can let No. 3 impersonate.

But it was obvious that what Tony wanted to communicate with "Howard" was an extremely professional topic.

No. 3 is indeed a very powerful artificial intelligence, but No. 3 still has the common weakness of artificial intelligence.

creativity!

Whether it's his No. 3, or Tony's Jarvis, or any other artificial intelligence, they are not really creative.

Humans are far inferior to AI in areas such as calculations and statistics.

But the creativity that humans have is an area that artificial intelligence will never be able to touch.

This is the exclusive domain of human beings!

After a few seconds of silence, Russell looked at Tony and said slowly: "I can understand your desire to see Howard, but I'm sorry, I can't arrange for you to meet."

"Howard is not my subordinate, I can't make decisions for him."

"However, I can tell Howard for you. If he agrees to see you, I will give you his contact information."

After hearing Russell's answer, Tony's expression quickly darkened.

Palladium poisoning wasn't the whole reason he wanted to see Howard, nor was the reactor used by the Endosymbiosis fighter.

The real reason Tony wanted to meet Howard was simply because he wanted to meet this true genius who was a block ahead of him.

Although Tony usually calls himself a genius, he is not arrogant enough to think that he is the smartest human being.

More importantly, he feels that Howard is simply another self, a him who has gone further than the current him.

Whether it's out of curiosity, or out of the idea that it's hard to find a confidant or an opponent, he really wants to meet Howard.

Even if he just sat down face to face to drink a glass of wine and chat about today's weather, he would really like to see Howard himself.

Russell has no mind reading skills, so he has no way of knowing Tony's true thoughts.

However, even if he knew, he would not tell Tony that the Howard he was talking about was Tony from another world, an evil version of Tony.

"Well, since that's the case, then I won't force you."

"You can't decide about Howard, but you can always decide about the armor."

"I want to study your armor, to be precise, I want to study the reactor of the armor, what reward will I have to pay before you agree?"

Tony didn't doubt Russell's words.

If he is Howard, he will certainly not follow other people's arrangements at will, which is not surprising.

Since he couldn't see Howard, who he was thinking of, he could only settle for the next best thing, and set his target on the reactor of the endosymbiotic armor.

"That... Actually, have you ever thought about it? You haven't found a substitute for palladium because you focused on existing elements."

"What a great invention the miniaturized Ark reactor is, you don't need to tell me."

"Using existing elements to power such a great invention, don't you think it looks very wrong?"

Russell does not intend to hand over the endosymbiotic armor to Tony for research.

Still, he didn't mind giving Tony some reminders.

According to the plot of the movie universe, it should be Nick Fury who reminded Tony.

But now, since Nick Fury has no time to pay attention to Tony, who has not yet become "Iron Man", he can only do this matter.

"You mean to invent a new element that doesn't exist on Earth to replace palladium?"

Tony frowned at Russell.

"Can't it, the Ark reactor is a cross-age invention, and if you want to match the Ark reactor, of course you need a brand new element."

"You're building a new house, sure you're not going to keep the old furniture?"

Russell took a sip of the whiskey in the glass and said slowly.

"This is impossible. The invention of new elements is not as simple as you think. This is not something that today's technology can do."

Tony shook his head and said.

"The ark reactor on your chest is not a technology that should appear in this era!"

Russell pointed to Tony's chest and said.

"Do you know something? I don't like guessing riddles. If you know something, you can tell me directly."

Tony was starting to get a little impatient.

"This is not the attitude you should have when asking for help, but forget it, for the sake of everyone's acquaintance, I don't care about you."

Russell first put down the wine glass in his hand, then looked at Tony, and said seriously: "Although you made the Ark Reactor successfully miniaturized and operated, if I remember correctly, the Ark Reactor was not your invention, you Father Howard was the real inventor."

"Give you a gossip that you may not know. Your father Howard is one of the founders of SHIELD. He has some personal items left in SHIELD."

"You are his only son~lightnovelpub.net~ If you ask for it, they can't refuse you."

"He loves you more than you think, and he is bigger than you think."

"He won't just watch you die, it's not shameful for a son to seek his father's help!"

Although Russell knew how to invent new elements, he would not tell Tony the answer directly.

This is the father-son communication between Tony and Howard across time and space!

"Did the ancestors of the florists bless culture?"

Tony said slowly.

"Culture has countries, but fatherly love has no countries."

"Whether you want to seek your father's help or not is up to you."

After speaking, Russell stood up, left the living room without looking back, and flew towards the Octopus Building.
