Chapter 266: First Meeting with Iron Man
Stark Industries Building in New York City.
The atmosphere in the company, which had been in a slump, gradually became active. Everyone stared at their computers in disbelief, watching their company's stock price plummet and then rise rapidly. This unprecedented rise and fall completely overturned their cognition.
"It's Yongye! It's Yongye who is helping us!"
Someone shouted loudly, and everyone was talking about it. They originally thought that Stark Industries might be unable to recover, but unexpectedly, a mysterious force suddenly emerged to help Stark Industries stabilize its stock price.
Some people who submitted their resignation applications showed their regret directly. A stabilized Stark Industries was far from being comparable to other ordinary companies.
But unfortunately, they have already done this.
dong dong dong...
There was a hurried knock on the door, and the busy young man raised his head: "Boz, come in!"
"Mr. Stark, someone used a large amount of money to buy our company's stocks that were sold at a low price, and stopped the downward trend of our company's stock price!"
Boz's face was slightly red, he spoke very quickly, his eyes were shining with a certain luster, and he was extremely excited.
"Is there anyone who would use cash to buy our company's stock? Could it be Hammer Industries? No, it can't be those guys. There's no way they can raise our company's stock price!"
Stark's brain was working fast. Even he couldn't figure out the changes in the situation. Stark Industries had suffered such a heavy blow, but there were still people helping them. Just look at those guys on Wall Street and you would know that most of the capital was taking advantage of the situation.
"Did you find out which company it was?"
"It's a large multinational company called Evernight. They are not a native American company!"
Boz had obviously made some preparations and told Stark the information about Evernight Company in a simple and clear manner.
"The Grand Duke from Great Britain? Is he the company that we had an order with before?"
Stark's face was full of surprise. The originally dire situation had undergone a surprising reversal, and it turned out to be an arms company with which he had cooperated before.
"Yes! Ever since that deal, our transactions with the other company have never ended. Even after Mr. Howard left, we didn't stop trading with them!"
"Um!?"
Stark immediately understood the hidden meaning in it, and his eyes lit up. He felt that he had guessed the answer.
"He should be an old friend of father? But why does father have a British duke friend? Why have I never heard him talk about him?"
"friend?"
Boz was confused. She didn't know why Stark thought the other person was Howard's friend.
"My father is extremely strict in dealing in arms, and most of his arms business is in cooperation with the U.S. Department of Defense. But this Duke from England is different. Such a large order transaction has continued until now. Obviously, something is not normal. If they don't know each other, this is impossible!
Even the U.S. Department of Defense will trace the origins of weapons sold by Stark Industries. This Evernight company must have extraordinary power and connections. "
Stark immediately discovered the key to the problem by looking at the tip of the iceberg. After hearing his explanation, Boz, who had just been promoted to the president's secretary, couldn't help but admire him secretly.
"If that's the case, we don't need to resell the other industrial chains of Stark Industries. This is a great thing for us..."
The more Stark thought about it, the more excited he became. The funds that suddenly poured into Stark Industries would be the key for them to turn the tide and overcome difficulties.
For such a great favor, he had to find a way to thank him in person!
"Boz, I want you to contact the person in charge of Evernight Company. I want to meet with him!"
Stark's face was serious. This time it could be said that he was helping someone in a time of need. No matter what, he had to meet the other party.
As Boz left, he stopped what he was doing and began to look through Stark Industries' information files, trying to find out information about Evernight.
Soon, news reports from various countries and reports on the development of America's Eternal Night were compiled.
Stark's eyes widened as he looked at the messages above. His gaze came to the core files. As the messages unfolded, a handsome Asian face with eyes that seemed to be smiling came into view.
"Chinese? Grand Duke of Yongye? Shit, how did this guy become a duke?"
Stark couldn't help but let out a strange cry. More and more information was collected. Looking at the business expansion of Evernight Company and its current development direction, even the usually proud Stark couldn't hide his shock.
Yongye Food, Yongye Real Estate, Yongye Medical, Jewelry, Biology, Machinery, Military Industry, Funds, Banks, Private Arms, etc. They even have a film and television entertainment company! "..."
However, these extremely broad businesses were not what shocked Stark the most. When he saw the international assessment of Yongye Company's private armed forces, his mouth instantly became an O shape, and his whole face showed a funny look.
"Do the Eternal Night arms distributed in Europe and Africa have the power to destroy a small country?"
Is this a legitimate company?
At this moment, Stark felt a little regretful about his intention to invite the head of Evernight Company. After seeing how Evernight Arms expelled the Egyptian mercenaries, he even suspected that they were a group of terrorists in company uniforms.
How can there be a way of expelling people by simply killing them all?
Does this damn thing have any more royal laws?
Looking at the mastermind behind all this, Lin Jue, who has an exceptionally young appearance, the always proud Stark also showed admiration. When he saw the time when Eternal Night Company was established, he was completely stunned.
"So, what kind of friend did father make?"
Unable to help but mutter to himself, Stark stared blankly at the bustling center of New York outside the floor-to-ceiling window.
……
"Ms. Boz! Do we really want to invite the Grand Duke of Evernight? I heard that many high-ranking figures in America wanted to meet him, but were all turned away. That guy not only possesses amazing wealth, but also has a high status!"
A Stark Industries backbone advised hesitantly that Evernight also had arms business and in some ways, it could be considered a competitor of Stark Industries, so they naturally conducted some investigations and paid attention to it.
As the complete controller of Eternal Night, the identity of the Grand Duke of Eternal Night is no longer a secret among major business tycoons in America.
There are countless people who have ideas about him and even want to win him over, but no one has been able to meet him in person.
Even the construction of the Eternal Night Building and its policy tilt were the responsibility of its apparent host, Aldridge, the controller of the Eternal Night Fund!
"Yes, regardless of whether we can invite the Grand Duke of Eternal Night or not? At least we should try. Eternal Night Company is no longer just an ordinary partner. After this turmoil, he may become the second largest shareholder of our company..."
Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment, but at the same time, their eyes were filled with unstoppable excitement. Such a powerful opponent suddenly became their ally in the blink of an eye. One can imagine how excited they were.
Soon, everyone in the public relations department began to contact the news or people related to Eternal Night, and public opinion and communication were carried out simultaneously.
The next day, news about Tony Stark, the new successor of Stark Industries, solemnly inviting the managers of Evernight Group was everywhere. The news mainly stated that Stark Industries expressed gratitude for the help of Evernight Group and also included a statement of solemn invitation.
Regarding this kind of flashy news, Lin Jue felt that although Tony Stark is still so young, his love of showing off has already begun to show.
Fortunately, Lin Jue also wanted to meet this guy. After all, one of his favorite Marvel heroes in his previous life was the guy who was on par with gods in human form.
"Tsk, we're finally meeting...Tony Stark!"
……
The next day, the news that Grand Duke Eternal Night arrived in America and accepted the invitation to become the new leader of Stark Industries directly made headlines in American newspapers.
The Stark Industries stock, which had originally stabilized, was surging at an exaggerated speed, and was heading madly towards its original stock price.
At the same time, the attention of capital giants and political officials was attracted.
Everyone was discussing the recent events surrounding Stark Industries. As the background of the Grand Duke of Evernight was made public, all those who were interested showed puzzled expressions after investigating.
No matter how you look at it, the Grand Duke of Eternal Night is simply the legendary chosen one, and the development time of the Eternal Night Group has instantly shocked a group of people.
Soon, the time came for the two giant companies to negotiate and communicate.
The most luxurious hotel in downtown New York City was surrounded by crowds of people, but patrol police soon cleared a path leading directly to the New York Bridge.
Reporters from various famous newspapers and magazines had already occupied the high ground. They were frantically photographing the surroundings with their cameras, and had already thought of how to report on this spectacular scene.
As a black extended Lincoln sedan slowly drove in, all the reporters instantly went crazy. They ignored the patrol police's obstruction and rushed towards the convoy frantically. When the people in the car got out, these reporters showed disappointed expressions again.
Young Stark had a big smile on his face and gestured around with his hands. He liked the feeling of being the center of attention, but soon he discovered that more reporters seemed to be looking behind him.
Stark immediately realized something and turned around to look.
It is also an extended version of the sedan, but unlike the Stark, this black sedan has extremely gorgeous and mysterious golden patterns on it, and there is also a special logo on the front of the car body, a black sun emitting a golden halo.
This is the logo of the Evernight Group. The completely different and cool style of this car immediately attracted everyone's attention. It was the first time for most people to see such a cool appearance, as if it was an aesthetic dimensionality reduction attack that was decades ahead of this era.
They understood what this unique car meant, and everyone's face was filled with excitement and craziness.
Possessing immeasurable wealth and power, the mysterious Grand Duke of Eternal Night is finally about to show up!
