Chapter 10 is even more eye-opening than "Eyes Wide Open"
The next day, Bruce Lee visited Lin Hao's manor again. The two drove to the Li family's airport outside San Francisco and took a private jet to Los Angeles. .
The banquet was held in an old castle by the sea, not far from San Pedro Bay where Hollywood is located. Obviously this is a very suitable place for a party.
Because the organizer hoped to use this banquet to convey a signal to the outside world about the intersection between the Los Angeles Consortium and Stark Industries, many reporters were invited for formal publicity.
As a result, before the banquet started, it naturally became a catwalk show.
A large number of male and female celebrities from Hollywood took the opportunity to compete for the camera on the red carpet in front of the castle gate. They smiled sincerely on the surface, but in fact they were always clever.
“Many people here don’t have invitations, they just come here to enjoy the heat.” Bruce Lee, who was sitting in the car, smiled and explained to Lin Hao: “As long as the banquet can be open to the public, these people like flies are indispensable. Stinky people."
"This is Vanity Fair!" Bruce said with emotion, the same expression as "Boss Ma regrets starting Alibaba."
Lin Hao has participated in many similar banquets in the past five years, both meat and vegetarian. Of course, in the past, he was replaced by an artificial person. Now he is attending in person, and he will not touch his former female companion anyway.
The two of them arrived at the side entrance of the castle in a low-key luxury car, which was the real entrance for the guests.
At this time, those vying for beauty in front of the gate will be cleared after completing the cutscene. Only a small number of willing and invited male and female celebrities can enter the second half. The remaining ones are not eligible even if they want to squeeze into the second half.
However, today’s host and guest are a surprise. Although Tony Stark knows the rules, he still chooses to shine in front of the spotlight.
This is what he likes.
The organizer was helpless and had to take a group of guests to the gate to greet them.
Bruce Lee and Lin Hao were also among the guests.
Stark Industries plays a pivotal role in the Marvel Universe, especially the Marvel Cinematic Universe that kicked off with "Iron Man."
Different from reality, in the Marvel universe, Stark Industries has almost a monopoly on the supply of high-end weapons to the American military, thanks to the two genius weapon designers Howard Stark and Tony Stark. Division, Stark Industries' position in the field of weapons manufacturing is almost untouchable.
This is also the reason why the stock price will fall below the bottom when Tony announces the closure of the Stark Industries weapons manufacturing department. It is like the top ten consortiums in the United States suddenly announcing that they are bankrupt.
In order to please Tony Stark, the local consortium in California had no choice but to put on a smiley face. Bruce Lee also wanted to join in, but unfortunately he was not even qualified to join the front row.
A family fortune of tens of billions of dollars sounds like a lot, but it is the accumulation of several generations of the Li family. Bruce Lee does not have as much living money as Lin Hao.
Compared to the Bruce next door, this Bruce is indeed a bit shabby.
However, Bruce and Lin Hao next to him still caught Tony Stark's attention with their rare oriental faces.
"Wow, it seems that the atmosphere in California is still very liberal. The news a few days ago made me almost think that dark people here are afraid to go out." Tony stepped forward and extended his hand to Lin Hao Take action.
This is the first meeting between the two, and it will obviously not be the last.
Although Tony Stark is a playboy at this time, he does not discriminate against people of color. Compared with those arrogant traditional consortium figures, he is very enlightened.
"Hello, my name is Lin Hao." Lin Hao shook hands with him and introduced himself: "Singaporean Chinese, a shipping businessman."
This is another identity that Lin Hao has been operating for a long time.
“I don’t know why, I feel like you are more like a scientist.” Tony Stark stared at Lin Hao’s head.
Lin Hao remained calm and half-joked: "Indeed, I am a scientist dedicated to the study of life sciences."
All the men who knew Lin Hao next to him showed a mysterious smile. .
Tony, a fellow man, understood instantly, and he became curious.
"Really? I can't wait to see your research results."
Tony continued to greet others, but Lin Hao took a deep look at his back.
"Can people cursed by knowledge... really be able to perceive the same kind?"
"Alas..." Bruce beside him interrupted Lin Hao's reverie with a sigh: "Tony... Stark actually took the initiative to say hello to you.”
"What?" Lin Hao laughed and teased: "Are you still jealous?" "It's nothing, the family business is not my responsibility anyway." Bruce felt somewhat lonely.
Playboy also wants to prove himself!
With the arrival of Tony Stark, the first half of the banquet officially began. Several speakers from the local consortium came on stage to give brief speeches, and then a well-known Broadway musical group came on stage to accompany them, and men and women were on the dance floor. Dance.
At midnight, the organizers began to politely clear the venue, and those reporters and celebrities who were not qualified to get tickets had no choice but to leave.
After the idlers left, the atmosphere in the venue suddenly changed.
The lights dimmed, everyone put on masks, and a group of young and beautiful young men and women appeared on the stage, and their hair gradually fell away during the passionate dance.
Lin Hao, who also wore a mask, came to the center of the venue holding a copper stove and dropped a "I love a firewood".
In an instant, a faint fragrance floats.
The atmosphere at the scene suddenly became warm.
"Old Lin, I won't accompany you anymore." Bruce's blood surged, and he hugged the two young and beautiful girls and went to the next room.
“Wow, it seems that your research results are very useful.” Tony Stark, wearing a mask, walked up to Lin Hao and smiled and extended an invitation: “I will also have an event in New York next week. You must come to the banquet!”
“Okay!” Lin Hao agreed with a smile.
The effect of "I Love a Firewood" began to kick in, and the scene was in a mess, which was even more eye-opening than "Eyes Wide Open".
Lin Hao did not hold it. He held a blonde beauty who looked like Amber Heard in his left hand, and walked towards the bedroom holding a baby-faced Emma Roberts in his right hand.
He has some action tonight, so he has to save his energy, otherwise he will have to collect five golden flowers no matter what.
With Lin Hao's current fighting power, the two blonde beauties quickly surrendered and fell asleep.
Lin Hao was still worried and used acupuncture techniques to seal the sleeping points of the two of them.
Yes, the one Ouyang Feng used to seal Xiao Longnu.
He asked the little devil to open the mysterious space. After a while, Lin Hao, who used the life-returning technique to change his appearance and body shape, wore black clothes and left the castle on moon steps.
At this time, the night was already dark.
Outside the castle, there was a military vehicle parked with two black men inside.
"Colonel Roddy, do we have to wait here until dawn?" Will Fortson, who had just been promoted to captain, looked depressed.
Listening to the overwhelming sounds coming from the castle, they could only blow the cold wind outside. Who could bear this feeling?
“We don’t have an invitation and can’t get in.” James Rupert Rhodes, the future “War Machine” who is usually called Roddy, was equally depressed.
"Then let's go back to the city. At least there's a hotel where we can stay." Will Fortson suggested.
“No, if we don’t stop Tony here, he doesn’t know where he will fly to tomorrow morning.” Roddy knew this good friend’s style very well.
"But..."
"No but, don't forget that you are an air force soldier!"
Rody solemnly said: "If you can't ask Tony to design one for you With multiple weapons on land, sea and air, General Ross will definitely find an excuse to transfer you again.”
"It's okay to be transferred..." Young Will Fortson has not yet experienced the factional struggle in the American military.
"If you want to hunt down that green monster, I can help you submit an application." Rody said quietly.
"Uh..." Thinking back to the scene he saw yesterday, Will Fortson was scared: "I was kidding."
The real name of War Machine is James Rupert Lord. Si, an Air Force colonel, is often called Roddy, followed by "Rody".
