Chapter 290 Is this a war threat to the United States?
When the two steel armors entered the conference room together, the old man sitting at the head of the oval conference table suddenly stood up and actually applauded.
“Welcome our genius weapons inventor Mr. Tony Stark!”
This man named Tom Vilsack was once the Secretary of Agriculture of the United States, and Washington was planted After a mushroom bomb, Congress, the Pentagon, and the White House were all wiped out, and the first eight people eligible to succeed the president were all "lost."
So the ninth-ranked Secretary of Agriculture got lucky and became the first person in the history of the United States to take over as president with this position.
On the day of Washington's accident, he happened to be inspecting the central agricultural area and escaped unhurt.
Ascending to a high position suddenly, Tom was trembling with fear, walking on thin ice.
He didn’t know if he could make it to the other side.
As a mere technocrat, he is obviously unable to cope with the current era of drastic changes, let alone the ability to lead the United States, a ship with holes, out of the storm.
However, the conglomerates behind the scenes need to rebuild the framework of the federal government, and they dare not risk the disapproval of the world and drag the United States back to the "family rule" model that only existed in feudal society.
Behind the scenes is behind the scenes, and the fig leaf on the surface cannot be thrown away.
This is politics.
Seeing Ryukyu becoming independent on the front foot, and the Divine Spear Bureau releasing the spaceship on the back foot, Tom really couldn't handle this dilemma, so he could only call the professionals over step by step to brainstorm ideas.
As an American genius, Tony Stark, who developed a cross-era weapon such as the Iron Armor, undoubtedly had a lot of expectations from Tom.
Among American scientists and engineers, the person most promising to build a spaceship is indeed Tony Stark. After all, this is the Marvel Universe.
In "Avengers 3" he was able to operate Thanos' spaceship after just one viewing, and in "Avengers 4" he was able to repair the "Guardians of the Galaxy" spaceship.
Objectively speaking, Tony Stark is indeed the most promising to build a spaceship.
Unfortunately, the drunken and hazy Tony has not been able to recover yet, and his numb eyes are looking around unconsciously.
Some of these guys looked familiar to him, but most of them were unfamiliar to him. Listening to the applause, Tony only felt noisy.
“Tony has been busy with work recently. In fact, he has been busy for almost two years and has accumulated too much fatigue.” His friend Rhodes quickly stood up to cover, showing a sad look on his face: "In order to give the United States the power to deal with the extraordinary, Tony has been working hard to upgrade his armor for the past two years."
This is true. Different from the original work, the American military today does not only have a steel armor called a "war machine". In order to deal with the crisis, the military established a "Steel Legion".
It is a pity that Tony, the general counsel, can never be upgraded as fast as Lin Hao can make trouble.
The power of the steel armor has just been raised, the military has just rolled out the production line, and the finished product has not even had time to be painted, and an even more powerful transcendent has descended on the United States.
Who received this stimulation?
No one who knows the inside story can tell lies and ignore Tony Stark’s contribution to the United States.
"Yes, Mr. Stark has worked really hard!" Tom sighed with emotion, with a tangled look on his face: "But..."
"Sir, let's start drafting a plan first and discuss what we can do with the existing technology. No matter what step you take, let Tony rest for a while, and let him make up for it in the end."
Rhodes is really worried about his friend.
"Okay, let's start the discussion first."
After saying this, Tom sat down again and began to listen.
He used to be the Minister of Agriculture, and he could not even be said to have a comprehensive understanding of agricultural technology, let alone spacecraft manufacturing technology?
"Boeing and Houston Rockets, please introduce..."
Faced with the pressure from the Spear Bureau, if the United States can come up with a spacecraft as soon as possible, even if the performance is inferior , even if they can only take astronauts to the solar system for a loop and then come back, the media under their control can also boast and restore the image of the "world hegemon".
So the countermeasures of the "Fine Eagles" are actually very simple. Just follow one another and just take out a spaceship. But it must be successfully launched. It is best to go around the moon and Mars, and this time it must not be a simulated cabin photography.
Because the Divine Spear Bureau's spaceship may come to watch at any time.
If someone else's spaceship arrives at the location of the American spaceship's live broadcast, but no Americans are found, and their spaceship does not appear in the American live broadcast, then the joke will be big!
Is it possible to ask a Hollywood special effects company to install a Spear Bureau spaceship on site?
Listening to their noise, the hungover Tony Stark finally regained some consciousness and learned from Jarvis what had just happened.
Unexpectedly, the Spear Bureau has actually built a spaceship that can travel far, which makes Tony's "genius heart" hit again.
"Enough!"
He suddenly spoke, interrupting the discussion of these mediocre scientists.
"Tony, what do you think?" Rhodes asked quickly, trying to control the rhythm and not make everyone unable to get off the stage.
But who is Tony Stark?
He had never taken mediocre scientists seriously before, but now after being numbed by alcohol for many days, he became even more crazy.
"With your plan, let alone going into space, it will explode before reaching the stratosphere!"
The engineers of Boeing and Houston Rockets suddenly turned red, obviously very angry.
"Mr. Stark, do you have a way to build a spaceship that can travel in space?"
Although Tony Stark's pride was hit to pieces again and again, it was not completely destroyed. Losing the quality of being a scientist.
He patted the Ark Reactor on his chest and said in an arrogant tone: "I have solved the problem of the power source. Next, it depends on the strength of the material and the power of the engine."
"But your plan is all bullshit!"
Not to despise anyone, these so-called experts here are really all rubbish in the eyes of Tony Stark!
"You..." Boeing's representative became angry and suddenly sneered: "Then you have a better plan!"
"My plan is to come up with a real Let me take apart the spaceship that can fly into space, and I can guarantee that it will be restored in the shortest time!”
Tony Stark’s arrogance has his own confidence.
But the question is where to find a spaceship that can fly?
If the United States had this thing now, would it still be necessary for them to get together and think of ways to create a replacement?
The quarrel was destined to be fruitless, but the door of the conference room was violently pushed open.
"Mr. President, the Spear Bureau suddenly issued a new announcement saying that a large number of vicious cases against Chinese tourists have broken out in our country. They require us to take immediate measures to protect Chinese tourists, otherwise we will conduct spacecraft weapons experiments in advance. .”
“……”XN
After listening to the presidential secretary's summons, the "Fine Eagles" in the conference room fell into a strange silence.
After a while, the clamor seemed to overturn the soil above our heads.
"What does the Spear Bureau mean by this? Do you want to interfere in the internal affairs of the United States?"
"What do you mean, if we can't solve it, they will conduct weapons experiments in advance? This is asking the United States to Issue a war threat?"
"Damn it! Let them come, America is never afraid of threats!"
...
The "Jingying" in the conference room were obviously using anger to cover up their inner panic. They were afraid that the Divine Spear Bureau was coming.
"Sir, you should move to a safe area further down, take the launch box with you, and be ready to use it." A military general reminded Tom.
