Chapter 78 Interview
The super brain is not very good either. Once the thoughts spread, he really can't stop. He even thought that flying may not require a skateboard. Maybe a Falcon's flying equipment is more suitable?
Not necessarily!
Link doesn’t like those wings!
"Okay, this skateboard has a lot of shortcomings. I will improve it, but it needs a studio." Link said: "I will go talk to Stark Industries. Their building in Hell's Kitchen is the fastest. It’s not a big deal if you buy it directly.”
"Okay, I will keep an eye on the medicines." Norman Osborn divided the labor with Link.
…
Link contacted Pepper Potts, and the two met in New York at the United Construction Company.
"Pepper, long time no see." Link hugged each other and separated.
"You've been really surprised recently. You actually acquired the Osborne Group?" Pepper said.
"I'm good at this. I shorted the Hammer Group before, but they had the military behind them and they survived. I can only find the target again." Of course, what Link said was untrue. He didn't want to win. Hammer Group, because that group doesn't have much background.
If it weren't for the entanglement with military interests, it would have been torn apart long ago, and Link said this is just an excuse.
He was a prophet, and since Norman Osborne was willing to cooperate, he would naturally not let the Osborne Group go.
Pepper admires Link very much. After all, Link does have abilities, which is beneficial to Tony Stark.
"What brought you to see me today?" Pepper asked.
"Of the several buildings in Stark Industries, I hope to purchase the one in Hell's Kitchen and make some modifications to its original design." Link said, "I want to use this building as the headquarters of the Osborne Group. After the stock price rises, I also hope to acquire the weapons division of Stark Industries.”
After hearing this, Pepper did not agree immediately, but started to think about it.
The first is the building. There is no problem with this. The four buildings are mainly for the use of new energy. The effect of selling them is the same as renting them. If the Osborne Group purchases one, the value of the subsequent buildings will inevitably increase.
Next is the weapons department, which has been closed but has not yet been processed. At the same time, Stark Industries' focus has shifted to New York.
Now processing is a problem, and with a large number of employees, this is also a headache for her.
"The building can be sold to you!" Pepper then said with a smile: "What about the weapons department?"
"My idea is that after the specific medicine is launched, the stock price will inevitably increase, and Stark Industries will invest in the weapons department." Link said: "I can give you 15 to 20% of the shares."
Pepper nodded and said, "This is a good idea, but now there is a question, whether Tony will agree to it."
Link was stunned and asked, "You are the CEO now!"
"Yes, but I respect Tony. I need to ask him what he thinks. After all, he closed the weapons department. If he uses the weapons department to invest in the Osborne Group, does this go against his wishes?" Link understood what Pepper meant. Yes, she agreed.
However, Stark's ideas must also be respected.
Link nodded and said, "Of course, you can ask him."
"I'm asking now." Pepper took out the phone and called Tony Stark. After getting through, Pepper told the story, and then the other end of the phone was silent, but it didn't last long. Soon Tony Stark made a decision, and he agreed.
After hanging up the phone, Pepper smiled and said: "Tony agreed. He doesn't think you are someone who abuses weapons. After all, weapons still have to be produced by someone."
Link nodded slightly and said in agreement: "It seems that he has figured it out. After all, weapons will not disappear. They have existed since the birth of mankind."
"Then I wish us a happy cooperation!"
"Nice to work with you!" Pepper shook hands with Link, and then the two attended the meeting of the United Construction Company.
The reason why we met here was because the United Construction Company also had a meeting, and this was also convened by Link.
Its purpose is to acquire shares in the United Construction Company in the name of the Osborne Group.
Wilson Fisk is very happy, although Osborne Group Link is the major shareholder, and the current stock price of Osborne Group is extremely low.
However, it has been established for a long time, and it was very powerful before. Now that Link is in charge, I believe it will turn the situation around quickly.
Others don't believe it, but Fisker does!
However, now the Osborne Group has limited funds and can only purchase 5% of the shares. As a result, the total shares held by the Jessica Charitable Foundation are only 13%. .
Fisker does not plan to sell shares again in the future, but is preparing to develop for a period of time. Its stock price will still rise, and then it will look for a group of powerful partners.
Having made money and increased allies, the current situation is the best for him. The only pity is that he is temporarily unable to invest in other projects.
…
Link then went to see the drawings of the building. The appearance was similar to that of Stark Tower. Link was not prepared to change it because he liked the rooftop and flying platform on the top floor best.
And Stark's font will be replaced by Osborn, which needs to be redesigned. At the same time, Link needs a small automatic factory with the top layer downwards, occupying the middle position. He will discuss this directly with Stark.
At the same time, a supercomputer will be placed in the building, and Link is planning to place it underground for cooling and security purposes.
Such as holographic projection, intelligent control, etc., the entire building will have an intelligent security system. Of course, there will not be only one security system. Link does not want SHIELD to enter and exit his territory at will.
The Osborne Group was temporarily out of money, so Link paid for it privately and used it as the headquarters of the Osborne Group.
The Osborne Group will rent him money and wait until funds ease before purchasing. Otherwise, financing will be required. Norman Osborne does not have much funds, which will dilute his shares.
Then the building was divided into upper and lower parts, split in the middle. The upper part was all laboratories, while the lower part was all administrative areas.
This time, the security of the laboratory has been strengthened. This is also agreed by Norman Osborne. He has suffered a lot. This time, all the experimental departments have been put on it to directly strengthen the security force.
Of course, this will also help him manage the Osborne Group without being affected by Link, the chairman.
For now, there are only two of them on the board of directors, so some things can be settled with just one phone call, but what if there are more directors in the future?
