Obada's death was like a meteor streaking across the night sky. Tianlai Novel | 2

Except for those who noticed it and were surprised, it didn't cause much confusion.

According to external reports, Obadie suffered a heart attack because he was so happy when he saw Tony return.

As for the inside story, whether Obadiah framed him, and whether the terrorists had specially arranged it, Tony no longer intends to pursue it.

At the funeral, it rained heavily.

Tony was wearing a black suit and a white flower on his chest, with tears glistening in his eyes.

Next to him, Wu Ming stood with him, listening to the pastor's prayers, and an assistant held an umbrella for the two of them.

During the entire funeral, there were not many people to see Obadiah off, and none of his immediate family members were present.

This is not to say that people are just being lazy, but that none of Obadiah's children have followed the path of business tycoons. Most of them are prodigal sons who live in a dream.

Except for people with good connections, many people did not receive the invitation. Even Tony and Wu Ming were able to come because they were rich and could eat up the stocks left by Obaday.

"Mr. Tony, Mr. Wu Ming, can we go over there and talk?" A young man with oily hair and pink face walked up and whispered.

Wu Ming and Tony looked at each other, took the umbrella from the assistant, and came to the garden area in the cemetery.

"Jack, just tell me what you have to say." Tony said casually, stopping the bodyguard from following him.

Jack is the son of Obadiah, a rich second generation who likes racing, taking drugs, and playing with women.

He looked very reserved in front of Tony, with a flattering smile on his face, and said: "Mr. Tony, I don't know if there is any proposal within the company to recover the shares. My father left 24% of the shares. If the price is right,

If so, we are willing to take action."

Stark Industries has a market value of more than 3 trillion, and 24% of the shares are not a small number.

Tony was silent for a moment. There was a call within the company to withdraw the stock, but the company did not have that much money.

"During this period, the company's market value has shrunk slightly, but to acquire these 24% of the shares, we still need 800 billion U.S. dollars. I don't have that much money now, so why not share these shares equally between the two of us?

Each person ate 12%, what do you think?" Tony couldn't eat all of it himself, so he focused on Wu Ming.

Wu Ming's face was full of smiles. He did not refuse or agree, but smiled and said: "Tony, you hold 43% of the shares. If you take another 12%, you will have absolute control, right?"

"Haha..." Tony smiled and said nothing, acquiescing to this statement.

After all, as the company's largest shareholder, Tony inherited most of the rights to Stark Industries from his father.

If another 12% of the shares are repurchased this time, Stark Industries will be as stable as a mountain, and there will be no second voice in the shareholders' meeting.

Whether or not the shares can be repurchased is crucial to Tony, and it is also a golden opportunity for the Stark family.

On the other hand, for Wu Ming, this decision is a bit risky, because Tony will have no one to check and balance him in the future.

With absolute controlling rights, once Tony makes up his mind to do something, no one can oppose him.

In this way, Stark Industries may reach its peak, or it may go to hell. The power of no one to check and balance is very scary.

"You owe me another favor!" After thinking for a moment, Wu Ming slowly spoke and expressed his attitude.

Tony shrugged, stretched his left hand out of the umbrella, caught a few drops of rainwater, and said with a smile: "I don't care, I owe you enough favors, what can I do if I have one more!"

While talking and laughing, the 800 billion share recovery was reached between the two giants.

At this point, Tony will own 55% of Stark Industries, reaching the point of absolute control.

Wu Ming's shares increased dramatically, from 24% to 36%, becoming the second shareholder after Tony.

Fair declaration, share changes, payment of funds.

Within a week, all the procedures were completed, and Tony also held a press conference after his return.

"I announce that Stark Industries will split up its weapons research and development department with immediate effect and bid farewell to the arms market completely within one year!" At the press conference, Tony said his slogan to the world.

Just like what was shown in the movie, Tony's words caused an uproar.

It's just that this time, Tony has become more powerful. No one in the company can question him, and no one can oppose him.

Under the stage, countless reporters looked excited and pressed forward desperately.

Among them, a reporter from the Daily Mail handed over the microphone first and asked loudly: "Mr. Tony, Stark Industries started with arms. What problem made you give up the arms field?

Stark Industries?"

"I have not given up on Stark Industries, I have only given up on the field of arms. There is no shortage of wars in this world. I do not want to be an accomplice of war, nor do I want more innocent people to die in the weapons manufactured by Stark Industries.

In terms of weapons, this is the reason why I gave up." Tony's answer did not satisfy the reporter.

A reporter from the New York Times was the second to ask questions and said, "Mr. Tony, if Stark Industries gives up its strength in the field of arms, does that mean it is heading for decline?"

"No, Stark Industries is a giant, a giant that cannot be defeated. After giving up the arms field, we will enter new energy, aerospace, steel, and even the network industry. I firmly believe that such a change is necessary and in line with Stark Industries.

It is conducive to the diversification of the company."

Tony didn't like to entertain reporters. When he said this, he loudly said: "The future exhibition will be held under the witness of everyone. I declare that the press conference is over!"

"Mr. Tony, what happened in those days when you were missing? Was it during those days that you had the idea of ​​giving up the arms field?"

"Mr. Tony, Stark Industries and the Ministry of Defense have a lot of cooperation every year. If you give up the arms field, will you still develop weapons for the military?"

The reporters were chasing after me with such enthusiasm that it was unimaginable.

Tony struggled to get out of the crowd and boarded a commercial Mercedes-Benz under the escort of countless bodyguards.

In the car, Wu Mingzheng and Tony's secretary Xiaojiao chatted about the trivial matters of Tony's life.

Seeing Tony getting into the car, Wu Mingcai turned around and said: "While you were holding the press conference, four shareholders called me and asked if you were crazy. Such a big matter was dealt with without discussing it.

Just spread it out!"

"Discussion, what else are we discussing?"

Tony didn't care about those shareholders of the company and said with a smile: "The two of us are the bosses of the company. The combined shares of those people are just a fraction of ours. No matter what they do."

Tony, who has absolute controlling rights, controls the company to the point where he keeps his promises.

Coupled with the support of Wu Ming, the second shareholder, he no longer had to care about what those small shareholders were saying.

Seeing Tony's indifferent look, Wu Ming nodded in approval and took out a piece of information: "This is what you asked me to investigate. The terrorist organization that captured you has had contact with Obadiah before. No

A third party intervenes.”

Tony took the file but didn't read it himself.

Obadiah was already dead, and he sought confirmation just to be on the safe side, fearing that others besides Obadiah would intervene.

Now it seems that this incident was planned by Obadiah, and no other forces were involved, so Tony can feel relieved.

"After investigation, I found out that the group of people who captured you were a branch of Al Qaeda and numbered hundreds of people. I'm curious, how did you escape and eliminate those people?"

Tony has been back for a week, and during this period, he has never mentioned his steel armor.

Wu Ming now had reason to believe that Tony was guarding him, so he planned to see how wary Tony was of him.

If Tony tells the truth, it means Tony still trusts him, but his trust is reserved.

On the other hand, if Tony hesitates and wants to hide the matter when asked, it means that everyone is about to part ways.

"You don't know, it was a complete accident that I escaped." Tony said with a smile, completely unaware that Wu Ming's eyes were a little colder.

It has been ten years since I met Tony, and we have been friends for ten years.

Unexpectedly, after ten years of friendship, Tony still didn't really trust him. It seemed that some things really couldn't be forced.

"Come, let me show you something good."

Tony didn't notice Wu Ming's expression, but secretly took out his mobile phone from his pocket.

He reached out and clicked twice on his phone, and a picture of a steel armor was projected in front of their eyes.

Wu Ming was no stranger to steel armor, but he did not pretend to be a prophet, but pretended to be confused and asked: "What is this?"

Tony waved his arms excitedly and explained excitedly: "This is my little toy. Didn't you ask, how did I escape? Look at this, I understand that this suit of armor, after wearing it, I can fight

An armored corps. However, this is the Mark 2 type. The first set of armor is too rough and damages my demeanor. I cannot show that to others."

Tony's steel armor is updated very quickly, and some of it is completely the product of his imagination.

Little Pepper drove the car and said without looking back: "Tony didn't sleep for three days and three nights in order to rush to make this suit of armor. He originally wanted to wear the Mark 1 to surprise you, but the Mark 1

Too ugly, he is a person who pursues perfection. By the way, Tony asked me to keep it a secret from you, he wanted to give you a surprise, just like a child showing off his toys!"

After hearing what the two said, Wu Ming finally understood why Tony wanted to hide it.

A playboy who pursues perfection will definitely not want to appear in a cave wearing a crude armor.

At first, Wu Ming thought Stark was already suspicious of him.

Thinking about it now, it was not that Stark noticed something, but that the appearance of the Mark 1 was detrimental to his image. No, as soon as the Mark 2 armor came out, Tony couldn't wait to show it off, and the word "pride" was missing.

It's written on the face.

"Let me tell you, after ten years of friendship, even a stone would be warmed up, let alone a sweet-tempered person like Tony. It seems that I have wrongly blamed this guy. Before there was no sharp conflict, this guy should be

On my side." Knowing that Tony didn't mean to hide it, Wu Ming also breathed a sigh of relief.

After all, in his ten years at Marvel, his investment in Tony was the largest, and he basically had no reservations.
