Chapter 355 Marvel Cinematic Universe Branch
Justin Hammer, owns Hammer Industry, is a military weapon supplier and one of the weapons development partners, just like Stark Industry.
In other words, Hammer Industry and Stark Industry are competitors, and Justin Hammer himself also wants to defeat Tony Stark very much, but compared to the super genius Tony Stark, Justin Hammer does not have any qualities of a scientist, he is a pure businessman.
In the comic universe, Justin Hammer is one of the opponents of Iron Man, but the two rarely fight directly face to face, because Justin Hammer has no combat power at all. He is more of a use of his identity, power and financial resources to fund those super criminals, provide them with weapons and equipment, and let others fight against Iron Man, and he is just hiding behind the scenes.
The situation in the movie universe is similar, but compared to Justin in the comics, Mr. Hammer in the movie universe is a little better. From the original film, it can be seen that he rescued Ivan Vanke purely to create a better armor, not to create a disaster. He was also panicked at that time. In other words, Justin Hammer in the movie world just simply wanted to compete in commercial and retain the moral bottom line.
After the tragedy was caused, he did not use his financial resources and power to do anything, but instead served his sentence in prison honestly - with his identity and financial resources, it was not impossible to escape from the crime.
In other words, if it were Justin Hammer in the comic universe, Louis would definitely be too lazy to pay attention to it, but the movie universe would still be acceptable.
"Wow, I really didn't expect that one day I would actually see you... Major, you have to know that when I saw those scenes, I really thought it was a film shot by director Lucas."
Louis did not hide his true identity, not to mention that he should know what he should know, and it would be useless to know what he shouldn't know.
As a military partner, Justin Hammer knew a lot of secret information, including Louis' identity and even imitated some of the weapons used by Louis, but unfortunately he failed to achieve much results.
"Just call me Louis, major and other things are already past." Louis shook hands with Justin Hammer. Louis, in a suit, took Esther and Justin in an evening dress, and looked around.
There were many active-duty officers in military uniforms, including land, sea, air and fourth-class people, and Louis also saw Obadea in the seat next to him.
The bald man with a big beard just glanced at this side curiously, and his eyes stayed on Esther for two seconds before turning to Louis.
Louis happened to look at Obadaia for a second, and after smiling and nodding to greet each other, both sides withdrew their gaze.
"He doesn't know your situation?" Louis thought that even Justin Hammer knew about Esther's situation, and Obadea should know it too?
"Page's message passed back said that he was not a suitable candidate."
At this time, Justin Hammer got up and left the seat, and went to get close to other people who had just arrived, so Louis could ask without hesitation: "Where is Justin Hammer?"
"He is a businessman. As long as he can get benefits, he actually won't ask for too much." Obadaiya's problem is that he wants everything, and he is a little too greedy.
Decades of time have not been wasted. Although Esther only needs to enjoy life, she has repeatedly touched various people, and she has developed these abilities - knowing how to deal with businessmen and politicians, and practicing smart vision, and able to distinguish who can trust and who can cooperate?
After all, as a young and beautiful widow who has lost her husband, and has huge assets, the people who have the idea of her can line up from Los Angeles to New York.
If she were really so stupid, the money would have been cheated of. How could she live as freely as she is now, and even her assets are still steadily doubling?
Really fools, even if there are cheaters reminding them all the time, they cannot stop them from running wildly on the road of death. And Esther is obviously not that kind of fool, or she will only show her stupid and stupid side in front of Louis.
When facing other people, Esther is a shrewd and powerful elite woman with large assets and extensive connections. For example, in Justin Hammer and Obadaia, this is the impression. The only difference is that Justin knows that Esther has special abilities and can keep her appearance alive; Obadaia only knows Esther, who has an old appearance.
Justin had already been chatting with each other, and was struggling to sell his products. Justin worked very hard, but unfortunately, because of Tony, who was cheating, Hammer Industry was always suppressed by Stark Industry.
It is precisely for this reason that Esther and Peggy are relatively easy to invest in Hammer Industry, because they have brought the "unique technology" that Hammer Industry is most urgently needed.
The only thing that gave Justin a headache was that he knew that Esther and Pegg must have hidden more advanced technologies, but how to put these technologies into his hands as research and sale of new technologies for Hammer Industry is a problem.
With these two women's relatively special identities, he could only try every means to please them and dare not use any excessive tricks.
Just like now, Justin keeps complimenting Louis and Esther, and occasionally mentions that Hammer Industry needs new technology in its words.
He knows how to guide the topic correctly. These things are just clicking and not talking endlessly, as they will only make people bored.
If Louis and Esther are willing to provide new technology, then just mention it a little. If he doesn't respond, he will have to continue to think of a solution.
It was in this case that Louis did not notice when Obadaiya came on stage to receive the trophy. In short, this special awards dinner ended in an awkward atmosphere of the winners' absence. Although Obadaiya gave a good reason, everyone here knows what Tony Stark's personality is, so that's all the reason.
Louis knew that Tony was having fun in the casino. He was wondering if he wanted to go there too? Maybe he could meet this big nephew?
But he had just made an appointment with Justin to visit Hammer Industry tomorrow, so he gave up on the idea of going to the casino and returned to his residence with Esther.
The next day, there was nothing special about visiting Hammer Industry. The weapons manufactured by Hammer Industry have generally not yet separated from this era. Only the non-fatal firearms transformed through explosive guns are considered unique cross-age products. As for the technology of exoskeleton armor, Hammer Industry has not obtained any of them.
Even so, it is not impossible to create an exoskeleton armor with the technology currently mastered by Hammer Industry. Louis has seen the plan and design sketch of the exoskeleton armor in Hammer Industry's internal laboratory.
The concept of exoskeleton armor is not a novelty. The military of many countries has this idea, but the technical constraints have prevented this equipment from being born - the most troublesome thing is the source of power.
The key to the birth of Iron Man is that Tony Stark successfully miniaturized the Ark Reactor. The powerful Ark Reactor provided enough power, so Iron Man's armor was so strong.
As for the armor currently planned by Hammer Industry, even if it is successfully made, it cannot be as powerful as the armor of Iron Man, because the power source is improved through the modified battery in the explosive gun, and the output power cannot be compared with the Ark reactor that is a bit like a cheat.
Paige, Esther and Louis actually have stronger battery technology, otherwise they would not be able to create those sets of power armors. As for whether to take them out, they still need to study them.
Leaving Hammer Industry, Louis and Esther, who were sitting in the car, were talking about this.
"Do you want to increase your support for Hammer Industry?" Esther just felt that Stark Group could no longer continue to cooperate, so it would be better to cooperate well with Hammer Industry. At least Justin is a good partner, Hammer Industry also has enough raw material procurement channels and a mature manufacturing team.
“Can consider it.”
Iron Man is about to be born, which means that the war in New York is not far away.
After the New York War, a large number of alien technology had fallen on Earth. If Justin Hammer had not been to picking up soap at that time, Hammer Industry would have taken the opportunity to develop.
Now that he has the support of himself and others, Justin may be able to escape that disaster - as long as Esther and Peggy reveal some new technologies to put the development of the Hammer Group's exoskeleton armor on track, he will not need to find Ivan Vanke, and naturally he will not be cheated into prison by that guy.
Of course, Justin is not the only option. When Tony Stark becomes Iron Man, Peggy and Esther can completely resume their cooperation with Stark Group.
Tony's advantage is that his research ability is extremely strong. He can give him some black technology and he can give you more darker technology products. This advantage is something that Justin does not have.
However, in Louis's view, the two do not seem to conflict. After all, 'eggs cannot be placed in the same basket', and Hammer Industry can be fully trained to become a logistics station or arsenal for the brave team, and the Stark Group is almost impossible to become like that.
"Adjust increase support for Hammer Industry...or simply open a new company."
"New Company? Hunter Industries?"
