Chapter 217: One of the War Books]
It was really an old business card, and the paper was also very ordinary. Just like two books printed at the same time, the books you often read and the books you put on the bookshelf for decoration and collection can be seen at a glance. This business card is obviously often held in your hands for years and repeatedly flirted. ∽↗
Listening to Adric Killian's words and seeing this business card again, Tony Stark's memory was like an opened box, and the dusty memory surged into his mind in a daze.
I remember that thirteen years ago, a down-and-out man handed him a business card like this. Tony Stark can't remember the specific details, even the man's face. This kind of thing has been experienced too much after Tony Stark took over Stark's business.
Various scientific teams and various scientists desperately squeezed out the time he picked up girls at the banquet he attended, selling them to him with their scientific and technological research, hoping to get his funding.
But how is this possible?
Those men are not beauties, and they do not have the talent and talent that amazed him. Beautiful scientists can still have an unforgettable fate with him, but investing in other people's scientific research? In Tony's mind, it is better to invest in his own drought and flood to ensure profits.
So Tony Stark never remembers these people, let alone these things. If it weren't for the Maya Hansen and the information he collected recently, he might still have thought of someone like Adric Killian back then.
"I remember you had bad legs at the beginning." Tony Stark thought for a long time, but could only recall something that made him feel a little impressed.
"Technology is developing, Tony." Adric Killian smiled and turned his head: "And you are as arrogant as you will never pay attention to this."
"Killian invested in my research Tony, the one I mentioned to you. We successfully developed it and made it available. We found a seller for it." Maya Hansen, who was standing by, held hands and let go left and right, followed by Adric Killian's words.
"Let's wait," Tony made a stop gesture to Maya Hansen, looking back at Adric Killian and said, "Are you still angry about Switzerland?"
"Of course not, how could I be angry with you, Tony? You gave me a great gift, despair!" Adric Killian smiled hard. He wanted to show himself as calm as possible, and he didn't care about it: "You told me back then that I would wait for you on the rooftop, and you would come over and invest in the poor me."
"For the first twenty minutes, I really thought you were back. But for the next hour, I really wanted to take a shortcut to the hotel lobby. Do you understand what I mean? Jump down from the rooftop and then thump!"
Adric Killian said while making an explosion gesture with both hands. "But fortunately I didn't walk the shortcut without a loop. Because when I finally looked at the city from the rooftop, I hesitated. It was there that I felt that deep despair."
"I want to become famous, as famous as you, but no one knows me, nor do anyone remembers me; I want to succeed, at least as successful as you, but I am still worried about where to find another big money. I bring a research fund from him."
"I want to be a big shot, but once again you made me realize that I am still a little person who can be played with by you guys at will."
"How can I die? Why should I die if I have done nothing? When I think of my death, I may only have a piece of small tofu cube and a dry and cold name in the corner of a tabloid. I was even talked about it for a while by only a few people as funny jokes, and then I fell silent, and I felt cold all over!"
"I have to thank you, you made me realize that I have nothing. A person who has nothing and nothing to lose will always give up everything for a certain idea."
"I have always wanted to see you over the years. But I always feel that the time is not right. What I still need to thank you is that you are for closing Stark's weapons research and sales department and then working on Hanmer Military Industry. If this is not the case, my aim will not be able to develop its current scale."
"Don't thank me." Tony Stark turned his finger: "I know you have a close relationship with the military over the years, and recently I have joined S.H.E.I.I am still a little worried about the dividing of your orders between you and Trask. I don't want to know about this, but I still don't plan to accept your invitation, and we still have a calculation to settle."
"I knew you would say that." Adric Killian laughed: "But that's fun, right? For a talented weapon scientist like you, I'm happy to fight a protracted battle to get you to work for me."
"That's a dream. Stark only works for Stark, not to mention before the accounts between us are settled." Tony Stark said expressionlessly.
Maya Hansen and Pepper Potz looked at the two men who were nervously striking, their eyes full of sorrow and worry. After Tony's voice ended, Maya Hansen took a step forward and said to Tony: "Does the account refer to your former bodyguard Mr. Habi?"
Tony glanced at her.
"I've seen the reports you spoke in the hospital, and Miss Potz told me, but that should have been an accident." Maya Hansen said: "We don't mean to you and the people around you, is it Killian?"
Maya Hansen turned his eyes to Adric Killian, as if he wanted to get echo and affirmation from him.
"Of course, but if Mr. Stark is always so uncooperative, I don't mind playing with him." Adric Killian said to Maya Hansen with a smile. After that, Killian tidied up his clothes and then said, "Let's just be here today. Although I want to do something now, the venue is a bit out of place. Tony, we will definitely meet again. You will bow to me and take this business card. I'll wait for you."
Tony still ignored the business card handed over by Adric Killian again, but Adric Killian smiled with a good temper and stuffed the old business card into Tony's pocket, and patted it gently through the pocket: "The world changes so quickly, isn't it? The alien who fell from the sky with a hammer and his brother turned the world upside down. You will never imagine that there will be an incredible enemy in this world in the next moment, and what absurd and crazy things will happen."
