Marvel World New Magneto

As the temperature dropped and the rain fell again, a policeman on a motorcycle cleared the way for the hearse, followed by a long string of convoys.

This is the last scene of Norman Osborne, the former president of Osborne Industries. This gentleman disappeared in the hijacking incident that caused a sensation in the United States some time ago. Later, the police verified that he had indeed appeared on the building that was hit. And found the video of him entering the building and the clothes he changed. Although he didn't understand why he changed clothes there, through scientific tests, the police confirmed that the hair on those clothes belonged to Mr. Osborne. In addition, more powerful evidence emerged On the 44th floor, where a close examination of the medical examiner found a small pool of blood under the plane, which was also confirmed to be from Norman's body.Now that the evidence is conclusive, after some procedures, the former president was finally able to rest in peace.After the memorial service in the church today, relatives and friends went to the cemetery to hold the burial ceremony for him.

"Norman is a good man. Although he looks a little harsh on the outside, his friends know that he has a naive and lovely side. I still remember..." A middle-aged man in black stood in front of the tombstone and stood in silence. The crowd remembers the past bits and pieces, and occasionally talks about interesting things that happened, and people will smile knowingly.Harry stood beside him silently with a serious expression on his face. Suddenly losing his father, he really couldn't laugh. He seemed to have grown up a few years overnight, and he no longer had the youthful look of the past.

"Harry is very poor, isn't he?" Mary Jane quietly approached Eric in a dignified black dress. She left Harry's side at some point, and she was always by his side.

"Are you worried about him?" Eric asked back. He didn't have to be too polite with Mary Jane. In private contact, this girl was not as harmless as she appeared on the surface.Ever since she passed Norman's birthday reception, she had lost her original awe, and her words became less and less polite.

Now she does too.Hearing the rhetorical question, he didn't even blink his eyelids, and directly blocked it back.

"I'm worried about you." She said so, and Eric raised his eyebrows and didn't answer.

"I'm worried you'll let Harry down." Mary Jane finally said what she wanted. She was referring to the tripartite agreement Norman reached with Exploration Aerospace and Eric. Eric provided the magnetic levitation metal, Osborn and The Exploration and Space News was supported by funds and influence, but it was only a verbal agreement, and there was not much constraint. Now that Norman is gone, the attitude of Exploration and Space is unclear.If Eric tears up the consensus reached in the past, Osborne Industries, which has been hit hard, can only wait for bankruptcy and liquidation.

"Harry never wants the company his father worked hard to go bankrupt, and I don't want Harry to be sad. Please help him if you can." Mary Jane said seriously.

Eric nodded, but did not answer until the ceremony was over.Harry came over with an apologetic face after dealing with the guests.

"I've kept you waiting." Harry said apologetically. Of course Eric would not blame him for it. At his invitation, Eric got into Harry's car, and the driver took them back to Osborne's house. mansion.

They sat down in the living room, and the butler brought the servants to bring drinks, and then they left.He closed the living room door with his own hands.Now there are only three Harry left in this place.

Harry looked at Mary Jane, and thanked his girlfriend for the rescue of the mutant students in the crisis that day.After getting closer to the relationship, we started to get down to business.

"Recently, the company's situation is not very good. The board of directors has not been held due to shareholder inheritance issues. Now I am in charge of the company. Although the company is somewhat difficult, in view of my father's last wish, I will continue to fulfill the promise I made to Xavier College. Donation matters." Harry said as he took out a check that had been prepared in advance, and handed it to Eric with both hands.

This amount is enough to pay Osborn's arrears of material fees and the first scheduled funding. Eric glanced at it and put it down. Li felt a little uneasy. This was already the largest amount of liquidity he could mobilize. If this didn't impress the man on the other side, Osborne Industries would be one step closer to ending.

He couldn't help but glanced at Eric, secretly wondering what he was thinking, and when Eric put down the check and pushed the piece of paper back, his blood immediately turned cold.With every inch the paper got closer to him, Harry's face turned paler, and by the time Eric's fingers left the table, his skin had completely lost its color.

"Am I the one who dissatisfied you?" Harry asked bitterly, as if he had been poured a large cup of original coffee, which was so thick that he couldn't melt it from his stomach to his mouth.

Eric looked at the young man on the opposite side. Today he has been beaten enough, but he needs to put a little more pressure on him.

"I think you need it more," Eric said nonchalantly, as if hinting at Harry's future.

Harry shook his head blankly: "Without your support, what is the use of it? The Ministry of National Defense has purchased Stark's Jericho missiles and a series of munitions, but we can't even share the research and development costs. Magnetic metals have already It is our last hope."

Mary Jane also looked over. She looked at Eric eagerly, hoping that he could help a bunch of desperate boyfriends.

Eric ignored her, not even interested in taking a look.

"Even with my help, can Osborn be brought back to life?" Eric shook his head coldly. "With all due respect, Osborne is a lame giant. It is not its fault that he has tilted too much in the arms industry. The biggest drawback is the unrestrained investment completely to meet the needs of the military. The current situation is as early as ten years ago. The past is doomed. Once the defense procurement is lost, the situation today will appear. This day was staged in advance because of Norman’s death. The crisis has been planted, and this day will come sooner or later. Otherwise, why should shareholders rush to take action when it is good? It is in their best interest to sell at a price.”

Harry's face darkened. During this period of time, he had a preliminary understanding of Osborne's problems. The grand career that his father said was not as indestructible as he described for himself. On the contrary, what he took over was a building that was about to collapse. The building, this building is more dangerous than the one hit by the airliner, at least there are mutants there who take the initiative to save it, but he looks around blankly.Maybe everyone can see themselves standing alone on the reef that is about to be swallowed by the high tide, but no one is willing to lend a helping hand to pull himself back to the shore from that dangerous place.

He once thought about giving up. He could get rid of debts through bankruptcy, live his own life, or wait for the dust to settle and make a comeback to build a big company like his father created Osborne. , he can no longer tolerate such selfish thoughts.

From the current point of view, relying on Eric's help may be able to support it, but in the long run, corporate restructuring according to Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Reform Law is the most effective way to get rid of the disadvantages. He can continue to operate and own all assets, and at the same time work hard Come up with a plan of reorganization to pay off debts to creditors.

But whether it is short-term emergency or long-term planning, he has to rely on Eric.The flaws in the human body strengthening formula of the company's two cutting-edge products are too great. The strong poisonous effect can make any reasonable person go away in an instant. Only the hang glider that can carry people to fly can convince the military to purchase, not to mention that Osborne is already gliding There is too much investment in the wing, and only magnetic levitation metal can make it perform well enough to convince the military to purchase it.

But why did Eric help himself?

Why?

At this moment, Harry was extremely envious of those mutants of the same age. In front of them, the academy mentor was as kind as an angel, generously opening a warehouse full of endless treasures to them, but in front of him, he was so stingy that he was so stingy. A word.

Despair spread wildly in his heart, and just when Harry's last desire was about to be turned into ashes, the angel finally uttered the voice of salvation.

"I can help you." Eric leaned on the sofa and looked over, his eyes seemed to be on fire. "But you have to do as I tell you."

Harry thought he'd hesitate, but he didn't, he met Eric's eyes and said yes.

The door of the living room opened, and the butler stood quietly in front of the door, waiting for the young master's call. He has served the family for many years, grew up with Norman, watched Harry's birth, and nothing has changed until now. He can be separated from the Osborne family.When Harry came out, he looked over calmly. Harry's expression had regained his composure, so he bowed far away.

Nodding to the loyal old man, Harry asked his girlfriend to see him off, and went into the study to find the documents. This was not intentional neglect, but now that he and Eric were tightly bound together, the form was not important anymore. .

"I didn't expect you to do this." Eric came outside and was about to leave. Mary Jane stopped him angrily. Her feelings for Harry were indeed complicated, but she didn't want him to be sad from the bottom of her heart.Harry is a nice guy.

"My partner's surname is still Osborne." Eric said lightly. He has nothing to be ashamed of. Just like in the Norman era, Harry still holds the power of the company. If he is willing to do as agreed, the status Even more stable than the previous generation, the agreement reached with the old Osborne is still valid, but his position will change from a supplier to a major shareholder.

Maybe the company that Norman created never really belonged to the Osborne family, they were just agents.

"Is Osborne Industries still surnamed Osborne?" Mary Jane continued to ask, unable to see through this point.

"You can call it the 'post-Osborne' era." Eric looked back, boarded the stopped car, and gradually faded away in the girl's eyes.

Regardless of what others think, the blank economic map has been filled in again. (to be continued~^~)
