I'm the Demon King in Marvel

Chapter 62 Internal and external troubles
America's Internet is boiling again, and this year's waves are getting higher and higher.

"Haha, Tony Stark is done!"

"I believe Howard Stark. Do American scientists still need to plagiarize other people's research results?"

"What a joke! American science will always lead the world!"

"Tsk tsk, the guy upstairs must be living in a dream, right? Why don't you learn about Operation Paperclip first? Albert Einstein is a German!"

"I checked the information. Anton Vanko defected to the United States in 1963 and was deported four years later for espionage. The reason given at the time was that he stole Howard Stark's research results."

"Haha, the thief cries thief, this is very American!"

……

At this point, Jarvis took the initiative to block the rumors on the Internet and only released the information of Anton Vanko and Ivan Vanko.

"Anton Vanko was a Soviet physicist who defected to the United States in 1963, but he was accused of being a spy and expelled four years later."

"His son Ivan Vanko, also a physicist, was sentenced to 15 years in Kopesk prison for reselling weapons-grade plutonium to Pakistan."

"These are the only records that can be found. The father and son have left no other traces in the public eye since then."

Tony Stark, sitting in a vintage car, stared blankly at the light screen.

It turned out that his father really had such a colleague.

Could what Ivan Vanko said be true?
Is my father really a thief?

In addition to the accusations against his father, the nano-armor displayed by Ivan Vanko also dealt a heavy blow to the pride that Tony Stark had developed in the past.

He had enjoyed the title of "genius" for too long and had never felt frustrated among his peers, but yesterday's scene shattered his pride.

His body was poisoned, his mind was traumatized, his company was embroiled in litigation, and his villa was besieged by a military armored division, who forced him to hand over his armor.

Tony Stark is already facing internal and external troubles.

My good friend Rody came uninvited and complained as soon as he entered the door: "Hiding here now will not solve the problem. I have been on the phone with the military all day, convincing them not to drive the tanks in, break through your door, and take away the armor."

"They have lost their patience and just want to get your steel armor. You said that no one would have this technology within 20 years, but yesterday someone took out an armor more advanced than yours in front of the whole world."

"Are you listening?"

Roddy walked closer and saw a pale face. His friend's neck was covered with spider-web-like black lines.

"Hey, what's with all these crosswords around your neck?"

"It's okay." Tony Stark struggled to climb out of the old car, but as soon as he opened the door, he fell down.

"What's wrong with you?" Rody ran over and helped him up.

"Help me to the workbench. Do you see the cigar box?" Tony Stark said fragilely, "It contains the palladium plate."

Roddy helped him to the workbench, opened the cigar box, and took out a palladium plate.

At this time, Tony Stark had removed the reactor from his chest.

Roddy took it and looked at it. The reactor was smoking and the palladium plate inserted inside had been corroded into a piece of tattered scrap metal.

“Should this thing be smoking?”

"The neutrons are damaged and the reactor wall is smoking," Tony Stark said casually.

"You don't have to bear all this alone. The current situation is not something you can handle alone." Rody sighed and patiently persuaded: "The military doesn't care about the patent disputes between you and other companies, but they have been frightened by the armor on Ivan Vanko."

"All the senior military officials have experienced the Cold War. They have witnessed the arms race in those years. We won by chance, but now Russia has steel armor that is many generations more advanced than yours. How can they not be afraid?"

"The military just wants you to hand over the Iron Armor now. They need to immediately organize personnel to research and upgrade it and catch up with Russia. Otherwise, the security of the entire country will be threatened." "They also hope that you can join the research team and provide technical guidance."

"Haha..." Tony Stark sneered: "You want to steal my property and still want me to continue working for them?"

"Tony, America's safety is above all else." Roddy finally advised, "Think about it carefully!"

After Roddy left, Pepper Potts came in and brought the results of the legal department's review of the case files at the Supreme Court.

"Tony, the head of the legal department has evaluated Vanke Industrial's prosecution materials. The other party is very well prepared. We can't find a direction for the debate from the conventional procedures."

Jarvis projected the materials onto the light screen, and Tony Stark saw the design blueprint of the Ark reactor at a glance, with Anton Vanko's name clearly written on it.

Stark Industries also has an identical blueprint, but it has his father Howard Stark's name on it.

"Both Mao and my country are members of the Paris Convention. As long as the patent holder registers a patent in any member state, he or she will enjoy national treatment in all member states."

"Your father applied to the National Copyright Bureau for a patent for the Ark Reactor design in 1967, but Anton Vanko submitted his application to the Russian Federal Copyright Bureau a week earlier than your father."

"Russia signed the Paris Convention on March 1965, 3, and it came into force on July 16. When Anton Vanko applied, Russia was already a member state."

"The other party's application date is earlier than your father's. According to the convention, the patent right of the Ark Reactor belongs to Anton Vanke."

"Haha!" Tony Stark sneered again.

In 1967, Anton Vanko was deported from the United States and immediately sent to a Siberian labor camp. He did not return to Moscow until the collapse of the empire, dragging his sick body. By then, his only son had already been imprisoned.

If Anton Vanke's patent had been approved by the Mao Copyright Office as early as 1967, he would not have lived such a miserable life.

Why should a prisoner digging potatoes in Siberia submit an application to the Copyright Office? They don't even have freedom of communication!
But these reasons cannot be put on the table at all. Russia just wants to insist that they issued a patent certificate to Anton Vanke, and arbitrarily change the public records to identify irrelevant items as the Ark reactor patent.

Then make an old patent certificate and unify the statements made by everyone, so there will be no loopholes at the legal level.

Because the Paris Convention contains provisions for reserving state secrets and commercial secrets, it means that some patents involving state secrets of member states and important corporate commercial secrets do not need to be filed with the Executive Committee.

Even during the public disclosure stage, these technologies that need to be kept confidential will be placed in other categories. For example, when Howard Stark registered the patent, he placed the Ark reactor in the craft sculpture category.

However, after Howard Stark obtained the patent certificate, he hung it on the wall of the Stark Industrial Building for display. Countless people have seen it over the past forty years, and the U.S. Copyright Office could not use the same method even if it wanted to.

This is a messy account that cannot be sorted out!
If it is just an ordinary patent, the member states are too lazy to use national power to make a big deal and will give the right holder "national treatment" in accordance with the provisions of the convention.

For example, in the case of "Wanyan DVD" back then, although they knew that it was their own people who suffered losses, in order to join the WTO and for the interests of more companies, they still did not step forward to help "forge" a patent certificate.

Try switching to ultra-high voltage transmission technology. No one would care about the Paris Convention.

Now it's the Ark Reactor, a new type of energy with huge profits, a military weapon that can influence the international situation. Even if Russia is mentally ill, it has to come out to help.

No matter how powerful the lawyer Tony Stark hired was, he would not be able to find evidence that Big Mao forged the patent certificate.

Damao said that Anton Vanke applied for the patent in 1967, so that was 1967. If you are not happy with it, I can change it to 1966.

In this matter, even if the Federal Supreme Court favors its own people, it can only choose to delay and delay the time of each process. It is impossible to blatantly undermine the judicial process.

"Tony, the situation is not favorable for us." Pepper Potts said in a deep voice.

"There are still two weeks until the trial, right?"

Tony Stark no longer cares about the so-called trial. He doesn't want to be led by his opponent.

"Please get Dr. Ethan back for me, as well as Dr. Stephen Strange from Langone Hospital. I need to perform surgery before the trial."

"Ah?" Pepper Potts looked puzzled.
