"Hello there!"

Tony nodded casually.

"Hello, Mr. Stark!"

Brooklyn Decker was still very sensible. She couldn't possibly think that now that she was with Bai Ye, she could be so careless with Tony, so she greeted Tony with a humble look.

Bai Ye is awesome, but it’s not her who is awesome.

"You are so lucky, you have discovered a beauty like Miss Brooklyn Decker!"

Tony laughed.

What they talked about was their romantic affairs. As for the beauties themselves, they were not taken seriously. Because people of Bai Ye and Tony's status had seen too many beauties, and rare things were valuable. Naturally, too many things would become worthless.

"Because I have a pair of eyes that are good at discovering beauty."

Bai Ye smiled softly.

Tony took a sip of the whiskey the bartender brought and said, "So why did you ask me out tonight? Are you inviting me to another im party?"

Brooklyn Decker's expression suddenly changed drastically.

He grabbed Bai Ye's sleeve and looked at her with pitiful eyes.

It was a good thing to hook up with Bai Ye, the son of a wealthy family, but she didn't want to join the im party between Tony and Bai Ye, because that meant that she would become a useless plaything. At most, she would play with Bai Ye for three or two days and then be abandoned. This was not the result she wanted.

"Don't listen to his nonsense. I'm a clean person. Why would I attend an im party?"

Bai Ye held Brooklyn Decker's hand and gave her a reassuring look.

Brooklyn Decker finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, this playboy is not such a conscienceless person, otherwise if Bai Ye and Tony really wanted to do something, she, as a model, would have little power to refuse.

Well, of course she could refuse, but the consequences of refusing would be hard for her to bear - she would not have many jobs in the future and would have to go back to her hometown to farm.

"Yes, yes, I was just kidding."

Tony smiled strangely and irresponsibly.

But Brooklyn Decker was willing to throw herself into Bai Ye's arms, so of course she knew who Bai Ye was. Tony's skill of breaking up the relationship was completely useless. This girl was very sensible. How could a rich man's son be innocent?

A domineering president falling in love with me can only be a plot in novels. A real domineering president can only fall in love with you at most.

"Okay, let's get down to business." Bai Ye said, "I asked you out to tell you that I recently founded a new company called Venus Energy."

"that's it?"

Tony looked at Bai Ye with a confused look on his face.

"That's it." Bai Ye also picked up the wine brought by the bartender, took a sip, and said, "But I suggest you investigate the information of Anthony Vanco first."

"Playing charades with me, huh?"

Tony looked at Bai Ye suspiciously, but still took out his cell phone and looked up Anthony Vanko's information.

"There are many people named Anthony Vanco. Whose information are you asking me to find?"

"The one you are closest to."

"Closest to me? What does this have to do with me? I don't know anyone named Anthony Vanco."

"If you don't know me now, you will know me soon."

Tony searched and actually found the information of Anthony Vanco, who was closest to him.

"He's actually a veteran employee of Stark Group? But he was fired... Wait!"

Tony had a big smile on his face at first, but soon he couldn't smile anymore because he found out that the technology of the Ark reactor didn't seem to be developed independently by his father Howard Stark, but was developed in collaboration with a man named Anthony Vanco.

He frowned.

"So Bai Ye, what do you want to tell me?"

"Last time I asked you to buy the Ark reactor, but you refused to sell it to me. We have such a good brotherly relationship, but you still want to be on guard against me. To be honest, you made me very sad!" Bai Ye sighed, "I'm not stealing your technology. I'm just using some of your finished products to develop my mecha."

"I was afraid that the Ark reactor would be abused..." Tony wanted to explain, but after thinking for a while, he decided to give up. He couldn't explain it clearly, so he just said, "Besides, you Osborn are so powerful, why do you need my things?"

"Okay, then I don't want your stuff anymore." Bai Ye laughed and said, "So I collected some information about the Ark Reactor. Unexpectedly, I found a surprising piece of information. The Ark Reactor is not monopolized by your Stark family. There is also a Vanke family that has mastered the technology. So I won over this family to my Venus Energy. They are working for me now. I called you out to tell you this, so that when you see the Ark Reactor made by Venus Energy in the future, you won't say that I stole your technology and made it impossible for us brothers to be together."

Chapter 139 I have never seen such a shameless person

Holding the wine glass, Tony's expression changed.

He was just thinking about preventing the Ark Reactor technology from spreading and controlling the risks, but Bai Ye turned around and gave him a surprise.

Tony took a sip of wine and slowed down: "Wanke family's Ark reactor technology, couldn't it be stolen?"

"What a coincidence!" Bai Ye smiled and said, "The people of the Vanke family also said that your father Howard Stark was a liar and a thief. The coincidence is that all the records of the events back then were completely deleted. Apart from finding some circumstantial evidence, no one can know the real truth."

Tony was silent.

Bai Ye’s words were very clear. The person who could erase all these things could not be the Vanke family who had failed in the struggle, but only his father Howard Stark.

And a flawless person would not go to great lengths to delete stories about a liar and a thief for no apparent reason.

This made Tony at a loss for words. He had known for a long time that his father was not a good person, but he never expected that he would do such a thing. Anyway, he himself would not do such a thing as stealing other people's invention patents.

Honestly speaking, it was clearly Howard Stark who did something unfair in the matter of the Ark Reactor. No matter what Anthony Vanco wanted to do with the Ark Reactor, since he made a great contribution to the invention of the Ark Reactor, he should get the reward he deserves, instead of being labeled a spy by Howard Stark and directly driven back to Polar Bear, while taking all the benefits of the Ark Reactor - considering that Anthony Vanco had fully mastered the technology of the Ark Reactor, his contribution in this regard could not be low.

"Okay, let's not talk about these old stories. Your father Howard Stark is not a good guy, and it is also recognized by the older generation. He has played with the wives of many of his old friends for many years, causing brothers to turn against each other... and the old man in my family is also recognized as the most cold-blooded and cruel capitalist in America. He has killed countless competitors. He is not a good person. In this regard, we will only talk about the eldest brother and not the second brother." Bai Ye smiled, raised his glass and clinked it with Tony, and said: "Now the Vanke family is working for me, so you don't have to worry about someone wearing steel armor to hunt you down and avenge the family. They are now working hard to earn special drugs to treat systemic organ failure and have no time to care about you."

"well--!"

Tony sighed. He felt tired when talking about his father. He was even willing to play with his old friend's wife. He was worse than a beast. Unlike him, even though he went too far in playing with women, he never played with his friend's wives.

——Well, actually the main reason is that Howard Stark has high emotional intelligence and he has many good friends, but Tony has low emotional intelligence. The only person who can be called his friend in the whole America seems to be Colonel Rhodes, who is not married yet, and another whore friend, Bai Ye, is also not married. So, even if he wants to learn the tricks of his father, he has no chance at all.

"And you are planning to shift Stark Group from military industry to energy industry, which is also a big problem." Bai Ye took a sip of wine and reminded: "The technology of the Ark Reactor is too great. If you can promote this new energy in a short period of time, those oil energy giants may go bankrupt immediately."

Kissinger, an American strategist and former Secretary of State, once said, “Whoever controls oil controls all nations; whoever controls food controls humanity; whoever controls currency controls the global economy.”

You can imagine the importance of oil.

Rockefeller became the richest man in America and the world's leading energy giant because he founded Standard Oil.

Oil is the most important strategic material for countries around the world, the most important non-renewable energy source, and is known as the "blood of industry."

Relying on its comprehensive military, economic and political strength, the United States controls every link of the global oil supply and has established a petrodollar hegemony system with the Middle East as its fulcrum, multinational corporations as its carrier, and global military bases as its escort.

The emergence of the Ark reactor will, to a large extent, subvert the existing oil energy structure.

"So if you think about it, you will know that the energy giant will not let go of the Stark Group issue in the future."

"Do you think I'm a fool?" Tony rolled his eyes and said, "Of course I won't think of monopolizing the world's commercial energy in one go. Things will definitely be done slowly. I plan to acquire a few energy companies first to set an example for the world. The oil and energy giants have established energy standards over the years. It is not a simple matter to overturn these standards and establish new rules. It means the renewal of the tens of trillions of dollars of industrial chain, which is by no means overnight."

"Even so, you will face unprecedented pressure." Bai Ye smiled and said, "Tony, this is what I think. Why don't we form an alliance and jointly promote the new energy standard of the Ark Reactor?"

"Alliance?" Tony frowned. "Aren't you afraid of being in trouble with the Ministry of Justice and being ruled to be a monopoly? In fact, with you and the Vanke family around, although I will probably make a lot less money, it will also save me and the Stark Group one less problem, that is, we don't have to worry about being officially split up."

"We don't run a super energy company together, but we can hold shares in each other." Bai Ye shrugged and said, "In fact, the stock price of your Stark Group has been sluggish recently. I have secretly acquired a lot of shares. I am almost able to hold a seat on the board of directors. I am also contacting some small shareholders and preparing to acquire more shares. You can also buy some shares of the Osborne Group. We will cross-hold shares and share interests. When we face pressure in the future, we can share the burden. Life should be much better."

"Makes sense."

Tony thought about it. Bai Ye could hold shares in Stark Group, and he could also hold shares in Osborn. They could be considered a community of interests. But there was still a problem:

"Bai Ye, you've got a great bargain. Stark Group's stock price has plummeted to such a low point, and it's been cut in half. But your Osborn's stock price hasn't dropped much. If I were to exchange interests with you, I'd be at a huge loss, okay?"

"Oh, don't worry about these details!" Bai Ye coughed and said, "You have so much money, why do you care about this little money? I'm just a second-generation rich man who lives a life of idleness and waiting to die. I haven't made much money in these years, but you are different, Tony. Not to mention the shares of Stark Group, just your personal invention patents, you have received so much money that your hands are cramped, right? I feel that half of the net profit of Stark Group in these years should fall into your personal pocket, because as long as the weapons are developed by you, most of the patents belong to you personally."

"Bullshit, how can there be so much?" Tony said, "I just made a little bit of money."

Tony's personal income must be considerable, which is also the basis for his plan to completely control the Stark Group.

The income of Stark Group and Tony's personal income are two different things. The annual profits of many super giants may not be as much as what Tony earns personally.

This is the privilege of being the world's smartest and richest person. Making money is so easy. You can just spend a few days to come up with an invention, and the patent may be worth hundreds of millions of dollars.

"Okay, it's settled. You turn a blind eye to my secret acquisition of shares in the Stark Group. In exchange, I will allow you to acquire shares in the Osborn Group." Bai Ye said shamelessly.

Tony glared at Bai Ye.

He has never seen such a shameless person!

These days, he directed the Stark Family Foundation to secretly acquire shares of the Stark Group and encountered several opponents. I think one of them is the bastard in front of him.

"Anything else? If not, I'm going to pick up some girls." Tony took a sip of wine and his eyes darted around the banquet: "There are quite a few beauties here tonight."

"There's one more thing." Bai Ye thought while drinking, and said, "I've been thinking that it's too easy for us to make money with something like the Ark Reactor. In addition to snatching the industries of the current oil and energy giants, is it actually a better choice to develop new industries?"

"Oh?" Tony looked at Bai Ye in surprise: "Do you have any ideas in this regard? I haven't even thought about this!"

According to Tony's idea, the main thing is to first acquire several large power companies and use the Ark Reactor to supply electricity. The energy and power released by the Ark Reactor will be enough for the Stark Group to make a fortune.

As for the new industry…it’s not a matter of just one sentence, there are so many things to consider.

"Well, I've thought about it for a long time. Why don't we set up a joint venture to make new energy vehicles?"

Bai Ye smiled and said:

"New energy vehicles are an inevitable trend in the future! Because the think tanks of major countries can see that the world's energy consumption is increasing, and the reserves of fossil fuels are decreasing. New energy has become an effective way to solve the energy crisis. If we two make new energy vehicles, we will definitely get support from major countries. In fact, various countries have already begun to subsidize new energy vehicles, but no super giant has stepped in yet."

"Moreover, cars are a major source of environmental pollution. In the context of global warming and severe air pollution, governments around the world have proposed emission reduction targets. New energy vehicles can achieve zero emissions, which is beneficial to improving the environment."

"What's even better is that we can make money from new energy vehicles without damaging the interests of the oil energy giants. At most, we can damage the interests of some automotive capital. Compared with energy capital, automotive capital is much easier to control. Are we still afraid of these things?"

Tony really wanted to complain. Of course, automobile capital is easy to control because America has a place in the automobile industry, but it does not have much advantage, or it once had a peak but has now declined. In today's world, German and Japanese cars seem to be stronger. America will of course support Bai Ye and Tony to establish new energy vehicles and grab the automobile market that originally belonged to Germany and Japan. The world's strongest energy giant is America, and America certainly does not want anyone to grab this piece of cake.

But after Tony thought about it, he felt that Bai Ye was truly a genius, and the Ark reactor and new energy vehicles were a perfect match.

Because in addition to the fact that the Ark Reactor is a real new energy source that can be used to make new energy vehicles, it is also in line with the trend of the times.

The automobile industry is actually very large, and the industrial chain involved supports about 7000 million automobile workers worldwide. The automobile capital may not be strong enough, but it is not something that can be messed with casually.

But now all countries are promoting the development of new energy vehicles.

On the one hand, new energy vehicles have reduced the obstacles from the traditional automobile industry. On the other hand, governments have provided large capital, large industries and large power to allow people to take advantage of this opportunity.

For heavy industries like automobiles, without the support of super power and super capital to build infrastructure, it is not impossible for Tony and Bai Ye to achieve results with the Ark Reactor, but it is too difficult. They can't make much money even if they work hard, so they can only treat it as charity.

Just like what Bai Ye knows about the future, without the two super giants Huamei to make new energy vehicles and establish new energy vehicle standards, how can new energy vehicles develop in full swing? For example, Japan chose hydrogen energy in the automotive field. Is its choice definitely wrong? No, the reason why Huamei did not go the hydrogen energy route is that the two countries found that Japan monopolized 83% of the world's hydrogen energy patents. If Huamei also chose this field, it would only work for Japan. The world's first and second, in a tens of trillions of dollars industrial chain market, work for the third. Do you think you are humorous?

So Huamei said that new energy vehicles are the right way to go. If you want to play, we can play together. If you don’t want to play, that’s fine. China, the United States, and Europe have a combined population of more than 20 billion, accounting for more than 60% of the world’s GDP. You are not allowed to enter this market. Even if you can make a success of your Japanese hydrogen energy vehicle, who can you sell it to? African friends or Indians?

There is no absolute right or wrong in the technology route. In the final analysis, it is the absolute strength that matters. It is not that Japan always chooses the wrong technology tree, but that Japan's absolute strength is not good enough and it is not qualified to participate in the formulation of rules. In layman's terms, no matter how good a student is, he cannot beat the teacher who grades the papers. That's the truth.

Now Huamei is already promoting the development of new energy vehicles. Tony and Bai Ye, with the Ark reactor, are producing new energy vehicles. For other new energy vehicle manufacturers, it is basically a dimensionality reduction attack. They can easily pin others to the ground, and the green Franklin will flow into their pockets.

"Bai Ye, your idea is very good, but I need to think about it carefully and let my think tank study it before making a decision." Tony said.

"OK, I'm not in a hurry." Bai Ye spread his hands and said, "Anyway, it's not me who caused the company's stock price to plummet."

"You boy!"

Tony pointed at Bai Ye and was so angry that he wanted to hit someone.

"Okay, now that I've finished talking, I should go. The night is short and I don't have time to talk nonsense with you any more."

Bai Ye smiled lightly, ignored Tony, put his arm around Brooklyn Decker's slender waist, and walked out of the banquet hall.

Bai Ye judged that it was impossible for him to fail in new energy vehicles based on his experience in his previous life. However, Tesla, which had a market value of over one trillion US dollars in his original world, was still a small fry in this parallel universe Marvel world which was highly similar to the original world. Even Elon Musk was only worth 10 billion US dollars. As long as Bai Ye and Tony took action, they could beat this guy up.

"Hmm...it seems like Tony and I could also buy Tesla now and let Elon Musk work for us."

Bai Ye thought.

This is not impossible. Even if Musk is rich, he is just new money. When he became the richest man, he still said that he might be assassinated all day long because he had no foundation. Bai Ye and Tony belonged to old money. Who dared to assassinate them casually? The world's strongest military and medical giants, or future energy giants, only the two of them could assassinate others! With the support of Bai Ye and Tony, Musk was in a good position. At least his safety was greatly guaranteed. Bai Ye and Tony acquired Tesla, a new energy vehicle company with a good skeleton, which saved a lot of time and trouble. They also accepted Elon Musk, a guy with good business talent, as a henchman, which was not a loss.

"OK."

Bai Ye snapped his fingers and said to himself:

"It's a happy decision to accept Tesla and Elon Musk."

what?

Is it possible that Musk doesn't want to sell Tesla or be someone else's lackey?

Learn about dump trucks.

When you don't want to be decent, we can only help you to be decent.

A new money worth $10 billion has no right to say "no" to Bai Ye and Tony.

Sitting in the car, Bai Ye looked at Brooklyn Decker, who was behaving very well. He was very satisfied with the girl who only wore eyes but not ears or a mouth. He said:
