Homelander Comics

Bai Ye's mecha took off and landed on the rooftop of a building next to the Osborne Building. He smiled and said:

"Why, you're coming over to support us, Osborn?"

"Yeah." Eddie greeted with a smile and said, "I also saw the news that something happened to you Osborn, so I wanted to come and see you. In case you need help, can't I help you?"

"Although you didn't help much, I still appreciate the kindness." Bai Ye laughed, patted his shoulder, and said, "By the way, how was your fun with Khloe Kardashian and the others? Did you shoot any short videos so that I can broaden my horizons?"

"Don't mention it." Eddie sighed and said, "We agreed to join the Three Brothers of Peach Garden, but you ran away halfway. How could I have the nerve to go with you and make trouble? I didn't go!"

"You're such a loser! You don't even take this good opportunity?"

"Didn't you tell me before that if there is no woman in your heart, you will be a god when you draw your sword?"

"Are you stupid? You have the nerve to blame me..." Bai Ye slapped him directly: "I'm just trying to make you have no women in your heart, not to make you have no women around you!"

Chapter 225: Verbal Thank You?

Bai Ye looked at this useless thing in silence.

I asked you to be heartless, not to give up your lust.

"I can't carry it. I can't carry it at all!"

Bai Ye shook his head, and the mecha started up and took off:

"Go and have fun by yourself. I'm too lazy to talk nonsense with you."

[Ding! You defeated the super villain Electro and defended the peace of New York. ]

[Rewards are being settled...]

[Reward: 3500 points. 】

"Not bad. For a shocking price of 7, it's not a wasted trip."

Bai Ye was satisfied.

Riding in the Green Goblin mecha, he went to Wendy's house, hugged her left and right, and slept with Wendy and Na Lan all night.

midnight.

After the toilet in their house, Japan unfortunately encountered another attack and an explosion occurred. This time, the attack took place at their Huang Gong’s house.

……

The next day.

When Bai Ye was having breakfast with Wendy and Na Lan, he was checking Twitter and found out about this news.

"Wow, Japan has suffered so many disasters, hasn't it?" Bai Ye said with regret, "I really don't know how they offended those lawless terrorists. They have been bombing one after another in their country. Tsk tsk, it's really... pitiful!"

Na Lan couldn't help but feel very sad: "Oh my God, how could this happen? This is so scary. What if...what if there are still people alive inside Huang Gong?"

Wendy also prayed for disaster-stricken Japan: "I hope there will be no casualties."

"Well, although Japan has caused so many things, we should not gloat over their misfortunes at this time. After all, it is a life. Please look at it rationally. I hope that the Japanese have not... ahem, that's all."

Bai Ye choked and coughed.

"By the way, Wendy." Bai Ye took a sip of milk and said, "During this period, Galaxy Capital has conducted another capital operation and can probably earn more than 200 billion US dollars. You have the funds to acquire Twitter, and you can start the acquisition plan."

"So fast?"

Wendy blinked and asked:

"What did Galaxy Capital do to earn more than $200 billion?"

"secret."

Byakuya shrugged.

Originally, Bai Ye had planned to rob all the cultural relics in the British Museum, return them to their original countries, and then blow up the British Museum so that he could take the opportunity to reap the London stock market and use the money to help Wendy acquire Twitter and form the Galaxy Group's Internet media matrix.

But Bai Ye has found a better investment opportunity halfway, so let Daying wait a little longer.

"Okay, I won't ask anymore." Wendy said, "According to the plan we have agreed upon, you must at least acquire 10% of Twitter's shares and become Twitter's largest shareholder. According to Twitter's current market value of $235 billion, you must at least transfer $23.5 billion to my Mercury Internet Media account first."

"Little case."

Bai Ye made an OK gesture.

Wendy: "Also, let me remind you that if you acquire 5% of a company's shares, you have to announce it. This is too disadvantageous for us. You have to find a way to solve the regulatory problem."

Bai Ye nodded: "Don't worry, those regulatory rules are to restrict new money, not us. You can acquire 10% of the shares and then announce it. There will be no problem."

In fact, Bai Ye’s current younger brother, Musk, acquired 9.5% of Twitter’s shares when he acquired it, becoming Twitter’s largest shareholder in one fell swoop, and then announced it - this shows that some things are rules, but they do not apply to everyone, and some people are born specifically to break the rules.

Bai Ye’s plan to acquire Twitter is also preparing to imitate Musk’s process——

1. He concealed the truth and secretly bought 9.5% of the shares to become the largest shareholder.

2. Take advantage of the situation and launch a tender offer.

3. Playing hard to get, shareholders object to the falling share price and withdraw the offer plan.

4. He took advantage of the situation and took down Twitter half-heartedly during the court confrontation.

5. Twitter has transformed itself into the American version of WeChat through disorderly expansion.

Of course, Bai Ye’s process is just an imitation, not a copy, because some conditions are different.

For example, when Musk acquired Twitter, Twitter had already expanded to its limit and was on the decline, so it would be better to sell it for a good price. However, Twitter at that time had not yet seen its limit.

But Bai Ye also has advantages that Musk does not have. For example, the Osborne family is from an old American financial group, old money. Compared with new money like Musk, it has unparalleled connections in the political and business circles. Bai Ye also has the artificial intelligence "White Queen" in his hands. After acquiring Twitter, he can help Twitter take off. On the contrary, he can suppress Twitter to death, and so on.

"That's great." Wendy rubbed her hands excitedly: "Acquiring a social giant is an exciting thing to think about."

When Wendy and Na Lan were investing in Lofis, the funds they could control were less than 200 million US dollars at most, but Bai Ye now gives her the opportunity to control more than billion US dollars.

This alone is enough to make Wendy's status and influence in the venture capital circle have a qualitative leap. Even if Bai Ye doesn't want her in the future, with her qualifications, she can still become a big shot in the venture capital circle.

"This is unfair." Na Lan was jealous. "I'm working for you, but Wendy is able to achieve such a big career, while I can only do a slow and meticulous job?"

Bai Ye smiled helplessly: "Okay, okay, I'll approve another $10 billion for you, okay?"

"$20 million."

"Okay."

Seeing that Bai Ye agreed so readily, Lan immediately regretted it. The price she asked was too low. It seemed that Bai Ye really made a lot of money this time. Two billion US dollars was not worth anything.

Galaxy Capital.

"How much money did you make this time?"

Bai Ye asked while crossing his legs and smoking a cigar.

"$248.73 million."

Jordan sniffed the cigar handed to him by Bai Ye and grinned:

"Master, you are really amazing. You predicted that the Japanese stock market would fall long in advance and asked us to short the Japanese index. Before we knew it, we made tens of billions of dollars."

"Buffett is now so shameless as to use the title of stock god to cheat people? What the hell, you are the real stock god!"

"Oh, it's over, it's over." Bai Ye waved his hand and said, "Buffett is a senior after all. His value investment philosophy is still good."

"Young Master, you are too modest. What is value investing? It's just that Buffett relied on his strong capital to crush his opponent with money and then reap the benefits. There is no technical content at all. It's just that one force defeats ten skills." Jordan said, "But you are different, young master. You can accurately predict the direction of the global stock market and make tens of billions of dollars in a short-term investment. This is the real technical flow. It's because you are low-key and don't want to steal the limelight. Otherwise, old man Buffett would be so ashamed that he would commit suicide."

"Haha, stop flattering me." Bai Ye smiled and said, "The employees have worked hard, so the reward plan should be well done. If you work with me, I will eat the meat, but they will also get a bite of soup."

"Don't worry, it's already been done."

"Also, don't forget to keep an eye on the London Stock Exchange. There may be opportunities in the future."

Bai Ye warned.

This time, the money for the acquisition of Twitter was raised with the help of the Japanese stock market. Next time Bai Ye plans to let Ikana acquire NBC Universal, the London stock market will be used to raise the money.

Jordan: “Yes, I understand.”

Bai Ye read the financial report of Galaxy Capital and instructed Jordan to transfer money to Wendy's Mercury Internet Media and Na Lan's Jupiter Agriculture.

After finishing the matter with Galaxy Capital, Bai Ye went to Saturn Bio.

After devouring the Brand Group and the Life Foundation, it also launched the Extremis virus version 2.0. Now Saturn Bio has become a huge behemoth, second only to Osborn's medical complex.

The resources at hand are quite huge, and many projects are being carried out at the same time.

For example, the research on symbiotes and the research on Hulk serum - the Hulk serum comes from the blood that White Night drew from Hulk when Hulk was fighting Abomination.

"Master Sten, how does it feel to be back in New York?"

Bai Ye asked with a smile.

"Not bad." Serioel Stern said while eating a hamburger, "I had a pretty good time in Hengsan. Maybe it was because I was American, the people there almost treated us as nobles. But there were two things that really tormented me. One was their unhygienic food, and the other was that there were no toilets."

"They also have hamburgers there, but when I saw their production process... after paying, I threw them into the trash can and didn't dare to eat them."

"Haha, Hengsan, that's it."

Bai Ye laughed.

After chatting about daily life, Bai Ye asked about work issues: "Master Sten, do you have any specific ideas for the research on symbionts?"

——Both versions of Extremis Virus 2.0 and Extremis Virus 3.0 have been successfully developed. The next work will no longer require Serioel Stern, an S-level biological scientist, to be busy. It is enough to leave it to the engineers to do the follow-up. So in order not to waste Serioel Stern's talent, Bai Ye developed all the research on Saturn biology to Serioel Stern, allowing him to freely choose the projects he is interested in. Then Serioel Stern chose two projects of interest: symbiote and Hulk serum.

"Symbiotes, these are really amazing creatures." Speaking of this, Serioel Stern became interested: "I have never seen this kind of non-carbon-based, thinking, alien organic life symbiote..."

He began to talk endlessly to Bai Ye about how amazing the biological structure of the symbiote was.

Bai Ye interrupted him with a smile:

"Master Sten, you know...it's hard for ordinary people to understand all your professional knowledge. I just want to know, is there a way to transform the symbiote into a strong colony armor?"

Just as Bai Ye told Harry last night, the Iron Armor only has physical effects. Facing the elemental ability of Electric Man, Harry almost failed. Fortunately, he still has the physical strengthening ability of the Extremis virus. The Iron Armor and the Extremis virus together are not so safe, and mental attacks and soul attacks will also come into play.

Therefore, it is necessary to create a strong armor based on the symbiote.

Because the symbiotes have strong soul resistance, they themselves are alien single-celled organisms and naturally do not have any souls. However, it is also because of this that their matrix can resist soul attacks, such as the attack launched by Ghost Rider on Venom, using the Eye of Judgment, but it had little effect on Venom.

Moreover, symbiotes are resistant to magic. Because of their body structure and genetic relationship, they can be protected from a lot of damage caused by magic, but they cannot be completely immune to magical attacks.

So Bai Ye thought, erase the thoughts of the symbiote and use it to make a strong colonial armor. This will not only be of great benefit to Harry and the people around Bai Ye, but also to Bai Ye himself, who will need it.

Since Byakuya's Homelander template is benchmarked against Superman, he probably also has a weakness like Superman - magic resistance.

——Of course, Superman is not completely without magic, it’s just that his magic resistance is low. It is much higher than that of ordinary people. After all, ordinary people would be dead if they were hit by such a lot of magic. Superman has thick blood, so he will just be weak for a while.

If Bai Ye doesn't want to end up like Superman and be beaten by magic, he must find a way to increase his magic resistance - in Batman v1, Batman in the future Wizard King timeline easily knocked down Superman with magic props; in another tampered timeline of Batman v1, Superman was possessed by a dead person until Batman used Zatanna's gem to imprison the dead person; Superman was directly controlled by the witch with magic; Superman's super vision could not see through the buildings blessed by magic; DC magicians themselves also believed that magic was one of the means to defeat Superman besides kryptonite.

"I've only done some preliminary testing on the symbionts since I came back, and I don't know enough yet, so I can't guarantee this. I can only say that there is a possibility." Serioel Stern didn't dare to be too sure: "I need to study it in depth for a while before I can make an accurate judgment."

"No problem!" Bai Ye said with a smile, "Master Sten, your research funds will be quite abundant. As long as you don't deliberately want to bankrupt my Saturn creature, I will give you as much money as you want."

"No, no, it's enough as long as it's enough." Serioel Stern waved his hand and said, "However, instead of immediately studying whether the symbiote can be used as a strong colony armor, I think we should focus more on the research of the division and reproduction of the symbiote. After all, there are only three symbiotes on Earth now. If something unexpected happens in the research, there will be no replacement."

"Of course. Even if we can't make a strong colony armor, the symbiote still has very outstanding value. It is naturally impossible to let the symbiote become extinct." Bai Ye nodded and said, "Then Master Sten, you should study how to breed the symbiote first."

Bai Ye is not in a hurry to research the enhanced armor. It will be enough as long as it can be completed before Dormammu, Thanos and other god-like bosses run rampant on Earth.

Byakuya likes the various abilities of the symbiote. In addition to soul resistance and magic resistance, the symbiote can also copy the power of others and transform it into its own power. Among Toby's spiders, Spider-Man's spider sense was copied - if Byakuya obtains the strong colony armor, he also wants to copy her spider sense ability on Gwen, which is a very useful skill.

But Bai Ye absolutely did not want there to be a second consciousness inside his body. This would make him feel very awkward and uncomfortable. He felt as if he might be possessed or replaced by someone else at any time.

After the toxin entered Mary Jane's body, Bai Ye felt a little weak and did what everyone loved to do with Mary Jane.

Fortunately, Mary Jane explained to Bai Ye that because the conditions for the toxin's birth were very special, the toxin acquired life, like a newborn baby, with a weak self-awareness, with Mary Jane as the main person. Mary Jane was also able to block her own thought connection about the toxin, which made Bai Ye feel much more relieved.

……

Bai Ye and Tony met in a club.

"Hey, have you heard that there seems to be a problem with the Japanese nuclear power plant recently?"

Tony put his arm around a beautiful woman's waist, drank some wine, and talked to Bai Ye.

"Why are you just following the crowd? I think we should look at the problem rationally and not be led astray by public opinion. In fact, the problem of Japan's nuclear power plant is not that serious..." Bai Ye shrugged and said, "You ask me how I know? I just bought a fish, and the fish pinched my neck and told me!"

Tony: "..."

He looked at Bai Ye speechlessly and said:

"I think that the whole story of this incident is indeed that Japan is totally wrong, but we'd better find a way to solve the problem instead of gloating over it."

"You know the whole story of the nuclear power plant issue in Japan, and you still sympathize with them?" Bai Ye curled his lips and said, "The Japanese are a nation that has small courtesy but no great justice, and seeks self-interest but no benevolence. They want to make the whole world pay for Japan's mistakes... Tsk tsk, that's exactly what they are capable of."
