I Am Gwen's Spider-Man Mentor

Chapter 37 The Endgame of Stark Industries
Obadiah waited anxiously for the result of the attack - he knew that no matter what, this was his final blow, if Tony Stark and Raymond Xu could die, then master Stark Industries In any case, there is room for turning around.

But if they didn't die, then the one who died... was himself.

The bearded former CEO is well aware of the cost of such an attack on United States soil.

But in the final analysis, as long as those two people die, the White House will not touch itself anyway-Obadiah knows that the current White House cannot afford the cost of problems with a cross-cutting giant like Stark Industries.

The secretary slammed open the door of the office, and the young secretary was sweating on his forehead.Although Obadiah rubbed his fingers to relieve his tension, he still couldn't stop his impulse at this moment—the man stood up abruptly, and asked before the secretary could speak: "What's the matter?"

As if he could turn bad news into good news by asking in advance.

The secretary swallowed, and replied with some embarrassment: "They... didn't succeed."

This brief news caused Obadiah, who had always stood in front of everyone as a giant in the past, to shake, and then the giant sat down on the chair with a dejected expression on his face.

The secretary didn't run for his life, and now he knew that even if he betrayed his boss, Obadiah Stein would be tied to his career.Selling out your boss will only make you die faster—how can you trust such a subordinate who can betray anyone?

Obadiah sat in a chair, bowed his head, pinched the bridge of his nose.His breathing is loud, just like Darth Vader in "Star Wars" panting.In the end, the sound of breathing even made the secretary himself feel quite oppressed and out of breath—then Obadiah spoke:

"You go out first, I think I still have some friends in Washington DC."

Obadiah's words were ashamed, and he knew that he was almost certain to die at this time, but he still had to struggle to some extent.

The secretary walked out with heavy steps, and Obadiah picked up the phone with a calm expression. He first dialed He Jinbin:

"You have to kill him, or you get nothing!" Obadiah calmly delivered his threat to the underground emperor of New York-albeit a threat that seemed weak.

"Stan." Jin Bin's voice was hoarse and deep, "You have many friends in Washington DC, did none of them tell you that the Oval Office bet on Raymond Xu?"

"I know..." Obadiah's voice also became low, like a giant moan after being tired: "I just didn't expect those bloody bureaucrats to be so ruthless..."

"Forget it, Mr. Stein." Obadiah seemed to be able to hear the sarcasm in Jin Bin's words, "You knew it a long time ago, but you refused to accept your fate."

Obadiah's voice was completely cold: "You say that, are you going to betray our agreement?"

"I've already told you my attitude." Kim didn't care about Obadiah's threat. In fact, the long paragraph he just quoted about the so-called "bureaucratic attitude in Washington" represented his own attitude. .

What made Wilson Fisk the uncrowned king in New York was not his muscles, but his ruthlessness and background—Obadiah only knew that the opponent’s background was among the senators and the Supreme Court.

For the same reason as Professor Xu, Jin Bin also wanted to help Obadiah Stein complete this high-risk gamble, but he could not betray his source of power or kill himself.

The stalwart ex-CEO dropped the phone dejectedly. He knew that Jin Bing was his last hope. If Jin Bing refused to get him a hand, then he was probably doomed.

Looking back on the whole process, Obadiah doesn't even know how he lost-he holds all the power of the entire Stark Industries.From his point of view, Raymond Xu just went to meet with Tony Stark's personal assistant, and then he got the support of Washington, and then he easily used a speech to provoke the insiders of Stark Industries Fighting, destroying most of the cards in your hand that you can play.

Just when he decided to take further action, the damned Tony Stark actually came back-in this way, the timing of Raymond Xu's speech was so clever that people doubted whether he had the ability to predict.

I thought he was just a nobody, and thought that asking two policemen to teach him a lesson would make him retreat from difficulties, but he didn't expect that the other party had been pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger, and in the end he was the last one. The speech attracted the attention and support of Washington, and then destroyed nothing that Obadiah was proud of.

Although the core of all this is based on such a foundation-Raymond Xu has the support of his old friend Nathaniel Wade in the process, and Nathan is the most senior technical officer of IARPA, He's high enough to get through the voice of Director of National Intelligence Stephanie Haynes.

But Obadiah couldn't possibly know all this.Therefore, as a traditional American who admires strength, he is even curious about Xu's magical "Oriental wisdom"...and deeply afraid.

The former CEO slumped on his seat, and he began to think about it—will those bureaucrats in Washington kill him after he fails?After all, he has held too many secrets in the past 30 years, and it is not in everyone's interest to let such a person go to jail in the public eye.

In addition to the phrase "If you lose, you will hold grudges; if you win, you will counterattack and reckon." Another saying that those bureaucrats advocate is "Only the dead can keep secrets."

Just when Obadiah was trying to let go of his mind and try to sit on the chair belonging to the CEO of Stark Industries for a while longer and enjoy the taste of power for a while longer, the phone in his hand suddenly rang.

Like a drowning man grasping at a straw, the decadent man hurriedly grabbed the phone receiver: "Hello!"

"Mr. Obadiah." The person on the other side of the phone used a voice that had been processed, "I believe you have finally realized that you have nowhere to go."

"What do you think?" Obadiah, who had seen through his hole cards, said angrily. Although this is already an obvious fact, exposing the scars will always arouse his anger.

"To make a long story short." The processed voice was completely devoid of emotion, "We offer you a chance, a chance to at least—survive."

"How do you live?" asked Obadiah. "Put me in jail? A plea bargain? Whose details do you want? Or something from me?"

After the long list of questions, he finally sneered: "You think I will give you these?"

"You will, because we don't want these." The other party said such contradictory words, and then the phone was hung up.

"Puff-puff-"

Obadiah only had time to hear two strange sounds from outside the quiet door, which sounded like silenced guns and subsonic bullets, before he saw the door of his office being pushed open suddenly.

On both sides of the secretary's fallen body, a long line of special forces in black approached him with their guns aimed at him.Immediately afterwards, a bald agent in a black suit walked in.He looked at Obadiah with a smile:

"Introduction, Jasper Sitwell, we have arrested you."

----split line----

"Obadiah is really a lunatic." Stephanie put down the report in her hand, "Using the security company of Stark's family—actually Stark's private soldiers to kill Stark himself is really crazy. Like a man of his time. Seems like Raymond didn't teach him how civilized people fight after all."

"But it was unexpected. The Navy's report showed that they traced back the IP address of the uploader of the data link information, and that address came from a project that we would never have thought of." Nathaniel Wade said calmly while holding the tablet in his hand He read, "The project has not been delivered, and it just so happens that it is in the hands of Raymond Xu."

"You don't shy away from the faults of your alumni." Stephanie laughed out loud, "With all due respect, is this considered to be clearing the relationship and protecting yourself?"

"Not really." Nathan replied calmly, "You know, I'm just a member of IARPA, just a technician, and I'm only responsible for stating technical issues. All I have to do is be objective and truthful."

"Nathan." Stephanie looked at her subordinates meaningfully, "That's why everyone likes you."

A politician like Stephanie, no matter how scheming she is and how she plays with people's hearts, needs someone like Nathaniel Wade, because all scheming must be based on facts and facts, and you can Selective reporting of facts can also do practical things that are only beneficial to oneself, but in the end everything can't get around people like Nathan.

It's also Nathan's own source of power.

"So, you mean that Raymond Xu went to Stark's house wearing the suit that everyone expected to be undeliverable, and made Obadiah suffer such a big blow?" Stephanie The tone of the question, even she herself may not be able to tell whether it is ridicule or doubt.

"I can't tell. Two Navy pilots described a little girl in a white suit dancing on the battlefield for a long time, but I always think that's 'our girl', the one we talked about."

"Is it our spider sister?" Stephanie understood Nathan's hint, "She ran all the way from New York to the West Coast, and just when such a big incident happened inside Stark Industries' senior management?"

Nathan spread his hands to express that he knew nothing. It was his business to sort out information, but he had nothing to do with intelligence analysis and inferences.

Stephanie laughed secretly when she lowered her head: "It seems that this little spider is not as harmless as we imagined, but she will take the initiative to participate in this power game."

　It's too miserable to follow up. If you want to raise it, you can turn to the last chapter first, and then continue to wait. . .
