Man in Marvel, Host of Venom

Chapter 240, Jonathan Owen and the Study of Transtemporal Technology
In New York City, in a private research laboratory, a middle-aged man in a white coat is sitting in front of a computer and typing something.

After a while, a woman also wearing a white coat came in from the door. She put her hand on the man's shoulder and said softly, "Dr. Owen, you haven't slept for two days, it's time to take a rest."

After hearing the woman's persuasion, Jonathan Owen also saved the data he had just created on his computer, then stood up, turned to look at her and said softly: "Sorry for worrying you again, Sylvia."

"I didn't expect that it has already been two days. Every time I concentrate on work, I always lose track of time."

Seeing Owen's tired face, Sylvia also handed him a cup of freshly brewed hot cocoa: "Our experiment has reached the final stage, and it's time for you to relax properly."

"After all, if you really fell ill, then our experiment is really in trouble."

"Don't push yourself too hard, Dr. Owen. We have experienced so many difficulties. Now the experiment has reached the final stage. Soon we will be able to make a report and get scientific research funds."

"When this technology is applied in the future, our laboratory will definitely enter the ranks of top laboratories."

"So after drinking this cup of hot cocoa, go and have a rest. Our laboratory cannot be without you in the future."

Hearing Sylvia's outlook on a bright future, Jonathan Owen also looked at her face with a gentle smile while drinking hot cocoa.

Fortunately, Sylvia, his assistant, was always with him, otherwise he would not have been able to complete the experiment by himself. The various difficulties encountered in the process alone were enough to make him flinch.

After finishing the cocoa in one sip, Jonathan Owen also placed the cup in his hand on the table, then cheered up and said to Sylvia: "Don't worry, I know my body."

"There is only one last bit left in this part of the model. I will take a rest after summarizing this part. You can work on other things first."

"Really? I don't want to see you sitting here after I come back in a few hours." Sylvia looked at Jonathan Owen suspiciously. It was obvious that there had been such cases before, and she clearly said It's good to go to rest, but when she comes back after a while, the other party is still sitting here working.

Jonathan Owen also smiled when he heard this, yawned and then promised firmly: "I really feel a little sleepy, so don't worry, I will definitely go to rest soon."

Hearing Jonathan Owen's promise, and seeing his exhaustion and tiredness, Sylvia finally nodded, and after a few words of advice, she walked out of the laboratory to do other work.

Thinking of Sylvia leaving, the smile on Jonathan Owen's face gradually disappeared, replaced by a bit of sadness.

In fact, the current situation in the laboratory is not optimistic, which is why he works so hard. He did not tell Sylvia the real situation because he did not want to make her worry.

Now the laboratory's funds are about to run out, but they still need a large amount of funds to form complete experimental results and reports.

He has been working desperately these days to see if he can shorten this process and use all the remaining funds to complete the work.

However, after staying up all night for two days, although he still had some gains, he still couldn't reach the point where he could finish the work with the remaining funds.

He has been carrying out this experiment for several years, and he can't delay any longer. It has been two years since Sylvia came to help him.

At first, his experiment had a lot of staff, but slowly many people left, and now only he and Sylvia are left.

It's a bit unlucky to say that, originally, their working laboratory relied on the funding of the famous entrepreneur and philanthropist Wilson Fisk to carry out scientific experiments.

But who knew that the other party died suddenly some time ago, and a lot of black material was found out.

The real identity of the famous entrepreneur and philanthropist Wilson Fisk is actually Jin Bin, the boss of the New York underground gang, who has done a lot of crimes.

The sudden death of Wilson Fisk and the revelation of black material not only caused their laboratory to lose funding, but also because of their close relationship with the underworld, they were banned and reviewed by the government for a long time before they were allowed to continue their research.

This accident caused them to lose a lot of manpower. Basically, most of them left during this period, leaving only a few.

Then, after the subsequent shortage of funds and difficulties encountered in the project, several people left, and in the end there were only him and Sylvia left.

It's not that he didn't think of other ways to solve the problem, such as finding investment from other company groups or individuals to continue research.

But because of Wilson Fisk's affairs and involvement, most companies are not willing to have too much involvement with them.

Although the Stark Group and Industry Zero don't care about these things, they have a higher vision and don't care about their projects at all.

Although their project is called cross-time and space research, which sounds very high-end, it is actually a bit difficult to implement, even a bit mysterious, and it is not the current mainstream at all.

Moreover, for Jonathan Owen, a scientist without much fame and achievements, the risk of investment is indeed a bit high. I don't know when their achievements will be realized and what they can be used for. Anyone who is not open-minded will invest.

After failing to raise funds through legitimate channels, Jonathan Owen also thought about finding some gangsters to invest in. After all, Wilson Fisker was a gangster before, and people in the gangsters always have nothing to do with their previous identities. mind.

With this in mind, Jonathan Owen found Silverman, the gangster in New York, after several rounds, and enthusiastically introduced his research to him, hoping to get some investment.

But it's a pity that Silverman didn't have any interest in their experiments at all, and was even a little angry at his stalking soliciting investment, so he sent someone to beat him up and drive him out.

After running into obstacles one after another, Jonathan Owen was also a little frustrated and desperate, but thinking about the experiment that was about to be completed and Sylvia who had been accompanying him to encourage him, he gritted his teeth and persisted.

In the end, he packaged and sold all his previous research results, and mortgaged his only property, and only then did he raise the last sum of money, which has been used until now.

But now this small amount of funds is about to be used up, and he really doesn't know how to get more funds.
