"Speaking of which, you only just moved in yesterday. How did you, in a single night's time..."
"...establish a specially reinforced underground tunnel that connects to the sea?"
"I'm very sure that when I bought this estate for you, I thoroughly investigated it, and there absolutely couldn't have been any tunnels underground!"
Listening to Tony Stark's frantic rant, Michael smiled slightly and said nothing.
To be honest, on Venus, that... uninhabited place with constant acid rain like a hurricane.
Even after only staying for two days, Michael felt that if he didn't return to Earth, he would probably go crazy!
However, Michael did not respond to Tony Stark's rant.
Should he tell him that this underground tunnel, which looked very sci-fi and allowed him to fly at high speed, was actually created by Michael with a snap of his fingers, costing only a few points of energy that recovered in a single breath?
Besides, perhaps Tony Stark was just ranting and didn't actually want to know anything...
"My second request."
"Where's my company?"
Earlier, Michael had revealed a lot of information to Tony Stark and asked for three returns.
The first, naturally, was this luxurious private estate on Long Island.
The second, naturally, was to have Tony Stark use completely private resources to set up a company for him.
There was no specific purpose, it was just... he wanted to be the richest man in the World for fun, to see if he could compare his wealth with Black Panther.
That's all!
Otherwise, what power could opening a company bring Michael? He acted on a whim!
"Relax!"
"You can trust me to handle things!"
"If the company wasn't already up and running, I wouldn't even have the face to come see you, alright?"
"All management and employees, on the surface, and even in the files of intelligence agencies, will have no connection to our Stark Family."
"This kind of hidden power is almost essential for every family-run conglomerate, in case of future accidents, to rise again!"
"So, on the surface, you will have no connection to me, Tony Stark, or the Stark Family!"
Tony Stark rolled his eyes wildly, an expression that said, 'You actually despise me.'
"In this World, having money means... being the boss!"
"Boss Tony took only one day to complete all the procedures for you!"
"However, why use... this name?"
"By the way, you still haven't explained what... this means!"
"Could it also be an acronym like S.H.I.E.L.D....?"
"Is this some organization behind you?" Tony Stark looked at Michael with suspicion, as if trying to see something bloom from him.
Of course, in fact, Tony Stark had guessed a little.
Because... it was indeed an acronym.
However, obviously, this was just an obscure internet organization from Michael's Earth before he transmigrated!
The reason Michael wanted to use this name was, firstly, to commemorate it, and secondly, of course, because the company Michael was preparing to open would use some... items contained within.
Before his transmigration, Michael was also a pseudo-member of this foundation.
The reason he was called a pseudo-member was because he was only interested, had learned a little, and wanted to register as a member, but found he couldn't register for some reason... he had to use a Google email to register. Why? Was Penguin not fun anymore, or was being a New Groom not good? It has to be said, .
…some things, with very imaginative ideas.
At least, Michael knew that among them, there was a containment object that could cure all diseases! Pay attention! It was all diseases! In as little as half an hour, and no longer than two hours, it could completely cure all diseases! How amazing is that?! In the World before Michael's transmigration, such a thing was naturally just a fantastical idea.
However, for Michael, all fantastical ideas had the potential to become reality! At least, this containment object from a fantastical idea, capable of curing all diseases, Michael could easily materialize! He could also materialize relevant data for this newly established… Group to produce!
Michael believed that with such a miraculous containment object, becoming the World's richest person would be simple!
Of course, such immense wealth would naturally attract the covetousness of others, even leading to snatching—no, it would definitely lead to snatching! This involves the need for private armed forces; without sufficient military power, how could one ensure their own interests aren't infringed upon, like a certain company wagging its tail begging for scraps? In fact, this is also easy to solve!
Especially for Michael, who possesses mutated gems.
Therefore, this newly established Group, in addition to producing black-technology-like healing agents, will also take over the weapon manufacturing department that Tony Stark shut down!
In the original plot, this weapon department, after Obadiah's death, with no other resistance, was acquired by Hammer Industries.
But now, with Michael's intervention, there's naturally no business for Hammer Industries.
Michael even suspected that Hammer Industries, without acquiring Stark's weapon manufacturing department, might not be able to trigger the plot of "Iron Man 2". It probably couldn't, right? Hmm… with Tony's physics knowledge replicated, it seems Ivan Vanko is no longer needed…
"Haven't I told you?"
Michael glanced at Tony Stark.
"What?"
"When did you say that?"
Tony Stark's hand, which had been gently swirling his wine glass, paused. He immediately became furious and questioned him back.
Didn't… I tell you? Don't you know?
"Is that so?"
Seeing Tony's expression, Michael chuckled inwardly, feigned a confused look, and pretended to think for a moment.
"Well, maybe I didn't say it."
Michael's nonchalant attitude made Tony Stark grind his teeth in frustration.
He looked at the Mark IV standing beside him, thought for a moment, and finally sighed, slumping onto the sofa.
He couldn't win!
