Chapter 136
"Stark Expo! Today?"
"Yes, Boss—"
On the oak dining table, a perfectly seared fried egg lay on the silver plate in front of Tang Song.
Large pieces of fried egg covered the silver plate, with a sprinkle of chopped green onions on the golden-yellow surface.
The green onions dotted the seared fried egg, looking incredibly appetizing.
On a plate next to it were two peeled boiled eggs.
The tender boiled eggs were even larger than Ostrich Eggs.
Tang Song cut into the large, unknown meat patty on his plate. Juice flowed from both sides of the patty, which was seasoned with a sprinkle of black pepper.
Although eating a meat patty for breakfast was a bit heavy, it was the best way to replenish nutrition.
The Great Desolation Bell tempered his bones and muscles. Besides absorbing the essence of the sun and moon, eating was the best way to replenish the energy consumed by his physical tempering.
However, the taste of this meat patty was only passable. Even with enough spice added by the chef, it still couldn't compare to free-range poultry and livestock.
After all, these poultry and livestock were the result of thousands of years of selective breeding based on human taste.
"This Brachiosaurus meat is good!" After finishing the meat on his tray, Tang Song felt the peristalsis in his stomach and intestines, and the nutrients and heat absorbed by his body, and commented.
Compared to ordinary beef, this Brachiosaurus meat provided more energy. The heat was at least double that of ordinary beef.
"If you like it, I'll have them send another batch over!" Lane sat across from Tang Song, eating his breakfast.
"How is the food processing plant preparation going?" Tang Song picked up a piece of seared dinosaur egg, eating as he asked.
"Currently, the cannery has begun production. This dinosaur meat canned food is temporarily only supplied to our Armed soldier. The first batch has already been transported to East Africa through channels and delivered to Kane!"
Lane used his knife and fork to tackle the fried egg in front of him, first fixing it with the fork, then cutting it into small pieces with the silver dining knife before putting it in his mouth.
"Did Dr. Hammond raise any objections?"
Tang Song recalled that Dr. Hammond's love for ancient creatures like dinosaurs came from the heart. Otherwise, he wouldn't have almost faced bankruptcy trying to create a so-called Jurassic Park.
Turning these ancient animals into canned food, would Dr. Hammond agree? "Dr. Hammond was very emotional at first, but after we proposed an additional investment of 200 million US Dollars, he reserved his opinion!"
Lane speared a piece of fried egg and answered Tang Song's question.
"How is the Jurassic Park preparation going?"
Tang Song picked up a boiled egg from the side and took a bite. It tasted no different from a regular egg.
"It will be open in three months. The Group Project Department has inspected the island, and the prospect for this project is very high.
If the Jurassic Park project is successful, they plan to follow up with Jurassic Park merchandise later. According to their estimation,
as long as the Jurassic Park project becomes a hit, the later merchandise profit could reach at least ten billion!"
"That's not bad. So, I invested correctly in this project!"
After finishing the two boiled dinosaur eggs, Tang Song quickly drank a large glass of milk.
"Boss is brilliant! However, the Group Project Department inspected the environment on the island and wants to build another airplane runway on the island to increase passenger flow!
But Dr. Hammond prevented it, citing the impact on the dinosaur's living environment!"
A young Maid on the side brought a basin of warm water to Tang Song, bowing slightly. Her loose Maid Outfit seemed to fully showcase her beauty to Tang Song.
Tang Song washed his hands in the prepared warm water basin, took a hot towel handed to him by another Maid, and dried his hands.
"Tell them to negotiate with the Costa Rican Government. Isla Nublar is less than 150 miles from the West Coast of Costa Rica! The airport can be built there. This will increase tourism revenue for the Costa Rican Government, and they should pay for the airport construction.
Also, add a few cruise ships from the West Coast..."
Tang Song sat on a sofa nearby and picked up some information about the Stark Expo that Lane had organized, starting to read it.
A Maid brought the freshly brewed tea to the table in front of Tang Song.
Tang Song crossed his legs and flipped through the information about the Stark Expo.
It was very detailed information, from the history and origin of the Stark Expo to its scale, and even the internal financial report that Stark Industries spent on this Expo during this period.
This kind of internal information, which is generally not disclosed externally, appearing here was naturally because Boss Tang was also a Major Shareholder of Stark Industries.
Oh, then that's fine.
Tang Song raised his eyebrows as he looked at the astronomical numbers on the financial report.
"The initial concept for the Stark Expo can be traced back to Howard Stark's time.
He bought a large piece of land near New York, wanting to build a large industrial expo and collect all inventions and creations beneficial to promoting technology development into a museum. However, before he could realize this wish, he died in a car accident!
Not long ago, Tony Stark restarted this project and completed it in a short time with huge investment!"
Tang Song flipped through the information organized by Lane, listening to Lane's narration, and looked up at him.
"Why does your tone sound a bit like you're giving a press conference introduction for the Stark Expo!"
Lane laughed, putting down his knife and fork: "Boss, you noticed!"
"Not long ago, when you went to Antarctica, Stark Industries specifically convened the Board of Directors to fund the re-hosting of this industrial expo."
"Since you weren't present, I represented you at this meeting.
This is what Tony Stark's Personal Assistant, Pepper Potts, said at the Board of Directors meeting. I modified it slightly! Many Director were actually reluctant to invest huge funds into an industrial expo that didn't seem very profitable.
However, because of the clean energy project launched by Stark Industries, the stock price of Stark Industries is currently at a historical high.
All Shareholder made money, which is why this money-burning project resolution was passed!"
"Boss, the opening ceremony of this expo tonight, will you..."
Tang Song threw the information onto the table and waved his hand: "It's been a while since I saw Tony Stark. Let's go see him and check how our Iron Man is doing lately?"
"I'll make the arrangements!" Lane wiped his mouth, stood up, said this, then asked: "Boss, who would you like to invite as your female companion tonight? Miss Skye or Ms. Fox?"
"Forget it, let them rest well. I won't bring them this time!"
Tang Song picked up the tea and took a sip...
...
John F. Kennedy International Airport!
Located in Idlewild, Queens, New York City, New York State, it is about twenty-one kilometers northwest of downtown New York City. It is a Federal 4F-level international airport, known as the Federal Gateway international aviation hub.
Ding Qing, who had just gotten off the plane, was wearing a floral shirt, shorts, and a pair of slippers, with brown sunglasses on his face. He looked like a perfectly normal Passenger.
He looked at the sun, then subconsciously raised his wrist to check the time.
His empty wrist made him curse, "Aishiba!" "Hey, girl! What time is it now?"
Ding Qing asked the woman next to him.
Li Xinyu glared at Ding Qing with disgust, pulling up her off-the-shoulder high-end luxury brands gown.
She hated this dress. Ding Qing had sent someone to buy it for her at a high-end luxury brands store in Seoul.
Wearing clothes worth tens of millions of Korean Won made her feel even more like a Gift.
The expensive gown was more like the fancy packaging on the outside of a Gift.
"Chairman Ding, please show some respect! I am a Police Officer from the South Korean Police Agency, after all!"
"Respect!?" Ding Qing grabbed Li Xinyu's gown and pulled it down, exposing her bare shoulders again.
"Hey, girl, Zi Cheng is dead and you're still alive. You should thank your pretty face. If you weren't a little useful, I would have already sunk you to the bottom of the Ocean to feed the fish!"
"I think Zi Cheng must miss you, his Go Teacher, down there!"
"If you don't want anything to happen to your Family, just be obedient!"
Li Xinyu looked at the ferocious-faced Ding Qing, too scared to speak for a moment.
Li Xinyu's Identity was a Detective from the South Korean Police Agency, and she was the Contact Person for Li Zi Cheng, the Undercover Agent who infiltrated the Golden Gate Group.
Her Disguised Identity was Li Zi Cheng's private Go Teacher.
After Li Zi Cheng's death, his Undercover Agent Identity was exposed, and Li Xinyu was immediately controlled by Ding Qing's Subordinate.
Li Xinyu knew how terrifying Ding Qing was. His words were definitely not a threat. Shi Wu was put into a gasoline drum / barrel and sunk into the Sea right in front of her...
"What time is it now?"
"Ten o'clock!" Li Xinyu looked at the time on her lady's wrist device and answered softly and honestly.
Ding Qing glanced at the agreed-upon venue, "Aishiba, did these guys stand me up!"
"Hello! Are you Chairman Ding Qing?"
Just then, a Big man in a black suit walked up from behind Ding Qing and asked him.
"I am Ding Qing! Are you Mr. Tang's person?"
Ding Qing adjusted his sunglasses downwards, sizing up the person in front of him.
The Big man in the black suit, wearing white glove and an earpiece, nodded slightly.
"We were sent by the Boss to pick you up. Sorry, Chairman Ding, our car was parked inside the airport, we didn't expect you to come straight out!"
A black Mercedes-Benz car drove up from not far away and stopped in front of Ding Qing.
The Big man stepped forward, opened the car door of the Mercedes-Benz, and bowed slightly, gesturing for the two to get in.
After Ding Qing and Li Xinyu got into the car, the Big man closed the car door and got into the front passenger seat of the Mercedes-Benz.
The Driver in the driver's seat stepped on the accelerator, and the car drove away from the airport.
On the Vehicle, Li Xinyu kept looking out the car window uneasily, her hand on the door release button under the car window. Several times she wanted to press it and jump out to escape.
Especially when the Mercedes-Benz passed a police car parked on the side of the road, her hand almost pressed it directly.
Ultimately, Li Xinyu held back. She could escape, but her Family was still in the hands of the Golden Gate.
She couldn't implicate them.
Li Xinyu looked out the Window at the busy traffic on New York Avenue, her complexion somewhat sorrowful.
Who would have thought that she, a Police Officer from the South Korean Police Agency, would be treated as a "Gift" by a Gang Boss and given to another Gang Boss.
"Hello, where are we going? Are we going directly to see Mr. Tang?"
Ding Qing's gaze had been observing Li Xinyu's action. Seeing her hand move away from the car's door release button, a cold laugh flashed across Ding Qing's lips.
He leaned forward onto the front seat, sticking his head out to ask the Big man in the front passenger seat about the Destination.
"No, Chairman Ding, we'll go to the hotel first. The Boss won't have Time to see you until tomorrow!"
The Big man raised his Head, looked at Ding Qing's face in the rearview mirror, and replied.
Hearing the Big man's words, Ding Qing's complexion instantly twisted. He subconsciously reached out and covered his abdomen.
However, he forced a smile onto his face, nodded at the Big man, and sat back in his chair.
The Big man took Ding Qing and Li Xinyu to the Four Seasons Hotel New York. As one of the most luxurious five-star Hotel in New York, looking at the towering Lobby, the marble floor, and the Columns.
When they checked into the Presidential Suite, Ding Qing was momentarily unsure whether this Boss Tang from New York valued him or not.
To say he valued him, he left him waiting at the Hotel. To say he didn't value him, he arranged for them to stay in a Presidential Suite costing tens of thousands of US Dollars a night. After entering the Room, seeing the Big man leave, Ding Qing immediately searched the entire Room, looking for potential hidden camera and recording equipment.
After confirming the Room was safe, Ding Qing rushed into the Bathroom, tore open his floral shirt, revealing his abdomen wrapped in gauze.
Looking at the bleeding abdomen, Ding Qing bit off the cap of a syringe, enduring the severe pain, and injected an anti-inflammatory injection.
......
"Yaxi! You annoying guy, why are you here?"
Inside Tang Manor, after dropping blood on a small jade tablet and being given a detoxification pill, Gu Zi Yun was led by a Maid to a Room in the Manor.
Gu Zi Yun stood by the Window, looking out at the lotus flowers blooming on the Lake Surface, somewhat lost in thought.
A young girl in a gothic Maid Outfit walked by the Lakeside, yawning and sleepy-eyed. She happened to look up and saw Gu Zi Yun standing by the Window.
"Who are you?"
Gu Zi Yun glanced at Zheng Duo En, clearly having no Impression of her.
"Number One!"
The ignored Zheng Duo En angrily called out Gu Zi Yun's former codename in the Organization.
This Appellation instantly changed Gu Zi Yun's gaze. Her face was filled with a smile, but her gaze was extremely indifferent, looking at Zheng Duo En as if she were a dead person.
Gu Zi Yun leaped out, taking a few strides, arriving in front of Zheng Duo En, reaching out and pressing her Head, about to smash it against a Stone Pillar in the nearby Corridor Pavilion.
Gu Zi Yun's speed was very fast, but because the skeleton demon poison in her body hadn't been completely cleared!
Her speed was at least seventy percent slower than usual. Zheng Duo En countered with a slap, hitting Gu Zi Yun's hand and blocking her attack.
Then, not to be outdone, she lifted her black Martin boots and kicked towards Gu Zi Yun's lower abdomen.
"Bang!"
Gu Zi Yun lifted her foot and delivered a side kick, kicking Zheng Duo En's attacking foot away, and followed up with a knee strike to Zheng Duo En's abdomen.
...…
"Aren't you going to stop them!"
In the Study with a view of the entire Lake View, Tang Song sat by the Window, sipping tea, watching the two girls fighting.
Selene, wearing a black leather trench coat, stood leaning against the Window with her arms crossed, looking at the leisurely Tang Song drinking tea, and couldn't help but ask.
"Let the Child fight, let them be!"
Tang Song said unhurriedly, holding his tea cup.
"How is it, are you getting used to living in the Manor lately?"
Selene crossed her arms, turned around, and looked at Tang Song: "It's alright, but sometimes I feel a bit lost. Before, my goal was always to hunt werewolves. Now that the Real Killer of my parents is dead, I suddenly don't know what to do!"
"If you're really bored, I have a batch of manpower I can give you!"
Professor Connors recently used perfect blood, combined with three types of vampire serum, to create a New Type of Vampire Clan.
They are not afraid of sunlight, not afraid of silver, and their strength and speed far exceed their kin. In the dark night, their strength and speed double explosively, and they even possess the ability to transform into a swarm of bats and disperse.
A perfect night demon race, this was the evaluation in the experiment report Professor Connors submitted to Tang Song.
Currently, the Laboratory has cultivated sixteen of these hybrid vampire.
Aside from the four kept at The Hive to cooperate with experiments, Tang Song plans to form the remaining twelve hybrid vampire into a team. He's already thought of the name, it will be called Night Demon.
As for the Leader of this Night Demon team, this Goddess of the Night is naturally the perfect candidate.
"I thought you just wanted to sleep with me?"
Selene was a little surprised. After interacting for so long, she thought she understood this Man very well.
Outwardly gentle, he was actually a Man with a strong Controlling Desire.
Especially towards women and his own Influence.
Selene's doubtful and suspicion gaze made Tang Song couldn't help but rub his nose. With a wave of his hand, Selene, who was leaning against the Window, was directly pulled into his Embrace through the air.
A gentle breeze blew across the lotus pond. The two girls were fighting by the lake. The distant Window seemed to be blown by the wind, making a gentle rattling sound.
......
Night fell. The newly completed Stark Expo was brightly lit, with people coming and going. There were news vans everywhere, and news Reporter standing in front of cameras reporting.
Whenever a luxury car drove up, these news Reporter would signal the photographer to step forward and take a flurry of photos. Of course, there were also a few Reporter who recognized the owner of the luxury car, and just had the photographer symbolically raise their camera.
Many Reporter even directly connected to television stations and started live broadcasts of the scene.
In Tony Stark's own words, it was like a zoo.
They were like a group of animals being watched.
Currently, Tony Stark, after his Iron Man Identity was exposed, was riding a wave of popularity.
Due to the clean energy launched by Stark Industries, the stock of Stark Industries has been soaring, currently at a historical high.
Therefore, people who received invitations from Stark Industries were also happy to show their support.
Luxury car drove into the Venue one after another. Several senior executives of Stark Industries stood at the entrance acting as greeters.
Greeting the Important Figure entering the Venue.
When a silver-white sports car stopped in front of the Venue entrance, many media Reporter rushed forward to take photos. Of course, there were also a few Reporter who recognized the owner of this sports car, and just had the photographer symbolically raise their camera.
The gull-wing doors of the silver-white sports car opened, and Tang Song, dressed in a white casual suit, stepped out of the car. He adjusted his suit, held his cane, and walked straight towards the Venue.
"Hey! Tang! Long time no see!"
Tang Song turned around. A middle-aged man in an indigo suit and black-rimmed glasses was enthusiastically greeting him.
"Hammer Industries!"
Tang Song looked at Justin Hammer, who was extending his hand to him from a distance, and shook his hand in greeting.
"Tang, just call me Justin. You are also a Shareholder of Hammer Industries! According to your Eastern saying, we are not outsiders!"
"Mr. Lane said you went on vacation recently. How was your rest? You must take care of your health..."
Hammer Industries's attitude towards Tang Song was very enthusiastic.
So enthusiastic that his female companion next to him was a little surprised.
What she didn't know was that it was precisely because of the Italian Military arms order that Hammer Industries subcontracted from Boss Tang.
Hammer Industries had enough funds to grease the wheels and become the Department of Defense's number one Weapon Supplier after Stark Industries withdrew.
Moreover, Tang Song was now also a Shareholder of Hammer Industries. Although his ranking wasn't high, he was indeed one of their own to Justin Hammer.
Especially when he came to his old Rival's Territory, Hammer Industries felt somewhat Lack of Confidence.
"Tang, this is Sigrid Beth, my Personal Assistant!"
Justin Hammer introduced his female companion to Tang Song, and at the same time, looked to Tang Song's left and right, saying with some surprise:
"Tang, didn't you bring a female companion?"
Tang Song smiled at him: "I came by myself this time!" Then he extended his hand to his female companion in greeting: "It's a pleasure to meet you, Miss Beth!"
...…
"Stark Expo! Tony Stark's scale is really grand!"
Justin Hammer walked beside Tang Song, occasionally greeting a few acquaintance they passed, while also quietly introducing their Identities to Tang Song.
"He publicly announced that he wants to move all the inventions and creations that promote industrial development worldwide into this Museum, which is why many industrial giants have come!"
"With his current Identity as Iron Man, this Museum will definitely attract worldwide Gaze. No Industrial Company wants people to think their Company has no Value to the world's industrial development!"
"Look, Yashida Corporation's people are here too. Yashida Corporation is notoriously reluctant to attend such events.
That girl should be Shingen Yashida's granddaughter!
I saw her when I went to Tokyo. She was with Shingen Yashida!"
Tang Song followed Justin Hammer's Gaze. On the red carpet, a woman in a black professional suit, surrounded by a group of people, walked towards them.
A black suit jacket, white shirt, plus a hip-hugging skirt. Although it was a professional suit, worn on her tall figure with a nine-head proportion, it had a unique charm.
