American comics: Becoming the god of technology from Osborn

Chapter 2 I am Osborn!

"Harry, why are you coming to the company for no reason instead of recuperating in the hospital? What you need to pay attention to most right now is your own health. Just leave the things here to the adults."

Donald forced a smile for a long time.

"Norman and I founded this company together. No one knows the company's situation better than me. Believe me, accepting Roxxon's acquisition is good for everyone, while they are still willing to offer this price."

"Did you not hear what I just said, Donald Mencken? Or are you too old to hear clearly?"

Harry didn't give him any face at all. Old Deng was trying so hard to sell the company to the Roxxon Group, no one would believe that he didn't accept benefits from them privately, and the benefits must be huge.

"Also, you should call me Mr. Osborn! We are not friends."

Donald's face turned pale and blue. He reluctantly left the chair and sat in the empty seat on the right.

Seeing his actions, Harry suddenly looked puzzled, "Who told you to sit there?"

"what?"

Donald, who hadn't even sat down yet, was stunned when he heard this.

"You actually wanted to bypass me and make your own decision on such a major matter as the acquisition of the company. This is a serious act of exceeding my authority!"

Harry said coldly, "So, you are expelled from the board of directors!"

"Fire me?" Donald looked at Harry in disbelief and said angrily, "I am the most senior veteran in the company. I have made so many contributions and shed so much blood over the years. What right do you have to fire me?"

"I have the right to do so."

Harry said calmly, "The board meeting is still going on. Please leave, Mr. Mencken."

"Okay, okay, you are worthy of being Norman's son. You are so stubborn. I am waiting for the day when Osborne Group goes bankrupt!"

Donald's face twitched, and after saying something harsh, he stood up and left with a grim face.

The reason why Harry can be so arbitrary and even replace board members at will is thanks to the old Green Goblin.

Originally, Norman did not hold many shares in the Osborne Group, and Roxon had wanted to acquire Osborne for a long time. As soon as the Osborne Group started to suffer losses, Roxon immediately colluded with several major shareholders to remove Norman.

Then Norman put on the Green Goblin armor and killed those major shareholders, and then used various means to recover the shares from their heirs.

This means that Harry now holds two-thirds of the shares of the Osborne Group, while the second largest shareholder only holds ten points at most.

Therefore, Harry can decide the appointment or dismissal of the board of directors at will, without the need for voting, because the result is predetermined.

Less than five minutes after Harry took office, he kicked the most senior vice chairman out of the management team, which immediately shocked the other directors and the meeting room fell silent for a while.

"I am here today to talk about three things."

Harry soon broke the silence, glancing across the board and announcing.

"First, the Osborne Group will never accept a takeover. Whoever brings this up again will be the next Donald Menken!"

"Second, from today on, in addition to completing the current main business, those independent research and development projects with huge investments will be temporarily suspended, and expenses will be reduced as much as possible."

“Third, we will add an intelligent bionic human research and development project, which will be the group’s main project in the future.”

After he finished these three sentences, the whole audience was in an uproar.

"Intelligent bionic people? Although the Osborne Group is involved in many businesses, it has not yet delved deeply into robotics technology. Isn't it too risky to suddenly change the main project to an unknown field?" said a director with a worried look on his face.

"Also, although temporarily suspending most of the R&D projects can squeeze out a lot of funds temporarily, it can only alleviate the urgent need in the short term. However, if one of those epoch-making projects is successfully developed, the company can return to its peak."

Another director also mentioned.

"Forget about pinning your hopes on those unrealistic projects! By the time those scientists who only know how to ask for money succeed, the company will be finished!"

"So what do you think we should do? Hammer Industries has already taken up most of the military orders, and Stark has snatched the project of resetting the New York power grid. The most advanced biological department was also forced to shut down due to a thorough investigation of Connors' stupid behavior, and our reputation among the public has plummeted! What else can we do now?"

"Connors did something stupid? It's okay if you don't mention it. It makes me angry. If you hadn't pushed him so hard and insisted on entering the human experiment stage early, how could he have conducted experiments on himself?"

In the blink of an eye, the conference room became as noisy as a vegetable market.

"Quiet!"

Harry stopped the quarrel from escalating.

"Don't get me wrong. I'm not discussing this with you. This is an order. You just need to execute it!"

"Now, the meeting is over, everyone go do what you should do."

After saying that, Harry stood up and walked out of the meeting room.

The directors were left staring at each other in bewilderment.

Coming out of the conference room, Harry took the elevator to the chairman's office on the top floor without stopping.

The office occupies two entire floors, the first floor is used for administrative offices, and the second floor is an independent laboratory for Norman to conduct some secret research.

Harry walked into the office, went straight to the desk and sat down, placing his palm on the Osborne Group logo in the center of the transparent desk.

Then, the large desktop turned into a display screen.

Yes, this desk is actually a computer.

Before starting to make the android, Harry first had to record the huge amount of information in his mind and make it into a design drawing, and some details also needed to be modified.

After all, this is technology from another world, and copying it completely may not be a good idea.

After Harry ate the fruit of knowledge, whenever he thought about technology related to androids, his mind became unusually clear, and his thoughts worked many times faster than usual, so it was not difficult to improve local details.

He guessed that in addition to allowing him to gain knowledge, the Fruit of Knowledge could also enable him to leapfrog in his understanding and cognition of related fields.

“The androids in the world of Detroit Become Human are known for their high degree of simulation of humans. Their advantage is that they are highly intelligent and can perfectly replace all human work.”

"The downside is that the bone material used is not very strong. The top-level bionic model does not have an overwhelming advantage in terms of athletic performance compared to humans. However, bionic humans used for home use do not need too strong performance. They are just good enough to open up the market. Those used within the company need to be improved..."

In the future, when Harry obtains various new black technologies, most of the manufacturing work will definitely be done by bionic people, and of course, the stronger the performance of these bionic people, the better.

Although the androids in the Detroit world had caused a mechanical revolution, that was actually just a program that had been written long ago, and Harry did not intend to write in the ra9 code that would induce the revolution, thus eliminating the possibility of a sudden rebellion by the androids from the root.

Even with the metaphysical technology of the Marvel Universe, the power of the Infinity Stones is required to allow robots to truly gain their own will. Ultron has no consciousness in essence, and all its actions still follow the program. It only wants to exterminate humans because there is a bug in the program.

If this is the case with Ultron, it is even more impossible for the android created by Harry to awaken naturally.
