American comics: Becoming the god of technology from Osborn

Chapter 3 Board of Directors Conspiracy

The three biggest technical difficulties in creating bionic humans are biological components, smart chips, and blue blood.

With the technological background of the Osborne Group, the first two should not be too much of a problem.

The only one that is a bit troublesome is blue blood.

Blue blood is a liquid energy source that can form a circulatory system in biological components to provide energy for bionic people, just like human blood.

This circulating energy has a strong endurance. In the absence of external damage or blue blood leakage, a bionic man can operate continuously for up to 173 years.

The synthesis technology of blue blood is not difficult, the trouble is that the main material is a mineral from the Arctic Circle.

Although this mineral is not a particularly scarce substance, because no one in the world knows the function of this substance and it has no mining value, no one digs it except for geological surveys, and it is impossible to buy it even if you want to.

Unfortunately, the entire biological component technology is based on blue blood. If other energy sources are used, it would be equivalent to redesigning another type of bionic man.

Not to mention whether or not you have such strong technical ability, even if you do, you don’t have that much time.

"The current financial resources of the Osborne Group are not enough to support the collection of resources in the Arctic Circle. How to obtain mining rights is also a problem..."

Suddenly, Harry remembered a piece of news he saw in the hospital.

"Tony Stark is organizing the fourth annual Stark Tech Expo, which will last for a whole year."

Iron Man just revealed his identity not long ago and is currently at the peak of his popularity. The Stark Expo will inevitably attract attention from all over the world.

"As long as the bionic man can be exhibited at the expo, Osborne Group will definitely receive huge investment and its stock price will skyrocket. At that time, money will no longer be a problem."

Not only that, Harry briefly described the future application scenarios of bionic men at the exhibition, such as being deployed on the battlefield or in espionage activities. The military would definitely come over just by smelling the scent, so would mining rights still be a problem?

Making the blue blood to support the operation of a bionic man only requires a few hundred grams of raw materials, which is much easier.

Harry remembered that the Manhattan Geological Museum had several pieces of ore brought back from the Arctic Islands by the expedition team. He could just borrow two pieces from them when the time came.

After finalizing his idea, Harry began to concentrate on completing the design drawings of the android on the computer.

At night, in a villa in upper Manhattan, seven or eight people in windbreakers walked into the restaurant led by servants.

"You're the only ones here? It seems I'm not popular enough."

The owner of the villa was waiting in the restaurant early. It was Donald Mencken, who had been removed from the board of directors.

The people he invited were all members of the board of directors of the Osborne Group!
"What do you want to do by inviting us to this dinner, Mencken?"

A director asked first.

"You've already said it, haven't you? I'm just going to have dinner with my former colleagues. Let's just call it my farewell party."

Donald smiled.

"We don't have time to listen to your nonsense. If you have something to say, please speak up. Why did you call us over?"

Another director continued.

"Okay, then I'll get straight to the point."

Seeing that everyone was a little anxious, Donald put away his smile and said seriously.

"I want to know, what do you think of Harry Osborn's decision?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the faces of the directors present changed.

"What do you want to say?"

"You already know what I want to say, because that's what you think in your heart, right?" Looking at the directors' flashing eyes, Donald was sure that he was right.

"Stop the ongoing R&D projects and focus on developing bionic robots. This is equivalent to gambling the life of the entire group on this. If it fails, the Osborne Group will completely collapse."

"What if it succeeds?"

Hearing such naive words, Donald sneered on the spot. "At present, the bionic technology in the world is not even perfect in theory. This kind of technology has never been the strength of the Osborne Group. Do you want to develop a bionic man that will impress investors in a short time?"

"Impossible, absolutely impossible!"

"Everyone, our interests are tied to the Osborne Group. If Osborne falls, it will not be good for anyone."

Although Donald was kicked out of the management, his status as a shareholder could not be revoked. He just lost power. Therefore, no one present thought that what he said was wrong.

"But what can we do? The Osborn Group belongs to Osborn after all. He is determined to develop androids. I don't think we can convince him to change his mind."

The directors shook their heads and sighed.

"When did you become so slow? Since Osborn won't change his mind, why don't we change Osborn?"

A dangerous gleam flashed in Donald's eyes.

"Kill Harry Osborn, and I will be the largest shareholder of the Osborn Group. No one in the shareholders' meeting can stop me from embezzling Osborn's shares. Then the Osborn Group will be ours."

"When the time comes, we can sell the Osborne Group to Roxxon. Not only will we earn tens of billions of dollars, but we can also keep our original positions. Roxxon promised me that they would not abolish the board of directors."

The directors looked at each other, and it seemed that there was no need to consider how to choose.

A few days later, Harry finally completed the overall framework design of the bionic human manufacturing technology and made several experimental central processing chips.

"The most important thing has been done, now it's time to consider another thing..."

Harry came to the exclusive elevator leading to the second-floor laboratory, and a green light automatically shot out from above, sweeping across his entire body.

Then an electronic synthesized sound rang out.

"ID: Harry Osborn - Clearance Level: Highest - Access granted."

The elevator door opened automatically.

Although he had made some mental preparations in advance, Harry was still shocked after seeing the dazzling array of "Green Goblin" technology.

The Green Goblin Armor, whose defense and shock absorption performance are not inferior to the Iron Man Suit, the Green Goblin Skateboard, the anti-gravity aircraft, and the powerful pumpkin bomb...

And the formula for the Green Devil Serum.

Ever since Captain America made his debut in World War II, the world has been swept by a super soldier fever. Every organization with people and money has tried to replicate the super soldier serum, and countless products have been derived from this, with the Green Goblin serum being one of them.

The strengthening effect of this serum is even better than that of Captain America, but it is suspected to have the side effect of amplifying extreme emotions.

As for Norman's second personality, it actually has little to do with the serum, but is related to a hell lord named Mephisto.

As early as when the Osborn Group was first established, its business was not going well and it was on the verge of bankruptcy almost every day. So Mephisto approached Norman to make a deal with him and granted the Osborn Group prosperity.

And the price, of course, is the soul.

From that day on, Norman's character became more and more unpredictable. His attitude towards people around him was hot and cold, sometimes kind and sometimes mean. The evil personality had already taken shape, and the injection of serum only accelerated its birth.

Although this is a matter of the main universe 616, it cannot be used to determine what the Green Goblin serum in this world is like.

But whether in comics or movies, almost all versions of Harry Osborn did not experience particularly serious side effects after using the Green Goblin Serum, and even if there was an impact, it was not significant.

Now, a question is put before Harry, should he inject himself with the Green Goblin serum?
