Transforming American comics starts with a leap of faith

Chapter 18 Add a BUFF to Tony
America's wealthy classes seem to be particularly keen on philanthropy.

And the richer the more enthusiastic.

They will actively participate in various charitable fundraising activities and donate generously. Some of the richest of them even advocate naked donation and take the lead in demonstrating.

The so-called naked donation is to donate all property to charity organizations free of charge after death, so as to contribute to the redistribution of wealth.

It is the conscience of the capital world!When others knew about it, they would give a thumbs up and praise: Gao Yi!

But the reality is of course not so rosy.

The nature of capitalists determines that they can't do this kind of thing at all.

The vast majority of charitable organizations to which huge amounts of wealth flow exist in the form of funds, and the management power of the funds is still in the hands of the rich. Some taxes in America can be avoided in the name of charity.

Mainly an exaggerated inheritance tax.

And general charitable activities can also help them launder money, get rid of bad assets, cash out and so on.

What is there not to be famous and profitable.

However, Tony Stark doesn't care about all of the above.

On the one hand, it's because he is so rich, on the other hand... Stark Industries' main partner is the Ministry of Defense!

Their relationship with the power class in America has been relatively obscure.

From the point of view of Tony Stark himself, he will not fight for these petty profits and hypocrisy.

Tony, who inherited his father Howard's talent for craftsmanship, was a true genius.

At the age of four, he rubbed the circuit board with his hands, at the age of six he rubbed the engine with his hands, at the age of 17 he graduated from MIT with No.

Eighteen years on, he's taken Stark Industries to new heights.

The proud son of heaven is nothing more than that.

This is a person who is extremely narcissistic and proud, yet qualified to be so proud.

Standing in his position, there is no need to care about what other people think.

Such a person who came to participate in the charity auction naturally already had a definite goal.

Withdrawing his observing gaze, Su Ge lowered his eyelids, suppressing the fluctuations in his eyes.

When others look at Tony Stark at this time, they are more contemptuous of his life style, with a little unspeakable envy and jealousy, and some are pure admiration or hatred.

When Su Ge looked at Tony, it was like looking at a walking ore of exclamation value.

Withdrawing his attention, Su Ge knew that the first round of auction had finally come to the grand finale that he had carefully prepared.

The staff slowly placed the lot on the booth, and the red silk was untied, revealing a stone slab in front of everyone.

Moderator: "This exhibit was provided free of charge by the Continental Hotel Group. It was excavated when it built the hotel foundation in New Mexico. It is 3 meters long, 2 meters wide, and about 20 centimeters thick. It is made of marble."

Speaking of this, the host smiled and bought a pass.

The people present were whispering to each other.

"I believe everyone will be curious, why a stone slab can be placed at the end of this round, please take a look!"

Su Ge noticed that several people, including Tony, immediately concentrated their attention.

Everyone can see that the high light is applied, and the slate presents extremely exquisite lines.

Moderator: "After our research and identification, this stone slab has a history of more than 6000 years, and it is likely to come from an undiscovered primitive civilization. It is not Aztec or Maya. It is a brand new field with extremely High research and collection value."

Someone chimed in: "Why didn't you explain that this is a weapon blueprint?"

This bizarre speech made people turn their heads and look around.

"..."

Su Ge also looked over, and the person who spoke was a middle-aged man with a gloomy complexion and a sick look.

He frowned, Norman Osborn...

The host explained with a smile: "Mr. Osborne's statement, in fact, has no clear conclusion, because it is really hard to believe that there will be blueprints for electromagnetic weapons on the earth thousands of years ago. Still using such a primitive way engraved in stone. We prefer other explanations..."

Without listening to the host's nonsense, Su Ge showed a smile on the corner of his mouth. He noticed that not only Tony and Norman Osborn, but also the old knockoff businessman Justin Hammer seemed very interested.

In fact, this is not difficult to understand, because... there are aliens in this universe.

The existence of extraterrestrial civilizations is no secret to anyone who knew about the Ronan the Accuser invasion in 1995.

It is naturally impossible for primitive people 6000 years ago to have the blueprint of this electromagnetic weapon, and if there is, it is likely to be a relic of an alien civilization.

This will no doubt interest some people.

Like Tony.

The auction will start soon.

"The base price is 500 million, and each increase is no less than 20. Let's start!"

The venue was a little quiet for a while, because the value of this thing is really hard to judge.

It was Tony who moved first, and he said casually, "Let me start, 2000 million."

Norman Osborn said sternly: "2200 million."

The two bigwigs who mastered cutting-edge technology entered the arena, and the atmosphere suddenly became warmer. From time to time, there were tens of thousands of attempts.

Su Ge smiled and asked the waiter for a glass of juice, and watched the show.

It is a pity that the legal age is 21 to drink alcoholic beverages, otherwise this kind of scene should really have a glass of champagne.

Most of the tentative bidders left the arena at the speed of light after encountering strong resistance, and in the end it was the three really interested bigwigs who competed.

Justin Hammer drooped his face: "3500 million."

Tony Stark raised his sign without even looking at him: "I offer 4000 million."

There was some whispering in the venue for a while, and I felt that these people were a little bit angry.

Norman Osborn still had that poker face: "4200 million."

The most imaginary Hammer was the first to give up the competition. He felt that there was no need to spend so much money on a possibility.

Tony still looked like he was fooling around: "5000 million."

The North version of Osborne had a gloomy face, Harry Osborn next to him, who was also Peter's future friend, seemed to mutter, the old Osborne squinted his eyes and gave up the competition.

Su Ge heard what Harry said.

"spendthrift!"

Smiling, Su Ge felt the complicated state of mind of the rich second generation when they met even more outrageous rich second generations.

Old Osborn probably also felt that... fighting with a famous playboy would be a bit of a bargain. After all, he is only interested in weapons now, not too enthusiastic about them.

In the end, this not-so-easy slate fell into the hands of the person who didn't take money seriously, and it was sold for a sky-high price of 5000 million, which is close to the sum of the previous auction prices of 21 items.

Tony Stark didn't stay any longer after the host dropped the hammer, and left with a style of spending a lot of money.

The slate will then be sent to Stark Tower, waiting for its observation and research.

This is also the scene that Su Ge is most looking forward to seeing.
With one touch, the hero template imports to Tony Stark, and the walking wow-sucker goes to work for him!
You know this template is not cheap!A full 225 million!
[Guardians of the Future]

But Su Ge believes that it is definitely worth the money!
With a weird smile on the corner of his mouth, he stood up with everyone in the venue.

The first round of auctions has ended, and the subsequent auctions are all unserious things, such as shoes worn by a certain celebrity, which will be held at the party, which is considered an addition.

Then there's Don Juan's dream social vanity fair.

The old man beside him asked, "Master, are you still going to the next party?"

Su Ge's tone was helpless: "Winston..."

"I know, I know, you don't like this kind of occasion." Winston laughed, looking like a harmless old man, and he continued: "But you might as well participate this time, maybe there will be surprises."

"Ok?"
