The knight in the big world of American TV series

Chapter 2394

The advanced technology of S.H.I.E.L.D. is another sore point for the US government!
Because these intangible assets are now nowhere to be found!
Anyway, it's not in the hands of the US government!

For example, the Pym particle, which is still unknown to people!

Pym particles are subatomic particles discovered and named after Dr. Hank Pym. These particles can alter the mass and size of living organisms, shrinking or enlarging objects at the atomic level while maintaining their physical abilities and strength. As the core technology of the Ant-Man suit, Pym particles grant the wearer the ability to freely change their shape and are a key element for entering the quantum realm.

This thing was the result of Dr. Pym's research during his time at S.H.I.E.L.D.... However, because Dr. Pym discovered that Howard Stark was secretly replicating his Pym Particles, he left S.H.I.E.L.D.

Before leaving, he even deliberately destroyed all research materials related to the Pym Particles.

Unfortunately, he encountered Howard Stark, who, like Tony Stark, secretly stole Dr. Pym's research, allowing S.H.I.E.L.D. to preserve this scientific achievement. However, due to Howard's sudden death and concerns about Dr. Pym's attitude, S.H.I.E.L.D. did not use this advanced technology on a large scale.

In addition, there are many alien technologies.

S.H.I.E.L.D. retained a lot of the Chitauri technology.

The Skrulls possess even more technology, given Nick Fury's previously extremely close relationship with them. Even something as seemingly beyond human technological capabilities as the airship was ultimately developed with Skrull assistance. It is also thanks to Skrull technology that the airship can be maintained and serviced at minimal cost.

Unfortunately, all of these things disappeared when the government forcibly took over S.H.I.E.L.D.!

Including various containment items that S.H.I.E.L.D. once possessed!

The most famous of these are the remains of the Kree and their spaceships!

In the movie, Phil Coulson was killed by Loki, and then S.H.I.E.L.D. used GH325 to revive him!

GH325 is a resurrection drug developed by S.H.I.E.L.D. based on technology from the Kree alien race, and belongs to the "Tahiti Project." This drug achieves its resurrection function through injection combined with memory replacement technology, and has successfully resurrected six agents, including Phil Coulson.

These items did not originally belong to S.H.I.E.L.D.; they should have belonged to the US government, but were handed over to S.H.I.E.L.D. for research by the US government.

Unfortunately... as S.H.I.E.L.D. studied them, they started to take them for themselves.

Strictly speaking, it is Nick Fury who believes this.

He stubbornly believed that these dangerous things were far too dangerous in the hands of others, and were only truly safe under the watchful eyes of S.H.I.E.L.D.... or rather, under his supervision.

Unfortunately... this guy is like a crow landing on a black pig; he only sees what others are black on, but not what he himself is black on. He's the most reckless in abusing containment materials.

For example, the GH325 mentioned above can be described as simple and crude in its application. They simply extract brain matter from the Kree and then inject it into the human body as an implant... As for saving the person's life, that was purely accidental!
Coulson was previously in charge of this project... after all, he was Nick Fury's most trusted confidant, and Nick Fury would entrust him with many secret projects.

Coulson selected six terminally ill SHIELD agents as participants in the project... Its initial purpose was not to save lives, although at the beginning they did discover certain active substances in Kree brain extracts that had never appeared on Earth before, which could repair damage at the cellular level.

But no one knew the specific applications of them... Those six agents were just the first batch of tools.

After all, previous experiments on mice had all ended in failure. Although the mice injected with the substance initially showed signs of wound healing, they all died very quickly.

To put it bluntly, they're just making use of waste!

Because nobody knows what the final outcome will be.

The experimental results were fairly good; their illness stopped after each injection of GH325. However, the patients began to show signs of mental confusion, including writing with symbols.

While this technology can promote regeneration, it can cause a range of psychological problems, and the recipients will suffer immense pain during the treatment process.

Those so-called symbols are actually the memories of that Kree!
In a sense, their brutal method was essentially resurrecting the Kree in the patient's body... only they didn't know it. Furthermore, because the pain would severely impact the patient's mental state, S.H.I.E.L.D. used an even simpler and more brutal method to prevent any accidents.

That is to completely erase the memories of all test subjects.

The six agents had completely forgotten their past experiences... none of them remembered their previous life as SHIELD agents when they were released, and their personal backgrounds recorded their past deaths.

In short, S.H.I.E.L.D., or rather Nick Fury, was not as cautious as he imagined.

He was like a clueless child, brandishing a bomb and thinking he was so cool.

Even so, in his most disheveled state, he still managed to transfer those rare assets.

After he died, virtually no one knew where these things were.

The US government has never given up on finding those assets, but unfortunately, it has had little success.

This almost made the US government vomit blood.

……

With the announcement of the US government's air fleet plan.

For a time, the development of God-given Island became a hot topic around the world!

Since the Indians and Daiying didn't get any advantage at Dongda University, they immediately turned to hoping that their American daddy could take them out to play!
If it were the old America, they would never have bothered with those two bastards.

After all, the United States has a history of being known for its lack of manners!

The most typical example is stealing oil in Syria!

The US military's oil theft operations in Syria have become increasingly rampant, with convoys of oil thieves stretching as far as the eye can see. Data released by the Syrian government shows that over 83% of Syria's daily oil production is stolen by the US in this manner. This exploitative and ruthless behavior, combining theft and robbery, reflects the US's hegemonic actions of military intervention in other countries' internal affairs and its capitalist and military-industrial complex's "business strategy" of plundering the world. Even targeting a mere tens of thousands of barrels of oil produced daily in Syria demonstrates that the US, amidst the current turbulent international energy market, is resorting to any means necessary to strengthen its control over resources and markets. The US is precisely the force behind the sudden strain on energy supply. To maintain its hegemony, it has repeatedly provoked geopolitical confrontations and continuously increased sanctions against Russia, severely disrupting the international energy market. Under these sanctions, the international market is deeply concerned about Russia's future supply capacity and scale, leading to market expectations of tighter supply and higher prices, resulting in the current high international oil prices. Meanwhile, prices for energy commodities such as natural gas and coal, in which Russia wields significant influence in regional markets, have increased three to four times compared to the same period last year. This situation has presented the United States, a country adept at exploiting chaos, with an opportunity to weaken other nations. While instigating its allies to impose sanctions, the US has been secretly buying up Russian oil at exorbitant prices, and, relying on its military hegemony, openly stealing oil from Syria for its own enrichment—its actions are becoming increasingly blatant.

Behind the "oil theft incident" lies the sinister face of the United States, using its war machine to reap selfish profits worldwide. Repeatedly planting spittle and creating unrest severely hinders the development and regional cooperation of various countries, forcing some to turn to the US. The result is that anyone who becomes dependent on the US military and politically will have to pay the price for America's selfish interests and consolidation of its hegemony. From the Kosovo War's devastating blow to the nascent Euro, to the long-term non-traditional security threats arising from wars in Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, and Syria, and now the Russia-Ukraine conflict, it's all the same formula, the same flavor. Data shows that from 2017 to 2021, although global arms trade volume decreased by 4.6% compared to 2012-2016, US arms exports bucked the trend, increasing by 14% and rising from 32% to 39% of the global market share. The US military, which bombards various locations, "comes for profit and leaves when there is no profit," and even after withdrawing its troops, its self-serving and harmful hand will not stop. The US government's plan to seize $70 billion of Afghanistan's foreign exchange reserves, which will severely undermine Afghanistan's economic recovery and further exacerbate the humanitarian crisis in Afghanistan, is the best proof of this.

Afghanistan, a country ravaged by war, has long suffered from instability and poverty. Yet, the United States has unilaterally disposed of Afghanistan's $7 billion in foreign exchange reserves. Under the orders of the US president, $35 billion was used to compensate the families of the victims of the 9/11 attacks, while the remaining $35 billion was planned to be returned to Afghanistan in installments. This act is undoubtedly a serious violation of Afghan sovereignty and a blatant plunder of the Afghan people's hard-earned money. The Afghan people are already living in dire straits; this foreign exchange is their hope for rebuilding their homes and restoring their lives, yet it has been so easily squandered and distributed by the United States. This action by the United States undoubtedly exposes its selfishness and disregard for the sovereignty of other countries.

Given the immense benefits of God-given Island, the Americans would have definitely tried to monopolize it in the past... After all, even before the tsunami, the United States was in a state of continuous decline, which led to their policies becoming increasingly aggressive and domineering, as they needed more benefits to satisfy the insatiable interest groups within their country.

But now, the Americans have readily accepted the arrival of Dai Ying and the Indians... It's strange, really.

When facing Dongda University, Daiying and A-San always try to gain an advantage, as if they would be at a disadvantage if they didn't gain any advantage.

But when facing the United States.

Even a weakened America has become more reasonable...

Both countries provided substantial funding, yet the United States surprisingly dominated the distribution of the profits!
Both countries are even willing to invest in the United States and build factories there!

It's understandable that Daiying is doing this. After all, Daiying only has some financial industries left, and it still needs to invest. If it doesn't invest in the US, then it can only invest in the EU or the US... but neither of those offers any advantage. So investing in the US is understandable... but what about India?
They are emerging markets.

What they lacked most was investment, but unexpectedly, they were willing to invest in the United States.

Everyone was initially puzzled.

But the answer to this question was soon found.

The United States has begun selling some weapons production lines to India, while also granting licenses!

This has always been what the Indians wanted most.

Since the US withdrew from India's arsenal, India, having acquired countless World War II weapons, suddenly felt invincible. India claims to be the strongest military power in Asia, a confidence perhaps stemming from 1957 when it purchased the HMS Hercules aircraft carrier from Britain for £1500 million, becoming the first Asian nation to possess an aircraft carrier after World War II. However, over time, India's military overconfidence has gradually devolved into a farce in international arms purchases; one could even say that India has become a "sucker" in the international arms market.

After gaining independence, India did achieve some remarkable military successes, particularly in acquiring aircraft carriers. In 1957, India purchased the HMS Hercules from Britain, making it the first Asian country to possess an aircraft carrier and giving it a military advantage over its neighbors. However, India's military industrial self-sufficiency has lagged far behind its expanding military ambitions. The domestically built aircraft carrier, the INS Vikrant, which took 40 years to build, still lacks effective combat capability. Furthermore, the Arjun main battle tank, developed and improved domestically in India, has suffered from frequent breakdowns in combat, sometimes even malfunctioning without enemy fire. This phenomenon of "Indian products being consistently substandard" not only exposes serious flaws in India's military industrial system but also forces the country to rely heavily on foreign arms purchases in the international arms market.

Since its own military industry is inadequate, India naturally turned its attention to the international arms market. As the world's third-largest military spender, India's annual military expenditure exceeds $700 billion, a large portion of which is used for purchasing military equipment from abroad. However, India's path of purchasing foreign equipment has been fraught with difficulties and irony.

In 1957, India purchased the British aircraft carrier HMS Hercules for £15 million. Although the carrier had been in service for three years, it was still a source of pride for India. However, in 1985, India bought the British aircraft carrier HMS Hermes, which had been in service for over 30 years, for £50 million. The carrier broke down en route to its return voyage, beginning a long period of repairs. The carrier spent far less time at sea than in the repair shop, becoming a laughing stock in India's military procurement history.

What's even more absurd is that India managed to snag the "Admiral Gorshkov" aircraft carrier from Russia for a mere $1. However, Russia subsequently used the pretext of modifying the deck to keep demanding more money from India. Ultimately, India spent over $30 billion and 10 years to finally bring the carrier home. This seemingly "good deal" of "buying fighter jets and getting an aircraft carrier for free" ultimately became a major pitfall in India's military procurement history.

At the same time, Indians are very fascinated by so-called 'domestic' weapons.

Yes, by "domestic," they mean anything produced on their land.

So as long as the production line reaches India, it's made in China!

Therefore, they are extremely eager to purchase the production lines and production licenses for those high-tech weapons!
