Chapter 43: Change of Era, Business plans for the new era

It had to be said that Tony was considerate. He was mindful of old feelings and knew how to be grateful.

Very few people knew that Tony would repay others.

Therefore, he created this suit of armor for Lu Yuan, even though he knew that Lu Yuan did not need it. It was his intention.

The battle suit was designed according to Lu Yuan’s Superman battle suit. It was almost the same except for the cloak.

It had a gold frame, and it was dyed dark blue with two large red S on the chest and back, respectively.

The difference was that this suit did not have a helmet like other battle suits.

“I guessed that you won’t like the helmet,” Tony’s observation was also meticulous. He had accurately guessed that Lu Yuan wouldn’t care to hide his identity and didn’t need the protection of a helmet, so he didn’t make it.

Lu Yuan nodded. He indeed didn’t need it, and he had nothing to fear.

“Speaking of which, there’s no point in giving me this thing. Why don’t you give me half of your good cars? You won’t be able to drive them anyway,” Lu Yuan said as he circled the suit and then looked at the good cars parked in the garage.

Tony rolled his eyes because Lu Yuan was really greedy.

However, he didn’t refuse. He just said, “Let’s talk about it after you get your driver’s license.”

Lu Yuan indeed did not have a driver’s license.

“Speaking of which, why did you suddenly think of giving me something?” Lu Yuan changed the topic and looked at Tony with a deeper meaning. He said with a smile that was not quite a smile, “I don’t believe you don’t have any motives.”

Tony thought that it was difficult, but he did have something to say. “Actually, I’ve thought about it. You’re right. As a weapons dealer, I have indeed developed many weapons with great lethality. Even if I didn’t kill those people, they died because of the weapons I made. So I want to change the company’s development prospects.”

Lu Yuan understood.

“So what do you want to get from me?” Lu Yuan sat aside and asked Tony what he wanted this time.

Tony didn’t know what Lu Yuan had and what he was willing to take out, so he could only tentatively say, “Why don’t you help me think of a way to grow the company. Moreover, this is your company as well.”

In other words, Tony’s shares were not taken out for nothing. He not only wanted to tie Lu Yuan with him but the company as well. This way, Lu Yuan had no choice but to help the company develop.

Lu Yuan did not feel that he was being used. The reason was simple. The current Stark Industries was his company, and he was also one of the major shareholders.

It was no longer about helping Tony. Instead, it was about helping his own company.

Well, he was still caught in the trap.

“Let me think,” Lu Yuan crossed his arms and began to ponder.

Tony’s eyes lit up. He even took the initiative to go to the refrigerator and open two bottles of beer.

Beer wasn’t Tony’s favorite drink because he thought it was cheap.

He loved champagne, whiskey, all kinds of red wine, sake, and white wine (A/N: I guess).

However, ever since Lu Yuan came, the situation changed. All of his good wines had been drunk by Lu Yuan. It wasn’t that his heart ached for money (he really loved money). It was just that Lu Yuan never got drunk. It would be a waste to give him an expensive wine anymore.

Lu Yuan seemed immune to drunkenness because he had automatically developed immunity against it.

After all, drunkenness was actually a kind of ethanol poisoning, which was commonly known as alcohol poisoning, which varied to different degrees. Ordinary drunkenness was nothing, only sleep, and drinking more water was needed.

However, this could still be considered a sign of poisoning, so Lu Yuan developed a corresponding immunity. Alcohol could still be absorbed, which meant that he could taste the wine but he won’t get drunk.

It had to be said that Doomsday was really cheating.

After dying once, he will not be harmed by the same attack again, and his body will adjust according to the surrounding environment.

For example, in a cold environment, as long as Lu Yuan was given enough time, he could even withstand the low temperature that could freeze the world.

The same went for heat. Not only the temperature of the sun, but even if that temperature was increased by several hundred million degrees Celsius, he could still slowly adapt.

He was simply invincible.

Perhaps he could have been killed when he had a weakness like Kryptonite.

However, the first thing he did after he was resurrected was to use kryptonite to stab himself, and then he became immune to it.

Now, it was almost impossible to kill him.

That was a long story.

Lu Yuan took the beer and drank the whole bottle at once.

Tony had no choice but to take another trip. This time, he directly brought all of them.

After Lu Yuan drank a few more bottles, he snapped his fingers: “I remembered.”

Tony couldn’t be bothered to drink. He put the bottle aside and looked at Lu Yuan in front of him. “What? Say it quickly.”

“Smartphone,” Lu Yuan told the idea he had just thought of with a mysterious face.

However, Tony was disappointed as he thought that it would be something amazing because smartphones had already been invented.

The so-called smartphone referred to a device with an independent system, memory, and operations. The specific details were too long. In short, the button machines used in this era were actually smartphones even though they did not have a touch screen.

However, the current network was not as developed and advanced as the post-4G era.

Even iPhone 4 would not be released until June 8, 2010, two years later.

The more Lu Yuan thought about it, the more excited he became. Then, he simply clapped his hands, which scared Tony.

But before Tony could say anything, he saw that a new thing slowly appeared in Lu Yuan’s palm.

It was the size of a palm, and its body was thin and light. It had a screen that was similar to the cell phone.

Lu Yuan, who had already reached the fifth dimension, actually used his power to change reality to create the most advanced smartphone he had ever seen out of thin air.

It was a full-screen machine with a back that was made of glass. When Tony carefully received it, he felt like he was holding a piece of art in his hand.

Lu Yuan told him about how to use it as well as the benefits of smartphones one by one.

Unfortunately, the network was not yet developed and wireless network signals were not popular.

In addition, the APP era had not arrived yet, and it needed Jarvis’ help to connect to the internet so it could not display its advantages more comprehensively.

But even so, Tony was already stunned.

“Once this thing is born, Stark Industries will lead the world into a new era. And Tony, you cannot count on smartphones to make much money. Don’t forget that the real money is the communication fee. We have to grab a share of the network at the very least.”

“What is going to make money in the new era? Arms? Guns and ammunition?”

“NO NO NO, traffic is king. Tony, open an online shop with me.”
