Chapter 11 Pepper's Request
"Obadiah Stani, chief operating officer of Stark, fell to his death in Stark Industrial Park three days ago."
"Based on official findings."
"The death of Obadiah Stane was not caused by others, but committed suicide out of fear of crime."
"Police announcement."
"Stani has repeatedly conducted arms transactions with foreign terrorist forces in his own name."
"And committed multiple murders, interference in other countries' internal affairs and other serious crimes."
"Including the attack on Stark Group President Tony Stark a few months ago, it was also attributed to Obadiah Stanislav."
"For more detailed reports, we will now contact the reporters at the front..."
Leon posed in the hall, watching the news and stuffing a piece of cheese pizza into his mouth.
"It's great... Now the stock that just went up after I showed up at the company the day before yesterday has to fall again. It's like a roller coaster."
Leon was angry at himself.
"Although this has no impact on me, I still feel very sorry for the investors who support Stark."
He thought for a while, opened Twitter, and posted an update.
——The Obadiah incident was just an accident, and the Stark Group is inseparable from evil.
Please continue to believe in Stark Group and support Stark Group's stocks. You will definitely be able to wait until the day you return with a full load. Stark never disappoints his supporters.
With a picture of leftover pizza on the table.
So a few seconds later, the comment area under his feed exploded.
Hundreds of scolding comments appeared immediately, as if buying a house on Twitter.
[Look at that Obadiah, such a person can still be the chief operating officer, Stark Group takes date pills! 】
【It’s all bullshit! I bought stocks when Tony Stark came back, and in the blink of an eye he shut down the weapons department and I lost half of my fortune.
Leon Stark showed up after half a year and I bought stocks again, but two days later it was revealed that the COO was a super criminal?
I can already see myself begging on the streets of Los Angeles in a month!
Damn it Stark, you made me lose everything! 】
Then more comments popped up every second, all of which were disloyal investors crying that they had lost their wits before buying Stark stock.
Lyon looked at the comment section with 999+ comments in one minute and felt a little ashamed.
"Well, it seems that Stark's shareholders have their own ideas. Forget it, I believe everyone will have a bright future, be safe and happy."
At this time, Pepper came over with coffee: "I thought I heard you praying for stock investors just now?"
"Actually, it's not..." Leon looked at Pepper's expression and had a bad feeling.
But Pepper went on talking alone.
"To be honest, Leon, if you really want them not to suffer too much, you should go and call up Tony who has been missing for three days now!"
"Then you go back to your own company's chair and make good money instead of leaving everything to me!"
Pepper gets a little manic when she talks about her job because the weight on her shoulders is so heavy.
"Tony doesn't know what he's doing. Obadiah has committed so many crimes and deserves death, and you are at home basking in the sun every day. How can I do so much work alone?"
She complained very fast: "Stark Industries, Stark Network, Stark Electronics Technology, even if I have three heads, I can't handle so many things!!"
"And you, Leon, you still have time to pray for the investors!"
The more Pepper talked, the angrier he became, and he pushed the coffee in his hand to Leon: "Oh my god, now that I'm sifting through it, I realize how crazy I've been these days!"
"Leon, I ask you to tell Tony that if he doesn't come out of that damn laboratory, I will resign!"
"And you! Leon, my boy, if you don't manage your own Internet company, I will also resign!"
After saying that, Pepper angrily warned Leon with serious eyes, turned around and clicked out the door on her high heels.
She had to go to that damn class again.
Leon opened his mouth on the sofa. He wanted to say a few nice words to make Pepper persist.
But... it seems that it is really too much to leave all the decision-making work of the three companies to Pepper?
He scratched his head: "Maybe I should go back to the company... No, how could I even think about going to work? Damn it."
"What I should do is... let Lao Qiao stop taking vacation and go back to work! Yes, that's it!"
Leon clapped his hands and asked Jarvis: "Jarvis, is Joe Bush still on vacation? You inform him and let him go back to work as soon as possible!"
"I'm sorry, Master Lyon." Jarvis said, "In fact, Mr. Jobsch's vacation just ended yesterday, and he has returned to the company at four o'clock this morning."
"Four o'clock? Four o'clock in the morning?" Leon exclaimed, "It turns out I misunderstood. Old Qiao is really the best president in the world."
"If I have the opportunity in the future, I will definitely establish a World Outstanding CEO Award and award it to Lao Qiao every year."
"You said...since Old Qiao is already at his post, Pepper won't be angry anymore, right?"
This question made Jarvis silent for a few seconds: "Master Lyon, I'm afraid not."
"Because Mr. Jobsch is only in charge of Stark electronic technology and handles some of the Stark network work on his behalf, Miss Pepper is still doing the other work."
Leon thought thoughtfully: "That's right. This was indeed the arrangement when I left half a year ago, but Tony would also participate in the management of the company at that time."
"Jarvis, do you have any suggestions?"
"Master Lyon, in order to prevent Miss Pepper from resigning, I suggest that you return to work temporarily and wait until you find a successor president, then go home and continue to bask in the sun."
Leon immediately shook his head: "That's not possible. Sunbathing is the most important thing, so we can't delay it!"
"Besides, I've been doing more than just basking in the sun these past few days. You also know what I've been up to."
Three days ago, Leon asked Jarvis to collect all the fighting tutorials on the Internet.
After these few days of study, he has mastered most of the fighting techniques.
Jeet Kune Do, Muay Thai, Krav Maga, Judo, Mixed Martial Arts, Bajiquan...
However, the more he learned, the more Leon found that his control over power had become stronger, but his combat effectiveness had hardly increased.
This makes fighting skills quite useless.
Think about the world we live in now.
Anyone he can hit can be killed with just one slap.
If you can't beat him, then you may not be able to resist even one of the opponent's moves even if you try your best.
Only when fighting an evenly matched enemy can these fighting techniques be of use.
But there are very few people who can evenly match him.
Odin counts as one, Purple Potato counts as one, Captain Marvel counts as one, and...there are really only a handful of them.
"But your fighting skills have reached their upper limit, and there is no point in continuing to practice."
Jarvis suggested again: "So why not go back to work, which will not only make Miss Pepper happy, but you can also have a fulfilling day."
"Jarvis, why do you seem to want me to go to work so much?" Leon was stunned for a moment.
What came to his mind: "Ah, I see, you are protesting that I dragged you into the water in front of Tony three days ago."
"Well, Jarvis, you still say that you have no subjective thoughts, but you have obviously begun to have the emotions of human beings to hold grudges!"
Jarvis' light ball flashed on the screen: "Master Lyon, I will not do anything harmful to you."
"But you will encourage me to do things that delay my becoming stronger and make me unhappy." Leon spread his hands.
He thought for a moment: "Well, let me go down and call Tony up first, and then go find a president for the company. Then all the worries will be gone."
"As you wish." Jarvis was still very considerate.
