Chapter 43 What an oriental-style palace!
Su Chen couldn't help but recall the splendor of the palace of the Chinese Dragon Kingdom in the past.
Then passing through the main hall, there are slender corridors and corridors. The totems on the columns are lifelike, and the exquisite window lattices cast a mottled light and shadow.
The inner area is even more magnificent, with Chinese-style decorative paintings and tapestries everywhere.
"Genos actually built me an oriental-style palace!"
Su Chen admired sincerely.
"It all depends on your design. I'm just doing my best."
Genos said modestly.
"Genos, stop being so modest!"
"You did a great job. This palace is perfect."
Su Chen nodded with satisfaction.
Just as Su Chen was admiring the palace, James' letter arrived.
The letter said that an American industrialist, Howard Stark, was interested in joining the Su family, hoping to do business more safely under the Su family's protection.
"What? Howard Stark?"
Holy shit! It appeared!
It seems that new characters from the Marvel world have appeared in America at this time.
This Howard is the father of the future Iron Man!
Judging from the time, this was almost the time when he established his own Stark Industries!
"Quick! Reply quickly and make an appointment with Mr. Howard immediately!"
Su Chen immediately replied in agreement. You know how could Su Chen miss the opportunity to win over the future Iron Man.
Cooperating with the father of Iron Man will definitely be of great help to Su's establishment in the United States.
In this way, Su's technological advantage in the United States can be established!
Su Chen also had a general understanding of Howard Stark.
This industrialist is not only a skilled businessman, but also a talented inventor.
After receiving James' letter, Su Chen thought it necessary to meet Mr. Stark in person.
After sailing for several days, Su Chen arrived at Manhattan Island in New York.
Following the address given by James, Su Chen came to an upscale community where New York's political and business elites gathered.
Stark's mansion was very magnificent. Su Chen asked his men to show their identities to the guards and soon got the chance to meet.
"Hello, Mr. Stark, I'm Su Chen."
Su Chen smiled and shook hands with Stark.
"Please call me Howard."
Stark also smiled kindly,
The two sat down, and Stark did not look as heroic as imagined...
Instead, he looks a little bloated and reeks of money.
"I know that Mr. Su Chen's influence has spread all over London..."
"And you also have a keen eye for the land of America!"
"To be honest, I hope to join your army and seek asylum..."
"After all, the power in this land is extremely chaotic right now. I don't know..."
Stark is a smart man and knows that joining forces with the Su family will be of great benefit to his career.
"Oh?"
"Mr. Stark, you are a businessman, I think you should know it very well!"
"The most important thing in business is win-win!"
"But in my opinion, your joining will not bring any benefits to the Su family!"
"You should know that my Su family is at its peak at this time."
"What kind of conditions do you think you can offer that my Su family will accept?"
Su Chen's words were very sharp.
You know, with the current strength of the Stark family, joining the Su family probably won't bring much significance to the Su family.
Su Chen made it very clear that if you want to join, you must show some sincerity!
Although this Stark is the father of the future Iron Man, and the future Stark Industries is also a famous industry in the United States!
But he is obviously not qualified to negotiate with Su Chen at this moment!
“Well…”
These words really stumped old Howard.
"Forget it! Let me tell you about it!"
"Join our Su family, and your businesses in America, including those in London, will be supported by the Su family in the future!"
Su Chen's words carry a lot of weight. You have to know that the Su family not only has advantages in economy and military power.
More importantly, the Su family has already infiltrated various political parties!
As a businessman, I am very clear about the pros and cons.
"As for your initial start-up capital, our Su family will naturally help you with most of it!"
"My request is simple! The Su family must own 51% of Stark Industries!"
"We will not interfere with the development of Stark Industries, but we will take control of Stark!"
"Of course, we will also provide sufficient funding!"
"If you have thought it through, you can tell me!"
Su Chen said this and looked at Howard.
Howard was obviously hesitant at this moment.
"You only have this chance today!"
"I don't think I'll give you a second chance."
Su Chen also stood up and was about to leave.
This is also Su Chen's strategy to win people's hearts! Su Chen has always been just right in grasping human nature.
"Don't! Mr. Su Chen! I promise you!"
When Howard saw Su Chen was about to leave, he quickly stood up to stop him.
In this way, the two quickly reached a preliminary cooperation intention.
Su Chen said that he would first purchase a manor in New York for Stark to use as a gift for their cooperation.
Stark promised to apply his latest technological achievements to Su's military industrial enterprises.
He already has some new ideas.
Stark warmly invited Su Chen to stay in his mansion for a few days, and the two spent a few happy days together.
Su Chen also visited Stark's factory and workshop, and was amazed by those rare mechanical devices.
"This is just the beginning. I will contribute more inventions to the advancement of human science and technology. Although it is still a little behind now."
Stark enthusiastically introduced his various ideas.
Of course Su Chen also agreed with it!
Before leaving, Su Chen told James to start buying a house in New York, and at the same time to allocate some troops to protect Stark's safety.
After Su Chen returned triumphantly from the negotiation, the manor became lively again after a long time.
James and Genos came to greet them, and Jenny and Ilmi also came to greet them one after another.
Su Chen responded one by one to understand the family situation during this period.
"You've been gone for several months. Your family must have missed you very much."
Genos said with a smile.
"Yes."
Jenny on the side also joked.
"Okay, okay, I'm back now. You all have worked hard."
While everyone was talking and laughing, Jack came hurriedly with a serious look on his face.
"Not good. I just received an urgent report from the front line. The blood clan is secretly mobilizing a large number of troops and seems to be planning some action. The situation is not favorable to us."
Su Chen's face changed when he heard this.
"It seems that the blood clan wants to take advantage of my absence to do something bad! Jack, immediately send out orders to mobilize all the death squads to prepare for battle. I will personally lead the army to wipe out the blood clan!"
Su Chen immediately gave the order.
"I think we need to be more cautious about this matter!"
"You know, we are still in alliance with the vampires."
