Chapter 160 Special Brothers and Sisters

That night, Leon returned to his shameless daily life.

The next morning, at the dinner table.

Yelena and Shirley buried their heads in eating.

This pair of friends, regardless of age difference, seemed to be competing to see whose cheeks were bigger, and their mouths were as bulging as hamsters from eating so much.

It was just a nutritious breakfast of bread and eggs, but they ate it like a feast.

Leon took a shower, dried his hair and sat next to Natasha.

"Is there any recent situation at the company?" he asked casually.

Natasha looked at the projected news in her hand while chewing bread: "Except that the boss has not shown up once for the entire month, everything is normal."

Leon seemed not to hear the subtext: “That would be great.”

Then he looked at Yelena again and asked the girl's face which immediately became stiff.

"Where's Chaoying Company? Don't tell me you're only focused on making that movie."

“Well…” Yelena looked away guiltily, “After all, the company only has two superhero IPs, so making a movie like this is actually…”

“Hmm?” Leon raised his eyebrows, “I’ll give you another chance to reorganize your words.”

"I, I mean!" Yelena shuddered, "It's all Tony Stark's fault, Boss, it's all his fault, he shot all the movies!"

Natasha next to her slapped her forehead, looking defeated.

"Yelena, Leon is asking about something other than the movie." Natasha sometimes really couldn't do anything about her sister.

He is usually quite smart, but when he meets Leon, his brain becomes a single-threaded processor.

"Oh, oh, oh!" Yelena made a sound like a rooster crowing, "Other fields are also developing very well."

She counted on her fingers and said: "The company's market has spread all over the world.

Annual revenue from peripheral products is expected to exceed 30 billion US dollars.

However, there has been no progress in signing new heroes.

After all, there are only two superheroes so far.

Speaking of which, the Men in Black can also be considered a superhero team.

Can we also sell Men in Black merchandise?"

Thirty billion dollars in annual revenue was about what Lyon had initially expected.

The reason why the annual income is so considerable.

This is because Superman and Iron Man peripherals have been distributed in various markets around the world, and there are almost no pirates participating in the competition.

Without these prerequisites, no matter how popular the IP is, it would be impossible to sell so much in a year.

For example, the Pokémon from his previous life.

Such a popular IP has earned 100 billion US dollars in just over 20 years.

But if its market restrictions and pirated goods problems are solved.

The revenue of 100 billion can definitely be multiplied several times.

"Apart from the movie, you can decide how to operate other aspects. This company was established to provide funds to the Men in Black and make you self-sufficient." Lyon said.

"Oh, I get it, boss!" Yelena nodded like a chicken pecking at rice.

"What about the men in black? Have those people kidnapped by Hydra been sent back to their original places?" Leon asked again.

"Basically, they have all returned to their families, but there are still some special ones."

Natasha changed her tone and said, "Some people who were kidnapped by Hydra have identified with Hydra because of brainwashing and other reasons."

“If we let these people go, they might become the seeds of the new Hydra.”

"But if we kill them all, it would be too cruel. After all, they haven't done anything. They were just kidnapped and brainwashed."

“So after we discussed it, we used the Red House’s technology to de-brainwash them.”

"Now this group of people has begun to gradually return to normal."

"After we de-brainwash them one by one and send them back to their places of origin, we will conduct a long period of observation."

Leon drank milk: "Good job!"

"But..." Natasha had another twist, but this time she was a little hesitant.

"But what?" Leon took another bite of bread.

"Among these people, there is a pair of siblings. They were not brainwashed, but they voluntarily joined Hydra after being kidnapped."

"You specifically mentioned these two people. Is there something special about them?" Leon really has no good impression of Hydra.

"They are from Sokovia. When they were ten years old, their parents died from a missile produced by Stark..."

Natasha paused, "After that, the brothers and sisters could only survive in the war-torn Sokovia. They joined Hydra to seek revenge on Stark."

"Sokovia..." Leon stopped chewing.

A pair of siblings, whose parents died in Stark's missile bombing, and they took the initiative to join Hydra.

This can only be Scarlet Witch Wanda and Quicksilver Pietro.

"Have the men in black brainwashed them?" Leon's expression was a little silent.

"Not yet. They are scheduled to be in the group tomorrow."

Natasha bit her lip.

"They are actually very similar to us, Yelena."

"We all had to face some cruel facts when we were young."

"If you have no objection... after brainwashing them, I would like to give them some proper compensation," Natasha said.

Leon didn't answer immediately.

He thought for a few seconds and shook his head: "There is no need to brainwash them. They don't really agree with Hydra's ideology. They just want to use Hydra to take revenge on me and Tony."

"You know them?" Natasha was surprised.

Leon pointed to his ear and made up an excuse: “I heard it.”

"Let the man in black release the brother and sister. Stark really owes them."

"Then... arrange a place for them to live and provide them with identification, and give them 100 million, no, 10 million US dollars as compensation. Too much money will only make them wary."

Natasha didn't understand this time: "Are you sure you want to give so much?"

"Of course, the money will be deducted from my account."

Leon drank the milk in one gulp: "But you have to tell them again."

"Obadiah sold all the missiles in Sokovia, and that guy tried to kill me and Tony a few months ago. He is the culprit."

Natasha had a strange expression on her face: "If I remember correctly, Obadiah committed suicide out of fear of punishment?"

"You remembered correctly. Also, in order to prevent the brother and sister from still thinking of revenge, please tell them that Leon Stark is Superman."

Natasha suddenly realized: "You want them to know that the real enemy is dead, and retreat in the face of difficulties?"

“That’s it.” Leon spread his hands. “I am the same age as the brother and sister. I was only ten years old when their parents died. I can understand their feelings very well, but I believe they will figure it out.”

Natasha nodded: "I understand."

After breakfast.

Natasha put on her armor and flew to the Sky Fortress.

Yelena took Shirley to the company to play.

Leon stayed at home, standing by the living room window, looking at the bustling traffic downstairs.

Talk about it.

He quite likes Wanda.

She is strong, beautiful, and love-minded.

It’s a pity that in the other party’s mind, Stark is probably an unforgivable devil.
