When Ethan followed the waiter to the second floor, Tony and Yinsen were already talking and laughing.
Tony happened to see Ethan and signaled to Yinsen that he was coming.
"I remember that it wasn't long before I left, you guys were chatting hotly here." Ethan pulled a chair and settled down.
He casually put the quick sugar cube in and started to stir it up. Tony's eyebrows jumped.
"It's best not to put sugar in the coffee. Keeping the original flavor is the most mellow." Tony couldn't help but said.
"I like to drink sweet." He said, and put another piece of candy in it.
He rolled his eyes and tilted his head, not looking at him or bothered.
"What are you talking about?" Ethan asked curiously after he tasted the coffee and found that the sweetness was just right.
"Let's talk about getting your Baymax Technology to join Stark Industries." Yinsen said with a smile.
"No, I plan to create my own company." Ethan directly refused.
"Mr. Stark is willing to give you 34% of the shares." Yinsen continued, waiting for his response.
Ethan glanced at Tony Stark in surprise, "I didn't expect you to be so generous."
"Add 15 percent of what you have on hand, for a total of 34 percent." Tony added at this time. If he was given 34 percent of the shares, then he would have 49 percent of the shares in his hands, which was almost half his own.
This is obviously impossible. Because it's not just his own business.
And 34 percent is already what he strives for.
"Although it is very high, I have decided to create my own company, and I will throw back the 15% of the shares to the market after a while." Ethan shook his head firmly.
"It's not that easy to start a company and run it. I bet you can't last for two years."
"I have Baymax, so I'm not worried about that."
"But can your Baymax be mass-produced? Can it face customers of all classes? And is it mature in terms of intelligence?" Tony said painstakingly.
"I have considered all of these." Ethan shrugged and said.
"And with Yinsen helping to manage the company, a lot of chores will be on him, and it has nothing to do with me."
Yinsen was silent for a while...
"Although what you said is true, you are really not afraid that I will quit if you say it so blatantly." Yinsen said speechlessly.
"I still have to go to school, and I will definitely ask you to help manage it. I will pay for it at that time." Ethan said proudly.
Ethan was reluctant to join Stark Industries, and Tony knew the reason, mostly because of his previous attitude towards Obadiah selling weapons. Although he was a little regretful, he would still give him the support he deserved.
It was rare for the three of them to get together, and they started chatting slowly over coffee.
It's just that Tony and Yinsen are both in their forties, and the twelve- or thirteen-year-old Ethan seems a little weird between them.
...
On the other side, the Mutant Academy. At this time, Professor X, Logan and others were sitting in the conference room, and the atmosphere was a bit dull.
"Logan, did Ethan still not contact you?" Professor X broke the silence and asked Logan.
"No." Logan shook his head lightly.
"Hey, Hank, what happened to the chip factory?" He sighed and continued to ask Hank.
"Some time ago, people from the bank came to sign the loan contract. I heard that Ethan used the chip factory and chip technology to lend to the bank. I don't know what he is going to do when he suddenly asks for so much money." Hank looked very kind, thinking he was an honest man A person, but easily stimulated, it is easy to transform into a beast.
"Forget it, after all, we still have to rely on ourselves to find a way to find a way out for the mutants working in the factory. If the factory is really reclaimed by the bank, or the partner is changed, it will not cause a riot." Professor X had a headache. He pinched his eyebrows.
"Is there really no way to win Ethan?" Hank was a little unwilling. He found many mutants in it. They were discriminated against around them because of their appearance or other mutant reasons. Every place can shelter some mutants.
"We can't take the initiative to contact the child, we can only wait for his letter, there are too many uncertainties." Professor X said helplessly.
"Then why didn't we go to rescue him when he was killed in Afghanistan." Rogan couldn't help but accuse him.
"Our relationship with human beings has only just eased a little. Our actions have attracted the attention of all parties, and we cannot act rashly." Professor X explained.
Of course, there is also the fact that Ethan's status is not worth risking for the stability of the mutant race.
At this time, Ethan only attracted some officials' attention because of Tony's relationship, but because of their age, they have been waiting for Ethan.
But some intelligence organizations have faintly noticed something in him.
At this moment, Logan took out his shining mobile phone.
He looked at the screen of his mobile phone and looked a little excited, "It's Ethan." After he finished speaking to the people around him, he connected the call.
"Hey!"
"Hi, Logan, how are you doing recently!" Ethan's warm greetings came from the phone.
"We've been waiting for your call."
"Oh, there are other people here." Ethan asked curiously.
"Yes, the professor has always wanted to come to the door to apologize, and has been waiting for your approval."
"Hoh, I don't have such a big face." Ethan sneered, and then continued, "Of course, although the professor did something wrong, he helped me before, so I can let you continue to take charge of the chip factory, but in the future you will have Go to Yinsen directly, and I'll give you his contact information in a moment."
Hearing this, Professor X frowned, because this meant that their first contact would be Yinsen. It is also him that the factory communicates with the outside world, and they have directly lost contact with other partners.
"...I hope he doesn't have much malice towards mutants." But he couldn't do anything about it, after all, he caused this situation by himself.
If it wasn't for his impatience, perhaps the two sides still maintained a close cooperative relationship.
For a time, the old man fell into guilt.
"...Okay, I have time to come out and get together. I have time to spare. Hang up first." Ethan hung up the phone after chatting with him for a while.
Logan put down his phone and looked at the others.
"That's great, I'll be much more settled this way." Hank looked excited.
Because with the passage of time, in just one or two months, the fighting robot club in New York has basically completely replaced the boxing ring, and the demand for chips is also increasing. As investors, the profits they get are even more. skyrocketing.
Therefore, as they hold the lifeblood of many companies, they have also gained more respect.
...
On the other side, Ethan walked towards his house after hanging up the phone.
There is Yinsen in the company, and the post-production side of the film is behind to send the finished film to itself, and then send it to the Radio and Television Association for review and rating. After passing it, they start looking for distributors to promote the release.
Of course, it's just a cutscene.
On the Belleville side, the film censorship system is not promulgated and enforced by government departments, and no film or practitioners can be blocked. It is just an industry norm of an industry association.
At this time, he finally got down slowly.
Well, I can finally go to class with peace of mind.
After saying hello to the principal, Ethan came to the school the next day.
Unsurprisingly, when he entered the classroom, everyone surrounded him.
"Ethan, Ethan, were you really kidnapped in Afghanistan?" A curly-haired student asked excitedly, maybe he felt that being kidnapped was a cool thing.
"Didn't Stark say everything, he found him in an oasis." A classmate explained for him.
"How is Mr. Stark, how are you getting along?"
"Do you know why he shut down weapon production?"
"You went with him, do you have a girl for you now?"
...
Good god, a group of people chatted around Ethan and interrogated him.
It wasn't so intense last time, and it really was different about Tony Stark.
When the teacher in class came, a group of students hurriedly dispersed.
Ethan searched around, but couldn't find Toby, so he couldn't help but quietly moved to Erica's side.
"Erica, Erica..." He touched her with his elbow.
Erica first glanced at the teacher nervously, then turned her head, "What's the matter? I still have to attend the class!"
"Where's Toby? Why haven't I seen him?"
"He went to participate in the training of fighting robot designers, just yesterday." Erica whispered.
"Then there shouldn't be anything happening at school recently, right?" Ethan continued to ask.
"No..." But he thought about it, and then said, "Really, someone found out that the newly transferred student was bullied by the fat woman Doreen and a few people blocked in the toilet."
"Doreen? Does she have any support?" Ethan asked strangely.
Doreen is a fat white girl with a very beaten look on her face. She often bullies her classmates, not only girls but also boys.
Her father is a police man, and any small troubles among students will be resolved, so she is very arrogant. When the parents of the bullied students went to find an explanation, they were driven out by her mother.
But being beaten by Ethan was much more honest, but it seemed that it was because her father was not at home at that time.
"I heard that her father is back," Erica said.
Sure enough! Ethan showed a stunned expression.
"Erica, stand up and answer this question." Suddenly, the teacher on the stage shouted to her.
Erica suddenly widened her eyes, feeling that she was out of breath.
Seeing that she was a little pitiful, Ethan raised his hand to help her answer.
"Teacher, Erica, she won't."
Erica's eyes widened, looking at Ethan in disbelief.
Ethan turned his head and gave her a wink.
Seeing his smug look, Erica suddenly took a breath.
"Okay, if you can't, then pay attention to the lecture." The teacher nodded and continued to lecture.
Erica took a few deep breaths and finally calmed down.
...
Just after class, a sharp scream suddenly sounded, "Bastard, take your life!" Erica stood up and picked up the book and smashed it at the Ethan.
"How can you blame me, who made you whisper in class." Ethan blamed her righteously.
Looking at the shameless appearance of the other party, Erica's anger is even greater...
