Chapter 111 Research materials on nuclear weapons? I have it!
"That's enough, Calvin!" Thomas Gloucester, who was in the first place, scolded Calvin, then turned to Josie and said, "Our actions are actually not that exaggerated. Most of the time, doing this kind of thing is a helpless act. You are also a businessman, so you should understand that many of Roosevelt's actions are not suitable for the post-war economy!"
"Of course, sir, I understand very well!" Josie nodded pretending to be honest.
"It's good if you can understand. You don't need to participate in this matter. After all, you just returned to the organization. Although you joined the Chicago consortium, your roots in the United States are not deep. It is not suitable for too much involvement in American politics. Help us regain our position in Europe." Steady footing is the most important thing for you!" Thomas Gloucester said with satisfaction looking at the sincere Josie.
Originally, he thought that this youthful young man would be as arrogant as Schmidt, and he agreed to return to the organization only because the other party had mastered the European branch by chance, and even thought that the other party was just launched by the European branch. The shield, but judging from the performance of the short-term contact now, this is actually a very calm young man.
In comparison...Thomas glanced at Calvin and shook his head secretly.
Originally, Etherdan Energy made a fortune during the Great Depression, and now it should be a behemoth similar to First Citigroup and Roxon, but it is a pity that old Chadwick died at a critical moment, leaving Calvin as an idiot .
"Of course, I will try my best!" Hearing what Thomas said, Josie was also very surprised. He originally thought that the other party's meddling in the election and the black hands against Roosevelt were meant to embarrass him, so he grabbed his braid by the way. of.
The results now seem to be not the same thing.
It seems that Hydra is still very lenient towards the inside.
But think about it, it's right, if you give this kind of task that may affect the fate of the organization to someone like Josie who just joined, it's a joke about your own wealth and life—even if Josie joined as a director. .
So for Thomas' remarks and Josie's performance, the rest of the directors also nodded their approval.
"Speaking of which, there is another thing, that is, after Whitney died, the research progress of atomic weapons was greatly delayed. I think the council should come up with a spare charter for this matter. After all, if it cannot be produced as soon as possible Atomic weapons, don’t let the whole world see it, it may not be so easy for the United States to gain world hegemony!” Seeing that Josie seemed to be approved by the rest of the directors, Calvin Chadwick couldn’t help throwing out a question.
"Speaking of which, the matter of Whitney is related to you, right? Josie?" The rest of the directors also looked at Josie after hearing the words.
Calvin's straw bag is only relative to these old fritters in the council.
But for most ordinary people in this era, Calvin, who received a strict elite education since childhood, is by no means an idiot.
Although the Manhattan Project is a national project of the United States, its birth and operation are still inseparable from the interest groups behind the extreme directors present. Speaking of it, it is also Hydra's own project to some extent.
As mentioned earlier, Whitney is only a female star on the surface, but in private she is one of the important researchers of Hydra participating in this project, but because of her female status, she has been unable to directly participate in the project.
It's smart for Calvin to use this matter to run on Josie.
"That's right, I did this thing. This woman's behavior of stealing the Night Light Potion almost brought me to court-martial. If it wasn't for the fact that my research institute just happened to research the Bright Light Potion, would I be able to do it now?" Sitting here and still talking... What? If you encountered this situation, would you still keep her for Christmas?" Unlike the last time Malik was tempted by Zuo Guyan, Josie was very straightforward this time. admitted.
Because the situation is different. Before he joined the council, the two sides were not the same. Josie admitted that the other party could make a fuss about it to retaliate against him.
But now that Josie has become one of the highest-ranking directors of Hydra, Whitney's previous behavior is "offending the next."
Other directors can use this matter to run against themselves, but they can't do anything to Josie. This is the privilege of being a director.
"Although Whitney was at fault for this matter first, Josie's handling is still too violent. It doesn't matter how you punish her, but it's not appropriate to kill her directly!" said the controller of the Roxon Group. Hugh Jones also said at this time, "But this matter is not irreparable. I have a good personal relationship with that genius scientist, Howard Stark. Maybe we can try to persuade him to participate in the Manhattan Project. In terms of ability , he should also be stronger than Whitney."
After hearing what Hugh Jones said, the rest of the directors immediately agreed. Although Howard Stark was obviously not the same as them, this did not prevent them from using this super scientist in other names.
Before Howard Stark was recruited by the Strategic Science Corps to the front line and was responsible for the R&D and manufacturing of various special equipment, so the council was not easy to do.
But with the end of the European war, Howard Stark, like Josie, has returned to the United States, which gave the council a chance.
why?
Of course it is because of Howard's personal morality.
It is not denied that Stark and his sons are both geniuses, and they are also "heroes" with responsibility in many cases.
But compared to other upright heroes like Captain America, the personal virtues of the father and son are not that great.
Being friends with this father and son, you first have to consider whether you will wear a cuckold because of this.
And just right, Josie knew that this Hugh Jones, who claimed to have a good personal relationship with Howard, was one of the victims... Josie hadn't seen the second part of Agent Carter, so he didn't know about Whitney Frost before. and Calvin Chadwick.
But Hugh Jones is an exception, because the Roxon Group he controls has a very high appearance rate in Marvel, whether it is comics, movies or film and television dramas, so Josie has specifically read the information about the Roxon Group collected by those UP owners.
And in this, the love-hate entanglement between Hugh Jones and Howard Stark was mentioned.
To put it bluntly, Hugh Jones regarded Howard as his brother, but Howard slept with his wife.
That is, from that time until the era of Tony Stark, the Roxon Group has been desperately targeting the Stark Group.
Except for commercial struggles, no one believes that there is no personal grievance.
But this has nothing to do with Josie, and he didn't intend to remind this one.
But Calvin used Whitney to run on him, but Josie would not expose it so easily.
Isn’t it nuclear weapons research data?
He has the whole set!
There is Yuri.
Let’s not talk about the first generation of atomic bombs.
The second generation of hydrogen bombs and three-phase bombs.
The third generation of neutron bombs and electromagnetic pulse bombs.
Even fourth-generation nuclear directed energy weapons, can that be called a problem?
"If you are worried that the research process of nuclear weapons will be delayed, then there is no need for it!" Just as the rest of the directors were discussing this matter, Josie spoke.
"Oh? Josie, what's your opinion?" Calvin asked provocatively.
"Have you forgotten the super weapon that Schmidt was researching before his death?" Josie raised his eyebrows.
"Of course I know, but isn't that unfinished? And according to the information we got, that thing must have a cosmic Rubik's Cube!" Hearing what Josie said, Thomas said.
"Although there are suspicions of boasting, what I can tell you is that the research institute under me also has a few capable people. After obtaining the super weapon information left by Schmidt, they deduced it, and We already have tangible results... but limited by industrial conditions, we can't turn them into real objects!" Josie smiled and put the pot of nuclear weapons information on the red skull.
As for whether these people believe it or not, it’s none of Josie’s business. Anyway, the nuclear bomb information he has is genuine, even if the Red Skull or Zola come out to deny it, it’s useless.
