A roar came from the office on the top floor of the Osborne Building in New York.
"You can't do this. I've invested so much in this experimental project.”
The boss of Osborne Enterprise, Norman Osborne, looked at the shareholders in front of him like wolves, and couldn't help but feel a sense of powerlessness.
Several shareholders just smiled at Norman's roar. Under the erosion of capital, Osborne Enterprise was no longer Norman's one-word rule. They held enough shares and had enough say.
Besides, what was Norman's goal this time? Human Body Strengthening Formula?
What a whimsical idea. Even the military couldn't successfully develop it. Spending a lot of money on a money-burning project that didn't yield results was stupid.
Previously, with the support of the military, they couldn't say anything. However, Norman's plan had been rejected by the military, which meant that his decision had made a mistake.
No one would dare to stroke the tiger's beard before an undefeatable War God failed. However, when he failed, it proved that he was a human and not a god, which made some people tempted.
"But how do you explain the military rejecting your plan? Norman, you have to know that you have to put the company's interests first. We won't play the game of chasing your dreams with you.”
A fat old man said bluntly, and the other shareholders nodded in agreement.
"As long as we successfully develop the human body strengthening formula, we can change the entire world. Osborne Industries will also rise with the wind, catching up to Stark Industries is not a daydream!”
Norman didn't want to give up on this plan and tried to convince the other shareholders to support him.
He was a man with dreams and ambitions. He didn't want to maintain the status quo for the rest of his life. He also wanted to stand at the peak of the world and cause huge waves with a light stomp of his foot, instead of begging others like this.
However, the other shareholders obviously didn't care about Norman's words. One of them mocked him rudely,
"Surpassing Stark Industries? You must be dreaming. Not only does Stark have a huge industrial system, but its new owner, the genius Tony, has already announced that he is the legendary Iron Man!”
" Do you understand what Iron Man represents? Powerful exoskeleton warframes have already appeared, and it is no longer a dream for one person to challenge a full army. Warframes with high-speed movement and missile bombing capabilities have already been formed, and your experimental project is just a theory. It has not been stabilized yet, and there are huge side effects. One is a low-quality product, and the other is a completed high-quality product. Everyone knows how to choose.”
The white-haired fatty slammed the table and stood up. He said word by word,
"If Tony chooses to sell this armor, Stark Industries will become the most powerful company in the world. As for your chance, we will never agree to it. Even if we hold a vote, you will lose.”
The other shareholders revealed mocking smiles, then left one by one, leaving Norman Osborne alone in the office.
After an unknown amount of time, Norman Osborne covered his face and laughed, a few drops of tears seeping out of the corner of his eyes. He said self-deprecatingly:
"Even though I've given so much and created so much value for the company, I'm still hated and easily abandoned at this moment. What a ridiculous human nature. In comparison, I seem to be even more ridiculous!”
Norman was in a daze for a long time without saying a word. Finally, he made up his mind and stayed in the office until late at night.
He took the elevator to the laboratory alone and picked up the document on the human body strengthening formula on the table to read it carefully.
The only way to achieve a breakthrough was to conduct human experiments. No matter how similar the structure of mice and humans was, they were still fundamentally different. Moreover, these drugs were used to promote the evolution of the human body. The mice were not humans. It was very likely that the dosage of the drug had appeared.
However, it was too late now. The company and the military had rejected his project, which meant that he did not have enough time to find a willing experimental subject. The only way left was...
"I will definitely lead the evolution of mankind. You bunch of short-sighted fools, you will all regret it!”
Norman Osborne lowered his eyes. In the end, he decided to use himself for the experiment. As long as it was successful, his project would not only restart, but also receive a lot of financial support.
But all of this was because he was not strong enough. If he were Tony, he would not need to ask for other people's opinions. No one would dare to stop him if he insisted on doing things his own way.
Norman changed into his white clothes and walked into the laboratory. After hesitating for a moment, he injected himself with the prepared drug. Then, the laboratory sprayed out a green fog that enveloped the entire space.
"Aaah!"
Accompanied by wails and roars, the green fog gradually condensed into the shape of an egg. It then began to beat like a heart, as if a terrifying thing was slowly hatching within it.
