Dragon Ball: Traveling Through the Heavens

Chapter 20: Super Soldier Project

Views:

Chu Xiao was sitting alone in the office, and soon seven or eight seductively dressed white women came in from outside. They served tea, rubbed his shoulders and back, laughed and joked, and kept circling around Chu Xiao.

The waiting time was indeed long, so Chu Xiao simply enjoyed the process, taking out the wine and delicacies he brought from the universal capsule and sharing them with everyone. For a while, the office was filled with laughter and springtime...

About two hours later, Howard appeared again, signaled the girls to leave, and started the second round of interviews with Chu Xiao.

"Howard, I hope you bring me good news." Chu Xiao wiped the oil stains from the corners of his mouth and drank the red wine in front of him in one gulp.

"Suck! Good wine!" Howard couldn't help but exclaimed as he smelled the aroma of wine floating in the air. Compared with the fine wine Chu Xiao brought out, his century-old wine was simply dregs.

"If you want to drink, I'll give you a bottle."

The two exchanged a few pleasantries and then got straight to the point.

"Mr. Chu Xiao, Stark Industries has made a decision on your cooperation this time," Howard said slowly, "We are willing to use 45% of the shares to sincerely invite you to join Stark Industries."

Howard said solemnly that in order to facilitate this cooperation, Howard had put in a lot of effort and took out 20% of his own shares and persuaded other shareholders to give up 25% of their shares before he gave 45% of his shares to Chu Xiao.

By this calculation, if Chu Xiao agrees, he will become the largest shareholder of Stark Industries, with a shareholding 20% higher than Howard's.

"Forty-five percent?" Chu Xiao pondered for a while. The result was not much different from what he predicted, so Chu Xiao didn't care about it anymore.

After all, Chu Xiao only stayed in this world for two years, and the value of Stark Industries to him was not reflected in wealth, but in the connection between Stark Industries and the military.

As far as Chu Xiao knew, the super soldier project to create Captain America was jointly completed by the military, Stark Industries, and Dr. Yabohan Erskine.

As long as Chu Xiao joins Stark Industries and becomes his largest shareholder, it will be reasonable for him to join the super soldier program.

Chu Xiao's goal is to obtain the super soldier serum from Dr. Erskine through Stark Industries.

Judging from the plot of the movie, the super soldier serum not only enhances Captain America's physical strength, but also extends his life.

Lifespan is what Chu Xiao cares about most right now.

As for the super soldier serum, there are side effects that are worse for the worse and better for the better.

Chu Xiao believed that even if Dr. Erskine had no way to improve it, if he took it back to the Dragon Ball world, with Bulma's talent, he should be able to develop a perfect super soldier serum.

As long as Chu Xiao nodded, everything would go smoothly regarding the cooperation issues.

In the next few days, Chu Xiao joined Stark Industries as a top scientist and took the lead in leading Stark Industries to fully develop magnetic levitation technology.

Stark Industries has been promoting it extensively, saying that it won’t be long before Stark Industries will launch a groundbreaking technological product that will immediately set off the entire technological community.

Everyone is guessing what big move Stark is going to make.

A small number of people with connections vaguely found out that all these changes were related to the new shareholders of Stark Industries.

For a time, major media outlets reported the news, but unfortunately few people knew the true identity of this mysterious shareholder.

Half a month later, Stark Industries developed the first batch of magnetic levitation equipment.

Not surprisingly, the first batch of magnetic levitation equipment was bought by the military at high prices and equipped on military aircraft and tanks.

The next day, Stark Industries received a sky-high order from the military, which was dozens of times higher than the price of Stark Industries' previous orders.

The major shareholders of Stark Industries saw the unlimited potential of magnetic levitation technology just from this one order, and they all expressed their gratitude that Chu Xiao joined Stark Industries.

They exchanged their shares for immeasurable future value, which was simply the wisest decision in history.

At this moment, Chu Xiao was sitting in his office, looking at the documents in front of him and fell into deep thought.

There were documents on the table with the word "Top Secret" printed on them. The military logo and the Super Soldier Program were particularly conspicuous.

But Chu Xiao frowned, with a look of disappointment on his face.

"Dr. Erskine!"

Chu Xiao repeated the name of Dr. Erskine, the inventor of the super soldier serum and the creator of Captain America.

The document in Chu Xiao's hand was just information about the Super Soldier Project, and Dr. Erskine was the only person in the world who knew the formula of the Super Soldier Serum.

The formulas Chu Xiao wanted were all in Dr. Erskine's brain.

"It seems I must meet Dr. Erskine!"

Chu Xiao made up his mind and called Stark. After waiting for a while, Stark came to Chu Xiao's office.

"Chu Xiao, my good brother, what's the important matter that has you calling me here so urgently? Is the space folding technology ready to be used?!"

Howard often stuck to Chu Xiao during this period, and after a long time, he became friends with Chu Xiao. Although Chu Xiao did not agree, he did not object either. Howard then self-righteously spread the word that Chu Xiao was his brother.

Chu Xiao didn't care about it either. After all, Chu Xiao didn't care about these trivial matters.

"Howard, don't always think about the space folding technology. Magnetic levitation technology has not yet reached the stage of commercialization. It's still early," Chu Xiao continued, "I asked you to come here this time because of this."

Chu Xiao threw the information about the Super Soldier Program to Howard and told him that he needed to join the Super Soldier Program as a scientist.

"You want to join the Super Soldier Program?!" Howard was a little embarrassed. After all, this program was highly confidential and sponsored by the military. Stark only provided partial technical support.

There's nothing wrong with rashly inserting a scientist in there!

But if Chu Xiao is arranged to enter, that would be a big problem!

Because when Howard was working with Chu Xiao, he discovered Chu Xiao's identity problem.

Howard checked personnel files across the United States and even used his connections to obtain China's population data. The results of the investigation were surprisingly similar.

No such person!

Chu Xiao seemed to appear out of thin air. The earliest record was that he appeared on the streets of New York City, walking alone. There was no other information.

If Howard hadn't resisted the pressure and overcome all difficulties, those pedantic shareholders would never have agreed to cooperate with Chu Xiao, a person of unknown origin.

Now that Chu Xiao is about to come into the military's sight, this matter will become even more troublesome!

It’s not just relationships that need to be mobilized!

"What? Is it difficult to operate?" Chu Xiao saw Howard's expression that said, "Don't make things difficult for your elder brother." He knew that Howard would not do anything without benefits. No matter how difficult it was, he could do it with his ability.

The only thing missing is that Howard needs a motivation to spur him on.

Chu Xiao chuckled, slowly raised his hand, and lightly pointed his index finger. Under Howard's puzzled gaze, a dazzling white light shot out from Chu Xiao's index finger.

A white light flashed across Howard's ears, and the heat made his ears numb.

Puff! Howard turned around suddenly and saw that the wooden door behind him was pierced by the light, revealing a hole the size of a bowl. The edge of the hole was charred and emitting bursts of heat.

"Crack! Ouch!" Howard broke out in a cold sweat and thought to himself that if this move hit him, he would definitely be dead!

Looking at Chu Xiao again, Howard found that the Chu Xiao he knew was once again shrouded in a veil of mystery.

"Howard, my good brother, do you have any questions about me joining the Super Soldier Program?"

"No... no problem, haha! After all, we are brothers! Ha! Oh, by the way, what was that move you just made? High temperature rays?"
