Chapter 180
When all the clips about Iron Man were finished, the venue was filled with long cheers.
Senator Shelley began to give a long speech. At the beginning, he praised Tony's character and behavior.
Then, he changed his tone and began to explain the huge destructive power of the Iron Man suit. He also introduced the various weapons on it and hinted that such a powerful weapon of war is not suitable for individuals.
It should be managed by the federal government, and Tony Stark should also hand over the technology of the Ark Reactor.
Senator Shelley's voice was loud and resounding in everyone's ears.
"Ladies and gentlemen."
He put down his speech and stood in the center of the conference platform:"Ark reactor technology is a unique technological product. It will bring about a new energy revolution. As long as we have it, our fighter jets can fly into space, and we can create more steel suits to maintain peace."
"Right now, there are only two companies in the world that have this technology, Angel Technologies and Stark Industries. Lin, Tony, as long as you agree to hand over the technology, it will immediately change the world."
Senator Shelley looked at Lin Xuan and Tony Stark.
Everyone looked over.
"Angel Technology and Stark Group should be handed over."
Hammer said loudly:"This is for the whole world, for all mankind"
"If you two agree, everyone will be grateful to you."
Stone Industry Brown said
"That is, fission reactor technology belongs to the whole world and all mankind.
Many other companies have spoken out
"You shouldn't have a monopoly on this technology."
"Tony, what do you say?"
Senator Shiri asked,"Are you willing to hand over the Ark reactor technology and the Iron Man suit?"
"Tony, you should hand it over."
The surrounding congressmen followed up and said
""I don't want to."
Tony Stark's face was grim.
Didn't he know what these people were thinking?
If the technology of the Ark Reactor was really handed over, they would only use it to start a war.
This was definitely not what Tony wanted to see.
He didn't trust Congress and the government. This kind of thing was the safest to have in his own hands.
"Tony Stark, you are endangering all of humanity,"
Ciri said angrily, like an angry lioness.
"You are a superhero now, but can you guarantee that you will still be a superhero tomorrow and the day after tomorrow? If you go crazy that day, then the Iron Man suit and the fission reactor will be a disaster for all mankind."
"I don't need any guarantees."
Tony sneered:"Because you are not trustworthy. If the technology of the Iron Man suit and the Ark reactor falls into your hands, it will only cause a bigger war and more deaths."
"I gave up Stark Group's arms industry for a more peaceful world, and now, it is impossible for me to hand over my things."
"You are slandering me."
Xili blushed.
"This is a fact."
Tony emphasized:"Do you want me to give you a few more examples?"
Lin Xuan drank his coffee quietly, even closed his eyes, yawned and began to rest.
He was obviously one of the protagonists of this hearing, but it seemed that he had nothing to do with it.
"Lin Xuan, Tony is unwilling to hand over the Ark reactor in order to maintain peace, so are you willing to hand it over?"
Xi Li asked.
Lin Xuan did not answer.
"Angel Technology is an arms dealer. The weapons they manufacture are sold all over the world. Every day, no one knows how many people will die from their weapons."
"Such a company has technology that is decades ahead of the rest of the world. Can you be assured?"
Hammer stood up and asked loudly.
Many people were confused.
"As far as I know, aren't you Hammer Industries also an arms dealer?"
The executive chairman of North Industries shouted,"Aren't the fighter planes, bombers, submarines, and rifles you manufacture killing people every day? Now the federal army in the Middle East is massacring unarmed civilians. Is this what you call maintaining peace?"
"Hypocrisy.
Many entrepreneurs and wealthy people have spoken out, saying that if they can take away Angel Technology's technology today, they can take away everything from them tomorrow.
Once this kind of thing sets a precedent, there will definitely be a second time.
"You are robbing us."
The chairman of Oracle News shouted,"We are protesting the government's actions."
"That's right, you are breaking the law."
Someone took the lead, and others followed immediately.
Hammer was dumbfounded. How could the situation that was originally good be reversed in an instant?
"This is not robbery, this is for the peace of all mankind"
"This is benefiting the whole society and the whole country."
"Fuck it!"
The chairman of Ada Technology raised his middle finger to Hammer and kept spewing
""You bastard."
Hammer cursed.
If there were no guards blocking them, they would have immediately started a fight.
Even if Angel Technology and Stark Group handed over the technology, what would it matter?
Anyway, it would not fall into their hands.
Instead, they would have to worry about being robbed all the time in the future.
Therefore, anyone with a little knowledge would choose to stand on the side of Angel Technology at this time.
Not to protect Angel Technology, but to protect themselves.
"You worms, bastards."
"This is illegal, you should be put in jail"
"You are destroying the country."
"Scum."
In the audience, those with bad tempers even started fighting, those who supported Lin Xuan and those who opposed Lin Xuan cursed each other.
""Congressman Shelley, Congressman Hilly, you are deliberately undermining national security and social stability."
Lincoln seized the opportunity and jumped up from his seat.
"This is the temple of the free world, private property is sacred and inviolable, but now, you are plundering private property under the banner of all mankind. This is a blatant crime."
Congressman Lincoln was filled with righteous indignation and shouted loudly
"You should be sent to the gallows."
"All of Angel Technology's technologies are independently developed, and the social responsibilities and taxes it has undertaken over the years far exceed those of other companies.
Lincoln took out a report:"This is the tax report of Angel Technology that I collected, as well as the amount of donations made around the world each year. Almost every year, the amount of charity spent is over one billion US dollars."
"I want to ask everyone, is such a company and enterprise not worthy of our trust?"
Lincoln almost roared out
"But now, some people want to use fishing reels to trample on the law and want to rob others of their hard-earned research results. Is this still our federation?"
Lincoln asked loudly.
