Chapter 100 Cooperation Achieved

As Fu Qinghai expected, for someone like Justin Hammer, even if he went to jail, it was just a formality. Although he didn't know why he went to jail, from the second day on, Fu Qinghai never saw him in the prison's activity room or cafeteria again.

Fu Qinghai was not anxious, but waited patiently in the detention center for two days, during which time he practiced Force meditation quietly in the cell.

The two inmates looked at Fu Qinghai's hideous and knotty muscles, as well as the iron-gray metal joints embedded in his skin, and immediately felt that this man was not someone that could be easily messed with, but they managed to keep peace with him.

On the third day, a prison guard in black uniform came to Fu Qinghai's cell door, opened the door swiftly with a bunch of keys in his hand, and said:

"Quentin, come with me, you've been bailed out."

Fu Qinghai opened his eyes and stood up from the bed. Without any surprise on his face, he calmly followed the prison guard to the outside of the passage.

The prison guard muttered as he walked:

"You will be released from custody in two weeks. Why are you being bailed out at this time? What have you been doing?"

The prison guard was a little puzzled. Fu Qinghai did not say anything, but just followed him silently to complete the release procedures. The police officer handed Fu Qinghai a set of old clothes and a package. Once he walked out of the prison gate, his detention would be over.

Fu Qinghai gently opened the package, revealing his own Wagang sword Broken Heart, and Feiyi's necklace.

There was also a worn-out black backpack. Fu Qinghai unzipped it and saw the remains of three underworld scarabs, a Pym ray pistol, and Hall Kemp's servo skull.

It's good that he's here, Fu Qinghai breathed a sigh of relief.

Before entering prison, one must check one's personal belongings, but it is obvious that the prison officers do not realize the technological value contained in these things.

Wearing a backpack, a necklace, and holding a black sword wrapped in kraft paper in his hand, Fu Qinghai, wearing a gray-yellow hoodie, work jeans, and a pair of canvas shoes, walked out of the prison gate.

Outside the gate, there was a pure black full-size SUV, the Cadillac Escalade, parked. Two men in suits and sunglasses stood in front of the car with their hands behind their backs, having been waiting for him outside the door.

Fu Qinghai walked over.

A man in a suit and sunglasses came forward and said, "Mr. Quentin, we are the ones who bailed you out of jail, and our boss wants you to come over."

Fu Qinghai nodded, opened the car door and got in without saying a word.

No need to explain, hurry up.

Fu Qinghai sat in the back seat with his head touching the roof of the car. A man in a suit and sunglasses on the passenger seat handed him a brown paper file bag.

Fu Qinghai opened the brown paper bag and saw a pile of documents with his name on them: a social security card with a blue and white pattern, a passport, a driver's license, etc.

Fu Qinghai smiled. As expected, Justin Hammer would undergo a background check after he got out, and would find out that his file was blank and that he was imprisoned as an illegal immigrant.

Fu Qinghai closed the brown paper bag and said,

"Thank Mr. Hammer for me."

This is not even a green card, it is the real American citizenship, the American citizenship that countless illegal immigrants and five-cent immigrants are scrambling to get. For someone like Justin Hammer, it may just be a matter of saying hello to the Immigration Bureau.

The Cadillac turned onto the highway and drove towards the metropolis with tall buildings in the distance.

New York.

The world's largest city, the disaster-stricken New York City, has been destroyed countless times in countless ways in countless movies.

The Cadillac drove through the city, crossed the sea bridge, and arrived at Long Island, New York.

Arriving at the Long Island area, the buildings began to become sparse. The car passed through a quiet mountain forest and an American-style mansion came into view. It had white stucco walls, continuous arches and corridors, a high-ceilinged living room with large windows, and crimson roof tiles that were particularly eye-catching under the sunlight.

The large black SUV stopped, and Fu Qinghai followed the men in black suits into the mansion.

The whole living room is filled with romance and solemnity, with floors paved with moon-white marble, tiles as bright as mirrors, gorgeous crystal chandeliers, branded velvet cushion chairs, and exquisite ebony carved bookcases.

Fu Qinghai's shabby clothes seemed out of place with the elegant interior of the mansion.

A thin middle-aged man, with a cane in his hand, was sitting on the sofa waiting for Fu Qinghai's arrival.

On both sides of him stood two men, a thin young man with messy hair and unkempt appearance, and a short, stocky white man with black hair.

Fu Qinghai walked a few steps to the opposite side of the middle-aged man and sat down with his legs spread out.

Justin Hammer smiled and said,

"Hello, Mr. Quentin, we meet again."

"Hello, Mr. Hammer."

Unlike the simple orange prison uniform he wore when they met in prison, Justin Hammer was now dressed in a well-fitting dark gray suit with dark patterns, a tie, shirt and vest.

Justin Hammer said,

"I am very fascinated by the alloy formula you provided, Mr. Quentin. If this is the gift you mentioned, then this gift is incredibly valuable."

Fu Qinghai shrugged nonchalantly and said:

"This is just the beginning, Mr. Hammer. As the Chinese say, this is called a pledge of allegiance. In my mind, there are still many, many more techniques and knowledge. It all depends on how much interest you have."

Justin Hammer nodded with interest, but did not continue the topic. Instead, he changed the subject and said:

"But according to our investigation, Mr. Quentin, you have not studied in any top universities, nor have you done research in any research institutes around the world. I'm very curious, how did you acquire all this knowledge?"

Facing this question, Fu Qinghai had already prepared a plan. He said calmly,

"As for my identity, I guess... not only did you fail to find out the school I attended and the research institute I worked for, but you also failed to find out my parents, my birthplace, my date of birth, etc., right?"

Hearing Fu Qinghai's words, the short and sturdy black-haired man standing behind Justin Hammer raised his eyes slightly.

Fu Qinghai did not wait for Justin Hammer's answer, and then explained directly:

"Because all my files have been deleted by the CIA."

"I am a volunteer for a CIA biochemical modification experiment. As you can see, my body is the product of the biochemical modification experiment. Later, the project was cancelled and there was no funding, so I had to live on the streets."

"And the alloy formula I provided you was not actually figured out by myself. After the biochemical transformation, I gained the ability to remember everything I saw. These are the technical data I secretly recorded with my eyes before leaving the laboratory of the Ministry of Defense."

"I have a lot of similar technical information. It depends on how much you can offer, Mr. Hammer."

After Fu Qinghai finished speaking, he looked quietly at Justin Hammer in front of him.

To Fu Qinghai's surprise, Justin Hammer did not question Fu Qinghai's flawed statement at all. He just nodded slightly and then asked,

"So, Mr. Quentin, how much do you need me to offer?"

Fu Qinghai leaned back, opened his arms, and said,

"Money, women, luxury cars, luxury houses, all of these... I desire them all, I need them all. I believe that these things are not a problem for the person in charge of Hammer Industries, but..."

Fu Qinghai paused for a moment and said:

"What I need most now is a laboratory."

"A laboratory?"

Justin Hammer repeated Fu Qinghai's request.

"That's right." Fu Qinghai nodded, "A laboratory comparable to the one Tony Stark has on the top floor of Stark Tower. With a laboratory of this standard, I can restore the knowledge and technology in my mind to you exactly as it is. I wonder if this request is difficult for you?"

After saying that, Fu Qinghai looked at Justin Hammer with a smile.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

"Hahahaha." Justin Hammer raised his head and laughed, then pointed at Fu Qinghai, shook his head and sighed,

"You are very smart, very smart, Mr. Quentin. You obviously know the grudge between Mr. Stark and me, and you also know that Hammer Industries and Stark Industries are major competitors worldwide, so you deliberately mentioned that person's name to provoke me, to make me meet your requirements to the greatest extent possible, regardless of the cost."

Justin Hammer waved his hand and said,

"No problem. Hammer Industries respects all talents. I am not one of those stingy people from the Stark family who doesn't even allow partners to earn some pocket money. I have met your requirements. I will do my best to provide you with everything you want, including instruments, equipment, and consumables. Just ask for whatever you want!"

Fu Qinghai knew why Justin Hammer said that the Stark family were all misers.

Igor Vanko, a Russian scientist, was once the technical partner of Tony Stark's father, Howard Stark. According to Anton, he and Howard Stark developed the Ark Reactor together. Later, Howard Stark discovered that Igor was secretly selling weapons and military technology to international buyers and terrorists, so he exiled Igor Vanko.

Igor died in resentment and depression. Before his death, he kept telling his son Anton Vanko that the Ark Reactor belonged to their family. Anton was also a technical genius and had always held a grudge against the Stark family, so he made a low-power version of the Ark Reactor, performed the Lightning Five Whips, transformed himself into the villain "Whiplash", and attacked Iron Man on the racetrack.

This is the story in the Iron Man movie. The Whiplash attack on Iron Man was manipulated by Justin Hammer behind the scenes, so he naturally knew the reason best.

In Justin Hammer's opinion, the partner wanted to sell technology to terrorists, which was at most to make some pocket money. It would be foolish to exile his partner for such a small matter.

Seeing that Justin Hammer agreed to his request, Fu Qinghai was also very happy. As for how he evaluated Tony Stark and his father, what did it have to do with me? Fu Qinghai's goal had been achieved.

After reaching a preliminary consensus, Justin Hammer casually cut a Cohiba cigar with a cigar cutter, put it in his mouth without lighting it, and said to Fu Qinghai:

"Mr. Quentin, first let me introduce you to the two people behind me."

"This one." Justin Hammer pointed to the thin and unkempt young man on his left and said:

"This is Philip Barnett, the current chief researcher and engineer of Hammer Industries. Every scientific and technological achievement you restore will be evaluated by him to determine its value."

Fu Qinghai nodded to Philip Barnett as a greeting.

Justin Hammer said calmly,

"Although Hammer Industries' main R&D force and sales network are in the United States, I am actually a Monegasque. Our headquarters is also in Europe. I will return to Europe from time to time. Here, I will introduce another person to you."

Justin Hammer pointed to the short, stocky, black-haired man standing behind him on his right and said,

"Nathan Lemon is my intelligence chief and the person in charge of Hammer Industries in New York. Please write down his contact information. If you have any requests that need to be met, you can contact him. In New York, Mr. Nathan Lemon can represent me."

"Okay." Fu Qinghai glanced at Nathan Lemon and nodded as well.

Since this person is Justin Hammer's intelligence chief, investigating his background is his responsibility.

Justin Hammer stood up from the sofa, patted Fu Qinghai on the shoulder affectionately, and said,

"Mr. Nathan Lemon will solve everything you need. So next, I wish us a happy cooperation, Mr. Quentin."

Fu Qinghai nodded, stood up and shook hands with Justin Hammer.

There was no bloody plot where the villain used force or kidnapping to force Fu Qinghai to hand over his technology and knowledge. Justin Hammer was a smart man. Why would he resort to force when money could solve the problem?

"By the way." Justin Hammer led Fu Qinghai out of the door of the mansion and turned around to ask casually,

"Who is the person in charge of the biochemical transformation project you accepted at the CIA, Mr. Quentin?"

Old fox.

How could Fu Qinghai know who it was? The memory that the reincarnation world forced upon him was very crude and vague, and there was no information about the person in charge at all.

But he showed no hesitation and answered without hesitation:

"It's General Ross."

"General Ross?"

Justin Hammer was stunned when he heard this.

That's right, Fu Qinghai had already prepared the answers to the corresponding questions and could answer them immediately.

General Thaddeus E. Ross, Lieutenant General of the Air Force and father-in-law of Dr. Bruce Banner, has dedicated his life to hunting down the Hulk. He happens to be from the Department of Defense, which fits Fu Qinghai's previous statement. In order to defeat the Hulk, General Ross later used gamma rays to turn himself into the Red Hulk. Isn't this a naked biochemical transformation experiment? If Justin Hammer uses his connections in the military to investigate General Ross, he might really be able to find clues of the biochemical transformation experiment.

Fu Qinghai nodded calmly and said,

"Yes, it's General Ross. Do you know him?"

Hammer Industries is a US defense contractor. How could Justin Hammer not know General Ross? He just had never dealt with him before, but he had definitely heard of his name.

"Tsk..." Justin Hammer narrowed his eyes, thinking about something.

Think about it, think about it slowly, Fu Qinghai thought.

This move is called - diverting trouble to others.

Let Justin Hammer investigate General Ross. As he investigates, he will find that the more he investigates, the more information he will find out. Maybe he can find out everything about the Hulk.

With General Ross, the "experimental project leader" to attract firepower, Justin Hammer will ignore Fu Qinghai to a certain extent, and Fu Qinghai can concentrate on his own experiments and manufacturing without being disturbed.

　Thanks to book friends with the last digit 7857 and 0483 for their rewards.

　　In the comics, Justin Hammer is an elderly man, but in the movie version, he was recast as a younger character in order to make him a mortal enemy with the same appearance as Tony Stark. Another reason is that the role was originally intended for Al Pacino, but the negotiation failed, so Al Pacino's age was consistent with the comics.
