Synopsis:

Edward Lin, once an ordinary man, is mysteriously transported to 1947 New York in the Marvel Universe. With a new body, a mysterious proficiency panel, and knowledge of alchemy from Fullmetal Alchemist, he must survive in a world ruled by gangs, assassins, and emerging superpowers.
 Starting from Chinatown, he uses alchemy to build his influence, navigate treacherous alliances, and battle sinister forces. But as his power grows, so do his enemies. To carve out his place in this dangerous world, Edward must master his abilities and outmaneuver those who seek to control or destroy him.

Marvel: Alchemist

With the establishment of the World Heroes Association (WHA) in early 2009, Edward Lin's net worth would have seen another significant boost. The WHA, being the first global organization to commercialize superheroes, would attract government contracts, corporate sponsorships, merchandise deals, media rights, and military collaborations, making it an extremely valuable entity.

Updated Net Worth (March 2009): ~$6.8 trillion

Golden Enterprise (Fully Owned): ~$3.75 trillion (Continued dominance in global industries, trade, and high-level security)

Golden Aerospace (65% Stake): ~$1.3 trillion (Expansion into space, increased governmental contracts, and proprietary space tech)

World Heroes Association (51% Stake): ~$350 billion (Rapid growth in commercialization, government partnerships, and corporate sponsorships)

Stark Industries (11.7% Stake): ~$45 billion (Stock continues to rise post-Iron Man's public emergence)

Liquidity & Rare Resources (Kryptonium, Cash, Assets): ~$1.35 trillion (Acquisition of unique assets, high-value resources, and expansion funds)

WHA is expected to increase in value exponentially as superheroes gain mainstream recognition, licensing, and military integration.

Golden Aerospace is preparing for deep-space ventures, which will open up off-world resource mining and technology patents.

Edward Lin's political influence is expanding through WHA's elite network, reinforcing his global authority.

His financial and political grip over Earth's future, heroes, and space exploration is now unmatched.
