I'm a party

Chapter 1 Agree with sincerity

"Don't come near me, I can take care of myself." Hanmer trembled slightly, glanced at Yuriko behind him, then sat on the chair as he was told, confronting the three people in front of the table.

"Good. Now we can talk in detail." The masked young man said with a smile.

"Just now you said you wanted to conspire with me, is that true?" Hanmo swallowed his saliva and forced himself to remain calm.

Hammer is definitely not a stupid person to be able to hold such a high position. The other party did not take his life at this moment, which shows that he is still useful.

"Well, can you take off the mask, my friend? I don't mean to be disrespectful, but the person who wants to cooperate with me does not reveal his true face, which really makes me suspicious." After Hammer finished speaking, sweat had already seeped out of his forehead. He was testing the other party's bottom line, which was a very risky move.

However, the opponent's straightforwardness was beyond his expectations. After saying "That's enough", the man suspected to be the mastermind took off his mask, revealing a young face.

Hammer tried his best to search for information about this person, but finally came to one conclusion: he had never seen this person.

"You may call me Aleister."

"Yes, Mr. Aleister, I am Justin Hammer, the executive CEO of Hammer Industries." Hammer pretended to be enthusiastic, and his businessman's spirit gradually emerged.

"Then what do you want to do with me, Lord Aleister?"

"Mr. Hammer, I heard that at a military meeting, you wanted to help the government force Mr. Tony Stark to hand over the secret of the Iron Man suit, but Mr. Tony ridiculed you, saying that Hammer Industries has not been able to surpass the technology of the Iron Man suit in 20 years." Lu Yifang took off his mask and did not respond directly, but instead mentioned the past.

"Oh, Lord Aleister, everyone knows about this matter, so there is no need for you to mention it again." Hammer spread his hands helplessly, then seemed to understand something and turned his gaze to Lu Yifang.

"Could it be that you have cracked the core technology of Iron Man's suit - the Ark Reactor?" Hammer thought to himself, isn't this a coincidence? He just got a terrorist who seems to have mastered this technology out of prison, and now someone else comes to visit.

"Unfortunately, Mr. Hammer, energy technology is not the research field of my team."

"Well, what is your research field?" Hearing this, Hammer lost interest. If it weren't for the awkward situation, he might have walked away.

"We specialize in biotechnology. As for the results, you can judge for yourself. After all, she is right next to you." Lu Yifang smiled meaningfully.

"Beside me, could it be..." Hammer was stunned and looked at Yuriko beside him.

Recalling the woman's previous terrifying fighting power, Hammer blurted out: "She is - a biological weapon!"

"Her name is Yuriko, and she is a work of art created through our years of hard work." Lu Yifang supported his chin with one hand and looked at the maid with admiration, his tone as if he was telling her a treasure.

"What do you think of Yuriko's performance just now?" Lu Yifang suddenly asked.

"Very good." Hammer was not afraid of criticism and incurring Lu Yifang's anger, but he truly realized the potential of this technology. As a keen businessman, he had already smelled the scent of dollars from Yuriko.

Seeing Hammer's interest, Lu Yifang raised his lips slightly and continued, "As we all know, Stark Industries is about to withdraw from the international arms arena. Existing arms dealers are eager to fill its vacancy and become the new generation of arms giants, but this is not easy."

Hearing this, Hammer clenched his fists unconsciously, because what Lu Yifang said was exactly what he had dreamed of.

"Here." Lu Yifang threw a stack of documents to Hammer.

The document contains an overview of Wolverine's mass production technology, but it is more like a PowerPoint presentation from most companies, with all the exaggerated words boiled down to just a few words:

I——awesome technology——please give me gold!

Hammer is not Tony. If he were Tony, he would probably study the technology carefully, ask Lu Yifang about the difficult questions, and then make his own judgment. But when the poor student Hammer saw the document, he only thought, "Although I don't understand it, I think it's very powerful."

"Strengthening self-healing ability and implanting metal bones. I have to sigh at your arrogance and genius, but I still have a doubt." Although Hammer is not well-educated, he is not stupid. How could he believe the exaggerations in the documents?

"If this enhanced self-healing technique is used in the medical field, it will cause a revolution and the world will no longer have diseases. Compared to biological weapons, isn't it more promising?"

"We know this ourselves." Upon hearing this, Lu Yifang remained calm and signaled Hammer to look at Yuriko again.

"Can you see the difference between him and ordinary people?"

"Intelligence and emotion." Hammer stared at Yuriko for a moment and replied.

"Yes, the price of strengthening the self-healing power is the impact on the brain. Not only that, strengthening self-healing is due to accelerated cell division. The number of cell divisions is limited. You should have thought of the consequences of acceleration." Lu Yifang looked directly at Hammer and spoke nonsense in a serious manner.

"I see." Hammer nodded and believed it for the time being.

"Mr. Hammer, I know that you are very interested in the technology of the Iron Man suit. It is indeed a top-tech weapon. However, as a military equipment, it has major flaws." Praising one's own products and belittling others are basic qualities of a negotiator, and Lu Yifang believes that he possesses them.

"I'd like to hear the details." Hammer looked towards Lu Yifang.

"It's about cost. How much does the Iron Man suit cost? One hundred million dollars? That's a joke. You can't even buy an F22 for that price. If the cost is reduced to this level, a replica will only need one Tomahawk missile.

Mr. Hammer, the strength of the Iron Man armor is closely related to Tony Stark's investment in it. This is a toy for the super-rich. He even spent the price of an aircraft carrier to build the suit. And you are willing to spend money on it? Doesn't the buyer behind you feel bad?"

Seeing Hammer lost in thought, Lu Yifang smiled even brighter. "Mr. Hammer, you are trapped. The market for Iron Man armor is not what you think, but the skills in my hands are not like that."

"According to our estimates, the mass production of biochemical soldiers would only cost $180,000 per soldier, which is only three to five years' salary for an ordinary American soldier. You have already seen their combat effectiveness."

"The vision you described is indeed fascinating, and cloning technology is not difficult nowadays. However, Mr. Aleister, you also know that biochemical soldiers are related to morals and ethics, and this matter is quite controversial." Hammer's words became increasingly vague.

"In a democratic society like ours, there are always some well-fed people who are easily incited by unwarranted things."

Although Hammer's words were tactful, how could Lu Yifang not understand his meaning?

"Are you so stupid that you can't be compared?" Lu Yifang glanced at Hammer as if he were a fool, and then continued.

“Who says biochemical soldiers must be in human form? Why not lions, tigers, or even wolves? Even though their intelligence may be reduced, the key is still controllable.” Lu Yifang raised his glass to signal, and the maid saw this and hurried forward to fill the coffee.

"I have to admit that your words are quite tempting." Hammer nodded sincerely, "Then how can I help you, my friend?"

"I need a quiet place suitable for team study, and resources to support research," Lu Yifang said bluntly.

"A research institute with complete facilities, far away from the hustle and bustle, plus 1 billion in start-up funds." Hammer flicked his fingers and agreed cheerfully.

"I want all information about us and this research to remain confidential until we reveal our final results."

"As it should be." Hammer clapped his hands. "Mr. Aleister, trade secrets are the basis for businessmen to make profits. How could I be so stupid as to disclose them?"

"Mr. Aleister, I have accepted your offer. As a businessman, I invest generously to gain greater returns."

"What do you want?" Lu Yifang looked at Hammer, who was smiling but had a businessman's air, and knew his intention well.

“I need to know when I can get the final research results and when I can reap the rewards.”

"Five years." Lu Yifang gave a specific time limit.

"This number is neither long nor short. Mr. Aleister, I can learn about the progress of each stage regularly. Only when we see the results, we will be willing to invest more, don't you think?"
