Obadiah, holding a wine glass, walked over to Tony and said, "But this is a board meeting."

"This time?" Tony asked in surprise. "You just said it was a board meeting?"

Obadiah sat down next to Tony, looked at him seriously, and said, "The board has announced that you suffer from post-concussion syndrome, and they are applying for a restraining order."

Tony asked in surprise, "What ban?"

"A ban on your work."

Tony, somewhat disgruntled, asked, "Why? Just because the stock dropped 40 points?"

"That was within our expectations."

At this moment, Pepper Potts, who was sitting to the side, looked at Tony and said, "It's dropped by $56.50 per share."

Upon hearing Pepper Potts ' words, Tony immediately turned around and said, "So what? We have controlling interest in the company."

Pepper Potts looked at Tony Stark expressionlessly, at which point Obadiah replied:

"Tony, the board of directors also has rights."

They believe that you and your new ideas are not in the company's best interests.

Tony wiped his mouth with a towel, then raised his voice and said, "In that case, I'll take responsibility. It's a new Qidian for both me and the company."

Upon hearing Tony's words, Obadiah immediately smiled, while Pepper Potts was somewhat shocked by Tony's words.

Tony looked at the two of them and then said, "To be honest, this should be the company's responsibility."

Tony Stark didn't want to discuss the matter further and said to Obadiah, "The pizza tastes great."

He then picked up the pizza box from the table and got up to leave.

Seeing this, Obadiah immediately spoke up, advising, "Don't do this, hey Tony, Tony."

Tony got up from the sofa, looked at the two of them, and said, "I'm going to the Laboratory."

Meanwhile, Pakkun, who had been lying nearby, had already finished his pizza. Seeing Tony get up and leave, he immediately followed him.

"Hi, hi, Tony."

Obadiah stood up to stop him, saying, "Listen to me, I'll try to turn this situation around."

"But you need to take action so I can convince them."

Obadiah pointed to the small Arc Reactor on Tony's chest and said, "I'll take that to the engineers to analyze."

"Develop the technical specifications."

Tony immediately refused, saying, "No, no."

Obadiah continued, "I can use it to whet the appetite of the board."

Tony refused again, saying, "Absolutely not, this can only belong to me."

"No discussion, Obadiah, no talk!"

Seeing Tony's firm refusal, Obadiah simply took the pizza box from Tony's hand and said, "Fine, but this one belongs to me."

Seeing Tony reach for the pizza, Obadiah opened the pizza box and said, "Okay, you can take one."

Tony simply took the two pizzas and said, "Two, thanks!"

They then led Pakkun directly to the underground Laboratory.

Obadiah called out from behind Tony, "Can I come down and see your work?"

Tony quickened his pace downstairs, saying as he declined, "Goodnight, Obadiah."

On the other side.

After leaving the New York Continental Hotel, Ivan Vanko glanced back at the Continental Hotel but did not stay in the city. He had to go back to take care of his seriously ill father.

Since he had not been accepted by Charlotte Doyle, he knew that the corresponding medical care would soon come to an end.

But Ivan Vanko harbored a burning anger within him. Since you look down on me, I will make you understand what you have lost in the future.

Time flies, and ten days have passed in a flash.

During this period, Ginny had already sold off all her short positions in Stark Industries as instructed by Charlotte Doyle. With nearly US Dollar 2 billion in capital, she made a profit of $820 million because she did not use leverage.

Charlotte's assets amounted to $3 billion in cash, $400 million in fixed assets, and $600 million in stock.

Charlotte Doyle's net worth ballooned to US Dollar 4 billion.

After reserving 500 million yuan in cash, Ginny distributed another 2.5 billion yuan in cash through block trades and other channels such as the secondary market to accumulate shares.

At that time, Stark Industries was a publicly traded company, and its wealth had not yet ballooned to such an extent in 2008. Tony Stark's net worth was only US Dollar 12.4 billion, while Stark Industries was worth US Dollar 25 billion.

With US Dollar 2.5 billion in cash, Ginny wasn't guaranteed a 10% stake, even though Stark Industries had already fallen 40%, with its stock price dropping from US Dollar 142 to US Dollar 84.75 per share.

However, the large number of purchases will still drive up Stark Industries ' shares, and Ginny also senses that she is not alone, but other organizations are also secretly acquiring Stark Industries shares.

Besides transferring her shares in Stark Industries as Charlotte requested, Ginny spent this time rebuilding Charlotte Agency.

After spending a certain amount of money, they acquired several undamaged houses next to the Agency as a temporary base for the Agency.

The infrastructure construction for the Base Point was entrusted to Lendlease Construction, headquartered in New York. Union Construction is one of the top ten construction companies in the United States and also the fastest in terms of construction speed among the top ten.

At this time, construction was in full swing at the original site of the Agency, while the temporary location next door had already been transformed into Charlotte's Agency, and normal business had begun.

Over ten days, Charlotte received the following rewards through system check-ins: 2 Ninjutsu Scroll, 200 Ninja Jade, 50 Delicious Ramen, 500 Prestige, 200 Reincarnation Stone, 80,000 Copper Coins, 3 Ninjutsu Scroll, 600 Prestige, 50 Delicious Ramen, and 800 Prestige.

Inside the Agency, Charlotte was sitting on a sofa in the lobby, looking at a newspaper that reported Tony Stark was suspected of suffering from post-concussion syndrome and had been suspended from all work.

Ginny came down from the second floor, carrying several folders.

"Boss, I've already selected some people from the High Table, and I plan to transfer them to the Agency tomorrow to start working. This mainly includes the Agency's doormen, security guards, front desk staff for task assignments, as well as chefs and service staff in the dining area. Would you like to review these?"

Looking at the folder in Ginny's hand and the numerous job positions she mentioned, Charlotte refused, saying, "Ginny, I trust you with these. I won't look at the information for these service personnel."

"However, the Agency doesn't need too many security personnel; one or two to guard the main entrance will suffice."

"Boss, I only selected two security guards to be in charge of the Agency's main entrance."

Clearly, it wasn't just Charlotte; even Ginny knew that the security at this place was just for show.

The people here don't need their protection.
