Iron Man's Birth

With the plan all set, Chen Mu became a hands-off manager, leaving all the messy details to his father to liaise with Stark's people. He himself returned to his room, locked himself in, and prepared to take out the items from his warehouse for research.

Within Huaqiangbei, there was a lot of technology that Chen Mu needed to sort through.

"Xiao Ai, has the portable Arc Reactor been manufactured?"

Chen Mu had already manufactured it using the production line in the Huaqiangbei Space. He had also instructed Xiao Ai to integrate existing technology to create an armor.

However, the armor manufactured this time was almost identical to Obadiah's Iron Monger, practically the same. But it lacked Jarvis's intelligent assistance system, so piloting it relied entirely on manual control, which was somewhat troublesome.

Therefore, he hadn't brought it out; it wasn't very convenient.

Still, for Chen Mu, the existence of this armor could guarantee his safety.

In the current world, very few people could threaten Iron Monger. Even if he couldn't win, he could directly escape.

"It's a shame I can't really use it. Otherwise, finding a place to take Iron Monger out for a spin wouldn't be bad."

Moreover, Iron Monger was too outdated. Besides building it for fun, Chen Mu didn't have much interest in it. What he wanted more was Tony's Iron Man armor.

"Now, I just have to wait..."

Holding a small Arc Reactor emitting a blue light, Chen Mu's lips curved into a smile.

For Chen Mu now, the urgent matters were mostly settled. All he needed to do was wait.

"I am Iron Man!"

Half a month later, Chen Mu, far away in China, couldn't help but smile as he watched the news online.

Iron Man had finally been born!

Just like in the original story, Tony wore his Iron Man armor and went to the Middle East to destroy Stark's weaponry. He also instructed Little Pepper Potts to copy data from Obadiah's computer and investigate all arms transactions. Unexpectedly, he discovered that Tony's previous kidnapping was orchestrated by Obadiah himself. Obadiah's original intention was to bribe terrorists and eliminate Tony.

When Obadiah found out that his plan was exposed, he preemptively snatched Tony's Arc Reactor and used it in his Iron Monger.

In short, Tony and Obadiah fought, causing quite a stir.

Afterward, Tony even very publicly admitted that he was Iron Man!

At this moment, the curtain of the Marvel World was finally officially raised.

"It's time to head to America again."

Chen Mu's hands were itching with anticipation. The birth of Iron Man meant that the technology for the Iron Man armor was finally perfected.

Chen Mu had been coveting this for a long time and was naturally eager to go to America to obtain this technology.

Coincidentally, Xiao Mu Technology, with his father's help, had already been preliminarily established. Chen Mu had also used the Huaqiangbei production line to produce the first generation of Xiao Mu Phones, the first smartphones to adopt the Android system, with the operating system being MOS. He planned to take these to Stark and officially launch this phone.

"On the side, I can also analyze Jarvis's technology."

Pushing open the door, Chen Mu left his room and walked outside.

"Director Chen, is there something you need to handle?"

As he opened the door, a beautiful and capable girl holding a stack of documents stood up outside.

Her name was Xu Xujia. She was the "financial expert" dispatched by Director Zhang. Of course, that was just on the surface. In reality, she was also responsible for Chen Mu's security, essentially his bodyguard, a very personal one...

At the same time, she naturally had the responsibility of monitoring Chen Mu.

Chen Mu was well aware of this but wasn't worried. Even if they monitored him, could they possibly know about his Huaqiangbei System?

However, to avoid appearing too abnormal, Chen Mu still occasionally engaged in research, wanting to showcase his "genius."

Even though he knew Xu Jia would "steal" his technology and hand it over to the authorities, Chen Mu didn't pay too much attention. He had intended to give that stuff to China anyway, so why worry about excuses? Xu Jia handing it over was actually saving him a lot of effort.

"I need to go to America."

Chen Mu said directly. There was no need to hide it. If the authorities were watching him, they wouldn't miss it anyway.

"America?"

Xu Jia frowned. This would be quite troublesome for her mission.

"What? I can't even go to America?"

Chen Mu said with a wry smile, "The previous agreement didn't restrict my freedom..."

"Besides, this trip to America is for company matters, and I also have some research that requires Stark Industries' help. I'm not staying there permanently."

"I'm sorry, Director Chen, that's not what I meant. It's just that your safety in America is not guaranteed," Xu Jia said, putting down the documents in her hands and frowning.

"You don't need to worry about that; I'll be fine."

With the Iron Monger armor still in the warehouse, Chen Mu truly had nothing to worry about in America.

"It's still not possible. I need to report this to my superiors," Xu Jia sighed, took out her phone, and walked out the door.

Clearly, she was going to report it.

"..."

Chen Mu sighed, sat on the sofa speechlessly, and picked up the remote to watch TV.

Ever since Xu Jia was assigned, she had been staying by Chen Mu's side, except when Chen Mu was showering or using the restroom.

Normally, a man would be happy to have a girl like Xu Jia, who was attractive and had a hot figure, constantly by his side. However, the problem was that she was a "spy," reporting Chen Mu's situation at all times, leaving him with no privacy, which made him very conflicted.

Most importantly, Xu Jia was also very skilled. He definitely couldn't beat her in a fight, and he couldn't outrun her either. It was basically impossible to get away from her.

This left Chen Mu conflicted, unsure whether his approach of presenting himself to the public was right or wrong.

"Whatever, this is the Marvel World. I don't need to have too many reservations. As long as I act patriotic enough and my actions are for the motherland, that's enough!"

As long as he was patriotic, even if he made some mistakes, they could be forgiven.

Once he developed the Iron Armor, he could just fly away if anything happened. Would Xu Jia be able to fly after him?
