Meeting

"When I make it big, I'm definitely going to build a skyscraper of my own, put a helipad on the top floor, and take my private elevator every day."

Inside the elevator, Chen Mu could not help saying wistfully.

"..."

Xu Jia rolled her eyes speechlessly, while Little Pepper was equally silent. In her eyes, Chen Mu was just daydreaming...

Just wait and see. Don't say I didn't warn you.

Chen Mu smiled without explaining anything. He looked around the elevator. If he remembered correctly, this was where Captain America had used the words "Hail Hydra" in Avengers 4 to get the Mind Stone from Hydra spies, wasn't it?

Since it was a private elevator, it quickly reached its destination. The doors opened, and the three of them walked out.

"It really is luxurious!"

It had to be said that Tony's taste was indeed impeccable. His office did not look like an office at all. It was extravagantly decorated, without any of the usual seriousness associated with an office.

That also had a great deal to do with Tony's personality.

"Sit."

Tony did not have a conventional office setup. He was simply seated on a sofa. When he saw Little Pepper Potts bring Chen Mu and Xu Jia in, he smiled and gestured for Chen Mu to sit.

"Hello, Mr. Chen Mu. What would you like to drink?"

Tony was still the same arrogant Tony, with no intention of shaking Chen Mu's hand.

"Mr. Stark, it's only been half a month since we last met, yet you've already become Iron Man—a Super Hero."

Chen Mu smiled without getting upset. He sat down, took the bag from Xu Jia, and pulled out a phone.

"Have we met before? Is this your product? It looks pretty good. Better-looking than a Nokia phone."

Tony looked at the phone with interest and curiously picked it up.

"More than half a month ago, we met at Stark Industries. At the time, I was with Mr. Stan. He was also the one who first proposed the smartphone development plan."

Chen Mu remained calm as he continued, "By the way, where is Mr. Stan?"

"With Stan? Ah, I remember now. That was at the Arc Reactor lab. I thought you were a new intern."

Tony nodded thoughtfully. He did remember seeing Chen Mu.

"As for Stan, he was getting old and proposed retirement himself. If I remember correctly, he should be traveling somewhere in Europe."

Naturally, Mr. Stan's situation could not be allowed to become known to others. Stark Industries had kept the news tightly sealed. Apart from some of Stark's upper management, only S.H.I.E.L.D. knew about Obadiah. Ordinary people could never know the truth.

"Of course, the agreement you made with Stan is still valid."

Tony turned on the phone and began examining it.

"Not bad. Its features are indeed better than the phones currently on the market, and this operating system is better too."

Of course, it was still far inferior to the phone Tony used.

After all, Stark was a high-tech company. Although it had not entered the mobile phone industry, making phones was not actually difficult for it. Not to mention anything else, this room alone contained a great deal of advanced technology—virtual projection screens, desktop displays, and so on. Many of them were more advanced than the technology Chen Mu had seen in his previous life.

As for phones, the one Tony used was undoubtedly a black-tech device.

Still, Chen Mu's phone had made quite an impact on him.

There was no Steve Jobs in this world, or perhaps Jobs had not yet released the iPhone 4. Chen Mu's Xiao Mu Phone had completely taken the place the iPhone 4 had occupied in his previous life.

"Not bad, but can this really take market share from phone giants like Nokia and Motorola?"

After playing with it for a while, Tony found himself reluctant to put it down. Still, he looked at Chen Mu curiously.

"You'll know once you try."

Chen Mu smiled meaningfully. The iPhone 4 had succeeded in his previous life, so the even better Xiao Mu Phone would naturally succeed as well.

Of course, if someone insisted that Android was inferior to Apple's system, Chen Mu had nothing to say. In any case, its hardware was much stronger than the iPhone 4's...

As for the system?

Chen Mu had already made plans for that.

"Actually, this phone still lacks one final improvement. As you can see, it's the system."

Android at this point was, frankly speaking, truly terrible. But Chen Mu had no other choice, and it was not as though there was no solution.

"According to my agreement with Mr. Stan, since Stark took so many shares, it also has to provide technical support for the phone. Smartphones are called smartphones because they need a certain degree of intelligence, and Stark Industries needs to help complete that intelligence."

"An intelligent system?"

Tony narrowed his eyes. If an intelligent program were added to the phone, its usability would naturally improve. Moreover, he knew very well that with Jarvis's capabilities, improving the phone's user experience would be effortless.

"Leave the system to Stark. We'll develop an entirely new system specifically for mobile phone operations."

Tony nodded and said confidently, "Trust me. With Stark's technology, making a smooth system will be very easy. And I'll add a dedicated intelligent program to the system as well."

"That couldn't be better."

Chen Mu nodded, his mood finally improving. The system developed by Apple in his previous life would now be developed by Stark in this world?

Still, with Stark's capabilities, developing a system that surpassed iOS really would not be a problem.

And that intelligent program would naturally be Jarvis.

Since the production lines were all in China, Stark would naturally copy Jarvis over there. That would give Chen Mu an opportunity to make contact with it, as well as a chance to analyze Jarvis.

By then, Chen Mu would no longer lack AI programs.

"Jarvis, load your program into this device."

Tony smiled, clapped his hands, and gave the order directly.

"Yes, sir."

Jarvis's voice rang out. A blue beam of light shone from somewhere and landed directly on the phone.

"Let's see the results. Jarvis, call Little Pepper."

Tony picked up the phone and gave the command.

"Yes, sir. Calling Ms. Potts."

This time, the voice actually came from the Xiao Mu Phone. With only a simple command, Jarvis had implanted its program into the phone.

It had to be said that Jarvis's capabilities truly made Chen Mu's eyes light up.
