The Commander's Return!

"Special Operations Team Commander?!"

This is a name even more well-known than Captain America. Even seventy years later, people still often talk about him. In terms of his historical status, he is one of the most prominent figures in modern world history.

A certain country started a war and almost conquered the world by force. However, the Commander almost single-handedly wiped out their top combat force, the HYDRA Legion, which was equipped with advanced weapons and had a powerful fighting force, thus ending the war and maintaining world peace.

Furthermore, in order to stop HYDRA's insane World-Ending Plan destroy the world and protect major cities around the world from destruction, the Commander chose to sacrifice himself, resolutely piloting the super bomber that HYDRA used to carry out the World-Ending Plan into the sea, saving the lives of hundreds of millions of civilians.

His immense strength and savior-like achievements have earned him the admiration and worship of countless people. However, what he left behind for the world was an image of him wrapped in a full-body black Armored Combat Suit, carrying a sword and shield, and holding two guns. Most people only knew him as the Commander of the Special Operations Team, but few knew his name.

Therefore, upon seeing Chen Mo's name on the contract, the Stark Industries directors did not connect it to the Commander.

It wasn't until Tony Stark revealed Chen Mo's identity that they realized the real owner of Stark Industries, the mysterious controlling shareholder who held 60% of the shares, was actually the legendary Special Operations Team Commander!

However, considering Howard Stark's past identity, his close relationship with the Commander, and the various legends they knew about the Commander, they were not surprised.

It is said that the Commander comes from a mysterious and ancient family with a net worth of hundreds of millions, making him incredibly wealthy. Howard Stark is obsessed with developing advanced technologies such as anti-gravity, spending money like water. No matter how much money Stark Industries earns, it's not enough for him to spend.

Given that one of them has more money than he can spend and the other has more money than he can ever spend, and that they are also very close comrades-in-arms, it is not surprising that Howard sold Stark Industries to Chen Mo.

It makes sense that Chen Mo never participated in company management and handed over all the profits to Howard for research.

Only...

"The Commander died in the plane crash seventy years ago. Even if he were still alive, he would be over ninety years old now. How could this young man be the Commander!"

One of the directors looked at Chen Mo's young face and simply didn't believe what Tony was saying.

"Tony! Don't treat us like idiots!"

Other board members also spoke out against Tony Stark.

"The Commander saved the world back then. Our parents and elders were able to survive because of him. If this person really is the Commander, does that mean we all have to call him uncle?"

"I think calling him Grandpa is more appropriate!"

"Ha ha!"

"Tony, you're so naive! You actually came up with this kind of plan to regain control of the company. Do you think we're idiots? That we'd believe such an obvious lie!"

"Absurd!"

"It's absolutely ridiculous!"

The board members simply did not believe Tony Stark's claim that Chen Mo, who sat in front of them and looked even younger than Tony, was the Commander.

They assumed that Tony had discovered the share transfer agreement and learned that the company's mysterious shareholder was actually the Special Operations Team Commander, and that he wanted to use this to regain control of the company and take back control of Stark Industries.

However, in their eyes, Tony's idea was too naive. He actually found a young man who looked impressive and wanted them to believe that he was the Commander had been missing for seventy years. It was simply wishful thinking!

He doesn't actually think they'd believe such a ridiculous lie, does he? That's utterly absurd!

Tony Stark looked at Chen Mo with a helpless expression when he saw that no one believed him.

Chen Mo didn't react much to the noise from the crowd below. He looked up at the time and spoke to Pepper Potts, who was standing next to Tony.

"Turn on the TV."

Although Pepper didn't understand Chen Mo's intention, she still turned around, picked up the remote control from the table next to her, and turned on the TV hanging on one side of the conference room wall.

The television appears to be broadcasting a press conference live. Judging from the signs on the backdrop, it seems to be a press conference held by the military.

Seeing that Chen Mo didn't speak, Pepper casually changed a few channels, only to find that they were all showing the same scene; it seemed that every TV station was broadcasting this press conference live.

Pepper sensed something was amiss, and then, as if struck by a sudden realization, stopped changing channels. All eyes turned to the television; they wanted to see what this imposter was up to.

Soon, the press conference officially began, and a middle-aged military officer in a crisp uniform with a resolute face walked onto the stage.

"Ladies and gentlemen, we are holding this press conference to announce something very important."

Three months ago, a polar expedition team discovered a giant aircraft that had been frozen for seventy years in an ice shelf.

"And in this plane, we made a huge discovery."

"The legendary hero who rescued the people of the world from the flames of war during World War II and made a great contribution to ending the war, the Special Operations Team Commander, was frozen in this plane and has been sleeping in the glacier with it for seventy years."

"And just recently, after being thawed, the Commander has successfully emerged from his frozen state, ending his seventy-year hibernation and waking up."

"That means our hero, the Special Operations Team Commander, has returned!"

"He will continue to dedicate himself to the great cause of protecting human security and maintaining world peace. From today onwards, the safety of the people has gained another powerful layer of protection!"

As the officer finished speaking, the entire press conference erupted in cheers, with everyone caught up in a state of excitement and fervor.

The legendary hero, the creator of world peace, the protector of human safety, the savior, Commander Chen Mo, did not die. Instead, he was frozen in the glacier for seventy years, and now, seventy years later, he has miraculously come back to life. All of this is simply too unbelievable and hard to believe.

An irrepressible excitement welled up in their hearts. The impact of this news was no less than learning that a true god had descended to earth. At the same time, a strong sense of security also arose. A hero who generously sacrificed himself to protect civilians from bombing was more reassuring than any lofty deity.

Leaving aside the excitement and fervor of the press conference and the world after learning this shocking news, the Stark Industries conference room was so quiet you could hear a pin drop.

The nine directors looked at Chen Mo with incredibly complex emotions: shock, fear, worry, hesitation, disbelief, and doubt.

"Even if the Commander really does come back to life, how will we know that you are the Commander?"

One director still refused to believe it, or rather, was unwilling to accept it; in other words, he wouldn't shed a tear until he saw the coffin.

Chen Mo glanced indifferently at the speaker. The director felt that Chen Mo's eyes were incredibly bright, as if they contained a divine light. The sharpness in them made him feel a chill run down his spine, as if the hairs on his body stood on end. He involuntarily turned his head away, avoiding Chen Mo's gaze.

At that moment, there was some activity at the press conference on television.

The middle-aged military officer reached out to silence the frenzied questions from the numerous reporters below. Only after they had finally quieted down did he continue speaking amidst their expectant gazes.

"In order to deal with special events that may threaten the safety of the Earth, Commander Chen Mo will assemble a Strategic Response Team composed of powerful Super Hero."

"This team will be personally led by Commander Chen Mo, and its first member is Tony Iron Man, the Super Hero with a powerful Iron Man suit, Stark recently destroyed the giant robot that attacked civilians!"

Now, the board members below had nothing more to say. Clearly, the imposing and aloof young man sitting in front of them was none other than Commander Chen Mo, who had been asleep for seventy years.

Seeing that everyone below had quieted down and had obviously accepted his identity, Chen Mo slowly began to speak.

"It seems no one questions my identity anymore."

All the board members below lowered their heads in silence, and Chen Mo continued.

"As the owner of Stark Industries, I have a few decisions to announce to you."

Chen Mo, who owns 60 percent of Stark Industries, has absolute control over the company. He doesn't need anyone's approval to make decisions, so he's simply announcing his own decisions.

The people below also knew this, and they listened intently with complicated and heavy hearts.

"First, dissolve the board of directors."

The expressions of all the directors changed simultaneously. They opened their mouths as if to say something, but they had no idea what to say.

Ignoring their reactions, Chen Mo continued.

"Second, the company will be delisted and all shares will be recalled."

The directors' expressions changed again. As a result, Tony and Chen Mo would control 90% of Stark Industries' shares. Their remaining 10% stake would completely lose its ability to influence the company's operations, and they would be completely removed from the company's management, enjoying no benefits other than dividends.

Moreover, once delisted, the company's valuation will definitely be greatly affected, the value of their shares will shrink significantly, and the losses will be enormous.

Before they could react, Chen Mo continued.

"Third, take back all the shares held by minority shareholders, and transfer them all, including my 60 percent stake, to Tony Stark to complete the privatization of the company."
