Tracking Progress on the To-Do List

After leaving Alexei, the super soldier, in Sokovia, Henry returned to Los Angeles with Kitty.

Whether befriending this Red Guardian seemed intent on going it alone was a good thing or a bad thing was hard for Henry to judge. After all, the other man's experiences were different from his pre-transmigration impressions from movies.

Without the tempering of a decade or two in prison, this guy's behavior cannot be predicted by comparing him to the impression of that greasy middle-aged man he'll later have. We can only wait and see.

On the West Coast of the United States, it was still not even noon. After unloading the armor at the Sheep Cave Valley Laboratory, and before they even had time to clean up, they took Kitty back to her apartment building. Henry, not forgetting his identity as a working man, set off for work at Stark Studios.

Stark Studios' most important work recently has been the computer-generated special effects for the movie "The Matrix." 4K cameras have reached the stage of commercialization, but hard drive capacity has become a constraint.

The issue of hard drives is a matter for the market to handle, or we can wait for Stark Industries to step in and resolve it. Right now, the only problem is that the hard drive capacity is small, requiring more frequent replacements, but it already meets the needs of movie watching.

While hard drives aren't much cheaper than film, their advantage lies in their reusability. With film, if a shot is ruined, it's ruined. But with a hard drive, you can simply delete certain segments to free up space again.

Another advantage of using digital cameras is that each shot is a separate file, which is much easier than processing film. Furthermore, creating special effects with digital files is cheaper because it eliminates the step of converting film to digital.

Therefore, in today's market, there is no situation where digital and film are equally competitive. The choice of equipment depends solely on the director's needs or the producer's cost considerations.

Once you reach the user training and marketing stage, Henry becomes less useful. Although for businesses, this is when the real battle begins.

To allow digital cameras to gain a foothold in the traditional film camera market, and even gradually expand their influence,

It requires a meticulous business strategy and finding a suitable business model.

However, there are quite a few people at Stark Studios who are passionate about this. These people, who have been immersed in Hollywood for much longer, know better than Henry where to start.

So the Kryptonian, who had no interest in their work, simply saw themselves as idiots who knew nothing but technology, watching the group below them conquer and plunder.

Anyway, as a CEO, even if you don't steal credit from your subordinates, you can still earn a reputation for being a "good leader."

Since it had been more than two days since he last entered the office, Henry naturally had to deal with the backlog of work. After spending about three minutes processing the pile of documents, Henry asked the chubby black woman to distribute them to the various departments.

He used to take a little time, pretending he hadn't processed it that quickly, but now Henry doesn't even bother pretending anymore. As long as he doesn't display his Super Speed in front of others, he doesn't care what they think.

He might end up being perceived by everyone as a lazy bum who just signs any document he sees, no matter what he does.

Since that's the case, there's no need to bother changing these people's impressions. This misunderstanding is fine too.

Henry, now wearing a new pair of glasses, looked just like usual, handling Stark Studios ' business through the computer. It was as if he were hiding behind the scenes, spying on the research and development or work progress of various teams, occasionally giving pointers to teams that were too slow.

In fact, Henry's glasses were connected to his own mainframe via retinal projection.

Henry placed tracking devices on or around all twenty-three items that S.H.I.E.L.D.. had identified for them.

We are now studying the movement data of this group of people using the data transmitted back from the trackers.

Unsurprisingly, some trackers malfunctioned. Fortunately, each target was grouped together, and each group still had at least one or two trackers that were still active and transmitting valuable information. Of the total twenty-three targets, none had completely escaped control.

The so-called valuable information refers to data collected over one or two weeks, showing that these people are essentially starting a work routine.

A relatively regular repeating trajectory emerged.

I go to a certain place at a fixed time every day, then wander around randomly within a small area, and finally return to the same place at the same time.

By observing occasional detours and comparing them with map and business information, one can discern whether the person is visiting a bar, restaurant, or strip club. This provides insights into their thoughts and behavioral patterns.

It's worth mentioning that after meeting Henry, this group moved to Toronto. This city, which is clearly in Canada, is often considered United States's backyard, receiving completely different treatment from the French-speaking region.

By hacking into the Toronto City Hall's work network, it was discovered that the 23 to-do items would be located in buildings registered under the name of Cyber Technology.

For a moment, Henry couldn't recall what kind of company this was.

But recalling John Garrett, the Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. orchestrated his meeting with these twenty-three people, Henry finally remembered the company's background.

In the TV series * Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.. *, John, codenamed "Clairvoyant," is one of the leaders of Hydra.

Garrett's main achievements include planning the Centipede Project and promoting the Deathlok Project.

The core of Centipede Project: Has the Extremis Virus been developed yet? Henry didn't ask Tony Stark if he had slept with a biologist, but casually left him with his brilliant formula.

However, the Deathlok Project was led by Cyber Technology, and it started very early on.

After suffering a near-death experience in 1990, John Garrett launched this "Death Warrior Project" project as a means of self-preservation.

While it cannot be confirmed that John Garrett's background is related to the television content, it's almost certain that Cyber Technology, a company located in Toronto Canada, is connected to him.

Further investigation into the company's publicly available information revealed something that shocked Henry: Cyber Technology and a certain company in the United States were frequently involved in commercial lawsuits, mainly concerning issues such as patent infringement.

This company is Omni Consumer Products, Omni Consumer Products located in Michigan, Detroit.

OCP for short, is one of the top conglomerates in Detroit, the Motor City.

Cyber Technology's publicly disclosed main business is robotic prosthetics. In addition to robotic prosthetics, 0CP Enterprise also develops and researches robots.

Don't think that robotics research should involve humanoid robots like Boston Dynamics ' Atlas or Sony's QRIO, capable of mimicking human movements. Those are things that only exist in the 21st century.

In fact, robotic arms used in automated production lines in the manufacturing industry fall under the category of robotics. As the Motor City, it's not surprising that Detroit has a company specializing in this field.

The reason I'm specifically mentioning this company is because Henry remembered something very important. In this Marvel Universe, there's a film series that can be considered a science fiction milestone that hasn't appeared yet.

That's RoboCop.

Both companies have developed super soldiers who were resurrected using dead soldiers or police officers as the base material and equipped with robotic prosthetics.

At Cyber Technology, it's naturally the infamous Deathlok Project. And at 0CP Enterprise, it's the RoboCop project, which hasn't been rumored yet.

This shows that the hidden advanced technology in this world isn't just something that will later be revealed by famous Marvel superheroes or supervillains.

In Henry's mind, the level of danger had increased slightly.
