After chatting for a while, Yves saw Howard come in with a beautiful woman in his arms.
"Hey, Yves, it's rare to see you without a partner. Haha, is there still no woman who wants you? Want me to find one?" Howard greeted as usual.
"Aren't you the one who can't live without? By the way, did you just arrive?"
"Oh, Mr. Howard, hello, hello. It's been a long time since we last chatted." Robert stood up and said hello. He knew Howard was wealthy as an arms dealer; of course, the money flowed in, and he was envious!
"You?" Howard raised his eyebrows, seemingly oblivious to the man trying to greet him.
Robert also raised his eyebrows. Although he was annoyed that this damn man had forgotten about him, he still endured it.
He had to establish a good relationship with Howard if he wanted to cooperate. The spare parts and ammunition business was very lucrative, so he tried to get into the industry as well.
It's just that the weapons industry is almost monopolized by Wayne Enterprises and Stark Industries.
"I am Robert, chairman of Queen Industries."
"Oh, so it's you... Hey, Yves, I'll meet you with Thomas, that guy is here too." Howard nodded towards Robert, then he ignored him.
Uh, Yves gave Robert his business card, then he went to follow Howard. He was only interested in Robert's wife, not Robert himself. As for cooperating with him? He's not short of money, so he can take this cooperation for granted.
As the chairman of Wayne Enterprises, Thomas is not too arrogant and is approachable. If he were to walk down the street, no one would think that this ordinary-looking handsome uncle is a billionaire!
"Howard, you coming too? Hey, it's not good to fool around with women all day."
"Didn't we have the same hobby when we were young? Yves, forgive this old man, he likes to ramble." Howard was dissatisfied when his friend tried to advise him. Clearly, they both had the same hobbies back then!
His friend wants him to get married? Sorry, he doesn't believe in love! Wouldn't it be cool to be romantic without the constraints of a wife?
"Hello, Mr. Thomas, long time no see. Is Mrs. Martha not coming with you?" Yves greeted as he looked at Howard and Wayne standing together.
Iron Man and Batman's father are strangely friends; he wants to know if Iron Man and Batman will fight side by side in the future.
"She's pregnant and needs to rest at home. Martha never ceases to praise your brilliance, Yves." Thomas had quite a bit of respect for the young scientist.
Inventions accelerate the progress of science, technology, and the environment.
Besides, he knew that Yves had made Brooklyn the only place with the lowest crime rate in the United States!
"Oh? Congratulations, it looks like Wayne Enterprises will have an heir." Yves was surprised to hear this news. Was Martha pregnant? In other words, Bruce Wayne will soon be born, right?
The plot develops a little too quickly, but that's normal; after all, this world is real and a hybrid of the Marvel and DC universes.
"What?! You bastard! Didn't you agree to be single together?! I haven't even found a wife yet, and you're now going to have offspring?!" Like a woman who got cheated, Howard pulled at his best friend's collar while shouting... um, there seemed to be a certain relationship between them.
"Ahem, Howard, please let go, a lot of people are watching. It's impossible for me to continue being single. I advise you to find a girlfriend soon, your youth will soon be gone." Thomas felt a little embarrassed by his good friend's actions.
Seeing everyone looking at the two of them, Howard quickly pushed Thomas away. Otherwise, news of the quarrel between the chairmen of Stark Industries and Wayne Enterprises would spread!
"Ahem, you are indeed unreliable. Huh, then I will also find a lover then give birth to one child. Later I will tell my son to bully your son every day, wait... this is a good idea! Hahaha!"
Thomas looked at his no-longer-young friend with a blank stare. Thanks to being single for so long, his friend got weirder daily.
"Ahem, Yves, earlier I heard that you wanted to develop new energy. Have you gotten any new leads? I feel very optimistic about this one project."
"If you manage to make it, then let me know. The environment in Gotham City is pretty bad right now, and there's no way to fix it." In this industrialized age, waste and gas have polluted the environment.
No wonder the Atlanteans want to start a war with the land people; the islanders are indeed very indifferent to their environment!
"So far it's just planning. Actually, I recently researched a new type of calculator."
"Besides the technical issues, there is also the issue of data accuracy. It takes an entire day to calculate a piece of data, which is a waste of time, and this calculator was created to help with the problem of slow development of new technologies." Yves throws a bomb containing important information.
"If I'm not mistaken, Howard also started developing a new project called the Ark Reactor, it seems that he had problems calculating large amounts of data."
"Besides that, I am also building a supercomputer. It's going well so far. The Jetpack that I had announced earlier was successfully created quickly with the help of the Supercomputer's calculations."
"No need to waste paper anymore because this computer can also be used to take notes. It's very practical and convenient." Yves said quite proudly. All this research was done with sweat and hard work!
Thomas and Howard glanced at each other. The two were classmates, and they were both intelligent. Naturally, they knew the limitless business opportunities contained in the technology created by Yves.
If what Yves says is true, then the technology can also be used in other industries, which may earn Yves a Noble Prize!
