Chapter 466: Being Subpoenaed

But some people were unwilling to do so. The Independent State of Samoa first protested to Star Laboratory. They believed that the island was closest to their country and should belong to their country.
Star Labs is just a multinational company and has no right to deploy armed forces on the island.
Salena directly refuted: "It's a joke, the distance is yours. Which international law stipulates it? The Federation of Beautiful Countries doesn't have this law."
The distance of more than 200 nautical miles is not even an exclusive economic zone.
There is no one who can speak for Samoa in the world. Star Laboratory has more than 20,000 technology patents, and this number is slowly increasing. All countries in the world need these patents.
The parent company, Zhou Group, has investments in dozens of countries. Who would help a country with a GDP of only 800 million US dollars to fight against Xingchen Laboratory?
In fact, Zhou Hao was also wondering why a country that didn't even have an army jumped out?
Other countries did not come forward simply because they were not sure whether the research results released by Xingchen Laboratory were true.
However, Zhou Hao doesn't care if the argument is still in the verbal stage. He is currently at the Star Laboratory headquarters in Los Angeles.
He frowned and looked at Tony lying on the examination bed. His palladium poisoning was already very serious. Zhou Hao gave him his best resurrection pill, but unfortunately the effect was getting worse and worse.
Xiaoyu was controlling the machine to check Tony's body, while Zhou Hao was thinking about whether he should advance the plot.
"Injection volume increased by 25%!" Xiaoyu said
A female assistant started injecting Tony's meridians. Originally, one pack was enough, but now it has been increased to three packs. He comes every week for injection treatment.
This medicine is extracted from blood orchid and is only available in Xingchen Laboratory.
"Haha, Zhou, do you think I will invent a kind of armor in the future that will allow me to inject drugs 24 hours a day?" Tony said with a smile.
His vulnerability will not be exposed to anyone. He knows that he is going to die and the medicine will eventually lose its effectiveness.
Zhou Hao smiled and said: "Don't worry, that day won't happen. I heard that you will attend the hearing of the Senate Armed Services Committee tomorrow morning. Do you want Xingchen Laboratory to help you share some of the pressure?"
So far, everyone thinks that the Iron Armor is Tony Stark's unique invention, and the Seraph Armor is also his subordinate. Tony has been under all the pressure.
If it was a healthy Tony, he would definitely refuse proudly, but his current mentality has reached the point where he is about to collapse, and he thinks he is about to die.
So Zhou Hao had to stand up and protect them, so he nodded and smiled: "Okay, I hope to go to the hearing with you, and then go to Monaco to watch the F1 car together!"
Of course Zhou Hao doesn't want to miss any plot, he is in urgent need of points now.
Tony looked a little haggard and wanted to tell him to look at the model of the future city left by his father. That thing contained the molecular formulas of new elements.
But in this way, he might miss the memory of his father. Tony's feelings towards his father are very complicated, with both love and resentment.
He has always admired his father, but he felt that his father didn't care about him at all. No matter how good he was when he was a child, he never praised himself once. This made him deeply resentful of Howard.
That video helped him let go of his years of resentment.
----------------------------------------
Washington, D.C., inside the Senate House.
Zhou Hao and Pepper were sitting together, while Tony was in the first row. Next to him was Salena, who was wearing a gray slim-fitting suit for women, showing off her beautiful figure and the domineering air of a strong woman.
She is currently the executive director of Star Labs. The current total market value of Star Labs is around US$600 billion, while the Stark Group has reached two trillion.
After Salena announced yesterday that Star Laboratory was also involved in the design of the steel armor, the stock price soared again. However, two hours later, Salena received a summons from the Senate Military Assembly, and the stock price stabilized again.
Stark Group now ranks first in terms of total market value, while Zhou Biotechnology Group ranks fifth with a market value of about 100 million.
How arrogant is the federal government of the United States? It is attacking two of the world's top five multinational companies at the same time. These two companies can be said to control one-third of the world's high-tech.
Stark used to focus on weapons research and had many military patents, but the total number was not large.
But Star Laboratory is different. It has more than 20,000 patents, most of which are for civilian use, and a small number of them are also used in the military.
The senator who summoned them this time was a greasy fat man named Stern, who was a lurking Hydra.
"Ms. Russell, is the Seraph Armor a weapon designed by your company?" Stern was still very polite to Salena.
Salena smiled and said: "Congressman, I don't agree with you calling it a weapon. Everyone knows that Mr. Zhou Hao, the boss of our company, and Stark are good friends..."
At this time, Tony turned around and winked at Zhou Hao. Zhou Hao was wearing sunglasses and ignored him.
But the reporters' cameras were all focused on him at this time. Unfortunately, they could never take a clear photo.
"When Zhou knew that Stark had been kidnapped, he was very anxious. Later, when Mr. Stark returned safely, they got together to invent something to protect themselves. This was just a piece of clothing to protect themselves, and flying was just a quick escape, so they couldn't.
Call it a battle armor! It’s not a weapon! At most it’s a high-tech body armor.”
Buzz! There was an uproar at the scene. The ability to tell lies with open eyes is actually acquired.
"As for you saying that you want to hand it over to the federal government, I would like to ask you, don't the citizens of the United States even have the qualifications to protect themselves? Can the government rob citizens' things at will?"
Stern pressed the remote control with a smile, and a picture immediately appeared on the huge electronic screen, showing Zhou Hao wearing a battle suit...
He wanted to play the scene of Zhou Hao's battle, but at this moment, the screen suddenly went black.
Then there was a scene of Captain Jack standing coquettishly on the bow of the ship...
Everyone was confused for a while, and the technician stepped forward to check it, and said with a cold sweat: "The video in here has been washed out!"
"Mr. Stark, did you do this?" Stern immediately asked Tony. Everyone knew that Stark had an artificial intelligence assistant, Jarvis.
Tony said with an innocent face: "Do you think I am a god? I didn't do anything, I didn't even take out my mobile phone!"
Stern said calmly: "Okay! Mr. Stark, do you have a special weapon?" He turned to Stark.
Tony denied: "I didn't!"
"you have not?"
"Yes, I don't. It depends on how you define the word weapon," Tony shrugged.
"Iron Man Weapons!"
Tony shook his head: "Iron Man is not a weapon!"
"Then how would you describe it?"
Tony: "It is what it is! Mr. Dinner! Well, he is a high-tech prosthetic limb!"
Boom! Everyone present laughed, and the team of lawyers behind him also laughed. Okay! A high-tech bulletproof vest and a high-tech prosthetic limb.
But the general sitting next to Zhou Hao couldn't laugh. He just came to ask for the steel armor.
Chapter completed!
