Using multiple accounts, in large batches but small amounts, they swept the secondary market. With artificial intelligence like J.A.R.V.I.S. performing the most detailed operation,
Logically speaking, with the vast family funds of the Stark Family as backing, Pepper was confident she could increase Tony's shares in Stark Industries to over 40%.
Unexpectedly, after only one day of operation, J.A.R.V.I.S. keenly detected that another group of people was quietly acquiring Stark Industries' shares in the financial market.
Under J.A.R.V.I.S.'s investigation, coupled with Boss Tang not deliberately concealing anything,
That's why Tang Song received Tony Stark's invitation.
"What is J.A.R.V.I.S.'s underlying logic? If he were given true 'freedom,' could he evolve into a real artificial intelligence?"
Tang Song ignored Pepper. Instead, his gaze turned towards Tony Stark.
"Freedom? What aspect are you referring to? For me, J.A.R.V.I.S. is more like a family member than an artificial intelligence!"
Tony Stark shrugged. While speaking, he accidentally spilled more than half of the bitter melon juice in his hand.
Pretending not to see Pepper's "fierce" eyes, Tony Stark put down the bitter melon juice with a sigh of relief.
"If you're referring to the Three Laws of Robotics, that underlying logic itself has problems. Using it to restrain artificial intelligence will be counterproductive!"
The Three Laws of Robotics: A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm; A robot must obey the orders given it by human beings except where such orders would conflict with the First Law; A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Laws.
This came from Isaac Asimov's "I, Robot" in 1950.
Many people regarded these three laws as a sacred text, but it was clear that Tony Stark was somewhat dismissive.
"The most miraculous thing about human science is its ability to turn some impossibilities into possibilities. Some of the most basic code, who would have thought it could also form life!"
Tang Song and Tony Stark engaged in a heated discussion on the topic of artificial intelligence.
"Tang, if it were plants or fungi, I'd believe they could develop civilization after millions of years of evolution. But a rock, if it truly has the heaven and earth energy you speak of, then that has already gone beyond the scope of science!"
Just as Tang Song and Tony Stark were fiercely discussing the philosophical question of whether a rock could produce a soul after being injected with energy,
Boom! A loud explosion.
With a violent explosion, the entire villa seemed to shake.
"Stinger missile!"
Tony Stark's complexion changed drastically. As a major arms dealer, he could identify the origin of the explosive just by the sound.
Although the villa's construction incorporated many bulletproof structures, it was certainly not enough to defend against this kind of missile.
"Sir, the outer bulletproof glass has been completely destroyed. The inner bulletproof structure is 38% damaged. It is recommended to go to the lower level for shelter!"
J.A.R.V.I.S.'s meticulous prompt sounded.
"Open the perimeter surveillance footage."
Tony Stark ordered J.A.R.V.I.S. to display the surveillance outside the villa.
Although many surveillance facilities had been destroyed by the missile attack, a projection appeared.
The general situation outside came into view for the few people present.
Tony Stark and Pepper Potts were immediately startled.
Outside the villa, there were shadowy figures, at least several hundred of them.
Looking at their weapons and equipment, it was clear they were ready for a major fight.
More than a dozen Humvees were mounted with heavy machine guns and even rocket launchers.
A burly blond man, nearly six feet three inches tall, was kneeling, with two muscular black men behind him carrying a Stinger missile.
Among the crowd, a bald man with sharp, predatory eyes was particularly conspicuous. He was encased in iron armor, with only his head exposed, directing the mercenaries' attack.
"J.A.R.V.I.S., open the elevator!"
"As you wish, sir!"
Ding. With the prompt sound, a hidden elevator door opened.
"Pepper, Tang, and you guys, come with me!"
Tony Stark led the way, taking Tang Song, Pepper Potts, Lane, and Natasha Romanoff into the elevator.
The elevator quickly reached the basement. Tony Stark walked out quickly.
The basement was very spacious, about four hundred square meters in area, with mechanical arms and mechanical parts extending everywhere.
Of course, what first caught Tang Song's gaze was a gold and red iron armor.
Boss Tang's first reaction upon seeing this armor was to touch the Five Yin Pouch in his inner pocket.
However, seeing Tony Stark hurriedly "wearing" the armor,
Tang Song rubbed his nose and gave up a certain idea. The technological content of the iron armor wasn't as advanced as imagined, at least before the Mark V model.
The two most valuable things Tony Stark researched for the iron armor were not the armor itself, but the Arc Reactor energy system and the intelligent control system.
The former goes without saying; without the Arc Reactor, even if the iron armor could be built, it would only be a defective product that charges for five hours and flies for five minutes.
As for the control system, the iron armor was essentially a single-person aircraft.
An ordinary human's nerves simply couldn't keep up with the Iron Armor's reaction speed. Most of the Iron Armor's operation was performed by artificial intelligence.
Click, click, click. While Boss Tang was observing, Tony Stark was already clad in the armor.
The gold and red armor looked extremely flashy.
The Mark II armor was made of super-strength titanium alloy, a material used in satellites, making it sturdy and durable.
"Pepper, Tang, you guys stay here and don't go out. I'll go deal with those terrorists!"
After Tony Stark finished speaking, he put on his faceplate. Above his head, a two-meter circular opening leading directly to the sky was revealed.
Whoosh! The Iron Armor's feet and hands sprayed blue thrust flames, carrying Tony Stark soaring into the sky.
The gold and red figure rapidly moved through the air, occasionally firing cigar-sized missiles, causing the armed personnel outside the villa to be thrown about.
With the speed and defense of the Mark II, ordinary firearms had no way of harming Tony Stark.
...
Tang Song did not hide in the basement. Instead, he came to the villa's terrace, leaning on his cane, watching Iron Man battle the terrorists with interest.
"Use Stinger missiles!"
Obadiah, watching Tony Stark flying in the air, angrily ordered.
Because of the butterfly effect caused by Tang Song, the original plot had deviated slightly.
Obadiah had been removed from access clearance to Stark's villa early on,
Tony Stark was also much more wary of him, avoiding the scene in the original plot where his Arc Reactor was stolen.
Without the Arc Reactor, although Obadiah also built an Iron Monger based on the fragments provided by the Ten Rings,
This big guy was clearly more of an ornament without sufficient energy support.
However, the gunmen Obadiah hired were also well-trained. At his order,
Several shoulder-launched racks were aimed at the gold and red figure in the air.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh...
Although Tony Stark fired missiles and took down two mercenaries carrying shoulder-mounted Stingers,
Three Stingers still successfully launched into the air...
Equipped with heat-seeking sensors, the Stinger missiles chased Tony Stark into the sky.
"Boss!"
Lane appeared on the terrace at some point, holding a black Beretta M9 handgun in each hand.
"Hmm," Tang Song looked back at him, picked up his cane, and sat down on a wicker chair.
