Los Angeles, Stark Industrial Division.

Press conference.

Eddie and Phil squeezed into the crowd, holding up the camera, ensuring that they could take pictures of Tony Stark who had disappeared for three months as soon as possible.

From unknown life and death to return to the land.

During the three months between, what did Tony Stark go through, what did he come back to hold a press conference, and what did he want to express...

This is something everyone wants to know.

Not just a reporter.

News of Tony Stark's return has spread on the Internet.

Netizens who learned the news also want to know what this talented inventor, playboy, billionaire... a life winner with countless titles will say at the press conference.

Anton and Betty were outside the crowd, looking at a black car, docking at the gate of Stark Industrial Division.

"He's here."

Suddenly, Anton looked at the passenger's figure and spoke lightly.

Betty looked at it intently.

Tony Stark, with a bandage hanging in his right hand, got off from the passenger seat under the greeting of an old bald man.

Still wearing a sexy mustache and suit and ties.

On the surface, Tony Stark's first appearance after his disappearance has not changed much from three months ago.

But Betty could capture that there was an indescribable change in this person.

There is a huge difference in temperament.

"I have a hunch, and he will say something incredible next."

Anton held his hands together and watched Tony Stark walk onto the podium.

At this time.

"Anton, we're meeting again."

A familiar voice came, and when I turned around, it was Colson from SHIELD.

He didn't seem surprised that Anton would appear here.

Relatively, Anton was not surprised to meet him here.

“Can you talk alone?”

Colson glanced at Betty beside Anton and said seriously: "Something I want to confirm with you."

"certainly."

Anton glanced at Betty and followed Colson to the outside of the crowd.

Then he asked, "What do you have to tell me?"

Colson said: "Abdai Stein, we have not found evidence of his murder of Tony Stark, but we found that Tony's disappearance is related to a group called the Ten Rings Gang. This organization has a strong force in Afghanistan and has secretly colluded with many underground organizations..."

"What the hell are you going to say?" Anton interrupted Colson without hesitation.

Colson said: "Do you know about this organization called the Ten Rings Gang?"

"Ten Rings Gang?"

Anton touched his chin and shook his head and said, "I don't understand, I can't help you."

He did not lie.

Information about the Ten Rings Gang in the Marvel Cinematic Universe is very obscure.

In the early world view of the entire movie universe, except for the name "Mandarin", the Ten Rings Gang did not reveal any important information. Even Mandarin who was caught in the Iron Man 3 was fake.

If you want to know what you know, Anton can only judge from his brief understanding of the comic world view.

This can only be considered unknowns.

"All right."

Seeing this, Colson did not ask: "If there is any relevant information, please notify us at any time."

Anton nodded.

Immediately afterwards, he saw Colson walk into the venue and find Tony's assistant, Pepper Potz, and said something.

At the same time, the entire venue was in an uproar and a burst of exclamations rang out.

A group of reporters rushed to the podium like crazy and surrounded Tony Stark.

Apparently, Tony had already made that important decision.

Close Stark Industries’ Weapon Manufacturing Department.

As an arms giant, closing the weapons manufacturing department shows that Stark Industries will withdraw from the arms industry they are proud of.

This is absolutely shocking news.

Betty stood in the venue and listened to all Tony Stark's remarks.

Suddenly I recalled Anton's prophecy.

“…He will say something incredible next.”

Betty let out a breath and murmured, "This is really incredible."

Da da da da da!

The sound of footsteps sounded in my ears again.

Looking back, it was Anton with a smile on his face. He was looking at Tony on the podium, still talking about something on his own, with a calm expression.

"Anton, you guessed it!"

Betty still had a look of surprise on her face: "You absolutely couldn't imagine what Tony Stark had just said."

"Closing Stark Industry's Weapon Manufacturing Department?" Anton asked with a smile.

"You heard it?"

Betty was stunned and then said, "Do you know how terrifying this news is? There will be a giant in the arms industry to withdraw, which will be a huge blow to Stark Industry. The board members of Stark Industry will never allow Tony Stark to make such a decision, but Tony Stark is the soul of Stark Industry. He said this, which means..."

Anton held his chest with his hands: "It means that Stark Industry will have civil strife, and the outside world is declining Stark Industry. The valuation of Stark Industry will drop by 40 points tomorrow."

"That's right."

Betty nodded and suddenly became a little admirable: "This guy is so brave. I really don't know what he has experienced in Afghanistan."

"This is his story, it has nothing to do with us."

Anton smiled and ordered: "From tomorrow, remember to pay attention to Stark Industrial's stocks, buy as much as possible at the lowest point, and use all the resources I can mobilize to buy as much as I can."

"What?"

Betty was shocked: "When you dare to enter the market to buy Stark Industrial's stock at this time? Are you not afraid of losing money?"

"You said it yourself, Stark's soul figure is Stark." Anton said, "I'm confident in Tony Stark."

"You're so crazy!"

Betty's face was full of discomfort.

In her opinion, this was undoubtedly a big bet.

Judging from the amount of funds Anton can mobilize, if he loses the bet, it will be a disaster loss.

"Betty, how much you don't understand now, you will admire me in the future."

Anton laughed.

During the conversation between the two, Tony Stark was taken away, and Obadai came to the stage to speak in place of Tony.

"The main purpose of today is to inform everyone that Tony is back and he is in good health... We will hold an internal meeting to discuss everything he said just now, and we will inform everyone of the final comments!"

Obadai Stein explained while showing a grin that was even worse than crying.

At this time, Tony had followed his assistant Pepper Pots and driver Happy Hogan, and drove away.

Before Tony left, he met Anton standing at the door.

He clearly recognized Anton and showed some surprise.

But he didn't say anything, just looked at Anton, nodded slightly, and said hello.

"This kid doesn't seem so arrogant!"

At the end of the press conference, before Anton and Betty left, they thought of the look when Tony Stark left, and felt a little moved.

Since Tony Stark left Afghanistan, he has been no longer the simple, playboy with many titles.

All these titles will be replaced by a nickname soon.

Iron Man.

...

"Anton, what are you thinking?"

On the way back, Betty woke up Anton who was thinking and curiously said, "You have been strange since the beginning."

"nothing."

Anton came back to his senses and said lightly: "I just think today's press conference is very interesting."

Witnessing the birth of Iron Man is like witnessing history.
