Meeting Tony Stark!

"Swiss New year eve party Bern 2000 ?"

Raphael narrowed his eyes slightly and thought for a while.

Soon, he made a decision.

"Wait for your reply to Ross, and say that 100 million US dollars can be given, but the price of arms will be reduced by 40%!"

He didn't say anything, but added a 10% discount to Ross's original conditions.

Zemo and Jonny looked at each other and nodded to each other.

They did not disagree with Raphael's decision.

"I plan to go to the Party in person."

Raphael said so.

"It's just for an exposition, I don't need too many people, it's enough to have Zemo to accompany me."

Before Pietro and Wanda were ready to try, he opened his mouth to dismiss the brothers and sisters.

Zemo glanced at Raphael approvingly, he knew exactly what Raphael wanted to do.

This Bern 2000 in Switzerland is huge, bringing together almost all the technology genius today.

even Tony Stark, the star of technology, has accepted the invitation of theirs expo.

It can be said that this year's technology expo is second only to the Stark Technology Expo held by Howard that year.

What is the most important thing in the 21st century?

Talent.

In a grand science and technology exposition, countless young people with fantastic ideas are waiting for investment, waiting for the insight to discover their talents, and these people are the most precious wealth in the world.

Technology is the primary productive force. In the Vongola family alone, there are many technologies that can only be reproduced by scientists.

But Sokovia is a backward country with a severe shortage of scientific researchers.

The few doctors of physics were hidden by the government as if they were treasures. Even if they were not hidden and given to Raphael, their level was far from being qualified to study the dying Will flame.

Therefore, it is imperative for Raphael to go to Switzerland to participate in the Science and Technology Expo and recruit a group of outstanding talents.

And this is precisely what Zemo admires Raphael.

You must know that in countries with backward technology, most people do not realize the importance of technology at all, and the organizations established by these people only recruit their subordinates to see if they can be loyal or unfaithful, and will never accept any scientific researchers.

Please note that the organizations mentioned here even include some government departments.

At Raphael's age, it is almost impossible in Sokovia to fully realize the importance of scientific and technological talents.

Coupled with the favorable treatment that Ross provided for Sokovia, Zemo actually planned that if Raphael couldn't bear the 100 million, he would preach to Raphael.

On the surface, it seems that the reduction of the cost of buying arms and the cancellation of the transit tax have nothing to do with the Vongola family, but in fact, the arms business in Sokovia is handled by Zemo, and 40% of the cost is not a big deal. .

They can buy the same weapon for almost half the money.

Not to mention the transit tax here. For trade between different countries, transit tax is always an unavoidable cost.

Don't look at the fact that many countries have abolished the transit tax on the surface, but in fact it is just a name change.

The federal suspension of the transit tax for Sokovia merchants is equivalent to fully opening the market to Sokovia, which is actually a very risky act.

Raphael didn't know what Ross was thinking, let alone how the American Government got him through.

But at least for Sokovia, this will greatly promote the recovery of the economy, and more and more people will embark on the path of doing business.

Of course, there will be more and more people who lack the principal and need loans to start a business, not to mention that the Vongola family can also do some serious business, which has many benefits.

To sum up, Raphael did not disappoint him at all, and Zemo didn't need to explain his interests to him.

So, Raphael and the others returned to the Vongola Manor first, while Zemo began to raise money to give it to Ross.

The time soon came to the end of December.

Raphael and Zemo set off several days early.

Although Sokovia Airport has been rebuilt, flights have largely resumed.

But Sokovia did not reach Switzerland's airway, and had to fly to neighboring Germany first, and then transfer to a Swiss flight.

Jonny and others are responsible for staying in Sokovia.

December 31, Bern, Switzerland.

A huge guild hall covering an area of ​​hundreds of hectares is located in this modern city with a very medieval architectural style, giving people a very distinct sense of technology.

At this moment, a pure black Maserati parked at the entrance of the clubhouse, and immediately a staff member ran over to ask for the admission ticket.

The window of the back seat slowly rolled down, and Raphael handed the admission ticket to the staff.

The other party was obviously stunned when he saw Raphael. The boy in front of him was a little too young.

From the rolled down window, you can see that there is only a driver and this young man in the car. It is estimated that he does not know which big family son came out to play.

"Sir, you can enter now, sorry for disturbing your time."

After confirming that there was no problem with the admission ticket, the staff signaled that the two of them could enter.

Rafael and Zemo got out of the car and walked directly into the venue, and the staff was responsible for parking.

There are many such staff at the entrance of the venue. Every time a guest arrives, a staff member will go up to check the admission ticket and help the other party to park the vehicle.

As soon as he entered the hall, Raphael was attracted by the dazzling array of high-tech exhibits.

From concept cars to concept phones can be seen here, but these are not the protagonists.

Because in the hall in the center of the hall, the world's largest technology genius is standing on the stage, enjoying the cheers of countless people under the spotlight.

He is the most eye-catching inventor of this era, he is the largest arms dealer in the world, he the one who has seen countless women, and he is one of the richest people in the world.

Tony Stark!

The 29-year-old tech genius stood on the stage in high spirits. His eloquence was very good, and a casual sentence could make the female guests in the audience burst into laughter.

In the eyes of most people, Tony is giving a speech on the future development direction of Stark Industries at this time, and from time to time he tells two humorous jokes to make everyone happy.

But Raphael clearly felt the other party's absent-mindedness.

Taking a closer look, right in front of Tony, a young and beautiful woman is being amused by Tony's exaggerated metaphor...

Raphael knew, that woman should be Maya Hansen who researched the Extremis virus.

The number of genius scientists in the Marvel universe is now well-known in the world.

It's a pity that Vongola can't recruit talents of this level.

At this moment, Zemo next to him spoke
