Chapter 520: Howard Gives Shares

"Uncle." As soon as Li Nan got out of the car, Tony, who was dressed in a black suit, greeted him.

Gently hugging little Tony, Li Nan comforted softly: "Let's mourn and change." ”

Tony's eyes were a little red, but he was calm, nodded and said, "Don't worry, I'm fine." ”

Howard gave birth to Tony in his fifties, which can be regarded as an old child, but a genius like him who is keen on invention and creativity, will always spend much longer time in the laboratory than with his son, so the relationship between father and son is not very close.

Tony perfectly inherited Howard's genes, and the young man was not only handsome and dashing, but also a genius from an early age.

At the age of four, Tony made his own circuit board, designed a car engine at the age of six, and graduated from MIT at the age of seventeen. In addition, Tony, like his father Howard when he was younger, has an extraordinary love for beautiful women.

There are many guests at the funeral, and there are three types of guests.

Because Howard was an arms supplier to the U.S. military before his death, many military people came, most of whom were acquaintances of Li Nan.

The largest number of people are the chairmen of major groups from all over the world, and Tony Jr., who has never worked in Stark Group, is not familiar with these people, so Li Nan and the vice president of Stark Industries, Obadia. Stan is in charge of entertaining them.

The last group of people came from S.H.I.E.L.D., and as one of the founders of S.H.I.E.L.D., Carter, Natasha, and Fury, the current director of S.H.I.E.L.D., also came to New York for the funeral.

Li Nan had never met the black chief, and Carter introduced: "Li Nan, this is Nick. Fury, Fury, this is the Li Nan I often talk about. ”

This tall and sturdy black man shook Li Nan's hand enthusiastically and said with a smile: "I heard about the blood gun and the name of Captain America on the battlefield of World War II, but unfortunately I never had the opportunity to see it. ”

"Oh?" Li Nan looked at the black director who looked to be in his thirties, and asked with some surprise, "Director Fury also participated in World War II?" ”

Fury raised his hand and pointed to his blindfolded left eye: "Eighty-second Infantry Division, this is the memorial I got at that time." ”

After learning that the other party had also participated in World War II, Li Nan couldn't help but get a little closer to the new director of S.H.I.E.L.D., plus the two had a lot of common topics, so they chatted very speculatively for a while.

After chatting for a while, Fury said, "Mr. Li, you are also the founder of S.H.I.E.L.D., and you used to be a senior advisor to the bureau. Although you have some problems with the previous Director of S.H.I.E.L.D., this is no longer the case, so I intend to invite you back. ”

"Come back?" Li Nan smiled: "S.H.I.E.L.D. is strong now, what else do you want me to do as an old man?" ”

Fury looked around and saw that no one was paying attention to this place, so he whispered: "There are more and more mutants in the world now, and there are some guys who use high technology to do evil. If we continue to use the traditional way to deal with these criminals, it will become inadequate, so I plan to form a special team to protect the country and the people. ”

Fury's concern is also very reasonable, as time goes by, a large number of mutants have appeared in countries around the world, many of whom will use their abilities to illegally obtain wealth after awakening, and want to deal with these people, with the police and the army are not very effective.

Speaking of which, whether it's Magneto's brotherhood or Professor X's X-Men, it's more than enough to deal with an army.

Thinking of some of the news he got, Li Nan asked curiously: "I heard that your S.H.I.E.L.D. has long had this kind of team, and the Russians have encountered two agents who can change sizes, they should be from your S.H.I.E.L.D., right?" ”

Fury hesitated for a few seconds and admitted calmly, "That's right, you're talking about Ant-Man and the Wasp." But unfortunately, during a mission, the wasp disappeared and Ant-Man also left S.H.I.E.L.D. ”

The other party was quite honest, but Li Nan didn't want to join S.H.I.E.L.D., which had been infiltrated by Hydra, so in order to avoid embarrassment for the other party, he said perfunctorily: "Give me some time to think about it." ”

Under the pretext of entertaining other guests, Li Nan took the opportunity to get rid of Director Fury and walked over to chat with them.

Just as the guests were chatting with each other, a middle-aged man in a crisp black suit and black-rimmed wide-rimmed glasses stepped into the center of the arena and shouted, "Everyone, please be quiet!" ”

The noisy chatter gradually stopped, and the middle-aged man raised the tightly sealed envelope in his hand and said: "I am Mr. Howard's personal lawyer, and the document I am holding in my hand is Mr. Howard's will. Stark and Lenan came to me. ”

Howard's will mentions himself, Li Nan is not very surprised, he estimates that nine times out of ten he will let himself take care of little Tony, who has never been in the world.

Li Nan and Tony came to the lawyer, who opened the envelope in front of everyone and took out the will written by Howard himself.

The lawyer unfolded the will and read it aloud: "Dear old friends, and my only son, Tony, when you see this will, then I must be gone. Li Nan, you guy must be here, I'm sorry I can't continue to accompany you to pick up girls, and I want you to do a little favor. ”

"I didn't have much to accomplish in my life, except for inventing a whole bunch of weapons to kill people, and I only built a small Stark group. I don't know how old Tony is now, or if his frivolous nature has changed, so I'm giving you 50% of the Stark Group's shares, and when you think Tony is qualified, give him those shares. Please, dear old friend! ”

When the lawyer finished reading this will, the guests present all looked at Li Nan with surprised eyes, and they felt that this matter was a little incredible.

The Stark Group is a completely different group of other large companies that are fully controlled by Howard.

After Howard, the playboy got married, he gave his wife Maria a 30 percent stake. After Tony was born, he gave his son another 10 percent stake.

There was also a twenty percent stake, which Howard gave to the company's executives, as well as some military bigwigs.

In terms of equity, Li Nan, who received 50% of the shares donated by Howard, naturally became the chairman of Stark Industries.

Although Howard said in his will that Li Nan would return the equity to his son at the right time, no one in the audience, except for a few people, thought that Li Nan would give up the wealth worth hundreds of billions in his hands.

"Can I refuse to accept these shares?" Li Nan did not happily accept Howard's gift, but asked a question that surprised the others.

"I'm sorry." The lawyer shook his head and said, "If you give up accepting these shares, then the shares will be discounted and donated to charity." ”

"This bastard!" After Li Nan scolded Howard a few words in his heart, he sighed deeply, he didn't expect that even if this guy died, he would leave himself in such a big trouble.
