Marvel's Umbrella

After Pepper said to raise his hand to vote, Tony immediately raised his hand.

But no one below took action, just looked at Tony and Pepper coldly.

In this regard, Pepper was not disappointed, but continued to say: "Now the votes in favor account for 39% of the shares. According to the articles of association of the shareholders' meeting, those who oppose can raise their hands now.

Those who abstain will not be counted as shares..."

Just when she was about to persuade everyone to abstain, she saw that all the small shareholders raised their hands, and then Obadiah and Luna.

This immediately made Pepper and Tony's faces ugly.

Although these small shareholders do not have much shares, only 1% or 2%, but there are too many people.

Add Obadiah and Luna's shares, it has reached 41%, two points more than them.

From this, we can also see how popular Obadiah is.

You know, when he didn't have the 5% stake in Umbrella, he could unite everyone to remove Tony from the position of chairman, not to mention now.

At this time, Pepper stopped talking.

After all, she was still young and had only been in Stark Enterprises for three years. This was also the first time she saw Obadiah's prestige, and she was a little caught off guard.

After a while, seeing that the scene had fallen silent, Obadiah said confidently: "Forty-one percent to thirty-nine percent, it seems that this shareholders' meeting will disappoint you.

Okay, now for the second vote, Tony will leave the shareholders' meeting and no longer participate in Stark Enterprises."

Hearing this, Tony immediately stood up and shook his head.

"No, you can't do this, this is Stark Enterprises, I am Stark!"

What made him desperate was that most of the small shareholders raised their hands.

However, some of the company's veterans still missed Tony's father, so they didn't raise their hands.

For a while, the vote on the scene reached 38%, but it was not enough to pass the resolution just now.

So Obadiah looked at several company elders and said viciously: "Do you still want this kid to continue to destroy Stark Enterprises?

If Howard sees the current Stark Enterprises, do you think he will be happy or sad?

The only way to save Stark Enterprises now is for me to take charge of Stark Enterprises, reopen the weapons research and development department, and accept military orders!"

Seeing that the elders seemed to be interested, he continued: "I promise that in one year, the market value of Stark Enterprises will return to 300 billion! Or even higher!"

Hearing this promise, several elders' eyes lit up immediately and they all wanted to raise their hands.

Although they watched Tony grow up and had a lot of feelings, feelings can't be eaten.

You know, the 1% equity in their hands was worth 3 billion in the past, but now it is only 1 billion.

What kind of feelings can be worth 2 billion?

Tony saw these elders raise their hands and immediately got anxious.

"Uncle Nunez, Uncle Hidalgo, you can't do this. Stark Enterprises can't do without me. Only I can lead the company to become stronger!"

The two people named are good friends of Howard. They are also very old. At this time, looking at Tony, they are firmly holding their hands.

"Tony, I know you are a good boy, but we also have to eat."

"Yes, Tony, the stock price has fallen so much recently, and my family can hardly make ends meet."

Without waiting for Tony to continue persuading, Obadiah said excitedly: "40% to 39%, Tony, you are out, please!"

Although there was still a shareholder elder who did not raise his hand in the end, it still did not affect the overall situation.

And Tony also cast his eyes on the last person.

If he can win the other party's 1% equity, it will be 40 to 40, and he still has a chance.

But before he could speak, the man turned his head.

The meaning is very clear, that is, for Howard's face, he will not participate in the hand-raising, but it is impossible for him to support Tony.

Just when Tony was feeling discouraged, Pepper suddenly stood up.

"No, there is another shareholder who did not participate in this shareholders' meeting."

"Who?"

"S.H.I.E.L.D."

Hearing the word S.H.I.E.L.D., Tony immediately remembered that S.H.I.E.L.D. also had a 5% stake.

If he could get S.H.I.E.L.D.'s help, he would still have a chance.

Pepper said, "I will apply to suspend the shareholders' meeting now and continue in half an hour!"

Now it was Obadiah's turn to look ugly.

If S.H.I.E.L.D. took action, it would indeed play a key role.

Wouldn't everything they did be in vain by then? You know, in order to get these small shareholders to support him, he made a lot of promises last night and gave up a lot of benefits.

Thinking of this, he looked at Luna, hoping that the other party could do something.

But Luna still had a confident smile on her face and just nodded at him.

"Miss Pepper's application is fine, but if the voting result does not change in half an hour, I'm sorry."

Pepper glanced at Luna, did not speak, just stood up and left with Tony.

After leaving the conference room, Pepper immediately took out her cell phone to contact Coulson.

"Hello, the user you dialed is powered off..."

On the other end of the phone, a power-off reminder sounded.

"Power off?"

Pepper felt uneasy, so she called again.

But no matter how she called, the number Coulson left for her was always turned off.

Tony watched Pepper keep calling and asked in confusion: "What's wrong?"

"The phone is turned off..."

"Why is it turned off at this time? Try again."

At this time, Luna walked out of the conference room and looked at the two people in front of her, and smiled.

"I heard that someone reported to the Security Council last night that SHIELD interfered in the affairs of ordinary people. If I'm not mistaken, it should still be under interrogation now."

The current SHIELD is not the SHIELD that will be fully fledged in the future and even evolve into the Serpent Shield.

So SHIELD still needs to be monitored and supervised by the Security Council.

The regulations set when SHIELD was established are to protect ordinary people from being threatened by extraordinary people and from being attacked by super-advanced technology.

At the same time, SHIELD is strictly prohibited from interfering in the affairs of ordinary people.

Last night's real-name report immediately made SHIELD subject to supervision and questioning from the Security Council.

Hearing this, Tony and Pepper turned pale.

But Pepper continued to make calls without giving up.

Half an hour later, Coulson's phone still could not be reached, so the board continued.

Another vote, just like before.

This also made Tony and Pepper lower their heads, like defeated roosters, completely losing the winning posture at noon.

Seeing this, Obadiah immediately asked the security guard to drag Tony out of the company.

Without Tony as a backer, Pepper was also fired from her position.

From then on, Stark Enterprises entered the era of Obadiah's control.
