My Superhero Can’t Be This Jerk

New York, East Side of Manhattan.

It was seven o'clock in the evening at the Monkadero Hotel, which was the beginning of the nightlife.

The brightly lit Moncadielo Hotel is said to be one of the most expensive five-star hotels in New York, and it is mainly used to entertain dignitaries and important guests from various countries.

Before stepping into the gate, Wei Chen saw tall arches, ornate fountains and walkways decorated with gas lamps.

Leslie, who was holding Wei Chen's arm, looked at the gorgeous decorations around him curiously, like a curious baby.

She was wearing a black tube top evening dress, with a youthful and extraordinary temperament, and attracted the attention of many guests as soon as she entered the door.

Being watched by so many people, Leslie was a little nervous, and the arm holding Wei Chen became extremely stiff.

"Relax, you just treat them as radishes in the field, no matter how much radishes stare at you, they are just radishes."

Wei Chen comforted her softly.

Leslie listened to Wei Chen's funny words, the corners of his mouth turned up, and his tense nerves gradually relaxed.

At the front door of the hotel, luxury cars are like clouds, guests are like rain, and the hustle and bustle is overwhelming.

The invited guests are all dignitaries and dignitaries in New York, all of them are well-dressed and elegant.

Wei Chen and Leslie handed over invitations, and led by the waiters, boarded the banquet hall on the 29th floor.

The banquet hall was crowded with people, women in expensive evening gowns, men in suits, and waiters in white shirts and black vests, with different identities, gathered together in one place.

"Hi John, thank you for your support!"

"Bill, are the kids okay?"

President Madeleine has a faint smile on her face, and her posture is graceful and elegant. Everywhere she goes, she will chat with familiar people.

Or elicit a roar of laughter, or make a measured joke, or mention family and children. The strong woman in control of Water Company has completely grasped the rhythm and become the dominant party.

"Hey!"

Seeing Wei Chen and Leslie enter the banquet hall, Madeleine apologized to the person talking and walked towards them.

"Hello, Mr. Xavier, let me introduce myself, Madeleine Stillwell."

"Eric Xavier, this is Leslie Troy."

Wei Chen introduced their identities.

"Mr. Xavier, you look younger than you think."

"Thank you, Ms. Stillwell is the most eye-catching one even if she stands with the beautiful girls in the field."

Wei Chen just opened his mouth to talk nonsense.

Madeleine showed an elegant smile, "When people are young, no one knows how young they are. But I found that I often care about the issue of youth recently, which means that I may be getting old."

Without waiting for Wei Chen to respond, she took a glass of wine from the passing waiter's tray and raised her glass, "Mr. Xavier, can we talk alone?"

"certainly."

Wei Chen made an apologetic gesture to Leslie.

After Leslie left, the two walked to the bar.

"What do you want to drink?"

Madeleine raised her wine glass and asked Wei Chen.

"Whiskey, on the rocks."

"We have The Macallan 25 Year Old."

Wei Chen clasped his hands lightly, put them on his chest, and smiled slightly, "Thank you, I like pure whiskey, and whiskey is just whiskey, adding too many extras may make my taste uncomfortable."

Madeleine smiled awkwardly. She felt that the man with a special temperament in front of her was not as gentle as he appeared on the surface.

After organizing the language, Madeleine asked, "What does Mr. Xavier think of Walter Company?" "

Thanking the bartender who handed the whiskey, Wei Chen took a sip, "People say that the flavors of whiskey are roughly divided into twelve categories, and we can only smell a few of them.

Some people can perceive more than a dozen kinds, and very few people can explore dozens of kinds. What a miraculous and wonderful thing. "

Wei Chen didn't answer her directly, but instead talked about the taste of whiskey.

Gently shaking the Kane glass in his hand, he continued: "My understanding of Water Company is like a person with a dull taste understands whiskey. Superheroes, brokerage companies, stars, brabla, etc. ..."

Madeleine gave a friendly but polite smile.

"Mr. Xavier." Facing Wei Chen who didn't follow the routine, Madeleine went straight to the point, "We want to invite Miss Leslie Troy to join the Super Seven."

"Sounds good, but you should ask her opinion. Actually, she's an adult."

Wei Chen shrugged his shoulders, as if he wasn't surprised by this incident at all.

"Of course, the first thing we do when recruiting superheroes into the Seven is to seek their own opinions. But we hope that Mr. Xavier can support us. After all, this is a very important thing for Miss Leslie, and she I would also like to get the opinions of family and friends.”

What Madeleine meant was that Wei Chen would be able to convince Leslie to join the Seven, or at least not object to it.

"I will respect Leslie's own opinion."

Wei Chen uttered an ambiguous sentence.

For the current Leslie, joining the Seven is not necessarily a bad thing.

She wants to be a superhero, and Walter is the best platform. Although there is a ticking time bomb of the people from the motherland, Wei Chen is confident that with the protection of Xingguang and Maeve, the people from the motherland will not be able to make waves for a while.

What's more, there is a president pressing on it.

Most important, of course, is Leslie's opinion.

Madeleine seemed very satisfied with Wei Chen's reply. She raised her glass and made a gesture of clinking glasses, "We all respect Miss Troy's opinion."

She is indeed very satisfied, as long as Wei Chen does not interfere, she is confident that she can persuade Leslie.

In a good mood, he began to chat with Wei Chen about other things, "Mr. Xavier is in the investment business, are you interested in joining the superhero industry? Now is the golden age of the superhero industry, and the net profit of Water Company has increased this year. 14 percent..."

Wei Chen pretended to be very interested, "It is indeed very promising, Ms. Stillwell, you have to understand that investment companies are particularly sensitive to big data. According to our big data model, Batman has become the most Hot superheroes, I think we can collaborate on that."

"Eh..." Madeleine was a little confused. She originally hoped to persuade Wei Chen to invest in Water Company, but she didn't expect the other party to be interested in Batman.

Wei Chen continued to talk eloquently, "Batman has never said his name. The so-called 'Batman' is just a title given to him by the people. It can be 'Batman' or 'Knightman'. No one stipulates that we The name 'Batman' cannot be used. And we can take advantage of this business opportunity to launch Batman peripherals, novels, comics, and models. "

Madeleine felt that the other party really deserved to be a bold capitalist, so she wasn't afraid that Batman would break into his house and hang him?

"So, how will Mr. Xavier cooperate?"

"It's very simple. I have registered the trademark of Batman and I am going to launch his series of comics and novels. Of course, these are fictional, but we can claim that this is his own experience. Walter's channels and super Hero operation experience, content creation provided by Chenxi Company, win-win cooperation, how about it?"

Although Madeleine was shocked by the other party's boldness, she felt that this seemed to be a good idea.
