The first genius of American manga
Chapter 108 Big News of the Century
The so-called Pegasus Project is the light speed engine development project that the United States engaged in in the movie Captain Marvel.
It was developed by Mar-Vell, a Kree scientist disguised as an Earthling, and its energy source is the Cosmic Cube.
In other words, Project Pegasus was a plan to develop the Rubik's Cube. With the technology of the United States at that time, a real space shuttle had been created, an aircraft that could fly directly out of the atmosphere and fly in low-Earth orbit.
Now that decades have passed, Nick Fury has restarted the Pegasus Project and naturally continues to develop the Cosmic Cube.
Of course, his development of the Cosmic Cube was not to develop aerospace technology, but to weaponize it, using the energy of the Cosmic Cube to create a more powerful super weapon with a wider range of destruction, exactly what the Red Skull did back then.
Originally, SHIELD had been developing this plan for a long time, but due to various restrictions, the investment was not large, so there was no progress. Nick Fury, who is now constantly stimulated, decided to ignore those restrictions and work on the New Pegasus Project.
Invest a lot of manpower and material resources, and we must achieve results!
On the other side, with Gideon and his daughter both committing suicide, their Hydra has come to an end.
The recovery of Chicago created a series of chain reactions.
First of all, the research on the original aliens was stopped, all data was sealed, and no one or institution was allowed to study it anymore.
At the same time, all SHIELD scientists engaged in research in this area were taken away for investigation to see if they had any connection with the Malick family.
In order not to expose himself, Pierce actually introduced a few scapegoats. As a result, SHIELD became even more passive.
Sure enough, the punishment was handed down soon. Under pressure from the United States, the World Security Council had to fire Director Nick Fury from his post and replaced him with Maria Hill.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that this kind of personnel transfer is simply changing the soup without changing the medicine. Hill is completely Nick Fury's puppet. It is estimated that Nick Fury still has the final say in all matters of S.H.I.E.L.D.
And this is exactly what happened. After Nick Fury was dismissed, he still stayed at Trident Headquarters and didn't even change his office. The only difference was that the sign in the director's office was replaced by the deputy director...
Of course, the United States is not that easy to fool. In addition to Nick Fury's dismissal, S.H.I.E.L.D. also paid a lot of costs.
For example, some core technologies, some important intelligence, etc... In short, after some PY transactions, the matter of SHIELD developing original aliens and triggering the Chicago War was reduced to a big deal and became a trivial matter.
In the entire process, the opinions of the American people were not listened to, and there was no vote. The so-called democracy is nothing on this matter.
There are punishments, but there are rewards. General Thaddeus Ross has successfully turned around. By liberating Chicago, he not only got rid of his merits, but also got promoted, and is even expected to be nominated as the new Secretary of State.
From here we can see how much pressure President Ellis has on the election.
Obviously Ross has made mistakes before, and the damage caused is no less than this time in the Chicago War, but because he has regained Chicago and his popularity is booming, in order to win votes, Ellis really dares to promote anyone.
Of course, the person who has benefited the most is undoubtedly Wang Khan.
The whole thing was promoted by Wang Khan from beginning to end, although the biggest reason for this was that Gideon Malik committed suicide and the director of SHIELD was infiltrated by Hydra for many years.
But there is no doubt that without Wang Khan's push, the whole thing would not have developed to this point.
Without Wang Khan, something like this might happen, but I'm afraid it would be delayed by a few years. According to the original work, it should happen after the collapse of SHIELD. But it was still SHIELD's fault at that time. From this point of view, the difference is actually the same.
Not big.
All in all, after Wang Khan's operation, Chicago was crippled, S.H.I.E.L.D. was heavily fined, and the US military suffered heavy losses, but his umbrella company received a super large order worth hundreds of billions.
To this end, Wang Khan cooperated with five downstream manufacturers and sent professional engineers to help them build production lines for Mars suits, making a huge contribution to the retirement of tanks, the most powerful weapon in land warfare.
In the Forbes rich list, Wang Khan also officially surpassed Tony Stark and became the new generation of the world's richest man!
Since the entire Umbrella Company belongs to Wang Khan alone, his total personal assets, that is, the total assets of Umbrella, are directly up to 320 billion U.S. dollars, more than double the second place, making him the undisputed richest man in the world!
This is still the case when the umbrella has not been listed. It is now generally believed that once the umbrella is listed, Wang Khan's personal assets will probably expand several times. By then, his assets alone will probably be able to match
Ranked close to the top ten.
In today's era where capital is king, money is king, especially in a capitalist country like the United States.
For a time, Wang Khan became the object of admiration by many Americans.
Especially since he went from a small experimental assistant to a billionaire boss in just four years.
Such a terrifying rate of making money will definitely kill everyone on the ranking list. Tony Stark is much inferior to Wang Khan.
After all, strictly speaking, Tony is a second-generation rich man who inherited his father's business from his father and has never experienced the arduous process of capital accumulation.
Although Tony himself is also outstanding in ability, when compared with Wang Khan, who has nothing and relies solely on self-made things, the judgment is clear.
Just when Wang Khan was in the limelight, Umbrella revealed another big news of the century.
"From now on, Umbrella Company will officially launch the cosmic elevator project. It is expected that it will take five years to build the world's first cosmic elevator and completely change the history of human aviation! To this end, Umbrella will spend 100 billion US dollars to invest in this
project."
Gwen, wearing a high-end women's suit, stood in the umbrella hall and announced the news that would go down in history in front of hundreds of reporters.
For a time, the media around the world were alarmed, and even aerospace technology giants from various countries, as well as well-known professors and experts in astronautics, expressed their voices in response to the news about the protective umbrella.
Most of these voices are skeptical, but a few express expectations.
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration, also known as NASA, sent its own experts to the Umbrella Company to participate in this project.
Eventually, even President Ellis weighed in on the topic.
"Five years? Can you shorten the time by one year? I want to ride on such an elevator during my term."
