Two years passed quickly, and it was 1997. Many major events happened in these two years.
First, the world’s first maglev train line was successfully opened. It was originally going to take five years to build this line, but under the leadership of the enthusiastic Skye Industrial employees, it was delivered and opened to traffic six months ahead of schedule, which is unprecedented in American history!
On the day of the opening, the former and current presidents were present at the same time, cutting the ribbon with Eric and witnessing this historic moment together.
Then, under the protection of American soldiers with real guns and live ammunition all the way, the two presidents and a group of White House dignitaries became the first passengers of the maglev train.
It took less than half an hour to return to Washington from New York, a total of 360 kilometers, and the speed almost caught up with Air Force One. The president couldn’t help but sigh that this was a legend in the transportation industry, and this route was therefore named “Legendary Road”.
Of course, the legend of Skye Industrial is far more than that.
Under the leadership of Ivan Vanko, the energy department of Skye Industries successfully cracked the manufacturing process of the Ark Reactor, which was ten years earlier than Tony Stark!
Originally, Ivan wanted to hold a press conference after building the reactor to humiliate Tony Stark in front of people all over the world, but Eric stopped him.
The Ark Reactor was developed by Anton Vanko and Howard Stark. There is also a prototype of the reactor made by Howard in Stark Industries, which has provided Stark Industries with free electricity for decades.
If Skye Industries announced this achievement now, it would not only cause a feud with Stark Industries, but also bring endless troubles to Skye Industries, such as patents, SHIELD, counterintelligence agencies…
Good things, just keep them for yourself, no need to show off everywhere!
Ivan was of course very unhappy, but Eric directly gave him a design drawing. After he looked at it, he turned around and left without saying a word and went into the laboratory again.
Ivan knew very well that the Ark reactor could make him a celebrity and avenge his father, but this design could make him a god!
With the Ark reactor, the single-soldier electromagnetic gun that the military had always urgently needed was finally developed.
The entire system weighs only 30 kilograms, is based on room-temperature superconducting materials, and is powered by the Ark reactor. It is not only powerful, but also does not have the phenomenon of barrel heating. If there is enough ammunition, one soldier can match the firepower of a platoon!
As for the Ark reactor, the military certainly recognized it, but they chose to turn a blind eye. The theft of technology exists everywhere, so there is no need to be too serious. If you really want to provoke, it is Stark Industries and Skye Industries that are making trouble, not them.
Of course, the things are good, but the price makes the military tremble. Just a dozen kilograms of “Lansheer No. 1” is a considerable amount, plus the more expensive Ark reactor, who can afford it!
In the end, facing the high price, the military gave up the idea of changing the uniforms of the entire army, and only equipped individual elite troops with electromagnetic guns.
It was also with the Ark reactor, and Eric personally took charge of the battle, and it took two years for the artificial intelligence “Danger” to be successfully built. Eric felt that the name “Danger” had a bad meaning, so he named it “Future”.
In the process of building “Future”, Eric did not avoid Skye too much. She showed a strong interest in it. Seeing that his daughter liked it, Eric deliberately guided and cultivated her, so that Skye’s knowledge in computers advanced by leaps and bounds.
In the same year, Nick Fury finally took up the responsibility of the SHIELD with the support of Alexander and succeeded the position of director.
The first order he issued almost angered his old superior to death.
He asked Coulson to send Eric a letter of appointment from SHIELD, inviting him to serve as a technical consultant for SHIELD.
Alexander had successfully retreated behind the scenes at this time, and could do nothing except secretly scolding Nick Fury for bringing the wolf into the house.
Under Alexander’s worried eyes, Eric gladly accepted the invitation and took the Legend Road train to the Trident headquarters that day.
“Fury, I haven’t seen you for two years. Why are you bald?” Eric, led by Coulson, went directly to the director’s office. Coincidentally, both directors were there. “Alexander! You look thinner.”
Nick Fury touched his newly shaved head and glanced back and forth between the two of them in confusion. “You two, do you know each other?”
“Of course, the Spear family has some connection with my ancestors. Oh, by the way, my ancestors once gave a dagger to the Spear family. I wonder if it’s still there.” Eric held Alexander’s hand tightly and smiled very brightly.
The corners of Alexander’s mouth twitched a few times, and he forced a smile, “Yes, of course it’s there. How can I lose the gift of my ancestors!”
“That’s good. The dagger is a bit old. I don’t know if the oath engraved on it has been erased by time?” Eric continued to play dumb, and the corners of his mouth gradually curled up.
“The teachings of our ancestors cannot be eroded by time!” Alexander looked at him deeply, indicating that he was still loyal to the Red Skull and would not forget the teachings of the organization because of time.
Nick Fury watched coldly, and intuitively felt that the relationship between the two must be complicated, but he did not say anything, just kept it in mind and investigated it separately later. From this point of view, he is already a qualified agent chief.
“This is really a historic moment, two people who have refused the Nobel Prize stand together!” Nick Fury smiled and clapped his hands and gave the two a thumbs up.
“No, I just completed my job, and it didn’t actually contribute much to world peace. The Nobel Peace Prize is too heavy for me. Eric is so awesome that he actually refused the Nobel Prize in Physics. Prize!” Alexander humbly belittles himself and exalts others.
Eric chuckled when he heard this. He did reject the Nobel Prize in Physics a year ago. At that time, it was the most critical moment for building artificial intelligence. There was no way to get away from people, and he was not short of fame. As for the bonus, ? hehe……
“No, normal temperature superconducting materials are actually based on the legacy of our ancestors. How can I dare to monopolize them? Alexander, you are the best.”
The two started the business promotion mode and chatted awkwardly with each other. Nick Fury was so embarrassed that he had to send Eric away on the pretext of job introduction, leaving Alexander alone in the office and furious.
The fully evolved Braised Egg is very interesting to Eric. A technical consultant position was given to Eric and he was given Level 6 authority of SHIELD. You know, Black Widow Natasha has just reached Level 6.
“Eric, what you are going to see next is SHIELD’s top secret, and it is one of the reasons why I invited you here!”
@Future, I couldn’t think of the name of artificial intelligence, so I used your name directly. I hope you don’t mind. Hehehe. Finally, I would like to add it to your daily collection and recommend it.
