Reed Richards has had a very uncomfortable life in recent days.
Even in the scientific world, Reed Richards, who is known as the "most powerful brain" and "genius scientist", has multiple PhD titles and multiple invention patents, does not live like his predecessor Tony Stark. Very rich and comfortable life.
Although it owns a building named "Baxter" at the intersection of Madison Avenue and Forty-Second Avenue. However, he has nothing to do with the terms "rich man" and "rich man".
Like other scientists, Reed Richards loves science very much and can't wait to devote all his time, energy, and money to scientific research.
However, what he didn't expect was that his financial talent was not as handy as he was in scientific research.
Various scientific research experiments, like bottomless pits, swallowed all his savings and income.
When research funding far exceeded income, his balance sheet gradually turned into a red deficit.
In order to raise research funds everywhere, he not only sold many of his invention patents to other companies, but also rented out the ground floor of the building to obtain rent.
He even owed the fourth-phase mortgage of Baxter Mansion!
Compared to Tony Stark's business ability, Reed Richards is more like a nerd who doesn't care about the world and devotes himself to research.
Do you need money for research equipment?
Don't you want money for experiment materials?
Without money, all scientific research experiments are useless!
Especially recently, Reed Richards has also developed a keen interest in the funding pit of "cosmic rays".
This makes him unable to make ends meet, and life is even more difficult.
This is why he appeared in Manhattan, in front of the Nirvana Group headquarters…
Looking up at this magnificent mansion in front of him, Reed Richards, dressed in a black suit, straightened his tie a little, and then Roar took a deep breath, slightly nervous.
"Roar…"
Looking at his friend's appearance, Ben Grim on the side couldn't help but smile, put his hand on the other's shoulder, and encouraged:
"Reed, don't be so nervous, relax. I believe you, you can definitely convince them."
Hearing this, Reed Richards couldn't help but a bitter smile on his face, and said:
"How could I not be nervous…"
"You know, this is our last chance. If we fail again, I might really declare bankruptcy…"
At this time, Ben Grimm remembered that his friend had been given the final notice by the bank last week.
"Uh… at least compared to Stark and Osborn, Nirvana Group also has our acquaintances, right?"
After speaking, Ben Grimm winked at Reed, meaning to be pointed.
Hearing this, Reed suddenly remembered his girlfriend's smiling face, and couldn't help but feel certain in his heart.
"maybe…"
While talking, the two stepped into the Nirvana Building.
Located in the heart of Manhattan, only a few blocks away from the landmark "Avenger Building" in New York, the Nirvana Building is the headquarters of the entire Nirvana Group.
In the past two years, Nirvana Group has used its huge resources, contacts, and the good cooperative relationship between Stark and Osborn, and has quickly become a large-scale comprehensive group that has attracted much attention in the United States.
In terms of medicine and scientific research, rapid progress has been made, and it is likely to catch up with established giant crocodiles such as Stark and Osborn.
Compared with Stark and Osborn, Nirvana Group has received widespread recognition and support from the public.
The birth of the Nirvana Charity Fund has brought the reputation of the Nirvana Group to a higher level.
In addition to helping New Yorkers who lost their homes during the New York War, the scope of charity funds is also expanding, including helping homeless homeless people, funding welfare institutions, and funding research projects for young scientists.
It is precisely because of this that Reed Richards, who is in urgent need of research funding, will come to him.
He hopes to persuade the senior management of Nirvana Group to agree to fund his research project…
Passing through the spacious lobby, the two people who came to the front desk were preempted by the blond front desk lady before they spoke.
"Welcome to Nirvana Group, what can I do for you?"
"Hello, this is Reed Richards, and I have an appointment with Mr. Harris."
"please wait for a moment…"
After checking the appointment record on the computer, the young lady at the front desk quickly guided the two of them:
"Let you wait a long time, Mr. Harris is waiting for you in the office, the elevator is over there."
"okay, thank you."
Saying goodbye to the friendly lady at the front desk, the two of them walked slowly in the direction of the elevator entrance…
Accompanied by the sound of "ding!", on the elevator panel, the "37" floor where the vice president's office is located was displayed impressively.
Under the leadership of the secretary, Reed Richards and Ben Grim came to the vice president's office.
The secretary tapped the door a few times, and then, he heard a calm voice from inside the office:
"Come in!"
Reed looked at each other with the true face, as if making the last psychological preparation, then pushed the door in.
When they came in, they were surprised to find that in the huge office, there was not only Oliver Harris, the vice president of Nirvana Group.
On the sofa in the hospitality area, a strange young man and a blonde were sitting.
But Reed's gaze was staring straight at the blond girl with beautiful features and a bumpy figure.
Not because he fell in love with blondes at first sight, but because…
That is his girlfriend, Susan Stone!
At this moment, Oliver Harris, who was sitting on the sofa, got up and greeted the two of Reed.
"Oh, Dr. Reed, welcome!"
Although he didn't quite understand the current situation, Reed quickly recovered from the reminder of his friends on the side and reached out and shook Oliver Harris.
"It's an honor to meet you, Mr. Harris."
"Who is this?"
"Oh, this is my friend and colleague, Ben Grimm."
"Nice to meet you…"
After a few words of greeting, Reed's gaze involuntarily moved to the sofa, and the other two "uninvited guests"
Upon seeing this, Oliver Harris smiled slightly and stretched out his hand to introduce:
"Oh, I think you all know this beautiful lady…"
Before the words were over, the blonde took a step forward and showed a bright smile to the two of them:
"Hello, my name is Susan Stone and I am the deputy director of the research department."
Exchanged glances with his girlfriend, Reed's gaze again fell on the very young brown-haired man who was still sitting on the sofa.
"Hello, Dr. Reed, nice to meet you."
While talking, the brown-haired man got up from the sofa and came to Reid.
"Excuse me, are you?"
"Oh, I haven't introduced myself yet…"
The brown-haired man smiled freely and then said:
"My name is Leon Coulson!"
