Chapter 15 Cooperation and Symbiosis

"When you see Norman Osborn, don't worry about his attitude."

Jameson listened, nodded undeniably, and ordered: "You know, it is Osborn who needs the Daily Bugle, not the Daily Bugle who needs Osborn."

"What's the meaning?"

Anton looked puzzled.

There was a faint realization in my heart that the person of Norman Osborne might not be him, but the old man.

However, the old man handed over the meeting to him.

"go in."

Reach the top floor and come to the door of Norman Osborn's office.

Jameson stood still and said with a smile: "Come in, and see yourself next. Remember, you represent the Jameson family now."

"Understood."

Anton's face was complicated, then he straightened his collar and knocked on the door.

"Come in."

In the office, the voice of Norman Osborn came.

Anton pushed the door and entered.

Seeing this, Norman showed a hint of surprise.

"If I remember correctly, your name is Anton, right?"

He smiled and said, "It really surprised me, Jonah, the old-fashioned man, actually gave you the newspaper. I thought he would hold on to power until the day he died...I think , he must be very satisfied with you."

"Thank you for the compliment."

Anton nodded slightly, looked at Norman Osborn, omitted the greeting, and went straight to the point: "The old man didn't tell me what to say. But I think the purpose of our meeting today should be for the Life Foundation. Osborne Mr. Ben, am I right?"

"good."

Norman invited him to a seat and said, "The Life Foundation is our common opponent. As far as I know, you are behind the recent scandal from the Life Foundation... I must admit, you have done a very good job. Na's demeanor."

"Old man?"

Anton's eyes flashed: "It seems that he has brought down more big companies than me back then."

"Of course he has my admiration and I am very sorry for his retirement."

Norman Osborn speaks with sincerity.

Anton doesn't know if it's true or false, but as a young man, he prefers to get straight to the point rather than waste time on politeness.

He took the initiative to ask, "I don't know what Mr. Osborn is looking for today, what is he going to do?"

"Cooperation."

Norman put it bluntly: "I found the Daily Clarion, of course, for cooperation."

"It appears that the Osborn Company is interested in the Life Foundation."

Anton showed such an expression as expected.

Norman is meaningful: "After all, our cooperation is based on the foundation that the Life Foundation must collapse."

"Although Osborne is an arms company, it also ranks among the top in the world in terms of biological genes. In other words, we are still a well-known pharmaceutical company." Norman said, "The Life Foundation is one of our competitors in this field. One, the pharmaceutical patents in their hands are the most suitable supplements that Osborn Company can only dream of.”

"It is indeed a major benefit to destroy the Life Foundation and take over by the Osborn Company." Anton asked, "But what benefits can this gain for the Daily Bugle?"

"Shares."

Norman Osborne made Osborne bigger and stronger. He knew that "wanting a horse to run, but also wanting a horse not to graze" is the most common bad habit in enterprise development, so he has always been generous.

"As long as the Daily Clarion cooperates with Osborn to successfully acquire the Life Foundation, I can transfer the five percent stake in the Life Foundation to the Jameson family after the fact."

When it comes to business, Norman showed a gesture of abandoning me and said lightly: "I think this is enough to express my sincerity."

"Then, happy cooperation."

Anton is quite crisp.

Five percent of the shares of the Life Foundation sounds like a pitiful figure, but when you think of the size of the Life Foundation, you know that this represents amazing wealth.

Norman Osborn is indeed generous.

As for why the Osborn Company cooperated with the Daily Bugle, it was mostly in this game that they took a fancy to the Daily Bugle's ability to guide public opinion.

Without Daily Clarion, the Osborn Company wanted to acquire the Life Foundation, and now they can't even get the hang of it.

This is by no means something that can be achieved with money.

The existence of the Daily Bugle is equivalent to making up for the vacancy in the public opinion of Osborn Company.

As an integral part of the plan, this is why Norman Osborn is willing to bleed.

Walking out of Norman Osborn's office, Anton thought that Norman had just said to himself that what he did was the style of Jonah Jameson back then, and his face suddenly became weird.

He suddenly began to wonder, how did the wealth of the Jameson family come from?

Could it be that the old man relied on the trumpet daily to smash wool, ripped off, and beat the autumn wind, and finally got this tens of billions of worth?

...

San Francisco.

Inside the experimental base, the Symbiote Research Center.

"Are you really going to let me go?"

Eddie looked incredulous, staring at the woman named Dora Sikes in front of him. He never thought that such a good thing would happen to him.

"I didn't let you go, it was you who broke free and knocked me out and escaped."

Dora corrects Eddie.

"understand!"

Eddie couldn't wait to nod: "Don't worry, I will never expose you."

"Before you go out, there's something to tell you."

Dora looked solemn.

This made Eddie realize something, his face changed, and he said solemnly: "You said."

Dora suddenly asked: "Do you know that the Life Foundation is obviously a pharmaceutical company, why did it suddenly build a rocket and start a space program?"

"Drake wants to take the lead in the future because of Earth's overpopulation and climate change." Eddie thought for a moment, recalling Drake's rhetoric in those interviews, "Is it fake?"

"No, it's all true."

Dora said: "Drake sent a spaceship to search for a habitable planet of life, but unexpectedly found a comet on the way back."

"comet?"

Eddie wondered: "What does this have to do with Comet?"

"The spacecraft's onboard computer shows that there are thousands of signs of life on the comet!" Dora said solemnly, "They brought back some samples."

Eddie's eyes widened. "Wait, you mean aliens?"

"you can say it this way."

Dora nodded: "However, we call it symbionts. They cannot survive independently in our environment and must find parasites, just like parasites in our ordinary sense."

"Then the experiments I've seen these days..."

Eddie gasped.

"Yes, Drake believes that the combination of humans and symbiotes will be the key to our survival in space in the future."

Dora said, showing an indescribable expression, and said slowly: "Moreover, these experiments are not recorded in the test report, he is purely forcibly matching, if he fails, he will face the death of the host, which is what you call the mutilation of life. "

"He's just a lunatic!"

Eddie was stunned.

He originally thought that Drake was privately conducting illegal human experiments in order to study new drugs.

It can also be said that it is for profit.

Unexpectedly, Drake is actually to combine humans and aliens!

This seems to be incompatible with the interests of the eight poles!

Unacceptable.
