When the bell rang for the New Year, the past year had been thrown into the trash can along with the obsolete calendar.
At the beginning of the New Year, everyone was looking forward to a new life, and people all over the world had the same wish at this moment.
They all hoped that the future would get better and better.
The human world would get more and more exciting in the New Year. And human civilization might be about to take a new step.
Because two great inventions of the century were announced on the first day of the New Year.
One was the civilian application of the Ark Energy Module that Tony Stark had been brewing for a long time.
After countless experiments, especially the trial and summary of Li Jie's team.
After Spider-man put forward some appropriate suggestions, Nightcrawler submitted them to Iron Man.
Tony improved the civilian version of the energy module again on the original basis.
Finally, on the first day of the New Year, Tony held a grand press conference at nine o 'clock in the morning.
"The civilian application of the Arc Reactor will be a day that will change human history. We will eventually change our destructive mining of the earth." Tony's press conference speech was very ambitious.
Li Jie also got a ticket for this demonstration, and he also asked for a ticket for Peter and Gwen.
Because people with insight understood that after today, the history of human energy would be divided into two parts because of Tony's feat.
The name of Stark Industries would be written in the history of all mankind.
"We will say goodbye to pollution, and the earth will be better and safer." Tony was enthusiastic on the podium.
"An Ark Energy Block of ten cubic meters can support the energy needs of a huge company like the Stark Industries building for a year."
"And it's efficient and pollution-free. We don't have to worry about the hole in the ozone layer anymore."
"We also don't have to worry that our future descendants will go back to the Stone Age because of a lack of energy."
"And the Arc Reactor will solve all these problems, and the lightweight Arc Reactor can also be used in a variety of civil machinery." Tony smiled a little.
"Welcome to the future in advance. I will introduce to you Stark Industries' new product, the levitating car."
Li Jie, Peter, and Gwen watched Tony press the switch on the stage.
A lift on the stage slowly lifted a streamlined sports car from under the stage.
The golden-red color was in line with Tony's consistent aesthetic.
In addition to its beautiful shape, the most special thing about this car was that it had no wheels.
With four magnetic nozzles as the energy output, it maintained an appropriate repulsive force against the earth's magnetic field as the power to levitate.
In fact, this concept of a car had been proposed a long time ago, but what no one could solve was how to provide a lasting and stable energy for the magnetic reflector.
Now the biggest problem had been overcome, and it could be imagined that this was just the beginning.
Humans had countless wonderful ideas in the field of science and technology, but they were all stuck in the application of energy.
Traditional fossil fuels were not burned enough, and there was no real breakthrough.
Nuclear fusion was a terrible energy source, and controllable nuclear fusion had always been theoretical; there had never been a real breakthrough.
Safety was a big issue, but at this moment, Tony's invention was going to change the development of human technology.
The era of human technology was coming.
"I heard that you helped Tony and Harry." Gwen asked Li Jie in a low voice while watching the speech on the stage.
"Yes, I think they can work together, like this." Li Jie also replied in a low voice because there were reporters not far away.
He didn't want to make big news.
"So is this the key? Didn't Jason do this to help Harry? "Peter had never been sensitive to business, so he had some doubts.
Gwen was born in a wealthy family, and her father was the head of the police in New York City. She had seen a lot of political and business celebrities since she was a child. She was a little sensitive to business things, so she helped Peter explain.
"Business is not so simple, Peter. You know, Stark's new energy has touched a lot of people's cake." Gwen explained to Peter in a low voice.
Li Jie nodded and said. "Yes, especially the traditional petrochemical energy and the new energy companies that compete with them."
"It will even involve the industrial layout of the entire world. If Tony wants to promote new energy on his own, it will take a lot of time and effort. And he will have to give up a lot of profit. "
Li Jie's explanation made Peter understand a little. "So that's why the Osborne Group and Stark Industries competed?"
"Yes, but Jason quietly arranged for Tony and Harry to meet, and the two mega-companies reached a tacit understanding," Gwen continued to help explain.
"Harry gave up all the energy sales channels, and didn't hold Stark back.
"Instead, he secretly helped Stark Industries deal with the traditional energy companies. Although the two giants didn't work together openly, no one dared to stand in their way."
After Gwen's explanation, Peter finally understood how far-reaching the impact of the dinner that Li Jie had arranged that day had been.
In some ways, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that this meal had changed the course of human technology.
In Li Jie's memory, he remembered that Stark Industries' new energy had indeed helped Tony recover the stock price that had fallen because of the closure of the weapons division.
But it hadn't caused a stir around the world. A big reason was probably because there were too many shackles in all aspects.
Capital was a profit-seeking animal.
According to a saying in his previous life, cutting off someone's path to wealth was like killing their parents.
Tony's new energy promotion must have been squeezed a lot in the original world line, and he even had to give up a lot of benefits for the sake of sales channels.
But because of Li Jie's small hand, the entire world line underwent an earth-shattering change.
Peibo and Harry had reached an agreement in their secret meeting, and the Osborne Group gave up all the energy sales channels in exchange for Stark Industries' military and some machinery sales channels.
It was precisely because of this secret agreement that Tony had the confidence to hold a global press conference today.
With the two supergiants joining forces, they could completely ignore the traditional petrochemical companies.
If they didn't transform, they could let them do whatever they wanted.
And that wasn't the only explosive news on the first day of the new year. At two in the afternoon …
Harry Osborne, the new CEO of the Osborne Group and the son of Norman Osborne, the Osborne Group's new CEO who had always kept a low profile, also held a global press conference.
The topic of the conference was a serum that could change the course of human development.
"I have a dream. I hope that people in this world will no longer be tormented by illness." This was Harry's press conference.
This time, it wasn't just Li Jie and the other two who attended; Harry's girlfriend, Mary, was also there.
The four of them sat in the front row, where they had the best view.
In this place, they could still see the gleam in Harry's eyes.
"Human beings are always tormented by illness, especially because of irresistible reasons that make people disabled. This is the most painful." Harry's speech wasn't as excited as Tony's, but it was full of emotion.
"The Osborne Group has always been committed to improving the human medical environment. And today, I am honored to announce to you. "Harry's tone raised.
At the scene, except for a small number of people such as Li Jie who knew what was going to be released today.
Most reporters didn't know what the Osborne Group was going to release today.
Because of the baptism of Tony's new energy in the morning, many people felt that the young head of the Osborne Group would most likely fail today's press conference.
After all, what news could be greater and more eye-catching than an invention that changed the course of human science and technology?
But today was destined to make a group of people's jaws drop.
For Harry had announced the unthinkable in a high-pitched voice.
"Everyone, a new era of human beings has arrived. Here, I solemnly introduce to you the cross-era product. 'Medical Plan for Limb Regeneration'. "
As soon as Harry's voice fell, the audience was quiet, and everyone didn't quite understand what it meant.
However, the big screen behind Harry silently played the film of the limb regeneration plan.
People who originally had two disabled fingers actually began to grow new fingers.
Children who originally had congenital atrial weakness began to have strong heartbeats.
Along with the picture, the entire venue began to whisper.
Like the sound of a distant tsunami, the atmosphere of the entire venue was colored in an instant.
What did limb regeneration represent? Humans would say goodbye to disability in the future!
Even many congenital diseases and organ damage could be cured.
Although it was mentioned that this treatment was not harmless and would reduce people's lifespan to a certain extent.
But who cared about this kind of thing?
In order to live a few more days with cancer, many people had received radiation and chemotherapy.
At the cost of a few years of one's lifespan, one could regrow a broken leg. This was a temptation that no one could resist.
At the same time, Harry also showed the new bone auxiliary system. This was prepared for people with weak vitality.
At this moment, all the reporters went crazy. Today's two press conferences would go down in the annals of human history.
In particular, Harry's one was enough to write his name into human history textbooks.
As his friends, Li Jie and Peter were sincerely happy for Harry.
In particular, Li Jie's matchmaking for Harry and Tony that day hadn't been in vain.
The company under Stark Industries that made smart machinery equipment was the same company that made the bone auxiliary system in Harry's hands.
This was also a deal that Li Jie had made at the dinner party that day.
Harry had obtained Stark Industries' arms sales channel and many production licenses, which was enough to shut up all the old guys on the board of directors.
This press conference would accumulate a lot of popularity for him, especially after Li Jie's proposal to have Harry announce the free treatment for a thousand poor disabled people.
This made Harry even more famous. It could be said that the news that night was very exciting.
It was as if the whole world had erupted in a tsunami that swept across the world.
The whole world was discussing these two press conferences, and everyone was certain that humanity would turn a new page.
When Li Jie turned off his computer and stopped browsing the news, his blood was boiling.
This was a great era, and he was a person who had participated in the major events of this great era.
Perhaps when people in the future looked back at the past one day, they would be surprised to find the beginning of this great era.
It started with a dinner party at a restaurant in Manhattan's Chinatown.
Li Jie was very honored to be able to participate in the process of promoting this great era.
He suddenly remembered that the manga company under him was about to publish the first issue of the manga.
