Mr. Rohn, there's a charity gala at the Firemen's Home tonight, and Osborn Industries is a sponsor. Will you be attending?"
Tina quickly stepped forward and asked as Rohn emerged from the finance office.
Rohn rarely visited the Osborn Industries building, and Tina usually communicated with him via text messages. Since Rohn had finally made an appearance today, Tina didn't want to let him leave.
"A charity gala at the Firemen's Home?" Rohn raised an eyebrow. He knew about this charity gala; it was organized by the New York Firefighters Association, and major companies in New York were invited. As a large tech company, Osborn Industries would naturally be among them.
Rohn recalled that Tony Stark would also attend this gala, where he would learn that his Stark Industries was controlled by Obadiah and was still selling weapons.
Following this, Tony would unleash his anger on the terrorist organization that bought the weapons, undertaking Iron Man's first official mission to eliminate the organization… But what did this have to do with Rohn? He had no desire to attend some high-society gala. His visit to Osborn Industries today was for another reason entirely.
At this point, Rohn's interest in confronting S.H.I.E.L.D. had significantly waned. S.H.I.E.L.D. knew how powerful Rohn was and wouldn't dare to do anything to him. Having Black Widow monitor Rohn was also very ordinary; they wouldn't resort to extreme measures against him.
It's important to know that, besides making himself powerful, Rohn actually had no ambitions. He just wanted to make himself a little happier. As for ruling the Earth, leading humanity into the cosmos, or fighting aliens, Rohn had no interest in any of these things.
Or, at least, the current Rohn wasn't interested in them yet.
So Rohn thought of another way he could stir things up: he would establish a global news media company, become its boss, and publish his own news to the entire world!
As a transmigrator, Rohn knew a great deal. Coupled with his incredibly powerful memory, he could recall many intricate details of anything he had seen. With some real-world investigation and understanding, he was sure to stir up a storm.
What is the most important factor in a modern developed society? The transmission of information!
Knowing everything happening in the world without leaving home; a shooting in Europe one second can be communicated to the Americas the next. This is modern society!
With a news media company that could control the flow of global information, Rohn would only need a single news report to easily spread whatever he wanted to stir up!
At that time, issues like the mutants' belonging, the passions between superheroes and supervillains, alien invasions, and the arrival of Thanos would all be spread throughout the world by Rohn in a unique way.
That's why Rohn was preparing to open a news agency, specifically to publish matters related to superpowered individuals and changes on Earth.
The newspaper was named the 'Marvel Daily,' inspired by the Marvel Comics Rohn had read, a small prank of his own.
Rohn had been busy with this matter for the past few days. He had already tasked Norman Osborn with purchasing the news agency building, applying for the news agency's license, and other related tasks, which were mostly completed by today.
"Come on, Tina, pack up your things and come with me to the new company building. Your future office will be there; you won't need to come to Osborn Industries anymore!" Rohn said with a smile.
Tina was surprised to hear this: "Uh, Mr. Rohn, is the Marvel Daily building already finished today?"
Rohn nodded, "Yes, it's done. You'll be the assistant to the president of the Marvel Daily from now on. Work hard, and I'll give you a raise."
"Oh…" Tina responded, then mumbled, "He said he'd give me a raise last time, but he didn't. Liar."
Rohn pretended to have only vaguely heard her and made a threatening gesture: "What did you say? Want to say it again?"
Upon hearing this, Tina quickly waved her hands, her expression pleading: "No, I wouldn't dare again, Mr. Rohn, please don't fire me, I have elderly parents and young children…"
Rohn shot Tina a sideways glance and interrupted her: "Alright, alright, stop talking. I won't fire you."
"Oh, and don't call me 'Mister' anymore. Just call me 'Boss.' I prefer that title."
"Okay, Boss." Knowing she wouldn't be fired, Tina cheered up and immediately blurted out "Boss."
Next, Rohn took Tina to the Marvel Daily building to see what kind of building Norman Osborn had bought for him.
Osborn Industries was no longer the struggling company it once was, facing crisis without the Department of Defense contracts.
Although the regeneration potion hadn't been officially released yet, orders were already pouring in, completely overwhelming them. Money flowed into Osborn Industries' accounts like water, making the purchase of an entire building a very easy feat for the current Osborn Industries.
The Marvel Daily building was a newly constructed building from six months ago, with a rather ordinary appearance, about thirty stories high. It wasn't considered a skyscraper in New York, but since its location wasn't in Manhattan, the central district of New York, but rather in the somewhat more remote Queens, it still looked quite good due to its standalone nature.
The building's functions were very comprehensive, including a production department for printing newspapers, an online news department for publishing news on the internet, an editorial department, an art department, etc., making it completely self-sufficient.
However, besides some employees in departments like logistics and production, there weren't yet any employees in crucial departments such as news publishing or reporting. This was because the Marvel Daily would be reporting on significant matters in the future, so Rohn would operate it carefully, and the selection of personnel would be very strict; he couldn't just hire anyone.
Moreover, some members of the Guardians Alliance also needed a place to settle down, for example, Peter Parker, who would be very suitable to be a reporter!
After a while, Rohn's phone rang. The caller was Pepper Potts.
Rohn frowned, hesitated for a moment, but still answered the call.
"Hello, Miss Pepper, is there something you need?"
"I'm not Pepper." There was a moment of silence on the phone, then a slightly hoarse voice came through.
"Tony Stark?" As soon as Rohn heard the voice, he knew who was on the other end of the line.
Tony Stark, the head of Stark Industries, the very person Rohn was currently trying to stir up trouble with.
Inside an Audi R8 sports car, Tony Stark took a deep breath, finally letting go of his stubbornness.
"Yes, I'm Tony Stark. I agree to the condition you proposed last time, one million dollars, and I'm calling to invite you. Are you free to meet me now?"
