Norman Osborn had determined that Ryan was someone who could be won over.
Therefore, Norman Osborn's attitude towards Ryan was exceptionally enthusiastic, spending over two hours specifically introducing many confidential research projects within the company to Ryan.
However, as the chairman of a group worth nearly a hundred billion U.S. dollars, Norman Osborn's time was very tight.
After giving some instructions to his blonde, curvaceous secretary, Norman Osborn quickly got back to work.
Meanwhile, Ryan, led by the attractive secretary, began his tour of the Osborn Group.
Chapter 14: Visiting the Osborn Group
A super biological group with a market value of tens of billions was still quite rare in the early 21st century.
Even Stark Industries, the most popular star arms group in all of America today, wouldn't exceed the Osborn Group by too much.
But there's no doubt that both Stark Industries and the Osborn Group are top-tier quality industries.
In terms of group potential, and the actual connections and influence.
These military technology companies are much stronger than those so-called internet companies or pharmaceutical companies.
From another perspective, companies like Stark Industries and the Osborn Group hold the present.
Led by the attractive secretary,
Ryan spent over an hour visiting many research departments of the Osborn Group.
It must be said that the Osborn Group truly lives up to its reputation as an enduring supervillain breeding ground in the Marvel Universe.
In just one hour,
Ryan had already seen a series of supervillains including Green Goblin - Norman Osborn, Doctor Octopus - Otto Gunther Octavius, Hobgoblin - Roderick Kingsley, and Electro - Maxwell Dillon.
This was only a portion of the supervillains produced by Osborn.
One can only say that the Osborn Group's feng shui is probably not very good.
As noon approached,
Ryan finally stopped the attractive secretary and said, "Ms. Marlena, I heard that Professor Connors from New York University has accepted investment from the Group and is conducting experimental research in the company building?"
"To be honest, I greatly admire Professor Connors' achievements in reptilian biology and genetics."
"And in university, I also studied related subjects, so I wonder if I could visit Professor Connors' laboratory?"
Everyone likes to hear compliments, and it doesn't take much effort anyway.
It's just a matter of moving one's lips.
Ryan's words made the attractive secretary, who had been trying to seduce Ryan but hadn't succeeded, feel a little more invigorated.
When she left Norman Osborn's office earlier, the attractive secretary had already received a hint.
Win over the person Norman Osborn values.
The attractive secretary had done this kind of thing many times and was very skilled at it.
Originally, the attractive secretary thought Ryan was a young man and that she could handle him with a honey trap.
But unexpectedly, Ryan was a complete 'research-focused straight man'.
The attractive secretary had already been prepared to give up on this 'extra income', but unexpectedly, at the last minute, she found his 'interest'.
Well, maybe it really was just an interest.
Reptilian biology and genetic technology, huh, men, you don't understand the good things about women.
"Of course!" The attractive secretary had a lot going on in her mind, but her face was exceptionally enthusiastic, and she said, "Director Ryan, the Chairman instructed that you can visit any department of the Osborn Group."
"In fact, Professor Connors' side authorized New York University freshmen to visit this morning."
"I originally thought of taking you there after lunch, once the university freshmen's visit was over..."
To be Norman Osborn's secretary,
this very attractive Ms. Marlena also had a knack for dealing with people.
Ignoring some of the subtext in Marlena's words,
Ryan smiled elegantly and said, "It's fine, a larger crowd is more lively. Ms. Marlena, why don't we go now?"
"Although I'd also like to spend more time with Ms. Marlena, I have a lot of things to attend to this afternoon."
If it weren't for the New York University freshmen visiting,
Ryan might not have chosen today to accept shares in the Osborn Group.
Two weeks ago, after hearing the news from his girlfriend Gwen, Ryan had been preparing for this event for a long time.
In this twisted, stitched-together World, there were three Peter Parkers alone.
If things were allowed to develop on their own, who knew which one would become Spider-Man, and who knew if Ghost Spider would ultimately appear?
It's better if he helps to control these things himself.
The appearance of Ghost Spider Gwen is related to his upcoming Breakthrough in Realm and Foundation Establishment Cultivation.
If he missed Ghost Spider,
his Foundation Establishment would only be achievable by finding the Witch Isabel from 'Wife for the Taking' or the Superwoman Mary from 'Hancock'.
In the Qi Refining Realm, it would be a bit difficult to control these two, and it would be easy to mess things up.
So, it's best to avoid any accidents.
As thoughts churned in Ryan's mind, led by Marlena, Ryan quickly arrived at the Osborn Group's biological research and experimental department.
From a distance, Ryan saw a group of young men and women full of youthful vigor.
And at the forefront of this group of university freshmen was Gwen Stacy, who excelled in both character and academics and was already an apprentice in Professor Connors' laboratory, arranging the students' tour itinerary.
"Director Ryan, should I have someone disperse them...?"
"No need, we'll just follow."
Interrupting Marlena's suggestion, Ryan quickly blended into the crowd. With a sweep of his Divine Thought, he had already found Peter Parker, who was quite distracted in the crowd.
Uh, it was the Garfield version of Peter Parker.
At this moment, he was still secretly watching his girlfriend Gwen Stacy in the crowd.
It seemed there was nothing wrong with that.
Among the three versions of Spider-Man, only the Garfield version of The Amazing Spider-Man was bitten by a spider at the Osborn Company and then became Spider-Man.
The location where the other two versions were bitten was not very clear.
The Maguire version of Spider-Man was bitten in a scientific observation park, and the female lead was Mary Jane.
The Holland version of Spider-Man is even more outrageous; it was never shown, he was already Spider-Man when he appeared, and the female lead was the Native American MJ.
But it's good, the Amazing Spider-Man version, although a little weaker in combat power, is more scientific and worth studying.
In 'The Amazing Spider-Man', there also seemed to be a decay formula hidden in an abandoned subway station.
At the same time, this was the only Spider-Man movie where the female lead died.
For Gwen's safety, he could only apologize to 'Garfield', no, to Peter.
Chapter 15: Aiding the Emergence of Ghost Spider
The three versions of Spider-Man are actually quite different from each other.
The original Maguire version was arguably the most deeply aggrieved and Xuanhuan Spider-Man, a type of Spider-Man that was like a spider spirit, capable of growing new organs and shooting webs directly from his body, and also the strongest.
The Garfield version of Spider-Man is closer to the comics, a pure serum enhancement, and he had to research his own equipment.
The Holland version of Spider-Man, well, he's a trouble-making rich kid, with a very mysterious origin.
The Xuanhuan version relies entirely on luck, and the rich kid version relies entirely on imagination.
So, this Garfield version of The Amazing Spider-Man was more to Ryan's liking.
At the same time, only this version of The Amazing Spider-Man was more controllable; as long as he could get Peter's blood and the decay formula, it might be possible to mass-produce Spider Serum.
If that were the case, as long as a batch of qualified Spider Warriors were created,
Ryan's forces would definitely experience explosive and rapid growth.
Ghost Spider, Spider Serum, Lizard Serum, and even the entire Osborn Group, he wanted them all.
Taking a deep breath,
Ryan, mixed in the crowd, soon noticed that as they passed the Osborn Company's transgenic radioactive spider breeding room, Peter in the crowd became increasingly agitated.
Ryan quickly recalled his memories of 'The Amazing Spider-Man' that he had once watched.
Although in this stitched-together World, many movie plots could no longer be taken as truth, the general plot background and inertia still existed.
This was something Ryan had personally tested over two years using some minor plot points.
The Pure Yang Golden Bell emitted immeasurable light in his Sea of Consciousness.
Ryan's mind and Soul quickly became clear, and once blurry memories began to become exceptionally vivid.
