Moreover, it happened just as the original body had finished the first draft of his graduation thesis.
Seeing the difficult road ahead for his doctorate, Walter decided to find two girls to comfort himself, which led to today's events.
However, from Shimizu's perspective, the original body was quite lucky overall. He was born with a silver spoon in his mouth, had excellent grades, was immensely wealthy, and even had top scientists like Norman Osborn and Bruce Banner as his mentors.
It's just that the former had already passed away due to illness, and the latter was probably the Hulk now.
Looking at the scenery outside the window, Shimizu silently continued to receive the original body's memories, especially his decent scientific literacy.
In the DC world, Shimizu could only study on his own in the early stages. Later, after developing, he had Victor to guide him. Now, he even had the ability to hire many scholars to teach him. With his own level, acting as a physics engineering doctoral student shouldn't expose him.
But the original body's memories were still very valuable. Being able to access the current cutting-edge knowledge of humanity through Norman and Columbia University could bring certain supplements and improvements to his own related level.
This made Shimizu have to sigh again that this time, his luck was really too good.
The start was very smooth!
Just then, perhaps awakened by the noise Shimizu made, a blonde girl climbed out of bed and hugged the naked Shimizu.
"Darling, what are you thinking about?"
"Nothing."
Shimizu reached behind him and patted the elastic butt of the buxom woman.
"Want to go again in the morning?"
"No, I have something to do. The butler should have prepared breakfast. You can leave after you finish eating."
The heartless man who pulled out his "thing" broke free from the soft flesh behind him and pulled a white shirt from the nearby hanger and began to put it on.
He really had something to be busy with.
Osborn Industries was about to start a temporary shareholders' meeting, and as a member of the board of directors, he naturally needed to attend.
Norman Osborn had just died, and his inheritance would all be inherited by his son Harry Osborn according to his will.
But…
Harry Osborn here was only ten years old!
After Norman Osborn's death, Harry's guardian would be Bernard Houseman, the Osborn family's loyal butler, but Harry only inherited Norman's shares in Osborn.
The position of chairman was now vacant. The shareholders of Osborn Industries either had to elect someone like Norman who could convince the public to serve as the new chairman to lead them, or the board of directors would jointly appoint and hire a CEO to manage the company for them.
In the past, both of these roles were held by Norman Osborn alone.
Shimizu certainly wanted to become such a role as well.
Even though Osborn Industries' stock price had fallen due to Norman's death, and it seemed to be in a precarious situation, it was still a behemoth with a market value of over a trillion.
If he could successfully take control of this company, it could bring him a lot of luck, and even use it as a springboard to further develop in other directions.
As for these blonde twins…
It could be said that he and they got what they needed from each other.
They were responsible for solving Shimizu's physiological needs, and Shimizu was responsible for solving their economic needs. It was a very fair transaction.
After finishing breakfast and changing into a tailored suit, the twins had already been sent out by the butler, Jorge.
Looking at the clock on the wall, there was still some time. Shimizu took out a laptop and began to look things up.
The current date was June 23, 2011.
Opening the Google webpage, Shimizu first entered the word "Spider-Man."
Harry Osborn was only ten years old now, so what about Peter Parker?
Sure enough, there was no news about Spider-Man.
Shimizu then entered the word "superhero" and pressed enter.
The first search result on the webpage was a video with over 100 million views on YouTube.
A middle-aged man with a mustache stood on a platform with the characters "STARK" printed on it, casually throwing away the small piece of paper in his hand that served as a speech draft.
"The fact is, I am Iron Man."
Shimizu made a preliminary judgment in his heart.
Closing the browser, Shimizu opened another folder and entered the password to open it.
Inside were various high-end scientific research materials that the original body had accessed from Norman, as well as the original body's doctoral thesis.
Without missing a single word, he looked at it carefully!
"Innovative Application Research Based on Plasma Confinement and Energy Conversion."
Shimizu skimmed through the summary and table of contents.
This thesis was quite useful to him.
This kind of in-depth research based on plasma might be helpful for him to develop the Art of Departure.
Theoretically, the knowledge here could also be used to create Hall thrusters and plasma cannons with enough power to propel rockets, provided there was a sufficiently powerful energy supply.
Shimizu pondered for a moment, closed the folder, re-established a document, and named it — TSL New Energy Plan.
…
…
8:58 AM, New York, Manhattan, inside the Osborn Tower conference room.
The ten-year-old Harry Osborn, with red eyes, wearing a well-fitting suit, sat in the main seat.
"Okay, now that everyone is here, I don't think we need to wait until 9:00 AM. Let's start the shareholders' meeting directly."
An old man with a neatly trimmed beard said, seeing Shimizu and Harry Osborn entering last.
He seemed to have a lot of prestige. His name was Menken.
Because when Norman was alive, he was Norman's deputy, serving as the CEO of Osborn Industries, and was one of the people who understood Osborn's current situation the most.
After receiving the tacit consent of the shareholders, Menken opened the conversation.
"First of all, I want to express my regret for Mr. Norman's passing. He was a great entrepreneur and scientist. Harry, please accept my condolences."
"But at the same time, I must also point out that because of Norman's death, Osborn Industries' stock price has fallen by 13% in one day. Now we urgently need to come up with products recognized by the market to prove that Osborn's strength has not been damaged."
"But unfortunately, in the years before his death, Norman shifted the company's focus entirely to the biomedical field, but there have been no effective results, which has caused the company's current financial situation to be close to collapse."
"We now lack products, and we also lack sufficient funds to develop new products, so I personally suggest that we first strategically shrink, cut off some of the funds in the medical field, stabilize the company's situation first, stop the loss in time, stabilize the stock price, and then carry out subsequent development."
Menken's words caused a group of Osborn Industries shareholders to nod frequently.
This was indeed a prudent and steady strategy.
