Chapter 174
Chapter 174
There was a moment of silence in the hall.Steve had to admit that Joanna had a point.But Joanna just pointed out the problem and how to solve the problem, but there is no way at the moment.Both Steve and Natasha were silent.
Instead, Tony became the one to stand up and break the silence.
"Not bad, not bad! Joanna, I really underestimated you. You have been wronged by the position of CFO just because of your good manners. Why don't you come to be the CEO? Huh? You have been talking for a long time, how to solve the problem Huh?" Tony thought that Joanna would stand by his side out of professional considerations, but unexpectedly, Joanna became a mess now.He was neither helping himself nor helping the captain at all.Looking at it this way, she might as well be on the captain's side!At least for now, the topic will not be put on hold like this, and he can have a good time with Steve and Natasha, even if it's just talking.
Joanna, who was stunned for no reason, looked at Tony with a puzzled face: "What do you mean? The Avengers and the CEO? Tony, can you stop being childish?"
At this point in the conversation, Tony didn't want to continue at all. He put on his usual face that he used to deal with the media and the government, turned around and walked towards the door with a nonchalant and hateful attitude: "Yes, I'm childish. That makes you My lord, go and deal with troublesome things. Forgive me for not accompanying me."
The three just watched Tony leave without looking back.For such an ending, both Natasha and Steve seemed extremely regretful.Natasha sighed and sat down on the sofa.The atmosphere of their arguing just now made it really difficult for her to relax.After calming down a little, Natasha looked up at Steve: "What are you going to do next?"
Steve's brows were still frowning together, and Joanna found that whenever the Avengers were mentioned, Steve's beautiful brows would be slightly frown like this.It seems that their owners will always have troubles.Joanna doesn't like this kind of Steve very much.But Joanna didn't interrupt, and she didn't even change her breathing rate. She felt that it was the wisest decision not to show any likes and dislikes at the moment.
"We've got to talk to the fights." Steve said with a sigh in his voice, "I mean, everybody. We've got to have an honest talk with everybody about it. Tony got one thing right at least. Revenge It’s not easy to set up the Alliance of Raiders, we can’t let it be destroyed easily. I don’t want anyone to be kept in the dark, for everyone, how to deal with Baji is indeed a very important decision.”
Joanna remained silent, but she felt a little different about what Steve said just now.At least, from her point of view, Tony was right, not just the fact that "the formation of the Avengers is not easy".Tony was right when he said that this weird guy would cause the Avengers huge problems.Even if the media doesn't make a fuss about him for a while, as time goes by, there will definitely be more and more people who don't like the Avengers Alliance, and there will always be people who will use him as an issue. At that time, the Avengers Alliance will fall into endless conflicts with public opinion In battle.
Both Steve and Natasha have work backgrounds in S.H.I.E.L.D. Although Joanna doesn't want to admit it, in her opinion, both of them still have S.H.I.E.L.D. agents.One of the characteristics of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. is that they never consider how miserable the people in the PR department are when they do things.In contrast, Tony Stark, the richest man in New York, although he is not very reliable, but he still has a sense of public relations.If Joanna could choose, she certainly expected to cooperate with someone like Tony.
But the current situation is that she has no choice.
Tony and Steve, not an alternative.They are the Avengers, one unit.
After thinking for a moment, Joanna said in a calm tone: "If you want to have a meeting with everyone to discuss this matter, I think it would be better to talk to Tony before that. If everyone quarrels at the meeting, it is better to solve the problem." No help."
Natasha pursed her lips: "It's not wrong to say so. But you also saw Tony's attitude just now. Do you think he will want to talk to us calmly again?"
"How about..." Joanna hesitated a little, "Shall I go talk to him?"
Hearing this, Steve and Natasha couldn't help but exchanged glances.Letting Joanna get too involved in this matter is the last thing Steve wants to see.At this moment, he seemed a little hesitant.
Seeing that the two had no objection, Joanna stood up and said, "Let me go and talk to him. After all, persuading my big bosses to coexist peacefully is also one of the employees' jobs."
Natasha showed a considerate smile at Joanna, quietly watched as Joanna walked up to Steve, pressed a shallow kiss on the corner of his mouth, and then turned around under Steve's gaze Go in the direction of the door.Joanna stood outside the door, turned around and smiled at Steve, before really leaving.
"Captain, let me say something more, but it doesn't mean anything else, don't get me wrong."
"What do you want to say."
"Don't you think the recent relationship between Tony and Joanna...is very good?"
Steve withdrew his gaze towards the door, and looked at the floor tile that Joanna stepped on just now with his head half down: "When I was in Los Angeles, Tony helped Joanna a lot. I am also very happy that someone can chat with Tony. Chat. At times, he was like a . . . safety net fortress.”
Natasha couldn't help but began to sigh again when she heard the words. She felt that the frequency of her sighs was particularly high today: "I don't have any complaints about his way of building a safety net. I just hope that he won't distinguish between us and us."
Steve looked out the window, and after a while he said, "Let Joanna persuade him. We'll explain the situation to everyone when everyone's time is convenient."
On the other side, after Joanna left the hall, she asked Jarvis where Tony was at the moment.What she was most worried about was that Tony had already left the Avengers Building while she was talking to Steve and the others above.He has armor and can fly all over the sky, but she is different!Now she doesn't even have a scooter in New York.In case he flies away, she has great abilities, and she won't be able to chat with him.
Fortunately, Tony didn't go far.He's still in Avengers Tower, just locked himself in his studio.
Joanna appreciates Tony's broken habit.If she is in a bad mood, she will work. If she has such a bad tempered employee under her, she must be very happy.However, it is a pity that this eccentric guy is not an employee, but a real business boss.
On the way to the studio, Joanna was thinking like this.
The studio door was left open, as was Tony's usual habit.The rock music in the studio was blaring, but Tony sat quietly at the table like a literary youth, looking at his tablet computer.
—Knock knock knock.
Joanna knocked on the door.She knew that Tony heard it, and Joanna knew that Tony heard it just because of his little movement of looking up at that moment.
"Are you okay?" Joanna wanted to say this in a soft tone, but the loud music forced her to growl.
Tony raised his eyes, glanced at Joanna casually, then raised his hand to turn off the music: "What did you say?"
"I mean... are you okay? Had a fight with that monster in Gotham." Joanna was relieved to finally be able to lower her voice.
There was a trace of sarcasm on Tony's face: "Do you remember caring about me now? You didn't think about it when you showed your friendship upstairs just now."
"You've got to be fair about this. I didn't have a chance upstairs." Joanna walked into the studio, "Honestly, I was just going to start with this so I could appear... like a person. "
Tony raised his eyebrows, but didn't answer.
"Can I talk to you?"
"Don't talk about it." Tony turned his head and continued to read the information on the tablet, "Don't try to convince me with a lying tongue."
"I didn't want to use that thing. I'm very calm now." Joanna stretched out her wrist, "Otherwise you can test my physiological indicators."
"No need. For you, spending those few kilowatt-hours of electricity is a waste."
Joanna withdrew her wrist and looked at Tony with a bad expression: "To be honest, if you continue to confront each other like this, I can't guarantee that I can always be calm."
Tony wasn't talking, but he still didn't look at Joanna.
"What was said above. I think you have a very good point."
Tony looked at Joanna: "Do you know what your words have made you into?"
"who?"
"A fool who is bewitched by beauty."
"Bewitched by beauty, I admit it." Joanna answered without embarrassment at all, "But I'm not a fool. I'm not even a king. I'm faint..."
"what?"
Joanna wrinkled her nose uncomfortably: "Keep the image of a lady, I don't want to swear."
Tony was finally willing to throw away the tablet: "Since you agree with my point of view, you should stand on the same front with me! Don't you see that the captain and Natasha are already on the same front. Let me tell you, When I was in a relationship with Pep, I was never on the same page as other women, no matter what it was."
"So, we can mention Miss Pep now?"
Tony shut his mouth, regretting his itching.
"Tony, I know your concerns. Believe me, if there is anyone in this building who can keep up with your thinking on a PR crisis, it's only me and John who is on nowhere. But Tony, put aside Regardless of personal emotions and other factors. No matter what we do with the killer, the Avengers will face a crisis. Even if we hand him over to the government. As long as someone wants to mess with us, they can get something related to the killer information, and then use it to accuse Steve of not remembering the old friendship and not distinguishing right from wrong."
Tony smiled: "After all, you still want to protect the captain."
Joanna's face suddenly sank: "No, Mr. Stark. I want to protect the Avengers. Accusing Steve will only be the beginning of the other party's attack."
