Hell's Kitchen is never a nice place. People there are very poor, but poverty has never been a problem. The biggest fear is that people are poor and unwilling to work hard! this is the key of the problem. Just like Kai's motherland, how poor it was back then. There is a saying that goes as follows: A dog does not despise a family's poverty, and a son does not despise its mother's ugliness. But in those years, I don’t know how many people were willing to go abroad to wash dishes rather than stay in China. In those years, I don’t know how many people were willing to do any dirty thing for a chance to go abroad.
But fortunately, the vast majority of the people of the motherland have heart and backbone!
Poverty is not terrible, what is terrible is the lack of determination to change. So, the motherland has taken off directly. No matter how those ghosts slander us or obstruct us, the motherland still rises!
But Hell's Kitchen is not like this. They don't believe in this. In their eyes, there is no option to work hard and make money. You must know that the environment in which these people grew up is like this, and it is really difficult to correct it. From the moment they are born, most people don’t know who their parents are (most of them don’t know their father). Even if they have parents (or a single parent), the family environment is not much better. The family environment here does not refer to the family income. It's about the family atmosphere. Although you can't kill everyone with one stick, the parents of most people actually don't care much about their children. Waiting to go to school, the school in Hell's Kitchen... Oh, unless it is a private school, otherwise... I have to say that Happy Education has tricked American children.
Happy education... happiness is all. In recent years, it has become even more ridiculous. Even sports competitions cannot be divided into winners and losers. Many American school sports events have now eliminated the titles and medals for champions, and anyone who participates can get a medal.
For example, the recent primary school baseball league canceled championship medals and prizes, and replaced them with giving out prizes to each team, and the ranking is uncertain...
So what is the point of this league? It is said that many education experts plan to extend this practice to high school leagues... They dare not do it in universities because college leagues are very profitable. For example, players in the famous NCAA are not paid and cannot participate in any commercial activities. All the money was made by the NCAA, which is billions of profits a year!
If those education experts dare to implement this system in college leagues, they are waiting to be criticized by various interest groups in college leagues.
Having said all this, I just want to say, what is the competitiveness of children who grow up under this kind of education?
The real world is not a school, where weak people can still be praised.
In short, these children learned basically nothing except happiness.
In addition to education issues, a more serious issue is the living environment. Hell's Kitchen is such a shabby place. Gangs are rampant and good people cannot survive. Only by joining the gangs can they have food and avoid being bullied.
And in the eyes of many children, those little gangsters who drag their crotch to the ground all day long, revealing a gun in the waist of their underwear, and acting aggressively everywhere are very cool.
Due to reality and worship, many children join gangs right out of school. Of course, more children join gangs from birth because their parents or brothers are gang members.
It is really rare to emerge from the mud without being stained.
Ever since they were sensible, these children have never thought about living a nine-to-five life like ordinary workers. What they want is arrogance! They all think they can get ahead in the gang, and everyone feels they are special.
In short, in this place from top to bottom, everyone is willing to live a life of getting poorer every three times and getting richer every fourth, with today and no tomorrow.
Work?
In the eyes of those people, making money by working stupidly is the most boring and LOW way of life.
So Kai is really having a headache...it's just too hard.
Kai was good at fighting gangsters, that was his specialty. But when it comes to development... the profession is not suitable for me. Kai has never worked in the investment department. As for the leadership position... let alone that, a deputy detachment leader is not a leader.
He can fight crime, and he can also brainwash people and make those gangsters obedient?
…
After Kai got the news, he immediately found George, hoping to find some solutions from this partner.
But alas, George didn't understand either. He has been in the police force and is good at fighting criminals, but construction... is a bit difficult for him.
"Is the Stark Group really going to invest in Hell's Kitchen?" George is more concerned about this. In his opinion, whoever's business it is should do it. They are the police, and maintaining public order and fighting crime is their job, but Surveillance is something the city government should worry about!
"Well, I talked to Pepper, and the Stark Group is very happy with it. After all, the Stark family is New Yorker. There is nothing wrong with giving back to your hometown." If Kai knew George's mentality, he would definitely agree. Ah, he is a policeman, why should he worry about this?
"That's great!" George was very happy.
On the one hand, it's because Hell's Kitchen has the opportunity to change, and on the other hand, as long as the investment is real, the benefits for their 15th Precinct will be great.
In order to support the high-tech development zone, do the facilities of the police station also need to be updated? In order to better serve investors, should we mention the treatment of police officers? As an investor, should Stark Group donate more money to the police department?
All in all, the benefits are huge!
"Don't go around talking nonsense. The formal negotiations haven't started yet. If everyone knows about it, you still don't know what will happen!"
Hell's Kitchen is... a really evil place. There is nothing that those gangsters dare not do. Believe it or not, once the news gets out, those gangsters will dare to transform into real estate developers, buy land everywhere, and then collectively raise the low price. When picking up the Stark Group's wool, they don't care whether this investment will be exploited. Even if it is exploited, this investment will be beneficial to them.
"I know, how could I talk about this kind of thing everywhere?" George naturally knew the importance.
After chatting for a few more words, George thought of someone, maybe he could give some advice.
"Why don't you ask Foggy? That kid is very familiar here, he knows everyone, and their law firm is very famous in Hell's Kitchen now, and many people have been helped by them. Maybe He can make some suggestions.”
Foggy's popularity is indeed very good. No one in Hell's Kitchen really hates him. In comparison, Matt seems much colder and colder. This guy does the most work every time he helps, but he is not as approachable as Foggy. As a result, in terms of popularity, he can completely defeat Matt.
"It's really..." Kai nodded, planning to ask Foggy after get off work later.
…
Just when Kai wanted to eat carrots and worry about nothing, he was in the universe, in the mysterious space on the other side of the earth.
In the void there floats an extremely glorious and magnificent continent.
It's called Asgard!
Also known as God’s Domain!
King Odin is the ruler here. He has ruled here for thousands of years. As the king of the Asgardians, Odin's lifespan is so long that even the Asgardians are surprised. Of course, more Many people feel reassured by this, because Odin is an excellent king. He led Asgard to conquer the Nine Realms and brought long-term peace and prosperity to Asgard. Many people feel that Odin will continue to rule. Go down.
But Odin knows that everything has its end, including the universe. Of course he cannot be an exception.
Odin could feel his life force disappearing. He was already very old.
So he decided to choose an heir for himself.
In fact, there is no need to choose at all, he only has two sons. One is Thor, the God of Thunder, who is as good at fighting and brave as he is young. This is his biological son, and the other one is Loki, an adopted son. He is very smart... but he obviously does not put this smartness into the right path.
Odin did not admit that he relied on blood to choose his successor, but he saw the darkness hidden in Loki's heart.
No, just when he was sure of his heir, Loki got clever again. He actually secretly inserted several frost giants to disrupt Tony's heir ceremony.
Odin knew this very well, but he kept silent.
Family affection is one aspect. Odin once put his career and dreams first, but he neglected family affection, and as a result, he could only swallow the consequences of his own creation. From that time on, Odin cared especially about family ties.
At the same time, he also wanted to see what his chosen successor would do.
He knew that Thor had some shortcomings, such as being impulsive, not smart enough, being foolhardy, and sometimes being too naive.
But that's nothing. Odin thinks that is a process that young people must go through. Who hasn't been young yet?
Unfortunately, Odin was disappointed.
Thor has not improved at all, he is still like a child who has not grown up!
He took a few of them and actually planned to go to Jotunheim, the country of the frost giants, to cause trouble for the frost giants!
Odin couldn't even imagine what Thor saw as the frost giant, a vulnerable clown?
If this is really the case, then what does it matter when Bara fought so hard to defeat the frost giant, the God King Odin?
To make matters worse, Thor almost reignited the war because of his arrogant and reckless actions! It is impossible for Asgard to start a war with the frost giants again because of such a ridiculous incident. That is not the behavior a king should do!
So Odin was disappointed.
"Your old tricks have stopped working for a long time. We are crumbling..." The young prince of Asgard raised his hammer and shouted to his father.
"You are a vain, greedy, and cruel child!" Odin's old age showed, he was already very weak, and he was about to fall into a deep sleep. But even so, he still interrupted his son aggressively and roared angrily.
"Then you are a stupid old man!" And Thor seemed very incompetent. Not only did he not show any remorse, but he yelled at his father shamelessly. He behaved like a spoiled child, relying on his parents to treat him. His pampering has repeatedly challenged his father's bottom line.
Normally, if Kai is a child like this, he will be given a belt to let him know what family status is!
Odin was silent, and after a moment his voice sounded again in the palace: "... You disobeyed the king's orders and brought war and destruction to the people of the peaceful country... In the name of my father and ancestors, I will send you Expelled from the door!"
Odin finally made up his mind and planned to imitate the Chinese parents. When the old man waved his hand, the power of the God of Thunder began to fade away rapidly. His armor, cloak and the hammer, the symbol of the God of Thunder, all left him, and he himself Then Odin involuntarily flew into a rainbow vortex, and then Odin fished it out casually, put Mjolnir to his mouth, and whispered: "Whoever holds this hammer and deserves it will have the power of God. !”
As he spoke, he swung the hammer hard.
The hammer instantly penetrated into the gorgeous colorful passage and fell rapidly to somewhere in the universe.
Looking at the closed Rainbow Bridge, Odin fell into silence.
Although disappointed, Odin still planned to give his son a chance.
He sealed Thor's hammer, Mjolnir, and banished it and Thor to Midgard, Midgard.
Only when Thor truly grows up can he pick up Mjolnir again!
Odin sincerely hopes that his son can grow up. After all, he doesn't know how long he can last.
On the other side, Loki, who was watching his father Odin become weak as his sleep time approached, also had his own plan in mind.
But unknown to them, just when Odin opened the Rainbow Bridge leading to the atrium, one person immediately noticed the power of the Rainbow Bridge!
…
Kai was having a barbecue with Ah Fu and Merlin on the rooftop of his house.
Both New York City and Hell's Kitchen have been quiet these days, and Kai has some time to relax.
Just when he picked up a chicken wing and planned to feast on it, a meteor flashed across the sky.
Kai felt something immediately. He raised his head and looked towards the horizon.
"Asgard..." Kai muttered.
That's right, that's the power of Asgard. So familiar!
"Master?" Ah Fu felt something strange about Kai and immediately looked over.
"I'll go out." After saying that, Kai's body shook, and a clone appeared. But the main body turned into a streak of gold powder and disappeared into the air.
Afu and Merlin have both been baptized by the Holy Grail, and they can easily feel that Kai has just activated his divine form!
The two looked at each other and felt something bad at the same time.
Because generally speaking, there are very few events in this world that require the deification of Kai!
But once it appears, it will definitely be a catastrophe!
Just like the Battle of Los Angeles!
"It seems... we need to make some preparations." Afu said to Merlin.
Merlin nodded, silently knocked off the mutton skewers in his hand, and then immediately went downstairs to the underground laboratory.
…
Antica Puente, New Mexico. This small town is located on the northwest edge of New Mexico, and Arizona is two hundred miles further west. The small town of Antica Puente, which is above 6,000 meters above sea level, has only a permanent population of more than 2,000. The entire city is square in shape, and the buildings are concentrated within a kilometer. There are no high-rise buildings or mansions, and most of the buildings are two or two. There are three-story buildings and bungalows, and the tallest building in the town is just a four-story hospital building, surrounded by desert plateaus.
Like many small American towns, it's boring here. You can't expect any entertainment venues in this small, sparsely populated place. I guess the bar is the only public leisure place in town.
So unlike big cities, after ten o'clock in the evening, no one is wandering around in the whole town, and everyone goes home.
Originally, such a night would be spent peacefully like before.
But the meteors falling from the sky made the whole town come alive.
Around 11:25 p.m., the sky was covered with dark clouds, which were rolling and heavy. In the dark clouds, it was as if a hole had been torn open by claws, and colorful rays of light shone out from inside, covering the earth. The light was clear, as if the aurora-like brilliance shone through the gaps in the dark clouds, which was very dazzling.
Then a meteor quickly hit the earth!
Such a huge bright light and explosion even caused the entire town to feel a clear shock.
At first, people in the town thought it was an earthquake and were really panicked for a while. But soon, people discovered that it was not an earthquake, so some bold people wanted to find the source.
And they found it quickly, because the place where the explosion occurred was not far from the town, only about three kilometers away, right on the edge of the interstate highway.
When people rushed over, a large pit appeared there. The pit was burned red by the high temperature, and even the ground began to melt. The billowing smoke and high temperature prevented everyone from getting close. Many people speculated that it might be a meteor!
Just when people were speculating, a flash of fire flashed across the sky again!
It looks almost like a shooting star!
The shooting star is here again!
People hurriedly took cover.
But their speed could not be compared with that of meteors. In almost the blink of an eye, the fire came.
Everyone planned to wait for death, but soon discovered that there seemed to be... something happened!
The fire suddenly fell into the crater!
The huge impact caused strong winds to blow around. While the strong wind blew away the flames and smoke, it also blew the onlookers staggering around. Some of the light ones were directly blown away by the strong wind!
When people opened their eyes, they found a huge golden figure standing in the crater.
“O God, has your messenger come?”
Some believers clearly saw the figure standing at the bottom of the pit, and immediately drew a cross on their chests and chanted the name of God devoutly.
It was a majestic and glorious figure, wearing golden armor all over his body. Those armors were so gorgeous and splendid that no one believed that they were human creations. The light and patterns on them were so magnificent and mysterious. On top of his head is a lion-head helmet. On top of the helmet, a long section of bright red flowing cherry blossoms is flying in the cyclone like a flag. In the void on top of the helmet, a majestic and magnificent ring-shaped crown is suspended. on its head.
And the six pairs of flaming light feather wings behind it make people unable to help but worship!
It's so sacred, like a god descending from heaven.
The figure turned around and looked around. No one dared to look directly at the red light-blinded gem eyes above the mask!
Fortunately, the golden giant didn't make any move. He turned his head and looked at... a hammer at his feet?
