I'm in an American comic book world, and I'm starting out giving Aunt May special treatmen

As Hawke stepped out of the coffee shop, he breathed a sigh of relief. He had resolved the issue of the chief and deputy leaders for the African lab, but the matter was far from over.

Because in his eyes, Killian was already a dead man. Hawke knew that this ambitious man was rebellious by nature and would most likely run away as soon as the research was successful. He was probably already thinking of ways to mess with him.

Therefore, we need to find a top expert to take over Killian's work. Their academic and research level should not be inferior to Killian's!

Finding someone who understands academics, cutting-edge theories, and has a sufficiently low moral standard to conduct human experiments is incredibly difficult!

Finding Stern and having him agree is already a blessing.

In addition, the current group of top scientists mainly focus on bioengineering and biological sciences.

He also needs to focus on experts in astronomy and physics, because half of the Lange technology he has acquired is bio-modification technology, and the other half is related to energy, materials technology, and space technology.

Going through and studying resumes one by one is too much trouble!

Suddenly, Hawke, who had just gotten into the car, slapped his thigh and exclaimed, "I'm so stupid!"

He quickly took out his phone and muttered to himself, "I can just post a tweet."

Hawke opened (Li's) Twitter account, and Kuku quickly filled in all his requirements, including education, major, awards, project experience, gender, appearance, etc., and then clicked send.

At that moment, a female PhD student walked out of the Bates Capital Building, which was still under renovation, looking dejected.

Her name is Zhao Hailun.

A Korean-American scientist from Seoul, South Korea, she is a scientist specializing in bionanotechnology, genetics, and bioengineering. She holds six doctoral degrees and possesses exceptional research abilities and intelligence.

Prior to this, Zhao Hailun had already reached a cooperation agreement with Bates Capital, which would invest heavily in one of her scientific experiments—the Cradle of Life.

But who could have imagined that just as the investment agreement was about to be signed, Bates Capital offended the Lane Group and collapsed.

This caused the investment that Zhao Hailun had worked so hard to secure to fall through.

113 Cradle of Life [Seeking flowers and subscriptions]

"I'm so unlucky!" Zhao Hailun said dejectedly. "What if Bates Capital's collapse had been delayed by a few more days? Now... if there's no more funding, my lab will go bankrupt. I guess I'll have to find a job at a biotech company to pay off my debts."

"What should we do now?"

Zhao Hailun pondered.

Bates Capital is completely beyond saving. Most of its assets have been acquired by Lane Capital, and now the workers in the building know nothing about it.

She needs to find a new path.

But that's too difficult.

Yes, Zhao Hailun is very capable and has a high IQ. She is able to create such a great technology as the "Cradle of Life," which is very impressive. Whoever invests in her will definitely make a fortune.

But that was after the Cradle of Life had been developed and put into practical use, and only then did everyone realize how amazing the Cradle of Life was.

Currently, Cradle of Life is just a research project of Zhao Hailun, and a rather advanced one at that. Only a company like Bates Capital, with its Hydra background and equally advanced technological vision, could see the future of Cradle of Life.

But now, who knows how this plan will ultimately turn out?

What if she's a con artist like Elizabeth Holmes?

In this world, strong abilities don't guarantee success. Take Ivan Vanko's father, Anthony Vanko, for example. He pioneered the Arc Reactor, a groundbreaking and powerful technology, but did he prosper? He lived like a beggar!

Maxima often has it, but Bole does not often have it.

Without sufficient funds to develop the "Cradle of Life" program, Zhao Hailun's exceptional abilities would be rendered useless.

Under the pressure of reality, we can only do things that ordinary biological scientists can do.

Zhao Hailun went to a coffee shop to calm down, and suddenly, she discovered a tweet on Twitter posted by Hawke Lane himself recruiting scientists.

"This is interesting." Zhao Hailun eagerly chose to learn more. After a while, she muttered to herself, "Judging from this, they don't seem to be planning to invest externally. Then why don't I just bring my team and join them?"

"That's feasible!"

Zhao Hailun had already inquired and found that although Ryan Group was one of the few industrial oligarchs in the United States, it had little to show for its efforts in the technology field.

However, since Hawke Lane gradually took over the Lane Corporation, the technological progress in the past two months has been faster than in the past thirty years!

This suggests that Hockley must hope for the Lane Group's rise on another level, emphasizing the role of technology, and her "Cradle of Life" project might be highly valued.

"That's settled then! I'll send Hawke a private message first, send him my resume, and... I'll also send him some personal photos!"

Zhao Hailun made the decision.

"And... Hawkeline, that's the superhero 'King,' hehe!"

Zhao Hailun was infatuated with him.

Although she is highly intelligent and capable, she is a true woman who is very fond of men like the king who are invincible, handsome, and have a good physique.

Said without politeness.

She was the king's body fanatic.

If she could sleep with the king, Zhao Hailun felt her life would be worthwhile.

“Slurp——!”

Zhao Hailun swallowed hard.

"Joining the Ryan Group not only grants me experimental funding, but also the opportunity to get close to the King. Being in a good position is a great advantage! Who knows what might happen in the future... hehe."

"Once I conquer the king and become a close friend of Guan Zhong and Bao Shuya, I will not only fulfill my wish to sleep with my idol, but I will also never lack experimental funds again, and I can research whatever I want!"

Zhao Hailun knows a little-known fact: (agei) good jobs, like AIDS, are only transmitted through mother-to-child transmission, blood, and sexual contact.

Hawke had only driven a few blocks when his phone started buzzing incessantly—it was a notification he'd set up for an important private Twitter message.

He pulled over, swiped his phone, and found a considerable amount of information in his private messages. However, most of the messages came from headhunters or middlemen, with only a few from the scientists themselves.

Ignoring the headhunter, what caught his eye was an unfamiliar ID, but the profile picture made him pause slightly.

The woman in the photo is wearing a lab coat and has a confident and bright smile, making her very eye-catching.

The private message began with an extremely detailed PDF resume.

"Mr. Hawke Lane, hello! I am Hailun Zhao, an honors graduate of Seoul National University, a PhD in Bioengineering from MIT specializing in bionanotechnology, a PhD in Genetics from Stanford University, and a PhD in Molecular Biology from Cambridge University..."

Three doctoral degrees were listed afterward.

Hawke's eyelids twitched.

"24 years old, six PhDs? That's interesting."

He scrolled quickly through the resume, his eyes sweeping over Zhao Hailun's impressive educational background and dazzling research projects.

When Hawke saw keywords such as "bionanotechnology," "regenerative medicine," and "neuro-mechanical interface," especially the description of the core prototype of her independently developed "nanotherapy particle platform" and "biopolymer tissue reconstruction technology" cradle of life, he suddenly realized, "Isn't this the cradle of life from Avengers 2?"

"Hiss—wait a minute, Zhao Hailun?"

Hawke then remembered the name: the top scientist in Avengers: Age of Ultron who had a crush on Thor.

The regenerative cradle can be described as a technology of regeneration, self-generation, and self-manufacturing.

Based on human autologous tissue cells, it integrates gene technology, nanotechnology, and intelligent technology for comprehensive application in the medical field.

It can repair wounds, regenerate tissues and organs, and even regenerate the human body.

Ultron controlled Helen Zhao and created the powerful mechanical life form Vision in her "Cradle of Regeneration".

To put it bluntly, the Regenerative Cradle has given people hope for human immortality, is the key to unlocking human evolution, and is an extremely awesome technology.

Let alone Zhao Hailun being a sexy and hot beauty, even if Zhao Hailun were an ugly woman like Ru Hua, Hawke would still definitely invest in Zhao Hailun's "regeneration cradle" technology.

“Bates Capital’s investment targets…” Hawke glanced at the description and recalled relevant information from Bates Capital’s asset liquidation report.

The report, which was considered "useless," seemed to mention a shelved cutting-edge biotechnology project, but it wasn't called Cradle of Life yet, so it was abandoned outright.

Unexpectedly, the person in question actually came to us on their own initiative!

Thank goodness they came looking for him, otherwise Hawke would have missed out on a goldmine!

114, say it again?! Three what ten thousand?!

After reviewing her resume, Hawke found Zhao Hailun's strong interdisciplinary integration ability even more appealing. Zhao Hailun is not only skilled in biological sciences, but also has a wide range of knowledge in disciplines such as nanoengineering and materials engineering.

This is exactly what he urgently needs right now—whether it's perfecting the biological carrier delivery system for the "Extreme Virus," analyzing the incredible material and energy technology prototypes in "Langge Technology," or even the potential future application of "Dragon Bone" life energy, nanoscale manipulation and biomaterials engineering are indispensable core capabilities!

While Zhao Hailun's area of ​​expertise cannot perfectly cover the entire technology tree planned by Hawke, it can already meet a considerable portion of the needs.

"A genius...and a genius among geniuses." Hawke thought to himself.

Her research may also advance the progress of the Extremis virus, but Hawke does not intend for her to take over Killian's work in the future.

Because such high-risk human experiments require extremely low moral standards, and even if the Extremis virus succeeds in the future, it will need to continue human experiments to make progress. Based on Hawke's understanding of this character, she would never be willing to sacrifice a large number of innocent lives to make up for it.

Hawke couldn't possibly force her to do such a thing; that would ruin this top scientist.

Hawke's gaze fell on the contact information at the end of Zhao Hailun's resume, then glanced at her confident, radiant smile and delicate features in her profile picture. He had to admit, she was indeed pleasing to the eye. His fingers flew across the screen of his phone:

[Private message: Dr. Hawke Lane - Helen Zhao]

Dr. Zhao, your resume has been reviewed. It is extremely impressive; the miracle of six doctoral degrees is enough to dazzle most people.

Your 'nanotherapy particle platform' and 'biopolymer tissue reconstruction technology' have great potential, especially in improving the precision and control of biological tissue repair.

Your capabilities are exactly what Lane Biotech urgently needs during its current phase of rapid expansion.

It seems the collapse of Bates Capital was a gift to me? — Just kidding, Dr. Zhao, don't take offense.

I am very interested in your joining the company and hope to discuss the details in person as soon as possible. Given that you seem to be in New York, are you available tomorrow morning at 10:00 AM in the Chairman's office on the top floor of the Lane Group headquarters?

P.S.: Your photos are beautiful. However, I'm even more looking forward to meeting you in person tomorrow.

Looking forward to meeting you.

—Hock Lane

Hawke clicked send, tossed his phone onto the passenger seat, and restarted the car. Now he was going to conquer that woman again.

A satisfied look appeared on his face.

Zhao Hailun is not only academically outstanding, but also... doesn't seem to be clueless about social interactions; she even proactively sent out private photos.

More importantly, she urgently needs funding and a platform.

Such opportunities to provide timely assistance often translate into higher loyalty and engagement.
