American comics: You're asked to fish, but you catch a Superman template?

Over New York City.

Xu Fu looked at the clues in the text before him and a look of sudden realization appeared on his face.

The method of obtaining [time fragments] through reports was something he had discovered as early as when he was targeting Kim.

Clearly, this is also a form of time travel, which is one of the reasons why Xu Fu has not given up his identity as a journalist.

Withdrawing his attention from the literal meaning of the words, Xu Fu turned his focus back to the sun overhead.

A continuous stream of energy seemed to be emanating from the body bathed in sunlight.

However, Xu Fu frowned in the face of this situation.

"Have you reached your limit?"

After unlocking [Energy Absorption], Xu Fu absorbs and stores the sun's energy through Antimir. The energy is increasing little by little, although this increase is not as rapid as when unlocking or renewing the seal, but it is more stable.

It is now clear that this growth has reached its limit.

Or I should say that the energy absorption level of [black iron] has reached the limit of the solar energy it can absorb.

(bbaj) Although Xu Fu's body still did not feel full of solar energy, the [energy absorption] under the sun could not absorb even a trace of solar energy and leave it in Xu Fu's body.

This difference in perception is clearly due to the influence of the abilities at the [Bronze] and [Iron] levels.

Xu Fu's physical defense had long been upgraded to the [Bronze] level, while his recently discovered [Energy Absorption] was still at the [Iron] level. Due to the difference between the two, his body could obviously accumulate more solar energy, but his [Energy Absorption] could not absorb more.

"It seems we can only operate this ability through the main world's comic series before we can speak."

Xu Fu withdrew his hand, thought for a moment, and a regretful expression appeared on his face.

Unlike most unlockable abilities, the [Energy Absorption] ability is difficult to discover and even more difficult to improve. Xu Fu spent a lot of time creating content, through comics, the first anniversary edition, and the radio drama "Superman's Adventures," before he discovered this ability.

Currently, although mainstream Superman comics have published stories about Superman absorbing solar energy, the improvement in [energy absorption] is very slow.

This made Xu Fu wonder if the difficulty in unlocking the amplification was related to the [energy absorption] ability itself.

As the foundation of all superhuman abilities, [energy absorption] can only be replenished and enhanced through continuous accumulation.

Taking a deep breath and withdrawing his thoughts from the enhancement of [energy absorption], Xu Fu raised his head and stared at the satellite barrier above him.

With the upgrade of [Super Vision], Xu Fu can now clearly see the special barriers surrounding the Earth, even when he is standing inside New York City.

These satellites hang tightly in outer space, like a giant barrier covering the entire Earth. When looking out, apart from the high-hanging sun and the moon in the corner, only traces of other planets can be seen.

Xu Fu was not surprised by this situation.

In fact, he had already noticed this phenomenon after [Supervision] reached the [Bronze] level.

The stars in the Antimalari sky seemed sparser than he knew.

Moreover, even the related astronomical research was extremely obscure and difficult to understand; there wasn't a single school in New York City that specialized in studying these astronomical phenomena.

Nobody cares what's happening in the universe above; governments around the world seem to be deliberately letting their people ignore it.

Chapter 798 Public Interview

"...Mr. Xu Fu, what are your thoughts on the recent propaganda by American radio stations regarding the issue of television patents?"

"Mr. Xu Fu, some people believe that you obtained the television patent through unethical means..."

"There are reports that American Radio Corporation has officially filed a patent lawsuit and publicly stated in the newspapers that it will win the television patent case to promote the production and manufacturing of television sets. What do you think about this, Mr. Xu Fu?"

A positive world. —From the Messenger newspaper.

A large number of reporters stepped forward, rushing to interview Xu Fu-.

Behind him, John Jr. is holding a camera, taking pictures for tomorrow's front page of the Daily Courier - live.

"Mr. Xu Fu, you have been unwilling to accept media interviews lately. Is it because you are afraid of losing the patent lawsuit and becoming a patent thief on television?"

As the reporter approached Xu Fu, he posed a sharp question.

His gaze followed the direction of the question. As a seasoned Pulitzer Prize-winning anti-world journalist, Xu Fu was naturally not easily provoked by such cheap propaganda tactics.

"First, I want to correct you on one point: I have never refused an interview with the media. In addition, for some time now, The Courier has been publishing articles related to the patent dispute every day. If New Yorkers want to know the progress of the case, they can learn about it through The Courier."

After promoting his newspaper to the reporters, Xu Fu ignored their expressions and continued, "Secondly, the television patent has belonged to Mr. Ferro Farnsworth from the beginning. This fact is guaranteed by the issuance of patent certificates established by the American government. It is the American Radio Corporation that has made this claim in the news media, but has never provided any relevant evidence to support its point of view."

Xu Fu's early answers may have displeased mainstream New York journalists, but after hearing his later answers, the journalists rushed to ask questions. From Xu Fu's words, it was clear that he had developed doubts or resentment towards American Radio Corporation, which was exactly what the journalists were looking for.

"Mr. Xu Fu, are you saying that the American radio company stole the patent?"

"Please clarify your point, Mr. Xu Fu. Does this mean you are confident of winning this lawsuit?"

Faced with the reporters' noisy questions, Xu Fu did not answer immediately, but simply stood outside the Messenger newspaper and quietly watched them.

Sensing the meaning conveyed by Xu Fu's gaze, some reporters gradually stopped. After they calmed down, Xu Fu continued, "Yes, the American Radio Corporation is the one that steals patents."

Now that he has torn himself to pieces and is embroiled in a legal battle, Xu Fu naturally has no intention of speaking well of his opponent.

His remarks were not surprising at all, and they caused a great sensation among the reporters. They looked at Xu Fu with excited expressions, already able to imagine the huge public reaction after these remarks were published in the newspapers.

Looking at Little John behind Xu Fu, some reporters felt a sense of helplessness.

If possible, they would prefer fewer reporters to cover such stories, but Xu Fu himself owns one of the largest newspapers in New York, which greatly diminishes the value of the stories in their hands.

Nevertheless, they remained unwilling to separate themselves from the related news reports.

"Mr. Xu Fu, do your comments confirm your stance on this patent lawsuit? Do you think you will win this lawsuit?"

Even the doomed American Radio Corporation dared to boast of its victory in the media, let alone Xu Fu. In the initial reports, he won the case even without the intervention of Ferro Farnsworth. It's just that now, although Ferro has been proven to be the inventor of the patent, he has missed the deadline for protecting the patent for television production.

What remained was for the American Radio Corporation to subsequently mass-produce television sets.

"There is only one outcome to this patent lawsuit, and that is my victory. I believe it won't be long before the whole of New York knows about this result."

After saying his last words to the reporters, Xu Fu ignored their request to stay and immediately left the newspaper's press conference room.

Although some reporters tried to help him and stop him during this period, it was clear that with Xu Fu's current power, even if he gathered all the reporters at the newspaper office, it was still uncertain whether he could stop him.

...

"Go to Brooklyn."

After passing through the crowd of reporters, Xu Fu got into the car and told the driver his address.

The driver nodded, started the car, and drove off into the dusty area amidst the flashes of the reporters' cameras.

.. . ...

At this time, affected by the patent lawsuit, Xu Fu had to prepare special means of transportation for his daily travel in order to avoid the ubiquitous news media.

As a prominent figure in New York today, a newspaper tycoon, Xu Fu should have been prepared long ago.

However, having his own abilities made him forget this.

After all, when you have more convenient abilities, such as [speeding] or [flying], cars become a burden.

If it weren't for the fact that his extraordinary abilities were suppressed, Xu Fu probably wouldn't have made this car.

"How is the new factory doing?"

Glancing in the rearview mirror at the newspaper office receding into the distance, Xu Fu turned to Lois Walton, who had walked to the side, and asked.

"The initial modifications have been completed, and the corresponding television production line has officially entered the design phase. Mr. Ferro-Farnsworth has also offered his suggestions, and the factory is actively making modifications to meet his requirements, striving to complete the television production line within a month..."

“A month is too long, half a month is fine. I’m only giving the factory half a month to complete the television production line before the patent lawsuit with American radio begins.”

"Half a month?"

Upon hearing Xu Fu's request, Louise Walton hesitated for a moment, but quickly nodded.

Chapter 799 is equally important.

"I will inform the workers and tell them to speed up the process."

Upon hearing this answer, Xu Fu nodded and looked into the distance, while Louise Walton beside him breathed a sigh of relief.

Louise Walton is the mother of the mother and daughter that Xu Fu rescued in the sandstorm.

After learning about his partner's experience on Broadway, Xu Fu extended an invitation to him directly, and Louise Walton, who was struggling to make ends meet in New York, accepted without hesitation.

Naturally, Xu Fu had his own considerations when hiring Louise Walton.

He had not given up on Paramount's idea. He had previously attended Kaisa Group's gatherings and actively built connections. He hired Louise now because of her extensive experience at Kaisa Group. If Xu Fu wanted to develop in the film industry, he could obviously recruit actors through her.

According to Louise Walton, the tens of thousands of Broadway actors who lost their jobs due to the Great Depression are clearly a potential talent pool.

Meanwhile, Louise Walton is a single mother.

With his daughter "213" by his side, at least the other party won't have too many problems.

Judging from the previous dust storms, Louise Walton has done a good job of protecting her daughter.

Of course, many of these arrangements could only be officially launched after Paramount took over. Currently, Xu Fu's favorite studio is still undergoing bankruptcy liquidation.

Xu Fu also had to keep Louise Walton by his side to help him with daily affairs, such as the progress of the new factory.

Louise Walton did not complain at all about this.
