《Multiverse of Marvel》9. Acquiring companies (2)
Advertisement
After the contracts were drawn open, John asked for privacy with Larry as he didn't wanted his ideas to leak outside the company. Larry understood this and made sure there weren't any hidden recordings or cameras.
John then drew his ideas on the page with the most basic idea of using a search engine and showed how the engines should work. Even though John doesn't understand all the codes and various things required for the search engine he could generally point it out to him. Larry being an experienced guy understood the main points instantly and probably got an inspiration because the other version of him in another universe had already made a technological giant out of a search engine.
John also spoke about the introduction of YouTube but he warned them not to introduce it early. At least till the point where Google has a strong platform and then they can work on other assignments. Larry was very grateful to John for sharing his ideas as he could already envision of what his ideas was going to bring in this world.
It was night by the time the whole process was done. All three of them went to a presidential suite of a 5 star hotel. Valentina went to order food as it was traditional for the Thanksgiving day.
John and the rest were tired after all the travelling the entire day and after having a sumptuous dinner and thanking the gods they all went to sleep with John sleeping by his father's side for the first time.
Even though it felt weird to sleep with someone else, John was too tired to care about as it was his father's request.
The next morning, the Jameson family took a flight to Massachusetts as he had another appointment with another famous guy on another universe.

November 29, 2002
Being the morning just after the thanksgiving dinner it was lazy with many people sleeping in their dormitories. But among them a young guy named Mark was eagerly waiting in a cafe shop outside the Harvard University.
Soon two people walked into the cafe and sat beside Mark while greeting each other.
"Hello Mr. Jameson and Mr. John. To what do I owe the pleasure to meet you all." Mark asked with a huge grin.
John was looking at him from head to toe and trying to figure out if Mark was an alien because there was an ongoing meme in his previous life which said that Mark was an alien as he looked weird. Well John couldn't figure out if it was true or not and it won't matter to him even if he were an alien. Yes! the "Mark". Here is the famous Mark Zuckerberg of his original world.
"Mr. Mark we are here to propose business to you. Are you interested in hearing us out?" John said as Jameson was sipping his coffee. Truth to be said he was pretty angry at that point. His son was flying him across countries and proposing business terms with young kids and he couldn't even get rest in his short vacation. "I shouldn't have taken this small vacation! What a headache with this kid." Jameson lamented in his heart.
Jameson even thought about rejecting his requests but then he remembered John's ideas of search engine and YouTube. John even told him about the use of cloud computing that could be used in the future. Just these ideas alone shook his world as he knew what a search engine could do to this world and the idea of YouTube and cloud computing. At times he wondered if John was really his child or an illegitimate child of Tony Stark because only Tony could come up with such weird and fantastic ideas.

"Mr. Zuckerberg, I would like to help you create a social media platform like Napster but on a much broader and larger self. I will be happily investing an amount of 100 million USD while acquiring an ownership of 70% stocks of the company that we are about to create." John said with a smile.
Mark just froze on the spot after hearing 100 million USD. That was a huge amount of money for Mark at that point of his life and he just shuddered thinking about it. After few seconds he calmed down.
"Mr. John are you sure you are asking this to the right person? I am just a student and I don't even have a company." Mark replied.
"Mr. Mark I am here with the right person. You don't have to worry about that. I just want your assurance of hard work otherwise I wouldn't mind firing you away from the company later." John said with a smirk.
"Fine Mr. John if you are so much confident it would be very rude not to deliver to your trust. I would like to know about this so called social media site that can be bigger than Napster."

The Voice of the World
Jason Elric used to be an ordinary college student living in the heart of San Francisco. He had a part time job, he played online games with friends he got along moderately well with, and he earned reasonably good grades. The worst he really had to worry about in life was turning in his coursework on time and not being late to class. Now, though? Now fighting for his life and running from a horde of giant frogs that want to make him their next meal is just another Tuesday. Thanks to a summoning ritual gone terribly right, Jason has found himself trapped in a world eerily similar to the role playing games games he used to play for fun. Unfortunately for the now ex-college student, everything happening around him is terrifyingly real and if he wants to survive, he’ll have to figure out how to exploit the system for his benefit before it’s too late. The Voice of the World is the first part of what is planned to be a multi-book, Isekai LitRPG story with crafting elements, set in the fantasy world known as Verdania. This is my first time posting online for public consumption, so bear with me as I work to find a style that people like. While I may occasionally write scenes that may deal with heavy concepts, expect this story to be primarily light hearted high fantasy. There will be a lot of common fantasy tropes involved, as this story got its start as a simple practice exercise, rather than any plan to actually post it. However, it’s grown on me, so I felt it’s worth sharing after all. Thus, if you’re looking for more serious/original/unusual stories, you might want to look elsewhere. For the rest of you, feel free to leave suggestions, as well as to point out grammar and spelling mistakes; I’ll do my best to make edits to correct them. I do my own editing currently, and it’s easy to miss things when you know what’s supposed to be there, so such call outs are highly encouraged. Content TLDR: No harems, probably no romance (unless it makes sense for the story later on) (it did, eventually), definitely no sex (keeping this PG-13 or close to it), limited profanity. Does/Will contain mixes of magic and technology (think Warhammer, Final Fantasy); copious amounts of blue tables; race, gender, and sexual equality concepts; crafting sequences; and (slightly, but not overbearingly) strong protagonists. If you don’t like these things, go elsewhere instead of downvoting people for content instead of writing quality. Update Time currently varies, due to personal injury, but the goal is 1/week on Wednesdays, with a possible smaller chapter on weekends if time/health permits.
