Super Hero? Superstar!
After making up his mind, Yang Le reawakened the Splinter hidden in the Omnitrix after many days. Since leaving the Movie Universe, Yang Le had not used the Splinter again.
He had even forgotten that he had a Little Guy on hand if it wasn't for needing it by chance. He hoped the Little Guy wouldn't be upset.
Fortunately, after Yang Le awakened the Splinter, the Little Guy did not complain. He agreed to Yang Le's request and infiltrated the Network to search for Information about the New Warriors.
It was okay if he didn't investigate, but once he did, Yang Le was really surprised. In Universe 65B, where Superheroes were originally scarce, many street Vigilantes had appeared for some unknown reason.
This aroused Yang Le's interest. The explosive emergence of Superheroes was clearly abnormal, and there must be some deeper reason behind it.
However, investigating this aspect did not require the Splinter. Yang Le could handle it himself, and there was no need to waste Manpower on one thing.
As for how to find Speedball, it was even simpler. Relying on the Transmigrant's exclusive privilege, Yang Le naturally knew Speedball's real Name—Robert Robbie Baldwin.
This Name was still quite unique. Without spending much Time, the Splinter found Robbie's Home Address and also found Robbie's Phone number and all private Information. It's no exaggeration to say that Yang Le now knew Robbie's XP like the back of his hand.
Box Weapon was that terrifying.
Knowing Robbie's number, the Splinter could accurately locate Robbie's Position, and even infiltrate Robbie's Mobile phone through the Network to conduct close surveillance, ensuring that Yang Le could get first-hand Message.
After dismissing the Splinter, Yang Le also began his Mission—investigating the reason for the explosive emergence of Superheroes.
This investigation was simpler than Yang Le expected. Almost as soon as Yang Le turned on the Computer, he got the answer.
Star Company, the only Choice for Superhumans.
A huge Poster, coupled with dazzling Art Font, popped up as soon as Yang Le opened the Search Engine. On the Poster were five men and women wearing Strange Costumes, proudly showing off their Figures, which looked even more fit and beautiful under the Tight Suit.
Yang Le was quite familiar with these five men and women. They were Mr. Immortal Craig Hollis, Namor the Sub-Mariner, Power Man Luke Cage, She-Hulk Jennifer Susan Walters, and Miss America Madeline Joyce.
Actually, even if Yang Le didn't remember, it didn't matter, because there were detailed introductions under these five people, and even by clicking on the Poster, you could enter their exclusive interface, which had even more detailed introductions about them.
These introductions were mostly about their Achievements, such as defeating a Supervillain, saving a sinking Ship, rescuing victims from a fire, and so on.
Even under these exclusive interfaces, there were Forum Links belonging to each of them, just like normal Stars.
After reading these miscellaneous things, Yang Le had only one Idea, which was...
Vought Company has attacked?
It's no wonder Yang Le was overthinking. This set of Superhuman star-making strategy was really like The Boys. Although there were Super Hero Programs in the Marvel original works, they were only mentioned in passing, and not as well-developed as Vought Company in The Boys, but in Universe 65B now, it was being done quite decently.
However, after careful consideration, Yang Le was relieved. After all, in the original works, the New Warriors, where Speedball was, participated in a Reality Show Program with Superheroes as the protagonists. It was precisely because of the Exposure Rate brought by the program that Speedball's ambition grew and he became eager to make contributions, eventually making mistakes.
In Yang Le's view, it was obvious that Superhero Stars were very popular compared to Other Universes, because Universe 65B's original Super Hero Resources were very scarce, almost non-existent. The most famous one was actually Captain America, an Old Relic from the last century.
That's right, it was the one George and the others locked up on the Osborn Group Rooftop.
After that, there was Gwen, who was Spider-Woman, and Fourarms, whose Exposure Rate was not low.
By the way, the reason why Fourarms, transformed by Yang Le, was so popular was also thanks to the spontaneously formed Civil Organization—Fourarms Fan Club.
Yes, that Organization that JJJ had criticized. Although Fourarms had not appeared for almost two years, this Organization was still there, but the number of people had decreased a lot, and they had all gone to support other Superheroes. There was no way around it, the Exposure Rate was too low, and Fan Loyalty would definitely be depleted, although Yang Le didn't care.
Now it was good, Yang Le became more and more interested in investigating, and understood this Star Company from beginning to end. He found that besides the New Warriors, they also had many Teams. Basically, their five Top Cards each led a Squad. Except for Namor, because he was Namor the Sub-Mariner, and his activity range was all in the Sea, he naturally had his Tribesmen to help him, and did not need Manpower help.
And the New Warriors that Speedball, whom Yang Le was concerned about, belonged to was Mr. Immortal's Team. Yang Le only glanced roughly at the other Teams, after all, priorities still had to be distinguished.
After Yang Le finished reading the Information on the surface, he transformed into Upgrade and began searching for Information in the dark that was unknown to Ordinary People. It really did allow Yang Le to discover something interesting, which was that Osborn Group's Figure was actually behind Star Company, and even SHIELD showed signs of involvement.
After further digging by Yang Le, he learned the Full Appearance of the matter. This so-called Star Company was actually a Means to supervise Superhumans. After all, as mentioned before, Superheroes in Universe 65B were very scarce, while Supervillains were common.
This was because these Superhumans suffered Discrimination in Life. Although they were very strong, in today's Society, Ordinary People were the General Public. Whether it was because of Fear or because of jealousy, in short, the living Environment of Superhumans was not good.
This led to these people often going to extremes, because committing crimes with Superpower was really too easy.
So, in order to prevent these things from happening, the largest Osborn Group today, in conjunction with SHIELD, established Star Company. They were responsible for packaging these Superhumans as Superheroes, making them Stars, and allowing them to support themselves through normal channels.
Now, not only were Superhumans recruited as Vigilantes to deal with Supervillains, but positive guidance was also provided. Now, regardless of age or gender, everyone regarded Superheroes as Idols, and the Crime Rate had therefore decreased a lot.
SHIELD and Osborn Group could also make a lot of money from the Benefit brought by Superheroes. It could be said to be a Good Strategy with multiple benefits. Even Yang Le couldn't help but give a thumbs up to the person who came up with this Method.
Norman Osborn, sitting in the Office, couldn't help but sneeze.
