Fu Zhongliang, who was in a meeting at the headquarters of the Southeast Asia Business Department of Dening Group in Singapore, received a phone call and suddenly changed his complexion: "What? When will you notify the Indonesian police?"

"Mr. Zhongliang, what's wrong?" asked a senior executive next to him.

"The Liufu was hijacked by pirates......" Fu Zhongliang said.

"What?" in the conference room, many people stood up.

Maritime transport was one of the key projects invested by Dening Group in the early days.

Over the years, the global shipping industry has had its ups and downs, but it has been indispensable.

Fu Zhongliang is a moderate investor, as part of the investment strategy of Dening Group, some investment projects with low profit margins, large upfront investment and long payback periods, such as commercial real estate, port construction, shipping companies, etc., still occupy a large part of the investment proportion of Dening Group.

Although this kind of project does not have the possibility of making a lot of money, it is a solid cornerstone that supports the development of Dening Group.

Many long-term investments have even reversed the fortunes of Dening Group several times.

The Dening Group's investment in Southeast Asia includes a commercial port, in addition to several small and medium-sized shipping companies.

Among them, the Liufu is a cargo ship whose flag country is China, which belongs to Ninghai Ocean Shipping, a subsidiary of Dening Group.

The Liufu is not big, 2000TEU, 9000 tons of displacement, belongs to the more common container ship model, in the 20000TEU container ship has begun mass production now, it is a small man.

Ninghai COSCO has ordered a domestically produced 20,000TEU cargo ship, which will be commissioned in about two years, and then they plan to retire a number of small container ships, and the Liufu is among them.

In the modern shipping industry, the competition is becoming more and more fierce, the profit margins are getting smaller and smaller, and the risks are getting bigger and bigger, and it turns out that the larger the container ship, the lower the cost of shipping and the higher the safety.

Not to mention anything else, in the waters of Southeast Asia, where piracy is frequent, oversized container ships, and tall ships are enough to discourage pirates, don't even want to climb up, let alone steal, the chance of being robbed is almost zero.

And even if you need to hire on-board security, the big ship can effectively dilute the cost.

But these small boats are more troublesome, especially during this period, pirates and terrorists have a tendency to merge, and some pirates have even been funded by terrorists, which has become one of the ways for terrorists to obtain funds and personnel.

After these pirates hijack the ships, some of them may simply loot some valuable cargo and leave.

But some will take the crew and demand a ransom.

In some cases, the entire ship is gone, the crew demands a ransom, the cargo is disposed of at a low price, the ship changes its ship number and flag state, becomes another ship, and sells it on the black market.

This is already a very complete black industry chain.

In the conference room, Fu Zhongliang was like an ant on a hot pot, going back and forth.

"Did they make a demand, a ransom?"

"What about Indonesia's coast guard, is there any action?"

"Where is the ship now?"

One phone call after another, but the news is not optimistic.

Indonesia's coast guard was late when it was late to receive the call for help, the pirates had already boarded the ship, and the coast guard helicopter hovered over the sky for a while, having to return because it was running out of fuel.

Moreover, Indonesia's coast guard is very weak, and it is almost powerless in the face of all kinds of piracy incidents that occur almost every day.

Now, it's on your own.

......

At the same time, in Jakarta, Mr. Hong got off a helicopter with a gun on his back and an old comrade-in-arms of his own, and then looked puzzled: "This is the end?"

"yes, that's it, what do you think will happen?" asked the old comrade with a smile, "are we really going to meet pirates and fight them?" ”

Hong always came to Jakarta for security assessment, since Gu Xiaobai was attacked by pirates, he immediately came to Indonesia, in order to better protect Gu Xiaobai, he also contacted an old comrade-in-arms who is engaged in the security industry in Indonesia.

Then he and his old comrades-in-arms experienced the "armed security" on the ship together.

After a ship went to sea, they boarded the freighter by helicopter, protected them at gunpoint, sailed through the Strait of Malacca, and then changed to another ship from the other side, returning to Jakarta.

Along the way, apart from patrolling with guns, there seemed to be nothing else, which was completely different from what he imagined.

"So you can make so much money without doing anything?" Mr. Hong was about to die of envy.

The comrade-in-arms shook his head with a wry smile and said, "You only saw us eating meat, but you didn't see us being beaten...... In fact, we also have some local sources of information that know most of the pirates' movements, so in most cases there is no danger, but there are also times when we do encounter pirates, and then we have to use our guns...... Besides, if you want to do this, come on, the security needs in the Strait of Malacca have been increasing recently, are you afraid that you will rob me of my business?"

Speaking of this, his comrades-in-arms said enviously: "I still envy you, protect the big stars, earn a lot, and there is no danger, if I can, I still want to change with you, my job can be regarded as hanging my head on my waist......"

Mr. Hong smiled bitterly: "If this big star you protect has to hold a concert in a place where pirates are rampant and the security is very poor, what should you do?"

The comrade-in-arms laughed, then shook his head and said: "Seriously, I really don't approve of you holding a concert in this place, even if it is a concert, don't put it at sea, isn't it good to hold it in the gymnasium?"

Mr. Hong sighed.

If Gu Xiaobai's will is so easy to change, then it is not Gu Xiaobai.

Although he didn't know why Gu Xiaobai had to hold a concert on the sea in Indonesia, since Gu Xiaobai did that, it meant that he would not give up.

"So when the time comes, I need a large number of security personnel...... "Hong Zongdao, reliable local security, you can help me introduce a few more, and I will pull them all out when the time comes......"

"There are a lot of security personnel, but the price and cost are ......," the comrade-in-arms shook his head.

Mr. Hong also had a headache, and then sighed: "The cost or something, I can't take care of it at this time...... Anyway, Xiaobai, he can always earn it back......"

Right.

Mr. Hong's headache is still himself, in addition to going to the war-torn areas of Africa to hold a concert, Gu Xiaobai's concert is hellish difficulty.

How to arrange this security!

What about my big bodyguard system? Why don't you come yet!

Mr. Hong asked the sky speechlessly.

At this moment, my comrade-in-arms received another phone call: "What? Really, I'll go now!"

The comrade-in-arms raised his head, looked at Mr. Hong, and said: "The flag country is a Chinese cargo ship, which has been hijacked by pirates, and the other party has already killed a person, and the owner of the ship wants us to help rescue the hostages...... Lao Hong, you go back and rest first, and I'll go and see the situation. ”

Mr. Hong really wanted to follow along, but he knew that this kind of core business thing, even if it was his own comrades-in-arms, he was afraid that he would not let himself participate, so he could only go to the lounge to stay for a while.

As soon as the comrades-in-arms left, Mr. Hong's mobile phone rang, and a prompt popped up: "Do you want to become a god in the security industry? Do you want to be invincible? Do you want to easily lie down and earn security expenses? Hurry up and bind the big bodyguard system and become a ......"

The above information has not been read yet, and Mr. Hong can't wait to confirm it.

Bind, hurry up and bind, my big bodyguard system, it's finally here!
