While An Feng is enjoying the joy of life, his employees are running around and toiling.

Before the two of them traveled to Europe, An Feng once asked John to assist Guli to find a security company, but the progress was very slow, and An Feng, as the boss, left with a casual word, but the employee was destined to get up early and be greedy for the night. Guri is also very picky, and he hopes to find companies with potential and cost-effectiveness.

After retiring from the army, Guri worked for a private Russian security company and as a member of the special services, where he worked on a complex level, operating in the southern Chechen Republic and on the border with eastern Ukraine, which is constantly in turmoil. An Feng decided that he was a part-time mercenary, but this guy refused to admit it.

Later, because of his outstanding performance, Guri was sent by the company to train at the Israel International Security Academy. He has a good background, he has been a soldier, he has seen the battlefield, he has formal bodyguard training, he has spent time in top colleges, and he has outstanding skills, so he has a unique vision - which also means being picky.

Small security companies are easy to find, because in developing companies, everyone wants to be able to get an investment, but Guri doesn't see many bright spots in small companies, and it's okay to spend millions to buy them, but the simple organization composition, and the old training methods can't keep up with the times.

He expanded the scope a little, considering the nature of An Feng's work and the environment in the United States, he thought that trouble was still unavoidable, although he didn't know why An Feng could be so leisurely, but as a security director, he would be in a daze when he received a salary of more than 100,000 yuan a year? That's not what he's supposed to do.

After expanding the scope, it also means that An Feng's investment will increase, but Guli feels that between life safety and money, he will choose the former, and now invest more, is it worth saving a life at a critical moment? After relaxing the conditions. There are more choices, and some medium and large companies have also come into view.

Then he found a security company called "Aegis Security Defense", with headquarters and training base in Arizona, branches in the east and west, mainly dealing in personnel security and item security. Personnel security is mostly short-term or long-term bodyguard work; And the security of goods is the care of valuables. or contract the defense of luxury exhibitions, and the business is mostly concentrated in California.

After all, California is very wealthy, the proportion of rich people is very large, and the business of bodyguards is a luxury consumption, and the market in California is very large. The company has contracted long-term and short-term bodyguards for some celebrities, as well as some security work for jewelry exhibitions, and is well-known in the local area, and is currently planning to expand.

With a capital of $60 million, the company is considered a large enterprise - compared to the world-famous MPRI. Dane International's funds are a bit small, but if they are in the authentic bodyguard industry of personnel and goods protection, which does not involve PMC (private military contracting) business, the giants are only half a pound or two with them.

Because Aegis Security does not involve PMC business, they do not do foreign business, maybe there will be in the future, because this is the only way to develop and grow. But now they only run civil security work, focusing on so they are excellent. Also in line with the requirements of Guri.

Guli got in touch with An Feng on the phone and talked about some advantages, disadvantages and potentials.

Guli said it professionally, but An Feng's words were simple: "How much?" ”

Expecting this, Guri said: "Your assistant has calculated that you can get control of the company by investing about 80 million yuan, which is 51% of the shares. ”

An Feng said briskly: "Then let's go to negotiate." Let me know when you take it, and congratulations, man! I'm going to be a supervisor in the future! ”

After chatting a few words, Guri hung up the phone with a smile, this guy is so easy to get along with. You say that he lives a luxurious life and spends money like running water, and that's right, he spends money very fiercely, and your thinking can't keep up, but he doesn't have the temper of a superior person, and it's easy to mingle with all kinds of characters.

Guri informed John of the matter, and John brought in Hardy, who had nothing to do, due to the transfer of Tyran's company, their current office location is located in the research center, which is very close, and they also provide personal services for An Feng, so they naturally have to build a good relationship, so they are very harmonious.

After studying each other, they all agreed that the price could be lowered a little more, and the boss did not need to buy new shares at a high price, and could consider exchanging money from some shareholders for a little ...... Everyone gave each other ideas and pondered, and if they didn't use their brains, they were really sorry for the high salaries of their wealthy class.

……

A few days later, An Feng received a notification from John.

Negotiations are said to be almost over, and Aegis Security and Defense shareholders agreed that they would inject 78 million in exchange for a 51% stake, which is a bit lower than expected. In these years, there is a lot of competition in the security field, and you can't make much money in a year - An Feng doesn't value this.

He didn't plan how much money these companies could make him at all, and his biggest wish was to be able to take care of his own profits and losses, and he didn't have to send money to it every year. It is equivalent to a force of armed force in his hand, and there are thousands of guys who are good at holding guns under his hands, who dares to mess around?

This time on his Cessna business jet, he flew to Los Angeles first.

Landing at Santa Monica Airport to pick up and drop off several of your assistants and lawyers.

On the plane, Guri talked about the communication between him and the CEO of the other company, which was a little difficult to understand about the profession, but it could be seen that Guri affirmed the other party.

In less than an hour, the plane landed in Phoenix, Arizona, and when I stepped off the plane, I saw three tall black SUVs parked in front of me.

No nonsense, open the car door for him, An Feng got in the car, and the convoy left.

The three cars are all the same in appearance, maintaining a constant speed all the way, An Feng is in the middle, the front car and the rear car are separated by a certain distance, there is enough braking distance, but it is not possible to let other vehicles plug in. Guri saw the doorway, this was to show the boss their security skills.

Guli commented: "If you really want to protect VIPs, you don't need to drive three identical cars, it's too high-profile, so that people can see that there are people in the road at a glance." If it were me, I would stuff the VIP into a shabby advertising car and follow the bodyguard convoy in a low-key manner to make sure it was better. ”

An Feng was speechless: "Fortunately, I didn't promise to buy you an MPV." ”

……

After doing more than 20 minutes of the car to the city, the convoy stopped in front of a five-story building, the man in the black suit at the door stepped forward and pulled the car door, his body was blocked aside, An Feng was escorted left and right as soon as he got out of the car. An Feng knew that they were showing off their skills, so they were also very cooperative.

Walking into the elevator, An Feng is located in the middle, surrounded by bodyguards, they press the elevator door button first, and then choose the floor, which is also exquisite.

The elevator arrived, the posts were exchanged, and the FBIs in black suits came to the door of the boss's office, and after knocking on the door and inviting them in, a man in a suit and shirt in his early fifties stood up. People are middle-aged, but they are still burly, and they can't see a little bloat.

"Hello, Mr. Ann, I'm Jason. Menseck. The other shook hands with him.

An Feng smiled: "Hello, Mr. Mensek. ”

"You may be seated." Mensaik invited them to sit down, and then came to sit down opposite An Feng, and his demeanor exuded the demeanor of a soldier, who had been a soldier.

But after sitting down, there was nothing to do with An Feng.

When it comes to business, John is very good at it; When it comes to security, Guri is very good at it, and it just so happens that today is these two purposes. An Feng listened to a lot of what they said, and suddenly felt bored, so he looked around at the office. Aegis Security has their trademark: a shield with a black and red prismatic pattern in the middle.

Recalling the logo on the collar of other security employees just now, which is also this black and red shield, it seems that the company pays great attention to details, and perhaps it can be used as the company's logo in the future, and then design a special uniform, and show its identity when operating overseas...... An Feng thought too much.

After talking about some things, they went to visit the training base on the outskirts of the company, the land in Arizona is very cheap, part of it is a desert area, and there are no plants, but the local hunting grounds are very vast, because the land is cheap, the company's base has thousands of acres.

The company has more than 1,000 employees, including more than 600 security employees, most of whom are retired soldiers. Due to the small number of people, their training is more comprehensive.

After visiting some martial arts, shooting, and professional defense drills, An Feng and Guri sat together: "Do you think it's worth the investment?" ”

Guri nodded: "Mensec pays a lot of attention to keeping up with the times, I have watched some of their training courses, it is also desirable, only a few aspects need to be improved......"

Guli looked satisfied, and with the attitude of a professional, An Feng bought it.

The final transaction price was US$78 million, with a 51% stake in the name of GP International and paid for in the offshore company's account. An Feng has always acted as an inconsequential middleman, but GP is controlled by him, so it is equivalent to indirectly controlling Aegis Security.

The registered capital of the last company reached 138 million, and it is no problem to double the scale.

After getting this shield down, he talked to Mensec about some plans, but An Feng's regulations were not clear, but Guli had a very good set of development for the industry, and then An Feng asked him to serve as the company's general counsel, exercising power and providing management advice on his behalf.

When he went back, Guri chose to stay in the local area, he was really about to get moldy, in the past, An Feng was often in the vineyard and said that he could guide An Feng to do some training, but after An Feng and Joanna got married, they went to San Raphael to live in the world of the two, and he could only wander all day long.

Guli sent him to the airport, listening to An Feng's instructions on the way.

An Feng said: "You can rest assured to participate in the management of the company on my behalf, as long as it is not a major event, you can do the rest, and you don't need to report to me." ”

Guri asked, "What is the big deal?" ”

An Feng thought for a moment: "Selling the company is a big deal." ”

Guri: "......"

He assured An Feng: "Give me some time, train a group of professional teams for you, and if there is something from last time, I will directly destroy them!" ”

An Feng: "......"

After arriving at the airport, An Feng got out of the car and hugged Guri: "Good luck, buddy!" (To be continued......)
