Spies, a mysterious group in the eyes of everyone. In fact, their work and life are somewhat different from those of most people, but not as different from 007 as ordinary people.

The story that most people like to hear is the story of a mysterious spy who broke into a certain party and stole a large number of core secrets to pass on. But in reality, there are more spies, especially in modern society.

A lot of them are actually very ordinary, and they have their own profession as a cover. Of course, that profession is not part-time. Some are even their job. Spies are just another layer of their identity, another profession.

What many people don't know is that the profession of espionage is not only trained by the state. There is another kind of spies who exist independently and have no belonging. Some spies are double-sided or even multi-faceted spies.

Serving several parties at the same time, and serving different agencies at the same time. In fact, hence the name of the service provider. Service providers, they just provide services. Serve your own clients, but never get involved in any projects.

At least on the surface, they won't be involved. Or rather, you can't find any trace of them involved in any of the projects. They just provide the services you need and then charge for the services.

If there is any organization in the world that understands spies best, it is undoubtedly the service provider. They have been working on espionage for centuries, even before the concept of modern professional espionage arose.

They're already working on spies. It's just that all they did at the time was to gather information that was called "news". The screening is not as rigorous and the quality is not as good. But at the time, it was a very good deal.

With the development of the times, especially the pace of foreign expansion of several European countries. Naturally, the service provider's site is also constantly following up. They have expanded to almost most corners of the planet.

The sun never sets, the empire has fallen, but the service providers have continued to develop with the war. The two world wars were a crucial turning point, and a large number of spies were active during that period. Some of them are loyal, but more often than not, spies who exist in polyhedra.

It was also during that period that spy groups, groups that were not affiliated with any country, began to develop. They desperately need a reputable platform to sell the information they have under the pretext of concealing their identity.

They also need someone who can keep their families and even themselves safe when they are exposed. That's what service providers do. Many legends were born out of the war, and these legends included warriors who fought for their country.

Crazed killers, unnamed spies, and mercenaries hiding in the shadowy corners of history. What connects all of this is the service provider. Of course, in that war, the service provider also paid a great price for its own credibility.

Many once huge sites were destroyed in the war, after all, bullets and shells in the war will not be avoided just because you are a member of the service station. People who lose their eyes in a hurry always do everything. The service provider also frantically retaliated back.

During the war, although the service provider suffered heavy casualties, it was once heavily damaged. But it is also because they stick to their credibility that countless third-party spies are willing to use it as a platform to sell their news.

When the war ended, casual amateur spies appeared. Some of them may be engineers, selling important information they have for money or to get their children into a higher education institution.

They may have an inconspicuous but extremely important staff member in a key department. For money, for promotion, or all sorts of benefits. Thus selling some of the key information they have.

The service provider is always satisfied, and the price given is very fair and reasonable. The most reassuring thing for them is that the service provider will never release their information to the outside world. Even the buyer doesn't know their profile.

Of course, they don't know the buyer's information either. Perhaps after some signs, they will perceive who the buyer is. But they will never engage with the buyer privately. That's too risky, and the chances of an accident are too high.

There are fools who think they are smart and have tried to do this. As a result, he was caught on the spot during a transaction with a buyer. So, he lost the lives of his family.

As for whether he was too greedy and let the buyer join forces with the party he betrayed to kill him, or because he accidentally leaked the news. Or on the buyer's side, there is some leaked news. These are already unknown.

"According to the statistics of 14 years, the global contract output value of PMC systems has exceeded 200 billion dollars. This number is constantly growing. To put it simply, it's a huge market. is a market that is on the rise. ”

The information was distributed to the hands of those old men one by one, and the cowhide had to be blown. But underneath the bragging, you have to have something real to show people. The old men are not young anymore, although they are old foxes, but after all, they are not as energetic as young people.

If they have a high-intensity meeting every day, their bodies will not be able to accept the spirit and concentrate. So the meeting was divided into several stages, and Hou Dasheng still needed to give them time to communicate with the committee under him.

They need to inform the committee members below of the jackal's decisions, the opportunities and risk assessments that those decisions may bring. While those commissioners have to do that, it's also a matter of telling them to be respectful.

"War will go on forever, even if there is no war. A large number of private security tasks, security maintenance tasks. Someone needs to take over. Hou Dasheng spread his hands and said with a smile: "Without us, a war is not called a war." ”

"Peace cannot be called peace without us."

"Hahaha...... "The old men were very happy, and the new head of the regiment was obviously much more broad-minded. The world has entered a period of peace, but mercenaries have to eat, right?! The existence of security tasks is to provide everyone with food.

But he saw Hou Dasheng and said leisurely: "G4S is doing very well now, but they are definitely not as professional as us." Of course, I wouldn't mind working with them a bit. The market is huge, and this market is big enough to accommodate more of us. ”

As the cost of manpower increases, the distribution of police forces will definitely be adjusted. This is now evident in Europe, where part of the security work is handed over to the G4S. But they only have the power to inspect and not to enforce the law.

Even so, they still save a lot of manpower. For the official, there is no need to hire more people, pay more wages and benefits. That's the good news.

With only one commission, they can be used for general patrol duties. There is no doubt that this model will continue to be accepted. Companies that receive commissions will naturally push for the creation of key bills through parliamentarians.

As long as they are not coveting the interests of other groups, then they can afford to save money on security, which other groups are happy to see.

"Our peripheral team can recruit more people. In South America, there is a great demand for private security. There are also some tasks that need to be done by someone else. We don't have many competitors over there. ”

Hou Dasheng knocked on the table and said in a low voice: "A soldier from an elite combat unit of the U.S. Army has only 120,000 knives in five years of service in Afghanistan. He only needs to work for us for two years to have 400,000. I'm sure a lot of people will want to be one of us. ”

The old men grinned and nodded. When the halo fades and people begin to think about themselves. Those illusory, former glories are not worth mentioning. Marines, glorious name. Rigorous training, and a strong sense of honor.

After retiring, they will find themselves with little to nothing. Many of those once elite warriors have become homeless people on the streets. Everything they were once familiar with had changed, yet they weren't well settled.

These are stimulating a lot of other people on active duty. In fact, the signs of this are already obvious. Even in the current U.S. military, many people have begun to study their own retreat while in service.

Some of the elites were poached to the company and became a part of the company's overseas security forces. The company recommended by the Pentagon has also become their choice. But these can't accommodate everyone.

Moreover, these jobs pay slightly more than they do in the U.S. military. At most, there will be a slight subsidy. That's all there is to the pension after death.

Working for jackals is different. The jackal will be very responsible and match you with the price of your tasks and abilities, which is very fair. Naturally, there is a bereavement pension when you die, so you don't have to worry about it at all. Jackals are rich enough to give a lot of PMC companies that they can't.

Even if it is the peripheral team of the jackal, it is the jackal's system that is strictly enforced. This is the only way to ensure team cohesion. The minimum requirement for any direct force related to a jackal is that the dog's bloodline must be continued.

The bloodline of the jackals is their system. The selection and treatment will definitely not be low. Because no matter who serves as the head of the jackal, they all work hard step by step from the bottom. They knew what the mercenaries at the bottom needed.

No one goes to mercenary for no reason, and everyone's most basic need is money. Satisfying this basic need is the next step to build a sense of team honor. Make them proud of who they are and train them to be die-hard members of the team.

It has to be said that after years of honing and developing, the jackal has been extremely successful in these aspects. Although there were also traitors, there were many more who refused to betray the jackals until they died. These are the fundamental reasons that have supported the existence of jackals until now.

It is also because of this that Hou Dasheng will require all teams related to jackals to ensure the bloodline of jackals in the team.
