Chapter 76: Rock Security
September 5th.
There was also a light rain in New York yesterday.
It's all over for today.
It looks like it's going to be a sunny day.
morning
Edward Seflotsa said goodbye to his wife and two two-year-old twin daughters.
He drove to the Queens corporate headquarters.
Edward was once a member of the SEAL Team.
After retiring from the army, his father wanted him to return to inherit the family business.
Seflosa Farm is a bit smaller than Smith Farm, but their family is also millionaire.
It's just that Edward is no longer used to life on a farm in rural Texas.
After a year at home, he fled to New York, despite his father's objections.
All Texans as well.
Abel had just gone to New York and entered Wall Street.
Edward came to New York, but joined a security company.
The company he joined was called Rock Security.
Translated into Chinese can be transliterated as "Luke" or directly translated as "rock".
Rock Security, at its time, was a miniature security company.
But it was also once brilliant.
In 1989, Rock Security was formed with the voluntary cooperation of several veterans of the U.S. Special Forces who had been discharged.
In 1990, it officially began to undertake domestic and foreign security services and other security service projects.
In 1991, Rock Security caught up with the "good times."
As a PMC, he joined the queue in the Gulf War and made a lot of money.
After that, it went straight down, and several founders had too many differences and broke up directly.
One of them stayed, continuing to operate Rock Security.
At this point, the vitality of Rock Security has been greatly damaged, and the scale has not been large, and it has been making a little money in New York.
Edward joined the company because he happened to be a big soldier in 91 when he had just enlisted in the army.
At that time, he had seen the elite combat personnel of this company, and he felt very cool.
I came to New York and met this company again.
So I joined.
It's just that after joining, he was disappointed.
Because the current rock security has long since lost its former glory.
When he joined, there was only one security department left, and one logistics department left.
There are about eleven bodyguards in the security department, and there are only five people in the logistics department plus the boss.
At its peak, there were thousands of employees at Rock Security.
Now it's just a security company of a dozen or so people.
The only thing he could see in the whole company was the remaining colleagues in the security department.
The boss was one of the founders of the year because he was a retired elite.
The ability to run a company to take on business is poor, but the ability to train and select bodyguards is excellent.
The eleven bodyguards, including Edward, are all retired elites.
However, no matter how high the quality of the personnel is, it is useless.
If you can't get a good job, your income won't be high.
The income is not high, and it is impossible for the elite to stay any longer.
As a result, the turnover rate of Rock Security is extremely high.
It is even laughed at as the "military school" of the New York bodyguard industry.
It is said that the whole of New York, most of the East Coast security companies.
Whenever there is a shortage of people, or when there is a need for high-quality bodyguards.
will run to the foot of the rock security digging wall....
So much so, when Edward joined.
The company is no longer in business.
The boss, Plimpton, is already thinking about directly changing the company into a company that trains bodyguard personnel.
Since it is a "military school", it is better to really be a "military school".
At that time, Edward had been working for more than a month, and when he saw that the company had no future, he had already written his resignation.
It was at this time that Abel appeared.
He and the company's boss, Pleton, talked in the office for a while.
After Pleton came out of the office, he directly announced that the new boss of the company in the future was Abel.
Pleton himself became the company's chief training officer.
Then the new boss announced new requirements, new jobs.
And most importantly, new treatment.
Edward stayed and began his career as a bodyguard in New York.
Today's Rock Security, the company's headquarters are still in Queens.
This compares to when Edward first joined, there were only sixteen people in the company.
Today, there are 75 people in the whole company.
Among them, there are 6 people in the logistics department, 5 people in the administration department and 9 people in the training department.
45 members of the Department of Security.
10 people from other departments.
Compared to the big security companies or PMCs, Rock Security is still a small guy.
Fortunately, by the time Edward joined, that decay had been swept away.
The rock is now secured.
With the support of the boss, the whole company exudes vitality.
Edward, who lives in Jersey City, drives a car through Manhattan.
Luckily, I didn't get stuck in traffic, and after driving for more than 40 minutes, I finally arrived at the company's headquarters in Queens.
When he arrived, it was only half past eight in the morning.
I looked at the time, and the situation outside the company's headquarters.
He nodded in satisfaction,
The time is accurate, the boss hasn't come yet.
In the other corner of the parking lot of the company's headquarters, he saw that the company's former owner, Mr. Plimpton, now the chief training officer, had just arrived and was parking.
After getting out of the car, Edward smiled and waved at him.
Mr. Chief Training Officer responded and walked over with a smile.
Then the former boss lowered his voice and asked Edward:
"Seflosa. Today, the boss is going to come to inspect, do you know what the main inspection is? ”
In normal times,
For the most part, Plimpton, the chief training officer, is not actually at the company's headquarters.
He is mostly in his hometown in New Jersey, on a training ground that is about 100 acres long.
It was the training ground for Rock Security, and it was also Princeton's own property.
After selling the company, Plinton continued to work in Rock Security.
The content of his job is to train the company's security personnel in the training ground.
And the company paid for it and rented his training ground.
So he usually works from home, and the content of his work is also his favorite type.
This is really a great thing for Plimpton, who is in his 50s this year.
Yesterday, Edward called him out of the blue.
Said that today's boss is going to come to the headquarters of the company in Queens to inspect.
I want Plinton to come over early today, and at the same time inform the whole company that everyone who has not gone out to work will come over today.
It's still the kind that can't take leave.
Edward was very solemn and hung up the phone.
That's why when he saw Edward in the parking lot today, Printon asked so curiously.
Edward looked at Plimpton, who was now the company's head of security and chief bodyguard.
The status is the same as Princeton's head of training and chief training officer.
"I don't know. Maybe it's a routine inspection. Edward was uncertain.
The bodyguards at Rock Security have always been working.
Some of them are responsible for security at Smith Capital.
It's the kind of standing guard at the door, which is relatively relaxed.
Eight people are needed a day, divided into two shifts.
More people are responsible for the boss's own security.
And the work of the bosses and the women.
This is where the most people are needed, counting the manpower left in the boss's main residence.
This piece, almost 30 people were used.
45 company bodyguards, except for rotation and training of some people.
Basically all of them are working.
Seeing that even Edward, the boss's most trusted bodyguard captain, didn't know.
Plimpton shrugged: "Well, even you don't know. Then only the boss himself knows. ”
Edward nodded, then watched as a car pulled into the company parking lot.
"Andy is here. Today is Tex on duty. Edward saw the man who had come down from the car after it had been parked.
He spoke.
Plimpton also looked at the time, and the old guy shrugged again.
"I don't like this guy." Plinton lowered his voice, "I should say, I don't like all the-stirring sticks!" ”
"Uh~"
Edward also lowered his voice, "You are discriminating, and you will be scolded in California." ”
"Also..... Andy is not a-stirring stick. ”
"He's the one who got stirred up by the-stirring stick."
"Okay." "You have a point," Plinton said. ”
Then the next moment, the old guy smiled at Abel's driver and said:
"Hi, good morning. Andy, is Tex on duty today? ”
"Yes."
Most of my main job is to help Abel drive.
But Andy, who occasionally works as an Anne Hathaway driver, walked over with a smile.
His voice was soft, sounding without a hint of force.
Like a girl.
"Today is Tex on duty. Oh, look, he's already here. ”
"The boss is here too."
It turned out that while talking, a small convoy of three cars formed.
I have already driven into the parking lot of the company's headquarters.
The one in the middle is the boss's Cadillac STS.
