Chapter 580 Security Company
Gu Jia showed unparalleled obedience to Luo Yang.
If I had to give it a score, it would definitely be above 90.
Moreover, this woman was very resilient. Even though she was tormented until three in the morning and was seriously injured, she still got up at seven o'clock the next day to wash up, and rushed to the city early to buy gifts and pay for Luo Yang to fulfill his promise last night.
It seems that the five-dimensional theory has PUA-ed Gu Jia.
Luo Yang slept until after ten o'clock the next day, and was woken up by the ringing of the phone.
"Boss Luo, you didn't just wake up, did you?"
A yawn could even be heard on the phone. Zhang Weilun smiled and joked, "It seems like you had a hard time working overtime last night."
"If you hadn't called me, I would have slept until lunch."
Luo Yang put on his pajamas and went to the bathroom to wash up while talking on the phone with Zhang Weilun: "I need to brush my teeth and wash my face now. If you have anything to say, just tell me."
"Do you have plans for next Tuesday night?"
Hearing the sound of water running coming from the phone, Zhang Weilun stopped chatting.
He said briefly, "A buddy of mine is coming back from the United States and will land tonight. A few friends are planning to organize a dinner party for him on Tuesday night. Didn't you mention before that you wanted to meet my group of friends? This time everyone is gathered together. Do you want to join the dinner party?"
"It should be fine on Tuesday night."
Luo Yang, with toothpaste foam in his mouth, spoke unclearly: "Send the dinner time and address to your phone in advance, and I will go directly there when the time comes."
"Okay, that's settled."
Zhang Weilun replied to Luo Yang happily, and then asked with a smile: "By the way, did you get that girl last time?"
"?"
Luo Yang was gargling with water in his mouth and had no time to respond.
"No way, Mr. Luo, don't tell me that it was her that we dealt with last night!"
Zhang Weilun's exaggerated voice came through the microphone of his mobile phone: "Brother, I can only worship you!"
"Gulp, gulp, gulp!"
Luo Yang took a few sips of water before he had time to respond to Zhang Weilun.
"What's going on in your mind all day long?"
He took off the towel and rinsed it, wrung it dry and wiped his mouth: "Zhao Xueqing is now a senior executive of a large company with an annual salary of one million. At least in the short term, she seems to have a bright future. Now is not the right time, but I have buried the hook and will hook her when the time is right."
"Haha, I was wrong. I'll take the blame and have one more drink on Tuesday night!"
Zhang Weilun laughed awkwardly and quickly changed the subject.
"Would you like to play ball this afternoon?"
"I have an appointment to have tea and discuss things this afternoon. Let's play ball together again when we have a chance."
After washing up, Luo Yang picked up his phone again, answered the call while walking out of the bedroom and into the living room.
"Okay, let's make an appointment next time when we have time."
Having achieved his goal, Zhang Weilun didn't waste any more words. He said a few polite words to Luo Yang and hung up the phone.
It’s not that he refused, he actually made an appointment with someone to discuss something.
When chatting with his father-in-law Jiang Yuanshan before, Jiang Fan mentioned that he would travel to Europe with his mother after graduation. At that time, he thought about setting up a security department in the group, or setting up a separate security company under the group.
This matter has never been forgotten and is still being carried forward.
Given the current scale of the Lingshi Palace Group’s headquarters, it does not even have its own office floors, let alone a headquarters building. Security work is handed over to the property department of the rented commercial building.
Therefore, it is unrealistic to set up a security department at the group headquarters at this stage.
After weighing the pros and cons, Luo Yang planned to set up a separate security company under the group.
This matter was handed over to Yu Haiping at the beginning of the month to investigate the preliminary preparations. After some understanding, he found out that the procedures for setting up a security company in Shanghai were not as simple as imagined.
Apart from the conditions required for registering a normal company, there is no need to say much about professionalism.
The key is to obtain a security service license before registering.
This security service license cannot be approved by just any department. It requires the public security agency to conduct a material review and background check.
After understanding the entire process, if everything goes well, it will take about two or three months to get approval.
It is already mid-April and the graduation ceremony will be held in June, which seems a bit late.
Under such circumstances, Luo Yang could only consider the method of walking on two legs.
On the one hand, I was actively preparing to apply for and set up a security company on my own. On the other hand, I tried to go the acquisition route to see if I could find a security company willing to sell in a short period of time.
The person I had an appointment with this afternoon was the owner of a security company that was willing to sell.
After boiling a pot of water and making himself a cup of green tea, Luo Yang began to contact Cong Shanshan and asked her to transfer 10 cash from her personal account to Gu Jia.
"Mr. Luo, Dong Xing returned home last night. I went to the Pudong International Airport to pick him up."
After talking about the transfer, Cong Shanshan made another report: "I mentioned the establishment of the charity foundation and that you need an invitation letter for the internal recommendation meeting next week. Dong Xing said that he would personally deliver it to your office on Monday and talk to you about asset acquisition."
"Dong Xuan has returned to China?"
Luo Yang sat on the sofa, smoking a cigarette and said, "That's all, nothing else?"
"Uh"
Cong Shanshan hesitated for a moment before saying, "On the way home from the airport, I did ask about your recent situation. I only answered Dong Xing about what happened the night before yesterday. I didn't reveal a single word of what I shouldn't have said."
"What do you mean you shouldn't say it?"
Luo Yang was curious. He remembered that they didn't seem to talk about anything excessive that night.
"I didn't mention your inquiry about the progress of asset acquisition to Dong Xing."
Cong Shanshan replied to Luo Yang with a smile: "And I didn't tell you about buying a house to raise canaries."
What a mess.
The house was bought for free to store Chu Weiwei's valuables, so that she could hide the source of her luxurious living expenses from her family. After Cong Shanshan's twist, it became his home for raising canaries.
Haha, Cong Shanshan is overthinking it.
If a house is bought for three or four million now, the assets will easily double in five or six years. Do you really think Luo Yang is doing this to save the rent?
Thinking of this, a joke that was not a joke suddenly popped up in his mind.
A boss spent more than one million yuan to buy a house in Shanghai to support a mistress, and gave this woman 50 yuan in pocket money every year. However, his wife found out 10 years later. After doing the math, the boss actually made no loss, because in these 10 years, he spent less than 1000 million yuan on his mistress, while the house had risen to nearly 10 million yuan after 1500 years.
"Mr. Luo, Dong Xing will definitely call you today, so don't let it slip."
While Luo Yang was stunned, Cong Shanshan said in a tender voice: "If Dong Xing knew that I was reporting you in private, he would definitely skin me alive."
"Okay, I get it."
Luo Yang came to his senses, told Cong Shanshan to transfer the money as soon as possible and then hung up the phone.
Looking at the time, it was almost eleven o'clock. He put out his cigarette and prepared to change his clothes and go out for dinner.
Before I could stand up, the phone rang again.
If I hadn't just finished talking to Cong Shanshan on the phone, I would have thought Dong Xuan was with her.
"Dong Xing, why did you think of calling me on this weekend?" "Why, are you disturbing Mr. Luo's fun?"
There was a sense of laziness in Dong Xuan's voice. She just flew back from Europe last night. Shouldn't she be suffering from jet lag? Why would she call me at this time?
"I was so busy this week that I wished I could have two bodies at a time. It's a rare weekend that I don't have to go back home, so I slept in."
Luo Yang smiled and teased: "Dong Xing's voice sounds strange, as if he is still asleep."
"Don't mention it. I just came back from a vacation in Europe last night. I was supposed to be adjusting to the jet lag after staying up until the morning, but a leader from the head office called me a little after ten o'clock. Now I'm so sleepy, but I can't fall asleep. This half-dead state is so uncomfortable."
Dong Xuan started the conversation by complaining: "Why, I just heard that you didn't go back to Yang City this weekend?"
Haha, didn’t Cong Shanshan tell you where I was last night?
"It's graduation season, and I have to go back to school to write my thesis, so I didn't go back home this week."
Luo Yang replied with a smile: "Why, Dong Xing plans to invite me to dinner?"
"I'm in such a state that I can't eat anything right now, but I can try eating people."
This woman is not at all vague when it comes to making dirty jokes.
Fortunately, she still had something serious to say, so after joking, she continued, "I heard from Shanshan that your charity foundation has been established. Congratulations, Mr. Luo. It's a large-scale one right from the start, with hundreds of millions of dollars in funding. You will definitely have a place on the Magic City Charity List in the future."
"Speaking of this matter, it's a good opportunity to ask a question."
In fact, both of them knew it in their hearts, but they pretended to know nothing.
"You say."
"There will be an internal recommendation meeting in your bank in the middle of this month. Please help me get two invitations."
Luo Yang briefly recounted the foundation's financial operations.
"If Mr. Luo has any request, I will definitely do it."
Dong Xuan agreed with a smile: "I'll ask someone to get two when I get back to the bank on Monday morning. I'll deliver them to you in person and talk to you about the asset acquisition."
"Any clues?"
Luo Yang said "joyfully": "Okay, I'll call An Ying over as well, and I'll wait for your good news then."
I forced myself to chat for a few more sentences, but then I heard constant yawning from the other end of the line.
What do you mean I can’t sleep? It’s obvious that I’m extremely sleepy.
Luo Yang took the initiative to end the chat and hung up the phone.
Yu Haiping was very punctual. He contacted his boss at one o'clock in the afternoon to remind him of the location and time of his appointment this afternoon.
The place where the two parties met to discuss the matter was in Jing'an. It was said that the teahouse was not far from the security company. If the talks went well, it would be convenient for Luo Yang to go over and take a look.
"Boss, this is Mr. Xu Yongsheng from Sihai Security Company, and the other one is Tan Yaohua, the director of their company's security department."
After Yu Haiping picked up Luo Yang downstairs, he led him to the box on the third floor. At this time, Xu Yongsheng and Tan Yaohua had already arrived.
"Boss Xu, Minister Tan, hello."
Luo Yang shook hands with everyone and introduced himself: "I am Luo Yang, the chairman of Lingshi Palace Group, and this is my assistant Yu Haiping. I believe you have met each other before."
"I know him. Assistant Yu is a very sincere person."
Xu Yongsheng is only a little over meters tall. Although he is in his forties, he looks quite energetic and speaks with a strong voice. You can tell at first glance that he is a military man.
He smiled heartily, holding Luo Yang's hand while praising Yu Haiping: "And he can drink. In just a few days, he managed to become my friend. Hahahaha"
The other security director, Tan Yaohua, was different. He was nearly meters tall, his body was as thin as a door panel, but he didn't like to talk much.
After shaking hands, he sat down quietly with Xu Yongsheng.
"Looks like Mr. Xu is a straightforward person, so I'll get straight to the point."
Eat according to the food available and speak according to the people you meet.
It is better to be direct when dealing with people with a personality like Xu Yongsheng.
"I like to be more direct. Mr. Luo, please go ahead."
"As for me, I want to set up a security company. I am currently making preparations for both scenarios. On the one hand, I have my subordinates preparing materials and venues, and intend to apply for a security license. On the other hand, I am looking for an existing security company to acquire."
Luo Yang was frank: "Assistant Yu also gave me a general introduction of your company before, but it was not so detailed, and he did not elaborate on your request, Mr. Xu. Now that we are meeting and chatting, Mr. Xu might as well speak frankly."
"Of course, we met here today just to have a serious chat."
Xu Yongsheng smiled and continued, "Before I say anything, I have a small question. I wonder if Mr. Luo can help me solve it?"
"Please ask, Mr. Xu."
"Since Mr. Luo is already preparing to apply for a security license, why is he in such a hurry to go the acquisition route?"
"I knew President Xu would be confused about this."
Luo Yang laughed, then said: "Actually, I'm a little embarrassed to say this. My fiancée is going to take her mother to travel to Europe in early July. It's a long trip and they're going to visit many places. I'm worried about their safety, so I thought of setting up a security company."
Xu Yongsheng: “.”
He turned his head and looked at his subordinate Tan Yaohua, and they looked at each other in surprise.
I thought of many possibilities, but I never guessed this was the reason.
"Haha. Mr. Luo really cares about his fiancée!"
Xu Yongsheng laughed dryly. Not knowing how to respond, he simply started to introduce his company: "Boss Luo, I founded Sihai Security Company, and it has been around for quite some time. Our current business scope includes unarmed escort, personal bodyguard, safety inspection and other services, as well as doormen, patrols and guards outsourced by property companies. In addition, we also operate some cameras and other alarm equipment, and our company is responsible for on-site installation and maintenance."
It did not exceed Luo Yang's expectations.
In fact, with the establishment of Luoyang Tourism Real Estate Company and Property Management Company, there will be a lot of job demands for community security in the future.
"Last year, the company's revenue reached 552 million, and its profit exceeded 70. The company currently has fixed assets of million and 42 full-time employees."
"According to Mr. Xu, the company is operating well. Why would he suddenly want to sell it?"
Of course Luo Yang would also raise his own questions.
“There are many factors”
Xu Yongsheng smiled bitterly and told the truth: "The first is the scale issue. Although the company had a slight surplus last year, it has been difficult to expand its scale because of the low business volume. In addition, the newly established security companies in the market now have extraordinary backgrounds, abundant funds, and it is easy to get business. A small security company like mine can only survive on the margins. Finally, there are some personal reasons for me. If Mr. Luo wants to hear it, then I will..."
"For personal reasons, forget it."
Seeing Xu Yongsheng's embarrassment, Luo Yang reached out to stop him from talking: "So, Mr. Xu, how much money do you want?"
"The money isn't much. After all, the fixed assets are not worth much, and the original business is just this much. If Mr. Luo really wants to take over, just give him 500 million."
Xu Yongsheng looked at Luo Yang and said, "The key is whether Mr. Luo can slow down when he takes over Sihai. The staff in the company's security department are all retired soldiers who rely on this job to support their families. If Mr. Luo clears them out as soon as he takes over, they will be in trouble in a short time."
Fortunately, it’s not impossible to fire him, he just needs to delay it.
"I now own more than a dozen companies. Whenever there is a security job, my requirement to the human resources department is to only recruit retired personnel."
Luo Yang looked at Xu Yongsheng and said, "Boss Xu, I am no worse than you in this regard."
