After Chen Peng and Dong Li went through the entry procedures as salesmen, Li Mu asked Lin Ching-ah to ask someone to check their files. Their files were very clean. One was from Qilu, and the other was from Xiangnan. Both of them had been enlisted in the army after graduating from high school. They had been in the army for six years and had just been discharged last year.
Since the files were clear and clean, Li Mu's worries were reduced a lot. He asked the purchasing department to buy a batch of cars in the name of the company, including a Mercedes-Benz S Series, a BMW 7 Series, and an imported Toyota Alfa that had just been launched this year.
Although Xu Jianjun had also given Chen Peng and Dong Li a car, it was a Jinbei van. Li Mu was worried that if the two of them really followed him secretly, they would lose him as soon as he stepped on the accelerator. As his secret investigators and support personnel, they needed a car with reliable performance and strong acceleration. Therefore, Li Mu assigned a BMW 7 Series to them.
As soon as Chen Peng and Dong Li were arranged, Li Mu received a call from Dufy. Dufy asked Li Mu, "Where are you?"
"Makino Technology. What's the matter?"
Dufy said, "Then you can wait at Makino Technology for a while. People from the Sword Brigade will come to find you in an hour."
Li Mu asked her in surprise, "Is everything settled?"
Dufy said, "Yes, it's fast. I have arranged a total of three people for you. They are all veterans who will be discharged at the end of this year. They are very experienced, and the people who can enter the Sword Brigade have a very clean background. They also have a very strong sense of vigilance and confidentiality. You can rest assured to use them."
Li Mu had a great feeling in his heart. Three top soldiers from the top special forces were his bodyguards. The sense of security was not comparable to that of a bulletproof car.
After thanking Dufy, Li Mu waited in his office for the three people from the Sword Brigade to come. About 40 minutes later, the assistant brought the three people to Li Mu's office.
Li Mu's first impression of the three men standing in front of him was a little strange. The three men all looked about 35 years old. All of them wore casual clothes and were not very handsome. They were not very tall. The tallest one was 1.75 meters, and the other two were about 1.7 meters. All three of them had dark skin and were not very strong. Moreover, the three of them stood very casually. They did not look like special forces soldiers at all. Instead, they looked more like migrant workers who had worked in construction sites for a long time.
It was not that Li Mu had any discrimination against migrant workers. The main thing was that the temperament of these three people was really not related to the special forces.
However, Li Mu did not show his doubts. After all, it was Dufy who helped him settle this matter. Li Mu believed that this matter must be reliable. These three people must be the special forces of the Sword Brigade. As for their ugly appearance and the temperament of the special forces, Li Mu comforted himself in his heart. Maybe they deliberately did not want others to see that they had undergone rigorous military training.
Li Mu's psychological comfort was very accurate. The real special forces were very different from the special forces on TV. First of all, not everyone in the real special forces was tall and handsome. On the contrary, when the special forces screened people, good looks were an absolute burden. This was because the special forces had to adapt to a variety of combat tasks in a variety of environments. Therefore, if they had the characteristics that made it difficult to be recognized in a sea of people, they already had a few advantages over others. Those who were tall and handsome were basically thrown into the art troupe or the honor guard.
For the special forces, being too ugly, too handsome, too tall, or too short was a minefield for the special forces. Moreover, the special forces were the troops with the least military characteristics in the army. They had a very systematic camouflage course. Every qualified special forces soldier must have a strong camouflage ability, especially to camouflage their soldier temperament. They must be thrown into a taxi and be a standard taxi driver; thrown into a vegetable market, they must be the most authentic peddler.
Before these three people came, they had received a mission from their superiors, and it was personally ordered by their division commander, their former captain, so the three of them attached great importance to this mission. In addition, the three of them had a very good first impression of Li Mu. The reason was very simple. It was because of the Double Support Foundation that Li Mu had set up for the Sword God Brigade. This matter had been reported to the Sword God Brigade by the superiors. The generosity of the Double Support Foundation and the thoughtfulness of them and their loved ones made every member of the Sword God Brigade very excited.
After experiencing a brief psychological shock, the three of them introduced themselves to Li Mu. The soldier who was about 1.7 meters tall and had the darkest skin was called Wang Yuanlang. He was the person in charge of the three of them. The other soldier who was about the same height and a little fairer than him was called Zhou Zhan. The last one who was 1.75 meters tall was called Wu Xuewen.
After the three of them introduced themselves, Wang Yuanlang said to Li Mu, "Li Zong, the three of us are considered a complete tactical team. In the future, if there are no special circumstances, the three of us will act together, so we need you to give us a car. There are no specific requirements for the model, but the performance must be up to standard."
When Li Mu heard that it was a complete tactical team, he immediately thought of the scene in the movies where the special forces were in a group of three, back to back, vigilant and fighting together. Although he didn't know how strong the three of them were, the moment these professional words came out of his mouth, his aura immediately came out. He sighed in his heart and said, "The car is ready for you, a new S class Benz."
Wang Yuanlang nodded. "S class is enough."
Li Mu asked them, "You are active duty soldiers. In Yanjing, other than the army, there shouldn't be a place for you to stay, right?"
Wang Yuanlang said, "You don't have to worry about this, Li Zong. Before we came, we already rented a house near your company, but we won't live there. Most of the time, we will be with you. During the day, we will go wherever you go. If you are outdoors, we will spread out to guard your surroundings. If you are safe indoors, we will be on standby nearby. If you are resting at home, we will take turns resting in the car to keep an eye on you."
After hearing this, Li Mu couldn't help but say, "You guys can't always live in the car. Besides, I don't think we need to be protected 24/7. I'm not facing any threat, I just want some psychological comfort."
Wang Yuanlang said, "The higher-ups gave us instructions to protect your safety at all times."
Li Mu chuckled and said, "Aren't we out now …"
Wang Yuanlang said with a serious face, "We came out to protect your safety, so you also have to cooperate with us."
When Li Mu heard this, he immediately felt a little awkward. If there really were three bodyguards following him 24/7, Li Mu might not be able to accept it, so he said, "How about this, you guys can be on standby around the company and where I live, but don't follow me wherever I go."
Wang Yuanlang refused without hesitation, "No, danger is most likely to happen outdoors, especially on the road."
Li Mu said, "How about this, let's make a deal. Under normal circumstances, if you want to follow me, then follow me. Under special circumstances, if I strongly request it, you don't have to follow me."
Wang Yuanlang said, "Li Zong, in fact, you really don't have to worry about anything. Since we are here to protect you, we naturally have our own principles. Although we are still active soldiers, we have already started to go through the retirement procedures. Now we have been arranged here, and there is only one task, which is to protect your safety. As for your personal affairs, we will not ask about it. Even if you conspired with foreign terrorists today, we will not ask about it out of respect for our principles, and we will not leak the secret to anyone."
When Li Mu heard that he was so serious, his expression turned cold and he praised, "Brother Wang, what you said is so professional!"
Wang Yuanlang said with an indifferent expression, "Li Zong, you are too polite. You can just call me Old Wang." After saying that, he continued the previous topic and said, "If you really conspired with foreign terrorists, although we will not leak the secret, our comrades will definitely make a move on you. Moreover, because our old leader has an agreement with you, we will not do anything illegal, so if our comrades want to make a move on you, we only have one choice, and that is to stand by and watch."
Li Mu was slightly stunned for a moment, then he nodded and praised, "With your words, I am relieved!"
…
After Wang Yuanlang and the other two people were in place, Li Mu felt that his personal safety was basically guaranteed. What was left was the matter of the offshore company. Once the offshore company's system was established, his security level should be able to increase by a few levels.
Li Mu took the time to sort out the information of a large number of people in the investment circle that Lin Ching-ah had compiled for him. Among the more than 50 contacts, he first eliminated the individual investors who had a large amount of money in their hands. After all, he was not really looking for investors.
The rest were almost all senior officials of major companies. Li Mu sorted through them one by one and found two people who were relatively famous before he was reborn. The most famous of them was a woman named Liu Hong. She was currently the managing director of Goldman Sachs' Hua Xia region. From Li Mu's impression, she had been in the investment circle for more than ten years. Later, she joined the largest taxi company in the country at that time as the CEO. She was very famous in the internet and investment circle. However, her success had a lot of help. For example, she had a huge financial family behind her. The halo and resources she had were very strong. Therefore, even Li Mu was not sure how strong she really was.
The other person was named Ding Zhenglin. This person was once known as the most insightful venture capitalist in Hua Xia, but he was also a slightly sad person. Ding Zhenglin was currently working at Sequoia Capital. During his tenure, he had invested in many internet projects that would be incubated into giants in the future. He had also helped many invested companies to be successfully listed on major stock exchanges, such as the main boards of the mainland, Hong Kong, New York Stock Exchange, NASDAQ, etc., and made huge profits for the company. If he persisted until the era of the mobile internet explosion, his achievements would definitely go to another level. Unfortunately, after 2010, Ding Zhenglin was disheartened by the equity struggle in the investment circle. He cashed out all of his Sequoia shares at a low price and emigrated overseas with his wife and children.
Li Mu could not figure out how much of Liu Hong's success in her previous life came from her own strength. However, Ding Zhenglin's success was basically confirmed. It was all because of his superior vision and his proficiency in financial operations. If such a talent could be poached to Makino Technology, whether it was in the future capital operation, preparation for listing, or external investment, it would be like adding wings to a tiger.
