"That's a good idea, and we do need some support."
Li Mochen said thoughtfully, "But Ms. Drew, what you said on the phone before shouldn't have anything to do with Ferguson Media?"
Before rushing to the meeting, he had spoken to Nannet Drew on the phone. She said she had something to discuss with him.
"Of course, this is an emergency. I want to talk to you about the chief security officer of Rising Sun Retail Company. Boss, do you mind if I recommend a candidate? "
Nannet Drew paid attention to Li Mochen's expression. Seeing that the latter was listening attentively, she said, "Michael Wood. I guess you've heard of his name?"
Li Mochen couldn't help but look at the lady in front of him. "Michael Wood? Ms. Drew, are you serious? Do you think I have a chance? "
He had indeed heard of this person, but that guy was now an active major general in the military. He was the commander of the Seventh Mechanical Brigade of the Federation, currently stationed in the Middle East.
In the Federation Army, it was not uncommon to have a general-level officer of civilian origin. The key was that this person was very young, only 45 years old, and had already stepped into the Legendary Realm! He was currently a Legendary Level 1 Magic Hunter and a Level-18 Magic Warrior. He could be said to be all-rounded.
The reason why Li Mochen had heard of this person was that the news about him had recently been broadcasted on a large scale on TV. At the cost of seven casualties, the Seventh Mechanical Brigade of the Federation had raided Nasawa City of the Southern Babylonian Republic, forcing the dictator of the Southern Babylonian Republic to sign a humiliating alliance, greatly increasing the authority of the Federation in the Middle East.
And this Major General Michael Wood was also touted by the media as the number one general among the new generation of generals in the Federation Army. Many people believed that within two years, he could add another star to his shoulders.
Logically speaking, Li Mochen shouldn't have extravagant hopes for such a person, but with the example of Sampson Brut and Thompson Adams, he thought that there might be some special circumstances that would allow him to recruit this Major General under his banner.
After killing Edmund Vasco and forcing Douglas Duncan to freeze time and space, the Divine Firmament Purple Golden Pagoda of Spiritual Providence's rainbow light had increased by a whole 150 wisps. The pale golden luster on the tower had already covered the upper half of the fourth floor, which meant that his luck was now profound and his foundation was gradually solidifying.
However, it was worth mentioning that almost half of the Merit Qi came from Angela.
"Although that major general made a great contribution this time, he actually paid the price for violating the military order of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. This is a huge taboo in the military, and it's hard to say whether he has a future in the military. More importantly, I know that this guy has long since given up on serving in the army, so he acts without any scruples. "
There was a hint of sarcasm in Nannet Drew's words. "He's a greedy fellow. Who knows how much money he's embezzled in the army. It's only because the higher-ups valued his military talent and combat power that he wasn't thrown into prison. Apart from that, he also firmly believed that he would become a duke in the future. That guy told many people that when he was young, someone divined for him, saying that he would become a general in the future, a Grand Duke with a territory. "
"This is fortune-telling?"
Li Mochen couldn't help but be stunned. "He believed it, in this day and age?"
"Without a doubt! He's already a general now, isn't he? "
Nannet Drew looked at Li Mochen's face with a strange expression. "To tell you the truth, I've learned physiognomy for a period of time. Although it's still at a very shallow level, I'm guessing that if you personally recruit him, you might be able to do it, Boss. If you have this intention, then I can use some of my personal connections to help you plan it. He will soon return to Abraham's White House to participate in the President's conferment ceremony. "
When Li Mochen heard Nannet mention the term "physiognomy", he knew what was going on.
There was also "physiognomy" in the West, which originated from ancient Greece. It was different from the East's "Hemp Clothing Physiognomy" and "Water Mirror Physiognomy". In America, it was based on facial features, horoscope, blood type, etc., to make a comprehensive judgment of a person's character and future.
As for Li Mochen, because of the "Heavenly Cycle Prime Day Yin Yang Formless Sutra" and because his visualization of the four emperors, including the Zhenwu Demon-Rinsing Emperor, had become increasingly solid and realistic, he had formed a unique "imperial physiognomy" from the inside out.
Li Mochen had also learned physiognomy. Sometimes, when he looked at himself in the mirror, he could see some characteristics unique to an "imperial" in his facial features.
But could he really succeed?
Li Mochen was deeply doubtful, but he didn't mind giving it a try. He thought to himself that the cost of hiring a legend was not low, unlike Lind Ames, who was enslaved by him and thus didn't have to spend much money.
But if he could really hire this person, it would save him a lot of trouble in the future.
"What do you mean by planning?"
"Get him to come to you on his own, instead of recruiting him."
The corners of Nannet Drew's lips curled up into a confident smile. "In order to find his own king, that fellow once learned physiognomy, even more so than I did. And now, boss, how do you put it? A certain characteristic is too obvious. "
"So is this person reliable?" Li Mochen asked the question that concerned him the most.
"That will depend on your methods, boss. I suggest that you don't let him have the chance to come into contact with your treasury, and then try to give him some hope. Boss, don't you think it's too early to talk about this? We haven't even started yet, everything is still just my personal imagination. "
Madam Drew asked with a smile, "But if I succeed, how will you reward me, boss?"
"Reward?"
Li Mochen seemed to be in a difficult position. "Then what about Firefly Media? If you can get it, I will fork out 400 million gold duns in four months to buy over this media group. "
This was actually something that he had already decided to announce to this lady in the near future.
At this moment, Nannet Drew's eyes were already shining with a radiance. "Then it's a deal, boss! I've been waiting for this day. But when will your new draft be sent to the publishing house? I must mention that I've already gotten people to go through all the procedures that can be done in advance, boss. Once your comic is finalized, it can be published directly. That's the second thing I'm looking forward to. "
Li Mochen's reaction was very calm. After his comic publishing career suffered a series of blows, he no longer had any ambition in this area.
But he had recently found a ghostwriter, the legendary Lich Lind Ames, who had an unexpected talent in drawing and was good enough to be his ghostwriter.
Since it wouldn't take much effort, there was no harm in giving it a try.
"Five days at most. Five days later, I'll get someone to send the draft over."
