After confirming that he was going to take over Kingsman, William called King Philip on the same day. Philip was very straightforward. Not only did he ask Charles to accompany him to take over Kingsman, but he also officially signed a document for him.
With this document, William would be able to get his hands on the right to be an independent judge.
After spending a few days to take over Kingsman and meet with the management team, William did not do what the nobles had expected. He did not make drastic changes to Kingsman.
Instead, he directly appointed Harry Hart as the new leader and ignored everything else. He did not even see the other eight ace agents who were still alive.
Harry became the new leader and the number of ace agents increased to eight. Therefore, according to the tradition of Kingsman, the first thing Harry did was to report to William about the selection of two new ace agents.
According to the rules, after the death of an ace agent, the other living aces and the leader had the right to nominate one person.
Then, the agent academy would gather these nominees for training. Physical strength and actual combat tests were the foundation. In the second stage, there would be psychological, loyalty, and compassion tests. The final winner would be the new ace agent.
With William as the new boss, it only took three days for the ten nominees to all appear in the agent academy to receive three months of physical and actual combat training.
After listening to Harry's introduction, William thought for a moment and asked Harry in the video, "How can those who failed ensure that they won't expose us to the outside world?"
"Don't worry, Boss. The trainees in the first stage will only stay in the agent academy. They won't have the chance to come into contact with anyone other than the instructor. They won't even know who is training them. For those who failed in the second stage, we will give them a chance to join Kingsman's logistics or support team.
If they don't want to join, the academy will give them a recommendation letter to make it easier for them to find a suitable job. At the same time, they will sign a strict confidentiality document. "
"That's it?" William denied. "That won't do. You know better than me how complicated the human heart is. Don't you have equipment like a memory eraser?"
"We do, but that thing may cause serious side effects." Harry spread out his hands. "Boss, the people recommended by the ace agents are all close to the agents.
No one is willing to use unstable equipment on people close to them. Moreover, many of the recommended people are from noble families. If something happens, it will be very troublesome. "
"Okay, I understand." William pretended to nod his head helplessly, but in his heart, he was once again certain that he had to clear out all the current ace agents and recruit new ones himself.
But even though he had the idea, William did not show any dissatisfaction with the current ace agent, whether in his expression or in his actions.
After adding Laura Crawford's name to the list of ten trainees, William patiently waited for the revenge scene of the mad flour seller Bobby in the second movie.
However, in order to find a stable new source of income for Kingsman, William specially took Abigail to Kingsman's tailor shop located in the London shopping center, Savile Row. They walked into the tailor shop under the paparazzi's lens for more than an hour.
Soon, the news that William had customized four sets of suits spread out. By the way, the history and some public information of this 150-year-old tailor shop were reflected in the eyes of the entire England.
Looking at the TV introducing dozens of historical celebrities and more than a dozen current celebrities who were customers of this tailor shop, some people quickly came.
Then, the people who came to order the suits soon found that there was actually a tailor-made bulletproof suit business here. Although the custom-made version cost 5.1 million pounds, which was 100,000 pounds more expensive than the outside world, there were still many rich people who liked private customization.
In just a few days, more than a dozen rich people came to the tailor shop to order bulletproof suits. By the way, the orders for ordinary suits also soared.
And it was this advantage that immediately made this tailor shop the star of all the pure handmade suit shops in Savile Row.
According to the estimation of the tailor shop manager, this shop alone could increase the income of at least 20 million pounds for the whole year by selling bulletproof suits.
If the tailor shop could earn 20 million pounds a year, then the bulletproof supplies company that provided 200 sets of bulletproof raw materials every year could earn 1 billion pounds a year.
This made Philip, Grosvenor, Catherine, and Garris, the shareholders of the bulletproof supplies company very satisfied.
After dealing with these matters, William, who was dealing with matters related to Aston Martin a few days later, heard Sunday's report.
"Sir, the Foreign Affairs Ambassador of the United States has sent you an invitation letter, officially inviting you to attend the award ceremony in a week. Mr. Benjamin Arthur will award you the highest level of the Medal of Honor, and at the same time, talk to you about the remuneration."
"Ha, talking about remuneration at this time? Are you afraid that I won't accept the medal?" William grinned. "Inform the crew that I'll be going to the United States the day after tomorrow."
"Understood, sir."
After talking to Sunday, William quietly looked at the information about Aston Martin submitted by Moonshard.
Because William drove the DB9 modified by Sunday some time ago, the number of orders for the DB9 that had not been released to the public suddenly reached more than 1,300 units.
This made everyone in Aston Martin overjoyed, but then came the problem.
Before being acquired by William, when Aston Martin was still a subsidiary of Ford, they only sold a little more than 10,000 units in the whole decade of the 90s.
In 1995, they only produced 700 units in the whole year. Even in 1999, when the economy was at its best, they only sold 1,200 units in a year.
But now, not only had the DB9 not been officially sold, the owners of the 1,300 units did not even know the price before they placed their orders. And by the looks of it, the number would increase greatly when the DB9 was officially released to the public.
Aston Martin could find skilled workers in the automobile city of Gaydon, but where would they get the money to expand their production capacity?
The most troublesome thing for Aston Martin's executives was that they could not get a loan even if they wanted to. Without the boss's signature, no one could get a loan from the bank.
So these days, the general manager of Aston Martin called Moonshard every day, hoping to meet with the boss to discuss the issue of expanding their production capacity.
That was why they had to meet at the Aston Martin headquarters in London today.
At 9 o 'clock in the morning, William drove the BD9 that was overhauled by Sunday and arrived at the destination on time. As soon as the car stopped, William's number one lackey, Anthony, quickly stepped forward to open the door for William.
When William alighted from the carriage, Anthony bowed respectfully. "Good morning, Your Royal Highness. I …" Anthony bowed respectfully.
"Stop, stop, stop, just call me boss," William interrupted Anthony and looked at the current general manager of Aston Martin, Sean Vance.
"Good morning, boss."
