Chapter 11 Spending money to save lives
"Body Guard?" Butler Hu was stunned, then suddenly realized and said seriously: "If you have seen a lot of bodyguards, you also know where Diaoyutai is. You have some experience in this area."
Johnson asked the other party to sit down again and pour tea himself. He specialized in his profession and could serve the national leaders at Diaoyutai. How could he be a futile reputation?
He sincerely asked for advice: "I want to find a driver, which is easy to enter and exit. Do you have any good recommendations?"
Butler Hu took the tea with both hands, and saw that Johnson didn't seem to be joking. He said seriously: "Since you think of me, let me give you some personal suggestions. You have to weigh the choice yourself."
Johnson nodded, listened with a sip of tea, butler Hu explained: "I have seen many bodyguards in the State Guesthouse for so many years. Needless to say, foreign leaders are all government agents. The rich like to use Israeli security companies. Small countries have many wars and high practical combat levels, such as Black Water."
"As for the country, I have seen a lot. For example, Jack Ma, entering and leaving is very simple, with only one real bodyguard. Li Tianjin, whose official position is a security assistant, is almost intimate."
"Jack Ma is a martial arts fan and he also practices Tai Chi himself. The bodyguard was once the national champion of Tai Chi. He is not only good at punching and kicking, but also good at defeating enemies with one move. It is said that more than 20 people cannot get close to him."
"In fact, according to the principle of true security, there are at least three bodyguard teams with the lowest scale. Because the main perspective of the human eye is only 120 degrees, three people can complete the 360-degree surrounding vigilance."
"A super rich man of Jack Ma's level should have at least five normal bodyguard team configurations. At the same time, a professional safety assessment team is required to regularly evaluate their safety status."
"For example, have there been a dispute over commercial cooperation in the near future? Has anyone threatened it? And have there been unusual security changes in the city he lives in recently?"
Speaking of professionalism, Mr. Hu talked endlessly: "There are gangsters like the kidnapping of Li Chaoren's son again. If there is information that may appear in the city where Jack Ma is located, or may be at a certain stop in Jack Ma's future itinerary, then security must be strengthened."
"The bodyguard who cannot be beaten will definitely fail, but the bodyguard who can be beaten alone will not work. Bodyguards need a lot of more complex technologies, such as first aid and special driving techniques."
"When Li Zeju was stopped by Zhang Ziqiang's gang, he threatened to get off the car and was kidnapped. The vehicle was most likely to have various situations during driving. Without excellent driving skills, it would be difficult to protect the employer's safety."
"Training also includes gun shooting and explosive disposal. In 2004, billionaire Ge Junming was killed by a homemade bomb of a criminal in his office."
"So professional bodyguards must conduct necessary explosive inspections every time they drive and enter the office. Even the employer's residence must conduct irregular sampling."
"To sum up, a truly good bodyguard not only requires professional training, but also requires rich experience and sensitive safety intuition. Only strong national departments and professional bodyguard schools can train talents in this area."
Johnson nodded secretly, saying that it was like a mountain, and it was not easy to do anything well. Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit solemn, Butler Hu joked: "For example, Bill Gates' security team is one of the highest commercial secrets in the entire security industry. There is nothing to know about how many bodyguards there are and who are close to the security personnel."
"The security strategy he pursues is the so-called invisible security. In other words, except for drivers and secretaries, the bodyguards must keep a low profile, wear different clothes according to the occasion, and be invisible around the employer. Unless there is a situation that endangers the employer, it will not appear casually."
"After the embarrassment of being thrown away by someone, they directly invested in the world's largest security company, the UK G4S. The company not only has a global security network, but also a security service provider for many large-scale events such as the Olympics."
"As one of the important shareholders of the company, his security services are of course from this top company. The rich man not only chooses people, but also chooses companies, and even buys the company directly. Being rich is willful!"
"There is also the Lee Chaoren from Hong Kong Island. His friend was the first police chief. Before the 1960s, he worked in the Police Political Department. In fact, he was a secret service department and directly affiliated with the MI5."
"After retreating, a company that provides high-end bodyguard services was formed. All its members came from the police's political protection team, which is the professional bodyguard team commonly known as G4 agents."
"The retired Gurkha soldiers were also hired at a high price. Gurkhas are a mountainous nation near the Himalayas. They are hardworking and brave, and have a strong body. Even though Britain later evacuated the area, it still recruited thousands of young people from the local area to join the British army every year, namely the famous Gurkha mercenaries."
"A team composed of retired G4 and Gurkha mercenaries became Li Chaoren's security team. The last time I came to the State Guesthouse was four personal guards, composed of Gurkha mercenaries."
"They are very loyal, and more importantly, they do not understand Cantonese and Chaozhou dialects, so it is difficult to know trade secrets from daily conversations and phone calls."
"The richest man, Wang Jianlin, has served as a soldier. He is surrounded by retired special forces, with a team of twenty-five people. He is surrounded by people everywhere and has a great pomp."
Mr. Hu thought to himself and concluded: "It mainly depends on your needs and connections. If you just travel simply, three or five people are more than enough. Take the capital for example, there are fifty billionaires for every 100,000 people, and the country is prosperous and the people are safe, so..."
Johnson nodded. He had no enemies, so the reason why he found a bodyguard was to be at ease. Anyway, he wanted to find a driver, so he might as well find it all at once to save trouble.
"If you say it's recommended..." Mr. Hu pondered for a moment and said sincerely: "I personally recommend Dway International Group, headquartered at No. 179 Longtang Road, and is composed of experienced security elites."
"There are both leading cadres who have worked in public security organs and senior police officers who have participated in international peacekeeping missions. Most of them have directly commanded the core security work of the 2008 Olympics. They serve British and French security experts who work for many internationally renowned security companies."
"Especially, the establishment of overseas headquarters in Hong Kong Island, currently has offices in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, and Australia, and overseas bases in Phuket."
"The partners are all top international security companies, with execution capabilities covering more than 60 countries and regions around the world. If you like to travel abroad, you can feel at ease."
Johnson wrote it carefully. He originally just chatted casually, but after listening to Butler Hu's introduction, he was very moved. He should not have the intention to harm others, and he should be careful. He is alone, so he is more at ease with his side.
Since I knew the address, I would go and check it out tomorrow. The next morning I went out and arrived at No. 179, Longtang Road. The company actually asked the front desk to hire a bodyguard. I was taken to the VIP room and started filling out the form.
"Mr. Zhuang, this is a data form, please fill in it truthfully. We will recommend the right candidate according to your specific needs."
