In Hong Kong, we build a global business empire

After hanging up the phone, Lin Haoran lost all desire to sleep.

Unexpectedly, just over two hours ago, a fierce gun battle had already occurred among his men.

However, the news Li Weiguo called was good news.

The mission went very smoothly, and the top leaders of the Brotherhood were wiped out, which could be considered as revenge for Qingzhou Yingni.

In addition, the main force this time was the May Fourth Gang, so there were no casualties on Lin Haoran's side.

According to Li Weiguo, more than a dozen members of the May Fourth Gang died and dozens were shot and wounded, but these had nothing to do with him, Lin Haoran.

This time, except for five high-ranking members of the Brotherhood who were directly killed by sniper rifles, the remaining middle and high-level members were all killed by the May Fourth Gang. As for the ordinary members, some were killed and some surrendered. It is said that hundreds of people died. It was extremely tragic.

In addition, Mr. Xiao, the leader of the Brotherhood, has promised Li Weiguo that after taking over the Brotherhood's territory, he will give all the cash proceeds to them.

At the same time, if you have any problems in the Philippines in the future, you can always contact them and they will do their best to help you, without asking for anything in return, only friendship!

Lin Haoran had never asked for these before.

Obviously, the sniper shot the heads of several big leaders of the Brotherhood, including the leader, which really scared Mr. Xiao.

The strength of Global Security Consulting Company was so great that even he, the leader of the community, was afraid of it.

In other words, if Mr. Xiao provokes Lin Haoran, he may be shot in the head at any time.

The reason why the Brotherhood was defeated so easily this time was that the big bosses were directly defeated, leaving the group leaderless. The casualties of the May Fourth Gang were actually considered small.

The next morning, Lin Haoran received another call.

But this time it was Cui Zilong who called.

"Boss, the May Fourth Gang counted the profits and found that they earned more than 8 million US dollars in cash alone. Mr. Xiao said he would give us this money. Should we take it or not?" Cui Zilong asked.

"Take it, why not? Take out one million US dollars from the money and distribute it to the brothers as a reward for their practical training. The rest will be put into the company account and used for the company's development!" Lin Haoran answered directly.

They also made contributions this time, and their role was crucial, so naturally they will have a share of the benefits!
As for whether the other party really only got more than 8 million US dollars, Lin Haoran didn't care. After all, these had not been discussed in the first place. They were willing to take the initiative to offer the money to Lin Haoran, which showed that Mr. Xiao was a decent person.

After all, they were able to annex the Brotherhood, and Li Weiguo and his gang played a very important role.

If it were just this group of people, even if they knew that these people were gathering in this manor, they would not be able to kill all the leaders of the Brotherhood at once.

Without killing these leaders, they did not dare to be too radical.

They still understand the principle of hurting the enemy by a thousand while hurting yourself by eight hundred.

Therefore, the role of these five snipers is actually the greatest.

"Also, Boss, I want to make a suggestion. In the Philippines, almost no one cares about gun ownership, so it's the best place to set up a training base. Moreover, it's so chaotic here, and if we want to have actual combat, we can do actual combat training at any time. So I think it's most appropriate to put the headquarters of the training base here.

In addition, due to the poor social security here, the demand for security is also greater than in Hong Kong. Many people with a little money hope to hire bodyguards for self-defense. In this way, we will also have more sustainable development benefits.

Moreover, it is easy for us to expand the team here and recruit more suitable players. Although we are in Saigon and no one is in charge because of its remoteness, some training programs are not allowed to be seen in public after all. Cui Zilong put forward his own opinion.

In Hong Kong, ordinary people have no worries about their safety, so only the truly wealthy worry about being kidnapped and hire bodyguards.

But in Manila, it’s not necessarily the case. Even ordinary people can be in danger if they are unlucky, especially in the 1970s and 1980s.

During these few days here, Cui Zilong witnessed the chaos in social security.

Especially since such a big thing happened last night, the police didn't care at all.

For them, gang fights are nothing to be surprised about and they have long been accustomed to them.

But Cui Zilong had never seen such a situation before.

In Hong Kong, the most gangsters do in fighting is using knives to chop people, and gun fights are rare occurrences that ordinary people rarely encounter.

Such an environment is simply a paradise for the Global Safety Consulting Company.

As long as they set up a security company here properly, they can easily obtain a gun license, and then it will be legal for them to carry guns.

Even if it is illegal, the police generally won't do much about it.

There are too many to manage.

In this way, they can conduct shooting training openly.

Whenever you want actual combat, you can be a mercenary and take a paid mission.

As for Hong Kong, no one dared to use force against Lin Haoran's industries.

Lin Haoran thought about it and agreed to Cui Zilong's idea.

"I will stay here to set up the branch company first. Mr. Li Weiguo will also select suitable instructors during this period. We will go back then. We will stay in Manila for the time being until these things are settled. I will arrange the work at Oriental Press Company and leave the work matters to the deputy general manager for the time being!" Cui Zilong continued.

The Brotherhood has been destroyed, and the May Fourth Gang is currently treating them with awe, so Cui Zilong is no longer worried about his life in the Philippines and no longer has the fear he had before.

"Okay, just take care of these." Lin Haoran had no objection.

Afterwards, Lin Haoran also called Li Weiguo and asked him to stay in Manila temporarily to take care of the training base matters.

There is no problem at all in placing the training base in Manila instead of in Hong Kong.

Naturally, this training base in Hong Kong will not be abandoned and will continue to recruit people. A security company with two hundred people is not enough.

In fact, setting up a training base in the Philippines is just the beginning, and they will open more and more training bases in the future.

G4S, the world's largest security company, has hundreds of thousands of security personnel, ranging from security guards for properties, high-end stores and banks to celebrity bodyguards, cash and jewelry escorts and alarm systems.

Global Security Consultants still has a long way to go if it wants to catch up with G4S.

The goal may not necessarily be achieved, but as long as it continues to grow and develop, its scale will become closer to security companies like G4S.

After hanging up the phone, Lin Haoran immediately shared the good news with Burton.

Wanqing Group can now expand in the Philippines without any worries. As for the local tyrants?
With the deterrent power of the Universal Security Company and the face of the May Fourth Gang, even if something happens, it can be handled quickly.

Not only the Wan Qing Group, but even the China Gas Company, Oriental Press Company and Hong Kong Electric Group can expand their markets to the Philippines next.

Now that we have a backer over there, it would be a waste of resources if we don't develop there and occupy the market there.

Hong Kong is, after all, just a small market.

Several of his companies, such as Hong Kong Electric Company, China Gas Company and Oriental News Company, have actually reached a bottleneck in their main business. The best way to break through this bottleneck is to expand outward.

The Philippines has a large Chinese population. Although the social security is a bit chaotic, the market is not small. If they can capture a part of the market there, it will be enough for them to continue to expand their scale.

For example, since becoming the third largest cement supplier in Luzon Island, the monthly revenue of Qingdao Cement Company in the Philippines has already exceeded that of the Hong Kong domestic market.

Qingzhou Cement Company's monthly profit exceeds 10 million Hong Kong dollars, and the Philippine market has made an indelible contribution to this.

This is the advantage of having more people.

The more people there are, the greater the market demand.

Hong Kong's total population market of 5 million is ultimately too small.

The population of the Philippines is ten times that of Hong Kong!
Moreover, since the 1950s, relying on the help of the United States, the Philippines' economy has developed very rapidly. Its per capita GDP was even second only to Japan in Asia at one point. The economy here was actually not bad during this period.

After the matter in the Philippines was dealt with, Lin Haoran no longer focused his attention there.

In the blink of an eye, two days passed and it was May 5th.

In the afternoon, Lin Haoran unexpectedly received a call from Su Zhixue.

"Boss, there are anomalies in the stock trading of Kowloon Motor Bus. The data shows that someone must be eyeing this stock!" Su Zhixue said on the phone.

When Lin Haoran arrived at Huanyu Investment Company in Wanqing Building, Su Zhixue handed a piece of data to Lin Haoran.

This is a comparison of Kowloon Motor Bus stock trading volume data for the past month.

The list shows the proportion of Huanyu Investment Company's total trading volume each day, with detailed data.

Two weeks ago, the daily absorption rate of Huanyu Investment Company began to decline slowly.

In the past, at least 70% of Kowloon Motor Bus's total daily trading volume was absorbed by Universal Investment Company. However, this has dropped to less than 60% since two weeks ago.

In fact, today it has dropped to only 40%.

It is obvious that someone, like Lin Haoran, has set his sights on Kowloon Motor Bus.

"Boss, for the past two weeks, I thought that the market trading volume of Kowloon Motor Bus was larger, and the proportion we absorbed decreased. This was normal market behavior in the stock market, and more investors were interested in this stock. But today it dropped so much at once, and I knew there must be a problem. There must be other consortiums eyeing Kowloon Motor Bus." Su Zhixue said seriously.

Lin Haoran nodded and looked at the data report. He was wondering who was targeting Kowloon Motor Bus.

If the Hong Kong Electric Group was not a shareholder of the Hong Kong Land Development, Lin Haoran might have suspected that the Hong Kong Land Development was behind the incident.

But now, every move of the Jardine Matheson Group cannot escape Lin Haoran's eyes, because he is now an important board member of the Jardine Matheson Group. Basically, as a member of the board of directors, he has the right to know about some major decisions there.

This is also one of the benefits of HK Electric Group becoming a shareholder of Hong Kong Land Development.

Since it’s not the Jardine Matheson Group, then who could it be?

Could it be that Guo Desheng took action?

As Lin Haoran, who once worked in Pengcheng, knew, Kowloon Motor Bus in later generations was a member of the Sun Hung Kai Group under Guo Desheng.

However, he didn't know when Guo Desheng started to acquire Kowloon Motor Bus.

Universal Investment Company currently has three main targets, namely Hongkong Land Group, Jardine Matheson and Kowloon Motor Bus.

Therefore, although the strength of Huanyu Investment Company has increased, because the traders have also been dispersed, if someone sets their sights on Kowloon Motor Bus, it is normal for them to only absorb 40% of the trading volume.

If the other party wants to hide it, it will not be easy for Lin Haoran to find out.

I wonder if I can get some useful information from the Oriental Newspaper Company?

However, since he has this indirect information from Guo Desheng, perhaps he can find out some useful information.

"How many shares of Kowloon Motor Bus do we own?" Lin Haoran asked.

"As of today, we already hold 23.63% of the total shares of Kowloon Motor Bus." Su Zhixue reported, and also handed today's report card to Lin Haoran.

Lin Haoran nodded and said, "No matter who is targeting Kowloon Bus, you just need to continue to operate as usual. We currently control so many shares and already have a leading advantage!"

"Okay, boss, I got it!" Su Zhixue said respectfully.

After leaving Su Zhixue's office, Lin Haoran came to the office in his own private reception room and called Cui Zilong who was far away in the Philippines.

Cui Zilong is the chief executive of the intelligence agency of Oriental Press Company. It would be more reliable to contact him than the current deputy general manager of Oriental Press Company.

These days, Lin Haoran knew that Cui Zilong was busy opening the Huanyu Security branch and the Oriental Press branch in the Philippines.

"Boss, do you have any instructions for me?" Cui Zilong asked on the phone.

"How is the situation over there going?" Lin Haoran did not directly state his purpose, but first asked about the situation in the Philippines.

"Boss, the May Fourth Gang has successfully transferred 856 million US dollars into the company account, of which one million US dollars has been allocated to Li Weiguo and company security personnel. In addition, we have registered a security consulting company in Manila.
A piece of land of about 23 square meters was purchased on the seashore in the southwest suburbs of Manila, and plans to set up the headquarters of the Philippine branch of Global Security Consultants and the future training base here.

As the construction will take some time, we have temporarily rented a training ground and 200 security personnel have been properly accommodated. ” Cui Zilong answered in detail.

"I called you this time because I have another task for you to complete..." Lin Haoran then briefly introduced the situation of Kowloon Motor Bus to Cui Zilong.

"Investigate the suspicious object that is secretly acquiring Kowloon Motor Bus? Although this task is somewhat difficult, since the boss has a suspicious target, the investigation should be relatively easy. At least we can find out whether Sun Hung Kai is carrying out this acquisition. Boss, please give me some time, I will try." Cui Zilong replied after a little thought.

"Okay, thank you for your hard work!" (End of this chapter)
