Chapter 421 MVP Flattery Against the Heavenly Gang
In terms of scale, this security company ranks among the top three in the province.
There is also a lot of specific information on the Internet, such as revenue, profits, and partner companies. However, this information is of varying quality and has a lag. It is still necessary to have a law firm conduct due diligence and issue an investigation report to be accurate.
But according to Tongzi's character, even if it is not a benign asset, it will not be a loss-making company.
These two companies, representing law and security respectively, not only provide Shen Yuan with two lines of defense, but also mean that he can mobilize more and more resources.
Shen Yuan's eyes sparkled with joy, and he couldn't help but exclaim, "Tongzi is awesome!"
He walked around the room twice to calm down for a while before returning to bed.
Although there are more and more industries, we still have to sleep when we need to.
After a 40-minute nap, Shen Yuan felt refreshed and energetic. He changed into sportswear and sneakers, went to the first floor, and said to Ji Ya who was doing a spreadsheet, "Want to work out together?"
Ji Ya was wearing glasses and working on a laptop. She turned her head in confusion and then her cheeks flushed: "Boss, I'm not available today."
Shen Yuan smiled: "What are you talking about, I'm talking about serious fitness."
Ji Ya's face turned even redder, and she twisted her hips under her skirt and said, "It's not convenient for me to exercise properly."
Shen Yuan slapped his head and said, "Look at my brain, I've forgotten everything. Then I'll practice it myself!"
If Ji Ya really asked him to run with the exercise equipment, there would be blood splattering everywhere.
Just as Shen Yuan was about to leave, Ji Ya hurriedly stopped him: "Boss, Fu Yingzi reported that the person in charge of Silver Shield Security and the director of Chenlang's law firm want to make an appointment to meet. When would you like to meet?"
"No plans for today, right?"
"No, this afternoon and evening are your private time."
"Then arrange it after I work out." Shen Yuan said.
"OK."
Ji Ya nodded, then opened a form on the computer: "But I must remind you that you haven't seen Sister Su Xuewei for a while. Do you think you can take some time to see her today?"
The chief steward of the Jingshifang played her role again. When Shen Yuan heard the name Su Xuewei for the first time, he was in a trance.
It seemed like he had ignored her for a while.
Since the villa was renovated, Shen Yuan has hardly contacted her.
She is not the type of NPC who would please Shen Yuan, and her personality is rather reserved and shy.
Other NPCs would occasionally send videos and selfies to Shen Yuan from a distance, or at least send messages to maintain the relationship.
As for Su Xuewei, this girl posts a message every week without fail.
Because there were so many messages, every message she sent was easily covered by others, and sometimes Shen Yuan didn't even notice her message.
And the messages she sent were more like reports, like the one she sent last week:
"Chen Yuan, good morning. The weather is nice today. I took my mother and brother for a walk in the neighborhood. The sun is shining and the breeze is not too dry. My brother likes it here, and so does my mother, but not many people come to chat with her. Fortunately, I bought my mother a mobile phone, so when she is bored, she can chat with relatives and Aunt Zhang from the tube building."
For example, last week:
"Chen Yuan, good evening. I just got off work. I had a complicated design project today, so I worked overtime at the company until after 9 o'clock."
Her writing is very simple and she never expresses longing. After turning a few pages, Shen Yuan felt inexplicably distressed.
After thinking for a while, Shen Yuan said: “After meeting the director of the law firm and the head of the security company today, go meet her.”
"OK."
Hearing that Shen Yuan was going to Amelia Su, Ji Ya felt a small sense of accomplishment.
In the memo form, she restored Su Xuewei, who was marked in red, to normal, and then noted today's date in the meeting time.
Well, no red marks for now.
Ji Ya looked at the girls who all had normal labels, and a look of satisfaction appeared on her face.
She felt a bit like the class teacher. The last poor student in the class finally passed the exam and there was no one holding him back anymore.
“Is there a special record form?”
Suddenly, Shen Yuan's voice came from behind. Ji Ya was startled and covered her chest and said, "Boss, you scared me to death."
"I learned this from you. Sometimes you like to walk up behind me silently. But this form of yours must be kept secret. No one can see it except you and me."
Ji Ya nodded shyly: "Okay, boss, I have a password on my computer, and the forms and memos are also locked."
"That's fine. But..."
Shen Yuan bowed slightly, his eyes focused on the form: "But why is your name not on this form?"
“I won’t join in.”
Ji Ya suddenly felt a little guilty.
"Add it in. Add in all the times I've visited you and see where you rank."
Shen Yuan looked at the people who ranked first this month, and they were Qiao Lei, Liu Menglu, and Lin Yuchang. Even the class beauty didn't make it into the top three.
Come to think of it, I haven’t visited the class beauty for a long time. I wonder how her flower shop is doing.
"Boss, if you rank me, I should be in the top five."
"That shouldn't be the case. Hmm? It seems to be the case."
At first, Shen Yuan thought that Ji Ya could only be in the last place, but after thinking about it carefully, Ji Ya not only teamed up with Liu Menglu, but also teamed up with Qiao Lei and Long Jinghan, including joining the mahjong game with five black players.
Not to mention that when I sleep alone at home, I would ask her to warm my bed from time to time.
Thinking of this, Shen Yuan patted her shoulder: "How about it, are you happy working for me? It's really a bargain for you."
Ji Ya blushed and said nothing. She waited until Shen Yuan left before slowly opening the hidden column.
What Shen Yuan didn't know was that the hidden column actually contained the name "Ji Ya".
Once the hiding was lifted, "Ji Ya"'s name rose directly to the first place.
The first place label is gold, which she did on purpose, a bit like the MVP logo.
"I'm sorry, boss. If I put myself in this situation, maybe you'll limit the number of times you visit me."
Ji Ya muttered to herself.
Shen Yuan went down to the fitness area on the underground first floor, first warmed up his lower body briefly, then jogged for 30 minutes, used barbells and dumbbells for 15 minutes, and then used high-intensity equipment for another 15 minutes, and finally finished the fitness session in a sweat.
Back on the first floor, Ji Ya came over and said, "Boss, the director of Chenlang Law Firm and two senior partners have arrived."
Shen Yuan wiped his face with a towel and said, "Okay, let him wait in the reception area. I'll take a shower and change clothes."
"OK."
Half an hour later, Shen Yuan changed into casual clothes and met three lawyers in suits in the reception room.
Seeing Shen Yuan's figure, the three stood up in unison: "Mr. Shen, good afternoon, sorry to bother you."
"fine."
Shen Yuan waved his hand, and then the man in the middle, about 50 years old, stepped forward and said, "Hello, Mr. Shen, I am the director of Chenlang's law firm, my name is Mao Mingcheng."
"Hello Maolu."
"Hello, Mr. Shen. I'm Zhu Sixing, a senior partner at Chenlang Law Firm. I was responsible for the due diligence and investigation of the Sinan Club and the golf course last time."
"Hello, Zhu Lu."
"Hello Mr. Shen, I am..."
The three of them politely introduced themselves to Shen Yuan, nodding slightly as they spoke.
He owns 23% of the law firm's shares, which makes him the second largest shareholder and one of their bosses, so all three of them attach great importance to him.
"Everyone, please sit down."
Shen Yuan gestured with his hand.
After sitting down, they exchanged some pleasantries, and then Mao Mingcheng got down to business, pulling out several documents from his briefcase: "Mr. Shen, here are the equity transfer agreement, equity certification documents, and company charter."
"Also, here are the law firm's financial reports and audit reports for the past three years."
After signing some documents and going through the documents that needed to be read in detail, this meant that 23% of the law firm's shares officially belonged to Shen Yuan.
"Mr. Shen, the law firm will hold a shareholders' meeting next week. It will be a welcome party for you by the directors and shareholders, and the directors will also be re-elected."
"Yeah, okay."
Shen Yuan had no intention of working in the legal profession, nor did he intend to interfere in the management of the law firm. The election of directors at the shareholders' meeting was just a formality, and the position of director was just a nominal one.
After finishing the business, the four of them started to connect with each other privately, added each other on WeChat, and chatted.
It was mainly the two partner lawyers who were flattering. Mao Mingcheng was more steady. As the current director of the law firm, he also enjoyed equity incentives and was considered a small shareholder to some extent. He would occasionally follow suit and flatter.
"Mao Lu, I have something I want to ask you." Shen Yuan said.
"Mr. Shen, please tell me."
Shen Yuan told him about Lin Yuchang and Zeng Xianyong, focusing on Zeng Xianyong's harassment of Lin Yuchang's parents. Of course, he selectively mentioned his own relationship with Lin Yuchang.
After listening, Mao Mingcheng said slowly: "Mr. Shen, it is difficult to determine whether this kind of thing constitutes harassment and provoking trouble. It requires a specific analysis of the specific situation. It is best to understand it with the person involved. Mr. Shen, is this Ms. Lin your friend?"
Shen Yuan nodded: "Of course, we are very good friends."
"If you think highly of me, Mr. Shen, why not let me handle this matter?" Mao Mingcheng said seriously.
Shen Yuan felt that the director of the law firm was indeed something. He clearly wanted him to help, but he took the initiative to "fight" for this matter before he said anything.
"If Mao Lu is willing to help, that would be great. I'll send you the contact information of my friend Ms. Lin on WeChat."
“Okay, Mr. Shen.”
It was not known whether it was intentional or unintentional, but Mao Mingcheng called "Director" instead of "President", even though Shen Yuan had not yet become a director of Chenlang Law Firm.
The two senior partner lawyers called him an expert. It seems that he still has a lot to learn. This is the real flattery in a subtle way.
In comparison, the praise I just gave Mr. Shen for his appearance and temperament, as well as the decoration of his villa, was simply too low!
After chatting for a while, the three lawyers declined Shen Yuan's invitation to dinner. Before leaving, Mao Mingcheng shook Shen Yuan's hand and said, "Mr. Shen, we will complete the share transfer procedures and due diligence you instructed us to do regarding Silver Shield Security as soon as possible."
"Well, thank you for your hard work, Mao Lu, and all my colleagues."
“It should be.”
The three of them said goodbye with smiles on their faces, then got on the Alphard at the door. After the driver started the car, Zhu Sixing, who was sitting in the front seat, turned around and said, "Director Mao, I've learned a lot again this time. We still have a lot to learn from you."
Mao Mingcheng smiled and said, "Why do you want to learn from me? I'm 52 years old this year and will retire in a few years. You are about the same age as Mr. Shen, so you should learn more from his way of dealing with people and things."
Zhu Sixing's mouth twitched, thinking to himself, Mr. Shen is not in the car, why are you still flattering him?
The old man is really cautious when speaking!
Besides, can you learn what Mr. Shen has? To have such wealth and property at this age, how powerful must his resources and background be?
What’s more, this old guy said he wanted to retire. He was just promoted to director of the law firm last year. How can you say he’s retiring?
This old guy is really good at pretending!
After complaining a few words in his mind, he still smiled and nodded: "I have to learn everything. I have to learn everything. But I don't have the chance to be with Mr. Shen usually. I spend more time with Director Mao, so I learn more from Director Mao."
After saying this, Zhu Sixing still felt that his flattery was rather stiff. How could he be as smooth as this old thief's?
Mao Mingcheng just smiled and said nothing. There are many ways to flatter someone.
Of course, even if Zhu Sixing’s flattery skills are similar to his, it would be a different feeling when he flatters Mr. Shen.
Because the location is different.
Is it more satisfying to have a dung collector flatter you or to have an entrepreneur flatter you?
The answer is obvious.
Not long after the lawyers left, Ji Ya walked in: "Boss, Mr. Su from Silver Shield Security has arrived."
"Well, let him come in in 5 minutes."
Shen Yuan glanced at the time and it was already past 4 o'clock, so he called Amelia Su.
This girl is a workaholic. If he tells her just before leaving, she might still be working overtime at the company.
The phone rang for about 40 seconds before it was connected. A gentle and cautious voice came from the other end: "Hello."
"Why are you answering the phone now?" Shen Yuan asked unhappily.
"I was just working on a design draft and wasn't paying attention to my phone." Su Xuewei's voice became softer.
I don’t know why, every time Amelia Su is like this, Shen Yuan wants to bully her, “Is work more important or am I more important?”
After a moment of silence, the other end stammered, "All, all are important."
"You're lying! You work every day, but you only send me one message a week! Are you sure they're equally important?" Shen Yuan said righteously.
"I thought you were busy"
"You won't contact me just because I'm busy? Don't you miss me?" Shen Yuan asked back.
“.”
Su Xuewei was speechless. She was stunned for a long time before she realized something was wrong. It was obviously you who didn't reply to my message or ask me out, so why did it become my fault?
"Here's what, I'll give you a chance to redeem yourself. Make me dinner tonight and I'll forgive you."
Shen Yuan said seriously: "Also, no overtime today, do you hear me!"
"knew"
After hanging up the phone, Su Xuewei thought about it with her little head. Why was she given a chance to save the situation? Was it really my fault?
However, knowing that Shen Yuan was coming home, after thinking about it, a smile that had not been seen for a long time appeared on the corner of his mouth.
I looked at the time. It was already past 4 o'clock, and there was still more than an hour before I got off work. I had to buy more vegetables this time.
At this time, Qingzhu Lake Villa.
A tall, middle-aged man walked in and extended his hands politely: "Good afternoon, Mr. Shen, my name is Su Guodong, and I am the general manager of Silver Shield Security."
"Hello, please sit down."
Shen Yuan gestured with his hand.
After some pleasantries, Shen Yuan learned that Su Guodong was a retired military officer. He had been working at Silver Shield since he was released in 2006. He started as the deputy director of the security service department and worked his way up to his current position as general manager.
Then, Su Guodong began to proactively report on the company's operating conditions, and also brought financial reports and audit reports for the past three years.
After reading the report and having a brief conversation with Su Guodong, Shen Yuan did not give any instructions casually. No matter which industry it is, it is most taboo for laymen to guide experts, and he still has some procedures to complete.
"Lao Su, which department of the company does the bodyguard belong to?" Shen Yuan asked.
"Civil Defense Department. Currently, the company has over 30 bodyguards on duty. Some are former special forces soldiers, some are former police officers, and some are former martial arts and free-sport athletes."
At this point, Su Guodong seemed to realize something: "Boss Shen, I haven't noticed any security forces around you since I entered the door. Do you need me to arrange bodyguards for you?"
Shen Yuan said frankly: "I have had this idea recently. But my requirements for bodyguards are a bit high."
Su Guodong sat up straight, and his eyes began to shine.
He is not afraid of changing his boss, but he is afraid that his boss does not need him.
The documents and work reports he just brought in are just a reflection of his attitude. Whether the boss recognizes his attitude is another matter. Even if he does, will he definitely continue to employ him?
But if the boss needs it, it’s completely different.
"Boss Shen, I've been in this business for over a decade, and I was even a director of the Civil Defense Department for five years. The quality of our bodyguards is definitely top-notch, but I can't guarantee they'll meet your requirements."
"But I can guarantee that even if the company can't find a bodyguard that meets your requirements, I can find one for you from other companies or other places."
"good."
Shen Yuan was very satisfied with Su Guodong's attitude. After thinking for a while, he said, "In addition to being able to fight and defend myself, I also need someone who can speak foreign languages and drive, preferably with an international driver's license, because I'm considering traveling abroad recently. Secondly, it would be best if he can take care of people."
"Bodyguards generally can drive and are attentive and caring, preferably female. As for those who can speak foreign languages, I'll need to go back to the company and check their resumes."
Su Guodong knew what was going on and immediately made finding a bodyguard for the new boss a priority.
Even if the company doesn't have anyone who meets the requirements, he will dig deep to find one for the boss!
