The next day.
Around 10 a.m.
Secretary Li's secretary, Zhou Xiaoxia, arrived at Wujiang Company with seven bodyguards.
Six men and one woman.
Upon hearing the news, Zhao Ye immediately went out to greet them.
Um? ? ?
Zhao Ye immediately noticed a tall, slender female guard in military uniform, looking dashing and heroic. He was stunned for a moment, and his heart pounded in his chest.
Secretary Li's secretary, Zhou Xiaoxia, came over and greeted Zhao Ye.
"Mr. Zhao, the bodyguards you requested have all been brought. Here are their personal files. Just let me know which ones you'd like to work with, and I'll arrange their personnel transfers for you."
"Okay, thank you, Secretary Zhou!" Upon hearing this, Zhao Ye immediately snapped out of his daze and took the documents handed to him.
"By the way, Mr. Zhao, let me give you a brief introduction to them," Zhou Xiaoxia said.
"Okay." Zhao Ye nodded, then couldn't help but glance a few more times at the dashing female guard. Although she was wearing a military uniform, her graceful figure was undeniable—a full 36D! Moreover, she was stunningly beautiful and exuded a commanding presence; in Zhao Ye's eyes, she was far superior to female celebrities.
However, she seems to have a rather aloof demeanor.
An ice queen/beauty?
Just as Zhao Ye was lost in thought, Secretary Zhou began to introduce them one by one.
"This man is Wang Shuang, 26 years old, the top sniper in the XXX department of the Capital Military Region. He is also skilled in military combat techniques, winning first place in a combat competition in the Capital Military Region. Later, he served as a bodyguard for XX leader in Zhongbeihai for three years..."
"This is Wu Feihu, twenty-four years old, also from the Capital Military Region. He is not only an outstanding marksman but also proficient in Xingyi Quan (a style of Chinese martial arts). He used to be a bodyguard for xxx..."
"This is Huo Ziping..."
"This is Shen Binhong..."
"This is Sheng Feihang..."
"This is Hou Juncai..."
Six people were introduced in a row.
Secretary Zhou paused for a moment, then smiled and began to introduce the last female guard.
"This is Li Aoyun, Secretary Li's niece. When Secretary Li learned that you were hiring bodyguards, he decided to have his niece train with you."
Upon hearing this, Zhao Ye was immediately taken aback.
This dashing female bodyguard is actually Secretary Li's niece!
Why would Secretary Li appoint his niece as his bodyguard?
At this point, Zhou Xiaoxia continued, "Don't let her young age fool you; she's only 21, just like you. She's already achieved excellent results in individual combat tactics, hand-to-hand combat, light weapons disassembly and assembly, battlefield first aid, and live-fire shooting. She's quite skilled and more than qualified to be a bodyguard. Moreover, she's fluent in both English and Japanese, and has even taught herself computer science and international economics and trade!"
After hearing the introduction, the phrase "a favored daughter of heaven" immediately popped into Zhao Ye's mind!
This is the kind of person that a large family can cultivate; they are indeed extraordinary.
"Hello, I've just finished listening to Secretary Zhou's introduction. I think each of you is exceptionally talented, and it would be an honor for you to become my bodyguards. I hope all of you will stay. Rest assured, you will receive excellent compensation and benefits. What do you think? Do you agree?"
"Agreed!!" the seven responded in unison.
Actually, if they hadn't agreed, they wouldn't have come today.
Zhao Ye's face lit up with joy, and he said sincerely, "Thank you all. From now on, I entrust my personal safety to your protection!"
Wang Shuang replied solemnly, "Don't worry, Boss Zhao, with us here, we will do everything in our power to protect you, even at the cost of our own lives!!!"
Wang Shuang was a rising star in the military with a bright future, but his superiors told him about Zhao Ye's importance and asked him to be by Zhao Ye's side to protect his safety.
At this moment, Wang Shuang couldn't help but think of what his leader had said to him before leaving.
"Based on the information we have gathered, Zhao Ye is an outstanding scientist; perhaps he is our country's next 'Qian Xuesen'!!!"
"So you must protect his safety, even if it means sacrificing yourself?"
He paused for a moment.
The leader's face was serious as he asked in a deep voice, "Wang Shuang, can you do it?"
"Reporting to the leader, I guarantee the mission will be completed!!!" Wang Shuang stood up straight and solemnly saluted the leader. As a soldier, he deeply understood the importance of Academician Qian Xuesen. It was because of scientists like them that Western countries dared not arbitrarily bully and trample on China.
Back to the present, Wang Shuang also gave Zhao Ye a military salute and solemnly made a promise.
Zhao Ye sensed the sincerity in the other person's words and couldn't help but feel moved.
The other six people then repeated the same statement.
Zhao Ye said "thank you".
Then he turned to Zhou Xiaoxia and said, "Secretary Zhou, please arrange their personnel transfer as soon as possible. Also, I would like to ask you for a favor: please help them resolve their Hong Kong travel permits and Japanese visas as soon as possible. My next trip is to Hong Kong and Japan."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Xiaoxia immediately nodded and smiled, "Okay, no problem!"
"Then I'll have to trouble Secretary Zhou!"
"Haha, Mr. Zhao, you don't need to be so polite. Alright, Secretary Li has something to attend to, so I have to go there and won't bother you any longer. I'll arrange for someone to handle the matter you asked me to do. Wang Shuang, Li Aoyun, and the others will stay here with you; they're officially on duty now. You can decide how to arrange things for them. I'll be going now."
"Okay, Secretary Zhou, then I'll take you there!"
A few minutes later, after seeing Secretary Zhou off, Zhao Ye called Wang Shuang, Li Aoyun, and others to his office to learn more about their situation.
Zhao Ye discovered that, apart from Li Aojun, a local from the capital, the others were all from other provinces, and most of them had previously lived in the military area.
First, I have to arrange dormitories for them, and then I also need to provide them with transportation.
If you're going to do it, you should do it well.
Thinking of this, he summoned his secretary, Liu Yinyin, and instructed her to send someone to buy a courtyard house near his home for Wang Shuang and the others to live in. He also instructed her to transfer two Santanas from the company to Wang Shuang and the others so that they could accompany him for protection.
Zhao Ye has not yet bought a car in his own name and has been using the company car.
Currently, all of Wujiang Company's vehicles are Santana models.
This car could be considered a domestically produced car, but it's actually a joint venture brand. The main reason Wujiang Company bought it was because it didn't cost them valuable foreign exchange.
Don't let the fact that this car is relatively low-end fool you; back then in China, it was the vehicle of choice for the wealthy and officials, and it was quite expensive.
To put it simply, one Santana in the 1980s was equivalent to two Rolls-Royce Phantoms or 15 top-of-the-line BMW X7s today. This was undoubtedly an astronomical figure for ordinary people earning only a few dozen yuan a month.
Even so, without certain connections, it's not guaranteed that you can buy this kind of car.
