Chapter 179: Chapter 179 HD Security Future



"At present, security firms worldwide mainly engage in bank and corporate security. I envision expansive opportunities for these entities."

"From my perspective, their activities can be categorized. Firstly, their core operation entails safeguarding banks, armored vehicles, vaults, and branches, besides providing security for major firms such as aviation security checks, jewelers, artworks, and auction houses. These businesses are the cornerstones of the development of security companies."

"Secondly, collaboration with law enforcement supplements their role, easing local security pressures and handling defendants transport and custody duties."

"Last year, we partnered with Los Angeles police, resulting in a 34% reduction in local crime. Our contribution was pronounced."

Hardy did not lie about this. Los Angeles is known as the capital of crime. Since HD Security cooperated with the police department, the crime rate in the entire city has indeed dropped significantly.

The most important thing is that he has the final say in the territory of the Austrians Gang and the Bill Gang. The crime in these places has decreased, and the data has naturally dropped significantly.

"Thirdly, elite security services safeguard celebrities, entrepreneurs, and politicians, and secure national corporations abroad. In certain volatile nations, local police alone cannot safeguard corporate assets."

"Fourthly, we provide prison security, supplementing guards roles. I also envisage prison privatization. Governments fund these facilities, with operational and supervisory duties handled by management firms."

The veteran general redirected his gaze to Hardy. His initial queries about Hardy\'s ideas were mundane, but the prison privatization proposal caught him off guard.

"Any further plans?"

"Yes, security firms support federal law enforcement, State Department, Transportation, and even Defense Department operations, offering security, advisory, military training, intelligence, and logistical support."

"The security company has an independent intelligence department. I plan to develop it into an independent and powerful intelligence company, doing risk consulting and intelligence exploration business. It can also provide strategic business information for some large companies and groups, and provide strategic analysis for multinational companies."

"Moreover, we could form mercenary groups, contributing to international peacekeeping and local governance, potentially eradicating adversaries and many more."

"And more."

Hardy elucidated, rendering the veteran general momentarily speechless, for several concepts were advanced beyond his Second World War era military acumen. Though he did not comprehend it all, he deemed such ventures plausible.

The veteran general mused, reflecting upon the insightful youth.

Post fishing, Hardy dined at the elder general\'s ranch. They conversed extensively, fostering the veteran general\'s favorable impression of Hardy.

Post meal, Hardy bade farewell and departed. Neither mentioned contract negotiations.

Two days later, General Williams phoned, informing Hardy of General Nussen satisfaction and willingness to consult with HD Security.

That afternoon, Lancer flew once more to Detroit, finalizing a consulting pact with General Nussen, representing HD Security.

HD Security now boasts an additional high ranking general to support it.

...

Lancer returned from Detroit, and Hardy took a look at the contract from HD Security and General Nussen. The contract offered a consulting fee of $20,000 per year, along with various benefits.

As for responsibilities, it required attending several fixed meetings each year and providing advice to the company.

There was also a special clause that provided bonuses for contributions to the company\'s development, with the amounts varying.

So, what counts as a contribution?

It was actually quite simple.

For instance, if the company encountered an issue, they could ask these retired generals to make a few calls and use their connections. Such actions would be considered contributions, justifying a bonus.

Blatant money for connections.

"Lancer, I have already spoken with General Williams. Each year, we\'ll absorb 1,000 retired officers and soldiers, and we can pick the best ones. There\'s no contract—just a verbal agreement between Williams and me. HD Security is about to enter the fast lane of development."

He handed a draft to Lancer.

"This is my vision for the future development of the security company. There is a lot of room to expand the security company\'s business, we don\'t have to focus only on traditional services."

The draft outlined the security company\'s business scope, as discussed earlier by Hardy and general Nussen.

Lancer read it and looked somewhat shocked.

Private prisons. Services for the Department of Defense. An independent intelligence consulting company. Forming mercenary groups to participate in regional conflicts.

Hardy\'s vision was indeed bold.

However, upon further reflection, Lancer became excited. If they followed Hardy\'s plan, HD Security would become an incredibly powerful organization.

And he would be one of its founders.

"I will do my best." Lancer said resolutely.

...

The airline recruitment advertisement had been out for a week, attracting many inquiries. Today was the day for the recruitment meeting, and Hardy attended in person.

A man in his forties entered the conference room and handed over his resume. Hardy glanced through it, the man\'s resume was impressive. He had worked at three different airlines, most recently as an assistant to the president of United Airlines.

"Mr. Moss, how would you manage HD Airlines if you became president?" Andy asked.

The man did not hesitate and said, "Set operational goals, implement performance metrics, build a team, establish a positive corporate culture, ensure the development of core management skills, and maintain smooth communication with customers, suppliers, partners, government agencies, and banks."

The applicant spoke at length, demonstrating his familiarity with the airline business. However, Hardy had already dismissed him internally.

It was all surface level rhetoric. He might make a good assistant president, but he wasn\'t suitable for a pioneering president.

Several more candidates followed, including some operations directors from other airlines, managers from different companies, and even a former vice president of Pan Am.

But after talking with these candidates, Hardy wasn\'t impressed with any of them.

They knew the business well, but that didn\'t mean they could be suitable presidents.

Finally, a man in his mid thirties walked in. His name was John Franklin. He had previously been the executive general manager of a small local airline in Texas. After that airline was sold by its owner, he moved to United Airlines, where he was now the operations manager.

"Mr. Franklin, how would you manage HD Airlines if you became president?"
