After attending a grand dinner at the Peninsula Hotel to entertain the Chinese Olympic Organizing Committee's visiting Hong Kong delegation, Wang Yaocheng dragged his exhausted body into the car. A convoy of six Rolls-Royces drove through the bustling streets of Hong Kong at night, attracting the attention of passers-by.
"Wow... The King of Wealth's appearance on the street is quite a big show, do you want to be so exaggerated?"
"A rich man's life is precious, but he thinks he is a street kid like you."
"Damn, I can't afford a wheel anyway."
"That's enough. Do you think Wang Bancheng is shouting for nothing?"
"That's right, Hong Kong people work for the God of Wealth as soon as they open their eyes. They live in the building, use water, electricity, gas, go out by cars and ships, go shopping at Watsons and Carrefour, and the God of Wealth's shops are all over the streets and alleys, and they also make phone calls.
Your mobile phone and recharged phone bill, even the clothes you wear and the Coca-Cola soda you drink, are all the property of the God of Wealth. To reach this level as a human being is already incredible!"
"Uh... let me rub it, it's really awesome!"
Sitting in the car driving quietly, passing countless neon lights along the way, Wang Yaocheng's chiseled face was intertwined with light and shadow, and he felt deeply tired from inside.
The greater the ability, the greater the responsibility.
Only at this height can I personally experience the weight of these words, which weigh heavily on my heart.
When a consortium develops into a world-class player, it is not limited to seeking economic benefits, but also needs to assume more social responsibilities and obligations. This is the correct posture to unlock.
In this regard, there is no similar experience to draw from in the past and present.
Wang Yaocheng has been groping forward and trying to be more socially responsible.
look around the world
Large Japanese and American consortiums are not as thoughtful and meticulous as the Royal Family Fund, but Wang Yaocheng still feels that there are shortcomings, mainly in cultural communication and public welfare undertakings.
For example, in cultural communication;
The American Rockefeller Foundation owns the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Museum of Modern Art, Rockefeller Center, and the Rockefeller Foundation. It controls the boards of trustees of the University of Chicago and Rockefeller University, donates to major Ivy League schools and hospitals in the United States, and has extensive influence in the international community.
Its industries carry out rich and colorful cultural exchanges, sponsor corresponding cultural groups to expand their influence, ballet troupes, symphony concerts, cultural relics exhibitions, medical teams to poor countries, and International Red Cross disaster relief and relief activities.
It pays more attention to talent cultivation and has long-term investment in basic research on medical and scientific technology, with remarkable results.
Compared with such a behemoth, the Royal Family Fund is still insufficient in strength and deficient in all aspects!
From a corporate perspective alone, these established US-funded consortiums cannot be underestimated.
The Rockefeller consortium owns Standard Oil Company and Chase Bank, ExxonMobil, which ranked first in the world in terms of market capitalization in 2002, Chevron Texaco, BP and Royal Dutch Shell, etc.
The world's seven largest oil companies have a decisive say in the world's energy field.
It also owns McDonnell Douglas Company, Martin Marietta Company (jointly controlled with Mellon Group), Sperry Rand Company and Westin House Electric Company (jointly controlled with Mellon Group), etc.
It has great influence in the electrical and military fields.
At the same time, the Rockefeller consortium also controls the five largest airlines in the United States, including United Airlines, Pan American Airways, American Airlines, TWA and Eastern Airlines, alone or jointly with other consortiums. As well as the arms giant Grumman Aircraft Company
, Metropolitan Life Insurance and Equitable Life Insurance and more than 100 financial companies.
If Cathay Pacific wants to enter the North American aviation market, the Rockefeller family is a hurdle that cannot be overcome. It must obtain its approval before it can enter the North American aviation market, the most lucrative market in the world.
It can be seen from this that the huge influence of the Rockefeller Foundation is almost everywhere.
New financial groups like the Royal Family Fund are far from being complacent.
under the cover of night
The rows of signboards on the streets of Central are as bright as day, and there is a constant flow of consumer groups. The bustling scene of urban nightlife is everywhere.
The motorcade drove through the brightly lit streets, leaving behind a lot of astonished looks and admirations, and soon left the downtown area and entered the Taipingshan area, where there are lush vegetation and sparsely populated areas.
The accompanying bodyguards cheered up, watched the surrounding environment and suspicious people vigilantly, and were prepared to respond at any time.
This is a routine operation and everything is actually fine.
Going up the winding driveway of Taiping Mountain, the motorcade drove into the mansion on the top of the mountain. The bodyguards felt relieved and chatted and laughed while sitting in the car.
"Captain Bobcat, you are going to treat your brothers to drinks this time you get promoted!"
The Bobcat captain immediately had black lines on his head: "How many times have you all eaten me in Chinatown, New York? I've also treated you to Los Angeles, ah! There must be seven or eight meals if not ten. Why is it not over yet?"
"
"That's not possible. What kind of Chinese food is called in Chinatown in New York? It's only done if you have it at the Peninsula Hotel in Hong Kong. The previous one is just a warm-up. Brothers are already hungry and thirsty. They are just waiting for this meal from you, captain.
Yes, isn’t it, brothers?”
Everyone started cheering: "Well, yes, the Chinese food at The Peninsula Hotel in Hong Kong is the most authentic."
"Stop talking, my mouth is watering."
"You have to hire Captain Bobcat. You can't save the money."
The Bobcats helplessly wiped the cold sweat from their heads and said, "Oh no, the Peninsula Hotel in Hong Kong is so expensive! Are you going to bankrupt me?"
A five-star Hong Kong hotel provides you with ultimate enjoyment, but the price is also astonishingly high.
Even for the wedding ceremony of Hong Kong pop star Aaron Kwok, only ten tables of banquets were set up for guests at the Peninsula Hotel, which was too expensive.
Shanmao inserted his fingers and felt a chill on his back.
In addition to a total of 12 off-duty bodyguards who stayed in the United States and China, there are now three teams of 36 people in the mansion on the top of the mountain in Hong Kong, plus logistics team leader Leclerc and his men, as well as deputy captain Canbery, the original Nobita
The old captain (current security director) and so on must set up at least five tables.
If a few close secretariat and other high-level officials were added, the scope would have to be expanded, and it would be all money.
According to the standards for the chairman's banquet at the Peninsula Hotel, which does not include drinks, the minimum cost is more than 2 million. Shanmao rubbed his teeth with heartache.
The convoy drove into the underground parking garage, and everyone poured out and went about their own business.
Some of the accompanying business secretaries could leave, and the peripheral bodyguards were spread out to guard everywhere. Secretariat Director Han Jianfei followed Chairman Wang Yaocheng closely, and Shanmao entered the elevator with several personal bodyguards surrounding him, and walked all the way to the fourth floor Genting Platform.
Wang Yaocheng glanced at it casually and saw that the lynx frowned and seemed to be in a state of wandering. He asked curiously, "What's going on? I lost my soul! Or was my home robbed?"
Several other bodyguards secretly smiled and said nothing. Shanmao scratched his steel-pin-like hair in embarrassment and said, "I'm sorry, Chairman, I...I was a little distracted."
"No, there is something on your mind. Can you tell me and listen to it?"
"Uh... I made you laugh. Didn't I get promoted? The guys were asking me to treat them. I was just thinking about where to go. I was lost in thought just now." Shanmao looked a little unnatural, but
The chairman didn't dare to hide his questions.
Wang Yaocheng looked at him with interest. When the elevator door opened, he didn't leave in a hurry. After thinking about it, he knew what Shan Mao was worried about?
It's just that I'm worried about money.
He waved his hand and said;
"It's natural to treat guests after promotion. I just happened to take everyone to have fun. I'll ask Director Jianfei to say hello to you later. No matter how many tables there are, Peninsula Hotel will charge the cost price.
As for drinks, there are plenty of them in the manor. It’s sponsored by me, so you can go and have fun together, um... have a good time.”
"Chairman, this..." Shanmao was so grateful that he was speechless for a moment.
"That's it."
Wang Yaocheng was very generous to his personal assistant. He walked out of the elevator with a wave of his hand. These little things were not even a drop of rain, but they were able to gather people's hearts.
to know
The cost of drinks at the Peninsula Hotel is no less than the cost of a table. A bottle of red wine costs thousands of Hong Kong dollars! There are also high service charges and corkage fees.
The bodyguard team are all tall and fierce men. If you pick any one of them, they can blow several red bottles at once. This is no joke.
As for liquor, whiskey, or Maotai, these fierce men drink one or two bottles just for fun. Don't expect them to save money for the captain.
I remember back then, Captain Nobita was promoted to Director of Security.
The old guys like Shanmao forced Director Nobita to treat him to a meal at the Peninsula Hotel. They ate more than 5 million Hong Kong dollars for a meal, which made Director Nobita's face turn green and he was shaking with distress.
Thinking about it now makes me happy, but when it's my turn, I can't laugh anymore.
In this kind of situation, you can't use Red Star Erguotou's table to deal with it. The Bobcats can't afford to lose this person. Thinking about the scene of the guys eating mountains and seas makes people's scalp numb.
now
BOSS saved millions of Hong Kong dollars with these words. He is truly a great Bodhisattva in disaster relief. Shan Mao looked at the tall back of the chairman leaving with a grateful expression, and his heart surged with warmth.
For the Bobcats, it's not a small sum of money.
In terms of the salary level of the bodyguard team;
The annual salary of an ordinary bodyguard is about US$80,000, that of a team leader is about US$150,000, and that of a captain is higher and can reach an annual salary of US$300,000, which is almost HK$2.4 million.
The higher income part is the attendance subsidy, which is divided into 123 levels according to the degree of danger in the area where the mission is performed. The higher the degree of danger, the higher the attendance subsidy, which in total is basically two to three times the income.
At the end of the year, there will be red envelopes issued by the chairman. If you are injured during work or perform tasks well, there will be an additional generous reward.
For example;
It turned out that during the battle to repel the rampant gunmen on the Peak Road, the chairman handed out a reward of 2 million US dollars with a wave of his hand. Hammer and Cambery, who had made outstanding contributions, both received a one-time reward of 200,000 US dollars.
Taking the Bobcats as an example, the total annual income of being a team leader can reach 7.8 million US dollars, about 6 million Hong Kong dollars.
Chinese people have always had the habit of saving and living frugally, and most of their income is invested in financial management funds, which makes everyone rich and their wealth continues to increase.
The financial management fund is a benefit provided by Chairman Wang Yaocheng to the senior management and personal service personnel of the consortium. Red Hat Investment Fund is one of the main investment channels.
After more than ten years
Bobcat's net worth is as much as 20 to 30 million US dollars. The main reason is that the Red Hat Investment Fund has indeed made huge profits, which has increased several times compared with the original investment. This is equivalent to the chairman leading everyone to make money.
Even though he is rich and has a meal worth several million Hong Kong dollars, Bobcat still finds it difficult to bear. He does not have that much cash in hand to squander.
The chairman is really a bodhisattva who saves people in distress. He solved Bobcat's big problem with just one sentence.
Favorability and loyalty are earned in daily life. If you don't regard these close associates as your brothers, these associates will not risk their lives to help you in times of crisis.
Having experienced several life and death dangers, Wang Yaocheng has a deep understanding of this;
Although he was reborn and prospered, creating an unprecedented business empire, he was still a squishy guy who could be knocked down with one shot, and there was no health bonus in this regard.
Security work requires bodyguards to work conscientiously to nip problems in the bud.
People have corresponding emotions. Only by giving can you get more. Gain favor bit by bit. Otherwise, who will block the gun for you for no reason?
Wang Yaocheng didn't have much else, he just had too much money to spend, and anything that could be solved with money was no big deal.
