Rebirth in 1985

Chapter 292: Establishing an Intelligence Network

Lu Shaohua is an impatient person. He will never put off today's affairs until tomorrow, and he will never do the day after tomorrow's affairs today. Now that he has finished talking to Chu Lei about business, Lu Shaohua is also planning to leave. In addition to having something to do with Chen Guobang, Chu Lei also has business to do, so when he finished talking about business, Lu Shaohua was ready to leave Chu Lei's office.

Lu Shaohua was about to leave, so of course Li Shangkui and the others had to follow him. However, before leaving, Li Shangkui did not immediately follow Lu Shaohua but went to the office, which made Chu Lei very strange. But what happened next gave him a shock. Li Shangkui smiled at him, then opened a drawer and took out four Desert Eagles, leaving Chu Lei completely speechless.

After a long while, Chu Lei spoke incoherently. "This is... this is... a privately stored... gun..."

"Haha! Brother Lei, don't be nervous. We have gun licenses." Li Shangkui laughed, took out his gun license and waved it in front of Chu Lei, then picked it up and followed Lu Shaohua.

After Li Shangkui left the room, Chu Lei patted his chest, wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and muttered to himself, "I didn't expect that he had a formal gun license. It seems that Lu Shaohua is not simple."

……

Of course, Lu Shaohua had no idea what Chu Lei was talking about when he walked out of the door. He went straight to the elevator and waited until Li Shangkui caught up with him before he opened the elevator door and went downstairs to the security company's building.

When Mr. Deng was about to leave, Lu Shaohua did not see Chen Guobang go to see him off. Lu Shaohua guessed that Chen Guobang went back to his office. Obviously, Lu Shaohua's guess was correct. Chen Guobang really stayed in the office. When he saw Lu Shaohua come in, a smile appeared on his face, showing that he was in a good mood today.

When Lu Shaohua saw Chen Guobang's smile, he roughly understood what made him happy. It was nothing more than Deng Lao's words "check it out" and meeting his former instructor. After all, the instructors in the army are the objects of admiration of their soldiers!

"Brother, you seem to be in a good mood!" Lu Shaohua said with a smile, as if he was infected by Chen Guobang.

"Yes, I'm in a good mood. It's really unexpected that I can see the instructor." When Chen Guobang spoke, his eyes were a little empty, as if he was recalling his past in the army. But he was only stunned for a moment and recovered immediately.

"Haha! Then looking back on the past won't make you happy?" Lu Shaohua asked casually.

Chen Guobang looked at Lu Shaohua meaningfully, and after a while he slowly said, "It's not important to look into the past. I have made mistakes. Even if the mistakes were not enough to get expelled from the military, it's meaningless to look into them now. I have long been accustomed to my current life. It's impossible for me to go back to the life I used to."

Chen Guobang's meaning was very clear. Even if the military had dealt with him too harshly, it would not make any sense to him. Rehabilitation? It would not make any sense whether he was rehabilitated or not, because he was no longer used to the life of living on the edge of a knife. Instead, he was used to the feeling of working in a company.

"Hey! Don't think about it. It is still necessary to restore your reputation. As for returning to the army." Lu Shaohua paused for a moment before adding, "If you don't want to return to the army, then don't go back. Anyway, you don't have to worry about food and clothing."

Lu Shaohua respects Chen Guobang's choice. If his reputation is restored and he asks to return to the army, Lu Shaohua will not stop him. Not only will he not stop him, but on the contrary he will support him. After all, Chen Guobang is Lu Shaohua's eldest brother.

"Okay, let's stop talking about this. I know you must have something to say. Let's talk about business." Chen Guobang waved his hand and said.

"Yes! There are indeed a few things." Lu Shaohua's face straightened and he continued, "The first thing is something I just learned, that is, Qingyun's wife is coming to Shenzhen, and I want him to stay at the security company. Big brother, please make some arrangements for him."

After hearing what Lu Shaohua said, Chen Guobang turned to look at Zhang Qingyun and asked, "Really?"

"Yeah!" Zhang Qingyun said blushing.

"That's good, I solved my personal problem." Chen Guobang made a small joke, then turned around and nodded to Lu Shaohua, saying, "I solved this problem, and now my primary goal is to have another person by your side!"

Lu Shaohua stopped and said, "The people around me are not that anxious. My identity has not been exposed, so there is no danger at all."

Chen Guobang's face straightened and he said, "No, this kind of thing can't be joked about. Your safety is important. If you don't mention this today, I will mention sending more bodyguards sooner or later."

Without waiting for Lu Shaohua to object, Chen Guobang continued, "How about this, I'll call Zhijie and ask him if he has any Chinese mercenaries. If he does, I'll transfer four more."

Seeing that Chen Guobang was not joking, Lu Shaohua did not object, and since the group had already officially started, there was a real potential risk to personal safety, so he said, "Then Big Brother, please arrange it."

"Well, don't worry about it, I'll do it." Seeing that Lu Shaohua didn't object, Chen Guobang's tense face became better, and he said immediately, "Let's talk about other things."

"Okay, let me tell you about an idea. I had planned this idea a few years ago, but the time was not right at that time, so I never proposed it. Now the time is right and it is urgent. I feel it is necessary to take action." Lu Shaohua said all this in one breath and had to stop to take a breath. "As the business gets bigger and bigger, I personally feel it is necessary to set up an intelligence network myself. Whether it is the mercenary group or the business, an intelligence system network is very necessary."

From beginning to end, Chen Guobang did not move, and listened quietly. When Lu Shaohua finished speaking, Chen Guobang fell into thought, and said after a long time, "The intelligence network does need to be established, but it requires a lot of money."

"There is no problem with the money. The main problem is how and where to set it up. Also, I'm not an expert in this area, so I came to discuss it with you, brother." Lu Shaohua had guessed that Chen Guobang had no objection, so as soon as Chen Guobang finished speaking, Lu Shaohua immediately continued.

"Well, it's definitely not possible to set it up in China. I personally think it's better to set it up in Africa. Anyway, there are very few businesses in China that require intelligence networks, and mercenary groups need more." Chen Guobang first decided on a location. "As for how to set it up, we need to discuss it more."

"Well! Let's leave it at that. Big brother, you handle it." Lu Shaohua simply pushed the blame onto Chen Guobang.

Chen Guobang also knew that Lu Shaohua's participation would not play any role, so he nodded and agreed, and then said, "Zhijie should have set up a small intelligence network. We just need to expand it and improve some details."

Lu Shaohua nodded and said nothing more, turning the topic to Chen Guobang's personal problems. "Brother, you are not young anymore, and Brother Zhang already has a wife, you should also consider it."

Lu Shaohua's words were supported by everyone, and Zhang Qingyun was the first to speak up. "Yes, Brother Guobang, it's time for you to think about it. If you don't have a partner, I'll ask my wife to introduce you to someone!"

"That's right. You're almost thirty years old. It's time to resolve your personal problems." Li Shangkui also agreed.

……

……

The power of the crowd once again worked. Chen Guobang's face turned red after being talked about by everyone. In the end, he could only compromise in disguise and said, "I'll look for it."

Lu Shaohua was very happy about Chen Guobang's compromise. He smiled and said "hold on tight" and said nothing else.

……

In the blink of an eye, an afternoon passed quietly. Lu Shaohua returned to his villa around five o'clock. The first thing he did when he entered the villa was to call Liu Mingzhang in Hong Kong and ask him to discuss with Qin Sichen, the group's hospitality president, to transfer a few experienced people to Shenzhen to assist Chu Lei in managing the company, which could also be regarded as guiding Chu Lei.

Liu Mingzhang was determined to carry out the orders given by Lu Shaohua to the end. He responded on the phone, then asked Lu Shaohua when he would return to Hong Kong and said he would go talk to Qin Sichen.

Lu Shaohua also understood Liu Mingzhang's impatience, so she ignored him and the first thing she thought about after hanging up the phone was Qin Sichen's matter. She was the executive president of the group, and Lu Shaohua did not handle many things through her but through Liu Mingzhang, the deputy executive president, which seemed a bit unreasonable.

"Oh! It seems that I need to communicate more with Qin Sichen, this talented woman." Lu Shaohua muttered.

……

There was no conversation that night, and the night soon fell. Lu Shaohua also went to bed early and fell asleep. The next morning he got up very early. Before 8 o'clock, he was already sitting on the sofa on the first floor watching TV and paying attention to the news.

At exactly eight o'clock, Shenzhen TV was watching a morning news program. Lu Shaohua concentrated all his energy and stared at the TV without blinking. He wanted to see how the TV station reported Deng's inspection of the Phoenix Group's production base yesterday.

Time didn't make Lu Shaohua wait long. The second news program reported Deng's trip to Shenzhen yesterday, followed by his inspection of the base. The familiar scene of the base appeared on the screen. Deng's every move and expression were clearly shown, as well as the scene of him trying out the car and a series of other scenes.

After the picture was shown, the host specifically mentioned that the car was produced by Phoenix Group, and then cut to the third news. Every third piece of news was also about the inspection of the base, but this time the picture was of Deng Lao's speech in a conference room, and the content of the speech was also cut to the part where Deng Lao was talking about cars. This made Lu Shaohua feel strange. Why didn't the news show anything else but only about cars?

After much thought, Lu Shaohua concluded that the TV station deliberately targeted cars at the instigation of someone. This was indeed the case. The TV station was indeed instructed by someone, but no matter what, this undoubtedly brought benefits to Lu Shaohua, and he was too happy to wait.

Then, the TV screen continued to switch, and it was still Deng's inspection, but this time the inspection was not to the Phoenix Group, but to other places. Lu Shaohua also lost interest in watching it. After turning off the TV, he walked to the phone, picked up the receiver and dialed a number.
