Chapter 604 Take off! Titan Military Resources Company!
Long Zhan knew that Lushui Company was a standard medium-sized enterprise in terms of scale, and the internal structure of the company should have been complete.
But now that the management is poor and on the verge of bankruptcy, and most of the employees have been fired, there are still people working in the legal department, which really surprises Long Zhan.
The salary of a business lawyer is not low.
This also fully reflects the importance of the legal department to a company. Whether it can have an excellent business lawyer to take charge of legal issues will determine how much "trouble" the company will have after it is officially put into operation.
If you don’t want to get involved in various lawsuits, you must be on top of your legal affairs.
Lvshui Company prepared legal lawyers in advance, and it was only the beginning that surprised Long Zhan. The real exciting moment was when the real owner entered the door.
"Fuck, is it him? That old man?"
When the business lawyer from Green Water Company walked in, Long Zhan thought he was dazzled.
This business lawyer named Andro turned out to be the old gatekeeper that Long Zhan and his entourage could see in the security booth every time they came over.
A business lawyer with a monthly salary of RMB 1,000 has a part-time job as a security guard with a monthly salary of RMB 1,000.
Isn't this the same as driving a Rolls-Royce and forcing it to haul sweet potatoes and harvest corn in the village, which is a pure waste of good things.
Regarding Andrea's magical personnel arrangement, Long Zhan really cannot understand it.
But what?
This is someone else's own personnel arrangement. The client, Barrister Andro, has no objection. As an outsider, what else can he say?
Although I don’t know why Andro is willing to lower his status and look after the gate here to retire.
However, as an old lawyer over 50 years old, he is definitely experienced in corporate business and can review contracts very quickly.
Although Starscream is young, he is no less impressive.
His capable approach, clear mind, and thorough understanding of commercial contracts demonstrate what it means to be a top law student at Yale University.
After confirming that the acquisition contract is generally OK, the next step is for the legal representatives of both parties to formally enter the acquisition process.
First, determine the method of acquisition, whether it will be a cash purchase, a share transaction, a mixed transaction, a debt-based acquisition, a leveraged acquisition, etc.
Long Zhan came with a lot of cash, so he naturally chose the most convenient cash purchase.
Next is designing the core terms of the acquisition agreement.
Including the subject of the transaction, confirming the transaction price, confirming the payment terms, whether there is a share issuance, whether there are performance commitments and bets, writing statements and guarantee-related agreements, delivery terms, tax liability, target company governance terms, special terms (such as core personnel
Long Zhan is a novice in this regard. He doesn't understand many things, and he doesn't give random instructions from the side.
After all, every other line is like a mountain.
I simply left it all to Starscream, and asked my best friend Tucker, who still had half a bucket of water in this regard, to help keep an eye on things to prevent problems.
Acquiring a company sounds simple, but it's actually quite complicated.
There are a lot of various contracts, agreements, clauses, supplementary agreement clauses, etc., which are very time-consuming to deal with.
Long Zhan didn’t know anything about this aspect, as long as he was responsible for signing and paying in the end.
It was really boring to sit here and look at it. After asking, it would probably take until the afternoon to get it done. Long Zhan decided to go and take a look at his company headquarters in advance.
As the boss here, Andrea offered to accompany Long Zhan.
Long Zhan happily accepted the beauty's company.
The two left the office and walked out of the headquarters office building, preparing to take a small golf cart and stroll along the base.
The area of 800 acres is large or small, but it is quite strenuous to walk on both legs.
Traveling by car will be much easier and more comfortable.
Long Zhan drove a small golf cart himself, and his huge body sat in the two-meter-long car, like an adult shoehorned into a toy car.
The picture is so funny!
"God willing, this car can hold up."
Andrea was amused by this funny scene. She sat in the back seat and deliberately prayed very seriously, as if she was afraid that the car would be crushed and fall apart.
Long Zhan felt offended, but when he thought about it, there was nothing wrong with him.
Who calls myself big?
He could only pretend not to hear Andrea's teasing, change the subject and ask: "Miss Andrea, what facilities do you have here?"
"I'm not very sure. You know, women are not interested in this aspect."
Andrea flipped up her bangs that were blown by the wind, showing elegance in everything from her sitting posture to the way she spoke, and she didn't think there was anything wrong with her words.
"You are not interested, and you still open a PMC company? Do rich people start businesses like this? No wonder such a profitable company is on the verge of bankruptcy because of you."
Long Zhan was left speechless, complaining crazily in his heart, and continued to ask helplessly: "There should be a shooting range, can you take me there to have a look?"
"There are several shooting ranges, which one are you interested in?" Andrea asked.
"Let's read them all. Anyway, if we have time, they won't be able to finish it all in a short time, right?" Long Zhan said with a smile.
Although it was basically confirmed that Andrea was a lesbian, this woman was a top-notch beauty after all, and Long Zhan enjoyed the atmosphere of hanging out with beautiful women.
"Of course there is no problem. Besides, I will lose everything here soon. I have to hurry up and take a closer look. Even though it is evidence of my entrepreneurial failure, I still want to keep it in my memory forever."
Andrea laughed at herself very humorously, stretched out her green fingers, pointed in the direction and said: "Go over there, let's start from the indoor shooting range."
As the base of a PMC company, its basic functions are actually similar to those of the military.
In addition to various necessary living storage facilities, such as vaults for storing firearms, corresponding tactical venues, fitness venues, living areas for bathing, leisure and eating, etc.
There must also be corresponding standardized facilities so that the company can undertake various contracts.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Among various external contracting contracts, the most indispensable and important thing is the core facilities, which are various shooting ranges that are complete enough.
This is also the facility that takes up the most space.
From pistol ranges from 50 yards to 100 yards, rifle ranges from 100 yards to 300 yards, and sniper ranges with a maximum distance of more than 600 yards, etc.
In addition, there are indoor and outdoor shooting ranges, shooting ranges for novices and tactical shooting ranges for hardcore players, etc.
A qualified PMC company training base must have a large enough territory in order to prevent bullets from flying out of the "home".
The base area of Lvshui Company is 800 acres, which sounds like a large area.
In fact, if converted into square area, it is a site 800 meters long and 666.67 meters wide.
Excluding various venue facilities, living areas, the construction area of the headquarters building, etc., there is not much space left, and at most it can only be a few pistol shooting ranges.
It's a bit reluctant to set up a rifle range. At most one will be saturated, otherwise bullets will easily fly out from the base.
Once you hit someone outside, you will inevitably get into all kinds of trouble.
There is a training requirement of more than 400 meters, let alone a sniper rifle range with a longer range. It is difficult to create a base of 800 acres.
If we insist on setting up a sniper range, the planning of the entire base will be a mess.
The middle of the shooting range needs to be absolutely closed. There is a "sniper lane" of several hundred meters in the middle of the base, which is extremely troublesome when you think about it.
One of the U.S. military training subjects is precision shooting, which requires designing a target 1,000 yards away.
The requirements for the training ground are even higher.
Accompanied by the elegant beauty Andrea, Long Zhan visited the deserted base, and time seemed to pass extremely fast.
Unknowingly.
The time came to 1 o'clock noon.
Through this period of tour, Long Zhan had a general understanding of the headquarters base of Green Water Company, and he also had a certain positioning for it in his mind.
The 800-acre site is too small to accept large-scale training or training project contracts.
Long Zhan is a person who came out of the army. He has enough connections within the army and knows many leaders who are still familiar with him.
Naturally, I want to get more military contracts. It would be even better if I could sign a long-term contract.
Think back to the beginning.
Regardless of whether Long Zhan was in the Marine Corps or later joined the Navy SEALs.
Since the Cold War between the United States and the Soviet Union has completely ended, President Clinton has comprehensively cut defense spending and closed a large number of military facilities since he came to power.
However, the cuts were made in the wrong direction, and military spending was severely cut.
The presidents who came to power later were not idle. Each one was better than the other at making troubles. All kinds of wars almost never stopped.
There is less military spending and fewer military training facilities, but the Middle East and Africa are booming.
The number of armies is increasing, and soldiers who want to fight need to be trained. At one time, there was a strange scene where several troops competed for a training ground at the same time.
You green hats want to do target shooting, so do our seals, and so do their marines.
In order to compete for the training ground, conflicts often arise.
Under the influence of this urgent need, private contractor companies such as Blackwater, Clover, and Daiyang International were born to specifically serve the military.
They established corresponding training ground facilities and contracted them to the military for training.
The PMC industry began to flourish!
By the time it has developed into the 21st century, the PMC industry has basically taken shape and grown, and its design fields have become more diverse. It has also reached a very mature stage in terms of providing services to the military.
Many training subjects for Long Zhan and his teammates were completed in venues contracted from outside.
From free-hand rock climbing, special flying, to various shooting subjects, they are all conducted at venues found outside, rather than at venues built by the military itself.
This method indeed saves money for the military and makes it easier to apply for funds.
This is like if you want to spend 30 million US dollars at a time to build a large outdoor rock climbing training ground, it is basically impossible.
But if you only apply for 300,000 US dollars and let one of your companies complete outdoor rock climbing training subjects, it won’t take much effort at all.
The top brass of the U.S. military who manage money are also very satisfied with this cooperation model.
The pressure on financial and military expenditures has been greatly reduced.
It is this kind of gain for both sides that makes PMC an indispensable part of the U.S. military and the U.S. government.
Renting out space to train the army and helping the army do shady work.
Contracting for logistics maintenance of aircraft, tanks, warships, and submarines, contracting for material transportation in US military theaters, warehouse logistics and security protection, etc.
The shadow of the PMC industry can be seen in every part of the US military system.
The market here is so big, and you can imagine how huge the profits will be. Since Long Zhan decided to enter this industry, he definitely wanted to get a share of the pie.
Don't step too far, otherwise it will easily pull your crotch.
Long Zhan knows this better than anyone else.
Therefore, before in-depth cooperation with the US military and obtaining a super large order worth hundreds of millions of dollars, Long Zhan chose a project that was easier to get involved in——
Provide professional military training and training venues for the U.S. military, police, National Guard, CIA, FBI, IRS and other law enforcement agencies.
Use this as a springboard to accumulate talents, and then radiate to countries around the world, provide training for troops in various countries, and slowly expand the company's territory.
To have such large-scale training qualifications, the prerequisite is a large enough training base.
Green Water Company's base headquarters is too small to be connected to Long Zhan's project, so it can only find ways to find "land" again in the future.
Fortunately, Long Zhan's acquisition of Lushui Company was not for its training base. This 800-acre base is actually an accessory.
What Long Zhan wants is just the various contracting qualifications and licenses owned by Green Water Company.
As for the company’s real training base…
Long Zhan already has a suitable position in his mind, and after completing the acquisition of Green Water Company, he and Tucker will go on an on-site inspection.
Choose a suitable piece of land there, take it over and build it into the perfect base you have in mind.
As for the 800-acre green water company base, Long Zhan thought it would be a good idea to use it as the company's headquarters, specifically to house the company's internal personnel.
After the company acquisition is completed, Longzhan will start recruiting contractors to settle in.
After these contractors signed contracts with the company and became employees of Long Zhan, they definitely needed a place to settle.
The headquarters base of Green Water Company is undoubtedly the most perfect location.
…
After returning to the office building after the inspection of the headquarters base, Starscream and Andro's work is not over yet.
Andrea seemed to be in a good mood, and as the host, she invited everyone to the best restaurant in Salt Lake City for a meal that was, let alone expensive, expensive.
Six people ate more than 10,000 US dollars in one meal, and they were worthy of being the "eldest lady" from a wealthy family.
After dinner, we continued back to the base headquarters. We were busy for nearly two hours in the afternoon. The whole process went very smoothly, and I pointed out a few hiccups.
That is, Andrea proposed an additional agreement and must agree to sell the company to Long Zhan.
The content of the additional agreement is not complicated.
That is, after Longzhan only has Green Water Company, he must give Andrea priority in providing all the contracting services that PMC can provide.
Not limited to personal VIP security, overseas protection, armed escort, etc.
The additional agreement proposed by Andrea is not excessive. It only requires priority in providing services and will also provide money. Long Zhan is completely acceptable.
With a stroke of his pen, he signed his name.
The additional agreement was just one of them, and there was a huge pile of various documents for the entire acquisition process. Long Zhan was immersed in writing, and he didn’t know how many names he signed.
Until Long Zhan transferred 25 million US dollars to the account provided by Andrea.
The contract signed by both parties was in duplicate. Long Zhan and Andrea shook hands when handing over the contract, poured a glass of red wine and drank it happily to celebrate the cooperation.
This long process of company acquisition is finally over.
From this moment on, Long Zhan owned his own company.
The dream finally took the first step!
Whether Long Zhan can climb to the top and become a giant in the future is impossible to predict now, but he will try his best to achieve this goal.
Either climb to the top of the world and become a hero, or fall down and become a withered skeleton on the road to success.
There is absolutely no third way!
After completing the successful acquisition of Green Water Company, I thought of the more powerful Blackwater Company on the other side, which has now changed its name due to the Iraq scandal, and the company's revenue has dropped significantly.
Long Zhan felt that these names with water in them were symbols of unlucky luck.
I asked Andrea for help right away, found an acquaintance to go through the green channel for quick processing, and submitted an application to change the company name.
The original "Green Water Military Resources Company" was officially renamed "Atlas Military Resources Incorporate", abbreviated as "AMRI".
Translated as: Titan Military Resources Company!
Titan comes from the giant company in a shooting game that Long Zhan loved to play when he was a mercenary in his previous life. It is also a private military contractor company.
In the game, as a company, you become a member of the United Nations.
On an equal footing with other countries in the world.
Long Zhan named his company Titan because he also has the ambition to build a real-life Titan and wants to build a super company belonging to Long Zhan.
The name of the God of Wishes can also overwhelm the entire world and become an existence that makes the world tremble with every stomp of its feet.
