Chapter 813: 807. A Complete Mess (Seeking Subscriptions and Monthly Tickets)

The situation at the Lianhua Security Company was also giving Zhang Ran a bit of a headache.

"Look at you, you can't even handle a tiny matter, you need me to do everything, you..." Zhang Ran said to the phone, speechless.

On the other end of the line, Li Cheng kept silent sheepishly; he was truly pushed to his wit's end and had no choice but to seek help from Zhang Ran.

The security company had been developing quite well recently; Li Cheng and his people already had a certain reputation, and many people had been clear about their character for a long time.

At the very least, many people had wanted to join their ranks over these years, but they had no way in and never received approval.

Now that Li Cheng had opened a security company and had a big financier supporting him from behind the scenes, it made many people feel restless with anticipation.

Not everyone yearned for an exciting life; some people truly couldn't go back, couldn't live that kind of mundane life, but they also didn't want to face a hail of bullets every day.

And a security company could allow them to showcase their specialized skills while also protecting their safety to a certain extent.

This was what many people wanted.

But the corresponding issue was management; on this point, it had now become the most urgent matter, and as for all other things, they could be set aside.

There was no helping it, who told Li Cheng and his people that they simply didn't know how to manage.

Their team relied entirely on brotherly bonds and various forms of self-discipline, rather than regulations.

Li Cheng also wanted to use the old ways, but it was clear that this wouldn't work at all; in just over half a month, it had already become a complete mess.

Not to mention the chaos in management, even the training and various arrangements were a tangled mess.

During this period, the number of fights and brawls that had occurred was countless; if it were just fights and brawls, it might be acceptable, after all, none of them were good-natured, and who didn't have a few lives on their hands?

The key was that these people really didn't hold back when they struck.

Just those who had been hospitalized already exceeded thirty-five, and among them, twenty had broken legs or arms; one could imagine just how ruthless these people were when they struck.

And this was still with Zhang Ran having already hired people to draft those regulations; otherwise, it would likely have been even more horrific.

"Brother Zhang, please stop scolding me. I know I was wrong, but the most important thing right now isn't that, it's that you need to find someone to help with management," Li Cheng said with a bitter face.

Before, he had felt that he could run this security company well and become another great general under Zhang Ran.

But now he realized he had thought too much; at the very least, he was thinking too much now.

Zhang Ran was helpless, "Where am I supposed to find someone for you?"

He really wasn't just saying that; there truly was no one.

Zhang Ran could certainly find people with the corresponding talent, but there was no one he could trust.

This was a force that couldn't be brought into the light; no matter the circumstances, it could never be linked to Zhang Ran.

So even if others on Li Cheng's side had guessed it was Zhang Ran, Li Cheng would never say it explicitly—this was the case at all times—and he certainly wouldn't leave behind any evidence.

As for these people selling them out later, it didn't matter; as long as there was no evidence, given Zhang Ran's current situation, as long as he didn't court disaster, no one could do anything to him.

Moreover, this matter was actually a kind of tacit approval; that was what Ke Zhengde meant.

With this added layer of protection, as long as Zhang Ran's identity wasn't exposed, then everything would be fine.

But once it was exposed and confirmed by others, the impact on Zhang Ran would be extremely severe.

So Zhang Ran truly had no good candidates.

He didn't have the management ability for the people he trusted, and he couldn't feel at ease with the people he didn't trust.

Li Cheng also knew about Zhang Ran's difficulties; he had a candidate, but he didn't dare to say it, or rather, without Zhang Ran's permission, he didn't know how to bring it up.

"Fine, wait for me for a while, I'll look," Zhang Ran had no choice but to look.

Li Cheng said, "Alright, but Brother Zhang, you must be quick. Right now I'm using a high-pressure policy, and this method won't last long."

"Fine, fine, I know, you guy..." Zhang Ran cursed and hung up the phone, then felt a bit worried.

Where was he supposed to find this candidate?

Yin Long was an option; he had such ability and had experienced the baptism of war, so he could fully handle it.

But the current Yin Long was not the same as before; he was also a billionaire, so it was impossible for him to do these things, and Zhang Ran also had more important things for him to do.

After thinking for a while, Zhang Ran suddenly made a call to Zhang Sicheng and Siyan, and the three of them had a video call on an encrypted channel.

"The situation is just like this, do you two have any suitable candidates?" Zhang Ran asked the brother and sister.

Regardless of anything else, this force would definitely have to be handed over to Zhang Sicheng or Siyan in the future; although it was most likely to be Zhang Sicheng, Zhang Ran wouldn't exclude Siyan either.

Siyan shook her head directly and said, "Dad, I don't know anyone like that, and I don't want to get involved in such matters. You should ask Big Brother."

She also understood the importance of this force; it looked like it had just been established and was only a ragtag army, but it was very likely to be a very important force for their Zhang Family in the future.

The Zhang Family was quite wealthy, but having money also required a certain ability to protect it; it was absolutely fine while Zhang Ran was around, but what if Zhang Ran wasn't?

And it was best for this force to be in the hands of Zhang Sicheng; he was the eldest son of the Zhang Family and should rightfully shoulder this responsibility.

Zhang Sicheng also understood quickly, but he didn't have a single candidate; in his life experience, he had never encountered talent in this area.

"Dad, I don't have a candidate either; I don't know anyone like that at all," Zhang Sicheng said in distress.

Zhang Ran looked at the brother and sister and only said, "You two should think about it carefully again."

In fact, he notified the two siblings for a reason, which was that once the Lianhua Security Company developed in the future, the Zhang Family wouldn't need to come forward, but the leadership there needed to know who they were serving.

Moreover, letting them get involved now could allow them to better control this force, and at the same time, allow them to be better recognized.

This kind of force was different from other industries; for other industries, no matter what, as long as the shares were in hand, and the Zhang Family didn't completely decline, then there would be no problem at all.

But Lianhua Security was different; it didn't just need shares and money, it needed recognition even more, and this point was actually the most important.

These people said they were selling their lives for money, but in reality, they valued the so-called sense of recognition more than most people.

This was also something Zhang Ran needed to consider in advance; everything he was doing now was paving the way for the Zhang siblings, perhaps this was just a natural change after becoming a parent.
