Hardy Empire 1945

Walking out of the airport, there was a motorcade parked outside, with the letters 'HD' on the car, Excuse me, is Congressman Nixon?

The person in charge of the security company came forward and asked.

it's me.

Mr. Congressman, hello, I'm here to pick you up, please get in the car, and I'll take you to the HD security headquarters. The greeter said.

Nicholson and his assistant got into the car, and the car drove all the way to the HD Security headquarters in the Hollywood district. After more than a year of construction, HD Security was no longer the original toy factory, but a heavily guarded base.

Before the car entered the gate, the driver picked up the walkie-talkie, Headquarters, I am car No. 15. The guests have been received, and I will enter the base immediately.

Headquarters received.

Nicholson and his assistant looked at the walkie-talkies, and thought that this HD security was really advanced, even equipped with walkie-talkies for the military, and the police don't have them now.

The car was parked under the office building. As soon as Nixon got out of the car, Hardy, Lanster and others came out to greet him.

Hello, Mr. Congressman, I'm Jon Hardy. Hardy smiled and shook hands with the other party.

Mr. Hardy, I have heard of your name for a long time, and this time I finally met. Nixon said with a smile.

At this moment, two photographers came by, one with a camera on his shoulders and the other with a camera, and they kept shooting at the two of them.

This is? Nixon asked in surprise.

Hehe, Mr. Congressman's visit, it is natural to record such an important event. Later, I will have someone publish today's news in the newspaper, and there are photos to accompany it. Hardy said.

Nicholsson said in his heart that this Hardy is really caring, if he finds a newspaper to publish, then he doesn't have to send the draft to the newspaper himself.

The two walked into the headquarters building.

Hardy introduced various departments to Nixon, including the business department, logistics support department, intelligence analysis room, technical defense support department, and operation command department...

Nixon said in his heart, it is no wonder that HD Security is so powerful. The department set up is completely different from other security companies, and it is completely adapted from the military settings.

After visiting the headquarters.

Hardy invited Nixon to watch the security team training.

The base is 30 acres in size. In addition to office buildings and warehouses, a training base has also been built, and the team members who are not on the field will exercise here.

Obstacle running, combat training, weapon shooting training.

The training was in full swing, and Nixon also participated in World War II, so he had a deep affection for the army. Watching the training of HD players was very emotional.

I think the amount of training is greater than when I was in the army, but it looks very scientific, and almost all items are included. Nixon said.

This set of training methods is specially designed by someone we found, which can maximize the personal ability and comprehensive quality of soldiers. Hardy said.

After training, the team members gather.

More than 200 team members stood there, all in high spirits, showing a sturdy and mighty temperament.

Nicholson enthusiastically took photos with these people.

The cameraman and photographer recorded the scene.

Hardy had ordered before that the photographers should not worry about the film and leave enough image data, not only for newspapers, only one photo is enough for newspapers.

Hardy thought more, waiting for the guy to become the vice president or president in the future, and use these materials to make a program for broadcast, which is another wave of powerful publicity for HD security.

You want to use me for show.

Don't blame me for using you to advertise in the future.

Inside Hardy's office.

The secretary brought two cups of coffee, put them down, and exited. Only Nicholson and Hardy were left in the room. Hardy helped Nicholson fix a cigar, and the two smoked a cigar and chatted.

Hardy, I heard your family is from Orange County?

right.

My family is in the town of Yorba Linda, and we are only an hour's drive away. Nixon said with a smile.

We are the real fellows. Hardy said with a smile.

Yes, which unit did you serve in? Nicholson asked.

I serve in the Marine Corps.

I'm also in the navy, Nicholson said.

The two chatted about their experience as soldiers, and the more they talked, the closer they got, and they felt like they had become friends.

Hadi, I came back this time and saw that Los Angeles has changed a lot. There are more people on the street and it is more lively. This is inseparable from the contribution of HD security. I am very happy to see that Los Angeles is getting better and better. Glad. Nicholson said.

This is not due to me alone. Mr. Congressman works in the government, and what you do is also for the betterment of your hometown. Everyone will see your contribution. Hardy said.

Then let's work together to make our hometown better? Nixon said, reaching out to Hardy.

Hardy didn't hesitate.

He reached out his hand and shook Nixon.

Work together and contribute to the construction of our hometown.

Hardy smiled and said: Mr. Congressman, if there is anything you need, feel free to speak up. You are a congressman who goes out from your hometown. For the construction of your hometown, I am willing to support the congressmen from your hometown to go to a higher position.

What Hardy said was straightforward enough.

Nicholson naturally understood.

This is the purpose of his trip, and now the two have finally reached a consensus.

As for how to cooperate in the future, we will negotiate again when we encounter problems.

noon.

Hardy invited Nixon to dinner at a nice restaurant, and Nixon remained enthusiastic. In the afternoon, he went to the Barbie factory, the Playboy magazine office, the television factory, and the headquarters of ABC in Los Angeles.

ABC TV station has not officially started broadcasting yet, but many people are already busy preparing for the broadcast.

Walking into a studio, Hardy told Nicholson that this is a talk show, and the host will invite movie stars, scientists, and politicians to participate in the show.

Speaking of which, he looked at Nicholson and said, Mr. Nicholson, if Mr. Congressman needs publicity in the future, ABC TV station can help and do a talk show, so that people all over the United States will watch it. I believe it will be of great help to you. Propaganda.

Nicholson's eyes lit up, and his expression was a little excited.

Television is indeed a powerful tool for publicity. If he does a talk show, the public will know him, and he goes to the local area to do publicity, and the effect will be better.

Think about those movie stars and singers, they will be sought after wherever they go, and the congressman spends money on publicity, isn't it just to achieve this effect.

Hadi, I am here to thank you first, maybe one day I will ask you for help. Nixon said.

Hehe, I believe that day will come soon.

This sentence actually meant to wish Nixon a high promotion, which made Nixon very happy.

Nixon looked at Hardy, thought of something and lowered his voice slightly, and said, Haddy, I am friends with George Whelan, the mayor of San Francisco. If your HD security wants to sign a contract with the San Francisco Police Department, I can help introduce you. .”

HD Security has opened a branch in San Francisco. The security personnel of Wells Fargo and Bank of America in San Francisco have all been replaced by HD Security.

Lanster had approached the current chief of the San Francisco Police Department before, hoping to cooperate, but the police chief named Shi Ge was not interested in this model. He felt that the existence of HD security greatly weakened the power of the police.

The police should master their own power instead of renting it out. That will only make others grow, while the power of the police will shrink more and more.

So now also failed to sign with the San Francisco Police Department.

If Nixon introduces the mayor of San Francisco to him, then Hardy can use the relationship of the mayor of San Francisco and directly give orders to the director.

look,

I just made friends and showed a little sincerity, and now I have gained something.

This is called giving always pays off.

Mr. Nicholson, why don't you contact Mayor Whelan, let's have dinner and chat tonight, Hardy said.

Nicholson said in his heart, this Hardy is really straightforward in his work.

I just mentioned it, and he was ready to implement it immediately.

It is no wonder that he can own such a large industry in a short period of time.

Perhaps it is because of this vigorous and resolute energy.

no problem.

Nicholson called San Francisco, and the phone was connected quickly. The two exchanged a few words, and Nicholson said he wanted to introduce a friend to him.

Who?

Jon Hardy, owner of HD Security.

Jon Hardy, I know, I'd love to get to know each other.

Are you free that night? Let's have dinner together at night?

Are you in San Francisco?

I'm in Los Angeles. Mr. Hardy has his own airline, and he can go there anytime. Nicholson said.

 …

After more than an hour,

A C-52 landed at San Francisco Airport, with the logo of HD Aviation on the fuselage. If it wasn't for Hardy's B-29 Sky Fortress, which is still being remodeled, it must have been brought over.

The mayor of San Francisco entertained Nicholson and Hardy at a club. Hardy met each other for the first time. Mayor Whelan is about fifty years old this year. very kind.

Although the word amiable is not suitable for a politician, this George Whelan does give people the first impression of amiability.

Hardy said in his heart that this guy has a natural face for politics.

The two sides exchanged pleasantries, Hardy is also a celebrity now, and the two quickly became friends. They had dinner together and the three of them took a walk by the lake.

Whelan, are you going to run for state legislature next year? Nicholson asked.

Yes, I have this idea, what about you, are you planning to run for the Senate next year? Whelan asked.

Nicholson nodded, I do have that idea, but you know that I am too young, and my qualifications and contacts are not as good, so I need the help of my friends.

When Nixon said this, he smiled and looked at Hardy beside him.

At this time, Hardy looked at Mayor Whelan and said with a smile, Mr. Mayor, if you want to participate in the election and need campaign funds, I am willing to pay $50,000.

Also, my ABC radio station is about to start broadcasting. At that time, I can help you shoot a promotional video and broadcast it on it to increase your popularity on the east coast.

Whelan was overjoyed when she heard that.

50,000 US dollars is a lot of money, saving enough to support the election of his state congressman, and it can also be used for publicity on TV.

Whelan calmed down and said with a smile: Actually, I have heard of the name of HD Security for a long time. Now the Los Angeles Police Department has cooperated with HD Security and achieved very good results. I think this model can also be introduced in San Francisco. Worth a try.

Hardy smiled knowingly.

This is called resource exchange.

You get what you want, I get what I want, happy life for both parties, and an extra friend. \u003c/div\u003e
