62: Go out independently, Giant Security

While Chen Gongdan indulged in lavish pleasures, Li Yi was meticulously informing Shao Jun (Young Lord) about the live stream incident.

Inside Manor No. 3!

Shao Jun (Young Lord) frowned as he read the message from the other party. He hadn't initially wanted to bother with Chen Gongdan, as they had no prior grievances.

As for Heavenly Palace Media, that was an issue between Li Yi and them. It was a shame, however, that they had dragged his sister into it.

They were clearly trying to make a big deal out of his sister.

He just didn't know what they were planning, but it didn't matter; all would be revealed tomorrow.

After a brief reply to Li Yi, he summoned Butler Wei and instructed him to look into the Chen Group.

At the same time!

Oregon State, USA!

A building over 200 meters tall, with four large characters emblazoned at its peak.

Colossus Group!

That's right, Yang Zhongzhou ultimately decided not to establish the group's headquarters in New York; instead, he chose a different location.

As one of Shao Jun (Young Lord)'s key lieutenants abroad, he naturally knew what his Young Lord needed.

Money?

Of course not. If it were just about money, there would have been no need for him to go overseas, or even to establish a group at all.

Because he knew his Young Lord was not short on money.

If it were about money, then locating the group in New York would have been a wise decision.

But it was clearly not about money, so he ultimately chose this location.

This was not a unilateral decision; he had already obtained Shao Jun (Young Lord)'s approval before making it.

Over these many days, with the management talent provided by Shao Jun (Young Lord), Colossus Group naturally had no shortage of people for its middle and upper management.

With these individuals, Yang Zhongzhou quickly completed the group's organizational structure and finished recruiting the entry-level staff.

After all, here, no one would go against money.

At this moment, on the top floor of the group's headquarters, three people were seated on the sofa in the chairman's office.

Yang Zhongzhou, the chairman; Wang Qingmu, the Super Hacker; and Scavenger, the Super Assassin.

Aside from Scavenger, the other two had Asian features.

Scavenger had Caucasian features, a slender build, and appeared to pose no threat.

Yet, his hawkish eyes, even when he was just sitting there, sent shivers down one's spine.

"I've called you two here today because there's an important matter I need to discuss with you."

Yang Zhongzhou broke the silence first, speaking up.

Although Shao Jun (Young Lord) had entrusted everyone to his management, he didn't treat the two as subordinates but as partners, with equal standing.

Wang Qingmu and the other man quickly waved their hands and said, "You're too kind. Just tell us what you need. The Young Lord entrusted us to you, so we'll naturally listen to you."

"Old Mu is right. Tell us, who are we killing? Are we going to take out the governor? That makes sense, he's a bit of an obstruction. If we could support someone else, Colossus Group would definitely expand rapidly."

Hearing Scavenger's words, filled with murderous intent, Yang Zhongzhou immediately broke out in a cold sweat. He had no doubt that if he simply nodded,

the other party would absolutely do it, and the target would definitely not live past tomorrow.

"Scavenger, calm down. Don't be so bloodthirsty. Killing is easy for you, but don't do meaningless things, at least not for now."

"I called you here because I want you to go out and develop independently. Staying by my side doesn't allow you to utilize your full potential."

"Take your subordinates and separate from Colossus Group."

Wang Qingmu and the other man heard this, and their hearts showed no significant change, as they had long anticipated this day.

Therefore, they were not surprised by Yang Zhongzhou's arrangement.

So, they nodded to Yang Zhongzhou, indicating no problem.

Seeing this, Yang Zhongzhou continued, "Qingmu, your abilities lie in networking, so I'll entrust the intelligence aspect to you. Take all the spies the Young Lord provided; I believe they will be of great use to you."

"As for Scavenger, I don't need to say much more; your name says it all. I won't go into other detailed matters; you two can discuss them yourselves and report back to the Young Lord when the time comes."

"Regarding funding, I can only give each of you three hundred million US dollars. How you develop is your own business."

As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Qingmu suddenly interjected, "You don't need to give me the funds; I have plenty of ways to get them. Give them to Scavenger; he needs this money more, as expanding personnel is impossible without funds."

Hearing him say this, Yang Zhongzhou didn't say much more.

After a brief chat, Wang Qingmu and Scavenger took the chairman's exclusive elevator directly to the underground parking lot, where all their people were already waiting.

The two, each with their respective teams, left the group, thus parting ways with Yang Zhongzhou.

But they did not leave Oregon.

After they left, Yang Zhongzhou called for a Super Bodyguard named Victor.

"Boss, you called for me?"

Yang Zhongzhou, seated in the boss's chair, looked up at the burly man before him, pointed to the chair opposite, and smiled, "Sit!"

Once Victor was seated, he continued, "I want to establish a Jushen Security and have you manage it. Do you have confidence?"

A security company didn't require financial management knowledge because he had no intention of taking on external business; it would only be responsible internally.

After all, Colossus Group's main business was resources, which necessitated the deployment of armed forces.

The person in charge only needed strong martial prowess. Of course, they also needed a certain level of management ability, but this would not be difficult for Victor.

The other party was not an ordinary Bodyguard, so he was perfectly capable of filling the role of head of Jushen Security.

Hearing Yang Zhongzhou entrust such a heavy responsibility to him, Victor immediately guaranteed, "Boss, don't worry, I can do it!"

"Hahahaha, excellent. That's the kind of confidence I need. The group is just starting, and there aren't yet places where you're needed. Take advantage of this free time to accelerate the training of a batch of capable warriors. Money is not an issue; loyalty is the most important thing, understand?"

"Understood!"

"Good. For background checks, you can contact Qingmu and his team. I only need the results. As for the Bodyguards, all of them, except those assigned to security posts in the group headquarters building, can be taken by you."

"Oh, and I've already prepared the Jushen Security building for you. It's right next door. You can take your people to take possession of it now."

Victor nodded, stood up, and left.

After the other party left, Yang Zhongzhou rose and walked to the floor-to-ceiling window, looking into the distance.

There were a total of twelve buildings near the Colossus Group headquarters. The tallest was the one he was in, and the shortest was about one hundred meters high.

Of these twelve, three currently belonged to Colossus Group.

His short-term goal was to acquire all twelve of these buildings for Colossus Group, but current funds didn't allow for it, and so many buildings weren't even needed right now.

Therefore, he was not in a hurry.

At the same time!

Wang Qingmu led his people to a small manor, which would be their temporary residence.

It would also be the birthplace of Skynet.
