Chapter 19 Bodyguards
On a sunny morning, Joseph said goodbye to his wife and drove to the company. After retreating from the company's combat department yesterday, he joined the security department and had his first customer.
He has been a mercenary for several years, and has fought many wars over the years, and his hands are covered in blood. Although he does not feel any guilt, the battlefield changes rapidly and any accidents may happen. Maybe he will die in one action.
He couldn't die so early, and his wife and two children had to take care of him. In the end, he decided not to be a mercenary and transferred to the security department to work as a bodyguard. Although he earned a lot when he was not a mercenary, his working environment was completely incomparable.
Yesterday, a client chose him when he transferred to the department. This was mainly because of his excellent resume, special forces, and many big and small battles. He was also because of his usual low-key behavior and a calm and reliable personality.
However, after reading the client information, he hesitated a little because Andy he wanted to protect was too young. Recently, there have been too many reports about Andy. He was worried that the rebellion of young people and the act of venting hormones everywhere would cause a lot of trouble to the work.
Especially Andy is still a young billionaire and cannot understand his temper yet. Anyway, his work will not be simple and easy.
When he was in a turmoil, the department manager said a word reminded him, "The client is a famous writer..." Since he is a writer, his work scope has been greatly reduced. He will not always go on business trips. Don't writers like to stay at home? Even if he is on a business trip, it should be a short time. In this way, he can take good care of his family. So he agreed and will work with another bodyguard to protect Andy Smith's safety.
Andy's bodyguards were all selected by Carl. Age, qualifications and family were the primary conditions for his selection. Young, low-qualified, bachelor, and poor-looking all of them. According to Andy's previous temperament, those who protect him must be calm and patient. After comprehensive consideration, they finally chose Joseph, who has rich practical experience and Kenny, who has protected many movie stars.
After getting the equipment and documents from the company, Joseph and Kenny drove to Mockingbirds Copyright Company to meet with Carl.
When Andy met them, she was playing sandbags indiscriminately, just sweating, and the sandbags were pounding with his huge force. Joseph and Kenny looked at each other and saw it in the eyes of each other. The power shown by Andy was very amazing, no worse than the power of the soldiers, such as the soldiers. It was simply incredible. After all, they had been able to make their strength stronger after years of systematic training.
Andy is so young, and the power displayed by her body is simply unreasonable. Unless she is born with divine power, thinking of this possibility, Joseph and Kenny's eyes trembled, and looked at Andy Smith who was holding the sandbag and stopping to exercise with envy.
"Andy, these two are responsible for your safety from today." Carl handed the towel to Andy and introduced, "This is Joseph, who is from a special forces and has rich practical experience. This one is Kenny, who has worked as a bodyguard for Cage and Tomco, and has a lot of experience."
Andy quickly wiped off the sweat stains on his hands with a towel, and walked up to shake hands with the two of them with a smile, "Hello, two of you, I am Andy Smith, I'll ask you for my safety in the future. If you have any suggestions in the future, I will directly tell me that I will try my best to cooperate with your work."
Joseph and Kenny looked at each other secretly. Andy gave the two a good impression. As for their temper and personality, this needs to be observed in the future. "Hello Mr. Smith, I am Joseph, I am Kenny, please rest assured, we will protect your safety."
"Haha, I'll bother you, okay, I'll take you to get familiar with the house first. I usually write novels at home most of the time, but recently there are many journalists and some fans outside. Carl thinks I should strengthen security. I also have this idea. Prevent problems before they happen. You are experts in this regard. You can tell me what you need, what you need." From the moment the media exposed his assets, Andy knew that he needed someone to protect him. He would not be stupid and clamor for freedom and not bodyguards. His happy life has just begun, and he doesn't want to be killed easily.
Joseph is an offensive expert and Kenny is a defensive expert. He has been observing and considering the security of Andy's villa when he is outside. For them, this is a familiar matter and is not troublesome.
"In addition to the indoor security system, I suggest you install infrared and thermal sensors on the periphery, and monitor all trees near the street. Of course, it is best to have two more dogs." Joseph suggested with a serious face.
Andy felt that he was full of black lines now. Do you want to install machine guns on both sides of the door? He looked at Kenny with a ridiculous look on his face and nodded in agreement with Joseph's suggestion, and hurriedly said, "Hi, guys, it's not that serious, right?"
"Boss, although the security in the rich areas is good, your villa does not have courtyard wall protection. Only the low fence cannot guarantee that strangers can enter. We need to fully control all the surrounding situation." Joseph explained patiently to Andy.
"I...oh, okay, you two are discussing it. You can buy whatever you need, listen to yours." Andy shrugged helplessly. For his own safety, he should listen to the experts.
Joseph nodded seriously and pulled Kenny to the side to discuss purchasing the equipment. Carl touched the bald head, very satisfied with the professional qualities of the two bodyguards, so that he could rest assured of Andy's safety issues.
"Okay Andy, just leave the safety issues to them. Are we going to San Francisco? Nelson has called and destroyed it. The game company has basically agreed. Now I'll wait for you to sign and pay."
"GOOD! That's great, there's nothing to prepare. Let's go to the airport right away and leave now!" Andy looked excited. The game company's matter was finally solved. He didn't want to wait any longer. Some creativity should be produced earlier, the better. Isn't the advantage he has the time advantage?
Carl was dragged out of the house by Andy, and under the protection of the giant man Joseph, he squeezed out the door surrounded by paparazzi and got into the business car.
Looking at the scene of paparazzi constantly knocking on the car window and competing for each other to take photos, Andy felt the distress of being a star and the vanity in his heart for the first time. He seemed to like this feeling of being sought after.
"Haha, these paparazzi are really crazy. Andy, you are the hottest news point now. By the way, there are a few talk shows that you hope you can participate. Are you interested?" Carl likes this feeling of being sought after. Although he is not the protagonist, he has some of the credit for the protagonist's success, and more because he likes the joy and satisfaction brought by this success.
"Oh? What programs are there? Are there "Opra Talk Show"? It's not some programs with no ratings, right?" Since the windows of the business car did not have a special car film, it could not stop the camera shooting, Andy had to keep his image with a charming smile while asking jokingly.
"Ahem......" Carl, who seemed to be choking by something, turned his head aside and coughed a few times, not looking at Andy's face, afraid of embarrassing him.
"What's wrong? Is there any problem?" After the business car rushed out of the paparazzi's encirclement and accelerated to throw away all the reporters, Andy relaxed, looked at Carl with a strange expression, and asked with a confused look on his face.
"You really don't remember?" Carl seemed to have thought of something, his expression became more and more strange, and the fat on his face twitched a little.
"What do you remember? Tell me quickly!" Andy asked in anger.
"Actually, it's nothing. You were often photographed drunk and messing around with messy women during that time. At a book club, Oprah once publicly criticized you, saying that you were willing..." The more Carl said, the lower his voice seemed to not want Andy to feel embarrassed, and did not continue talking.
"Ha, is that happening? Why don't I remember?" Andy laughed dryly and touched his nose awkwardly.
"If you don't remember, forget it, just pretend it didn't happen. Even if she didn't invite you, NBC's "Saturday Night Live" and CBS's "Allen Show" both sent invitations. I think you should go. After all, we are partners with NBC, and CBS is also negotiating with our company about the copyright of "If You Are the One". They are very sincere." Carl hurriedly changed the topic, a trace of cunning flashed in his eyes, and he was persuading him with a slutty mouth.
"Ha, let me be a music guest at night scene? You can participate in the Allen Show." Andy didn't expect that these two shows would invite him. He liked Allen Show very much in his previous life. He didn't expect that he could be invited to the show now. It would be fake to say that he was not excited. "Saturday Night Live" is called the number one variety show in the United States. I'm embarrassed to say that he is a person in the entertainment industry before he hasn't appeared on the show.
"Did you agree? That's great, I thought you were going to make an excuse to push it again." Carl was a little surprised to hear Andy agree to appear on the show.
"Tsk, what's so surprising about this? Since things have developed to this level, it would be too fake if I'm still squeamish. Moreover, I like this kind of relaxed show." Andy gave Carl a blank look and said angrily.
"Haha, it's already like this. You should increase your exposure. Well, after the show, you can sign a contract with Universal Records to release records. At that time, the Hunger Games will be released immediately after the publication, and then the record will be released, and then the hype will be around to promote it. Wow, sales will definitely increase greatly by then, and cute American knives will fly into our pockets one after another!" Carl became more and more excited as he spoke. The fat on his face kept shaking, and his eyes were filled with greed and staring at Andy, as if Andy was a delicious piece of cheese and wanted to swallow it in one bite.
"Damn it! What Universal Records? What did you do with your fat man on your back? Tell me clearly! You're running around and promoting it? Why don't you die!"
