Film and Television: Bao Zong has finance in his left hand and entertainment in his right.

To Liu Xiaobao's surprise, the woman he was paying attention to actually ranked second.

By this time, all the competitions had ended. After breakfast on the seventh day, Liu Xiaobao had Lei Qiangjun gather everyone together again.

Then, in front of everyone, Liu Xiaobao stepped to the front and began to publicly assign tasks to everyone.

Liu Xiaobao, holding a microphone, smiled as he looked at the more than 14,000 people in front of him and slowly began to speak.

"Our Tianbao Group's first selection competition has ended. Some people did well, and some did not. Those who did not do well should not feel embarrassed. It's not that you are weak, but that your opponents were too strong. Of course, you should not be too discouraged. Our group will hold such a selection competition every year in the future, and everyone can continue to sign up to participate."

As soon as Liu Xiaobao finished speaking, the veterans who had been eliminated in the first round were filled with renewed fighting spirit.

Liu Xiaobao was very pleased to realize this, thinking to himself that the soldiers of his motherland were indeed becoming more and more courageous in battle.

So Liu Xiaobao didn't say anything more inspiring, and then began to fulfill his promise.

"Now, I will announce your job assignments. First, Lei Qiangjun, please step forward!"

Lei Qiangjun strode forward, stood at attention, and loudly replied, "Present!"

Liu Xiaobao looked at Lei Qiangjun and said, "Starting today, I officially appoint you as the general manager of Tianbao Security Company, responsible for the recruitment, training, selection, and personnel allocation of the entire Tianbao Security Company."

Lei Qiangjun was stunned for a moment before answering loudly, "Yes, Boss Bao! I guarantee the mission will be completed!"

Liu Xiaobao nodded in satisfaction, then spoke to the others.

"Those who are eliminated in the first round of selection will be assigned to various parts of the country to be responsible for the security of the company's stores. Our group currently has restaurants and warehouses all over the country. You can report to General Manager Lei later where you want to work and follow his assignment."

At this point, Liu Xiaobao noticed the worry in everyone's eyes. He immediately understood what they were worried about and added:

"Of course, the first time may not be able to satisfy everyone's wishes and allow them to work closer to their hometowns, but soon our group will open jewelry stores and brand stores all over the country, and you can apply for transfers at that time. As for salary and benefits, I can tell you directly here that the average worker and civil servant in China earns about 180 to 240 yuan a month. I will give you a salary of 350 yuan a month, and I only hope that you can safeguard the group's business!"

Everyone knew that Liu Xiaobao was right. In those days, the average worker's salary was only around 200-683 yuan, while the salary of a civil servant was even lower, only around 180-200 yuan.

So when they heard Liu Xiaobao promise them a monthly salary of 350 yuan, everyone was overjoyed. This would be enough for their families to live a good life.

Seeing the change in everyone's expressions, Liu Xiaobao smiled with satisfaction, and then announced a series of messages that could inspire these people.

"The 42 people who were eliminated in the second round of selection will be appointed as heads of various provinces to assist General Manager Lei in managing the placement of personnel and work assignments in various regions. Their monthly salary is 2,000 yuan."

"The top 100 who advance, excluding the top 10, will all be included in the elite team of Tianbao Security Company, responsible for protecting the senior management of Tianbao Group, with a monthly salary of 5,000 yuan."

"The top ten will become my bodyguards or the bodyguards of my family members. The tenth place will receive a monthly salary of 10,000 yuan, the ninth place will receive 20,000 yuan per month, and so on. For each place higher, the monthly salary will increase by 10,000 yuan."

As Liu Xiaobao said, the number one earns a monthly salary of 100,000, and the top three earn a million a year!

What did an annual salary of one million mean in 1994?

Seeing the shocked expressions on the faces of the more than 14,000 people below the stage, Liu Xiaobao was extremely satisfied.

He wants everyone to know how the strongest are treated, so that everyone will be more motivated to become stronger.

After everyone's tasks were assigned, Liu Xiaobao did not interfere with the specific personnel allocation.

After the conference, Liu Xiaobao called Lei Qiangjun to him and Hu Ruoling.

First, in front of Lei Qiangjun, Liu Xiaobao called Lingzi and Xiao Ningbo to inform them that he would be sending security personnel to various branches and freight stations. Then, he handed over the follow-up trivial matters to Lei Qiangjun.

Liu Xiaobao left the contact information of Lingzi, Xiao Ningbo, Li Li, He Chaoqiong, and Li Jiaxin with Lei Qiangjun, asking Lei Qiangjun to contact them himself and make specific personnel assignments.

After all, in addition to the 'Night Tokyo' stores and freight warehouses in various locations, Tianbao Group also has group buildings in Beijing, Shanghai, and Hong Kong, as well as 'Baofu' jewelry stores and factories, which also require security arrangements.

So even though Tianbao Security Company recruited more than 14,000 people this time, once they were assigned to different positions, there were not only no idle personnel, but there were even more than enough!

Therefore, after arranging the personnel allocation, Liu Xiaobao discussed with Lei Qiangjun what the security company should do next.

First, the security company needs to continue recruiting retired soldiers. Then, it needs to buy a piece of land in the suburbs to build a training base for the future employees' accommodation and training.

The security company's headquarters are located in the Beijing Tianbao Group building, and related expenses require approval from the group's headquarters.

After formulating the general task plan for Tianbao Security Company, Liu Xiaobao took Hu Ruoling and the top ten contestants of this year's selection competition back to the courtyard house in Beijing.

For the past week, Liu Xiaobao and Hu Ruoling had been staying at a campsite in the suburbs to witness the selection competition. Now that they were back in the courtyard, they immediately felt extremely at ease and comfortable.

After everyone finished bathing, Liu Xiaobao treated Hu Ruoling to a delicious meal before gathering the top ten strongest individuals in the courtyard.

Looking at the top ten experts standing straight in the courtyard, Liu Xiaobao was very satisfied. At this moment, Liu Xiaobao also caught a glimpse of Long Jiu behind Hu Ruoling, and a flash of inspiration struck him.

He didn't ask for the names of these ten top experts, but instead addressed them directly.

"From today onwards, you will no longer have your own names, only code names. Today I will name you all with the character 'Tian' (天), and from now on you will belong directly to the Tian bodyguard group. Then, according to your ranking order, your names and code names will be from Tianyi (天一) to Tianshi (天十). Do you understand?"

"Yes, Boss Bao!" the ten powerful figures answered in unison.

At this moment, Long Jiu scoffed softly behind Hu Ruoling: "Tch, just copying our Dragon Hall and Phoenix Palace!"

Long Jiu said that the muttering was very soft, and even Hu Ruoling in front of her couldn't hear it clearly, but Liu Xiaobao's hearing had been enhanced at this moment, and he heard Long Jiu's muttering very clearly.

At this point, Liu Xiaobao finally learned the real names of the Dragon and Phoenix groups: they were called 'Dragon Hall' and 'Phoenix Palace'.

After Liu Xiaobao sensed the contempt in Long Jiu's words, he couldn't help but have an idea. He turned to Long Jiu and asked, "Long Jiu, would you be interested in sparring with me, a member of the Heavenly Bodyguard Team?"

Long Jiu was taken aback for a moment, then glanced at the ten members of the Heavenly Bodyguard Group. She became interested: "Alright! But they won't be a match for me if they come at me one by one. How about we let them all come at me at once?"

In the past, Liu Xiaobao might have thought Long Jiu was bragging, but now that he has become a martial artist, Liu Xiaobao no longer thinks that Long Jiu is being arrogant.

Moreover, Liu Xiaobao also wanted to test the difference in strength between these military experts and martial artists, which is why he made such a suggestion to Long Jiu.

So Liu Xiaobao didn't hesitate at all and replied to Long Jiu with a smile, "Alright, since you're so confident, I'll grant your wish!"

After saying that, Liu Xiaobao turned to the ten members of the Heavenly Guard Group and said, "You ten, don't be unconvinced. Long Jiu is a martial artist. Just come at me all at once, and give it your all. If you can defeat Long Jiu, I will reward you handsomely!"

The ten bodyguards of the Heavenly Guard exchanged glances and nodded to each other. Then, as Long Jiu stepped forward, they tacitly surrounded him.

Long Jiu didn't pay attention to the movements of the ten members of the Tianzi bodyguard group. She just smiled faintly and then launched an attack on Tian Ba ​​first.

Although the ten members of the Heavenly Bodyguard Group were outstanding among the retired soldiers and possessed genuine strength, they were still far inferior to a martial artist like Long Jiu.

Tian Ba ​​clearly saw Long Jiu's attack, but his body didn't have time to react before Long Jiu kicked him away with a whip kick.

Seeing this, the other nine members of the ten-member bodyguard team were all shocked, but they also became more serious and cautious.

Instead of passively waiting for Long Jiu to launch an attack, they turned the tables and launched an attack on Long Jiu simultaneously.

bang...

Snapped……

Almost instantly, Long Jiu was surrounded by the attacks of the nine members of the Tianzi bodyguard group, but Long Jiu still managed to deflect their attacks one by one and even forced all nine of them back.

However, Long Jiu did not gain any advantage from this, because after being forced back, the nine members of the Tianzi bodyguard group immediately launched a second attack, keeping Long Jiu busy dealing with the second wave of attacks.

As the saying goes, when masters clash, the situation changes in an instant.

In an instant, the courtyard was filled with the whooshing sound of fists and the heavy shadows of feet, making it dazzling to behold.

In the blink of an eye, a minute had passed. By this time, Liu Xiaobao had lost count of how many moves Long Jiu and the nine members of the Tianzi bodyguard group had exchanged. Three more members of the Tianzi bodyguard group had been knocked out of the game by Long Jiu.

Thirty seconds later, two more members of the Tianzi bodyguard team were eliminated (Wang Qianhao).

Twenty seconds later, two more members of the Tianzi bodyguard team were eliminated, leaving only Tianyi and Tianer remaining in the team.

Tian Er was the only retired female soldier who made it into the top ten of the selection competition. Her left hand was hanging down at this moment, obviously her left hand had been broken in the previous fight.

However, she did not withdraw from the battlefield, but continued to stand on the field.

Tianyi was also not feeling well; his right leg was limping at this time, which meant that his right leg was also injured.

Long Jiu was no longer as relaxed as she had been at the beginning. Her breathing had become much more rapid, clearly indicating that she had also expended a lot of energy in the previous fight.

Just then, Tianyi called out to Tianer, "Neighbor."

"I'll attack the upper body, you attack the lower body, let's make our move!"

Without the slightest hesitation, Tian Er immediately followed Tian Yi's instructions and launched a kick at Long Jiu's lower body.

Seeing Tian Er's kick coming, Long Jiu immediately raised his leg to block.

Long Jiu could only block, but she didn't have time to counterattack, because Tian Yi's fist had already reached Long Jiu's face. Long Jiu had to deal with Tian Yi's attack, otherwise she would be hit by Tian Yi.

Although Tian Er's left hand was broken and Tian Yi's right foot was injured, one of them could still use his foot and the other could still use his hand, and their offensive was not much slower than before.

The two exchanged blows, punching and kicking each other, and in the blink of an eye, they had exchanged more than a dozen moves.

Liu Xiaobao then understood that although Long Jiu was temporarily in the lead, it wasn't because the ten members of the Tianzi bodyguard group were far weaker than Long Jiu, but because Long Jiu was very familiar with the combat techniques used in the military, which gave him a significant advantage.

Often, as soon as Tianyi and Tianer make their move, Long Jiu has already anticipated their attack angle and method.

On the other hand, Tianyi and Tianer were unfamiliar with Long Jiu's martial arts moves, so they were caught off guard whenever Long Jiu attacked.

Fortunately, Tianyi and Tianer reacted quickly enough and avoided Long Jiu 683's attack with only minor injuries.

However, a fight is ultimately a matter of mutual confrontation. Even though Tianyi and Tianer's true strength was not much worse than Long Jiu's, a slight difference is still a difference.

So, although it appeared that the two sides were evenly matched, in reality, after each exchange, Tianyi and Tian'er exerted more effort than Longjiu. The further the fight progressed, the greater Tianyi and Tian'er's disadvantage became.

After exchanging more than thirty moves, Long Jiu dodged one of Tian Yi and Tian Er's attacks and then suddenly unleashed a move called "Double Dragons Emerging from the Sea," sending both Tian Yi and Tian Er flying and rendering them unable to fight.

In the end, Tianyi and Tianer were defeated by Long Jiu.

Liu Xiaobao clapped, but he wasn't clapping for Long Jiu; he was clapping for the Tianzi bodyguard team.
