Hong Kong variety show: I Am a Tycoon
Chapter 518 Anti-Corruption Storm
The strangest thing was that the person staring at him even seemed to have some malice.
Chen Jiajun immediately became curious.
Given his connection to his hometown and his current status, how could anyone dare to keep an eye on him like this? Did they have a grudge against him?
Thinking of this, Chen Jiajun followed the gaze.
Although the other person quickly looked away, Chen Jiajun still managed to get a clear look at the guy's face.
He then asked the Chinese businessman beside him, "Who is that guy?"
The Chinese businessman looked at Chen Jiajun pointing at the man and said with a smile, "Oh, Attorney Hu, he's quite famous in the legal profession lately, specializing in handling commercial cases!"
Upon hearing the Chinese businessman's introduction, Chen Jiajun silently memorized the man's appearance, intending to go back and have someone investigate.
In his memory, he certainly hadn't offended such a guy.
But the other party had their eyes on him, which immediately piqued Chen Jiajun's interest.
While chatting and laughing with a few people from the Chinese Chamber of Commerce, the head of the Hong Kong Monetary Authority came over.
"Mr. Chen, I've been looking for you for ages!" The Chief Executive of the Hong Kong Monetary Authority smiled and extended his hand to shake hands with Chen Jiajun.
Chan Ka-Chun's plan saved the Hong Kong SAR government from being crushed by Soros and even made the government a profit, so naturally, it had to make a gesture.
Chen Jiajun smiled and said, "You flatter me. I just did what I was supposed to do!"
The bureau chief said with a smile, "Not everyone has Mr. Chen's awareness. Let's take a picture together!"
Faced with the other party's enthusiasm, Chen Jiajun was reluctantly dragged over to take a photo.
It's clear from his position that Chen Jiajun is in the absolute center among all the businessmen.
After the photo was taken, several officials from the Hong Kong Monetary Authority and the Securities and Futures Commission approached Chen Jiajun: "This is Xu Huaijing, the chairman of the Caring Foundation. I probably don't need to introduce Mr. Chen, do I?"
Xu Huaijing smiled, shook hands with Chen Jiajun, and said, "Who in Hong Kong doesn't know Mr. Chen's name?"
Chen Jiajun looked at Chairman Xu with amusement. If he remembered correctly, Xu had been partly responsible for that malicious look earlier.
After the two sides exchanged greetings, the Chief Executive of the Hong Kong Monetary Authority spoke directly: "I heard that Mr. Chan has a Hung Hing Charitable Foundation under his control?"
“That’s right!” Chen Jiajun nodded.
The two men smiled and said, "Mr. Chen, would you be interested in working on the government's 15 billion dollar care fund?"
"Wow, that's quite a generous offer!" Chen Jiajun said with some surprise.
The Chief Executive of the Hong Kong Monetary Authority said with a smile, "Since the Hong Kong SAR government has made money, it should set aside a portion of the funds to improve the living conditions of Hong Kong citizens!"
However, Chen Jiajun has no intention of taking over the HK$15 billion care fund.
This sum of money was too troublesome and simply beyond the capabilities of the Hung Hing Charitable Foundation under Chan Ka-Chun's control.
Moreover, this matter is quite sensitive for him.
It would be ugly if news of a money-for-power deal came out.
So Chen Jiajun shook his head and said, "I'm sorry, my Hung Hing Charitable Foundation has always been independently operated, and because of limited manpower, I'm afraid the government's HK$15 billion care fund would not be able to be effectively utilized by me!"
Upon hearing Chen Jiajun's direct refusal, the people present all showed expressions of surprise.
However, he quickly came to terms with it. After all, Chen Jiajun had earned as much as the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region government in this battle, and taking over this care fund would inevitably invite criticism.
However, Xu Huaijing's eyes revealed a look of surprise, clearly not expecting that Chen Jiajun would refuse even the money offered to him.
Chen Jiajun refused, and they couldn't force him, so they could only exchange a few pleasantries and then give up.
This made Xu Huaijing very happy, and he immediately left with the two big shots.
However, Chen Jiajun looked at Xu Huaijing's retreating figure and smiled knowingly.
It is clear that Xu Huaijing, the chairman of this government care fund, is definitely problematic.
However, without evidence, Chen Jiajun never said much. After returning home, he simply instructed his intelligence personnel to bring him the information on the two men, the more detailed the better.
……
The next morning, Chen Jiajun had their files on his desk.
They all looked quite ordinary, with nothing strange about them.
But the more this happened, the more suspicious Chen Jiajun became.
Xu Huaijing, in particular, was so happy when he heard that he was giving up the operation of the care fund that he almost jumped for joy.
Clearly, these people intend to do something underhanded with the care fund.
This government-led 15 billion dollar fund is incredibly lucrative.
Even a small amount could be a fortune; it would be a lie to say no one would be tempted.
So Chen Jiajun directly summoned Silva, intending to have him personally check out the situation.
Chen Jiajun is certain of one thing: there must be someone behind Xu Huaijing and Hu Zhiyong.
Otherwise, it would be a pipe dream for the two of them to think they could get money from the care fund.
After taking on the task, Silva led his men to investigate.
Hong Kong is much more convenient than America, after all, it is one of Chen Jiajun's bases.
And it's just a matter of investigating a few chairpersons of lawyer foundations; it couldn't be simpler.
After handing the matter over to Silva, Chen Jiajun planned to turn on the TV to see what the latest news was.
I just switched to the news channel and saw a big news story.
Lo Tak-yung, a well-known accountant in Hong Kong and hailed as the "godfather of Hong Kong's accounting industry," has been implicated in a money laundering case.
And the case has been opened for investigation by the Commercial Crime Bureau of the police.
Chen Jiajun had heard of Luo Deyong's name. In fact, his chief accountant, Zhuo Yu, was Luo Deyong's disciple and grand-disciple.
……
At this moment, in an office building in Central.
A large group of police officers burst in, flashing their badges at the receptionist: "Police, please block the elevators for us, leaving only one open so we can go up to the 34th floor! Thank you!"
The receptionist, not daring to delay, immediately ordered her staff, "Close the elevator!"
After sealing off the elevator, a group of police officers went directly to the 34th floor, to the Luo Deyong Accounting Firm.
This operation was carried out by the Commercial Crime Bureau.
The person in charge was Wong Man-bun, a rising star in the police force who was promoted to superintendent at the young age of 32.
Although he is a little inferior to Li Wenbin, not everyone can be compared to Li Wenbin.
Huang Wenbin truly deserves the title of "rising star" in the police force.
Police stormed into Rod Yong's accounting firm and immediately identified themselves: "We are from the Commercial Crime Bureau. This is a court search warrant. Everyone, take your hands off the computer and put them on the table!"
At that moment, upon seeing the police arrive, Luo Deyong immediately returned to his office and locked the door.
This action also attracted the attention of the police.
He immediately rushed to the office door and shouted, "Police, open the door!"
Luo Deyong didn't care about that anymore and quickly deleted the data on the computer.
The police quickly summoned the person in charge and opened Luo Deyong's office. He shouted, "I told you to stop! What are you doing?"
Just then, Huang Wenbin spoke up, "Ahe, have your colleagues move all the computers and files back. I'll handle things here!"
The policeman nodded: "Yes, sir!"
After his subordinates left, only Huang Wenbin and Luo Deyong remained in the office.
Huang Wenbin smiled and said to Luo Deyong, "Mr. Luo, the godfather of Hong Kong's accounting industry! You're quite capable, moving so quickly! But it's no use, what era are we living in now, you can't delete it no matter how hard you try!"
"Don't even mention me taking back our police force; even in Mong Kok or Golden Plaza, anyone can retrieve what you deleted!"
Luo Deyong looked sorrowful, as if he had resigned himself to his fate, and sat silently in his chair.
But at this moment, Huang Wenbin suddenly changed his tone and said, "Unless the entire computer disappears, the judge will be helpless!"
As Huang Wenbin spoke, he opened Luo Deyong's trash can, closed the lid of Luo Deyong's laptop, and threw the entire laptop inside.
Luo Deyong's eyes widened immediately, completely bewildered as to why the policeman in front of him would help him cover up evidence.
Huang Wenbin buttoned up his suit jacket, walked straight out of Luo Deyong's office, and left with his men.
……
The following day, the police were interviewed by the media.
Huang Wenbin stepped forward to give an interview to reporters.
After all, Superintendent Wong Man-bun is quite a figure in the Commercial Crime Bureau of the police force.
Moreover, he has always had a good image with the media, so the police force will naturally send him out.
"Hello, friends from the media!" Huang Wenbin sat down and began the formal interview.
The reporter didn't mince words and asked directly, "Superintendent Wong, after your Commercial Crime Investigation Department investigated the sensational money laundering case involving the Luo & Chen accounting firm, why were the people suddenly released?"
Huang Wenbin smiled and said, "So far, we don't have enough evidence, so there will be no further action!"
"Does this mean that accountant Luo Deyong is innocent?" the reporter asked curiously.
Huang Wenbin said with a smile, "You could say that, but I must reiterate that our Commercial Crime Investigation Bureau will never tolerate any money laundering activities!"
Huang Wenbin handled the reporters smoothly, but one person was unhappy.
That was Chen Zhicai, another person in charge of Luo & Chen Accounting Firm.
The fact that accountant Luo Deyong was helping people launder money was something he prepared the materials to report to the police.
Seeing this situation, he was furious. Since the police were also at fault, he sent the prepared documents to the Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC).
After watching the news on TV in his office, Chen Jiajun immediately noticed something strange.
Logically speaking, the Commercial Crime Bureau should have absolute certainty before applying for a search warrant from the court.
Only then could they lead people directly into Luo Deyong's accounting firm.
Otherwise, given Luo Deyong's extensive network of students and connections, he wouldn't be able to succeed.
Let alone a mere superintendent, even a deputy commissioner personally would likely be in serious trouble.
But the strange thing is that Huang Wenbin led his men directly into Luo Deyong's office, found no evidence, and escaped unscathed, which is very illogical.
If Luo Deyong really has no problems, then the companies that hire him could file a complaint against Huang Wenbin so many times they'd be sick of complaining.
Huang Wenbin's actions even implicated the big bosses behind Luo Deyong.
But strangely, things remained calm.
Luo Deyong is fine, but Huang Wenbin still appears in front of the media.
This situation is quite intriguing.
However, this matter has nothing to do with Chen Jiajun. Guojun Group has its own chief accountant, Zhuo Yu.
Therefore, for some business collaborations, there is no need to go to these expensive large accounting firms.
Chen Jiajun was just watching for fun; he wasn't really the "King of Hong Kong," so he couldn't possibly care about so many things.
……
Chen Jiajun didn't care, but some people did.
For example, there's Luk Chi-lim, the current head of investigation at the Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC).
This guy who once had a falling out with Chen Jiajun is now a powerful figure.
Besides receiving Chen Zhicai's tip-off, he also gained something else from this case.
Early that morning, just as the Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC) opened for business, a very fashionable woman walked in.
How can I help you?
The woman, wearing sunglasses, said directly to the receptionist of the Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC): "I want to report Superintendent Wong Man-bin for accepting bribes!"
The woman's words immediately alarmed Lu Zhilian. This case was already inextricably linked to Huang Wenbin, and now that he heard someone was going to report him, he naturally wouldn't let it go.
Soon, the woman was ushered into the reception room.
After sitting down, the woman took out a photo and handed it to the Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC) officers.
“Look, three days ago, I saw him come back with a bag and mysteriously put it in a hidden compartment in the cabinet! He thought I was asleep, so he went to take a shower. I secretly took it out and looked inside, and there were at least tens of millions in it!”
The woman continued, "He's just a lowly police superintendent, his annual salary is only a million, how could he possibly have ten million! He must have embezzled it!"
The ICAC member nodded and asked, "Ms. Jiang Huiling, what is your relationship with Huang Wenbin?"
"couple."
Are there any problems in your relationship?
"Huang Wenbin is a scoundrel. He changed completely after he became a police superintendent."
At this moment, Lu Zhilian, who was in the observation room, noticed that there was something wrong with Jiang Huiling's face, so he asked Director Lu, who was asking questions, to ask her to take off her sunglasses.
Director Lu naturally complied. After hesitating for a moment, Jiang Huiling took off her sunglasses, revealing the bruises and scars around her eyes.
Jiang Huiling was even angrier: "Huang Wenbin is not human at all. He gambles and whores all day long! I hired a private investigator to follow him, and when I had solid evidence, he grabbed my hair and slammed my head against the wall! He's a complete scoundrel, even worse than a scoundrel!"
Jiang Huiling appeared very excited and shouted loudly.
The Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC) officials could only try their best to appease him.
Therefore, Lu Zhilian immediately contacted his superior, Yu Hongsheng, an officer of the Independent Commission Against Corruption.
"You want to investigate Huang Wenbin?" Yu Hongsheng seemed somewhat surprised.
Lu Zhilian said calmly, "The prima facie evidence is established."
Yu Hongsheng sighed and said, "Huang Wenbin is the rising star of the police force. You should know that the relationship between our Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC) and the police force has always been very tense. You need to handle this carefully!"
Lu Zhilian immediately laughed: "I plan to invite him back today to assist with the investigation!"
"We'll move out after 3 PM!" Yu Hongsheng instructed.
“Okay, I’ll ask him to come back for coffee at 3:15!” Lu Zhilian readily agreed. (End of Chapter)
