Reborn as a Police Officer in India

Chapter 161: Refund? No
"Tell me quickly, I really want to hear what the big news is." Fia was suddenly full of energy.

She was actually a little depressed during this period.

After all, she still suffered a lot of setbacks. She was forced to resign and started her own business, but was restricted by her family, including frozen funds, etc.

So she needed a big piece of news to vent her feelings.

She is going to fire the first shot of the Truth News Company.

This first shot must be shocking enough to trigger big news that attracts the attention of the whole country.

"I wonder if you have ever heard of a living person being given a death certificate?" asked Rawdon.

Feiya was stunned for a moment and said, "There is such a thing. It has been reported in the news."

The news did report it, but unfortunately, there was no follow-up after the report, and no one took it seriously at all.

"Is this big news?" Fia frowned.

In her opinion, such news should not count.

After all, it's not some special news, and it's been reported in newspapers before.

"That depends on how you do it." Rotun said with a smile.

"Director, I would like to ask for your advice." Fia realized that Roton must have some good ideas, and she was very interested.

"My parents recently returned to their hometown, a rural area in Gujarat..." Luoton told Fia in detail what his father had encountered.

"I didn't expect your father would encounter such a thing." Feiya said after listening, "I know this matter is difficult to handle. Almost no one can successfully change the death certificate."

"That's the crux of the matter," Rawdon said with a smile. "Everyone knows this is wrong. The person is still alive, so why can't the death certificate be changed? Is it the government that's unwilling? Why not? Is it because the procedures are cumbersome and troublesome?"

"That's what they said," Fia replied. "It's indeed true. Who doesn't know how inefficient the government is? Who knows how long it will take to complete the change process?"

"No, those are just excuses," Rawdon said. "The real problem is that the officials who issue the death certificates are taking bribes."

"I know that," Fia said with a smile. "Government officials are known for their ability to take bribes. It's an unspoken rule. Normally, no one investigates. If they do, they'll just return the money. The bribes aren't that big. Who would make a big fuss over something as trivial as this?"

Having said that, Fia narrowed her eyes and smiled meaningfully at Roton.

Roden was so preoccupied with this matter that he didn't notice Fia's slightly strange look. Instead, he continued, "You think it's too simple. This can't be solved by just returning the money. It's not that easy."

"Can't you just refund the money?" Fia asked.

In her opinion, it is a procedural issue that is too cumbersome and complicated, which is why the government is unwilling to do this.

After all, in the government's view, there are actually not many people who have been issued death certificates.

Are there tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of these people?
Even if there are only a few hundred thousand people, it really doesn't mean much to the government in the whole country.

Just look at how many rape cases occur every year. If people turn a blind eye to such heinous crimes, how can they care about things like death certificates?

A dead person is nothing, let alone a living person. Why go through all the trouble of changing the certificate?
"Return the money? Of course not," Rotun laughed. "Those who paid the bribes can seize the deceased's land and other property because they have the death certificate. There are many people involved. If a commotion breaks out, it will be difficult for government officials to suppress it. Many of these people have connections in the local area, and the relevant government officials may not dare to offend them."

Fia was silent. She immediately realized that her previous thoughts were indeed a bit superficial.

Indeed, it is the obstruction of these vested interests.

As Roton said, issuing these death certificates is not a difficult bribe and can be done by many low-level government officials.

Logically speaking, such a small matter is nothing and can be changed at any time.

But with this change, the person who was legally dead is now alive, and the things he previously owned naturally still belong to him.

How can the powerful people who monopolize these benefits agree to this?

So such a small thing becomes complicated.

As I said, those who are issued death certificates are often the poor, and no one cares about these people, so everyone knows about this, but no one is trying to change it.

Are the poor in India human beings?
In the eyes of these powerful people, they are no different from animals.

"I think if this thing spreads widely, coupled with the fact that we're currently experiencing intense political conflict, it could have a nationwide impact," said Roton. "After all, this kind of thing happens all over the country; it's not just an isolated incident, and it could spread quickly."

"I've made up my mind about this news," Feiya said with a firm face. "You're right. We should take this opportunity to make a big deal out of this. Otherwise, this matter will be very difficult to handle."

"My only worry now is that the ruling party in Gujarat is the BJP, which is the largest opposition party. You have already offended the ruling Congress Party, and you may offend the BJP next, thus offending the first and second largest parties in the country at once," Luoton sighed.

"Everyone says I'm a heroine in the news industry. If I don't have this little courage, what kind of heroine am I?" Fia laughed. "Besides, I'll report the truth and won't deliberately smear anyone. Even if they're unhappy, what can they do to me?"

Roton also smiled, fearing that the People's Party would suppress Fia. If that happened, the road ahead for the Real News Company would be difficult.

Roton certainly didn't want to see this scene.

But this time is indeed a good opportunity for Fia, a good time for her to display her talents and expand her influence.

Risks and opportunities coexist.

"Actually, I think you're being too pessimistic," Fia said. "Gujarat's ruling government is quite capable. Its economic growth has consistently ranked first among all states in the country for years, and it's made significant achievements in both the economy and other areas. Such leaders are bold and have implemented reforms within the state that other states lack. Our reporting of this matter is a bad habit in many states, and it's wrong. Shouldn't this be reformed? Who knows, they might even be grateful to me."

Roton is not so optimistic about Fia's self-satisfaction.

The old immortal is a man of great courage and is definitely a heroic figure.

This kind of person is decisive in killing and is not easy to talk to.

For example, when he was the Chief Minister of Gujarat, a conflict broke out between Hindus and Muslims in Gujarat. He completely sided with Hindus and suppressed Islam, causing a tragedy with tens of thousands of casualties. His cruelty was so severe that even the United States issued sanctions against him.

It was only after he became prime minister that the United States lifted its sanctions on him.

After all, given India's size and the need to win over the United States, it is impossible to impose sanctions on the country's leaders.

Before, Laoxian was just the supreme leader of a state, so he was sanctioned.

In fact, this so-called sanction is nothing more than not welcoming the old man to the United States, and it does not actually cause any substantial harm to him.

Of course, this would give the domestic opposition some excuses to attack him.

Unfortunately, Lao Xian later promoted Hindu populism, which made the BJP's support rate soar and reach its peak, and later suppressed the Congress Party to the point that it was almost suffocating.

But this is not an excuse that can defeat him.

After all, Hinduism is the largest religion in India, with nearly 10 billion believers. As long as the Hindus are won over, the votes will be enough for the BJP to become the boss.

The Islamic population is actually quite large, at 2 million, but it is far behind the Hindu population.

In India's electoral system, basically everyone has the right to vote, which means that whoever wins over Hinduism and relies on a large population base will be invincible.

Of course, Roton also felt that a charismatic figure like Laoxian wouldn't bother Fia over such a trivial matter. After all, this matter was different from the one targeting Ashok.

One is aimed at the common bad habits among the people, and the other is directly aimed at politicians, especially the chief minister, the highest official in a state.

If Fia directly targets Laoxian, she will definitely seek revenge.

Therefore, this matter will not necessarily offend the People's Party, and some specific operations are still needed.

"In that case, what are your plans next?" asked Rotten.

"How about I use your father's case as a starting point?" Feiya asked. "If you feel it's inappropriate and don't want him to appear in public, I can find someone else."

"Then let's talk about my father," Rawdon said with a smile. "After all, this is the truth, not a fabrication. I'll have him cooperate with your interview."

"Thanks." Fia smiled.

"You're too polite. We don't need to discuss this," Rotten laughed. "And I think we can add some details to this matter, showing everyone what life will be like for the person who received the death certificate. If it's someone with a wicked heart, it would be a disaster for ordinary people."

"What do you want to do?" Fia asked curiously.

"I think this~~"

Fia put her ear close to Rotten.

Roton only felt that the fragrance of Fia's body was stronger, and her white neck and beautiful little ears were close at hand.

I really have the urge to take a bite.

However, Roton still restrained himself. Fia was not Itas and Lisa, and the two of them were just pure friends now.

So he suppressed the evil thoughts in his heart and whispered his plan to Fia.

"Is this okay?" After hearing this, Fia's eyes lit up and her face was full of excitement.

Although she asked this question, Fia agreed with Rotten's plan in her heart.

This will add a lot of interesting elements to the interview process, making the news more attractive and exposing more government scandals.

This is what Fia wants to do. This time, she not only wants to solve the death certificate issue, but also wants to supervise and criticize the government's daily work practices.

"That's definitely no problem." Rotten said with a smile.

"Okay, I'll get ready. No, I'll immediately send Yunando to Gujarat to reunite with your father," Feiya said, rubbing her hands eagerly. "Also, we need to investigate related cases in Maharashtra. We can only investigate the other nearby states. Time is too tight, and we don't have enough manpower. It's really terrible. But these are enough. The other states are almost the same. What do you think, Rawdon?"

"Haha~~" Luo Dun laughed and said, "I don't really understand these. I think you can definitely solve them."

"Well, we'll be busy from now on," Fia said with a smile. "Remember to introduce your wealthy friends here quickly. I need to expand the company, hire more employees, equip it with various vehicles and equipment, and so on. Otherwise, how can we meet the deadline? Alas, for now, they'll have to use public transportation."

Feiya is currently short of funds and the company does not even have its own vehicles.

When employees go out for interviews or news searches, they usually take public transportation, and only take a taxi if it's urgent.

These expenses are naturally reimbursed by the company.

Every penny saved is a penny earned.

But in this case, it will definitely not be as fast as other news media. News is all about speed. Whoever arrives first and reports first will have the upper hand.

"Don't worry, I'll take care of it right away." Rotun said with a smile.

After saying that, Rotten took out an exquisite box and handed it to Fia.

"What?" Fia asked.

"It's for you."

When Fia opened it, she saw a pair of gold earrings inside, which were very novel and exquisite in style.

Gold itself doesn't weigh that much, after all, they are earrings, but if you take the workmanship into account, the price will be much higher.

Seeing Fia looking at him with some confusion, Luo Dun couldn't help but explain with a smile: "This is to thank you. You helped me a lot when I was at All India Television."

"It seems so." Feiya smiled slightly and said, "Okay, I accept your kindness."

Hearing this, Rotten also laughed.

"But~~it doesn't seem appropriate for you to give these as gifts, right?" Fia said, staring at Rotten and smiling. "Usually, gifts like these are only given between lovers."

"Ah? I'm sorry for being so abrupt." Rawdon said hastily, "Then I'll change it for you."

"Forget it, this is it." Feiya said with a grin, "I'm short of money right now. If I ever run out of money, this is made of gold and I can sell it for money."

"It's yours, you can do whatever you want with it." Rotten said with a smile.

After leaving Fia, Roton called Sori Goyal.

Regarding the investment in Truth News Company, Rotun used the name of Sori.

After all, Roton's own money came from illegal sources, so it was not easy for him to invest in Fia so openly.

Sori is very busy now. He has taken over a lot of business in Harreg Township, especially the transportation from the coal mine. Even a small part of it is enough to make him a fortune.

It can be said that the profit from coal transportation alone was more than that from all his previous businesses combined.

This was the benefit that Rotun brought him, and he was very grateful to Rotun.

Of course, his main focus now is on establishing the Harleg Shencha Company.

Sori personally verified Lao Yoda's tea.

The effect after drinking it is really great.

That night he couldn't hold back and found three women to interact with. When he woke up the next day he felt extremely energetic, without any feeling of fatigue or discomfort.

Sori knew very well that this tea was absolutely the best for men, and no man could resist such temptation.

Especially for older men, the market demand is absolutely huge.

So he is very dedicated to this project.

He is full of expectations for Shencha Company, and the project's ability to make money in the future will definitely be terrifying.
