Reboot the heyday

Samsung headquarters building.

After Shen Wencheng signed the document, he came to a separate meeting room. After a special person checked the shielding machine, he started a separate dedicated line call.

"I've already given you the news, but I wonder how the progress is?" Shen Wencheng sat upright on the sofa with a casual expression.

"We have sent personnel to investigate. If, as you said, Mr. Wang, the chairman of the joint board of directors of the Cornerstone Group, really has committed serious money laundering, we will not tolerate it. Even if there is a US background, it will not help if it is a crime in the economic field."

Shen Wencheng said indifferently: "This is natural. With our cooperation, his industry is nothing. Get rid of him quickly. Even if he can't be imprisoned, expel him from South Korea."

"Once the news is confirmed, we will take action immediately. We will inform you then."

After the call ended, Shen Wencheng leisurely poured a glass of champagne as an early celebration. Then he looked at the city view outside the French window and smiled triumphantly.

"Since you don't want to talk, then let's not talk. Do you really think that I can't do anything if you don't cooperate? It's too easy to kill you. After all, we are a small family and can't do these things well."

In the following period, the South Korean police began investigating XB Entertainment and Keystone Industries.

In fact, money laundering is no longer a secret in major financial companies. There are many ways, such as film investment, transferring funds by falsely reporting box office and costs. For example, artist management, yin-yang contracts, circular capital injection. For example, the e-sports and live broadcast industries, using virtual gifts to reward fund pools.

Or even worse, it could be a series of industries in the auction industry that use artworks to launder money, purchasing counterfeits in bulk and issuing certificates of authenticity.

Wang Taika's industries do not really touch these industries, but entrust a private organization located in Hong Kong Island to carry out various operations. This private organization is actually a secret representative organization of the government. Before this, Wang Taika also had a connection with the real core of the Celestial Empire because of this.

Because Wang Taika is patriotic. Those who understand will understand.

Moreover, Wang Taika's business is very unique. He is one of the few people who often launders money from abroad to his own country. Moreover, he cheats Korean chaebols and he really has no guilt at all.

For various reasons, Wang Taika was safe in Hong Kong Island. He was patriotic, so he was not in danger. Otherwise, he would have been exposed long ago.

In the VIP room of Wynn Palace in Macau, sandalwood and precious perfumes are intertwined under the crystal chandeliers.

A Filipino pushed his crocodile suitcase to the stacker, and then the US dollar bills glowed green under the money detector, and the dealer pushed three million chips over. Then these red plastic pieces flowed into the baccarat table, and were split and reassembled through 17 rounds of betting. A few hours later, when the three gamblers who had lost all their money left cursing, their accounts had received remittances from the Cayman Islands.

In a warehouse in South Korea, a carton labeled with Bluetooth headsets contains mobile phone data cables worth 30 times less. After being labeled, they become medical monitors exported to the European Union.

At a warehouse in the Port of Rotterdam, the Netherlands, forty containers are being loaded. The financial director in charge of the cargo checks the customs declaration and stamps two contracts. The purchase contract with the Dutch company states that the unit price is $500, but the actual amount recorded is the invoice of $1200 issued by the Singapore subsidiary.

When the freighter sounded the whistle and set sail, hundreds of millions of dollars in price difference had been transferred through multiple layers of offshore companies and transferred into a private bank account in Zurich.

The warehouse manager nonchalantly tore off the seal of the container, which contained a list of items that did not match the goods at all. This action allowed his paralyzed son to continue living in the VIP ward of a top hospital.

At the Christie's auction in Hong Kong Island, the appraiser exclaimed in front of the X-ray machine when he discovered that the Ming Dynasty Huanghuali armchair had a layer of material. The original estimate of 800 million soared to tens of millions.

Three days later, the chair appeared at Sotheby's in London, and buyer No. 76 raised the price precisely by 5% each time. The final transaction price was over million yuan, and it was finally circulated through charitable foundations and eventually became the decoration fee for a commercial property in New York.

The Ming Dynasty Huanghuali chair appeared in a private equity fund vault three hours later, and the number on the appraisal report instantly doubled. A fund partner handed the document with a saddle seal to a bank manager, and then used it as a mortgage loan to deposit it into a construction company's bid deposit account.

But all of this had little to do with the keystone industry in South Korea. There was no problem with the flow of funds, and even if there was a problem, it was not something the South Korean police could find out. So they began to seek help from Interpol. But these methods were spread all over the world and involved various industries, even to the point of affecting the entire body.

In the end, no matter how hard they searched, they could only trace it back to a company in the Cayman Islands. But the president of this company, a Panamanian American, committed suicide by jumping off a building after taking all the blame. The case was solved, but it also seemed unsolved.

At this time, because the investigation of Keystone Industries had to involve some of the parts that cooperated with the United States, the United States was strongly dissatisfied. Because the United States really couldn't stop investigating, there was really something wrong. So the United States began to put pressure on South Korea. The final result was that the Panamanian American took the blame and the case was closed.

In fact, it doesn’t matter even if the investigation is deeper, because Wang Taika is no longer involved in specific company affairs. He is like a mascot. Although he occasionally gives orders, he actually has no legal relationship with the company’s direct power.

The so-called chairman of the board of directors sounds good, but in fact he has little power. Because whether it is Jishi Industry, XB Entertainment, or some other corporate organizations, they are not simply joint-stock companies, and some are even closed family companies.

Because from an operational point of view, the real people who give orders are the Duck King and Deng Niuzi and other crazy people. Although these people are 100% obedient to Wang Taika, from the perspective of legal responsibility, this obedient relationship is not recognized.

Wang Taika is innocent, it's just that his people are not doing a good job. The problem with the Duck King is not serious. In fact, most of these illegal things are done by Deng Niuzi.

In fact, Deng Niuzi had already volunteered to be the abandoned pawn, and he really did it voluntarily.

Because Deng Niuzi's mental illness is quite special, he likes the feeling of relying on his own wisdom to tease the law, stay outside the law, and even avoid death. Thinking that there are a group of people who are trying their best to investigate him, but they can't do anything to him, this kind of pleasure makes Deng Niuzi immersed in it. So even if he dies one day, he is willing.

This is what it means to sacrifice oneself for others!

So even if the truth is revealed, at most it will be traced back to Deng Niuzi. It won't be a big deal.

Deng Niuzi can be shot directly, with a machine gun, or even executed by cannon or dog. You can do whatever you want, so what?

Wang Taika, for example, was held jointly liable and was released after serving a year or two in prison. If he spent some money to get medical parole, he could be released even earlier.

However, this is still the case when Wang Taika does not run away. If he runs away, then nothing will happen. After all, it is not like Wang Taika has never run away before.

This is the worst outcome, but it is not that bad. Shen Wencheng thought Wang Taika did not take enough precautions in this regard, but he was wrong. He took too many precautions, so many that they were densely packed.

So some time later, when Shen Wencheng learned that the police had announced that the case was closed and only a Panamanian-American had died, he was so angry that he smashed a lot of things in the office.

He contacted the police again, but the response he received was cruel: "How can we investigate? If we really investigate in this way, the first to expose the problem is not him, but you. Many of your methods are not as deep as his. Do you still want to investigate?"

"It's okay." Shen Wencheng was helpless this time.

It was not until this moment that he realized that although Wang Taika's ability to run a company was not as good as that of a chaebol, his means of making money were almost the same as those of a real chaebol, and even far exceeded them. You can't learn the good ones, but you can master the bad ones once you learn them.

After the case was closed, Wang Taika learned about this incident from Han Caiying. After the two of them were gentle and affectionate that day, Han Caiying mentioned this incident lightly.

While putting on his pants, Wang Taika looked at Han Caiying and asked in surprise: "Is there such a thing? Why didn't the duck king tell me?"

"Maybe it's because it's a small matter." Han Caiying didn't even raise her head, carefully tidying up the wrinkles on her stockings, and said softly, "After all, it doesn't affect anything."

Wang Taika looked at Han Caiying's long legs and took off his pants again: "Well, it's indeed a small matter. But I have a more important matter. Go change your clothes first."

"Well, you are really bad!" (End of this chapter)
