Golden Years in the World of Film and Television

Li Na nodded and said: "Yes, as far as we know, this company tricks borrowers into borrowing money at usurious rates, and then uses violent means to force the debtors to buy liquor to repay the illegal interest.

At the same time, they also issued invoices to the debtors for the purchase of drinks, which they used to package themselves and create a false impression to the debtors, mistaking them for regular sales of goods, thereby covering up and concealing the fraud and the source and nature of the stolen money.

The clients we received before suffered greatly from this, but this new client is indeed a different routine.

It turns out that this company also deals in special services. Those girls who impulsively borrowed loan sharks for plastic surgery will be forced to sell themselves to repay the money as long as they can't repay the money..."

After Li Na finished speaking, Han Tao roughly understood the situation of this case. As the saying goes, gangsters are not scary, only the gangsters are educated. This Dao Brother perfectly interprets this sentence.

This once uneducated and simple-minded gangster gradually grew into a cultural gangster with strong tactics and proficiency in calculations under the training of Brother Qiang.

It can be said that he made loan sharking popular through various methods and means, and even formed an industrial chain with other businesses, and invented the liquor loan.

Usury, loan sharking, is high in interest, which is not the most powerful thing. What's even more terrible is that there is interest compounding.

According to legal regulations, the maximum interest rate on private loans at that time did not exceed 24% annualized. The excess interest was not recognized by the law. Even if the excess interest was paid, the court may order a refund.

What's more serious is that this kind of behavior can easily be considered a criminal crime of loan sharking, so in order to avoid the above potential risks, this guy invented the liquor-type interest rate.

The specific method is that both parties sign a loan contract and agree on the interest rate and interest payment method protected by law. The victim only needs to pay the interest on time in accordance with the contract.

As for the illegally high interest and the method of collecting interest, the two parties agreed verbally. When the parties wanted to repay the interest, they would go to the liquor online store opened by Brother Dao to buy a bottle of liquor with the interest to be repaid and issue an invoice.

The advantage of doing this is that it gives the charging of high interest a legal cover. For Brother Dao, due to the large amount of money, cash payment is not a good solution, and direct transfer can easily be considered usury.

But the method of buying liquor is different. It can perfectly solve the problem of collecting high interest rates, because on the surface, buying liquor and paying interest are two completely isolated and unrelated behaviors.

Moreover, this liquor company has someone in its name and is completely isolated from Brother Dao. Even if there is any trouble, it can be completely dismissed as personal behavior and the commercial behavior of the liquor company. The transaction is genuine, there are invoices and shipments, and it has nothing to do with the loan relationship between the two parties. .

In this way, it not only solves the problem of interest collection, but also makes the business behavior look more legal and the criminal methods more concealed. After all, judging from the contract content and the transfer records, the borrowing behavior is consensual and legal and legitimate.

Han Tao, who understood the plot, was moved in his heart and nodded: "Okay, leave the information for me to look at. You can communicate with Wendy about the specific situation. Things will be arranged according to the normal process. I will disappear first.

You know the issues involved here, and the people involved are also very complicated. If you can't kill with one hit, don't alert the enemy! "

"I understand, then I'm leaving, director. If anything happens, you can arrange for Lin Rui and the others at any time. They are already able to get started with the current work!"

Li Na is very busy now. She came here mainly to use some connections, so she reported to Han Tao and didn't have time to stay too long.

"Okay, you all go and do your work. I'm going back to my hometown tomorrow. Please pay attention to Wendy at the law firm and contact me at any time."

"understood!"

Watching Li Na leave, Han Tao pinched his eyebrows. Now Mingtang Law Firm is about to start a full-scale war with Chengtai and Hengxin. Without enough energy, he really doesn't want to wade into the muddy waters of Linjiang Province.

Of course, Han Tao will not do nothing, he will still make arrangements in advance, and some things have already started.

Thinking of this, Han Tao couldn't help but look at a message on his phone. It was about Linjiang and about the newly appointed leader who held a business environment improvement conference.

The meeting requested that units at all levels take action, and as the action deepened, a group of people were soon picked out and stated that they would be dealt with strictly.

Among them, a group of local gangs seriously affected the normal economic order and destroyed the business environment, and were directly eliminated by relevant units.

They have also managed to deal with the maximum penalty, and those who can be sentenced to five years will definitely not be sentenced to four years and 11 months. However, many ordinary people do not understand that some things should not be taken at face value.

However, in Han Tao's view, the other party was taking the initiative to give up some unimportant places, just to show that person's attitude.

This is the so-called courtesy first, then attack. As long as the person accepts his gift, then they can sit down and talk about what attitude is needed. As long as they can show it, they are willing to cooperate.

If the other party toasts and refuses to eat, it is estimated that the other party will take action to let this person know who is the boss here. After all, the other party feels that he has great hands and eyes. If he does not cooperate with him, he will fall into a big fall sooner or later.

But only Han Tao understood that this time he was going to hit a brick wall. Soon he would know that a strong dragon could defeat local snakes, and Linjiang was about to change.

Chapter 704 Jiang Lai’s dinner invitation

Time passed unconsciously, and Han Tao finally finished the work at hand before leaving get off work.

After a brief stretch, he sent a message to notify the driver to be on standby, and got up to get off work. Today he promised Jiang Nansun and Zhu Suosuo that he would go to Jiang's house to have a meal with them.

But before Han Tao walked out of the office, his cell phone rang. Seeing that the caller was Jiang Haokun, he pressed the answer button in confusion.

Jiang Haokun didn't mess around. After the two exchanged pleasantries, he went straight to the topic and said that he wanted to invite Han Tao to dinner and would wait for many nights, and the address was already set.

Seeing that he couldn't push it out, Han Tao could only nod in agreement, and sent a message to Jiang Nansun to explain the situation.

A few days ago, Qu Xiaoxiao begged him to help deal with Qu Lianjie's matter, so Han Tao also took care of Chen Fang's matter. It was precisely because of this that today's dinner happened.

In fact, Jiang Haokun didn't know that the reason why he punished Chen Fang was really not because of Jiang Lai, but just to beat rabbits and help Wang Manni's best friend Zoe vent her anger.

This Chen Fang is a love liar, and with Zoe as his first love, he defrauded four women of their money. This is what Han Tao dislikes most about him.

This person only interacted with Jiang Lai to defraud the Jiang family of money and use the Jiang family's connections. Otherwise, he would not have the opportunity to hang out with an ignorant rich second generation like Qu Lianjie.

After learning the truth from her brother and their small circle, Jiang Lai couldn't believe it. She couldn't accept that the true love in her eyes was so vulnerable.

For a moment, Jiang Lai was completely depressed. While he was heartbroken and completely despairing, he also deceived himself and others, always saying that it was his brother's fault.

Jiang Haokun was afraid that Jiang Lai would be stimulated and unable to think about it, so he reluctantly proposed to take her to see Han Tao. One was to express his gratitude to Han Tao for his help, and the other was to ask Han Tao to show her the evidence so that his sister would give up completely.

The place to eat was chosen by Jiang Lai herself. It was a restaurant that served private dishes. It was here that she met Chen Fang. She chose this place as the meeting place and planned to finish there.

...........................

I don’t know what happened today, but Han Tao had just finished talking to Jiang Hao Kun when another call came in.

There was no choice but to answer the phone while walking out of the law firm.

After a few pleasantries, the other party got straight to the point: "Taozi, let me tell you something. Your old senior might be in trouble recently. I know you two have a good relationship, but you better stay out of this mess!"

Hearing this, Han Tao asked in confusion, "Brother Zhao, what's going on? You're talking so nonsensically that I'm completely confused."

"Hahaha, come to think of it, it's all thanks to your teacher Gao's understanding of the bigger picture that we were able to arrest him. He was his former secretary, do you remember him?"

The person on the other end of the phone first smiled, sighed with a somewhat sad tone, and then asked.

Han Tao paused and asked, "Are you talking about Old Chen? He's one of Teacher Gao's favorite secretaries. He's very capable and sensible. I heard he's already a deputy dean."

How could Han Tao not know this person? He was even familiar with him. He had met him several times at Teacher Gao's house and had interacted with him during this period.

Thinking of this, Han Tao couldn't help but frowned. Teacher Gao's external transfer had reached a critical moment, and problems could not occur at this time.

"Yes, that's him."

The person on the other end of the phone nodded, and then asked without hesitation: "Taozi, he was arrested by us recently. You didn't see the situation at the scene. You are really knowledgeable!"

"Brother Zhao, please stop keeping us in suspense. What's going on?"

Han Tao shook his head. He really didn't know the specific situation. After all, the timeline didn't match up now. Could it be that he started learning foreign languages ​​now?

The person on the other side of the phone laughed again and said, "Actually, we have been keeping an eye on this guy for a long time, but there were a lot of people and things that didn't coordinate well before, so we delayed it until now.

So, after getting their consent, we launched a surprise operation. Wow, when we entered his villa, this old guy was having quite a bit of fun, having sex in the same bed with a foreign beauty!"

"What's so strange about this? It's nothing more than a work style issue. Is it worth making such a fuss?"

Han Tao didn't care after hearing this. After all, from a common sense point of view, finding a lady was a small matter and not worth making such a fuss.

The person on the other end of the phone couldn't help but smile when he heard Han Tao's answer, and continued to ask:

"Haha, it's not a big deal, but you'd never guess how he answered when we asked him what he was doing!"

"How else can I answer? I drank too much. This is just a punishment at best!"

Han Tao felt that as long as this person was not stupid, the situation in the plot would not occur. After all, this matter would not damage his roots. Cooperation was the wisest choice.

"I knew you wouldn't guess that he actually said that he was learning a foreign language, and he learned it in bed. Don't you think it's ridiculous?"

The person on the other end of the phone sounded mocking. He was also laughed at this ridiculous excuse. It was so ridiculous.

However, after answering this time, he did not wait for Han Tao to ask questions, nor did he pretend to be pretentious, and continued to speak:

"Of course this is not the key point. The key point is that after he was caught, his wife was not anxious, but one of your old seniors was.

Because I turned off my phone, he even called Lao Zhou, but he didn’t get the result he wanted, so I’m afraid…”

"Brother Zhao!"

Han Tao interrupted him, knowing that he was concerned about being involved, so he directly stated:

"Thank you for reminding me. I understand what you mean. I will not interfere in this matter. I owe you a favor for this matter!"

"You are too polite to me, let alone thank you. I still know your bottom line and temper. Although it is unnecessary, I still want to talk to you."

"Okay, let's not say thank you between us. When we go back later, I'll treat you to a drink!"

"That's it. I won't agree if it's less than fifteen years old. I'll feel most at ease if I drink with you!"

"No problem, enough!"

Han Tao smiled slightly and hung up the phone. It seemed that this incident started now, but it only broke out later due to many complications.

After thinking for a moment, he called Teacher Gao and the two chatted for a while before hanging up.

Only Han Tao knew that this matter was very troublesome. He had to remind Teacher Gao about some things. After all, it was a matter of attitude.

Although from an outsider's perspective, this guy was arrested for learning a foreign language with his bare ass, the nature of the matter is not that serious at all.

But after he was arrested, Master Zhao actually rushed there in a hurry, which shows that the weight of this matter in the hearts of the Zhao family is not as simple as it seems.

It doesn’t matter if this old guy is caught. What’s important is that he cannot be caught in the manor because this is an important base of the Zhao family.

Now that he was arrested in the manor, people in the circle would naturally understand this as a strong signal, that is, this old senior can no longer control the manor, and the control of the Zhao family behind him over the place has also declined.

This is also the reason why the senior student tried his best to rescue the person. After all, once such a rumor spreads, it is definitely not a good signal for the Zhao family.

Especially at this juncture of Teacher Gao's external transfer, the old senior thought that after Teacher Gao left, he would fully take over this resource.

If something goes wrong at this time, some people will definitely hesitate to wait and see, some will even consider cutting off or disembarking early, and some may even defect at any time.

Therefore, this negative impact cannot exist. Once it becomes a fact and is announced to the public, it will be extremely difficult to completely eliminate it. After all, this is the Internet age.

Chapter 705 Accepting an Appointment with the Jiang Brothers and Sisters

Along the Suzhou River at night, the lights are bright. Bridges, sculptures, and buildings shine brightly under the light, bringing a different night to the city.

It is like a beautiful picture of ancient and modern intertwined, history and future, making people find peace and mystery in the busy city.

Wang Dong followed the navigation and quickly drove to a unique restaurant. At this time, the place was reserved. When the car stopped, Jiang Haokun had already led Jiang Lai to the gate to greet him.

"Han Lu is here."

Jiang Haokun looked at Han Tao who got out of the car, took the lead in saying hello, and extended his hand politely.

Han Tao smiled and shook hands with him, and then the two walked into the restaurant together. Lin Rui and Jiang Haokun's assistants were one step behind, walking quietly behind the two bosses.

Although Jiang Lai was unhappy at being ignored, considering that he needed to ask Han Tao something, he suppressed the eldest lady's temper and followed him angrily.

Although Han Tao has only been back to the Magic City for a few months, he has been prosperous during this period, and his brother He Han is also considered one of the most influential figures in this circle. Therefore, the Jiang family is very willing to make friends with Han Tao, a big man. lawyer.

What's more, Jiang's Group has now become a client and partner of Mingtang Law Firm, and they are almost the same age, so the two of them are sympathetic to each other and have a very good chat.

Han Tao also attaches great importance to the Jiang Group. If a group company of this size can hand over all legal affairs to Mingtang, it can definitely be regarded as one of Mingtang's important clients.

Therefore, Han Tao should try his best to win the business of Jiang Group. After all, such large group companies have their own legal departments, so without strong business capabilities and relationships, there is no need to even think about it.

Thanks to the current legal departments of major domestic companies, the specific tasks they undertake are different from those of law firms, and their ability to go to court alone is relatively lacking. In a few years, the corporate legal departments will definitely be on their own.

After the three of them sat down, Jiang Haokun glanced at his sister Jiang Lai, sighed with a bad look on his face, and then said with a smile:

"Han Lu, thank you for my sister Jiang Lai's matter this time. If it weren't for your help, we would still be in the dark, and Jiang Lai would still be deceived by that boy.

If it were me, Jiang Lai would definitely say that I arranged it on purpose, so I had to let you go. Qu Xiaoxiao also told our family Jiang Lai, and now she is the only one who can still listen to your words. "

"You're welcome, Mr. Jiang. It's easy for me. After all, we are partners and friends. We must reach out to someone we meet."

Han Tao could clearly tell that Jiang Haokun cared about his sister's feelings and invited him over because he wanted to ask him to help her as an excuse to say thank you.

Hearing his brother mentioning himself, Jiang Lai looked at Han Tao and asked with some anticipation and pain: "Han Tao, is what Xiao Xiao and my brother said true?"

"Yes, there is no need to lie to you whether it's a friend or your brother about this kind of thing."

Han Tao nodded, took the information handed over by Lin Rui, put it in front of Jiang Lai, and continued straightforwardly:

"He not only deceived you, but also abandoned his childhood sweetheart and his first girlfriend who supported him through college, so you don't have to take chances. He is dating you because of Jiang's group.

In fact, I think you must have the answer in your heart, but it's just self-deception. After all, you have put a lot of expectations and enjoyment into this relationship, so you don't want to break this dream. "

"Haha...it turns out that I am a fool..."

Jiang Lai looked at the information and couldn't help but laugh at herself. Chen Fang's thunderstorm had a great impact on her. She was extremely sad these days, and she did many things that ordinary people could not understand because of this.
