Chapter 44: A Very Bad Outcome (I)

June 30th, this is a very ordinary day, but for Zhou Ming and the students of the finance class is not ordinary, this morning, when Zhou Ming and the students of the finance class came to the building of the Department of Economics to prepare for class, but suddenly received a call from the company.

Generally speaking, the people in the company knew that Zhou Ming was still studying at Harvard University, so the company never made a phone call during the class. Now this call came suddenly, especially at the juncture when the Tang Bank happened to have an accident, which made Zhou Ming instinctively feel the seriousness of the matter.

So Zhou Ming took the phone in person, and then heard the panicked report over there: "The chairman is not good, the people from the Justice Bureau are here, and they also brought judicial documents, saying that they want to freeze the company's accounts and all assets." ”

Zhou Ming frowned immediately when he heard the news, but he still said very calmly: "I know about this matter, I will rush back to the company immediately, you first stabilize the people in the Justice Bureau, and tell them that you do not have any authority to deal with the company's affairs." ”

"Teacher, is there any trouble on the company's side?" Zhou Ming hung up the phone, and Ye Ning immediately asked him.

Zhou Ming smiled and said to her: "It doesn't matter, it's not a big deal, it's just that Old Brooke is looking for trouble for us, this is normal, I'll go and see it, you can go to class with peace of mind." ”

After saying that, Zhou Ming and Zhang Lin left the teaching building together, Ye Ning originally wanted to follow, but then she thought that with her current ability, even if she followed, it would be useless, it was better to continue to study and work hard to enrich herself, so as to help Zhou Ming more.

In addition, Ye Ning also agreed with Zhou Ming's words, it is indeed normal for them to find some trouble for Old Brooke from time to time, after all, there is no way to resolve the grudge between them and Old Brooke, Old Brooke is either looking for trouble for them, or trying to figure out how to make trouble for them, between the two, it is better to choose the former, because at least they already know what trouble the other party is looking for, just like now.

More than half an hour later, Zhou Ming rushed to the ladder building to take the elevator up, and when he opened the elevators, he saw a blonde beauty waiting at the door. This is the executive in charge of corporate affairs when he and his finance classmates are not available, named Julie, a graduate of Brighton University, who was dug up by Zhou Ming from a Massachusetts insurance company with an annual salary of $200,000.

Of course, in the past half a year, her work performance is indeed worthy of the salary paid to her by Zhou Ming, not to mention how much leapfrog development the company can make, but at least to ensure that the company not only did not stagnate when she and her financial classmates were not there, but also maintained steady development.

This sounds easy, but you must know that Wharton Insurance Company is basically composed of Zhou Ming himself and his classmates in the finance class, and once they are not there, it is equivalent to siphoning off most of the company's resources.

Imagine that a company, including the chairman and several vice presidents and most of the people in the marketing department, have been absent from the company for a long time, which has to be replaced by an incompetent administrative director, and the company will basically fall into a semi-paralyzed state. Only Julie can keep the company in order, although she complains to Zhou Ming in normal times.

Speaking of which, Zhou Ming was also lucky to find Julie, when Zhou Ming found a headhunting company looking for a suitable administrative director, the headhunting company actually recommended another person after listening to Zhou Ming's request, Julie is just a backup candidate, after all, she has only graduated now, and she has not made any achievements, so her rating in the headhunting company is not very high.

However, Zhou Ming finalized her, because Zhou Ming happened to know that there was such a person, and knew that she did have the ability to lead a company, so he hit it off with the headhunting company, and then poached her with a high salary.

However, this very capable administrative director is now full of anxiety: "Mr. Zhou Ming, I am sorry, but they are from the Bureau of Justice, and they have also brought official judicial documents, and I have told them that I have no right to deal with all legal issues about the company, but I can't stop them, they say that our previous sale is against the law......"

Zhou Ming interrupted Julie's explanation: "None of this is important, I believe you are a serious and responsible administrative director, what about those law enforcement officers of the Justice Bureau now?"

"They are now looking at our financial information in the finance room. Julie replied, she saw Zhou Ming frowning, so she immediately explained, "Mr. Zhou Ming, I understand that finance is a company's privacy, and it has the right to refuse to disclose it without explicit support from the court, but there are many of them, and they also have formal judicial documents, I ......"

Without waiting for Julie to finish speaking, Zhou Ming smiled and said to her: "It's okay, I understand your difficulties, and I don't blame you, let's go see what's going on now." ”

After Zhou Ming finished speaking, he walked into the company first, Julie was just stunned for a moment, and then followed Zhou Ming and entered the company.

At this moment, the Wharton Insurance Company was in a mess, the folders on the desk were crooked, there were many documents scattered on the floor, several black men wearing the uniform of the Bureau of Justice were rummaging through the drawers one by one, and in the front financial room, there was the sound of iron cabinets. Several administrative staff in OL uniforms watched all this in a panic, and when they saw Zhou Ming, they immediately ran towards him like a backbone.

Zhou Ming raised his hand to signal them to be calm, and then raised his head and said loudly to the financial room in front of him: "I want to ask, can I call the police in this situation?"

Hearing Zhou Ming's question, the law enforcement officers of the Justice Bureau stopped their movements, and there was no sound in the financial room, and a short and fat man walked out, looked Zhou Ming up and down a few times, and said: "Chinese, are you the legal representative of this company?" Then I will inform you now, your insurance company's previous selling behavior is suspected of high-frequency trading and insider trading, and the Justice Bureau wants to freeze all the assets of your company, which is your judicial document. ”

As the other party spoke, he took out a document and threw it to Zhou Ming, and after doing this, he and Zhou Ming looked at each other for a while and then said, "If there is no problem, you can leave." ”

Zhou Ming smiled, and he asked, "I don't know what you call it?"

"I'm the Legal Officer of the Financial Supervision Division of the Bureau of Justice, and my name is Lincoln. The fat man said.

"Well, Lincoln Counsel, I don't know if it's because I'm having a problem with my English or if you're not hearing good enough. ”

Lincoln looked at Zhou Ming suspiciously, obviously not understanding what Zhou Ming meant, so Zhou Ming had to point around the office, and then continued: "Lincoln legal officer, didn't you hear my question just now?

"Why call the police? We are the Department of Justice. Lincoln asked, stunned, apparently still not understanding.

"Of course I know that you are the Bureau of Justice," Zhou Ming said, "but now you have broken into my company without permission, and you have to freeze my property, you are a legal officer, I think whether your behavior is illegal, you must know better than me, right?"

Lincoln suddenly realized what Zhou Ming meant: "So you are saying that I am breaking the law, but Chinese, are you sure that you are not joking with me? I am the legal officer in charge of law enforcement in the Bureau of Justice, and are you blind? I still brought judicial documents here today, I am in accordance with the law, I have the right to freeze all the assets of this company!"

"But I don't see the Bureau of Justice enforcing the law, all I see is a group of robbers who have made a mess of my company!" Zhou Ming's words were resounding.

Lincoln was taken aback, then he came back to his senses and stretched out his hand to Zhou Ming and said, "Who gave you the power to talk to me so loudly? I tell you, I can say at any time that you are threatening law enforcement, and you say that you face at least three years in prison, do you know?"

Hearing that the three years of imprisonment were held, Julie and the others immediately pulled Zhou Ming back, so that Zhou Ming would stop arguing with Lincoln, but Lincoln over there still did not hesitate to see Zhou Ming like this: "Chinese, now this company still belongs to you, but you have to get out of here now, because he has been frozen, whether it is your funds in the bank account or this room, you can't touch it again!"

At this time, Zhou Ming had been pulled out of the office by Julie and the others, Zhou Ming was not afraid of Lincoln, but he didn't go into the office again, because Julie was crying at the door.

"Mr. Zhou Ming, I really feel very sorry, you trusted me so much and handed over the company to me, but I didn't protect him, and now they are actually freezing like this, this is really a very bad result. Julie cried.

"Julie, you don't need to apologize, because it's not your fault. Zhou Ming comforted her and said, "You also saw it just now, they are not so much here to enforce the law, but rather to say that they are a group of robbers who have been instructed to come and make trouble, and to say protection, it is also my responsibility as the chairman of the board of directors who have not fulfilled their due responsibilities, and you have done a very good job now." ”

Julie shook her head and said, "But that's not enough!"

Julie looked at Zhou Ming and said, "Mr. Zhou Ming, do you know? I love Wharton Insurance Company very much, I really love it here, when I came into the company, there was nothing here, but Mr. Zhou Ming was you who told me that there will be anything here in the future, and it was you who gave me a very high salary to pay off his gambling debts for my father, and since then I swore that I must make this company grow!"

"I watched this company grow little by little, as well as the miraculous investment of Mr. Zhou Ming and your classmates, which allowed me to witness the rise of a miracle!"

Julie suddenly became very disappointed when she said this: "But at this time, the Bureau of Justice came, and they brought judicial documents to freeze all the company's assets, which is to forcibly interrupt our dreams! I am so unwilling, because if I can do a little better, Mr. Zhou Ming may not need you to take risks to do those selling, this is all because I did not do my best!"

In the face of Julie's words, Zhou Ming felt very ashamed, because it was really not her responsibility to compare her heart to her heart, because no matter how good she did, she would definitely do this selling action, and as long as Old Brooke kept staring at herself, then the Justice Bureau would still come to the door.

Zhou Ming thought about it and said, "Julie, I don't think you should think like that, after all, some things ......."

But this time Zhou Ming's words were interrupted before he finished speaking, and I saw that the elevator over there opened, and a figure that Zhou Ming was very familiar with walked over, it was Old Brooke.

"Yo, what's going on with Wharton today? How can there be law enforcement officers from the Bureau of Justice coming over? Did you do something illegal, so I said a long time ago, no matter what you do, you still have to follow the framework of the law. Old Brooke said with a smirk.

Zhou Ming smiled coldly and said: "I don't think I need to worry about Congressman Brooke, I just want to ask Councilor Brooke why he came to me when he didn't hold a meeting in the parliament building?

"Of course not, I'm not a judicial officer, how can I bring any judicial documents?" Old Brook then changed his words and continued, "But what I brought to you, Mr. Zhou Ming, is not good news!"
