The old people are still there, and the newcomers have also got to know them, whether it is in the previous life or in this life, Ye Dongqing's life is quite exciting.

There are some more people around, Laura, who serves as a secretary, and Zhao Liuli, who is lying on the hospital bed, thinking all day long about how long it will be before she can remove the gauze on her eyes, plus the employees of the Freshwater Fund who are connected to Ye Dongqing because of their interests, and they go around Ye Dongqing every day.

In the few days after returning to the United States, there was almost nothing to do from morning to night, and occasionally he stayed in the hospital with the girl, during which the doctor checked once, and it was said that the recovery was good.

He was questioned by the police, and he also drank and chatted with the big guy with four stars on his shoulder, but it was the first time he participated in the hearing.

On November 26th, Tuesday at half past nine a.m.

Ye Dongqing came on foot alone and appeared on time in a small conference room at the headquarters of the Securities and Exchange Commission, where more than a dozen investors who were worried about the safety of their funds appeared one after another, hoping to know whether there was a risk of cashing out the wealth management products they had invested in.

Rumors about the safety of funds are still spreading in a small area, and only some investors who were questioned by investigators know about the problems of Tamsui Fund Company.

Ms. Vigo had patiently explained to them personally and had them look at some of the accounts, and a third-party company, PricewaterhouseCoopers, would issue a certificate of funds to ensure that there were sufficient funds on the books.

Properly handled, a possible storm was snuffed out before it even began, no one went to court to sue Tamsui Fund, so far it was safe and business went on.

Speaking of the SEC.

This Washington-based parastatal agency has the authority to subpoena a party for questioning, to subpoena witnesses, and to request an order from federal district court compelling a person to appear or provide evidence if the person being subpoenaed refuses to appear or refuses to be questioned.

If the person disobeys the injunction again, he or she may be sentenced to a misdemeanor and imprisonment for not less than one year, or a small fine, depending on the seriousness of the circumstances.

This time, because of Ye Dongqing's approach...... The ingenuity led the Securities and Exchange Commission to consider it necessary to hold this administrative hearing to give the accused, that is, Ye Dongqing, a chance to defend himself and judge what punishment should be given.

A series of operations of the Tamsui Fund must have violated the rules, today it is not a matter of not punishing the investigation department, but to decide how strong the punishment is, there is no lawyer to help Ye Dongqing defend, and the next thing is to look at himself, yesterday with the help of lawyer Johnny Power, a mock hearing has been conducted, rehearsing the questions that may be raised.

This is probably the most expensive "exam answer" that Ye Dongqing has ever bought, and Johnny Power's lawyer bill will be delivered to him soon, plus the cost of helping some time ago, it is estimated that it can be more than ten or two hundred thousand dollars.

People say that lawyers' time is expensive, and this is not a joke, it is really very expensive.

Sitting at a separate table, in front of a row of people, led by an old man named Freeman, with gray hair and a pair of gold-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose, came up and asked, "The summons has been sent to you a long time ago, why didn't you come to explain?"

"Sir, I was busy with business in Xiangjiang some time ago, and a relative was seriously ill and about to pass away. ”

Ye Dongqing replied.

Old Freeman pushed his glasses and continued: "Just as you say the truth, your lawyer has already helped you take care of everything, I look at the changes in the funds on the books, it seems that during the period of your relative's death, Freshwater Fund Company managed to earn more than 40 million dollars?"

"This is a previous crude oil futures order, which was bought before I was notified to rush to Xiangjiang, and the ticket I submitted can be used as evidence. ”

The other party is responsible for finding Ye Dongqing's problem, and he only needs to find ways to avoid the reality that may cause him heavy losses, and at the moment he is wondering if Mrs. Johnson has helped him, otherwise how could this old man be yin and yang?

"Leo Yeh, I don't see any proof of your academic qualifications or financial licenses, please tell me what school you graduated from, and what type of license do you hold?"

Old Freeman glanced at the information and continued to ask him in a hoarse voice: "Since you want to manage a fund company, and it is a publicly offered fund company, I think you should have a certain amount of knowledge, such as the practices some time ago, they are very dangerous, and it is likely to cause investors to lose their principal." ”

"I'm still in the twelfth grade, I'm applying to Yale, Harvard or Brown are pretty good, and even though I don't have any financial licenses, I hire people who are very experienced and can give me the right advice. ”

Ye Dongqing had investigated in advance that the elder Freeman graduated from Yale University, and he specifically mentioned Yale University to quietly curry favor with him.

The old man, who lived like a human spirit, how could he let him go because of this little detail, shook his head and said: "Judging from the previous performance, they did not give you the most correct advice, although they successfully made a lot of money, and the numbers amazed me, but after all, they violated the system, which is a mistake that securities practitioners should never make......"

The old man didn't drink a drop of water, and he didn't need to go to the toilet, so he asked for more than two hours.

From one transaction to another, to rectification opinions, to the composition of the company's personnel and other questions, Ye Dongqing was almost tortured to death, it felt like a teacher was asking the same student to answer different questions in three classes in a row, and he kept picking thorns.

finally survived until the end, and the final verdict will not be available until next week, or next week, next week, anyway, within a month, Ye Dongqing was not given an exact time, only that someone would call him over, and he was not allowed to leave the United States before that.

Other things have not been determined, but the amount of the fine came out first, only 100,000 US dollars, which is not painful compared to profits, and the director of Vigo, who is behind the blame, was banned from entering the securities industry for three months, which is not a big deal, and the reward Ye Dongqing has promised her, which is more than one million US dollars.

Judging from these, the punishment of people is really not large, and it is more like fooling the past.

However, Tamsui Fund Company is not so lucky, and the operation will no longer be as free and flexible as before, not saying that it cannot raise funds, but only saying that it must be guaranteed to ensure that it can be repaid to investors with interest.

A deposit is required to prove it, it can be a bond, a stock or a company share, and if the money is enough, the Securities and Exchange Commission will send someone to supervise and review.

Ye Dongqing plans to take a look at the market in the near future, and if the time is right, he will buy the stocks of those Internet companies again, which is exactly what he wants......
