Chapter 0370 - Boiled Xiangjiang
One of Wang Zixuan's plans, like boiling the Xiangjiang River, made the entire Xiangjiang boil.
For three days in a row, TVB broke the news that the Heung Kong International Trust Bank was suspected of embezzlement of 3 billion yuan, and the hard-earned money of countless taxpayers was wasted.
For a time, there was a lot of bustle in front of the Hong Kong government, and Governor McHarbour, who was struggling to cope, on the one hand, called Mr. Shao, who was on vacation in France, and politely asked him not to publish similar news, and on the other hand, urged the ICAC to speed up the process and solve the case within a month.
The chief officer of the ICAC Department was immediately under great pressure, and in such a big case, there were hundreds of suspects involved, and one person was interrogated for a day and a year, and a month was passed.
Originally, this case in history was delayed until two years later to solve the case, and that was when countless manpower and material resources were used.
Some people cry and some laugh, the police first brother Director Lei gloated, the ICAC usually did not block him, it didn't matter if he laughed, the class commissioner went directly to the Hong Kong government to vent his bitterness, claiming that the ICAC is weak, lack of money and people and lack everything, the police are strong, and such a case should be handed over to the police elite to handle.
He also rushed to the Hong Kong government to complain and praised the ICAC for its professionalism in solving corruption cases, which the police are not good at.
The two chiefs blamed each other, and the angry McHarbour almost vomited blood and slapped the table directly.
The Governor of Hong Kong first reprimanded the police for their incompetence, wasting taxpayers' money by the government every year, and once again reprimanded the ICAC for its ineffectiveness in solving the case, and betraying the privileges he granted, and ordered the police and the ICAC to work together to solve the case, within a time limit of half a month, and the case could not be solved, so I'm sorry, write a letter of resignation, he approved.
The two bigwigs have the heart to die, and the most aggrieved is Director Lei, who did he provoke?
The ICAC's squad commissioner's face is not good-looking, although the police are dragged into the water, but McHarbour Governor is obviously not easy to fool, and the time to solve the case has been directly cut by half, how can this solve the case, it involves British and M capital forces, and it will take a few days for transnational cases to go back and forth, not to mention the legal process, the legal process in Europe is notoriously procrastinating, isn't this?
After he and Wang Zixuan made a phone call, the TVB lost their voice collectively for a while, and they did not say a word about this case that had risen in popularity.
What the people want to know is the sales volume, the money, who will have trouble with the money?
For a time, in addition to a few major media, the street tabloids in Xiangjiang reported on the case of the Heung Kong International Trust Bank all over the world, and these tabloids reported whatever the people liked to see for the sake of sales.
The citizens of Xiangjiang could no longer tolerate it, and they took to the streets one after another to protest, and the slogan of "anti-corruption, catch the black hand" rose one after another.
Seeing that the public was boiling over and Governor McHarbour was on pins and needles in the Governor's Office, an old friend of the Foreign and Commonwealth Office called that some MPs were ready to impeach him, and if he did not do anything about it, a hat of inaction would be put on his head, and his past achievements would be in vain.
The ICAC squad officer and Commissioner of Police Commissioner Lui were called in to find out the truth.
The two brothers with real power who were at a loss directly told him that it would take at least half a year to solve the case.
Governor McHarbour changed from the gentleman of his past, and warned them that if his career ended here, they would not be happy, and no one should think about it.
The ICAC Commissioner and Commissioner of Police Inspector Lui knew that the Governor had come for real, and they left the Governor's Mansion in a hurry.
The two rivals sat in the corner of the Island café and sat together privately for the first time to exchange views.
They all know that now is not the time to pass the buck, and now only by working together can they have a chance to tide over the difficulties, otherwise even if McHarbour Governor deals with the past, the family and faction behind him will not let them go.
The two brothers began to dig the bottom of their own boxes, select suitable candidates to organize a task force, and strive to solve the case quickly.
As the first knife of the ICAC, the class commissioner directly threw Guo Hongwei out.
Director Lei thought about it and reported more than a dozen backbone elites in the police circle, no way, there were only a few people in the early days of the establishment of the Independent Commission Against Corruption, and now there are only a few hundred people, although the elite can not stand the few people, but Director Lei has more than 30,000 policemen under him, and there are many cards in his hands, how to play how to have, capricious!
The class commissioner's eyes were red, and the coffee cup he slapped jumped up: "The elite who will ensure that the case is solved within half a month!"
"I'll make a call!" Director Ray shifted his butt and got up to call.
More than ten phone calls were made in a row, and as soon as he heard the case and the requirements for solving the case, or shirked for various reasons, or asked for an increase in the time limit for solving the case, otherwise he could not guarantee the completion of the task, Director Lei's face became darker and darker, and in the end, only Ren Darong guaranteed to complete the task.
Commissioner Lui sat down and said while sweating: "I recommend Superintendent Ren Tat-rong of the Action Team! He is shrewd and capable, he was the superintendent of the Mong Kok Police Station, and he solved the difficult cases on High Street, and he is one of my trump cards." ”
The class commissioner was not easy to fool, and slapped the table: "There is only one superintendent?
Director Lei's face was ugly, he felt that he had overestimated his control, but he couldn't say: "You decide on the candidate first, this is just a recommended candidate, after all, the case is led by the ICAC, and whoever you use will decide, the police will fully cooperate, give whatever you want, give full support, and disobey the police officers will be dismissed on the spot!"
"......" The face of the class commissioner softened, it was about the same, and he also got up to make a call.
As a result, the class commissioner almost dropped the phone in anger, and he also hit a wall, Guo Hongwei actually took paid leave, claiming that he had not taken a vacation for ten years and was in poor health, and a group of elites led by him also took a collective vacation and organized a group to travel to Bangkok, and his deputy had already approved the vacation in the morning, and now it is estimated that he is already on the plane.
The class commissioner asked the deputy to go to the airport immediately to intercept Guo Hongwei and others, and if there was an urgent task, he must hand over the case of Xiangjiang International Trust Bank to Guo Hongwei for handling, and he also rushed to the airport immediately.
His deputy was immediately embarrassed, he had already approved the leave, and if he repented, then his prestige in the ICAC, and the bank's case......
"If you are embarrassed, you can prepare your resignation, which is an order from Governor McHarbour. The class commissioner hung up the phone with a fluttering word, he had long wanted to get this deputy away.
The deputy commissioner of the ICAC, who was in a meeting, was stunned, stood too violently, and his brain was so deprived of oxygen that he fainted.
The deputy commissioner said with a pale face: "Follow me to the airport, call the ASU (Airport Special Police Team), even if the flight is delayed, be sure to stop Guo Hongwei and others, this case of the trust bank does not need to be discussed, and the class commissioner instructed Guo Hongwei to deal with it." ”
A group of high-level officials in the conference room whispered that the "ICAC Black Cauldron" was about to take the blame again, Guo Hongwei's boss Lu De heard this, and a trace of abuse flashed in his eyes. Fupin Chinese
