Chapter 136: The Law Is Nothing More Than Human Affection
When he came back, he was thinking about it in the car, until he saw Ruan Gaoqi and listened to Liu Jiachang's introduction, Li Weimin knew that outside the iron gate of the old wharf, there were nearly 100 people who came to ask for mercy.
In order to avoid physical conflicts, colleagues from the Audit and Supervision Department and the Legal Affairs Department patiently explained outside, reasoned with the families of the people involved, persuaded them to go back, and suggested that they quickly find a lawyer.
The case is not handled at the headquarters, but in the industrial villages.
As soon as Ruan Gaoqi's officer friends arrived, they were sent to Pingdong Industrial Village by the security team and the law enforcement team of the Military Justice Bureau of the General Staff Headquarters, which was temporarily stationed at the Industrial Investment Company.
He was not able to come in and sit in the reception room on the third floor because of his status as a lieutenant in the Air Force. Instead, he served the chairman of the board of directors when a million refugees evacuated south last year, and he was half of his own people. In addition, his new wife works here, a veritable family member of the company.
Wooing officers in the national army is actually very simple, just provide employment opportunities.
Under the inconspicuous arrangement of Chen Shiguo, Liu Jiachang, Wu Andong and other high-level officials, there are more than 60 "family" companies like him, covering the army, navy, and air force.
According to the plan, the company will hold a series of celebrations and entertainment activities around the Spring Festival this year.
At that time, the staff and their families will be arranged to go to Phu Quoc Island for a few days to eat seafood, relax, and connect with each other, so that young Zhuang officers like Nguyen Gao Qi can communicate with the security guards, so that the security guards can receive some care after they join the national army after their service expires.
The first time he interceded for someone, Ruan Gaoqi looked a little uneasy.
After Li Weimin understood the general situation, he said sincerely: "Lieutenant Qi." It's not that I don't help. It's a favor that I can't really help. Just an hour ago. I have just emphasized in the conference room next door that everyone is equal before the law, and I have just asked my colleagues in the Audit and Supervision Department and the Security Department to investigate to the end no matter what the identity of the person involved in the case is or what their relationship is.
Not only did your friend get involved, but a shareholder who had made great contributions at the beginning of the company's formation, knowing that the company would not pay dividends in the next ten years, and that it might even close down and go bankrupt at any time due to political changes, was involved.
Others in Phu Quoc prison. He is being questioned by investigators. According to the current information, in accordance with laws and regulations and the articles of association, his shares will be acquired by other shareholders at the next board meeting and he will lose his shareholder status; He will be brought to trial in circuit court, where he will be sentenced to at least five years in prison and a hefty fine. ”
"Shareholders?"
"Not only is he a shareholder, but he is also a friend who has played with me since I was a child, and he took the lead in investing in shares and buying industrial investment bonds, nothing else. Just wanted to help me. So my heart was like a knife, and it was very uncomfortable. I don't know how to face him. How to face his family. ”
Even friends and shareholders who have played since childhood to adulthood must be dealt with strictly, which shows how determined the industrial investment company is to punish corruption.
Ruan Gaoqi was very glad that his wife was just an ordinary clerk and was not involved, and said embarrassedly: "Mr. Min, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have come, I shouldn't have told you this." ”
"It's a matter of course to help a friend, there's nothing you shouldn't do."
Li Weimin patted him on the arm, and the words changed: "As for your friends, the situation is indeed quite special, and they have participated in the operation to eradicate the warlords of the Pingchuan faction, and they can take the initiative to surrender within the specified time, I believe that my colleagues in the Audit and Supervision Department and the Military Justice Bureau will consider it." ”
Ruan Gaoqi saw the turning point and couldn't help asking: "Will they go to prison and will they be dismissed from their military duties?" ”
"If everything they told you is true, then the situation is not very serious, and if there are military exploits and repentance, our side should not prosecute. As for whether he will be dismissed from military duty, it is up to the Judge Advocate General's Bureau of the General Staff to decide. ”
Not being able to send money to people in industrial investment companies does not mean that you cannot send money to the top brass of the military.
They will only think that there is less money, not more money.
On the one hand, he admires "Mr. Min" very much and thinks that this kind of corruption should be severely punished; On the one hand, I had to run for my friends and do those things that were against my will to bribe and intercede.
He was in a trance, stunned for a moment, and hurriedly changed the topic: "Mr. Min, I received an order the day before yesterday that Shangfeng asked me to go to the United States for training. ”
Li Weimin didn't pay attention to him a little bit, and said with a smile: "You don't know, I know, the United States Air Force Command and Staff College, for two years. I don't know if I can come back during this period, I said hello to the head of the comprehensive department, and he will give your wife a few days off to accompany her during this time. ”
Going to the US Air Force Command and Staff College for further study, not going to any air base to learn to fly a new aircraft, Nguyen Gao Qi was ecstatic.
Seeing that he wanted to speak and stopped, Li Weimin shook his head and said, "Don't guess, I didn't help you go through the back door, I didn't say hello to anyone, you won all this yourself." ”
It is entirely up to the US military advisory group to decide who to arrange for further study in the United States, whether the Ministry of Defense says or not, let alone the General Staff.
Landsdale was a member of the Military Advisory Group, and was most familiar with the situation in Vietnam, especially the Nationalist Army, and not only had the right to recommend, but also had other military advisers select people to be vetted by him to prevent them from mixing with the Viet Minh elements.
He was good friends with Lansdale and was introduced last time at the Catina Street Bar. That's enough, there's no need to deliberately go through the back door to say hello.
Ruan Gaoqi couldn't hold back his excitement and grinned: "Mr. Min, if it weren't for you, I would definitely not have this opportunity." ”
"It's all said that it has nothing to do with me."
Li Weimin smiled and continued: "There is a Vietnamese Student Association in the United States, and there is a representative office of the Industrial Investment Company. If I go to the U.S. and have time, I will definitely go to see you. ”
"Thank you, Mr. Min."
"My own people, said that Xie Tai saw the outside. In short, go with confidence, and colleagues at home will help take care of it. ”
It doesn't matter if it's related or not, Ruan Gaoqi not only thanked Li Weimin, but even wanted to thank Ruan Wenxin who was driven away. If it weren't for Ruan Wenxin, he wouldn't have known "Mr. Min" at all, wouldn't have become a friend of "Mr. Min", and would not have become a "family member" of an employee of the company.
Seeing off Ruan Gaoqi, who was grateful for his kindness, Hou Guangsheng's father, Mr. Hou Yifa, a wealthy businessman in Guangfu, walked in accompanied by Liu Jiachang.
Mr. Hou was very haggard, his lips trembling and he didn't know how to speak.
Li Weimin could understand his mood at this moment, and while beckoning him to sit down, he said apologetically: "Uncle Hou, I'm sorry for worrying you." ”
Mr. Hou was reasonable, and said with a look of hatred: "Virtuous nephew, I don't blame you, it was Guangsheng who knew the law and broke the law, did not listen to the advice, and insisted on going his own way, so he fell into such a field, and it was purely self-inflicted." You are in charge of such a large company, and you represent the government, you must enforce the law impartially, and you must be even-handed. If it weren't for the coercion of the lowly, I would never have come. ”
The child is the flesh and soul of his mother's heart, not to mention that Hou Guangsheng is an only son, it is normal for his mother to be anxious, and it is not normal if she is not in a hurry.
Li Weimin really didn't know how to interface, Liu Jiachang turned sideways to look at Chen Shiguo and Wu Andong who followed up, and said in a low voice: "Chairman, colleagues from the Audit and Supervision Department found that Guangsheng may have been busy building a factory some time ago, and he has not bothered to go through the naturalization procedures. As you know, naturalization is a matter of one sentence for shareholders, and no one cares about it, so he still holds a Republic of China passport and is still a citizen of the Republic of China. ”
More than 30 young Chinese shareholders have made great contributions to the company.
Chen Shiguo is as reasonable as Wu Andong, he is not the kind of person who does not see people, and he does not want to chill other shareholders because of this, one said: "Chairman, I think this situation can be handled in accordance with the "Interim Regulations on the Administration of Foreigners", first find out the facts, send it to the circuit court for trial, and after the judgment takes effect, deport from the country, and prohibit him from coming to Vietnam again, after all, it is not a criminal offense of a heinous nature." ”
One said: "Chairman, I have asked several shareholders privately, they all have investment in the industrial park, and the funds on hand are relatively tight, and it is estimated that no one will take over the shares held by Hou Guangsheng, or transfer them to the name of Mr. Hou." As you said when you destroyed opium on the embankment, you will not be able to sin your parents, nor your wife and children. ”
Fearing that he would not agree, Liu Jiachang added meaningfully: "This is the opinion of all directors and all shareholders. ”
Even ordinary people who enter the factories in the industrial park are required to be Vietnamese citizens, so how can Hou Quang Sheng, as a shareholder and investor of the company, still not be naturalized?
There is no doubt that they have already colluded with the police chief of the fifth district, Han Shuo.
To this day, Li Weimin does not want to use a shareholder to establish his authority, and economic crimes are not criminal offenses, don't look at Chen Lichun's shouting in the Independence Palace that "kill if you should kill", in fact, the industrial investment company will not kill a person at all.
First, without the support of relevant laws, human life cannot be careless; Second, everyone knows that corruption cannot be solved by killing, and the only way to completely eradicate it is to improve the system, strengthen supervision, and prevent the slightest problem.
Li Weimin weighed it and said in a deep voice: "Since you have not been naturalized, then you should do it in accordance with the "Interim Regulations on the Administration of Foreigners". But this is the first and last time, and if there is a next time, I will not agree to anyone. ”
Chen Shiguo got up and thanked Mr. Hou and nodded slightly, and promised: "Chairman rest assured, there will never be a next time." ”
People don't have to go to jail, the shares are kept, they only need to make up the land use fee, and they only need to pay a fine, which is the best result that can be obtained.
Mr. Hou finally breathed a sigh of relief, and as soon as Liu Jiachang and the others walked out of the reception room, they held his hand tightly and choked up and said, "Virtuous nephew, thank you for your great kindness." I just want to say that from now on, the Hou family's virtuous nephew will be the first to look forward. (To be continued.) )
