Chapter 638: Messing Up
…… Ministry of Justice Audit ...... Xu Xiujun, who was about to get out of the car, almost fell headlong, isn't this a pit to play! Which of those foreign banks and foreign businessmen is clean? 1.7 billion dumps, who dares to play like this among domestic speculators? I don't know much about this check. As for the withdrawal of orders, it is even more vicious, and this small trick does not work in normal times, because foreign businessmen can find a way to pull international orders to maintain, and then exert diplomatic pressure through various governments, and they must open up in a few months at most, but now that the economic crisis has broken out, countries will not release foreign countries even if they have orders!
Someone is going to be unlucky.
Xu Xiujun thought right, after Yang Qiu secretly arrived in Shanghai, a storm of financial inspections that swept the country kicked off.
The financial crisis on the other side of the Pacific made Shanghai feel a little cool, but apart from the chaotic newspaper in Chapter 638 reporting on the financial tsunami all day long, and the road to the exchange with more police, life has not begun to change for ordinary people. The Far Eastern metropolis is still busy, with neon lights shining brighter than stars at night, and human-powered rickshaws and domestic taxis on the banks of the Huangpu River in the cool breeze, where the old and the modern complement each other.
It's a magical city, home to the largest slum in China, the Suzhou Creek, polluted by transitional industries, the cobweb-like power lines that dot the city, businessmen from all over the world, and countless groups of construction sites and workers. Maybe it's not the best Shanghai, but it's a vibrant Shanghai! Jiangnan and Qiuxin have become the city's business cards, and the new radio factory, watch factory, and refrigerator factory are thriving, and after the Yangshupu power plant was upgraded, Wujing power plant, Shidongkou power plant, and Jiading power plant were erected.
The phrase "China's Wall Street, Oriental Night Paris" became synonymous with Shanghai.
After the "Shanghai Communiqué", various countries withdrew their concessions one after another, and there were no special areas in China's territory except Hong Kong. From the existence of the law in the past, to an ordinary foreign businessman today, some people have long been dissatisfied with Chapter 638.
The ballroom on the third floor of Swire & Co.'s Shanghai headquarters was filled with guests dancing to the melodious sound of the saxophone. Next to the window on the left. William Hamill, who had made a lot of profits for the foreign company during the silver crisis, took out his cigar and fixed his eyes on the large construction site opposite the foreign company. It was the Shanghai headquarters of China's Gulf Oil Company, which had just broken ground, after the upstart Far Eastern company acquired Sumatra and Saudi oil fields in succession, and because of its investment in the Sino-US Zhanjiang (Beihai) petrochemical plant and Najd refinery. I can't wait to show the demeanor of a world-class company. So they recruited architects from the United States and Germany and began to build this 210-meter-high skyscraper in Asia!
But that record may not last long, because just 3 kilometres away, an old town is being demolished, and the land has been bought by another oil giga, China Huachen Petroleum. Huachen Petroleum is said to have started construction of a skyscraper taller than the Gulf Oil Building in a year's time. God testifies that 18 years ago there was not a single building with more than 10 floors here. But now there are more than a dozen 100-meter-high high-rise buildings such as Shanghai Hotel, International Hotel, Jiangnan Group and Qiuxin Group Building!
Yes! No one can change the old feudal China overnight, let alone eliminate the slums overnight, not even the strongest people in the Far East. But this kind of change that can be seen every day, this desire and pursuit of height, makes even the most discerning political commentators have to admit that Yang Qiu has created a miracle that is almost impossible to replicate!
William Hamel was extremely dissatisfied with this development, biting his cigar and snorting in his nose. He has always felt that Yang Qiu's success is not only in the early governance methods. It is mainly because of the inexplicable compromise at the last moment of the last silver crisis that China has been safe and stable for 6 years, otherwise how can there be money to challenge the skyscrapers!
"William. Why didn't you see Mr. Jacob? "A German businessman involved in speculation came over. This Jewish man named Brad used to be an analyst of a trust company in Germany, and when Yang Qiu visited Germany last time to introduce Jewish technicians, he went to Shanghai and opened his own trust company, attracting a lot of investment with his incorruptible tongue, and he took out 100 million yuan of the 1.7 billion empty orders this time.
William Hamill retracted his gaze and said playfully: "Mr. Jacob has returned to England, and I think he probably doesn't have time now." ”
The two of them smiled heartily, they all knew what was going on with the Wall Street stock market crash and the London empty order, but unfortunately they were all marginal people, and they couldn't participate in such a gamble of the century, so they could only pick up small bargains in the surrounding markets. Of course. If China falls into a low ebb of development due to the economic crisis in the United States, 1.7 billion can become tens or even tens of billions!
Brad curled his tongue with a thick German accent and said, "William, why do you say the Chinese have not saved the market until now?" Last week I heard that their bank was pulling money from all over the country...... Don't worry, the efficiency of the Bank of China has been slow, if it wasn't last time. "William Hamill just wanted to tell me about the great achievement of the last silver crisis that caught his opponent by surprise. But when I think of the final ending, I shut my mouth: "If you want to eat our sell-offs, you must raise enough funds and ensure that the stock market cannot continue to fall!" So they need a lot of money. Mr. Jacob had already called, and they would definitely have a little problem with their money in Europe not being able to return home. ”
Brad nodded, as if he had seen a huge profit, and laughed: "That's great! William, do you think that if Your Excellency Yang Qiu loses this time, will he still be able to come to power smoothly? ”
"It doesn't matter to us who comes to power, I'm only interested in money! When this time is over, I am ready to forcibly acquire some of His Excellency Yang Qiu's companies! He needs to pay for his arrogance! William Hamill's suggestion made Brad very impressed: "That's a good point! We can forcibly buy Jiangnan shares in the market, and then buy off other shareholders at a high price, and then inject several times the funds to dilute the equity after completing the holdings, and his business ...... That's ours! Ha. "What's more exciting than buying up the Chinese president's property? William Hanmill laughed as he took a cigar in his mouth, but before the laughter reached his throat, he suddenly saw more than a dozen Chinese tax policemen rushing in, and behind the tax policemen there were several men in black uniforms.
"Stop, this is Swire & Co."
"Fuck off, it's a private party!"
"Where are you from? I will accuse you. ”
Heavily armed tax police disrupted the party, and Swire & Co.'s bodyguards immediately stepped forward to stop it. Seeing that victory was imminent, William Hamill didn't want to cause trouble, so he waved his finger and asked everyone away, "Who are you?" Why did you ruin my party? ”
"Mr. William Hanmill?" A man in black uniform walked out. He took out a small red book from his pocket, opened it and shook it in front of William Hamill's eyes: "Investigator of the Economic Crime Section of the National Security Bureau of China, now we suspect that you and Swire & Co. are involved in financial fraud against our country. From now on, everything you say will be a testimony in court! We will temporarily freeze all of your company's assets in China. Stop all operations until the investigation is over! ”
William Hanmill was instantly stunned, financial fraud? Freeze all the funds?! Before he could come to his senses, Brad rushed over and scolded, "Bastards, you yellow-skinned monkeys, Mr. William is an upright man, he ...... Mr. Brad! The investigator kept a straight face, slowly turned his head and stared at Brad sharply: "Herman Trust Company is your company, right?" I'm sorry. You'll have to go back with us for an investigation too! Because someone reported that Your Excellency tried to undermine the normal financial order of our country and colluded with illegal businessmen to make huge profits, which has violated our national security law. ”
"National Security Law?!" Brad was furious and said angrily: "I am a German citizen, you are illegal, I will accuse you, I will ...... I hope you can cooperate with each other. Under our law, I have the right to shoot any suspect who tries to resist! The man's voice just fell. More than a dozen tax policemen brushed open the pistol safe, and the sound of Kaka's loading made the banquet hall suddenly fall silent. The man came between the two of them, and the corners of his mouth were sensitive: "I advise the two of you to cooperate better." At this special moment, countries are starting to fight financial crime, so I don't think Britain and Germany will declare war on our country because of the death of these two! ”
William Hanmill twitched the corner of his mouth, and the cigar fell to the ground suddenly, and Brad's hands and feet were even colder. Shameless, shameless! They were still preparing to celebrate just now, but they didn't expect that Yang Qiu would not have more money than money this time, and directly use the simplest way to deal with speculation in the financial market!
Early the next morning, a series of astonishing news suddenly broke out from Shanghai!
Swire Pacific was seized on suspicion of financial violations! The well-known Hermann Trust Company in the Far East was seized! Dutch Mantley Foreign Company was seized! Johnston Trust Insurance Company in the United States was seized! Wait, a full 47 well-known foreign-funded enterprises in Shanghai and the Far East were all sealed and frozen overnight! By the afternoon, bigger news broke. The funds of more than a dozen foreign banks in China, such as Citibank of the United States, HSBC Bank of the United Kingdom, Standard Chartered Bank, and Andrews Bank of France, have been temporarily frozen!
At the same time, the Shanghai Stock Exchange announced that it would temporarily freeze all transaction records before May 30, and wait for the Ministry of Justice to investigate whether there were any illegal operations before announcing whether the transactions were valid.
On the same day, thousands of enterprises and buyers across the country suddenly canceled all orders from foreign-funded enterprises in China, even if the cancellation would bring high fines. This round of cancellations is unprecedented. In just one week, more than 400 enterprises in China that entered China after the silver crisis, including Newport Huludao Shipyard, Nielsen Heilongjiang Oil Refinery, U.S. Steel Corporation Qingdao Branch, Hankou GE Electric China Branch, and Hangzhou Bay Branch of the U.S. Port Company, were all cancelled!
By noon on the third day, the biggest news broke out!
In view of the serious speculation in the domestic financial market and the possible economic recession, the Assembly of the Republic of China authorized the Presidential Office and the Ministry of Justice to use all means to combat financial crimes...... Everyone was stunned and speechless! What can you do without an order to recoup a full $4.2 billion investment? The domestic financial crisis in the United States has intensified, and the parent company is still waiting for overseas companies to transfuse blood to tide over the difficulties. The most important thing is that it is impossible to even absorb foreign orders for a settlement of one yuan! Well, I put up with this, so I settled it in RMB, but you *** stopped the exchange business!
"Protest! Protest! We want to protest! Hundreds of foreign businessmen held up slogans and brought technicians and hundreds of thousands of Chinese workers facing unemployment to the government of the Republic of China to protest the strongest protests, and the embassies of various countries in China were instantly overcrowded...... To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendation and monthly passes, and your support is my biggest motivation. )rq!!!
