226. Difficult task
The lawyer at Bari Bank immediately refuted Budinha's remarks about hiring a lawyer.
"As far as we know, before he became the elder, he himself had a certificate as a senior economist, which means that he actually had activities in the economic field for a long time, and it was not because he used the power in his hands to engage in economic activities to make profits after he became the elder, so I feel that the statement of the lawyer from the Budinha side is incorrect."
"Is an economist certificate different from being economically active?"
"Can economists be better able to engage in economic activities?"
"Theoretically, yes, but can you be sure that every economist can make money in the market economy?"
"I'm sure Elder Kimbem can, because there are so few people in the Philippines who have this certificate."
"Please pay attention to the wording, Kimbem is the predecessor of the elder, although he has unfortunately passed away, but he was impeached by the relevant departments of Budinia."
"Okay, I'll pay attention." This bit of verbal dispute is nothing to the lawyers at Barri.
Since the two sides have always revolved around the legality of Kimbem's income, and Budynia's lawyer team has been unable to convince the judge through effective language, they can only continue in the afternoon after arguing for most of the day.
Throughout the process, Vladimir basically rarely spoke, but picked up a pen and recorded some relevant content from time to time.
It wasn't until after the morning trial that he turned his attention to the executives around him.
"What better can you do?"
All of a sudden, the entire conference room fell silent, and everyone couldn't help frowning.
As a high-level and a member of the think tank, Andrei and his team naturally had to provide Fleikimir with all aspects of decision-making, but today's decisions seemed to be somewhat beyond their responsibilities.
"Andrey, tell me what you think." Vladimir asked.
Andre smiled: "Boss, in fact, the two sides are currently revolving around whether Kimbem's personal deposits are legal, to be honest, the standard of lawyers in those banks is the standard of interests of capitalists, and it is absolutely unreasonable to give an old man a remuneration of more than 10 million." ”
"Unreasonable but legal?" Vladimir questioned.
The question was addressed to Korzadovsky, who, after all, was familiar with international law.
"It depends on the definition of each country, at present, the relevant boundaries are very ambiguous, but it is absolutely abnormal to receive such a high remuneration as an elder, and it is recommended that it can be prosecuted through money laundering crimes, so that those companies will be investigated from the inside out, in all aspects."
Money laundering is a very serious crime in Western countries, once charged with money laundering, as for the consequences for the time being, but it will definitely make 99% of the world's enterprises show their big butts that they have no time to wipe clean.
Annual statements, income, taxes, employee treatment, as long as it is related to all aspects of money, need to be audited by the audit institute, even if many companies do not have this crime in the end, but tax evasion and embezzlement of company property will always be discovered.
Vladimir's eyes lit up, "Yes, why didn't we think that this could be prosecuted for this crime, in this case, it will definitely turn those companies upside down." ”
"Of course, boss, this is just my personal suggestion, as for whether I am sure to recover Kimbem's overseas deposits, I don't know."
"It's a good idea, if it's really money laundering convictions, most of us won't get the money back." "But we can sue those guys for partnering with Kimbem for embezzling state property in Budinia." ”
After saying that, Vladimir set his eyes on Zharkovsky.
Zarkovsky nodded subconsciously.
"Boss, in fact, the main thing at present is to distinguish between legal and illegal, such as the part of Kimbem that accepted bribes, which should be able to be taken back, and those are all conclusive evidence."
"What's that?" Vladimir frowned.
"$800 million, 11 percent of the total."
"This must be taken back, no matter how little mosquito meat is, it is still meat."
Vladimir summed up the opinions of the think tanks and asked Andrei to tell the lawyers that first of all, the $800 million in bribes must be returned, and today's trial is just the first trial, and there will definitely be a follow-up trial, and secondly, they will indict the companies that cooperated with Kimbem for money laundering.
"Becoming an Immortal"
The afternoon trial began at one o'clock, and the two sides continued to argue and argue.
The lawyer team of the Budinha side also insisted on the advice given to them by Vladimir at noon, and strongly stated that the $800 million must be returned immediately, and as for other illegal deposits in Kimbem, they said that they would not give up any opportunity, and even the genetic explosion of the fighting people in their bodies directly attacked the practices of those bank vampires.
……
In the evening, an old friend, Liu Zhixiong, came to his office.
After a brief greeting, Liu Zhixiong expressed his intention.
It turned out that Liu Zhixiong was going to attend a charity dinner, and he hoped that Vladimir would also be able to go with him.
"Got a beautiful woman?" He said half-jokingly, half-seriously.
Liu Zhixiong laughed: "How can the charity dinner be a paradise for men, of course, beautiful women are indispensable, I want to invite you to go with me mainly to help me think of a way, support tricks, and give me confidence." ”
"Soaking a girl is what you say is a career as big as the sky."
"It's not a pickled girl, a pickled girl can't be a secret."
"What's that?"
"Of course, the charity dinner will auction some items, but it's not a secret, the elders in China hope that I can auction "Ten Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains"."
"What's worth it about a painting?" Vladimir smiled slightly.
"This painting, old man, is one of the most famous painters in the history of our country. Created more than 1,000 years ago, it is no less than another famous painting, "Riverside Scene at Qingming Festival". ”
"This painting was snatched from your country's palace by the Ying people more than a hundred years ago, right?" Vladimir just searched the Internet for information about this picture, and now the owner of this painting is Duke Campbell.
"Yes, now the boss has given me the task of auctioning off this work."
"These robbers are really good at business, they robbed it more than a hundred years ago, and now they have actually changed into it, and they feel that they are completely the owners of this painting, I actually don't approve of you taking pictures."
Liu Zhixiong was a little embarrassed, "Old man, I don't take pictures, the old man can't deal with it, there is a major event next year, and this painting is of great value." ”
"Next year, it's still early, don't worry, old man." Vladimir pointed to the teacup as he spoke: "Drink some tea, I have liked your Huaxia tea recently." ”
After Liu Zhixiong heard this, his face was full of tears and laughter.
Of course, Vladimir is not in a hurry, it is the task given to Liu Zhixiong by the domestic elders.
