Maybe in the near future, Chen Zhiwen will also participate in residential investment, and there will be certain internal benefits at that time, but the house price in a few years may be very different from now, and it is naturally not a problem for employees to buy discounts, but the liquid will not return to the price of a few years ago.

The years after the year have become more leisurely, but for the Hilton Hotel, it is like sitting on pins and needles.

"Damn, this Du Guoming actually handed over our data to the police." In one of the hotel's offices, Silas lost his temper.

A few Chinese people next to him didn't dare to speak at all, and another American, Allen, shook his head and said: "No way, we can't fight the rich in this part of the capital." ”

At the end of last year, the Hilton Hotel and the owner Galaxy fell into a game, that is, one party wanted Du Guoming to tell the data, and the other party was unwilling, so under the condition that they could be investigated for criminal responsibility, Galaxy promised that even if Du Guoming entered, even if his assets were seized by the Hilton Hotel, he would give his family a large sum of money.

How much money to spend, is a sentence from the boss of Galaxy, but the Hilton Hotel is not good, the small money is not as good as the Galaxy, and the big money has to be agreed by the Hilton US headquarters, not to mention whether the US headquarters can agree, this is the process, and when the daylily is agreed, it is also cold, besides, even if it is not cold, the Galaxy side can increase the price in a few minutes, and Hilton will go through the process of applying for the approval of the US headquarters again?

And misappropriation of funds is even worse, doing this kind of thing at this juncture is easy to be discovered, and once you are caught, you will only die more miserably.

In the end, after nearly two months of tossing, Du Guoming still couldn't bear it after the New Year in the detention center, and told the Independent Commission Against Corruption and the police some secrets he knew that could not be disclosed and the data that Galaxy needed, and finally, the Independent Commission Against Corruption officially launched a comprehensive audit and investigation of the entire Hilton Hotel.

"So what now? In a few days, it will be fully investigated. Silas frowned and said, this kind of comprehensive investigation is a court-authorized investigation, which is completely different from an ordinary annual audit, and many secrets cannot withstand investigation.

Their hotel has no fraud on taxation, but there are a little loopholes for the owners and even the US headquarters, and many high-level executives have more or less problems, especially when someone makes internal responses, how can they withstand strict inspection? Once a few more people are identified, these people will also respond to themselves in order to protect themselves, which will only trigger a chain reaction.

"Now there is only one way, find Chen Zhiwen, he is the owner of the hotel, at the legal level, as long as he investigates, the police and the Independent Commission Against Corruption must investigate, he does not investigate, although the case has been filed, but it can still end with the best result." Hilton Legal said.

"This guy doesn't see me at all, so he can't let me block his office, right?" Silas frowned and said, after Du Guoming was arrested, they actually didn't want to make a big fuss, otherwise even if they won, the news would spread to the United States, which would be very bad for their future, but they didn't expect that Chen Zhiwen didn't like them at all, and only sent one of his subordinates to meet.

"Then we have to be sincere, for example, the statement of the last quarter of last year was changed to a profit dividend." The in-house counsel continued.

"That's okay too." Silas looked at Allen and said, "According to the actual accounts, the dividends for the fourth quarter of Galaxy will be issued, and at the same time, I will ask to see Chen Zhiwen." ”

"No problem." Alan nodded, he can't wait to end this matter now, as the person in charge of finance, he was investigated by the police on a large scale, no matter who had a problem, he could be involved.

"Chen Sheng, this is the annual dividend information of the last quarter that was just sent by the Hilton Hotel." Angel delivered the document she had just gotten to her boss as quickly as possible.

"Oh, so proactive." Chen Zhiwen had just looked at the financial information of Red Bull and was bored, and when he heard about Hilton's things, he immediately became interested.

I took it and opened it for a while, and said with a smile: "Last quarter's profit was 900,000 Hong Kong dollars, which is really fast." ”

"Now that the profit dividend is being sent, is the Hilton Hotel ready to admit defeat?" Angel said with a smile.

"It's only 900,000 Hong Kong dollars, and for a hotel in Central, this rate of return is not as good as depositing in the bank." Chen Zhiwen said disdainfully, if the property of the Hilton Hotel is converted into an office building, even if the real estate market is not very good now, the annual rent will have to be tens of millions.

"There's also a letter from Silas, the hotel's general manager, who wants to meet with me." Chen Zhiwen said again.

"Do you want to arrange it?" Angel asked.

"See you then." Chen Zhiwen nodded and said.

The next afternoon, in the presidential suite of the Mandarin Oriental Hotel, Chen Zhiwen met the man who controlled his biggest fortune.

"Chen Sheng, I'm very glad to meet you." Silas looked "sincere", as if the two had just met, and there was no contradiction.

"Mr. Silas, maybe we should have met a long time ago." Chen Zhiwen said with a light smile, since the purchase of the Hilton Hotel, Chen Zhiwen actually did not have much interest in seeing the management of the Hilton Hotel, he originally did not care about the value of the hotel, just arrange for his subordinates to operate, but he did not see it, the senior management of the Hilton Hotel actually did not send someone to come to know, although the hotel management has the absolute right to operate, but so faceless, it is also unexpected by Chen Zhiwen.

"It's all for business, Chen Sheng also knows that the economy has been bad recently, tourism and business travel are relatively poor, in order to get the maximum benefit for the owners, we can only go all out." Silas said with a smile.

"The business of this Mandarin Oriental Hotel is not bad, the location of the Hilton is much stronger than here, by the way, the Mandarin Oriental Hotel belongs to Hongkong Land, and Hongkong Land is a listed company, the general financial situation of the Mandarin Oriental Hotel, the financial report released by the securities exchange has information, I think the Hilton Hotel should not be worse than here, right?" Chen Zhiwen said indifferently.

"Chen Sheng, the location of the hotel is important, but it is not the only factor in deciding." Silas said calmly.

"That's management incompetence?" Chen Zhiwen said coldly.

“.” Silas was speechless for a while, and hurriedly changed the topic and said: "Chen Sheng, we may have had some misunderstandings in the past, but we are all partners, there is something to discuss together, there is no need to intervene in the company's affairs by government agencies such as the Independent Commission Against Corruption, otherwise, there will be a big problem with the hotel, Chen Sheng, you will also have a lot of losses." ”

"Not a small loss? Are you saying that you lost 300,000 in a quarter? Chen Zhiwen said with a smile.

"Now that the economy has picked up, I guarantee that it will definitely be the last time, and in the future, Chen Sheng's investment in the Hilton Hotel will definitely get a good return." Silas said.

"No one knows what will happen in the future, let's talk about the past, right?" Chen Zhiwen said lightly: "You and I both know what's going on, and I don't want to waste time, I want the Independent Commission Against Corruption to stop the investigation, yes, but the premise is that I will authorize a third party to conduct a comprehensive investigation of the finances of the entire hotel, starting from 1961, your financial information should be kept for 15 years, right?" That is, there should be all? ”

"In 1961?" Silas was taken aback and said, "Chen Sheng, the Hilton Hotel used to belong to the American Yonggao Group, and the previous things have nothing to do with you?" ”

"I bought the Hilton property from Yonggao, why does it have nothing to do with me? Or do you want me to contact Yonggao Corporation in the United States? Do you think they're willing to help you or help me? Chen Zhiwen said with a light smile, the previous Hilton Hotel was not too dark for Yonggao, and if it could make money, Yonggao might also turn a blind eye, or because it was not in Hong Kong, many things were not clear, but now, the cooperative relationship has long been gone, if you can make more money, who wouldn't be happy?

"Then if something is found, what does Chen Sheng think?" Silas asked.

"I only need the share that belongs to the owner, and in addition, in the future, the finance department of your hotel will give my people a position." Chen Zhiwen shrugged and said.

"This matter, no matter what the outcome is, will take a long time, I need to discuss it with the US headquarters, the operation of the Independent Commission Against Corruption is about to begin, and I ask Chen Sheng to delay it a little longer." Silas said with a frown.

"Don't think about it, either act or end, you think the Independent Commission Against Corruption is run by my family, you can do whatever you want?" Chen Zhiwen refused.

"Okay, if there is further news, I will inform Chen Sheng, and if there is nothing else, I will leave first." Silas saw that the negotiation was inappropriate, but he also got the other party's bottom line, so he said goodbye and left.

Chen Zhiwen didn't stay long, so he went home, and then told his father about it.

Chen Tianfu nodded and said: "You have handled it very well, it is not good to make a big deal with an international hotel group like Hilton, it is not good to be in a hurry, they will directly withdraw the current group of people from the United States, and then change a group of people, you have nothing to do, now the home field is in Hong Kong, you have an advantage, once this group of people all run back to the United States, the Hong Kong government may not have a way." ”

"I think so too, this kind of thing is actually to scare and scare the team here in Hong Kong, even if it is big, it can't threaten the Hilton Hotel." Chen Zhiwen smiled and said, a five-star hotel chain group that has existed for decades and spanned the world, what kind of wind and waves have not been touched, and which hotel team is clean?

What is happening in Hong Kong now will not necessarily be taken seriously by the United States when it is transmitted to the United States, but it is a big trouble for the team in Hong Kong now, Chen Zhiwen needs to handle the team in Hong Kong, let them spit out the previous inventory, how much they can spit out, and at the same time, they must be honest in the future.

As long as the other party is willing to give in and abide by the rules in the future, then everything will be normal, otherwise, if something is really found by the Independent Commission Against Corruption, Chen Zhiwen may not be able to do anything.

Three days later, Chen Zhiwen received an urgent fax from the Hilton Hotel again, and the hotel officially invited Chen Zhiwen, the owner, to arrange for a financial staff to stay in the hotel.

Five days later, as the owner, Chen Zhiwen dropped the lawsuit against the Hilton Hotel, and the investigation by the Independent Commission Against Corruption was terminated naturally, and at the same time, Chen Zhiwen invited Hong Kong's largest financial audit firm to start a comprehensive financial investigation of the Hilton Hotel.

It took half a month, Chen Zhiwen had more evidence in his hands, and it was not until this time that Silas and others found out that they were completely controlled by the other party, but they couldn't blame others, they were completely killed by themselves, this Hong Kong hotel, the US headquarters can't manage too much, and the owner's side is also in the United States, which is very rare in countless Hilton hotels.

Under normal circumstances, the owners are basically in the local area, and they also supervise the hotel management at all times, but there is no Hong Kong side at all, after a long time, they are naturally bigger, and more casual, many things have not been covered up, and now they are countered by the local owners, and some of them have been found out.

Although it is only a small part, if it is announced, they will either go to a cell in Hong Kong or go back to the United States, because the Hilton headquarters will not let them go

Eventually, as a last resort, they spit out most of their illegal profits.

"Looks like you've made a lot of money?" Chen Tianfu saw Chen Zhiwen sitting on the recliner dangling himself, and asked with a smile.

"It's just eight figures." Chen Zhiwen said with a smile.

"Eight figures? Ten million? Good guys, these people make more money than I did in my lifetime? Chen Tianfu was surprised.

"Normal, you also think about it, the five-star hotel in the prime area of Central has not been supervised for more than ten years, and even if there is, it may be dealt with, so it is not surprising that there are so many." Chen Zhiwen said with a smile: "I also deliberately left some for them." ”

"Then you can win big this time, and you didn't invest much before, right?" Chen Tianfu said with a smile.

"It's okay, and it happens to have a good relationship with the police, which may not be useful in the future, but it's better than when you need it." Chen Zhiwen nodded and said, "Besides, I don't care about 10 million." ”

“.” Chen Tianfu was speechless for a while, he didn't let him talk this day, your total assets and I are only more than 10 million.
