Chapter 159: Stud is a kind of wisdom

Interrogation Room, Financial Crime Investigation Division, Federal Police, Canberra, Australia.

The fat Asian man, who was handcuffed and sat in the interrogation chair, said with a dejected expression: "I...... I am willing to accuse Luo Jiajun as a tainted witness. ”

Sitting across the interrogation chair was Senior Detective Lance Macaulay of the Financial Crime Bureau, who said with a smug smile on the corner of his mouth: "Isn't this enough?" Rest assured, as long as you cooperate with our efforts, not only will the charges against you be dropped, but the $1.3 million you have been seized will also be returned to you. ”

The fat Asian man pursed his lips and didn't speak, his body trembling slightly.

Macaulay smiled and said, "Okay, now can you tell us how you took advantage of the loopholes in financial transactions to engage in illegal transactions?" To make it clear, explain how you met, how to form a team, what each person in the team is responsible for, and how to distribute benefits. ”

The Asian fat man's mouth snorted, and he really wanted to refute the other party's words, what does it mean to take advantage of loopholes in financial transactions to engage in illegal transactions?

If the law does not prohibit it, it can be done.

But thinking about it so far, people are swords and I am fish and meat, and it doesn't make sense to say that.

"I met Luo Jiajun at an entrepreneur conference in March 2019, when she had just returned from Wall Street in the moldy country to start a business......"

London, the capital of the United Kingdom, the small black room of the Crime Prevention Section of the Financial Services Authority.

Two tall British police officers grabbed the arm of a young Asian man with a thin body and a pair of black-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose.

In front of the young man with glasses was a burly plainclothes policeman, who pinched the young man's jaw and said coldly: "You'd better explain honestly, otherwise you will bear the consequences." ”

The young Asian man wearing black-rimmed glasses said with a look of fear and determination: "I...... Everything I did was in line with the UK Finance Act and there was nothing to account for. ”

"Hmph-" The plainclothes policeman snorted coldly, "You despicable and shameless thief of China, you have stolen the wealth of our country by despicable means, and you are as hypocritical as the damned China, if you do not cooperate with my work, you will pay a heavy price for your actions." ”

As he spoke, the plainclothes policeman suddenly attacked the Chinese youth's stomach violently without warning.

It's like punching a punching bag.

"Ah......h

The Chinese youth let out a terrible cry.

"To say or not to say? If not, I'll beat you to death!" Rats like you who like to steal, I catch hundreds or thousands a year, and I have a way to deal with people like you......"

Under the double blow of the physical and mental blows of the plainclothes police, the Chinese youth finally failed to resist and was willing to cooperate with the Financial Crime Investigation Bureau of the United Kingdom to launch financial fraud charges against Luo Jiajun.

In addition to Australia and the United Kingdom, more than 70 members of the financial team in more than a dozen other countries, such as Germany, France, and Baieros, were arrested en masse in an instant.

These people are the financial team established by Luo Jiajun in a few years, and their business capabilities can definitely rank among the top 50 in the global digital currency team.

Moreover, they are not only proficient in the speculative trading of digital currencies, but also know the rules of the financial markets of various countries.

Jiang Sheng's huge amount of money is operated by these people, and it comes and goes between banks and financial institutions in various countries around the world.

To put it more simply, no evidence of a crime was left.

It's a pity that no matter how clever the operation skills are, no matter how familiar with the financial rules, they will pale in the face of power.

People don't play with you and don't collect evidence, but directly arrest people and use their fists to make you speak.

In front of the iron fist, these financial doctors, masters, and top traders were all wiped out.

After Luo Jiajun came out of the reception, he called the lawyer in Germany.

"What's going on now?"

"At present, they do not allow me to see the client, which is illegal, and I will complain to the judicial authorities."

Luo Jiajun wanted to say, when you complained that the daylily was cold, and was about to say something, Zhao Lin's phone rang, and after connecting and saying two words, he said: "Mr. Luo, your phone is from Australia." ”

Luo Jiajun said after connecting: "I am Luo Jiajun, may I ask who you are?" ”

"Haha, hello Miss Luo, I'm Lance Macaulay, Senior Agent of the Financial Crime Investigation Bureau of the Federal Police. Nice to meet you. ”

Out of instinct, Luo Jiajun's heart couldn't help beating a few times, and asked, "Hello Mr. Macaulay, is there anything you called me for?" ”

Macaulay smiled: "Miss Luo, your staff is a guest with us, and he has said some deeds about Miss Luo, and I am very admired!" A student who studied abroad empty-handed and had nothing, after returning to China, it took less than five years to earn money that ordinary people can't make in a lifetime, and there are some advantages compared to Miss Luo. ”

Luo Jiajun was irritated by Macaulay's flirtatious tone, "Mr. Macaulay, I don't like the way you speak, how much money I make doesn't seem to have anything to do with you, if you call me just to tease me, then you succeeded." If nothing else, I'll hang up. ”

"Wait a minute, Miss Luo." Macaulay hurriedly shouted, "I called you to tell you that your subordinate Simon has confessed that he was instructed by you to carry out more than 1,000 illegal transactions involving up to $700 million over a period of five years. ”

Luo Jiajun raised his eyebrows and asked, "The law is not set by you, you say that it is an illegal transaction, it is an illegal transaction?" How do I remember that all of our transactions are legal and compliant? ”

Macaulay said calmly: "But Simon has pleaded guilty, and he will accuse you as a tainted witness of engaging in financial fraud transactions in Australia." ”

"So what is the purpose of your call to me?"

"The purpose is very simple, if Miss Luo pleads guilty and repents, we will only impose a punitive fine on you."

"Oh, how much?"

"We'll let you know the exact amount next time......"

Waiting for Luo Jiajun to hang up the phone, Zhao Lin, an assistant on the side, asked, "How about Mr. Luo, what are you talking about over there?" ”

Luo Jiajun sneered: "They want to cut leeks like Zhao Changhai, they think beautifully!" ”

Although the people arrested were all core members of the digital currency trading team, she no longer engaged in virtual currency trading, and instead devoted all her energy to the operation of Jiang Sheng's huge amount of funds.

Jiang Sheng has brought astronomical amounts of funds and assets from the Middle East, Siam, and Japan, and she is too busy to speculate on virtual currency.

And the traders who operate Jiang Sheng's funds, all of them are in Xiangjiang and Huaguo, because they are worried that they will be cut leeks by those elites abroad who can't afford to play.

However, although he decided not to compromise, after all, he was once a comrade-in-arms who made money together, and seeing them all arrested, Luo Jiajun couldn't help but feel a little sad in his heart.

Thinking about whether to tell Jiang Sheng?

……

Manila, Philippines.

Jiang Sheng grabbed Daniel, the boss of the Black Wolf Gang, the largest gang in the Tivinov district, and after using hypnosis, he easily found the mastermind behind the whole thing - Liang Zhengyuan, a native of Singapore.

Based on the information he had, Jiang Sheng pieced together the cause and effect of the whole thing.

Liang Zhengyuan asked Daniel to invite Jiang Yuanzhou to Manila to participate in the UFC fighting competition, and then Daniel contacted the middleman Big Mark, and Big Mark then found a young lady to frame Jiang Yuanzhou and lure him to Manila.

Then Liang Zhengyuan sent killers to kill him.

Except for the accidental killing of the young lady, everything else is performed according to the script.

It's just that Daniel and Liang Zhengyuan didn't expect it, they just wanted to fish, but they didn't expect to catch a "prehistoric giant crocodile".

Jiang Sheng slapped Daniel to death, and then went straight to the Soler Casino Hotel in Makati District.

The distance was only a few kilometers, and Jiang Sheng came over in a blink of an eye.

Then under the leadership of the person in charge of the casino who was hypnotized, he took the elevator to the super VIP gambling hall on the eighteenth floor.

came to the door of the gambling hall, under Jiang Sheng's order, the person in charge asked all the surrounding staff to leave, and then the person in charge stood at the door like a little minion and acted as a doorman.

Pulling open the door of the gambling hall, Jiang Sheng walked in.

The door suddenly opened, and a stranger entered, and seven or eight gamblers from all over the world, as well as his men, all looked at him.

The captain in charge of security inside the gambling hall immediately came over and asked, "Who are you looking for?" ”

Jiang Sheng looked at him with a look and said coldly: "Get out of the way." ”

The most important thing in hypnotism itself is mental power, and the hypnotism of 17.78 + LV3 before is already very terrifying.

Now his mental power has reached a terrifying 20 points.

20 points is not as simple as 2 times that of ordinary people, it may be 20 times, or even 40~50 times.

In addition to hypnosis, his own kung fu has been practiced to Danjin, and he has also practiced "fist intent", ordinary people will feel scared when they see him boxing, and his gestures are unparalleled deterrent.

It is already possible to surrender without a fight!

An ordinary person like the security captain, under his mental impact, his originally sharp eyes instantly became cloudy and confused, and he said in a daze: "Okay! ”

Then he walked over and stood there motionless.

Several other subordinates, seeing that the captain was motionless, thought that it was some great big man, and immediately stood back in place.

However, at this moment, the mixed-race young man and the bodyguard sitting in the position immediately recognized Jiang Sheng's identity.

Liang Zhengyuan stood up suddenly, and the bodyguards also protected Liang Zhengyuan behind him as if they were facing a great enemy.

Jiang Sheng didn't know Liang Zhengyuan at a glance, but Liang Zhengyuan stood up at this time, and with a shocked look on his face, it was estimated that it should be him, so he moved under his feet and came to him in an instant.

The bodyguard said in fear: "You...... What do you want? ”

As he spoke, a punch hit Jiang Sheng's face, and Jiang Sheng's right palm came first, and he slapped the bodyguard in the face.

"Smack-"

Jiang Sheng's strength had reached an appalling level, and his fluttering slap was, without exaggeration, like an iron rod with a thigh-diameter diameter that smashed horizontally into his face at a speed of more than 60 yards per hour.

The bodyguard was swept out sideways.

It was really like getting your feet off the ground and flying out with your upper body diagonally.

Bang's pair hit the wall, leaving a trail of bloodstains, and if you look closely, you will find that half of the bodyguard's face has been sunken, his cheekbones are all shattered, and his eyes are bulging, which is very terrifying.

But it can be regarded as merciful to his subordinates, and he has been spared a life, otherwise his hand speed is a little faster, and a slap can knock his head away, and his body is still standing in place......

Jiang Sheng walked next to Liang Zhengyuan, and then, like a fly, patted the rich businessman who was sitting next to him and knew that he was not a small person at a glance.

However, this time it was skillful, and the rich merchant fell to the ground, but he did not break his bones like a bodyguard.

Jiang Sheng sat down in the seat of the wealthy businessman, greeted Liang Zhengyuan with a smile, and said, "Come, sit down, and continue to play." ”

On the other side, the assistant of the rich businessman immediately came up to support the boss, and the rich businessman turned to shout angrily: "You dare to beat me, you know ......"

Without waiting for him to finish speaking, Jiang Sheng glanced at him and said in a cold tone: "Don't talk when you stand aside." ”

The spirit and willpower of the rich businessman were not even as good as the security captain, so his mind was taken away in an instant, and he walked behind Jiang Sheng about a position without saying a word.

When the assistant saw this scene, he also felt incredulous, his boss has always had a bad temper, and now he was pushed to the ground by a livelihood, and it was really strange that he could endure it.

But the boss didn't speak, and he didn't dare to speak.

The key is that Jiang Sheng's momentum is too strong, so strong that he feels that as long as he dares to say a superfluous nonsense, he will lie on the ground like Liang Zhengyuan's bodyguard.

The other people at the table also sensed that something was wrong with the rich businessman, but under Jiang Sheng's terrifying aura, they didn't dare to make a sound.

In the super VIP gambling hall, it became extremely weird for a while.

In the face of Jiang Sheng's terrifying spiritual coercion, Liang Zhengyuan did not have the courage to refuse at all.

Sitting down tremblingly, I only felt extremely regretful in my heart at this time, I knew that I wouldn't provoke him, but now it doesn't make sense to say that.

Jiang Sheng said to the stunned dealer: "Look at what, deal cards!" ”

Under the pressure of Jiang Sheng's momentum, the dealer had no choice but to be forced to deal cards.

"What card is this?"

"Stud."

Stud, also known as "Hong Kong-style five-zhang", is mainly popular in Guangdong, Xiangjiang and Haojiang regions of China, and is especially popular in the Philippines.

Stud uses 52 cards, five for each person, and is similar in form to Texas Hold'em.

Stud's rules are that a straight flush> an iron branch (bomb, 4 cards of the same rank + any one), > captives (full house, 3 cards of the same rank + 2 cards of the same rank), > suit (5 cards of the same suit), > straight (snake, 5 cards in consecutive order), > three of a kind (3 cards of the same rank), > two pairs> single pair >High Cards.

"Mr. Johnson, please speak."

The young man from Europe hesitated for a few seconds and then said, "100,000 (in dollars, the peso is too big). ”

Then the other gamblers who were about to leave saw that someone was taking the lead, so they also bet.

After all, it's rare to save a high-end game, so it's a pity to scatter like this.

"With 100,000."

"With 100,000."

“……”

Continue to deal the cards.

"Mr. Liu, one to 7, please speak."

"200,000."

"200,000."

"200,000, 200,000 bigger than you."

"I don't want ......"

When it was Liang Zhengyuan's turn in the third round, he finally couldn't help the powerful torment in his heart, and begged for mercy in Chinese: "I'm sorry Mr. Jiang, it's my ghost's trick, I shouldn't be instigated to deal with you, it's all my fault, I make amends to you." ”

"If an apology is useful, what else do you need the police to do?" Jiang Sheng said lightly, "Hurry up and place a bet." ”

Liang Zhengyuan's face was extremely ugly.

His family is a wealthy oil dealer and oil refining company in Southeast Asia, with a myriad of assets, including 37 VLCC (extra-large) tankers.

VLCC is the English abbreviation of Very Large Crude Carrier, and its deadweight is generally between 200,000 tons and 300,000 tons, which is equivalent to the shipment of 2 million barrels of crude oil, and there are about 400 VLCCs built in the world.

The market price of a VLCC tanker is about $250 million.

In other words, his family's oil tanker alone is worth more than $9 billion.

As the heir of the family, he is full of stars everywhere he goes, and it is a matter of one sentence to clean up who he wants, but he didn't expect to kick the iron plate this time.

wanted to get angry and threaten, but thinking of those appalling deeds about Jiang Sheng, he finally suppressed the flame in his heart, and the porcelain did not fight with the crockpot.

"With 500,000, you are 500,000 ......"

……

Minutes and seconds passed.

The chips in front of Jiang Sheng were piled up higher and higher.

With his unforgettable memory and super eyesight, he can basically write down every card, and he knows exactly what the hole cards are in anyone's hand.

So it's a sure thing that he won.

Finally, it was his turn to have a hard time with Liang Zhengyuan.

Jiang Shengming's card is 3 with one, and the next one is a hidden card is a miscellaneous card, that is, 3 with two miscellaneous cards.

The bright cards on Liang Zhengyuan's table are two pairs, and the next hidden card is a miscellaneous card, which cannot form a "captive".

So the open card is Jiang Sheng's win, and in fact, Jiang Sheng's win.

But outsiders don't know, because if Liang Zhengyuan's hidden cards add up to form a captive, then it will be greater than the captive formed by Jiang Sheng, unless Jiang Sheng's hidden cards are the same as three of a kind, forming a "bomb" card.

"1 million."

"With 1 million."

Liang Zhengyuan raised several times, giving outsiders the feeling that he wanted to scare Jiang Sheng's cards away, but in fact he just wanted to send some money to Jiang Sheng, so he should make amends.

After a few rounds he was ready to fold.

However, at this moment, Jiang Sheng glanced at him and said sarcastically coldly: "Why don't you dare to go down?" The super-rich second generation, who is worth tens of billions of dollars, can't afford to lose so much money? ”

This kind of pediatric agitation method, Liang Zhengyuan, a wealthy N generation who grew up in a deceitful businessman's family, is theoretically impossible to be fooled.

However, the truth was not what everyone expected.

Liang Zhengyuan seemed to be a ghost, and said angrily: "Am I afraid that you won't succeed?" 10 million, and then 10 million bigger than you. ”

"$50 million."

"$100 million."

Jiang Sheng sneered: "Do you have that much money? ”

Liang Zhengyuan said excitedly: "With my three words Liang Zhengyuan, any of the four major casinos in the Philippines can get a credit of 1 billion US dollars." ”

Jiang Sheng immediately asked people to call the general manager of Soler Casino.

The general manager was also surprised by the sudden Jiang Sheng, but the gambling game had reached this point, and it was impossible to stop.

And their casino's draw is very high, like this high-end game, the draw can reach 10 points, that is, $10 million, they don't need to take any risk, they can make $1 million for nothing.

He made a phone call to ask the big boss behind the scenes, and then nodded and said: "We, Soler Casino, provide Mr. Liang with a $1 billion unpledged credit." ”

Of the four major casinos in the Philippines, only their Soler casino dared to give Liang Zhengyuan a $1 billion unpledged credit, and the other three casinos really didn't dare to, at most $100 million.

Because the big boss behind the Soler casino is the Philippine military, they are not afraid of Liang Zhengyuan's family at all.

If they dare not admit it, the Philippine military will dare to seize their oil tankers.

After a pause, the casino manager asked, "I don't know this Mr. Jiang, what about your funds?" ”

Jiang Sheng made a phone call, and soon the Philippine branch of Xiangjiang International Bank sent a manager over and signed a credit guarantee of up to $5 billion on the spot.

Most of the money that Jiang Sheng recovered from the Middle East, Siam, and Nibon was stored in the Xiangjiang International Bank, so the Xiangjiang Bank was not worried that he would not have the money to repay.

"Go on."

"$200 million."

"I'll give you $200 million."

"200 million."

"$200 million ...... with you"

Although the gamblers on the table are all rich and wealthy people from all over the world, but after a gambling game, it is generally a thousand dollars to win or lose, which is already remarkable, and this amount of money has not been touched for a long time in the world's major casinos.

Now hundreds of millions of dollars are down, which is simply appalling.

Except for Jiang Sheng and Liang Zhengyuan's family, none of the other five or six rich people could come up with so much cash.

Therefore, it is also dumbfounded.

It looks like a child playing at home, you pay $100 million, I pay $200 million.

I don't dare to act like this in the movie.

But who would dare to believe that this TM turned out to be real gold and platinum put on the table?

When they came back to their senses, everyone was so excited that they couldn't be more excited.

And Liang Zhengyuan looked extremely excited at this time.

The $1 billion unpledged credit investigation was lost in a blink of an eye.

Then Jiang Sheng asked, "Is there any money?" If you have money, you will continue to play, and if you don't have money, you will get out. ”

Jiang Sheng's "radical method" that he didn't even bother to perfunctory, even a three-year-old child felt fake, but Liang Zhengyuan seemed to have been greatly insulted, "Who doesn't have money?" I have a lot of money! Go on. ”

"Well, I'm sorry Mr. Liang, your maximum unpledged credit is $1 billion."

"Who says there's no pledge? I own a 17.8% stake in ExxonMobil Singapore at a market price of $14 billion, which is worth $7 billion even at half price, and I can pledge it now. ”

"This ......"

When the casino manager heard his words, how could he dare to agree easily?

$1 billion is far beyond his ability, and it needs the consent of the big boss behind the scenes, and now 17.8% of ExxonMobil's shares in Singapore are pledged, which will definitely shock the world once it is exposed.

The Singapore side can also cause a major earthquake.

He hurriedly called the big boss.

Soon, Quentin Tuttle, the majority shareholder behind the Soler Casino and a high-ranking Philippine military executive, rushed to hear the news.

Quentin Tuttle knew Liang Zhengyuan's father.

Looking at the situation at the scene, I was also surprised, this Nima Ming card two pairs dare to play 1 billion US dollars, if the Ming card is three generations one, Liang Zhengyuan must not bet the entire Liang family on it?

He frowned and said, "Vincent, let's stop for today." ”

Without waiting for Liang Zhengyuan to speak, Jiang Sheng said indifferently: "Shut up!" ”

As he spoke, he moved his body and came to Tuttle, looking at him with a pair of eyes like a dead man: "If you dare to say a word of nonsense again, I will send you to the western sky." ”

In the face of Jiang Sheng's threat, Tuttle, a dignified Philippine military high-ranking person, was like falling into an ice cave, cold from head to toe.

There is even an urge to kneel down and prostrate on the ground.

Tuttle was extremely frightened in his heart, although he had long known Jiang Sheng's background and origin, but he really faced him and knew what a terrifying person he was?

Why would the heirs of the Siamese Army, and even the king, pay to send this terrifying humanoid monster out of the country?

Now it seems that this is the most correct thing that the Siamese royal family and the military hierarchy have done!

He told himself in his heart not to die.

There is no need to put yourself in danger for the sake of an outsider.

"That...... Good. Mickey, contact a lawyer immediately for an equity appraisal. ”

Equity pledge is very troublesome in any country, not to mention that Liang Zhengyuan himself is still from Singapore, and the pledged equity company also belongs to Singapore, and it is extremely cumbersome to pledge across regions.

It's hard to get it under normal circumstances.

However, the casinos themselves are in this business, and they are proficient in various formalities, including valuation.

But even then, it took an hour to get it all done.

Everyone waited quietly.

This kind of epic gamble is only once in a lifetime, and it will not be encountered a second time.

So everyone was quietly waiting.

17.8% stake in ExxonMobil Singapore with a market value of US$14 billion and an appraised value of US$11 billion.

ExxonMobil Singapore is a high-quality asset and it is absolutely impossible to assess 78.5% of the value if it is exchanged for a general company.

Of course, the appraisal price is the appraisal price, and it is not possible to calculate it in cash.

The stock price can only be discounted by 5%, or even 4%.

And such a huge equity pledge, the handling fee alone is an astronomical amount.

"This fund is far beyond the capacity of our Soler Hotel Casino, and the Philippine National Bank is not willing to provide a financial guarantee for this, so it can only be negotiated privately between the two of you, and we at the Soler Hotel Casino can only guarantee the fairness and justice of this competition."

The subtext of Tuttle is that whether or not you can get the money is up to you.

Jiang Sheng looked at Tuttle and said, "You can't provide a financial guarantee, why do you charge such a high commission?" ”

"Uh...... For $1 billion in credit, we take a 10% commission, and we don't charge any fees for this amount. ”

"Yes!"

Jiang Sheng is never afraid of anyone defaulting on his debts.

"Okay!" Jiang Sheng nodded, then looked at Liang Zhengyuan, who had already sat diagonally opposite, and shouted: "Stud!" ”

Liang Zhengyuan had gradually recovered his sanity at this time, but after being yelled at by him, he immediately subconsciously followed: "Stud!" ”

Push all the chips, equity pledges, contracts, etc. in front of you to the table.

Deal.

Jiang Sheng three of a kind with two miscellaneous cards.

Liang Zhengyuan two pairs with a miscellaneous card.

Jiang Sheng wins!

"Ah......h

Except for Jiang Sheng, everyone else in the VIP hall was stunned.
