Reborn in Hong Kong as a Tycoon

Chapter 840 Greedy, Running (Two in One)

Big investment.

"Oh!"

Looking at the newspaper on the table, Zhong Zhengwen slapped the desk heavily: "Damn Qin Lan! Damn Lin Baicheng! How dare you fool me!"

On Zhong Zhengwen's desk, there are several newspapers, including the newspapers from the four major newspapers in Xiangjiang, and the headlines on the front page of each newspaper are reports of Carrian Group's financial fraud. It can be seen that the impact of this incident is considerable how big.

After reading the news in the newspaper, Zhong Zhengwen still doesn't understand why he was fooled by Lin Baicheng, and the other party's promise to give him a loan of one billion Hong Kong dollars was just to hold him back.

As an insider and participant, Zhong Zhengwen knew very well that the newspaper reports were true, so the evidence in his hand would not be of much use.

This is not the most important thing. The most important thing is that the evidence of carrian group's financial fraud was suddenly exposed. He had no preparations. As a participant, he would definitely be implicated, so he had no choice.

"Damn Chen Songqing, it's okay, why did you offend Lin Baicheng!"

Immediately afterwards, Zhong Zhengwen complained about Chen Songqing.If Chen Songqing hadn't offended Lin Baicheng, then Lin Baicheng would not have Hutchison Whampoa sell the shares of Carrian Group, let alone investigate Carrian Group, so that the financial fraud of Carrian Group would not be exposed so quickly .

"Jingle bell~~~"

The phone on the desk rang, and Zhong Zhengwen was a little afraid to answer it now. He was worried that it was the call from the bank and creditors.

Zhong Zhengwen’s business, the lending banks and creditors are very clear about what the company does, and know that the company has a deep cooperation with Carrian Group. Yida Investment even holds hundreds of millions of Hong Kong dollars in Carrian Group shares. If something happens to Carrian Group, , the company will inevitably be implicated and suffer heavy losses.

As long as the lending banks and creditors are smart enough, they will worry that Zhong Zhengwen won't be able to pay back the money and call for debts in advance.

"call!"

The phone rang for a while, and Zhong Zhengwen still picked up the phone after letting out a sigh of relief.Because he knew that if it was really a call from the bank and the creditor, it would be useless if he didn't answer it now, or even worse, because that would force the other party to come to collect the debt.

"Third brother, why did it take you so long to answer the phone?"

To Zhong Zhengwen's relief, the call was made by his elder brother Zhong Zhengsheng, who is now the head of the Zhong family.

"It's big brother, I have something to do here."

Zhong Zhengwen then replied, and said, "Brother, what can you do for me?"

Zhong Zhengsheng didn't delve into it, but said in a deep voice: "Third brother, something happened to Carrian Group, do you know about it?"

"I just read the newspaper." Zhong Zhengwen said.

Zhong Zhengsheng listened and asked, "Is the financial fraud of Carrian Group true or false? Is the report in the newspaper true?"

"it is true!"

After Zhong Zhengwen was silent for a moment, he still gave a real answer.There is no way to hide this matter, his elder brother will know the truth sooner or later.There's no point in lying now, not to mention he's not going to lie to his elder brother about it.

"Then how deeply are you involved with Carrian Group?" Zhong Zhengsheng's voice trembled.

There was another moment of silence, before Zhong Zhengwen said: "I am the major shareholder of Carrian Group."

"So, you knew about Carrian Group's financial fraud before? And you are still a participant?"

Zhong Zhengsheng is not stupid. He heard that he didn't know that his third brother was not implicated, but a deep participant.

"Ok!"

Zhong Zhengwen couldn't help asking: "Brother, what do you think I should do now?"

"You come back to the old house, I'll contact the second sister and the fourth brother, let them come to the old house together, let's discuss it together."

Zhong Zhengsheng thought for a while and said, after all, he is a real brother, and there is no hatred of conflict of interest. At this time, he must find a way to help his brother.

"Okay, I'll go back now."

Zhong Zhengwen put down the phone while talking, and after finding the company manager to explain, he left the company in a hurry.

When Zhong Zhengwen arrived at the company in the morning, it was in the early eight o'clock, because yesterday he made an appointment with Qin Lan and the others to continue to take stock of the assets needed for the loan at nine o'clock in the morning, so he came to the company early to work. Only then did he realize that something big happened, and he was fooled by the other party.Lin Baicheng already had the evidence of Carrian Group's financial fraud, so he didn't need the evidence of Chen Songqing's early violations.

When Zhong Zhengwen left the company, it was only 08:30, and when he returned to the old house, it was not yet nine o'clock.

Among the several brothers and sisters of the Zhong family, the family and property have been divided, and the old house has been allocated to the big house. Now the eldest Zhong Zhengsheng's family lives here.

Not long after Zhong Zhengwen arrived, the second child Zhong Yi and the fourth child Zhong Zhengwu arrived successively.

There was no politeness between brothers and sisters, and they directly talked about business.

Zhong Zheng said: "Third brother, tell us the truth now, how deep is your involvement with Carrian Group, have you participated in the financial fraud? How many assets are you connected with Carrian Group?"

"I supported Chen Songqing when he started his business in his early years, and he later brought me rich returns. When Carrian Group was established, I also supported it, and even became a major shareholder of Carrian Group."

"The reason why Carrian Group can develop and grow rapidly in a short period of time is financial fraud. I knew this from the beginning, but I kept it in mind. I didn't participate in it myself, but let me The manager of the company under my name is responsible for follow-up, so I am not a direct participant."

"As for assets, the company under my name is too deeply involved with Carrian Group."

"I won't go into details. You just need to know that I now hold 10% of Carrian Group's shares, and my Yida Investment has a loan of [-] million Hong Kong dollars due to the cooperation with Carrian Group."

Zhong Zhengwen told his general situation. Now, he has nothing to hide from his close relatives.

"Third brother, you are too courageous."

Zhong Zhengsheng couldn't help shaking his head after hearing this, but now is not the time to blame the other party, he said: "The company under your name is not at the point of insolvency, right?"

"That's not enough."

Zhong Zhengwen shook his head: "My company's loans are also used for investment, and the cooperation with Carrian Group is also an investment in real estate. After investment, it is also an asset. Although it is not to the point of insolvency, it is not far behind. Now the debt ratio is nearly [-]%."

The fourth son Zhong Zhengwu couldn't help but said: "With such a high debt ratio and so many loans, don't you think there is a problem?"

"At first, I didn't think much about it. Later, with more and more cooperation with Carrian Group, I realized that the company had too many loans. But at that time, I couldn't stop, so I could only talk to Chen Songqing. We will continue to cooperate and look forward to rising land prices and property markets.”

Zhong Zhengwen smiled helplessly, he is not stupid, it's not that he couldn't see the problem, but when he saw the problem, he found that he couldn't stop.Once it stops, it will face more problems and cause the company to collapse faster.

Zhong Yi pointed directly at the core: "In the final analysis, you are still too greedy."

Zhong Zhengwen was speechless. The reason why he got to this point was indeed because of greed.

"Let's not talk about the past."

Zhong Zhengsheng said aloud: "Let's help the third child think about how to get through this crisis."

Zhong Yi asked, "Third brother, how serious is Carrian Group's financial fraud? Is it just an impact on the company's stock price, or will the company go bankrupt if something goes wrong?"

Zhong Zhengwen heard the words and said: "If there are no accidents, the possibility of Carrian Group going bankrupt this time will be relatively high."

Before asking, Zhong Zhengwen took the initiative to explain: "First of all, Carrian Group's financial fraud is very serious. The company's net assets may only be [-] to [-] million Hong Kong dollars, or even not so much. The key is that Carrian Group's financial fraud this time It was revealed that, if there is no accident, the person behind the shot is Lin Baicheng, and he will never let go of this opportunity to keep Carrian Group alive."

"really."

Zhong Zhengsheng was not surprised: "When I saw Carrian Group's financial fraud report, the first thing I thought of was Lin Baicheng, the richest man in Xiangjiang. A while ago, Lin Baicheng had a conflict with Chen Songqing and wanted to suppress Chen Songqing and Carrian Group. Then something happened to Carrian Group, and it would be too coincidental to say that it has nothing to do with Lin Baicheng."

"Brother is right, it was Lin Baicheng who did this."

Zhong Zhengwen said: "Actually, the day before yesterday, I discovered that Lin Baicheng's people were investigating Chen Songqing. At that time, I wanted to use Chen Songqing's evidence of violations in exchange for loan support from Lin Baicheng. Talking about loans, but secretly found evidence from other places, and then exposed the evidence, which caught me off guard."

"What's going on? Tell me in detail," Zhong Zhengsheng said quickly.

Zhong Zhengwen immediately explained the details.

"You are confused!"

After hearing this, Zhong Zhengsheng pointed to Zhong Zhengwen: "At that time, you still want to borrow as much as one billion Hong Kong dollars from Lin Baicheng, but if you ask for a lower price, he may still agree. Also, since you know Lin Baicheng After the investigation, then you should take the opportunity to leave, hand over the evidence to Lin Baicheng, sell a favor, and at the same time sell the shares of Carrian Group in your hand, so that you can still have a lot of money."

"It's all right now, you were tricked by others, and you didn't leave any favours, maybe you offended them."

"Also, the stock price of Carrian Group is bound to plummet today. If Chen Songqing can't stabilize the situation in the future, needless to say, Carrian's stock price. Those shares in your hand might be worthless."

"Third brother, you are too greedy."

Zhong Zhengwen was still too greedy and made the worst choice, to the point where he is now.

"Getting a loan from Lin Baicheng is my last chance. If I don't try it, I will never be reconciled to anything."

Zhong Zhengwen also admitted that he was greedy, but if he was given another chance, he might still make the same choice.

As long as he gets a loan from Lin Baicheng, not only can all the problems of his company be solved, but it can also be improved to a higher level.And if he didn't take a gamble, his company might go bankrupt, and he might lose [-]% or more of his wealth. Compared with becoming poor, he would rather take a gamble.

Zhong Yi said: "Now is not the time to blame the third child, let's think about how to help him overcome this difficulty."

Zhong Zhengwu said: "Third brother must disown Chen Songqing and the Carrian Group."

"It's too late to get rid of the relationship now."

Zhong Zhengsheng shook his head, and said to Zhong Zhengwen, "Third brother, you have some evidence of Chen Songqing's violations, right?"

Zhong Zhengwen nodded: "Well, there are some."

"Okay, you give it to me."

Zhong Zheng said: "I'm going to find someone to help me connect, and try to find a way to meet with Lin Baicheng, and give him the evidence so that he won't hold you back. After all, the person who offended him was Chen Songqing, and someone helped him to be a middleman. It’s still possible to agree.”

"As for you, third child, take everything you can bring with you, and leave Xiangjiang immediately to avoid the limelight. If the worst happens, it's nothing more than not coming back to Xiangjiang in the future."

"As long as Lin Baicheng's side is dealt with, even if he is wanted by the Hong Kong government, that's not a big problem."

The Hong Kong government's wanted arrests are sometimes not very useful. For example, Ma Xiru, the founder of Oriental Press, was wanted for selling white fans, and went to Wandao, where he is still living a chic life.

But if he offends the richest man in Xiangjiang like Lin Baicheng, as long as Lin Baicheng is willing to pay a certain price, even if he escapes to other countries, he may be extradited back, so Lin Baicheng needs to be settled first.

"Do you want me to leave Xiangjiang?"

Zhong Zhengwen was a little hesitant. In Xiangjiang, he was a billionaire and a capital tycoon, but if he left Xiangjiang, even if he was not a bereaved dog, his wealth would be greatly reduced, and his social status would be greatly reduced, not to mention living in a strange area.

"Third brother, listen to elder brother."

Seeing this, Zhong Yi said: "Leave Xiangjiang first, wait and see, and come back if nothing happens. You don't want to be imprisoned in Stanley in the end, do you?"

"I listen to my brother."

Zhong Zhengwen was startled, and immediately agreed.For a rich man like him, it is absolutely unacceptable for him to go to jail.

Seeing this, Zhong Zhengsheng reassured, "Don't worry, third child, we will try our best to find a way to pour dirty water on Chen Songqing, and let Chen Songqing bear all the responsibilities."

"Big Brother, Second Sister, Fourth Brother, I will leave my affairs to you."

Zhong Zhengwen knew this was the only way to go, and hoped that everything would go well, and Chen Songqing would take care of everything.

"Why are you being polite to us? We are relatives."

"Yes, third brother."

"Third brother, even if you leave Xiangjiang, we will find time to see you."

After the Zhong brothers discussed it, Zhong Zhengwen left the old house without delay, ready to go back and pack up before leaving.

But when Zhong Zhengwen left the old house, Lin Baicheng brought people to the Hong Kong government and met the governor of Hong Kong, MacLehose.As Lin Baicheng's friendship with Mai Lihao, although it was a temporary decision to come to the Hong Kong government, he still saw Mai Lihao at the first time.
