Chapter 446: Land that Fake Accounts

Chapter 446: Land that Fake Accounts
"Now that we have decided to accept the audit request, what if Chen Zhiwen doesn't accept the accounts because they are too ugly, or exposes them directly?" Bao Fuda asked. Now that he has made a choice, he will not consider the other situation. Now he has to find a way After getting the money, as for meeting Chen Zhiwen who wants to acquire land again, let's take it one step at a time.

"The real accounting situation must not be shown to them. Let's optimize it. Anyway, it is a large amount of accounting. As long as it is not public, just hide it." Newbijian thought for a while and said, there is no way, Real Estate is in the real estate crisis The company had already suffered heavy losses, but in order to maintain the "face" of Jardine Land, this kind of thing could never be admitted. Therefore, it publicly promoted that the company's cash flow had no problem, and also paid employee dividends at the end of 82 and every quarter in 83. Dividends were also distributed to shareholders.

In fact, this is not an operation of Land, but also many other consortiums. Everyone is betting that the real estate crisis will end soon. Once it is over, the funding problem will naturally be solved.

It’s a pity that Jia Ning couldn’t bear it at the beginning of the year. It was strange at first, but after the Hong Kong government’s investigation, it turned out that the entire Jia Ning Group started by relying on “fraud” and through various false news. To increase the stock price, then use the stock price to borrow money, then buy land, then borrow money, and the endless matryoshka dolls.

During this process, Carnegie also cooperated with many consortiums, including Land, but now it has cheated Land, which almost made Niubijian vomit blood.

However, Land can still resist. However, the Hong Kong dollar exchange rate crisis that broke out in September almost caused Jardine Land to default on its overseas debt because it could not obtain enough foreign exchange. In mid-October, the Hong Kong government finally set an exchange rate of 9, which also made the previous exchange rate of HK$10 Jardine Matheson Land, which borrowed money from overseas, lost more than HK$7.8 billion out of thin air. This kind of loss can no longer be tolerated by Land, which is already full of loopholes. Without new funds coming in, Land cannot survive. Otherwise, they have to sell the Central Building. This is Land's last resort. They will not do this unless they have to. The Central Building is the fundamental lifeblood of Land, and doing so will destroy the confidence of Land's shareholders and will also Let the Keswick family come directly to drive them away.

"There are risks here." Bao Fuda thought for a moment and said, "Optimization" naturally means making false accounts, but people like them will not say such things. It is just a hint. It is a rule of the workplace to avoid ending up in the end. responsibility.

"There are definitely risks, but again, at worst, if we leave, no matter what we do, the result will not be worse than this." Newbijian said.Even if there is a legal risk, senior executives like them can easily get rid of responsibility. This is actually the default rule in the business world. If something happens, they will abandon the car to save the boss. Even many governments will turn a blind eye in many cases. Eyes, otherwise, if you do too much, all the internal companies will run away?External companies will not come in either.

But the premise is to do it in moderation and not to go too far. For example, the Jiani Group committed such a huge fraud involving tens of billions of funds, but the Hong Kong government only investigated step by step. However, when it later involved vicious criminal cases such as murder, it was The person who was killed was an auditor of a large overseas bank. This was simply a provocation to the basic principles of the entire society. Naturally, he was severely punished. Even other businessmen in Hong Kong believed that this was the right thing to do. Everyone should do business and play within the rules. , suddenly someone took a knife, who can agree to this?

"Okay, I'll arrange someone to do it now." Bao Fuda said.

"Be careful when choosing people. You can give these people a little more money. They must keep it secret." Newbijian added. Even if it is kept secret from the top management, these things themselves require many people to do it. How could these people not know? Woolen cloth?Moreover, your company's behavior itself is illegal. Even if you sign a confidentiality agreement and someone reports it, this agreement will be invalid. The only way is to give others enough benefits to make them willing to keep it secret.

Money can make a difference, but if it doesn't, then it's not enough.

"I know this, don't worry." Bao Fuda said: "I am responsible for this matter, and you need to coordinate the negotiations with Hisense. If this matter is settled, at least in terms of funds, we There’s no need to worry.”

Niubijian nodded and said: "Don't worry, I also know what to do."

He also understood what Bao Fuda meant. In terms of negotiation, the most important thing is whether the result can be successful, or what kind of benefits one side can achieve after success. But these are not the most important things now. The most important thing is to understand what Chen Zhiwen means. .

The most ideal situation is naturally that Chen Zhiwen sees that Yizhi Mutual Control is unable to do anything, so he only thinks about cooperating with Land on commercial loans.

……

Regarding Hisense Bank's request, Land did not reject or agree to it, but the feedback still needed to be discussed internally at an internal meeting.

At the same time, Zhou Jiayang also received some news. Dozens of financial actuaries within Real Estate were often called to meetings and often worked overtime. Others asked several questions but refused to answer.

"Looking at it this way, are these 47 people responsible for making false accounts?" Zhou Jiayang brought the collected information to Hisense Bank and analyzed it with Huo Jianning.

They handle matters in this process internally. Only when decisions involve a large amount of money or require a decision, they will go to the boss. This is also the right and responsibility granted to them by the boss after the company grows in size.

"That means we need to find someone among these 47 people who is willing to work for us?" Huo Jianning said.

"To be precise, there should be less than ten people." Zhou Jiayang shook his head and said: "Although there are 47 people involved in this matter, most of them are just workers and were assigned to do their own tasks. Although these people also know They may be making false accounts, but the specific circumstances are not clear, and it is difficult to obtain any evidence. Only a few people in the lead know everything and can obtain evidence."

"These people should be very special, right? They are the top executives of Real Estate? It will not be easy for you to deal with them, right?" Huo Jianning said with a smile.

"Money can make all the difference. I still don't believe there are still people who look down on money." Zhou Yang said with a smile: "But the annual salary of these people is usually around one million, so we probably have to pay a little more."

"Compared to the whole Land, this is just a drop in the bucket. The boss has been preparing for this for I don't know how long. Now it's finally time to reap the rewards." Huo Jianning said.Before serving as the general manager of Hisense Bank, Huo Jianning worked in the headquarters office next to Chen Zhiwen for a long time, responsible for delivering information about the boss and various companies under his company, or helping the boss collect some needed information. Among them, there were many cases of land acquisition, including various assets, properties, debts, shareholder information, overseas investments, etc. After becoming the general manager of Xinxin Bank, he also became one of the core figures of the entire group. He also knew the boss’s plans for Real Estate, which involved many years of We were even prepared in 74, and the boss at that time had just acquired Hutchison. In theory, we should go all out to save Hutchison.

He admired the boss's long-term layout.

"Of course, I have arranged for my men to contact these people. Fortunately, there are many ghosts among them. They are not willing to stay up late and work overtime. They still insist on going home every day." Zhou Jiayang said.

"Do you want to bribe the ghost guy?" Huo Jianning asked.

"What's wrong? The Jardine Department is still British-owned. It's different from us. Many core data and information are controlled by ghosts. But now Hong Kong is about to become the world of our Chinese businessmen. Those who understand current affairs are heroes. In general, You will find someone who is not stupid. Besides, no matter who is stronger or weaker, Chinese or British, I will give you US dollars, but they are real. Pounds are also fine." Zhou Jiayang said.

As senior executives of Hong Kong's top financial groups, they have special access to many major events, such as the Sino-British negotiations that have lasted for a year. They will know about every important matter earlier than many media.For example, the prerequisite for resolving the Hong Kong dollar exchange rate crisis is that the British side has given up its previous demands. From now on, the negotiations between the two parties have turned to how to achieve a smooth handover. In this regard, the British still have to find ways to Obtain more benefits, but the bottom line has changed, so everything is easy to say, and the rest will depend on time.

Of course, things like negotiations may also change, but this is not something they and these people can influence. The entire group has already decided on this matter. If you don't participate, you don't have to be indifferent. You just need to understand it in time.

"That's not bad. Gui Lao's betrayal may not be something Niubijian can imagine. He may have been leaving the Chinese in Yihe alone," Huo Jianning said.

"Then it depends on which lucky person is willing to do this." Zhou Jiayang nodded and said that it must be true that he is the lucky person, because as long as the other party agrees to his request, the benefits he will give will definitely not be enough. It will be small, and even wealth and freedom are no problem. As for the risk, it is not big. In theory, if you go to the Independent Commission Against Corruption to report it, even if you are involved in this matter, plus you have some connections, you should be able to get away. After all, it will not cause serious consequences. If there is a vicious criminal case, Hutchison Whampoa will try its best to ensure that he is fine, not because of conscience, but because he may be implicated.

"Okay, I'm waiting for your news, and I need to do it as soon as possible. Otherwise, if they finish the accounts and we don't get the evidence or the person willing to report it, we will be in trouble." Huo Jianning said.

"Okay, I'll tell you when there's news." Zhou Jiayang said.

Hong Kong, Taikoo Shing:

This is one of the best-located residential properties on Hong Kong Island. It is close to the seaside and the Central business district, and has therefore become a place where many company executives live.

"Mr. Smith, I wonder how you have considered what happened yesterday?" A tall white man was about to lock his car and go home, when suddenly there was a familiar business behind him.

"Why are you here? Only owners or tenants can enter here." Smith turned around and saw the man from yesterday and said in surprise. Just yesterday, he also met this man on the road when he got off work. The man was driving a Mercedes-Benz. He seemed to have some financial strength, told him his name and work experience, and invited him to have a cup of coffee.

Originally, he thought that this was a headhunter from some company. After all, at his financial level, it was normal for him to be targeted by headhunters. Even if he was in the largest British-owned company in Hong Kong, he would not refuse contact with the headhunter. Maybe there would be one. What about a better job?
Unexpectedly, after contacting him, he discovered that the other party was originally from a rival company and wanted to poach him as a spy. This made him angry. He was not that kind of person, so he just left the coffee money and left. English politeness.

But I didn't expect that he would come again today and even enter his own community.

"I am also the owner here." The visitor smiled and said, my boss owns several buildings in Taikoo Shing. In fact, many middle and high-level managers from Hutchison Whampoa live here. Of course, this does not include the real high-rises. He lives in Dabieye.

"Are you also the owner?" Smith had no doubts. It was unlikely that he was a poor person who could do such a thing, so he said: "Mr. Du, I told you clearly that I will not participate in this matter."

"Mr. Smith, there is no need to say anything so absolute. This is what we have prepared for you. If you agree, the data on it will be yours." After the person finished speaking, he placed an envelope in Smith's hand. on the car and then left.

Smith looked at Mr. Du leaving in the distance. He did not throw away the envelope directly. Instead, after hesitating for a moment, he opened it and took a look. When he saw the numbers on it, his face changed color and he stayed there for a long time. .

In the corner, Mr. Du, who saw all this from a distance, said with a smile: "It seems that I am also preparing to immigrate."
