Five days later, Wei Jincheng's office.
Mr. Wei, who has always regarded Warren Buffett as his idol, has also imitated the appearance of the old bus. The office is located on the top floor of Yuanhu Building. It is a very inconspicuous rental area. Those who don’t know it don’t believe that this is the city’s three real estate companies. The headquarters of the company, two logistics express companies, and a land development company.
The more high-ranking he is, the more low-key he is. He only has a few cronies from the original Taoyuan Mansion by his side, and most of the business matters are left to the subordinates. Most of the time for this hands-off shopkeeper is leisure, Tasting tea, there are not many opportunities to focus as much as today.
Yes, not many, he has been staring at the webpage on the screen for a long time, he has counted several times, nine Arabic numerals, the number attracted his attention like magic, and made him think from time to time, There is confusion, anxiety, excitement, and fear in the eyes.
The number is 572354348, the number does not mean anything, but if a unit is added after the number: yuan. That surprised him.
This is the amount of funds raised that Xinghai announced to the public in the past three months. The official figure is so high that he seriously suspects that there is moisture, and it may be more than what he saw.
He looked at Yu Zui again, and Yu Zui was flipping through the newspaper thoughtfully. He couldn't understand many things about being a criminal policeman, especially this one, who talked less and less, and rarely talked about work matters. Don't talk about personal matters, most of the time when the two meet, they drink tea one cup after another, and then go to the bathroom one after another.
Finally, when Yu Zui inadvertently raised his eyelids, he saw Wei Jincheng's curious expression, and he casually asked, "What's wrong?"
"This is a kitchen knife to shave the head, and a detonator to hang around the neck." Wei Jincheng sighed.
"How?" Yu Zui asked casually.
"It's too precarious. Although everyone knows that fundraising is a snowball, but when it really rolls, how big it can go is still beyond your expectations." Wei Jincheng said, the more rapid accumulation of wealth, the more he felt palpitations. Numerous practices have proved that where there is more money, there are more right and wrong, which is more accurate than right and wrong at the widow's door.
"Your mind is disturbed." Yu Zui said, looking down at the newspaper again.
This attitude made Wei Jincheng unhappy, and he reminded: "Of course you don't feel it if you don't pay a penny. This is the funds raised in less than three months. The money I invested in from retail investors is also a few. Don't worry... If it's a hoax, then I'll be the biggest victim in Taiyuan's history."
Yu Zui glanced at the nervous Wei Jincheng, smiled, and said casually: "I thought you were so calm, but I can't bear it anymore, I'm betting on it, at worst, I'll be your pawn... With so much money, it's impossible Take it away easily? Hey, Wei, so much money, if you are asked to wash it, what will you do?"
"That is very troublesome. The most direct one is the underground bank that moves across the country. However, that kind of throughput is not large. There should be no underground bank in Taiyuan that dares to eat hundreds of millions at a time. No one dares to use it. It should be comprehensive. Don’t put all your eggs in one basket. For example, exchange trade, purchase insurance and then withdraw the insurance after leaving the country, if you use the method of ant to move a small amount of remittance, or bearer futures, bonds, or purchase offshore real estate... There are too many ways , I guess you won’t be able to learn it even after a year of study.” Wei Jincheng said, how treacherous a businessman is is beyond most people’s imagination.
"So, it's all so troublesome, and he can't move away in a short time, why are you in a hurry?" Yu Zui returned the words lightly.
"But if you want to move away, you won't be able to find it back. The best result is that you won't even be able to keep the principal." Wei Jincheng said.
"Then what's your idea? Withdraw now?" Yu Zui asked.
"This..." Wei Jincheng thought for a while, whether to withdraw or not was a matter of hesitation, because Xinghai's name was a halo, a company with a market value of several billion raised funds, and there were guarantees from state-owned financing guarantee companies and Shanbei Trust. If it wasn't for a policeman sitting in front of him, he wouldn't have any doubts about such financing. For them, a handicap of several hundred million would be a piece of cake.
Hehe... Yu Zui laughed, as if he was amused by Wei Jincheng's expression of worrying about gains and losses, he smiled and said: "Old Wei, can you stop being so worthless? After all, you are also a boss with a net worth of several billion... No wonder people say that the richer you are, the better you are." If you pick it up, you will lose it, can it make you jump off the building?"
"It's different. A businessman's sense of accomplishment comes from losing money. Just like when you are a policeman, no matter how many major cases you have solved, if you stumble in one case, it will greatly affect your sense of accomplishment and self-confidence. I really can afford it, but I don't want my business to be muddle-headed." Wei Jincheng said, a businessman who is as slippery as a loach, after all, has his own way of doing business, and the money that should be spent should be thrown away; what should not be wasted, must be penny baht He looked at Yu Zui unmoved, pouted his lips and urged, "What are you talking about, what are you looking at?"
"Looking for news... If you insist on asking me to talk, then I will. Step up the pace and invest more." Yu Zui said with a smile.
Wei Jincheng was so stimulated that blood rushed to his head, he was a little dizzy, he was used to being cautious and timid, he never dared to put all his eggs in one basket for this kind of business, he stared blankly at Yu Zui, and Yu Zui snapped the news he found Going in front of Wei Jincheng, he said, "I promise, there will be no problem with paying in the short term."
Wei Jincheng looked at it in astonishment. It was a negative report about Xinghai. The title was "Private Equity Market Swelling in the Mixed World". He took a cursory look at the financial section of the provincial newspaper. The Xinghai investment mentioned last time used words such as "outbreak", "suspected lack of supervision", etc., and even alluded to Xinghai's performance fraud, etc. The words were sharp, and the last sentence made Wei Jincheng's heart beat faster: Chinese investors cheated You can't stop cheating, don't underestimate this industry, this is an industry that can produce local tyrants every day.
"Is this someone giving them shit?" Wei Jincheng glanced at Yu Zui, and asked in astonishment for a while, "Is it you?"
"Really, I can't do this mental work." Yu Zui laughed.
"Then how do you know there is?" Wei Jincheng asked strangely.
"If you want to bring Xinghai down, the media is the most powerful weapon. If someone wants to use it, you must start here. I have been waiting for this." Yu Zui said.
"Then it seems like we should get out of the matter?" Wei Jincheng said nervously.
"On the contrary, this is the first round. When the opponent makes a move, Xinghai must parry. What do you think is the way to parry?" Yu Zui asked.
"Clarify the rumors and ensure normal operation... Oh, it seems to be right. At this time, they have to support it. The snowball of 500 million seems to be a little small." Wei Jincheng said.
"Yes, this is the right direction, wait for my call, don't worry, I will stay out of the matter, and I won't cheat you, cheating you will not do me any good...Let's go first." Yu Zui folded the newspaper and got up, Wei Jincheng stood up after him , Yu Zui patted Old Wei on the shoulder to signal to sit down, and said with a smile: "It's still the same sentence, it depends on your guts, maybe it's a crisis, maybe it's an opportunity, even if a person in a Ponzi scheme is smart, he can still do it." If you find gold, you will have a stronger sense of accomplishment."
Smiling, Yu Zui bid farewell and left. Wei Jincheng didn't send him off. He really wanted to discuss withdrawing, but after thinking about it, he was driven by his own thoughts, and in the end he couldn't hold back the urge of a businessman chasing profit. Calling the assistant, I arranged one thing: create a few more accounts, yes, all of them will be invested in Xinghai's online loan platform...
…
It's messed up, this small circle has never been impenetrable, and those customers who put their money on the platform worry about interest payment and security issues all the time, even if there is a little trouble, they will be jittery.
The financial department of Xinghai Investment was the first to feel the pressure. This morning, the number of users paying interest and withdrawing funds through online banking suddenly doubled, and the settlement pressure increased. An hour later, the number of retail investors who withdrew their funds and settled their accounts doubled again, and the financial staff who were tired of operations complained endlessly, and the consultation hotline was no longer available.
It wasn't until two hours later that Ge Zhanqi understood the problem. The provincial newspaper's report made him complain endlessly. With his assistant, he drove straight to the office building of the provincial newspaper.
Afterwards, investment representatives from the China Banking Regulatory Commission, Shanbei Trust, and Taihang Financial Investment all went to the provincial newspaper building. It was unexpected that a report would alarm several parties. Even the leaders of the city government asked about the matter. The newspaper’s reply was: The reports collected by the trainee reporter were published in the newspaper without strict review, and the newspaper is investigating the matter.
However, it was just to make up for it, and the loss was also caused. After discussing for a whole morning to return to the company, accidents continued here. Xinghai·Yilin Villa FD Project Investment Fund, Huahai Real Estate Project Investment Fund Phase I, Ruixiang Real Estate Investment Fund and other long-term fund projects Investors gathered in Jinzeyuan, clamoring to withdraw their capital and withdraw cash. The scene was quite heated, and they were already cursing, almost to the point of smashing the scene.
As soon as Ge Zhanqi returned to the company and showed up, he was surrounded. Those who signed papers to withdraw their capital, and those who chased after them for an explanation, were all anxious and extremely emotional. The two female assistants couldn't escape, and directly was pushed aside.
"Quiet, everyone, please give me a chance to explain. I just came back from the newspaper. This incident was deliberately slandered. Xinghai Investment is jointly guaranteed by Shanbei Trust and Taihang Financial Investment. It is impossible. As reported, there is a problem of non-payment." Ge Zhanqi yelled.
"It's okay to just say it with empty teeth?"
"There is a clause in the agreement, it can be cashed at any time."
"Yeah, it's better to lose the interest than the principal."
"Yes, we will pay."
The crowd was furious, and raised the list, almost throwing it in Ge Zhanqi's face.
"Quiet! Don't think that you are the uncle after you invested some money. Since you don't want to hear an explanation, then I won't explain it." Ge Zhanqi was angry and roared.
The audience was quiet, but everyone stared at him, and the conflict was almost imminent. Such an arrogant investor was rare.
"Just one sentence: pay immediately, according to the contract... But if you want to invest in it again, you won't be accepted. Assistant Yin, do it for them immediately, and deal with it according to the contract." Ge Zhanqi said coolly, and walked away.
This startled the crowd of investors who came here. They looked at the assistant with suspicion, but they didn't expect that the redemption would really start after a short wait. They were transferred by several people from the real estate company. The financial staff, according to the initial agreement, transferred the funds immediately, and a few anxiously got the principal into the account, but regretted it a bit. According to the agreement, the interest paid should be deducted, which is a lot of real money. Silver.
People’s mentality is still strange, you should give them real money, hey, they don’t want it anymore, but more than half of the long-term investment customers who were present didn’t invite them and ran away, leaving those who had already paid for it and slapped their heads. I regret the medicine.
The redemption on the online loan platform is still going on, but it's much more relaxed. It wasn't until the noon news and the theme news that the provincial newspaper reported that the Xinghai investment report in our city was inaccurate, and the trend gradually slowed down.
The dizziness swelled until the afternoon, and he even took a few painkillers. It was really uncomfortable to see the manager. Yin Rong reminded him to see a doctor. Mr. Ge waved his hand with an ugly face, and turned away the female assistant who had been caring for him.
The turmoil was forcibly suppressed, and it seemed that the remaining prestige was still lingering in Mr. Ge's chest. He closed his eyes and rested his mind for a long time, and then carefully dialed the phone: "Mr. Song, stop for a while, it's coming too fast, and I couldn't be prepared for it. Fortunately, the real estate company still has some cash flow on its books.”
"How big is the loss?" asked on the phone.
"The three projects of Xinghai, Huahai, and Ruixiang have withdrawn more than 40 million yuan, which has already been paid. The online loan platform needs to pay more than 60 million yuan, and it has not been completed yet. The accountants of the two companies can't stand it." Ge Zhanqi He said softly, hearing the silence on the phone, he said softly, "I'm sorry Mr. Song, I didn't look after the company for you, and I made you worry."
"It's okay, it's not your fault, try to keep the overall situation, this is the beginning. Suspend capital injection into real estate projects, and try our best to deal with this crisis." Said so on the phone, and then hung up.
After buttoning his phone, Ge Zhanqi let out a long sigh of relief. Finally, he passed the test. What he worried most about was not the investment, but the censure from Mr. Song. It seemed that Mr. Song was not going to hold him accountable...
…
The chaos in the small circle cannot be known to people outside the circle.
Yu Zui is someone outside the circle. He has been busy all day as usual, and the co-organizer is preparing for the stolen goods return conference. Many stolen cars were recovered, and the conference was held at the Gulou branch, which was already extremely busy because of this honor.
When he was busy, he became an idler. Looking at the progress of the case, the case files of Shang Xiaogang and several others had been handed over for prosecution. I closed the file with a blink of an eye. These people are destined to spend a long time in prison. I don’t know if they will regret it, but Yu Zui is indeed a pity for those female suspects, especially Yao Yao, who is only 24 years old. , In the Mood for Love, life for her has not yet begun, and it has basically come to an end.
The longer the policeman gets a deeper understanding of life, he will always have a sense of boredom lingering in his heart, especially after a major case is solved, and the portrait has experienced a catastrophe, and the shadow of the suspect’s tragedy will not be able to get out of the suspect’s tragedy for a long time, even if they What a sin to deserve death.
Yu Zui wondered if he had some kind of mental illness, unlike when he was a police officer, he wished to punish all the villains on the spot, wished to use all means to wipe out all the evils in the world.
He couldn't explain clearly, he fell asleep on the desk after thinking about it, and wanted to find Wang Shenxiu in the afternoon, he had promised Xiao Mengqi that he would go to persuade him, but he turned back halfway, and there was a saying It is said that people have their own aspirations, so why force it? It's just a woman I really like, so why not give up everything for her
Even if he used to be a lady!
Yu Zui could even guess that the traitor should be the woman he met when he was wandering in nightclubs in Guangzhou. Whether it was true or false, he couldn't figure it out, but he knew that people who fell in love were incurable, since everyone He was willing to give up his career, Yu Zui thought, persuasion by mouth alone would not work at all. Wang Shenxiu has not been at work for a few days, and is waiting for the team to approve his resignation.
Or, he is waiting for a policeman to finally keep his promise, and absenteeism without reason will lead to expulsion.
Walking, walking, there was a sense of sadness in his heart. Ma Peng died, Zhang Meng resigned, and now Wang Shenxiu is leaving again. Those brothers who used to struggle together, even if they stay, are still Suffering in hardships, this profession is really like a curse, whether you stick to it or give up, you will regret it!
Walking, walking... He unexpectedly discovered that he had arrived at the Vocational Technical College. At this time, he suddenly remembered that he was chasing a clue and came to find an unsolved mystery.
Bian Shuanglin's daughter, Bian Xiaomi!
When it was getting dark, he revealed his identity and wanted to see this girl. To his surprise, she was staying at the hotel. He invited Bian Xiaomi to him on campus. Unfortunately, the little girl was very sad for her father and her husband. The police also didn't like him very much. They were cold and dismissed Yu Zui with a few key words.
They are: I don't know, I haven't seen, and I haven't come back.
The conversation soon ended, Yu Zui watched the girl go back to the dormitory, he was surprised that he was the first one to disturb Bian Shuanglin's daughter. There should be something in the guess, but almost all the guesses are wrong, except for guessing something that might be tricked in the media. The thinking of that old crook, he thought to himself, might be more than one level higher than his.
The master's method is always simple and effective. But the simplest way is often the least likely and most incomprehensible way. After detecting the anesthesia robbery and the second fraud, it was discovered that it was really simple. The mentality of people being ashamed to speak up and not daring to call the police has repeatedly succeeded. It's easier to control those women. They are all greedy for money and afraid of accidents. If they don't report you, they scare Hou Yingchun and Chu Xiangping, two women with families and children.
Where will this master be? Where will it start
When he looked back, the smoggy sky did not see bright stars. Even the brightly lit city made people feel that it was so dark. Yu Zui walked along the wall. When he looked back, his expression was frozen. He did not look at the stars. He didn't look at the lights either, but his many years of criminal police career gave him a bit of a dangerous intuition.
Right next to him, slowly following a Mercedes-Benz SUV, approaching not far behind him, paused for a moment, and then stopped, Yu Zui's hand has slowly stretched to his waist, returning from Xi'an, has shot Not leaving, he knew that one day he would meet, but he didn't expect this day to come so soon.
Tap... The gun safety is on.
Tap... The car door opened.
