After these rich people discovered that the newcomers started to behave unruly, they urgently needed someone to calm down the situation.
As for who is most suitable to come out to control the situation in Hong Kong Island, it is naturally Sir Zhang, the god of death.
They need Sir Zhang to use thunderous means to warn some new comers and let them know how miserable the consequences will be for not following the rules on Hong Kong Island.
So the United Wealth Group came into being.
Zhang Pin naturally has a rough idea of what these people think.
He did not openly oppose these people's ideas. Anyway, he had obtained the rights first. It was naturally up to Sir Zhang to decide whether to cooperate with these people.
However, although the rights have been obtained, Sir Zhang is actually a layman on how to combat money laundering.
And Sir Zhang also has a secret that only he knows, that is, he has a gold-swallowing system.
The biggest ability of this system is to make Sir Zhang stronger by charging money.
In previous cases, if he was not particularly confident, Sir Zhang would rarely add money to the system.
After all, he knew in his heart that there were not so many fools in the world.
Although the matter of charging money into the system seems to be unsolvable, because after charging money into the system, others have no evidence to prove that Sir Zhang took the money.
But many times, many things do not actually require evidence.
For example, when it comes to charging money into the system, if someone is investigating and discovers that a lot of money in the case in which Sir Zhang was involved has disappeared, then someone will inevitably suspect Zhang Pin.
Now suddenly a very suitable opportunity to top up money fell into the hands of Sir Zhang.
In previous cases, the amount of stolen money has often been determined in advance. If Sir Zhang wants to use this money to top up, he will lose a lot of money out of thin air.
But black money is different.
Whether it is a money laundering organization or a guy with black money, if they are robbed of their money, they will often choose to settle the matter.
For Sir Zhang, this is naturally a very worthwhile thing.
“Tell me something if you have something to say.”
Zhang Pin may have guessed what Lu Zhilian was thinking. After all, he personally handed over Li Li to Yang Jianhua and took him away.
And after the other party got rid of Hu Zhiyong in a high-profile manner, they suddenly calmed down and started celebrating, as if they had forgotten about the Jockey Club case.
Although the killer of that case had been killed, and Zhou Xingxing had already submitted a case closure report to the Wan Chai Police Station, they had personally learned about the banker of the Jockey Club peripheral gambling bureau from Li Li. It's from Shenhua Mountain.
"That's it. According to our information at the customs, it has been confirmed that Benjamin will take a flight to Hong Kong Island tomorrow afternoon. Sir Zhang, do you want to cooperate again?"
Lu Zhilian When talking about Benjamin, his expression was very excited.
Originally, he had no plan to deal with Benjamin. He thought that he would be satisfied if he could deal with Hu Zhiyong and Shen Huashan, the two big tigers in Hong Kong Island.
Before openly arresting Benjamin, it was only with the mentality of taking advantage of the situation and taking advantage of it.
Unexpectedly, just when he was declaring control over Shen Huashan, he suddenly saw a familiar name in the visitor invitation from the other party's administration.
So Lu Zhilian, who was originally planning to independently investigate the Shen Huashan case, invited Zhang Pin and others to work together.
After experiencing Hu Zhiyong’s case, Lu Zhilian also learned wisely.
He knew that wealthy bosses like Shen Huashan and Benjamin, even if they didn't usually show off, would definitely encounter some resistance when they really wanted to deal with each other.
For safety reasons, he naturally wanted to get himself an insurance policy.
Moreover, the last cooperation between the two parties was very pleasant, and there was no competition for credit between the two parties.
“It’s really here.”
Hearing Lu Zhilian’s words, Zhang Pin was also a little surprised.
Naturally, he also knew about Benjamin.
But the other party is a force from Europe and the United States, and he has no intention of fighting the evil forces for the people there.
So I just knew that there was such a person, but now I didn’t expect that after the Independent Commission Against Corruption arrested Hu Zhiyong, the other party actually took action himself.
“By the way, is it possible that the money raised previously is still in the Z Fund’s account and has not been returned?”
Zhang Pin heard Lu Zhilian saying that Benjamin was coming to Hong Kong Island , he immediately thought of one thing.
Benjamin was Hu Zhiyong’s boss behind the scenes at the beginning, and he was also Shen Huashan’s partner.
Currently, neither the Independent Commission Against Corruption nor the police have taken action against Shen Huashan. In theory, it is impossible for Benjamin Benjamin to come to Hong Kong Island for Shen Huashan.
On the contrary, after Hu Zhiyong was arrested, Z Fund’s account still had hundreds of billions of funds. It stands to reason that Hu Zhiyong has been arrested, and the high returns originally promised by Z Fund have also been lost. If it is false, then the funds should be returned.
But a theory is just a theory after all.
“It’s not that easy to get a refund, not to mention that Z Fund had launched several private placements before this fundraising. The funds raised in those private placements had already been lost because Hu Zhiyong bought Xu Huaijing. Appropriated and diverted”
When Lu Zhilian heard Zhang Pin's question, he couldn't help but feel a bit gloating about his misfortune.
Z Fund has been developing in Hong Kong Island for several years. The other party was able to win the government's care fund not just because it bought Xu Huaijing.
It turned out that Hu Zhiyong was supported by his uncle from the landlord association.
At least before this thunderstorm, Z Fund was an investment company on Hong Kong Island with returns much higher than those of its peers.
Now everyone knows that the reason why Z Fund can provide customers with high returns is that it uses the principal of subsequent customers as income and returns it to the previous customers.
But before, everyone thought that the other party could achieve this goal with the help of successful investment.
It is precisely because of this that although the money raised this time has been retained, the money raised in previous rounds cannot be recovered.
Logically speaking, if the previous investors lost their money, they would naturally have to admit that they were unlucky.
But reality is not that simple.
First of all, among the people who have invested before, many of them have unusual identities.
Even if Hu Zhiyong is in trouble now, the Hong Kong authorities who are in charge of returning the funds cannot directly ignore the other party's opinions.
Even because Hu Zhiyong was the first to corrupt Xu Huaijing, many of the people who initially invested in Z Fund were employees of the Financial Secretary of Hong Kong Island.
Most of the people responsible for returning Z Fund funds this time are also people from the Financial Secretary of Hong Kong Island. As their own people, it seems reasonable that they want to protect their own rights and interests.
In addition to the people from the Financial Secretary of Hong Kong Island, you must know that Hu Zhiyong is one of the preliminary members of the Landowners Association.
As members of the same organization, Hu Zhiyong’s Z Fund naturally requires investment from people who are also members of the landlord association.
As the uncrowned kings of Hong Kong's financial community, these people naturally have considerable energy. It is obviously unrealistic for them to give up their principal now.
In addition to these people, although some other investors did not show up, they also made their voices heard through various strange relationships, wanting to get back the principal they invested before, and the greedy ones even wanted to take away the money they had previously invested. Promised interest.
These people have different identities, but the only thing they have in common is that they have great energy.
With the interference of these people, the matter of returning the funds, which was originally clear, was delayed.
With the current amount of funds in the Z Fund account, it is obviously impossible to pay compensation to everyone.
In addition to these customers who need compensation, there are hundreds of billions of Hong Kong dollars in the Z Fund account.
Although some people have nothing to do with such a large sum of money, they are equally enthusiastic about it.
Part of it is due to ability or strength, but it is also just a hot eye.
But there are other people who believe that their strength and qualifications are enough to take a bite from such a big piece of fat.
So now many people are beginning to show their magical powers and want to transfer the money in the Z Fund account.
Because of these circumstances, the money in the Z Fund account has not been removed by anyone for the time being.
"Sir Zhang, do you also think that Benjamin is here for the money in this account?"
When Lu Zhilian heard Zhang Pin ask about the funds in the Z Fund account, he immediately guessed that Zhang Pin The product must have the same idea as myself.
In fact, he also guessed that the reason why Benjamin came to Hong Kong Island at this critical moment was 100% because of that large sum of money.
"This money is not black money. Our police force has no reason to intervene."
Although Zhang Pin guessed that Benjamin's purpose was the funds in the Z Fund account, he had no intention of intervening. .
Although he now also serves as the head of the newly established Joint Financial Intelligence Group.
But the work of this group is to investigate and deal with the money laundering industry.
The source of the money in the Z Fund account is very clear, and the capital is about to be refunded, whether it is to the people or groups who previously invested in the Z Fund, or to those who raised funds this time The goals have nothing to do with money laundering.
Sir Zhang always speaks the truth when doing things.
And this matter is not only of no benefit to him, but because there is a hundred billion lying on the account, the current work of finishing the Z Fund has become a huge trouble.
If this matter is not handled well, if it offends someone who wants to use the account funds, it will simply be a loss that outweighs the gain.
"I have investigated this guy Benjamin. He is not a rule-abiding person in Europe and the United States. If he is caught this time, our Hong Kong Island Police Force can also become famous in the world. ”
Lu Zhilian suddenly became anxious when he heard that Zhang Pin seemed to have no intention of participating.
Judging from the fact that they were almost tricked by the killer that night, but it was Sir Zhang who took action in the end, Lu Zhilian would actually be a little worried about this matter without Sir Zhang's participation.
"Do I seem to care about that kind of person who has a false reputation?"
In response to Lu Zhilian's persuasion, Sir Zhang immediately looked at him with a serious face.
With Sir Zhang’s reputation, he really doesn’t care whether he can deal with a Benjamin or not.
“Well, actually if our ICAC can handle a successful case, the amount of bonus will be quite large”
"I became a police officer not for the salary and bonus, but because of interest."
Zhang Pin didn't wait for Lu Zhilian to finish, and directly interrupted him with a wave of his hand. He obviously had no interest in going. Find out how much bonus the Independent Commission Against Corruption will receive after handling a case, because with Sir Zhang's net worth, he naturally cannot afford such a small bonus.
Lu Zhilian:
He just remembered now that in addition to being the evil nemesis, Sir Zhang is actually also very famous in the wealth list.
The reason why he is famous is not how rich he is, but his ability to eat soft food and save energy.
Whether it is the daughter of Tai Fu Bank, the eldest lady of the Tong Group, or the most beautiful widow in Hong Kong, Judy Tong. Each of these people has a lot of money, but in the end, they all try to collect money from Sir Zhang.
I heard that Sir Zhang drives a different sports car every morning when he goes to work now.
Compared with the net worth that the other party has accumulated by living a soft life, the relatively large bonus from the Independent Commission Against Corruption is indeed nothing.
“As a member of Hong Kong Island, it is our duty to protect the citizens’ funds and public security.”
Fame and money cannot move Sir Zhang, Lu Zhilian can only think of solutions from the ideal aspect .
"This is good, don't worry, if that guy named Ban dares to commit crimes on Hong Kong Island, I will definitely not let him go."
This time, Sir Zhang didn't wait for Lu Zhilian to finish his words, and directly He waved his hand to stop him.
What he said sounded nice, but if Benjamin committed a crime, whether he should be spared or not would be another matter.
If the other party did not commit the crime in the Tsim Sha Tsui area, he would naturally not be able to take over.
“Well, Benjamin is not actually named Ban.”
Zhou Xingxing, who had been listening to Zhang Pin and Lu Zhilian talking with open ears, finally took the opportunity to interject a word.
However, no one paid attention to Zhou Xingxing, whether it was Zhang Pin or Lu Zhilian, or Liu Baoqiang, Chen Jin and others who were lowering their heads to deal with the food.
“It’s just a refund of funds. Why is it so troublesome? Could it be that many people in this account have the authority to transfer the money out?”
Chen Jin eats quickly and has already finished his own. Then he heard Lu Zhilian's words clearly implying that the money in the Z Fund account was being targeted by many people, so he asked a question out of curiosity.
It stands to reason that if many people do not have the transfer authority of the Z Fund account, then even if other people have ideas about the money in the account, it will be impossible to achieve the goal.
"This money is currently supervised by HSBC because Hu Zhiyong, as the chairman of the foundation, did not authorize who should be responsible for the money when he was arrested. In addition, the Z Fund is now in name only. At present, theoretically As long as HSBC's approval is obtained, the money can be transferred out of the account."
When Lu Zhilian heard Chen Jin's inquiry, he did not hide it.
"Is there a possibility that HSBC could commit theft?"
This question was asked by Zhou Xingxing. After all, he has to judge others by himself. If he has a large sum of money in his hands, , he was afraid that he would be unable not to misappropriate it.
“This is the biggest problem. Of course it is impossible for HSBC to embezzle this money, but...” (End of Chapter)
