District 9

In downtown Songjiang, downstairs of a high-end apartment, the secretary parked his car and asked Coco softly: "Do I need to go up with you?"

"No, you wait here and drive the car farther away." Coco opened the door and walked down, saying softly: "I will come down and call you."

"Okay." The secretary nodded and drove away.

Coco turned around and looked around. After seeing nothing unusual, he walked into the community, deliberately turned around and entered a unit building.

…

Five or six minutes later, Wu Di opened the door of his residence and greeted with a solemn expression: "Come in and talk."

"This matter is very abnormal. It is definitely not a routine review." Coco walked into the room and said with a slight frown on her eyebrows: "The people in the investigation team have no intention of communicating at all, and their attitude is very serious."

Wu Di closed the door and replied softly: "I called all the contacts in the city, but now I haven't found out anything about the investigation team. Even the feedback I received from Fengbei was that there was no one at all. I’ve heard about some investigation team recently established by the Economic and Framework Administration.”

Keke slowly sat on the sofa, and after thinking for a long time, he asked: "Fengbei has made a big move, and it is aimed at Tiancheng. Can it be judged like this?"

"Okay." Wu Di also bent down and sat down: "But now I don't understand, which point are they targeting Tiancheng? Is it to beat him, or to kill him? If we want to defend, which point should we defend? "

"In my personal judgment, beating is meaningless." Coco shook his head: "We are not soldiers of the party and government. If we are disobedient, the higher-ups need to deal with it. Our position is very clear and we have always been opposed to them. You beat us Can I change my position? Or can I listen to you?"

Wu Di pondered for a while: "Then they are here to bring down Tiancheng Baofeng. The trigger should be that Xiao Yu made a big fuss in Fengbei some time ago, so the higher-ups are determined to deal with us, right?"

"I don't think it has much to do with Xiao Yu." Coco subconsciously spoke for Qin Yu: "Economic issues are not criminal cases. You can punish a certain person if you have physical evidence, witness, and confession. Economic cases involve Accounts, personnel, and the under-the-table operations of various companies are all very complicated. If you want to seize the handle of a group company of our size, it will take time. It is impossible for Xiao Yu to cause trouble just now in Fengbei If there is any movement, they will do this kind of thing. This is too sloppy, you know?"

Wu Di fell into silence.

"The first problem now is to find the point where the other party wants to break through, so that we can have confidence and defend. Otherwise, just asking in private like this will not have any effect." Coco said calmly.

Wu Di turned to look out the window and suddenly asked: "You still haven't contacted Lao Zhang?"

"Yes." Coco nodded.

"Could something have happened to him?" Wu Di stood up and asked again.

"You think the same as me." Coco replied with a serious face: "I think the problem lies with him."

After Wu Di walked around the room four or five times after hearing the sound, he continued: "The point they want to defeat will not be the tax issue. There must be tax avoidance in large groups, but even if this kind of thing is dug out, it will not be solved." It's nothing more than paying a fine and punishing the relevant responsible persons. It can only make us feel sick, but it will not cause any substantial harm to us."

Coco was also thinking: "I don't think it's a tax issue either."

"Is it possible that Lao Li is running for chief councilor?" Wu Di suddenly turned around and asked.

Coco was stunned.

"When Lao Li was elected as the chief councillor, Tiancheng also spread money out. In order to avoid suspicion, Lao Zhang also participated in the transfer of funds to people's representatives." Wu Di frowned and asked: "Will they take this as an excuse? Seriously, are you saying that we, Tiancheng, are manipulating the election of members?"

"That's not the problem." Coco also stood up and replied in detail: "At that time, Tiancheng paid for Lao Li's campaign. I had some instructions for the following. The money we paid was through two charities. The foundation took it out in the name of donation, and they distributed it to the people's representatives on the grounds of charitable assistance, and distributed the money bit by bit, so I don't think they will check this. Because except for us, this The money is a benefit fee for helping Lao Li participate in the election. On the books, we have no problems at all. Secondly, you must understand that what Fengbei wants is Tiancheng, not the people... There are so many people's representatives involved in this matter , then once they are exposed, they may not feel very good. What if the people get into trouble?"

"It makes sense." The conversation between Wu Di and Coco was very fast, because the latter's ability to react on the spot and his understanding of the company were better than his.

Coco rubbed her chin with her right hand, lowered her head and walked around the house a few times, and then suddenly said: "I thought about it carefully again, and the problem should lie in the things we have to do every quarter."

Wu Di was stunned: "You said they are going to move the higher-ups? Is that impossible?!"

"Three years ago, it was impossible. Tiancheng had not yet grown up, and Fengbei's Longxing firmly occupied the first market share position. But three years later, we have completely emerged, and in terms of political stance, we are always in line with the party. The government is singing the opposite tune, so they have a good reason to want to kill Tiancheng. And to kill Tiancheng, they must first kill the upper-level connections." Coco's eyes were shining brightly and said: "The umbrella is still there, Tiancheng is still there. Only when the umbrella is gone, we can It will completely kill you."

When Wu Di heard this, he said in disbelief: "You mean, Fengbei is here for me?"

"What Lao Zhang is responsible for is giving rebates to the upper echelons every quarter." Keke spoke faster and faster: "But the main thing Fengbei wants to do is not necessarily our military and political upper echelons, it may also be..."

"Do we have a secret relationship between the party and the government?" Wu Di asked immediately.

"Yes!" Coco nodded immediately and said: "Through the large-scale bribery case and digging out the connections behind Tiancheng, we can naturally find out what projects we are working on and have received strong support from the upper-level connections, and the court can also Some of our assets were determined to be illegal gains."

When Wu Di heard this, he broke into a cold sweat and almost blurted out: "If this is really the case, then what will they do to Manulife next?! If Lao Zhang has been arrested, wouldn't you... also... be... Clicked?"

…

Outside the area, a car was driving rapidly on a highway.

In the driver's seat, a man held a phone and yelled: "Damn it, why is there no signal here?!"

At the same time, in Jiangpan Community, Su Yong frowned and shouted at the people at the local police station: "What do you do for food, ah? I have greeted you so many days in advance, but you haven't stared at anyone. This is What kind of work attitude do you have? Are you worthy of wearing a police uniform?!"
