Chapter 23 I'm just a victim of deception
"Yes. What can I do for you?" The student who was being interviewed was wearing the uniform of Titan High School and had an exquisite face that could make thousands of girls jealous. He was very photogenic. But he was suddenly stopped by the reporter.
He seemed a little surprised.
"That's right. According to the materials we received, you once worked in Bond Mining. Is this true?" The student's 'beauty' also made the female reporter stunned for a while. She tried to keep her expression warm.
Be gentle.
The student named Shi Chen lowered his head and was silent for a long time. His expression seemed a little sad. It was easy for people to guess whether a sad and profound tragedy had happened to him. But in the end he nodded, "Yes.
."
"How old are you this year?" The female reporter seemed to be affected by his expression, her voice was soft and pitiful.
"16 years old." Shi Chen answered truthfully.
"According to the information, you worked in Bond Mining for eight years, so weren't you only 8 years old at the time?" The female reporter looked through the information and was suddenly shocked by this message.
"Yes."
"Then do you know that Bond Mining is employing child labor and is illegal?"
The high school student seemed to be suddenly stimulated. He covered his face and begged the female reporter in a panic: "No... don't take pictures of me. I don't know. I was still young at the time and my family was not in a good situation.
I couldn't pay my tuition and fees in full, and I was deceived by Bond staff, so I got fooled. I'm just a victim deceived by Bond Mining. Can you please stop arresting me?"
Shi Chen's appropriately frightened expression immediately touched the soft spot in the female reporter's heart.
"Of course we won't arrest you. You are right, you are just one of the victims." The female reporter comforted her with tenderness, and then said angrily: "Don't worry, we will take Bond into custody."
If the ugly face of the mining industry is exposed and they are brought to justice, you will definitely get some compensation."
After comforting the high school student, the female reporter faced the camera, took out a white document, and reported in an extremely serious and stern tone: "The person who conducted the random interview earlier was a person who was persecuted by Bond Mining.
Child labor, they use shameless means to trick students from poor families into working for them and sign unequal contracts that last for ten years. However, the remuneration given to them is less than one-tenth of that of regular employees. It is so heart-breaking.
His behavior is truly outrageous.”
"According to another document that was just obtained, the mine where the classmate worked previously was not registered with the tax bureau, which is also the rumored black mine. The person in charge is Qian, the chairman of Bond Mining.
Chonghuan's eldest son, Qian Heming, used his rights to unilaterally terminate the contract three days ago because of a conflict with that classmate, without paying even a penny of termination compensation."
"The above is reported by Chen Hong, a reporter from Taitan Xunyang Evening News."
Qian Chonghuan stared at the screen and read every word of this report, and his face became increasingly uglier. Especially when he mentioned the black mine that Qian Heming had privately opened, he bent the stainless steel plate with his palm.
Lean on the railing.
However, his almost murderous eyes never left the screen. He looked over the shoulder of the female reporter and stared at the high school student named Shi Chen!
"It's this damn guy again!" Qian Chonghuan never expected that before he could find trouble with this untouchable, the other party would deal a fatal blow to Bond Mining in a matter of seconds.
Perhaps, this man named Shi Chen is the trigger of today's crisis!
The reporters who had just rushed into the conference room also noticed Qian Chonghuan on the observation deck, and naturally they would not let go of the scene of Chairman Qian losing his composure. For a moment, the entire conference room was filled with light.
When the fluorescent lights came on, Qian Chonghuan's face instantly became even uglier, turning green, like a thousand-year-old turtle with moss on its head, being hung up with a fishhook while laughing and paying homage.
Just when Qian Chonghuan was embarrassed, footsteps sounded again in the aisle outside the door, but this time the footsteps were uniform, heavy and urgent, like drums on the battlefield. The sound was shocking and full of murderous intent.
The next moment, the owner of these footsteps appeared in front of everyone, squeezed in through the door of the living room, immediately separated on both sides, and quickly occupied most of the place in the living room.
Each of these people had straight suits and stern faces. Their long-term power and authority gave people an endless sense of oppression, and the noisy reporters suddenly fell silent.
At first, a middle-aged man walked to the upper part of the living room, walked up to Qian Chonghuan, showed his work permit, and said coldly: "Inspection by the IRS."
Immediately, a subordinate ordered to the surrounding Bond Mining staff: "Please show the accounting documents numbered d06953413 to d07865234."
Qian Chonghuan subconsciously took a step back. When he heard the number reported by the IRS inspector, his face that was originally livid with anger turned pale again.
He was all too familiar with the problematic file numbers.
The prosecutor looked at Qian Heming, whose expression changed drastically. He, who had always been stoic, showed a victorious smile, but this smile was too cold and seemed a bit stiff and mean.
Qian Chonghuan looked ahead in a daze, and could only see more than a dozen subordinates in the reception room using small notebooks to record a series of data reported by the IRS personnel.
Naturally, the reporters would not let go of such great news material, and the living room once again lit up with lights.
Originally, in principle, on-site filming was not allowed during the national tax review, but when I thought of the death order personally issued by Governor Xia Jingming, and the figures of several behemoths behind this order, I connived and acquiesced to the actions of these reporters.
Qian Chonghuan was already in a state of near mental breakdown. The fluorescent lights flashing everywhere almost blinded his eyes, so he gritted his teeth and cursed in a low voice: "They are all a bunch of bastards! A bunch of blood-sucking bastards."
!”
"What did you say?" The examiner frowned slightly, "Can I think that you are insulting me? If so, I can sue you for damaging the reputation of the IRS!"
Qian Chonghuan trembled, and finally came back from a state of near madness. He forced out a smile that was uglier than crying and said, "How could it be? I'm talking about someone else, someone else."
"Then please pay attention to your quality."
"Yes, yes." Qian Chonghuan cheered up and whispered, "Sorry, I'll make a call."
The prosecutor narrowed his eyes slightly, naturally knowing that the other party was asking for help from the master's family, but he received the instructions from Governor Xia, so he nodded slowly.
There are some things that cannot be decided by him as the prosecutor of a remote star region. They are destined to be private games between the behemoths in the capital star circle.
As for him, just doing his duty is enough.
So Qian Chonghuan walked to the observation deck with heavy steps under the gaze of the prosecutor, held the terminal tremblingly, and made a call to the capital star circle.
After waiting for three minutes, the warp signal was finally connected. Qian Chonghuan swallowed and said: "Uncle... help me..."
The prosecutor, who had this scene in his eyes, turned his gaze to the night sky outside the floor-to-ceiling window. The night sky was still filled with thick clouds, and not a single star could be seen.
He knew that after this phone call, this storm might have just begun.
Xu's Zhenjiang Noodle House.
Just when Bond Mining was caught in a huge conspiracy whirlpool, Shi Chen, who had just become a behind-the-scenes promoter and actor, was devouring noodles in a bowl of sea while leisurely watching the TV series "
"Battlefield Rose".
Although the title of the drama is hopelessly corny, its ratings are still No. 1 in the Federation because the heroine in the drama is Ye Mengqi, a popular singer, idol, and actor in the Federation.
"Is it interesting to watch a drama over and over again every day? Idols can't be eaten as food." Xu Qiusheng, who was sitting next to Shi Chen, was bored and repeated a joke he had repeated for eight years.
Shi Chen put down the empty bowl in his hand, burped with great satisfaction, and said, "Yes, that's why I had time to look at the idols while I was eating."
Xu Qiusheng rolled his eyes at him and said: "With your sincerity, you also said that you want to marry her as your wife in the future. If she hears this, she will definitely ridicule you severely."
"So this will definitely be heard by her. Don't you know how to use another way of saying it? You know, women can only lie." Shi Chen was like a veteran who had experienced flowers for a long time. Under the real Xu Qiusheng
The veteran of Huacong is working hard at the front door.
"Tch... Brother Chu, who has never even slept with a woman, you have the nerve to say such nonsense. I was in a romantic place back then..." Xu Qiusheng was about to brag, but was immediately interrupted by Shi Chen.
"Don't show off your romantic history in front of me... This topic has been raised." Shi Chen said expressionlessly.
Xu Qiusheng laughed twice, and without any further argument, he hit Shi Chen on the shoulder and said sadly: "If we get those three million, maybe you will have a chance to fly to the capital star circle and see your dream.
Lover."
"You think I don't want to, three million, I don't know if I can save that much in my life," Shi Chen sighed helplessly and said, "But there are some things that we, little pawns, can't interfere with.
Just wait and see, something big will definitely happen during this period."
As if to confirm what Shi Chen said, the TV screen suddenly switched at this moment, and the familiar voice of the news channel host sounded: "Now we are interrupting two urgent news. The famous Bond Mining suddenly broke out during the IRS raid.
A major tax evasion case was reported, and he is now suspected of a series of issues such as creating false accounts, employing child labor, opening illegal mines, etc., and has been ordered to suspend business for rectification, and may even have his business license revoked. According to another news, the federal machinery giant Gu
Ke Machinery Technology Co., Ltd. intends to acquire Bond Mining..."
Xu Qiusheng looked away from the TV screen in a daze, looked at Shi Chen in disbelief, and said, "Damn you, have you ever practiced fortune telling?"
Shi Chen smiled and recounted what happened between the school and Qian Heming, and then said: "I was only doing it as a temporary measure at the time, but I didn't expect that thing to attract such a terrifying guy."
"Fortunately." After hearing this, Xu Qiusheng patted his chest with lingering fear, biting the top of his chopsticks with a bit of pain and said: "It's just my three million... Without these three million, we won't be able to live forever."
I wonder if I can meet a beautiful woman like Ye Mengqi."
At this moment, the screen on the TV changed again, and a portrait that could overwhelm all sentient beings appeared. Even the most demanding golden section of the woman's facial features could not find any flaws, but her expression was a little cold and arrogant, which made everything that touched her eyes...
Everyone feels cold.
I heard the host say with some excitement: "The next news will be broadcast. Governor Xia Jingming's twenty years in office have brought a take-off to our Titan's economy. His achievements have been recognized by Queen Elizabeth and the Supreme People's Government.
With the unanimous recognition of the members of the House of Representatives, he is now promoted to the Chief of Staff of the Military Department of the Baiyang Star District 1 of the Capital Star Circle. The candidate to succeed the governor of Titan is none other than Suye Canna, the daughter of the Suye family in the Blackstone Star District! Handover ceremony
, will be officially held four months later when Governor Suye arrives on Titan..."
Dangdangdang...
The chopsticks in Xu Qiusheng's hand slipped out of nowhere. After three seconds of silence, he suddenly stood up and slapped the table. His old face, still glowing with oil, was directly pasted on the TV screen. "Damn it! I still have the chance to see it in person in my lifetime."
Seeing this national goddess of the Suye family, my life is so damn worth it!"
Chapter completed!
