Chapter 1026 Don't Think About Ansheng
The FBI fieldmen wearing bulletproof vests and live ammunition were sitting in the car across the street, while the Justice Department officials in casual clothes sat openly in the reception room of the [FL North American Venture Capital Company] with a look of arrogance.
After being investigated by a raid, the atmosphere in the company was a little different from what I had imagined before. Although the young and beautiful female interns were a little nervous, the company's senior project managers all looked relaxed. While talking and laughing with entrepreneurs who wanted to get investment in the company, they also rolled their eyes contemptuously at these judicial officials.
Seeing Fu Zhengyi turn his face, Xi Meijuan said angrily. "Boss, this is Yang Wenyuan's conspiracy! He just wants to force the company to give up the veto power of next week's board meeting..."
Fu Zhengyi sat down. "What does the lawyer say?"
"The lawyer believes that this is standard excessive law enforcement! The lawyer is drafting relevant documents to prepare for complaints and accusations. Although the company's surveillance hard drive has been sealed and seized, the Ministry of Justice does not dare to make a name for these video records. They are dead this time! I must make the bastard who leads the team to pay the price! I swear..."
Xi Meijuan made a lot of ruthlessness, but she also explained the current situation clearly.
The investigation of [FL North American Venture Capital Company] is not because the company is really suspected of violating the law. It is likely that Yang Wenyuan convinced a senior official from the Ministry of Justice to ask the judicial department to launch a rigorous investigation into the company in the name of "spot checks".
After reading the relevant documents handed over by Xi Meijuan, Fu Zhengyi raised his head and asked, "Will the company's daily operations be affected?"
"It must have an impact! The Ministry of Justice's raid was broadcast live by the TV station, and the online broadcaster even slandered the company with unconfirmed speculation. Fortunately, the company operates all venture capital projects, and there is no physical business. Moreover, the wanton slander from the outside world is not as real as real money. Some entrepreneurs even faxed the application because they saw the live broadcast. I guess these entrepreneurs may hope that the company can take advantage of the situation before being punished..."
Fu Zhengyi was puzzled. "Falling in troubled waters? What does it mean?"
"That is, project applicants want to obtain startup funds from the company as much as possible before the judicial department freezes the company's accounts. If our company is really closed due to the investigation by the Ministry of Justice, or has been revoked, then the venture capital funds obtained by these entrepreneurs will be equivalent to unexpected money..."
Fu Zhengyi smiled. "There are many people taking advantage of the situation and few people helping with it in time. It seems that it is the same whether it is the East or the West!"
"Boss, I'm sorry! I can't blame me for not being able to detect such a thing in advance..."
"It's not your fault for this. It's a conflict of ideas! It's a conflict of business direction decisions. It's also my underestimation of Yang Wenyuan's determination, and I also neglected the strength of the US judicial department to protect non-US local companies. I also didn't notice that Yang Wenyuan's lobbying ability of US government officials after becoming a rich man," Fu Zhengyi paused for a moment, thought for a while before asking. "Law-by, what strategies can the company adopt?"
"The conservative way is to accept and cooperate with the investigation, let the company resume normal operations as soon as possible, and give up confrontation. The radical way is to form a lawyer team, file a lawsuit on the grounds of "excessive law enforcement", accusing the Ministry of Justice of brutal law enforcement, and demanding relevant media to apologize publicly and compensate for reputation losses..."
"Accuse the U.S. Department of Justice? Will the consequences be serious? The judicial department is an official agency of the United States..."
Fearing that he was wrong, Xi Meijuan quickly explained. "Boss! This is the United States. Whether the complaint is made or not, as long as the company does not violate the law, there is no need to worry! And the worst result is to waste some lawyer fees. However, those lawyers who specialize in opposing official institutions, or lawyers who want to become famous, are very willing to reduce their lawyer fees to take on such cases. As long as you make a few calls, many lawyers will take the initiative to come..."
Fu Zhengyi was puzzled. "What does it mean?"
"That is to say, there are many lawyers who are willing to help the company sue the Ministry of Justice for free. If they win, lawyers and law firms will become famous. If they lose, they will be like a waste of time..."
It turns out that in order to become famous, some lawyers in the United States like to sue government departments very much. They fight to the end. If they win, they will succeed. If they lose, they can win the sympathy of the people and win the favor of large companies, and give them long-term contracts. It is really beneficial but not harmful. So no matter what kind of lawsuits involving government departments happen, these lawyers are like vultures smelling blood, staring at them.
After understanding the reason, Fu Zhengyi was a little happy. "Okay, then deal with it in the most radical way! If there are many lawsuits, then you will fight as many lawsuits as long as they can make them headaches, embarrass them, and let them know that we can't control them at will, just be OK!"
Xi Meijuan was taken away by FBI officials for investigation, so she spared no effort to instigate and hoped that the boss could help him and the employees of the company to vent this anger. But now he agreed to follow the most radical method so easily, Xi Meijuan felt a little guilty. "Boss, although the radical method can relieve the anger, there will still be some consequences. I think it's better to wait until the lawyer comes over to consult. Is it safer?"
Fu Zhengyi frowned. "Safety? Didn't you say that the worst result is that the company's business development slows down and some investment opportunities are lost?"
"Yes, if the FBI is finally sentenced to excessive law enforcement, it will be responsible. However, no matter whether the lawsuit is fought or not, these government agencies will not be allowed to suppress the company more excessively, nor will they need to be afraid that these official agencies will retaliate against the company's normal operations. However, the loss of investment opportunities means that the company's development is limited and profits are reduced..."
Seeing Xi Meijuanshi's explanation, Fu Zhengyi breathed a sigh of relief. "Okay, since there will be no retaliation and the company itself does not have any illegal or irregular behaviors, there is nothing to worry about. The taxes that should be paid are also paid in full. In a country like the United States, which is more inclusive, there is still no need to worry about anything. Yang Wenyuan and some officials of the Ministry of Justice probably think that the person in charge of the company is Chinese, so they dare to do this. If they back down this time, they will gain a lot in the future, so how should they deal with it this time! At worst, they will lose some investment opportunities, office expenses, and employee salaries. Do you still need to worry about making less money and be afraid of such revenge?"
After understanding what he meant, Xi Meijuan was relieved, but when she thought about going to court with the US Department of Justice, she still felt guilty unconsciously guilty, pursed her lips and had a bitter face, and thought for a long time before nodding.
Fu Zhengyi thought the FBI's search would be quite serious, but he rushed over and found that in the United States, similar official investigations were really common, so he couldn't help but sigh, thinking that he was not clear about the laws of the United States and did not know much about the principles of government agencies here, and was a false alarm.
It would be better to stay on the boat and accompany Li Xueyao to Europe to see those heart-shaped islands...
Not knowing what he was thinking, Xi Meijuan felt more and more guilty. After hesitating, she took out the fax of Yahu Company's meeting from the drawer and handed it over. "Boss, will the vote for the meeting next week be followed by the original implementation?"
"Original? What's the original?"
"It's about Yang Wenyuan's proposal to inject online broadcasters' assets into Yahu Company..."
Fu Zhengyi took the fax and looked at it. Although the words were gentle, the arrogance between the lines was not concealed. He shook his head and said, "In this way, give Yang Wenyuan a call and tell him that the company will fight with the Ministry of Justice. If he doesn't want all the topics of the meeting next week to be rejected, then he must appear in front of me tomorrow, otherwise all his proposals and the company will exercise the veto power. No matter how he is trying behind the scenes or how he is doing, the company currently holds guarantees that all his proposals will not be able to pass..."
Xi Meijuan was stunned. "Ah? All proposals were not approved?"
"Yes! Since he dared to make trouble through the official US agency and it made me unhappy, then he had to understand that the company could also bombard him from the position of CEO!"
"Boss! In addition to the proposals for asset injection of online broadcasters, next week's meeting also requires voting for normal operational reforms and normal proposals in advertising, customer management, etc...."
Fu Zhengyi waved his hand. "I don't care whether it's normal or abnormal. He won't show up in front of me tomorrow. Then the next company's proposal is to ask him to remove him from his position! ceo. If anyone is in that position, I believe that it will not be worse than Yang Wenyuan's job!"
Xi Meijuan was completely confused. "Boss? Are you really sure you want to do this?"
"Sure!"
"Okay, but in this way, Yahu Company will be in chaos. David does not have the ability to serve as a CEO, and he also expressed his opinion that he would stand on Yang Wenyuan's side..."
"Fund companies in New York and London, plus the shares of Yahu Company held by Baybian Securities, I believe that if the removal issue is put on the table, Yang Wenyuan will definitely make room. If he doesn't let me live a good life, then he won't want to live a peaceful life!"
Although the boss seemed to be angry, Xi Meijuan knew that he would rarely take back his life. She thought that she shouldn't deliberately provoke it because of the FBI's inquiry. If Yang Wenyuan refused to surrender, the boss must have no intention of making a big deal!
