Chapter 579 Charity Business (Super large chapter, please vote for me)
The silent night was torn apart by a faint glow, and a slight fish belly white appeared at the end of the sky.
In the conference room of the Zarot District, He Ao, who was wearing a coat, Hei Xi, who was wrapped in bandages, and De Sank, who was frowning, were surrounding the conference table, looking at the materials placed on the smart conference table.
The underground doctor Hai Xi had found had already left.
After everyone returned to the Zarot area in the early morning, the underground doctor first performed a physical examination on all three people, and then treated each of them.
Among the three people, Haixi's injuries were the most serious. Although she laughed and chatted normally with He Ao last night, she had several injuries that were almost fatal. She relied on her physical fitness to hold on.
The doctor performed a major operation on her and was busy until an hour or two ago. Originally, He Ao wanted to let her rest, but she still stubbornly sat at the conference table.
Desanke's injury was much better than Hexi's. He underwent some simple repairs and was still able to persevere. However, he was not an extraordinary person, so his body was actually weaker.
As for He Ao, the doctor did not prescribe any medicine. Because of He Ao's intentional control, the physical injuries were not severe, but more of a weakness of the soul and fatigue of the body.
Instead, Haixi took out some medicinal soup that had been mixed with extraordinary plants and gave it to He Ao to drink.
Haixi's talent sequence is 'pharmacologist'. Although she is not as good as the underground doctor in terms of surgery and trauma treatment, drug preparation, patient care and recovery are what she is best at.
He Ao could clearly feel that those medicinal soups contained soul-restoring ingredients, and he wondered if corpse flowers were added to them.
Originally, He Ao expected that his body would need about two days of rest to recover, but with the help of Haixi's medicinal soup, it was almost fully recovered by this time.
At this moment, the three of them were looking at the documents on the desk, and the atmosphere was somewhat silent.
These documents are mainly negative materials about Ned.
"These materials were 'sold' to me by an insider at the charity foundation,"
Hexi, who was sitting on the chair, said slowly, "She is one of Ned's mistresses. She originally tried to dethrone Ned's current wife and take the position herself, but Ned kept coaxing her, leaving her with no hope.
, so I thought of selling these materials, making a fortune and leaving.
"Of course, she is not a good person. She used her identity as Ned's mistress to become one of the managers of the Wilme Charitable Foundation. Then she used this power to misappropriate the money from the charitable foundation to pay illegal high interest rates.
She hired some gangs in the West District to collect loans for her, forcing many people to death.
"In addition, many things about Ned passed through her hands,"
When he said this, Haixi paused, "For example, they will distribute food to street children in the West District in the name of the Huiermei Charitable Foundation, and then some of the healthier and younger street children will be given to them."
take away',
"Of course, this matter may not have originated from them. The Wilmer Charitable Foundation may have been doing this kind of thing a long time ago."
Hearing this, He Ao raised his head and glanced at Hai Xi.
He vaguely remembered that Haixi once said at that charity dinner that when she was homeless, she had queued up to receive food from the Huiermei Charitable Foundation. At that time, some children did receive delicious food, but since then,
After that, those children never disappeared.
The whereabouts of these 'taken away' children are not recorded in the data, but according to He Ao's previous experience, most of these children will be sent to the 'orphanage' under the Huiermei Charitable Foundation.
Then let those middle-class families who paid high "adoption donations" adopt them.
There used to be an orphanage under the Nolanka Group in Kaya City that did this kind of business. During the reforms, He Ao reported it to the Kaya City Police Department and arrested a group of directors and managers. There are no more orphanages now.
There are only a small number of families who need adoption and can pay the high "adoption donation", and there are also a small number of children who can meet the conditions, so these children need to be carefully selected.
If the selected child is lucky, he may be able to change his future destiny.
But the Huiermei Charitable Foundation is bound to make a lot of money from it.
"That mistress was the host of the previous charity dinner?"
He Ao asked slowly, "Is she still alive now?"
"My people have not received any more news from her," Haixi shook his head. "It is very likely that she has been silenced. She is very greedy and charged me a lot of money."
In fact, it can be seen from the situation in which Haixi was rounded up and killed in the Huiermei Medical Building that the mistress had been exposed long ago, but the leader of that roundup did not take action, and was fishing for a big fish in the long run, preparing to take Haixi as well.
Pull them into the net and catch them all.
So they felt confident and bold to let Hexi communicate and trade with the mistress, because in their eyes, both Hexi and his mistress were dead.
Their plan was indeed perfect, provided that Ho Ao was not involved.
"Judging from these data,"
De Sank on the side crossed several pieces of information, his voice a little suppressed, "The 'income' of the Wilmer Charitable Foundation is very high."
He paused, "Doing charity is also a 'good business'."
In the internal financial report of the Huimei Charitable Foundation provided by the mistress, its largest source of income is "charitable donations", accounting for 50 to 60%.
In addition to charity dinners asking celebrities from all walks of life to 'fundraise' and 'pledge', they will also place advertisements on major video or information platforms, arouse people's sympathy by piecing together or even fictional facts, attract small donations, and then
Convert these donations into 'income' through 'accounting'.
There are a lot of operations here.
For example, they can increase the management fee to the maximum ratio required by Wetland's law, and fabricate various expenses in addition to the management fee, directly 'consuming' most of the proceeds from donations.
Another example is that they claim to distribute clothes to street children, and purchase low-quality cotton clothes in bulk worth only 15 federal dollars each to make them into 150 federal dollars.
In addition, the food distributed also has room for manipulation.
Haixi has said before that when she was a street child, when the Wilmer Charitable Foundation distributed food to them, it claimed that everyone had milk, meat and bread, but in fact, the food distributed to them was
Just a small piece of expired sour brown bread.
Of course, in addition to charitable donations, the "orphanage operation" that He Ao speculated before, and the use of charity funds to issue illegal high-interest loans as mentioned by Hei Xi are also the main sources of income for charitable foundations.
Not only Ned's mistress was doing this kind of lending, but also the officials of the Huyme Charitable Foundation.
Adding up these various incomes, the Huiermei Charitable Foundation's annual profits can sometimes reach tens of millions of federal dollars.
It is already stronger than many federally listed companies.
Compared with Desanke's surprise, Hexi acted very calmly, because she was once a homeless child with nothing, and she could feel the "hypocrisy" of the Huiermei Charitable Foundation first-hand.
She put her hands on the table, "Part of these 'profits' flowed into Ned's own campaign support association through laundering, part of them entered the Wilmer Consortium and became part of the consortium's profits, and the rest became
Ned’s personal vault.”
She clicked on a document and said slowly,
"Ned owns many private villas and luxury cars, all of which are paid for by the Wilmer Charitable Foundation and held on behalf of his relatives or related companies.
"In addition to these fixed assets, many of Ned's entertainment expenses also come from charitable funds.
“He likes beauties and often goes to Morningside City and Rock City in the name of business trips. These two places have the two best ‘entertainment’ venues in the federation, Alicel in Morningside City and Milani in Rock City.
"He is the highest-ranking member of these two places, and he often spends a lot of money in these two places, and all his expenses go to the Huilmei Charitable Foundation.
"Some 'unexpected' 'expenses' were also billed from the Huiermei Charitable Foundation. For example, three years ago, he was involved in many cases related to underage girls, and ultimately contributed through the Huiermei Foundation.
Charitable foundations paid for the settlement.
"After his ex-wife divorced him, the alimony for his ex-wife and children was also paid through a charitable foundation."
Speaking of this, Hexi paused and said slowly, "When he transferred money through the Huiermei Charitable Foundation in the early days, he was still secretive and tried his best to avoid being discovered, but in the past seven or eight years, he has barely covered up.
, directly withdraw money from the foundation account in various names.”
"When a bad thing is done for a long time without any punishment,"
He Ao shrugged, "The tense spirit of the person who did this will gradually relax, and he will gradually begin to feel that this is normal and should be taken for granted."
"This guy······"
When Hexi was summarizing the information, Desank was also looking at each piece of information carefully. When he just got the information from Hexi last night, he was chased by Vader and didn't have time to read it carefully.
these files.
At this moment, his face was flushed, his fists were clenched, and veins popped out on the back of his hands.
Because he had no scruples, and the mistress who provided the information also helped Ned handle many things, many of Ned's illegal and criminal behaviors were clearly recorded in these materials.
For example, Ned attached himself to his own consortium and forcibly purchased the houses of residents near his villa at a 'low price', and then demolished these houses to allow his private villa to obtain better lighting.
And those who lost their homes could not afford new houses with the money they received, and many became homeless and froze to death on the streets.
In the end, a man ran to the FBI door and broke in, almost causing a sensation. In the end, the mistress helped to 'fix' the incident and calmed the media, and the man who forced his way into the FBI disappeared forever.
World.
There are too many to mention.
Finally, DeSank stopped and let out a long sigh, "I only know now that the senator is so powerful."
"In some small cities, senators' families can use their own power to monopolize certain profitable industries for a long time and form interest groups,"
He Ao said calmly, "Although senators do not have direct power, they can influence the passage and implementation of bills. They can introduce bills that favor certain financial groups. Senior senators can also influence new senators.
"Large conglomerates often 'invest' in multiple senators or representatives to cultivate their own power in the federal parliament, influence federal decision-making, and even check and balance the federal government through the federal parliament. However,"
He raised his head and looked at De Sank, "It is still difficult for a single member of Parliament to get things done in the Federal Parliament without any support."
"But as long as there is a first, there will always be a second and a third."
De Sank returned Heao's firm gaze, "Even if there is only one person, it can always change something."
He Ao looked into his eyes, nodded slightly, and then asked slowly, "What are you going to do with this information?"
"I have some channels through which I can disseminate this information to my supporters and spread the information through them."
DeSank responded.
"I know some owners of small newspapers and media, and they may be willing to publish this information."
Haixi's tone was calm. She knew very well that the resources they could use were too few.
These materials involve too many dirty things about Ned, and will surely usher in the strongest counterattack by the Wilmer Consortium.
Although the two men were not eliminated through physical means, the Huiermei Medical Foundation could still offset the effect of these data by spending money.
There is a high probability that large media will not offend the Huilmei Medical Foundation to publish this information, so Haixi only said that it can be published in some small media.
De Sank's channels can only influence his supporters, but the purpose of spreading these negative materials is actually to influence Ned's supporters and centrists.
At that time, as long as the Huiermei Medical Foundation launches large-scale advertisements, guides the direction of public opinion, interferes with audio-visuals, labels these materials as slander, and guides neutral people to not believe these materials, it will be able to 'digest' this incident and turn the entire incident into a slanderous one.
The incident turned into a long-term war of words.
In the process, Ned has been successfully re-elected.
The scene fell into a silent silence.
"Can the FBI get involved?"
Haixi broke the silence.
Some of the materials in the documents have already been involved in illegal crimes. In a big city like Wetland, even the Wilhelm Medical Foundation cannot fully control the FBI, so the FBI can be considered a semi-neutral agency.
Of course, influence can be exerted.
"No," DeSank shook his head, "Ned is still a senator. Senators are not subject to arrest during their term of office. If there is no definite evidence, the FBI generally will not easily investigate senators, and Wittland's federal government
There is a high probability that the Bureau of Investigation will still be affected and will not investigate Ned.
"Unless we can find a way to contact the FBI headquarters in Irons, even if the FBI headquarters intervenes, they will take a long time to investigate and will not easily intervene openly."
In terms of the power of parliamentarians, De Sank is still more professional than Heich.
The situation fell into silence again.
They have the materials, but they don't have enough resources to spread them.
The methods they can think of are not worth mentioning to the Huiermei Medical Foundation.
At this time, Haixi looked at He Ao.
"Can you still contact Qunxing Pharmaceutical?"
Ho Ao looked at Desanq.
“You can contact me,”
Desank nodded, and then he said quickly, "But if I want their support, I need to agree to their conditions and seek benefits for them, which I can't do."
"You don't have to agree to their conditions,"
He Ao shook his head, "The fundamental purpose of helping you is because they feel the pressure from the Huilmei Medical Consortium. They don't want to see you become a senator, but they don't want the Huilmei Medical Consortium to challenge them.
status."
He Ao thought for a moment and continued to ask, "Does Star Pharmaceuticals have any senatorial candidates that it supports?"
"Yes, they support the third-ranked candidate. His approval rating is 8.3, which is slightly lower than mine."
De Sank nodded, looking at Ho Ao thoughtfully.
"Then they are not completely hopeless in this incident," He Ao said softly. "What they need now is just a pressure, a pressure from the Huilmei Medical Foundation, forcing them to participate in this matter.
pressure."
Although the Huiermei Medical Foundation has threatened the status of Qunxing Pharmaceutical, the threat is not strong enough, so Qunxing Pharmaceutical only made a symbolic move to support Desanke, disgusted the Huiermei Medical Consortium, and showed off its own
muscle.
In the final analysis, Stellar Pharmaceuticals has not yet regarded the Wilmed Medical Group as a complete challenger.
"Haixi, do you have any blank encryption storage chips there?"
He Ao turned to look at Hai Xi.
"have."
Haixi reached out, fumbled in the box under the table, took out a storage chip and handed it to He Ao.
He Ao connected the chip to his bracelet, copied the information about the mysterious man's laboratory that Jace had prepared and wanted to publish, and added some information about successfully taking genetic medicine and finally completing the improvement of strength.
description of the person.
Then he handed the chip to Desanke and said, "Find a way to give this to the contact person at Qunxing Pharmaceutical."
"This is?"
De Sank took the chip and looked at He Ao with some confusion.
"Something that can prompt Star Pharmaceuticals to launch an attack on the Wilmed Medical Foundation."
He Ao smiled.
Now he is basically certain that the mysterious man and the Huiermei Medical Foundation are inseparable. There is a high probability that the Huiermei Medical Foundation is the supporter behind the mysterious man.
The emergence of genetic medicine means that the Huiermei Medical Foundation has the ability to mass-produce powerful extraordinary beings.
This kind of medicine can even be directly sold on the market as a biological weapon. Once the mass production of the genetic medicine is completed, even if it is just announced that the research and development is successful, the stock price of Huiermei Medical Group will rise sharply, and it will quickly obtain some companies that covet the genetic medicine.
'New allies'.
Huiermei Medical Group can truly challenge the position of Qunxing Pharmaceutical.
At this time, Qunxing Pharmaceutical had no choice but to take it easy.
The Huiermei Medical Foundation has always separated the project of the mysterious man from itself, probably to avoid the attention of Qunxing Pharmaceutical. After all, they themselves like to put commercial spies into Qunxing Pharmaceutical's projects.
In fact, they are also successful. Although the mysterious man spends money uncontrollably, he does things cleanly and neatly. Qunxing Pharmaceutical is still so leisurely. It is very likely that he does not know the news about the genetic medicine project at all.
Huiermei Medical Foundation has not announced the news about genetic medicines. I am afraid that it is holding back to prepare for a big wave of drugs for Qunxing Pharmaceutical.
In this case, no leaks will be allowed.
This is why Jace's parents and Jace 'must' die.
However, although the mysterious man accepts the "support" of the Huiermei Medical Foundation, he obviously has a strong sense of autonomy, and his interests may not be the same as those of the Huiermei Medical Foundation.
"You tell them," He Ao continued, "this is the information submitted to you by an anonymous whistleblower, and then leak some negative information about Ned to them. Be careful not to leak it all first. Wait a moment. I have some
The matter is not clear yet, waiting for my news."
He looked at Desank's slightly surprised look and said calmly, "This is enough for Star Pharmaceuticals to use all its strength to attack Ned and find ways to get the source of these information from you. I would like to trouble you to keep it a secret for the time being."
DeSank glanced at the storage chip in his hand, held it tightly, and nodded heavily, "Okay!"
The morning sun rises from the eastern sky, shining through the bright windows on He Ao's calm profile.
He lowered his head and glanced at the palm of his hand. There was also a storage chip there, recording the flow of raw materials for genetic medicine. These flows could most likely point to the location of the second laboratory established by the mysterious man.
He already had a guess in his mind about the mysterious man's purpose and identity, but he was still a little short of confirming it.
It’s almost 6,000 words, I won’t plant flags anymore...emmm
