Chapter 431 Liu Xinjian surrenders
Qian Huimin is different from the previous two. Strictly speaking, Qian Huimin and the Zhao family have no affiliation, the two parties are just cooperating.
To put it bluntly, Zhao Lichun originally promoted Qian Huimin in order to get the approval of the Hushang Food City and at the same time to protect Zhao Ruilong's company.
The reason why Qian Huimin was able to rise rapidly in the future was that Zhao Lichun wanted him to restrain Li Dakang and play a political balance.
Therefore, the relationship between the Qian and Zhao families is very ordinary, and there is no complete certainty. Zhao Xiaohui really cannot discuss with Qian Huimin in advance to avoid uncontrollable situations.
Finally, after careful consideration, Zhao Xiaohui decided to contact the other party after things were settled.
After Qian Huimin is arrested, his spirit will be broken and he will start to think about the future of his family. At that time, it will be much easier to make a deal with him.
While the Zhao siblings were busy cleaning up the mess, Zhong Xiaoai continued to investigate the Shanshui Group. She didn't know that Qi Tongwei and others had already decided the direction and intensity of the case.
Two weeks after the Zhao siblings and Dudu had discussed the matter, Liu Xinjian took the initiative to walk into the Anti-Corruption Bureau and surrender himself.
"Director Zhong, good news, great news!" Lin Huahua ran to the door of Zhong Xiaoai's office breathlessly and said excitedly.
"What good news?" Zhong Xiaoai asked puzzledly.
"Liu Xinjian, the chairman of Handong Oil and Gas Group, Liu Xinjian, has come to surrender." Lin Huahua explained.
"Liu Xinjian? Turn himself in. Where is he?" Zhong Xiaoai stood up excitedly and said.
Liu Xinjian is no ordinary person. He is Zhao Lichun's most trusted secretary. At the age of 36, he was promoted by Zhao Lichun to deputy director of the General Office of the Provincial Party Committee and director of the Secretariat.
He was subsequently promoted by Zhao Lichun to be the chairman and president of Handong Oil and Gas Group, a bureau-level cadre.
His position in the whole case is crucial. If he can be made to tell the truth, the case can basically be solved.
Thinking of this, Zhong Xiaoai hurried to the reception room.
As soon as he entered the reception room, Liu Xinjian sat there upright, with no expression on his face.
After the routine questioning, Liu Xinjian began to talk about his problems in an orderly manner according to the remarks he had prepared earlier.
Liu Xinjian mainly explained three issues.
One reason was that the project was progressing slowly, so gifts were given to Xiao Gangyu and others.
Second, they did not strictly implement government procurement and bidding procedures, and gave the purchasing rights of Handong oil and gas equipment to Longyin Company based on favoritism.
The third is to cooperate with Shanshui Group and use the funds on the books of Handong Oil and Gas Group to make illegal loans.
Zhong Xiaoai stared at Liu Xinjian and asked, "Is Longyin Company Zhao Ruilong's company?"
"No, he is just one of the shareholders. The legal person is called Zhang Li. I have a good relationship with him. I felt that purchasing for anyone was not purchasing, so I ignored the purchasing and bidding regulations and illegally handed the project to Longyin Company." Liu Xinjian explained.
"Isn't it because of Zhao Ruilong's face?" Zhong Xiaoai asked.
“Yes, but if you don’t, that’s a lie.
I used to be Secretary Lichun's secretary, and had a good relationship with Zhao Ruilong. I met Zhang Li through him.
But he and I have never had any business dealings. He is just a playboy who does not understand company operations and has never participated in company management. He simply invests and gets dividends. "Liu Xinjian explained casually, and from his tone, he seemed to look down on Zhao Ruilong.
"Really?" Zhong Xiaoai was a little unconvinced.
"Since I have come here to surrender myself, I will not hide anything from you and will tell you everything I know," Liu Xinjian explained.
Although Liu Xinjian said so, Zhong Xiaoai didn't believe it at all.
However, Liu Xinjian's surrender, even if he did not tell the truth, did play a certain role in promoting the handling of the case.
"Can you tell me more about bridge financing?" Zhong Xiaoai asked.
Liu Xinjian explained slowly: "Director Zhong, this is indeed the case.
How should I put it? There have been more than one billion yuan lying on the books of our Handong Oil and Gas Group for many years. If such a large amount of money is left idle there, it would be a huge waste of resources!
But you also know our system, many leaders are afraid of taking responsibility.
At the beginning, I also applied to invest the tens of billions in the financial field or for investment, but no one approved it.
From then on, as long as it doesn’t involve the life and death of the company, I will hardly take the initiative to report and just do what I should do.
Later, I met Ms. Liu from Shanshui Group. Through her introduction, I formed an alliance with Jingzhou City Bank and loaned out the billions of yuan on the books of Handong Oil and Gas Group to earn high interest rates. "
"Tell me in detail, including how you operate and how the profits are divided?" Zhong Xiaoai continued to ask.
Liu Xinjian was well prepared before surrendering himself and had already prepared his statement.
"Director Zhong, our specific method is that our Handong Oil and Gas Group opened an account at Jingzhou City Bank and transferred the money from the unit account into this newly opened account.
The bank interest on this money was calculated based on the unit's current deposit, which was extremely low. Then Jingzhou City Bank loaned this huge sum of money to Shanshui Group at an extremely low interest rate.
Shanshui Group then lent the money to people like Cai Chenggong who were in urgent need of cash flow, and charged high interest.
Shanshui Group will pay a 1% rebate to the bank for every bridge financing it uses from our Handong Oil and Gas Group. Because Shanshui Group bears the greatest responsibility, they take % of the remaining interest, and we take four cities.
Over the years, through this operating model, our Handong Oil and Gas Group has received a total of 4.96 million yuan, and Shanshui Group has received a total of 7.44 million yuan." Liu Xinjian explained.
"Did you personally gain any personal benefit from this?" Zhong Xiaoai stared at the other person with sharp eyes and continued to ask.
Liu Xinjian explained: "Yes, as the chairman and president of Handong Oil and Gas Group, my salary and various income are closely related to the company's profitability.
The bridge financing was no exception, and I received about 800 million from it.”
If he had not handed over all the money back to Handong Oil and Gas Group, he would have gotten 800 million instead of 8000 million. The reason why he took out 800 million was to prevent Zhong Xiaoai from conducting an in-depth investigation.
At the same time, it was also to attract all the attention of investigators such as Zhong Xiaoai to himself, so that the Zhao siblings could take this opportunity to escape the blame.
Hearing this, Zhong Xiaoai did not relax her vigilance at all. She immediately asked: "So, besides you, who else participated in the dividend distribution?"
Liu Xinjian pretended to be in a meeting. After about a minute, he spoke again and answered: "In addition to me, there are Zhao Ruilong, Qian Huimin, and Hou Liangping. They all hold a certain proportion of shares in Shanshui Group, so the three of them must have participated in the dividends."
In fact, Liu Xinjian knew very well that the information he had just provided was far from enough to meet the needs of Zhong Xiaoai and the investigation team behind her.
Because of this, he had already discussed the response strategy with Zhao Xiaohui long before, and according to the prior agreement, he dragged Qian Huimin and Hou Liangping into the water.
With Qian Huimin and Hou Liangping, Zhong Xiaoai was not only able to complete his task but also to receive awards for his achievements.
Zhong Xiaoai suddenly opened her eyes wide and said to Liu Xinjian, "What did you say? Qian Huimin and Hou Liangping have shares in Shanshui Group?"
Zhong Xiaoai and others couldn't help but be excited. If it was really as Liu Xinjian said, then Qian Huimin and Hou Liangping would be finished. They had set up a deputy secretary of the provincial party committee and a director of the provincial public security bureau, and they would definitely receive commendations from their superiors.
"I heard from Mr. Liu of Shanshui Group that Qian Huimin and Hou Liangping do hold shares in Shanshui Group, but I am not sure about the specific proportion of their shares," Liu Xinjian explained.
After confirming that Qian Hou and the other person did indeed hold shares in Shanshui Group, Zhong Xiaoai was extremely excited and wanted to bring them back for questioning immediately.
However, the status of these two people is too high, so Qi Tongwei's opinion needs to be heard before questioning.
