Chapter 48: Coercing the He Family
The college entrance examination is an exam that easily gives rise to faith.
Here is the translation:
Either you're a lucky dog or a hapless one, there's no middle road to take. Everyone hopes they can be the former, but someone always ends up being the latter.
This summer, He Tao was unfortunately selected.
Just as he was feeling triumphant and ready to hand in his paper, two men in suits led him away from the examination room.
Unlike previous negotiations, in the entire Jiangning City examination hall, only He Tao was taken away.
He Tao started out calm but soon became flustered.
However, a carefully planned scheme is like a tight gear that cannot tolerate even the slightest struggle. Unless there is a powerful force at play, it will crush everything in its path with precision and punctuality.
At 7 o'clock in the evening, He Fuhan only sent his secretary to ask about it at the bureau and didn't take it seriously. For him, cheating on the college entrance exam was a small matter that wasn't worth discussing, although he knew his nephew was wrong, but he didn't want to investigate further, just thinking it was something done by some unscrupulous person.
He Tao couldn't be sent back so easily, in fact, the secretary Lv he sent didn't find anyone. By the time they asked around and figured it out, and finally determined that it was the Chen family's eldest son who was in charge, the whole day had already passed.
After several months, the Chen family's only counterattack was so inexplicable. Secretary Lü came back and reported that He Fuhan couldn't understand it either, wanting to find someone who knew to ask, but couldn't find anyone. Lü Tao's father, his fourth brother, had been working hard in a province outside of Jiangning because of the good teaching environment, and had sent his son over with great difficulty, and all matters related to the college entrance examination were handled by his trusted aide.
Who would have thought that something went wrong now.
Several people were on the phone for half a day and couldn't find anyone useful, so He Fuhan slammed down his cup and said, "I'm going back to sleep."
He was angry and still didn't think it was a big deal, just felt uncomfortable in his heart.
His two secretaries didn't dare to rest and had to continue making phone inquiries, watching as 3 am passed, it was getting more and more inconvenient to find people, so they just went through the motions.
Hei Han had been gone for a long time, and Secretary Lü poured himself a strong cup of tea, sighing: "I won't be sleeping tonight. I'm guessing that Hei Sheng has also been taken away."
He Bing-sheng was He Tao's uncle, helping him handle all sorts of affairs in Jiangning, and was one of his father's confidants.
"I've seen him, he's a clever guy." Another Secretary Lin said with a sigh, "He Yibing is not an official, it's normal to be caught."
A seventh-rank official in front of the prime minister's gate is not a real official after all; lacking one layer of skin makes it empty by one degree.
He Bing couldn't be found, He Tao also couldn't be found, and all the leads had been cut off. The two secretaries were both somewhat disheartened and secretly shocked at the same time.
Lü's secretary was still able to keep his cool, but another secretary, Lin, exclaimed: "Isn't this a kidnapping?"
"Formal channels, both people and goods are seized, legitimate and reasonable, flexible and adaptable detention locations, what can be said."
"If there's still no news tomorrow morning, the boss will get anxious."
Lv's secretary cursed in his heart and said, "If you can't find He Tao, then find the person who caught him. They are all government people, just look at the files directly. You go now, maybe he is locked up somewhere in their house."
Lin Secretary is also called a secretary, but he is actually a subordinate of Lv Secretary's secretariat, known as the second secretary. Although his position is lower, he can't speak loudly, and only after leaving the door, he curses in an empty space: In the middle of the night, where can I find files for you?
Although he did so, he still dialed the phone numbers one by one, calling up all the men and women who had gone to bed, hadn't gone to bed, were going to bed, and had just finished sleeping with each other. But if you say what effect it has, except for saving some tadpoles and comforting the secretary, nothing else can be found.
On June 8, there were orderly interrogation measures, and the personnel who exceeded the normal law enforcement level basically got all the people and confessions they wanted. Chen Guoliang still hid behind the scenes, pointing at the procuratorate and pushing them up.
Although He Fuhan had mentally prepared himself, he was still shocked when he saw the materials handed over by his secretary.
He didn't worry about the charges being pinned on him, after all, it was just He Tao's line, no matter how thick the fishing rod was, he could only catch fish of a certain size, and an 18-year-old student couldn't have any significant connections.
What Chen Guoliang didn't expect was that he didn't shift the blame to He's family at all, but instead focused on framing He Tao, among which the most important one was that there were unexplained income sources from abroad, directly targeting overseas organizations.
Watching the cheating case being turned into a spy case, He Fuhan scolded his mother in the office again, and his mouth kept repeating two words "despicable".
He couldn't let his brother's son not go to college, so he went to prison first. But this matter has nothing to do with himself, and it's also something he can't control. After a two-day delay, the case was already set in stone, and everything that should be there was there, and He Tao's fate seemed to have been decided.
Lü Secretary knew the boss was fine, and instead felt at ease, advising: "Boss, Chen and the others must have another trick up their sleeve. Arresting a student and locking them up will only tarnish our reputation. Once things settle down, they'll naturally be released."
"That's a good thing? There's a stain on the record, what can I say to Old Two?" He Fuhan glared. He was a genuine early university student, had been sent down to the countryside, had worked as a farmer, had been criticized and had wronged others, his tortuous experiences had thoroughly transformed him into a poor lower-middle peasant, with a bad temper and coarse language, all of which were acquired later in life.
Lü Secretary was already used to it and said unaffectedly, "Boss, the current energy of the Chen family is nothing but a minor annoyance to you. It's better to notify Mr. Hei to clean up his act."
They all knew in their hearts that He Tao had indeed received money from an overseas account, which was probably his father's, but this truth could not be revealed, and it might just be the opponent's main attack direction.
He Furong hummed in agreement, actually acknowledging his judgment.
Two people were talking when Secretary Lin walked over and said: "There was a briefing this morning, I looked at it and thought it might be useful..."
"Say."
"Yes. Chen Congyu applied for a rollover loan again this month, which is his second application."
He Furong closed his eyes and thought for a moment before asking, "How much is it?"
"160 million."
"Allocate 50 million to them."
Lü Secretary coughed and said: "Boss, they don't dare to really sentence He Tao. If you give them 50 million, it will take another two months of dragging things out."
"What if they really sentenced him to 50 million? They would have to smash their pots and sell their iron to survive." He Fuhan leaned back in his chair, shook his head, and said: "If there's any new situation, inform me immediately."
Lin Shu happily walked away. Lü Shu's expression didn't change, but in his heart he was actually unhappy. His future prospects were all tied to He Fuhan, yet he had no relationship with He Tao whatsoever, nor did he have any connection with He Tao's old man. On the other hand, pushing aside the Chen family would free up quite a few positions in Jiangning, which would be a win-win situation.
The joy of playing politics lies in the manipulation behind the scenes, where everyone is like a poker player with a straight face, not daring to show their cards, and even unwilling to let others see one card, but their hearts are filled with arrogant smiles.
The joy of students lies in the fact that all achievements can be quantified - scores are truly the best thing in human education. With scores, you know your exact position, you know the direction of your efforts and future development. On the contrary, quality education is like the emperor's new clothes, everyone is cheering, but no one knows where the good is.
Fortunately, the college entrance examination still has scores as evaluation criteria - it may strangle those weak seedlings that cannot even be stained with rainwater, but it will not repeat the nine-grade Zhongzheng system, so that critics and officials will not become Zhongzheng officials to harm children all over the world.
Under this good system, all students can have a clear and clear plan - to achieve results and complete their studies. In addition, they don't need to consider many issues like politicians.
As for Chen Yi, after the college entrance examination was over, it seemed that eating well and sleeping well had become the most important things to consider. As for the various cases of corruption, they didn't even need to be asked about, once these things started, his participation was no longer needed.
At this time, other children may still be worried about their estimated scores, but Chen Yi had already spread out the newspaper and opened the computer, thinking only about choosing a major.
Chen Zongyu gave sufficient attention to this, and he rarely accompanied his wife to help "consult", but the words implied the arrival of the financial era and the importance of financial professionals.
Having come this far, they have already completed the steps of capital accumulation. To go further and do something big, it is inevitable to deal with finance.
This was originally invented by world capitalists as something against the whole world.
As soon as Chen Yi's mind turned, he suddenly asked: "Speaking of finance, I've always wanted to ask, it is said that the supercomputers in the United States are mainly used by the Department of Defense, NASA, and Wall Street. What does Wall Street need a supercomputer for?"
