General Ji and Lai Changxing wanted to find him to help them launder money, which Zhou Hao could understand.
The so-called black money is shady money, and its source must be illegal, such as drug trafficking, arms trafficking, smuggling, fraud, robbery, corruption, including tax evasion and tax evasion. Money laundering is to convert these through a series of transactions and transformations.
The key to legalizing illegal income is to conceal its true source and put it in a legal guise.
For criminal groups, clearing out black money is a crucial step, allowing them to openly and legally enjoy these illegal gains and expand their criminal power through reinvestment.
In fact, the amount of underground funds constantly circulating in countries around the world is greater than the liquidity in the financial market, that is, hot money. Due to the importance of money laundering to criminal groups, money laundering groups are becoming more and more refined and sophisticated.
With the development of professionalism, he has become a "banker" in the underground world, providing money laundering services to various criminal groups.
Whether he was a financial officer at Huangshi Group in his previous life, or he became a mysterious force that cannot be underestimated in the financial market in this life, Zhou Hao clearly knows that as long as he is familiar enough with the law and has enough professionalism in financial operations
With skills, it is actually very easy to launder money, especially through transnational financial institutions. Through the increasingly close economic and trade relations between the world, the black money can be easily transformed by going through various financial institutions.
For fair and legitimate income.
The larger and more famous a financial institution is, the easier it is to complete the money laundering process.
However, only criminal groups with very large power and financial resources, such as international mafia, drug lords and terrorist organizations, will launder money through professional financial institutions, or simply establish their own financial institutions specialized in money laundering.
Just like the big drug lords in South America, they set up their own banks, which not only launder money for their own drug gangs, but also provide services to other criminal groups.
As for those "loose" criminals who have not formed a group, they generally use casinos to launder the simplest money for themselves. Therefore, casinos like Macau and Asvegas are actually places for money laundering. This is also
Why do people in China like to go to Macau and Las Vegas so much?
Although "Galaxy Investment Company" under Zhou Hao is unknown in the financial world, in fact, "Galaxy Investment Company" has become the most powerful private investment institution in Asia. After continuous expansion, "Galaxy" has officially
The number of employees has exceeded 200, and none of them are mediocre, and all of them can be called financial leaders.
These people were recruited from all over the world, including the United States, Britain, Switzerland, France, India, Israel and even Japan. Each of them has unique talents in finance. Among them, Song Jiahao and Willie Wass are the two most capable.
Under the leadership of a strong trader, he became the victor
Holding the gear of "Galaxy" operation. They didn't know the strength of "Galaxy" at first. They only came because of Zhou Hao's generous salary. But after joining "Galaxy", they saw the slightest bit of it.
Not inferior to the financial strength of Quantum Fund and Tiger Fund.
The talents in "Galaxy" come from all over the world, but pure Chinese people only account for a minority. These Chinese financial professionals were recruited by Zhou Hao from Shanghai and Shenzhen, the two domestic financial centers, or from Hong Kong
There are high-end talents there. Although subjectively, Zhou Hao doesn’t like Americans and Japanese.
himself, but he also had to admit that the biggest characteristic of these talents with typical Western concepts is that as long as they are paid a high enough salary, they can loyally serve their employers. What kind of national defense is there for them?
□People with strong concepts are not as good as their own work.
Just like Zhou Hao's previous financial activities targeting the Japanese stock market, the Japanese in the company did not feel uncomfortable at all, and they did not show any mercy during operations. Instead, they operated extremely actively in order to increase their bonuses.
Moreover, since these people enter "Xinghe", they will immediately be monitored by the intelligence agency of "First Army". In view of the role of "Xinghe" in the Indonesian crisis, both Director No. 1 and Premier Zhu have seen the importance of "Xinghe"
Due to their sex and the relationship with Zhao Rixin, the country attaches great importance to the comprehensive protection of "Xinghe" and has told the "First Army" to closely protect "Xinghe".
Perhaps it is because the top leaders attach great importance to "Galaxy" and in order to facilitate the operation of "Galaxy", domestic financial regulatory authorities, including Hong Kong, have relatively loose supervision of "Galaxy", so General Ji wanted to ask Zhou Hao to help them launder money.
However, Zhou Hao can make a lot of money just from legal investments in the financial market, so why does he need to launder money for others to make "extra money", let alone the two bad guys, General Ji and Lai Changxing? Moreover,
Zhou Hao was also surprised that although his "Xinghe" was powerful, when it came to money laundering, it was far inferior to the Li family in terms of experience and expertise. Why didn't General Ji and Lai Changxing go to them?
After thinking for a long time, Zhou Hao smiled at General Ji and said, "It is really an honor for me to be able to cooperate with a big shot like General Ji. I just wonder what projects General Ji wants to cooperate with me?"
Naturally, General Ji didn't know that Zhou Hao had already made up his mind that he would never launder black money for him. When he heard Zhou Hao say this, he immediately smiled and said: "I know that your 'Galaxy Investment Company' now specializes in finance."
Investment, but I think you also know that finance is subject to change, and no one can guarantee whether the market will rise or fall tomorrow.
So the risk is still very high. Although your two domestic industrial groups, Tianhe Beverage Group, have made a lot of money, they still need to repay loans to major banks. As for Polaris Media Group, it is even more of a money-burning machine.
Yes, both Asia Television and Galaxy TV have spent a lot of money and have not yet started to make a profit."
He does know Zhou Hao's situation very well, and Zhou Hao cannot deny what he said. However, the value of Tianhe Beverage Group and Polaris Media Group is probably not something that people like General Ji who do intelligence work can know.
Just listen to General Ji continue to say: "So let me tell you, your two industrial groups not only cannot bring you profits, but also become your burden in the short term. By the way, there is also your mother's Tong family.
Although the catering company is developing very well, it would only be good if their funds can support their own development and operation, let alone provide you with any help."
Zhou Hao pretended to agree with General Ji's opinion and kept nodding, but he was sneering in his heart. Most of the companies that have achieved great success are rarely favored by people in the early stages of development before making profits, just like Zhou Hao.
Several companies, although their economic returns are not outstanding today, will definitely develop into leaders in their fields within ten years.
"Now I have a trading business with Lao Lai, and I would like to cooperate with you, Xiao Hao." General Ji smiled at Zhou Hao and said, "Because we have a small problem with our funds, we need you to help us operate it. But Xiao Hao
You can rest assured that except for capital, there will be no problem in all other aspects. The risk is definitely smaller than investing in the stock market, and the returns are definitely generous."
"Trading business?" Zhou Hao smiled slightly, this was obviously Lai Changxing's smuggling business.
Because China has very high tariffs on imported products, and many domestic resources are prohibited from being exported. In this way, if the door can be opened up, the smuggling business will indeed be very profitable. In some cases, the country will even acquiesce or secretly support it.
Smuggling activities. For example, in the border area between China and Russia, there is a large amount of smuggling activities, ranging from aircraft and artillery to rice, grain, salt and oil.
Smuggled goods. Because they want to obtain Russian resources and high-tech weapons, the central government basically adopts a tacit attitude towards smuggling activities in border areas. Sometimes it will send secret troops to protect the safety of those smugglers. In fact, the central government is very famous in Russia.
Several Chinese "traitors" were deliberately supported by the central government in order to obtain more materials from Russia.
However, this kind of smuggling activity against Russia was only active before and after the collapse of the Soviet Union and when Russia's political situation was still unstable. It is much less now.
But Lai Changxing's smuggling activities on the southeast coast are completely opposite to those in Russia at that time. Not only did it not benefit the country, it also caused huge losses to the country's economy. It would be okay if Lai Changxing was just a small fish and shrimp.
But now he has become a smuggling king in Asia, and the country has no choice but to take action against him.
Of course, Zhou Hao would not reject General Ji and Lai Changxing directly. After organizing his words in his mind, he said to the two of them: "General Ji, Boss Lai, it's a shame to say this. In fact, I am also very impressed with your trading business."
However, I have transferred almost all the funds from Galaxy out for my next investment. Moreover, Galaxy had previously negotiated with the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission.
Several cooperation projects we have done are now in the handover stage, so the central government is now paying close attention to our "Galaxy". I have also heard a little bit about Boss Lai's trading business. If we cooperate with Boss Lai now, we will definitely
It will be noticed by the people at the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission. It doesn’t matter from my side, but if it affects your business, Boss Lai, then I will really be ashamed of my two eldest brothers."
