The overwhelming news spread all over the streets.
During this period, IU received a lot of calls, including calls from my parents, friends such as Yoo In Na, and calls from Choi Sung Geun and Kim Dong Eun.
Lee Sung-ho was urgently arrested by the Seoul Central District Prosecutors’ Narcotics and Crime Investigation Department. The reason for arrest was for allegedly organizing a gathering of people to smoke prohibited substances and organize a gathering to buy sex on November 12, 2016.
cj group president office
Lee Jae-hyun's high blood pressure instantly spiked after seeing the news.
As news of Li Chenghao's arrest spread, the stock prices of CJ Group and Sunward Capital were also severely affected.
Lee Jae-hyun called and asked for his release but was rejected. Later, he found out that the person responsible for the arrest was a selfless prosecutor, and he was still trying to figure out which line this prosecutor stood on.
Lee Jae-hyun had known for a long time that Lee Sun-ho smoked that stuff, but it was a big blow to Lee Jae-hyun that Lee Sung-ho also smoked that stuff.
The first thing he thought of was that Li Shanhao was fighting back. Although he was unwilling to accept this fact, Li Zaixian also called Li Shanhao to the office.
Li Shanhao looked stunned, pretending that he had just found out, and was still worried that the stock price of CJ Group would be implicated, and was also looking for ways to let Li Chenghao go through his own connections.
sk group
Chairman Cui directly warned Cui Minjing and Cui Chenggen not to get involved in this matter, and they should just do what they should do.
gs group
Xu Mingbing also received the same warning and was asked if he was present at the time.
Hanwha Group
Chairman Kim Seung-yuan did not ask if Kim Dong-eun was present. In his opinion, there was no need to ask. Although Kim Dong-eun was playful, Jin Seung-yuan knew that his son had not smoked that stuff, and he probably guessed that someone was there.
Regarding the layout, it is unclear whether it is aimed at the CJ Group or whether the two brothers are competing with each other for the position of president.
Seoul Central District Prosecutors’ Interrogation Room
Standing behind the peeping-proof glass window are several decision-makers from the Seoul Central District Prosecutors’ Office.
In the interrogation room
With an expressionless expression, Xu Shendong pushed the photo in front of Li Chenghao and said: "If I were you, I would tell you honestly. This is giving you a chance. Even if you don't say anything, the prosecutor will still have the physical evidence."
Li Chenghao sat calmly on the chair and said: "Are you sure you want to listen to me? Or are you sure you are brave enough to listen to me?"
"Li Chenghao, you are a suspect now, don't show off in front of me."
"cigarette"
The documents were slapped on the table hard, and Xu Shendong warned Li Chenghao: "This is the interrogation room of the Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office, not your office."
"I want to smoke"
As he watched Xu Shendong walk up to Li Chenghao and pose as if he wanted to teach Li Chenghao a lesson, there was a sudden knock on the door of the interrogation room.
A female staff member came in with coffee, put it on the table without saying a word.
Li Chenghao picked up the coffee and took a sip, then looked back at the anti-peeping glass: "I want to smoke."
Then the cigarettes were brought in, and as soon as I lit them and took a puff, the Legal Department of CJ Group and the Legal Department of Sunward Capital arrived at the scene at the same time.
Both sides said it was Li Chenghao's lawyer, and for a while the prosecutor didn't know who to let in.
From the beginning to the end, Li Chenghao did not say a word except that I wanted to smoke. All of Xu Shendong's questions were answered by lawyers, and he protested against the prosecutor's office's approval of Li Chenghao's arrest.
The photo taken by Xu Shendong has been criticized as not being used as evidence. It was obviously taken secretly. In addition, the white powder left on the coffee table did not prove that the prosecutor had any evidence to prove that it was a prohibited item.
Can't Li Chenghao and others play with dough in the club's box?
After walking out of the interrogation room, Li Chenghao met several decision-makers from the Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office and left this sentence in front of everyone: "Don't use your own thoughts to speculate on other people's behavior."
After Li Chenghao left, Xu Shendong was also called to the Deputy Chief Prosecutor's Office and asked why he made the decision to arrest and who approved the arrest warrant.
After Director Yin showed up in the office, the whole story finally came to an end.
Li Chenghao's detection of prohibited items was just a false start. They really couldn't produce any actual evidence, but after the news spread, it had an impact on Li Chenghao's personal image.
Next, what they have to do is to conduct a comprehensive investigation and evidence collection on Li Chenghao personally and the industry he operates.
Whether to bring down Li Chenghao or to use Li Chenghao as a breakthrough to bring down the CJ Group has become the most discussed issue within the prosecutor's office from this moment on. Danger often hides huge opportunities. CJ has survived it. Anyone who shows favor to CJ
Everyone will benefit.
Entrance to the Seoul Central District Prosecutor’s Office
Li Chenghao, who was surrounded by reporters, smiled calmly and faced the camera: "I don't understand the prosecutor's reason for doing this. Obviously, if there is evidence to prove that I committed a crime, it is impossible for me to regain my freedom within two hours."
"President Li Chenghao nim, if the rumors of smoking prohibited substances are false accusations, how do you explain gathering people to buy sex?"
He looked at the reporter who asked the question, an unknown news agency name, raised his hand and rubbed his brow: "If hanging out with friends is called gathering for sex, then I suggest that everyone stop making friends."
"President Li Chenghao nim, the behavior in the exposed photos is not as simple as a friendship, what is the explanation for this?"
"This reporter, you don't have any friends. If you had friends, you wouldn't be able to ask such a question."
Getting in the car, Li Chenghao followed the head of the legal department of CJ Group and set off towards the next destination, the CJ Group headquarters building.
at the same time
Sunward Capital Charitable Foundation Office.
Han Zhien took the financial ledger and was checking it one by one with IU.
It has only been more than four months since the establishment of Sunward Capital. Currently, the largest expenditure of funds used by the charitable foundation is the renovation of Kowloon Village. There is no problem with this.
Secondly, there are welfare home fees paid for the elderly and other living material donations.
Another expenditure was the Kenya medical aid support fund negotiated when IU hosted a banquet for Gutierrez at the Blue House.
On the whole, there is nothing wrong with the Sunward Capital Charitable Foundation, but Han Zhien is slightly uneasy. She can't say what made her uneasy. She always feels that Li Chenghao's sudden arrest by the prosecutor must be due to some evidence.
As long as the first thing Li Chenghao needs to do in all the industries he handles is to sort out the financial situation, once the prosecutors conduct a seizure and search, it will be too late to make amends.
Iu doesn't understand this aspect. Han Zhien's father has experienced it once before, so she is extra cautious.
Although Li Chenghao comforted iu that nothing was wrong, the reactions of people around him also made iu feel that the matter was not that simple.
s.m company
Bae Zhuhyun sent a message to Lee Sungho.
The employees in the company were also discussing the arrest of Li Chenghao early this morning, smoking prohibited substances and gathering people to buy sex, although the employees all said on the surface that they felt that Li Chenghao was not that kind of person.
But in my heart, I actually think that if it was Li Chenghao, if it was the second chaebol, such a thing would really be nothing.
