In this society, although there is a Forbes list visibly outlining the wealth of various entrepreneurs,
those in the know understand that the true top tycoons often hide beneath the surface.
Take, for example, Li Ka-shing from Xiangjiang, who was the wealthiest man in Huaxia for over a decade.
The list only attributes him a fortune of over two hundred billion.
Anyone who has spent a considerable ti in Xiangjiang knows that this figure is a downright insult to Li Ka-shing.
The cash assets he handed down to one of his sons alone far exceed this number,
even by one or two tis.
Then there’s Yan Qihua, whose family business never went public.
Outsiders can hardly imagine how much wealth he possesses, but owning the world’s number one construction group and being known as one of the top three hidden riches in the country,
his strength far exceeds what ordinary people can imagine.
Huang Zhongshi, swallowing his bitterness in silence, could only direct his seething rage towards Qin Xian, the accountant who had defected. Had he not been so certain about having the key financial criminal data of Tengying Group,
he himself would not have jumped into action.
Qin Xian, in his mid-thirties, did not regret his act of betraying Tengying Group too much.
But he was also aware that once Tengying Group resolved the crisis and was free to act, he would definitely be the first to suffer.
Having been severely scolded by Huang Zhongshi, he had little temper left.
When he got ho, his little girlfriend was still playing hide and seek with him as before.
Looking at her outfit, she clearly had an additional LV bag.
"Honey, do you like this bag?"
His girlfriend boasted about her newly bought designer bag, while Qin Xian looked utterly exhausted.
Truthfully, his inco at Tengying Group had been quite decent.
It definitely amounted to three to five hundred thousand a year.
But even this amount couldn’t withstand his girlfriend’s relentless shopping.
When she heard about his chance to get two million in cash and a salary of a million,
she imdiately urged him to switch jobs, valuing money over ethics.
There was no morality to speak of.
Qin Xian, feeling urgent, said, "You stay ho for a while, I need to go abroad on a business trip."
"So suddenly?"
His girlfriend looked puzzled, and soon after, the people from the Comrcial Investigation Departnt arrived.
Qin Xian was filled with panic, being in finance himself, he knew too well the cris he had committed.
He just hadn’t expected them to co so quickly, not even leaving him a chance to flee abroad.
All of Qin Xian’s gains would likely be deed illegal, and as for the gifts he bought for his girlfriend,
it depended on whether they were pursued or not.
...
Tengying Group, headquarters building.

During this period, the entire Tengying Group was in a state of high tension.
Especially the Finance and Legal Departnts, which faced one lawsuit after another.
But now, at last, everything was over.
The wild character from the Legal Departnt, Zhang San, asked, "Boss, Qin Xian has been caught. Do you want his sentence to be five years or over ten years?"
"The law is fair and just, you shouldn’t be asking this question. Instead, you should ask if there’s an option for over twenty years concerning the massive financial damage he caused to those retail investors!" Chen Pingsheng spoke indifferently.
With a smirk, Zhang San said, "If the boss desires it, then naturally it can be arranged. However, most of the illicit gains Qin Xian made were spent on his little girlfriend. If we decide to pursue it, we could send her to prison along with him."
"Go ahead and handle it then!"
The reckoning of autumn had begun, and Yan Qihua, with his profound influence, wasn’t soone they could crush easily.
Xu Pidai was an even bigger ticking bomb, attacking him could easily backfire.
These two were montarily untouchable, but Qin Xian, along with Huayi Film and Television, whose stock value had plumted to less than forty billion, had to face the consequences.
Zhang San turned and went to work. In such a large corporation, the Legal Departnt was naturally imnsely powerful.
To send two minor figures to prison was a simple task.
Chen Pingsheng didn’t care at all about Qin Xian’s fate; Qin Xian had sealed his own fate the mont he dared to report his wrongdoing.
He thought he could escape to a foreign country and be safe? He was utterly mistaken.
The key point was, he didn’t even manage to escape.
As for Huayi, a centipede dies but never falls down.
Though its stock price had fallen below forty billion, it had also lost three major female superstars consecutively.
It still had so breath left in it.
The following mont would be critical for him to devour Huayi, solidifying Tengying Entertainnt as the top film company within the industry.
Chen Pingsheng had learned from Tong Zelan that in less than two months, Huayi would face two high-mortgage loans coming due.
And the assets he had mortgaged were the Huayi headquarters building and a few of his own luxury villas.
If they couldn’t pay back the money at the deadline, the banks would show no rcy.
They would directly proceed with the foreclosure process.
Originally, if Huayi had stayed out of his way, stable and undisturbed, with its hundred-billion market value,
those two loans of over twenty billion wouldn’t have been a problem to repay at all.
Now, there was undoubtedly big trouble.
Chen Pingsheng had Zhang Wanyi release a statent, preemptively announcing that Huayi had encountered a significant financial crisis.
After losing the five-billion drama supported by Fan Haon, Huayi’s quarterly financial report was bound to show a massive loss.
Additionally, he wanted to bounce back with that big movie, right?
Chen Pingsheng also had Bai Xin in Capital City arrange for soone to anonymously report the lead actor of that big movie for allegedly soliciting prostitutes.
The movie, with its schedule fixed and tens of millions already spent on promotion,
hit a major snag when the lead actor ran into trouble.
Reported accurately by the Chaoyang masses every ti.
The movie’s release was inevitably postponed.
Huang Zhongshi was so angry he cursed.
"Damn Chen Pingsheng, what’s he trying to do by kicking while I’m down?"
No wonder he was furious; Tengying Group announced that Huayi Film and Television was facing a significant financial crisis.
It was clearly ant to cut off his financing channels during this period.
Moreover, by reporting the lead actor of the big movie, causing it to be unable to release as scheduled, they were definitely playing a dangerous ga.
The loss of the five-billion investnt in the drama sponsored by Fan Haon had already cost him greatly in terms of capital’s trust.
Now, even the only big project in the near future was ruined by Tengying Group, preventing its release.
Viewing the mortgaged loans approaching their deadline in less than two months,
he had to think of a solution no matter what.
Clearly, Tengying Group intended to trap him at this critical point.
If word got out that Huayi couldn’t even repay loans of just over twenty billion, causing their headquarters building to be foreclosed,
the impact on Huayi’s stock price would be like a bolt from the blue.
Huang Zhongshi sneered; Chen Pingsheng did indeed have a cunning plan.
But he had forgotten one thing.
The entertainnt industry was never short of beauties, and at a certain party, a tycoon had taken a fancy to one of their leading starlets.
He hadn’t planned to offer this starlet initially, but now he was forced to.
During the night, Huang Zhongshi imdiately contacted that billionaire businessman,
trying to offer up their leading starlet to secure so lifesaving funds.
Regrettably, Huang Zhongshi’s plan was ultimately blocked by Tengying Group.
The next day, Tengying released an article.
Publicly opposing the transaction of money and beauty in the entertainnt industry.
It even hinted darkly that since Huayi was facing a major financial crisis, anyone daring to lend them money at this ti,
should be very careful.
It all but nad Huang Zhongshi directly, accusing him of trying to exchange his female talent for capital in a despicable way.
Since Chen Pingsheng had chosen to kick soone while they were down, he wouldn’t give them any chance to recover.
All along, they would surround and block his paths, relentlessly tightening the noose.
