SEC is the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, which the Chinese call the U.S. Securities Regulatory Commission. It has thousands of employees and is headquartered in Washington, D.C. The Investigation and Enforcement Department, as an important part of it, has great power.

The most famous law that the SEC is based on is called the "Truth in Securities Law" by the United States. It has two basic contents. One is that securities investors have the right to obtain all financial information and other important information of companies that publicly offer securities in the market. information, and the second is to prohibit institutions from committing fraud on investors. Anyway, it is more inclined to protect the rights and interests of small and medium-sized investors.

Therefore, the SEC has the right to investigate listed companies that they think have problems. As long as you are a listed company and the SEC thinks you have problems, it can directly require you to submit documents and certificates, and then based on these information and its own work, it can Decide whether to investigate further.

To sum it up: If I want to check you, you must let me check you. As long as you have a problem, I can check it out.

The problem is that the SEC has great power and heavy tasks. It has thousands of stocks to monitor and other miscellaneous things. Thousands of employees may seem like a lot, but in fact it is not enough. In addition, ATE itself is not a vegetarian. Can we just say that we are investigating?

If it weren't for Lei Hao's identity, Huang Jialiang would definitely curse "idiot" directly. Although his uncle Huang Shuhe has a lot of power in the SEC's investigation and enforcement department, he also has a lot of supervision.

Things about LEI have become somewhat popular recently. As a Chinese, Huang Shuhe has to pay a heavy price for speaking out.

"Mr. Lei, the United States is different from China. The regulatory power of the SEC is not weak." Huang Jialiang shook his head and said: "Among other things, most of the people participating in the securities market are institutions. They are not only the persons under investigation, but also the regulators in fact. .”

"It's all about human effort, and we won't let Mr. Shuhe be weak in the SEC when investigating ATE," Lei Hao said.

Huang Jialiang smiled and shook his head. He had been in contact with this group of people in the financial circle many times. What lies could he not hear?

First, fool A by saying that BCD can also do it, and then use the same words to fool BCD and others. When you finally start, you will find a damn fact, that is, you are the only one who does it, and everyone else is watching.

Since there are a lot of struggles within the SEC, you may not get accurate information if you contact other people, so you can only believe half of what the financial giants say.

In Huang Jialiang's eyes, Lei Hao is a financial giant, at least a big bookmaker in shorting ATE.

"Mr. Lei has a lot of chips to short ATE, right?" Huang Jialiang smiled and clicked, "It's a good idea to find an entry point in the SEC, but it won't work this time. Everything must have certain prerequisites."

What's the meaning? Lei Hao was stunned for a moment, and soon he understood some of Huang Jialiang's attitude from the smile in Huang Jialiang's eyes, and he couldn't help but smile bitterly.

The other party thinks that he is being taken advantage of, but the problem is that he is not.

Lei Hao must have asked Huang Jialiang's uncle Huang Shuhe to initiate the proposal for profit, but in fact, he also had the idea of ​​​​selling a favor to Huang Shuhe.

Yes, asking people to do things also has the idea of ​​​​making the other party owe a favor. If Huang Jialiang knows about this, the other party may have the urge to pry open Lei Hao's head to check the brain circuit.

But the fact is so wonderful, Lei Hao knows it very well.

Is there a problem with Ant Energy Group? Of course there is.

Is there an internal SEC investigation into Ant Energy Group? There definitely is.

Lei Hao himself has little power here in the United States. At least it is absolutely impossible to influence the SEC, but people like Bernard do.

Look at the series of well-known names behind Bernard and others: Keda, HSBC, Wells Fargo, AIG, Morgan.

Although it is only a subsidiary fund company, it would be strange for Bernard and others not to take action after absorbing enough chips.

Huang Shuhe is launching a proposal at this moment, and the possibility of it being rejected is not small. But in a few days, he will definitely find that people who support him appear one after another. In the end, the investigation of ATE The proposal will definitely be passed.

In this process, Huang Shuhe within the system will definitely gain a lot of benefits.

Since Ant Energy Group's problems exist objectively, once the proposal is passed, enough things will be discovered to benefit Huang Shuhe a lot, which is a great political achievement.

Lei Hao thought so, but he realized that he had taken it for granted. The relationship between him and Huang Jialiang did not even have a basis for mutual trust.

"Congressman Huang thinks, what are the preconditions?" Lei Hao asked.

"Mr. Lei, in terms of political donations, the Democratic Party has received relatively little soft money. Let's talk about the 'Blue Hudson River'." Huang Jialiang's eyes lit up and he said with a smile.

The so-called "Blue Hudson" is actually an issue raised by the Democratic Party to attack its opponents. Interest groups of the Republican Party have made a lot of "contributions" to polluting the Hudson River. When Huang Jialiang was canvassing for votes, He often used this matter to mock his opponents.

Political donations in the United States are a very strange thing. Money donated by individuals to run for elections is called hard money. There are many restrictions. Politicians bypass this regulation and let donors invest the money in projects of their party. , which is soft money with no limit.

It's all bullshit. What Huang Jialiang meant was to ask Lei Hao to make some political donations, and then he would help Lei Hao work on this matter.

When he heard this, Lei Hao was a little stunned, but he just pondered for a moment, then raised two fingers and said: "For $2 million, I hope to see the blue Hudson River."

Huang Jialiang suddenly smiled brighter. Two million was a lot for a city councilor like him, and it should be enough for his uncle Huang Shuhe to go through the motions and speak out for Lei Hao.

"What about people in the financial circle? You don't have anything to ask for, so joining politics is the best choice." The Huang family felt a little proud in their conscience, but on the surface they smiled quite gently.

Deliberately pretending to think about it, Huang Jialiang nodded and agreed, thinking that he had made a good deal.

After contacting him for a while, Huang Jialiang said goodbye and left, accepting Lei Hao's money. Naturally, he had to do something. That night, he told his uncle Huang Shuhe face to face about the matter.

"You mean, Lei Hao gave you a political donation of 2 million yuan in exchange for letting me help him launch a proposal to investigate ATE?" Huang Shuhe is only 9 years older than his nephew Huang Jialiang, but he has much richer experience. Hearing Finally, he sighed silently in his heart.

"Yes, uncle, I don't need you to do your best, just let me have an explanation for Mr. Lei, just like..." Huang Jialiang smiled and wanted to make arrangements.

"Are you sure this is a transaction?" Huang Shuhe looked a little embarrassed.

"Yes, we are only in preliminary contact, and this matter..." Huang Jialiang felt something was wrong.

"Besides, politicians' efforts come at a cost, do you think so?" Huang Shuhe shook his head and said, "That's right, but it's not appropriate to put it on Lei Hao! I remember I told you that we should try our best to cooperate with Lei Hao. Lei Hao draws closer! Have you forgotten?"

When he said the last sentence, Huang Shuhe's expression became a little stern.

"I haven't forgotten it, but this matter..." Huang Jialiang still wanted to explain that if he was "strategizing", Lei Hao could only donate 100,000 to 80,000 yuan. Where did he get 2 million? And will anything happen to ATE? No, as long as there is no problem with ATE, this matter can only be a transaction! What's wrong?

"Why didn't you tell me before you met Lei Hao?" Huang Shuhe wanted to slap his nephew, gritted his teeth and said, "It's not just Lei Hao who is shorting ATE!"
