We're building a super chaebol in Hong Kong
#279 - Getting ready to run
While Habakkuk Andrew was comforting Mike in his office, Su Cheng had already arrived downstairs with Zhang Qizheng and two bodyguards.
The lobby on the first floor had seating for resting and was very luxuriously decorated, perfect for Su Cheng to relax.
Nami Entertainment was, after all, a listed company, and one with a market value of over 100 million, so it naturally needed to present a good image.
Therefore, the interior of the company's headquarters building was very well decorated.
The entire building was only eight stories high, not very tall, but it had all the departments that an entertainment company should have.
Being so well-known in Hollywood naturally meant it had its strengths.
From this point of view, if this Mr. Habakkuk Andrew didn't engage in petty tricks, he would actually be a talented manager.
After all, as he said, he was the most responsible for the company growing from a small business to a large company with a market value of over 100 million.
However, having embezzled so much, his merits were destined to be outweighed by his demerits.
If he hadn't gone public, the money would naturally have been his, and he could have done whatever he wanted with it.
But since he chose to list the company and only held a small portion of the shares himself, it meant that he didn't have the right to swallow all of the company's profits.
Just as Habakkuk Andrew had finally managed to persuade Mike and send him out of the office, and was turning around to call his good friend at the stock exchange, two official cars successively parked in the parking spaces in front of the company.
These cars belonged to the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI).
They had arrived earlier than the people from the Department of Justice's anti-corruption division.
Their appearance was naturally noticed by the bodyguards, and one of them immediately ran into the lobby to report to Su Cheng and Zhang Qizheng.
"Uncle Zhang, please greet these guests who have come from afar," Su Cheng said with a smile.
"Yes, Boss!" Zhang Qizheng nodded and got up to greet them.
The company's security guards immediately recognized the identities of the suddenly appearing FBI agents.
They didn't dare to stop these people, so the FBI agents smoothly entered the building.
However, not daring to stop them didn't mean the security guards didn't take other actions.
One security guard quickly grabbed a walkie-talkie, went to a concealed spot, and reported to Habakkuk Andrew in the chairman's office.
"People from the FBI? What are they here for?" Habakkuk Andrew muttered to himself, not reacting for a moment.
He believed that he had been doing things discreetly, and that unless someone spent a lot of effort investigating, they wouldn't be able to uncover the things he had done.
Therefore, Habakkuk Andrew didn't think in that direction when the FBI agents arrived.
However, coming here definitely meant something was up, so he couldn't help but be cautious.
"Keep an eye on them and notify me immediately if there's any news," Habakkuk Andrew ordered the security guard.
"Yes, Boss!" The security guard responded and immediately reported the matter to the head of security.
Although surveillance systems had already appeared in this era, they weren't yet widespread.
Therefore, the Nami Entertainment headquarters building didn't have a surveillance system installed.
Otherwise, monitoring wouldn't have been so troublesome.
Returning to the scene in the first-floor lobby.
Zhang Qizheng stepped forward to greet them, then took out the documents from his briefcase and handed them to the FBI agents.
Because he had reported the matter to both the FBI and the Department of Justice's anti-corruption division, Zhang Qizheng had brought two copies of the documents this time.
After receiving the documents, the FBI agents immediately began to read through them.
And outside the door, another car arrived.
This time, it was the belated personnel from the Department of Justice's anti-corruption division.
The two didn't belong to the same department, but that didn't stop them from both having the authority to investigate corruption cases involving listed companies.
It was precisely for this reason that Zhang Qizheng had chosen to bring both sides in.
Seeing the personnel from the Department of Justice's anti-corruption division enter, Zhang Qizheng also took out another set of documents from his briefcase as usual.
At the same time, he once again reported the ins and outs of the matter to the personnel in detail.
The personnel from the Department of Justice's anti-corruption division glanced at the FBI group, then walked to the side and began to read as well.
Although both were government departments, they were also competitors in the open and in secret, and neither side liked the other.
The surrounding security guards had already seen everything and knew the seriousness of the matter, so they quickly reported the matter to Habakkuk Andrew in the office.
As Habakkuk Andrew's loyal dogs, this group of security personnel had been personally cultivated by Habakkuk Andrew from the very beginning of the company's establishment.
Therefore, within Nami Entertainment, these security guards had always only listened to Habakkuk Andrew's orders.
The newest novels are first published on 69shu.com!
"Fuck!" Habakkuk Andrew realized the seriousness of the matter upon hearing the security guard's report.
Clearly, they already possessed sufficient evidence. It turned out that this power struggle wasn't as simple as he had imagined.
"Looks like I need to prepare to run!" Habakkuk Andrew paced back and forth in his office.
The security guard had reported Zhang Qizheng's conversations with the FBI and the Department of Justice's anti-corruption division to Habakkuk Andrew in detail, so Habakkuk Andrew no longer held any illusions.
Therefore, he didn't actually have much capital in the United States.
If he could escape, then as long as he could leave the United States, he would only lose his shares in Nami Entertainment.
He would naturally choose the former over 100 million US dollars and 23.84% of Nami Entertainment's shares.
Because Nami Entertainment's market value was only a little over 100 million US dollars, which meant that his shares were worth at most just over 20 million US dollars.
As far as he was concerned, he would be willing to abandon these shares in an emergency.
Now, Habakkuk Andrew faced the biggest problem, which was how to escape from here and then quickly leave the United States.
It wasn't far from Hollywood to the coast, only twenty-odd kilometers. Once he could reach the coast, he would have a way to leave the United States.
Over the years, he had already set up a fishing boat company on the coast of Santa Monica. Not only were his people there, but there were also ocean-going fishing boats that could leave the United States. Once he got there, he could go wherever he wanted.
The chairman's office was on the second floor of the company. It wouldn't be difficult to go down from the back window, and there was a rope in the office.
Now that things had reached this point, he could only take this path!
Thinking of this, Habakkuk Andrew acted immediately, taking out a hemp rope from under his desk and tying one end of the rope to the window.
