Chapter 608

General Ji and Lai Changxing want to find themselves to help them launder money. This week Hao can understand.

The so-called "black money" is money that can not be seen. Its source must be illegal, such as drug trafficking, arms trafficking, smuggling, fraud, robbery, corruption, including money obtained from tax evasion. Money laundering is to legalize these illegal gains through a series of transactions and transformations. The most important thing is to cover up the true source and put on a legal cover.

For criminal groups, it is very important to make them enjoy these illegal gains openly and legally, and make their criminal power expand through reinvestment.

In fact, there are more underground funds circulating in various countries all over the world than the circulating funds in financial markets, that is, hot money. Due to the importance of money laundering to criminal groups, money laundering groups are becoming more and more refined and professional, and become "bankers" in the underground world, providing money laundering services for various criminal groups.

Whether he was a financial staff in Huangshi group in his previous life or has become a mysterious force in the financial market in this life, Zhou Hao knows clearly that money laundering is very easy, especially through transnational financial institutions, as long as he is familiar with the law and has sufficient professional skills in financial operation. Through the increasingly close international economic and trade relations, those black money can easily be turned into legitimate income.

The larger and more famous financial institutions are, the easier it will be to complete the money laundering procedures.

However, unless the criminal groups with huge power and financial resources, such as those international Mafia, drug lords and terrorist organizations, will launder money through professional financial institutions, or simply set up financial institutions specialized in money laundering. Just like those drug lords in South America, they set up their own banks, which not only launder money for their own drug cartels, but also provide services for other criminal groups.

As for those "scattered" criminals who do not form a group, they usually use casinos to launder money for themselves. Therefore, gambling cities like Macao and Las Vegas are actually money laundering places. This is why corrupt officials in China like to run to Macao and Las Vegas.

Although Zhou Hao's "Star River Investment Company" is unknown in the financial circles, in fact, "Star River Investment Company" has become the most powerful private investment institution in Asia. After continuous expansion, the number of regular employees of "Xinghe" has exceeded 200, and none of them is mediocre, all of them can be called financial elites.

These people were recruited from all over the world, including the United States, the United Kingdom, Switzerland, France, India, Israel and even Japan. Each of them had unique financial talents. Under the leadership of song Jiahao and willias, the two most capable traders, they became the cog of maintaining the operation of "star River". They didn't know the strength of "Star River" at first. It was just because of the rich salary offered by Zhou Hao. After joining "Star River", they realized that it was no less powerful than quantum fund and Tiger Fund.

The talents in the "Star River" come from all over the world, but the pure Chinese people only account for a small number. These Chinese financial professionals are all from Shanghai and Shenzhen, two domestic financial centers, or high-end talents in Hong Kong. Although subjectively, Zhou Hao doesn't like Americans and Japanese, he also has to admit that the biggest characteristic of these talents with typical Western ideas is that they can work faithfully for their employers as long as they have enough high salary. What kind of national defense is not comparable to their own work among people with strong democratic ideas.

Just like Zhou Hao's financial activities in the Japanese stock market before, the Japanese in the company were not uncomfortable at all. They would not be merciful in the operation. Instead, they were extremely active in order to improve their bonus.

Moreover, since these people entered the "Star River", they will be immediately monitored by the intelligence agencies of the "first army". In view of the role of "Star River" in the Indonesian turmoil, the No.1 chief executive and Premier Zhu have already seen the importance of "Star River". In addition, with the relationship between Zhao Rixin and the government, the state attaches great importance to the integrity of "Star River" and explains that the "first army" should be closely protected "Star River".

Perhaps it is because the supreme leader attaches great importance to "Star River". In order to facilitate the operation of "Star River", the domestic financial regulatory authorities, including Hong Kong, have relaxed supervision on "Star River". Therefore, general Ji wants to ask Zhou Hao to help them launder money.

However, Zhou Hao can only earn a large amount of money from his legal investment in the financial market. Where does he need to help others launder money to earn "extra money", let alone general Ji and Lai Changxing? Moreover, Zhou Hao is also surprised that although his "Star River" is powerful, when it comes to money laundering, it is far behind the Li family in terms of experience and profession. Why don't general Ji and Lai Changxing go to them?

After thinking about it for a long time, Zhou Hao said with a smile to general Ji: "it's really my honor to cooperate with a big man like general Ji. I just don't know what projects general Ji wants to cooperate with."

General Ji did not know that Zhou Hao had already made up his mind that he would never help him launder money. When he heard Zhou Hao say this, he immediately said with a smile: "I know that your" Star River Investment Company "now specializes in financial investment. However, I think you also know that finance can change when it is said to change. No one can guarantee that the market will rise or fall tomorrow, so the risk is high It's still very big. Although Tianhe beverage group, the two industrial groups in China, has made a lot of money, it still needs to repay loans to major banks. As for the Polaris media group, it's a money burning machine. Both ATV and Star River satellite TV have spent a lot of money and have not yet started to make profits. "He really knows Zhou Hao very well. Zhou Hao can't deny what he said. However, the value of Tianhe beverage group and Polaris media group is not what general Ji, who is engaged in intelligence work, can know.

Just listen to general Ji continue to say: "so I say, ah, your two industrial groups, not only can't bring you profits, but also become your burden in a short time. By the way, your mother's Tongguang catering company, although its development momentum is very good, but 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 nodded, but in his heart he sneered. Most of the enterprises that have achieved great success are seldom favored in the early stage of development before the emergence of profits. For example, Zhou Hao, although their economic benefits are not prominent, they will certainly become the leaders in their fields within ten years.

"Now I have a trade business with Lao Lai. I want to cooperate with Xiao Hao." General Ji said with a smile to Zhou Hao: "because there is a little problem with our funds, we need you to help us operate. But Xiaohao, you can rest assured that except for the capital, there is no problem in all other aspects. The risk is definitely smaller than that of investing in the stock market, and the return is absolutely rich. "

"Trade business?" Zhou Hao smiles, which is obviously Lai Changxing's smuggling business.

Because China's tariff on imported products is very high, and many domestic resources are also prohibited from export. In this way, if we can get through the door, smuggling business is really a big profit. Even at some times, the state will acquiesce in or secretly support smuggling activities. For example, in the border areas between China and Russia, there are a large number of smuggling activities, from airplanes and cannons to rice, grain, salt and oil. In order to obtain Russian resources and high-tech weapons, the central authorities basically acquiesce in smuggling activities in the border areas, and sometimes send secret troops to protect the safety of smugglers. In fact, the central government has deliberately supported several well-known "fallen masters" of China in Russia in order to obtain more Russian ones Edge material.

However, such smuggling activities against Russia were only active before and after the disintegration of the Soviet Union and when the political situation in Russia was still unstable, and now it is much less.

However, Lai Changxing's smuggling activities along the southeast coast were completely different from those in Russia at that time. It not only did no good to the country, but also caused huge losses to the country's economy. It would be fine if Lai Changxing was just that kind of fussy fish and shrimp, but now he seems to be the king of smuggling in Asia.

Of course, Zhou Hao would not directly refuse general Ji and Lai Changxing. After organizing the words in his mind, he said to the two people: "general Ji, boss Lai, it's really unfortunate to say that. In fact, I'm also very interested in your trade business. However, in order to make the next investment, almost all the funds of" Xinghe "have been transferred out. Moreover, the previous cooperation projects between "Xinghe" and SASAC are now in the transition stage. Therefore, the central government is very concerned about "Xinghe". I have heard a little about boss Lai's trade business. If I cooperate with boss Lai now, it will certainly be noticed by the people from SASAC. It doesn't matter to me. But if boss Lai's business is involved, I'm really ashamed of the two big brothers. "
