Chapter 13 — Ten Years of Loving You, A Lifetime of Learning to Love Yourself
Just one of those crimes is enough to make the entire Lam family have nowhere to turn. But... What really stopped me was the single most valuable transaction in the entire file. That was 30 million yuan recorded as an advance, transferred from a newly established cultural media company. I continued to trace the ownership chain of that company. The end result... It turned out to be someone that even I didn't expect. Mr. Truong. One of the members of the Board of Directors of Khai Hang Technology. It was also the person... The day Tran Thuy announced his divorce publicly... Who stood up first and applauded, congratulating him on "finally escaping the hell of marriage." They are truly on the same side. The Lam brothers... They are just chess pieces pushed forward. Their goal... was never Tran Thuy's private property. What they're really aiming for... Is all of Khai Hang Technology. They intended to falsify the books. Silently transfer assets out. Then he took advantage of Lam Hieu's position as Tran Thuy's heir to coordinate from inside and outside. Step by step... Step by step... Drain the entire corporation. It's truly an extremely beautiful way for cicadas to escape their bodies. If at first I was only satisfied with reclaiming shares. If I only stop after kicking Tran Thuy and Lam Hieu out of the company. Then what awaits me... It won't be a reclaimed corporation. It is a commercial empire that has been hollowed out and could collapse at any time. I stared at the intricate relationship diagram on the report. Not only did he not get angry... But he also laughed. I was just planning to kill a snake. Unexpectedly... I hit a nest of snakes. Don't have to waste time searching for each one. I picked up the phone. Call another Board member.
“Mr. Wang.”
“I have a great play.”
“Are you interested in watching it with me?”
The other end of the line laughed softly.
"President To has invited, of course I am very willing."
I smiled slightly.
“That's good.”
“I just want to remind you of something.”
“Our Dong Truong is nearby…”
“His hand seems to have reached too far.”
The other end of the line was immediately silent for a few seconds. A meaningful laugh slowly rang out.
“It looks like... there's going to be a good show.”
I slowly put down the phone. Already on display. It's time... Everyone sitting on the betting table... Must turn over their last card. A week later, Khai Hang Technology held its second extraordinary shareholders' meeting of the year. The topic of this meeting is to discuss the company's development strategy in the next period. All members of the Board of Directors were present, including Mr. Truong with a forced face, clearly not as calm as before. Only Tran Thuy did not appear. The chair that originally belonged to him remained empty, like a silent sarcasm for the person who once held the company's highest position. When the meeting officially started, I did not mention any development plans or business strategies. Instead, I signaled lawyer Vuong to distribute the prepared documents to all members of the Board of Directors. I'm calm looked at everyone and then slowly spoke:
“Before talking about the future, I think we should look back at the past together.”
Having finished speaking, I turned on the projector. What appeared on the screen was not a presentation of the development plan as everyone thought, but all the evidence of tax evasion by Lam Thi Construction Materials Company, accompanied by images of the scene of a construction road that was seriously damaged due to the use of substandard materials. I keep saying:
“Perhaps everyone is familiar with Lam Thi Construction Materials Company.”
"The largest shareholder of this business is Mr. Lam Dao, Lam Hieu's brother, who used to be Tran Thuy's secretary."
"The interesting thing is that during the past two years, this company has had extremely close financial transactions with a member of the Board of Directors of Khai Hang Technology."
Having said this, my eyes slowly scanned each person in the room. Finally, his eyes stopped on Mr. Truong's pale face.
“Mr. Truong.”
“I heard that the media company transferred 30 million yuan to you in advance, and the legal representative of that company is your wife's maternal cousin.”
"I'm very curious, do you intend to use this money to invest in making movies... or do you intend to quietly buy back Lam Thi Construction Materials Company, preparing for a plan to gradually gut Khai Hang Technology?"
As soon as I finished speaking, the entire meeting room immediately fell into a suffocating silence.
