Chapter 9 — The Former General's Ex-Wife Was a Genius Advisor

In the afternoon project planning meeting, the person in charge of the project was Qi Yuanming. He briefly introduced the basic situation of To Mien Nguyet studio.

"The target company has been established for two years, the founder is To Mien Nguyet, focusing on high-end interior design and collab fashion design projects. Current valuation is about 80 million yuan, target capital raising is 30 million yuan."

More than a dozen people in the meeting room flipped through the documents. Qi Yuanming paused and glanced at me: "Who should I assign the preliminary analysis report of this project?" In the corner, a veteran analyst raised his hand: "Boss Te, I'm quite familiar with these types of consumer projects." Qi Yuanming shook his head: "Let the new person do it." All eyes turned to me.

"Lam Van Tinh, this project is assigned to you for preliminary appraisal. Submit the analysis report three days later."

I nodded: “Yes.” After the meeting, the senior specialist called me back in the hallway.

"You are Lam Van Tinh, right?"

“Yes.”

"This project is a bit complicated, you are new and may not understand the market situation well. How about I guide you?"

His tone seemed friendly, but in his eyes, the words "a vase of flowers leaning against the company can do nothing" are clearly written. I smiled: "Thank you, Mr. Chau, but I can do it myself." He shrugged: "It's up to you. When something goes wrong, don't blame me for not reminding you." Returning to my seat, I opened To Mien Nguyet studio's financial report and compared each item. I used Dinh Huy's database to cross-check the three suspicious transfers that Tran Niem once flagged in the investigation documents. The ghost company registered in Cayman is called Star Bridge Holdings. It took me two hours to retrieve this company's equity structure. Following that structure, all information about the actual controller is in the offshore trust, the real name cannot be found. But there is a clue. The domestic affiliate company of Star Bridge Holdings has a registered address at Building A, Dong Ho Technology Park, Giang City, Room 1201. I have been to that building. A subsidiary of the Co Group is located there. Floor 12. Room 1201. I privately copied this discovery into my notebook. Not included in the report. Because now is not the time. The next two days, I used the most standard and conservative analysis model to complete the preliminary appraisal report. The conclusion is —— Not recommended for investment. The reason has three points: First, To Mien Nguyet studio's revenue structure depends too much on a single customer file, causing concentration risk. Second, there are many unusual fluctuations in cash flow that cannot be explained. Third, the growth assumption in the valuation model is too drastic and inconsistent with industry reality. Each one is backed by data, each item withstands scrutiny. I submitted a report to Qi Yuanming. He read for half an hour, without saying a word, then called me into his office and closed the door.

“This report, are you sure?”

“I'm sure.”

“I know who is the person behind To Mien Nguyet.”

“Investment analysis only looks at the data, not the people behind it.”

Te Vien Minh was silent for a long time.

“If copy Once this report gets out, the Co family will react."

“Last time Dinh Huy invested in the wrong project out of respect for his relationship, how much money did he lose?”

His face changed: "You knew about that?"

“Uncle Te, before coming here to work, it doesn't mean I didn't do anything.”

Te Vien Minh looked at me deeply: "I understand. I will present this report to superiors.” *
