Cosma Empire

On the morning of the third day, Juan's eldest son had a gloomy face, with anger and a trace of inexplicable mockery in his eyes. He pushed the door into Juan's office and smashed the document that Juan signed with Eric yesterday. on the table.

Juan looked up at his eldest son, "Do you have a problem with me, or do you have a problem with this thing on the table?"

Juan's children are not easy-going. They want to gain a higher status and more power in the family, but Juan never gives them everything they want. In Juan's eyes, these children are still a little too immature, although as long as he is alive, no one can do anything to him and his business in Illian, no one dares to do anything to his children, But he just wasn't so relieved.

In many cases, Juan is also very clear that he should actually let go of part of his power and property to teach the children to take care of them and cultivate their working ability. But Juan, who stood out from many workshops, had a desire to control power that surpassed his reason. He knew that what he did was wrong, and he couldn't make the final decision.

In this environment, his children will naturally complain. The eldest son is already twenty-nine years old, and he has two children. Up to now, he is only the manager of a bar, managing the bar instead of Juan. There is no power in decision-making.

This situation is actually very painful. The pain is that no matter whether Juan’s children work in the family business or leave the family business to start a business, they can’t get rid of the shadow that Juan casts on them. Some resentment is not a strange thing.

The eldest son Cullen pushed the documents and bank rubbings in front of Juan with a mocking smile. After staring at his eldest son for a few seconds, Juan calmly lowered his head. He just glanced at it and raised his eyebrows.

The content of the rubbings of the bank documents is very simple. Eric has mortgaged all the shares of East Coast Entertainment to the bank some time ago. In other words, the equity transfer agreement signed by Juan and Eric two days ago is Invalid, and at the same time his one million promissory note was thrown into the water.

Juan, who had some headaches, looked up at his eldest son again. The latter shrugged, "I have gone to catch Eric myself, but he disappeared. Not only our people are catching him, but Durin's people are catching him , There are still many people looking for Eric. There are about 20 to 30 scammers in the whole city, and the district police station has counted, and the total amount of fraud has exceeded 4 million!"

For Cullen, he is completely a joke mentality. Juan is old, but he is unwilling to give up any power. Although the children have a lot of complaints against him, no one dares to say anything, at least to So far, no investment has failed to prove that Juan's so-called "fate" argument is indeed a bit magical. But now such an unexpected investment failure has caused great damage to Juan's authority at home.

"I don't believe that a person can disappear without leaving a clue,

Someone must have seen Eric, know what he did, or where he went, and find him, and pay him to tell us all he knows. ", Juan made a decision almost without thinking. As always, he made a decision without discussing it with his children.

Cullen lowered his head slightly, "As you wish, father."

This must be a futile search, Eric seems to have evaporated in the world, no one knows where he went, no one has seen his disappearance, he is like a person who did not exist in the first place.

On the second day of Eric's disappearance, people gathered in the office of the chief of the regional police department. The bureau chief broke out in a cold sweat when he saw some rich and famous people. The only thing he was thankful for was that the mistake was not his fault. He looked at the manager of the Imperial Bank standing beside him, and gently poked his arm with his elbow, "You have to say something."

The manager nodded. This is why he asked the chief of police to gather all the deceived people here. He must make it clear to these victims that the bank was not actually deceived, because the shares of the East Coast Entertainment Company are all in the In the hands of the bank, although it is a bit too domineering to say so, the manager of the Imperial Central Bank cannot bear the loss of 550,000, so someone else must bear the account.

He knocked on the table, and the small conference room fell silent. This conference room was used for interrogation work before, so it was not very big, and it was a little crowded. He showed a document, which had been made into rubbings and sent to every deceived person. The rubbings were very simple, with the signature of the person in charge of the bank's mortgage loan department, the seal of the Irian District Court, and Eric's signature.

In fact, strictly speaking, a contract signed by both parties themselves has the same legal effect, but the bank's document has an extra court seal, which is naturally superior to others. He coughed lightly, "I invite you here today to explain one thing. According to the proof of the court, East Coast Entertainment has mortgaged all its shares to the Irian Branch of the Imperial Central Bank, which has the signatures of both of us, and The seal of the court has legal precedence over those present here."

"Because Mr. Eric, one of the parties involved, has absconded in fear of crime, according to the terms of the mortgage loan agreement, Mr. Eric has given up the right to redeem the shares of East Coast Entertainment Company. From today, East Coast Entertainment Company will belong to the empire. The Illian Branch of the Central Bank owns..."

Before the manager finished speaking, he saw someone clenched the agreement in his hand and threw it over. He tilted his body and escaped easily, but he was somewhat embarrassed. They were not the last to sign the agreement, but they were not the first to sign either, so some people were naturally not happy about it. Obviously we spend money in front of you, why should someone run away from the company and become your property? There is no such reason in the world!

Faced with such a non-threatening attack, the bank manager had obviously expected it. Some of them invested more than half or even all of their savings in it, but now they are told that they are in vain, how could they be reconciled?

"I'm sorry, after our review at the Illian Branch of the General Chamber of Commerce, although you have handed over the money to Eric and confirmed your investment behavior on paper, there is no record in the files of the Chamber of Commerce except for Eric. With any share power holder other than his long-disappeared partner, that is to say, the agreement you signed does not actually have any legal effect, because this is an agreement that has not completed all procedures, according to the relevant imperial law clauses, they are effectively void!"

"If you have any dissatisfaction and other situations, you can consult a lawyer, or even go to the court to file a lawsuit against Eric. In addition, I would like to add a digression. After our short and effective work, in the archives of the chamber of commerce branch, The registered power holder of the East Coast Entertainment Company has been changed to the Imperial Central Bank, and no other power holders will be accepted for registration..."

For a moment, people were dumbfounded. To be honest, some people didn't know that the change of share rights holders had to be registered with the chamber of commerce branch, while others thought that this kind of thing should be done by Eric, not them.

After a brief silence, the entire small meeting room immediately became chaotic, everyone was expressing their own thoughts, and it was so chaotic that it was impossible to hear clearly. After arguing for about two or three minutes, the chief of the police station patted the table vigorously, and the small meeting room fell silent. He straightened his police cap, and said in a deep voice, "I understand the anger in everyone's hearts at this moment, and I also understand the anger in everyone's hearts. I can understand you, but the problem is that something has already happened. We have also filed a case for this and notified the police stations and courts in most states. Once there is news about Eric, I will notify you as soon as possible and try to recover it for everyone. loss."

"Now, I hope everyone can calm down and wait for our good news."

At this time, an old man suddenly stood up and said with a sad face: "I don't want to know any bullshit good news, I just want to know when I can get my money back..." He was suddenly taken aback, people still When he thought that the old man had an emergency, the old man suddenly asked: "If we redeem the shares of East Coast Entertainment Company, is it possible?"

The manager was also taken aback for a moment, he hesitated, and finally nodded. This matter is a bit tricky. Originally, the East Coast Entertainment Company was indeed a good investment project. However, with the strong presence of the George family, the financial experts inside the bank are no longer optimistic about building most of the theaters in the fourth and fifth districts. Coastal Entertainment, too. In layman's terms, poor people may not necessarily have habitual consumption of movies. Perhaps the profits of a dozen movie theaters are not as good as those in the first and second districts.

This problem was not obvious before, but the powerful George family directly built theaters in the first three districts, and there was no sign of building theaters in the fourth and fifth districts. Under such a struggle, East Coast Entertainment is very likely to change from a "profit state" to a "loss state." The reason why the manager wants to seize the company is not to continue the operation, but to dismantle the company completely, and then build some residential houses on the land, so as to recoup the capital or even make a fortune.

It will take time, and at the same time, it will require deeper investment. Right now, East Coast Entertainment is in a quagmire, and it's hard to say whether it can get out of it. Hearing the old man's question, the manager hesitated for a moment, then nodded in agreement.

The rate of return may be lower than expected in this way, but it is safe and stable!
