City of the City 城中之城 Episode 4

Zhao Rui was diagnosed with primary retinitis pigmentosa, a disease that causes central visual field loss year by year, and there is currently no effective treatment in China. Although Miao Che's ex-wife Ma Li recommended a new American technology to Zhao Hui, claiming that it could treat Zhao Rui's eye disease, the high cost and potential risks made it difficult for Zhao Hui to afford it.

Wu Xianlong, the boss of Junlong Real Estate, persuaded Zhao Hui not to give up treatment because of money, and wanted to connect with Xie Zhiyuan through him to solve the company's capital turnover problem. Although Zhao Hui hesitated, he still agreed to help and personally called Xie Zhiyuan to arrange a meeting. In order to sell favors to Zhao Hui, Xie Zhiyuan readily cooperated with Wu Xianlong.

Early the next morning, Zhao Hui watched the video evidence that Tao Wuji secretly recorded and initially judged that Gauss Bull had committed fraud. However, Tao Wuji ignored the company’s background and upstream and downstream relationships during the investigation, which put them at risk of being rejected again based solely on the existing materials.

In order to obtain more evidence, Tao Wuji disguised himself as a hotel waiter and entered the private room, taking advantage of the opportunity of pouring water to film the conversation. Surprisingly, he discovered that Su Jianren was also involved. Fortunately, Tao Wuji was wearing a mask and was not recognized by Su Jianren. The next day, he cleverly avoided Su Jianren's vigilance in the bank lobby and lied that he had accompanied Cheng Jiayuan to report to the department, thereby eliminating the other party's doubts.

Tao Wuji organized the photos and handed them to Zhao Hui, and revealed that Su Jianren attended the dinner. Zhao Hui asked Tao Wuji to delete the part of the video where Su Jianren appeared, which puzzled Tao Wuji. He said that he only wanted to promote the Sunshine Project and provide suitable loans to companies, rather than engage in the auditing industry. Even if such an illegal inspection is exposed, it is at best an insignificant warning, without any value or significance, and may even create enemies for itself.

In Zhao Hui's view, even if Tao Wuji wants to stick to his principles, he must at least wait until the right time. Zhao Hui hoped that Tao Wuji could deeply understand the rules inside, but Tao Wuji was greatly shocked by this incident and ran to the roof of the building alone in a daze, unable to calm down for a long time. It happened that Master Bai Yu came to the top floor. Tao Wuji saw her eyes were red and her wrist was injured. After questioning, he learned that she had suffered domestic violence. He wanted to get an explanation for her, but was stopped by Bai Yu.

While Miao Che was busy with the divorce mess, he also had to investigate the truth behind Dai Qiye's accident for Zhao Hui. It turns out that on the night of the incident, the share price of Jiaxiang Industrial fell to the bottom on the New York Stock Exchange. Three days ago, a billion in financial management funds flowed into the account of the BVI company in the name of the government industrial fund, and Cao Jiaxiang was working under Xie Zhiyuan and Dai Qiye. With the help of others, the funds were used to play games with overseas capital.

During that period, Jiaxiang Industrial encountered malicious short-selling overseas and sought support from various sources to stabilize its share price. Unfortunately, it encountered bloodthirsty international investment banks. A slight mistake could cause the equity to fall into the hands of overseas capital, endangering the entire industry. Industry market share. Since Cao Jiaxiang and Dai Qiye have had a deep friendship for more than 20 years, and they are high-quality private enterprises that Dai Qiye has always supported, he would not hesitate to help at a critical moment, even if he violated serious regulations.

However, a coup occurred in a small South American country that night, resulting in the inability to transport the mine resources that Jiaxiang Industrial urgently needed. Short sellers on Wall Street took this opportunity to launch a massive attack, and everyone predicted that a stock crash was inevitable. It was precisely because Dai Qiye listened to the radio broadcast that he could not accept such a result, which eventually led to the car accident.

What is unexpected is that at the same time as Dai Qiye's accident, Cao Jiaxiang finally solved the transportation problem of raw materials in South America. Coupled with the last-ditch effort of that capital, the stock price unexpectedly experienced a shocking reversal. The short position was liquidated, Jiaxiang Company came back from the dead and became the king of the industry, and quickly and silently filled the bank's capital hole, all within a few minutes.

Miao Che lamented that fate played tricks on people and stopped Zhao Hui's urge to report Xie Zhiyuan. Once things got serious, Dai Qiye's death might become an indelible stain. Faced with the choice between justice and humanity, Zhao Hui fell into a dilemma. He looked at the young people chatting and laughing at the next table, and missed the lost youth and lost innocence with Miao Che.

Manager Wang took Tian Xiaohui to meet the client and was furious because she filled in the numbers on the contract without authorization. But later he discovered that the numbers she filled in were completely accurate, which made him change his mind about Tian Xiaohui. After Xie Zhiyuan learned that Manager Wang had promoted the cooperation, he arranged for him to take Zhou Lin to meet Su Jianren to discuss project approval. Originally, Su Jianren had many refusals, but as soon as he saw Zhou Lin, he immediately became proactive.

Cheng Jiayuan was filled with disdain when he saw Su Jianren's flattery, and deliberately knocked over the coffee and splashed it all over him, making Su Jianren furious. After get off work, Tao Wuji took Cheng Jiayuan home for dinner. Unexpectedly, his university senior brother Jiang Rui also came to Shanghai. Tao's father prepared the meal, and the four of them sat around the dining table and chatted. After drinking some wine, Cheng Jiayuan began to pour out his heart, revealing the father-son relationship between him and Su Jianren. However, Su Jianren fooled around all day long and was not responsible for his family and children, so his mother and Su Jianren divorced.
