Restart 2008: Start the counterattack by saving the stunning female teacher

Chapter 458 That’s Su Yang

Zhang Xinjie on the screen has begun to prove his point. He first listed the report issued by PricewaterhouseCoopers, which contained details about the publicity and marketing expenses.

"According to the report, Daheng Group has invested a total of 5.6 million yuan in publicity and marketing activities since the start of construction of the three projects, including TV advertising, Internet advertising, newspapers, stations, and outdoor billboards."

"But according to the internal accounts of Daheng Group, all the publicity and marketing were outsourced to Jiangcheng Weilong Advertising Co., Ltd. Apart from the cost of the lucky draw marketing activities held by the sales office itself, a total of 3 million yuan in advertising fees were paid to Weilong Advertising Co., Ltd. last year!"

"Even if you include the raffle, it's only 3.2 million yuan!"

"In this project, the project report issued by PricewaterhouseCoopers inflated the cost by 2.4 million yuan!"

Reporters at the press conference pressed shutter buttons frantically towards the PPT and Zhang Xinjie. The sound of cameras clicking and the microphone being passed closer and closer almost touched Zhang Xinjie's mouth.

Zhang Xinjie pressed the next page: "But this is just the beginning. In addition to marketing expenses, Daheng Group has inflated the cost of more than 800,000 yuan in the entertainment expenses under management expenses!"

"You can see on the screen that there are invoices for reimbursement of costs, and a large part of them are concentrated in the last month."

"Why is the timing so concentrated? Because these tickets were bought!"

Zhang Xinjie's words shocked everyone again. Each and every one of these things revealed that the Jiangcheng branch of Daheng Group had falsified the accounts, and they did not expect that this was just the beginning.

Zhang Xinjie prepared a PPT of more than thirty pages, raising comprehensive questions about the certification issued by PricewaterhouseCoopers.

Su Yang also discussed this with Lu Wanjiang. He thought that Lu Wanjiang should work with the audit team to revise the audit report in a timely manner, but Lu Wanjiang refused.

Lu Wanjiang felt that they conducted accounting work according to the accounts provided by the branch of Daheng Group. Even if there were problems with the report, PwC's problem was not the main one. It was just that the accounts provided by the branch of Daheng Group were untrue and fraudulent.

Secondly, the Daheng Group Head Office did make some requests, hoping that they could increase some costs and let go appropriately.

According to the principle of who pays the money, who does the work, in theory, they include some things that can be included or not included in the project cost.

Thirdly, if PwC chooses to modify the audit report at this time to avoid being criticized by Zhang Xinjie, it would only make things more obvious. It would be better for them to be criticized together with the Daheng Group branch. In this way, when they propose to acquire the three projects of Daheng Group, they will not arouse suspicion.

Finally, Su Yang was persuaded by Lu Wanjiang, so he let Zhang Xinjie play freely.

A group of reporters squeezed closer and closer to the front. The 27 million inflated costs were the wages of hundreds of migrant workers and construction companies!

What’s more, it’s Daheng Group, a large domestic developer!

Big news, definitely big news!

A reporter from Jiangcheng Radio and Television Station held up a microphone and said, "Zhang Xinjie, after you made your real-name report, aren't you afraid of retaliation from the Daheng Group?"

Zhang Xinjie looked righteous.

"Now that I have said this, I am not afraid of retaliation from the Daheng Group. I am speaking out for the migrant workers who cannot get their salaries and have no food to eat!"

Another reporter also squeezed to the front and said, "Then let me ask Zhang Xinjie, as an accountant of Daheng Group, you stand up and report Daheng Group. Don't you think this is against professional ethics?"

Zhang Xinjie took a deep breath.

"Compared to professional ethics, I have to live up to my conscience!"

The questions and answers were very exciting.

Outside the conference room, President Wei knocked on the door. Looking at Si Xuezhong who was sitting in the main seat and looking at the screen, he rubbed his hands and laughed.

"Director Si, everything has been arranged!"

"After the press conference, this news will definitely make the front page!"

"I talked to the reporter from the local TV station and asked him to try his best to get us a ten-second report."

Si Xuezhong nodded, feeling somewhat relieved.

President Wei heaved a sigh of relief immediately, he had never expected that Si Xuezhong had actually bribed the accountant of Daheng Group. Now with this commotion, Zhongtian Construction was in the right again. After Zhang Xinjie's actions, Daheng Group would have to go through a lot of trouble to clear itself of the scandal.

Mr. Jiang, who was standing next to him, refilled Si Xuezhong's cup with hot water and poured a cup for Mr. Wei.

"As expected of Director Si, I have heard of his methods for a long time. After seeing them today, I, Old Jiang, will never be able to learn from them in my eight lifetimes!"

"Your move is so brilliant!"

“From the launch event, everything is under your control!”

Although Si Xuezhong didn't say anything, flattery never wears out, and who doesn't like to hear others praise them? He leaned back in his chair, relaxed, and drank a sip of water. All the worries and fears of these days were finally settled.

He put down the teacup and his eyes stayed on the screen, but the next second, he suddenly sat up straight.

Right on the screen, a man wearing a vest, a hat and holding a camera turned his head and subconsciously glanced at the screen. It was this glance that almost made Si Xuezhong sit upside down.

Because the person he saw was none other than Su Yang!

"Why is he here?"

Si Xuezhong pointed at Su Yang angrily.

President Wei took a look, frowned, and thought: "Oh, this is a reporter from Jiangcheng Daily, here to report the news!"

Si Xuezhong threw the cup to the ground.

"Reporter? A reporter from Jiangcheng Daily?"

"That's Su Yang!"

"Su Yang from Jitu Express!"

President Wei and President Jiang looked at each other. They had heard Si Xuezhong mention Su Yang's name a lot recently. Si Xuezhong repeatedly reminded them to be on guard against Su Yang from Jitu Express and never let him do anything naughty!

But they had been on guard for so long and had never even seen Su Yang.

There are a few Jitu Express employees who come to deliver packages every day, but there is no need to treat them as enemies!

Now Si Xuezhong told them that the reporter from Jiangcheng Daily sitting in the front row at the press conference was actually Su Yang, the chairman of Jitu Express!

A chairman of the board disguised himself as a reporter and came to Zhongtian Construction?

Si Xuezhong pointed at the screen angrily: "What the hell are you still standing there for? Pull him out for me!"

President Wei hesitated: "Director Si, the press conference is halfway through now. If I rush in with my men and drag him out, what if other reporters misunderstand me?"

"I saw him sitting there listening for a long time, but he didn't do anything. Are we making a big fuss about nothing?"

Si Xuezhong almost couldn't breathe. He pointed at Su Yang, trembling.

"I don't care who misunderstands me, or what the impact is. Send someone right now to drag him out of the press conference!"
