Chapter 29: Finished [1]
On the morning of the third day, Juan's eldest son looked gloomy, his eyes were filled with anger and a hint of unspeakable mockery. He pushed the door and walked into Juan's office. The documents signed by Juan and Eric yesterday fell on the table.
Juan looked up at his eldest son, "Do you have any objections to me or what is on the table?"
Juan's children were not a good-looking lamp. They wanted to gain a higher status and more power in the family, but Juan never gave them everything they wanted. In Juan's eyes, these children were a little too young. Although as long as he was alive for one day, no one could do anything to him and his business in Ilian, and no one dared to do anything to his children, he was just not so relieved.
Many times, Juan is also very clear that he should actually let go of some of the power and industry to teach children to manage and cultivate their work ability. However, Juan, who stood out from many workshops, has a desire to control power more than his rationality. He knows that he is wrong in doing so, but he cannot make the final decision.
In this environment, his children naturally complained that their eldest son was twenty-nine years old and had two children. They are now only in one bar manager, who manages the bar instead of Juan, and has no power in making decisions.
This situation is actually very painful. The pain is that whether Juan's children work in a family business or leave the family business to start a business, they cannot get rid of the shadows put on them by Juan. It is not strange that some resentment is not a strange thing.
The eldest son Kulun pushed the documents and bank rubbings in his hand to Juan with a sarcastic smile. After staring at his eldest son for several seconds, Juan calmly lowered his head. He just glanced at him and his brows stood up.
The rubbing of the bank documents is very simple. Eric had 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 was invalid, and his one million promissory note was also thrown into the water.
Juan, who had some headaches, looked up at his eldest son again, and the latter shrugged, "I have already gone to catch Eric in person, but he disappeared. Not only are our people arresting him, but Dulin's people arresting him, but many people are looking for Eric. There are about twenty to thirty deceiveds in the entire city. The district police station counted it and said that the total amount of cheated has exceeded four million!"
For Coulon, he was completely a joke mentality. Juan was old, but he was unwilling to give up any power. Although the children had great complaints about him, no one dared to say anything. At least no failed investment so far proves that Juan's so-called "destiny" argument is indeed a bit magical. But now such an unexpected investment failure has caused great destruction to Juan's authority at home.
"I don't believe that a person can disappear without leaving any clues. Someone must have seen Eric, knowing what he did, or where he went, finding this person, and then giving him a sum of money to tell us everything he knew." Juan made a decision without thinking, and as always, he never discussed with his children and made a decision.
Kulun lowered his head slightly, "As you wish, father."
This must be a futile search. Eric was like evaporating from the world. No one knew where he went, no one had seen him appear, he was like a person who did not exist.
On the second day after Eric disappeared, people gathered in the office of the director of the regional police station. The director saw some wealthy people and celebrities, and his cold sweat came down. The only thing worthy of his gratitude was that this mistake was not in his hands. He looked at the Imperial Bank manager standing beside him, and poked his arm quietly with his elbow, "You have to say something."
The manager nodded. This was also the reason why he asked the police chief to gather all the deceived people here. He had to make it clear to these victims that the bank was not cheated, because the equity of the East Coast Entertainment Company was in the hands of the bank. Although it was a bit too domineering to say this, the manager of the Imperial Bank could not bear the loss of 550,000, so someone else had to take the account.
He knocked on the table, and the small conference room became quiet. This conference room was used for interrogation before, so it was not very big, a little crowded. He presented a document, which had been rubbed and sent to every deceived person. The rubbing was very simple, with the signature of the head of the bank's mortgage department, the seal of the Ilian District Court, and the signature of Eric.
In fact, in a strict sense, the contract signed by both parties themselves is equally legally beneficial, but the bank's document has an extra court seal, which is naturally higher than the others. He coughed lightly, "I would like to explain something today. With the court's proof, East Coast Entertainment Company has mortgaged all its equity to the Illian Branch of the Imperial Central Bank, which has the signatures of both of us and the seal of the court. The legal priority is better than those present."
"As one of the parties involved, Mr. Eric has absconded with guilt. According to the terms of the mortgage agreement, Mr. Eric has waived the right to redeem the equity of East Coast Entertainment Company. From today on, the East Coast Entertainment Company will belong to the Illian Branch of the Illian Branch of the Illian Bank..."
Before the manager finished speaking, he saw someone holding the agreement in his hand and throwing it over. He tilted his body and easily avoided it, but it was a little embarrassed. They were not the last agreement, but they were not the first one to sign, so naturally some people were unhappy. We obviously spent money in front of you, so why did people leave the company and become your thing? There is no such reason in the world!
Faced with such a threatening attack, the bank manager obviously had already expected it. Some of them invested most or even all of their savings, but now they told them that they were wasted, how could they be willing?
"Sorry, after we reviewed the Ilian Branch of the General Chamber of Commerce, although you handed over the money to Eric and determined your investment behavior on paper, the files of the Chamber of Commerce did not register any shareholders of shares except Eric and his long-lost partner. In other words, the agreement you signed does not actually have any legal effect, because this is an agreement that has not completed all processes, and according to the relevant terms of the Imperial Law, they have actually been invalidated!"
"If you have any dissatisfaction or other circumstances, you can consult a lawyer or even go to the court to file a lawsuit against Eric. In addition, I will also add a breakdown. After our brief and effective work, in the archives of the Chamber of Commerce, the registered power person of the East Coast Entertainment Company has been changed to the Imperial Bank and no longer accepted registration of other power persons..."
In an instant, people were stunned. To be honest, some people did not know that the changes in the shareholders' power had to go to the Chamber of Commerce branch to register, while others believed that Eric should do this, not them.
After a brief silence, the entire small conference room immediately became chaotic. Everyone was expressing their thoughts, and they couldn't hear anything clearly. After arguing for about two or three minutes, the police chief slapped the table hard, and the small conference room finally became quiet. He straightened his police cap and said in a deep voice: "I understand the anger in everyone's heart at this time, and I can understand you. The problem is that things have happened. We have also filed a case for this and informed the police stations and courts in most states. Once there is news about Eric, I will notify everyone as soon as possible and recover the losses for everyone as much as possible."
"Now, I hope everyone can calm down and wait for our good news."
At this moment, an old man suddenly stood up and said with a look of grief and anger: "I don't want to know any bad news, I just want to know when my money can be brought back..." He was suddenly stunned. When people thought the old man had an emergency, the old man suddenly asked: "If we redeem the shares of East Coast Entertainment Company, can we do it?"
The manager was also stunned for a moment. He hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded. This matter was a bit tricky. Originally, East Coast Entertainment was indeed a good investment project, but with the strong entry of the George family, financial experts within the bank were no longer optimistic about building most theaters in the East Coast Entertainment Company in the fourth and fifth zones. In layman's terms, poor people may not necessarily have inertial consumption of movies, and perhaps the profits of more than a dozen cinemas are not as good as those in the first and second zones.
This problem was not obvious in the past, but the powerful George family directly built the theaters in the first three districts, and there was no sign of building theaters in the fourth and fifth districts. In such a battle, East Coast Entertainment Company is very likely to go from a "profit state" to a "loss state". The reason why the manager wanted to take the company was not to continue to operate. His purpose was to completely dismember the company and then build some houses on the land, so as to make a return or even make a fortune in this way.
This takes time and requires deeper investment. Now East Coast Entertainment Company is a quagmire, and it is hard to say whether it can come out if it gets stuck. Hearing the old man asks this, the manager just hesitates for a moment and nods in agreement.
