Rebirth: Official Fortune Prosperity
Chapter 2479 Foreign Trade
Liu Fusheng knew very well that the Americans' arrest of Chen Fei was not a spur of the moment act, but a premeditated act.
However, the current international situation is significantly different from what Liu Fusheng remembers.
In the previous life, the Zhongwei Group posed a certain threat to Western countries led by the United States, shaking their monopoly in the communications field. This forced the United States to take shameless actions and attempted to curb the development of the Zhongwei Group by arresting company managers.
In this life, Zhongwei Group is still doing very well, but it is not as world-renowned as in the previous life.
Given the patience of the United States, it will not take action against him now.
Unless some people or organizations add fuel to the fire and trick Chen Fei here.
Liu Fusheng must figure out why the Americans arrested him. There is not enough benefit in doing so. Arresting a famous businessman who has nothing to do with politics will cause too much damage to the image of the United States.
After assigning the tasks, Liu Fusheng continued to sit in the office, waiting for the latest news.
Not long after, the Chinese Embassy in the United States called Liu Fusheng.
The embassy staff said bluntly: "Vice Governor Liu, we are sorry to interrupt your work. We must inform you about the arrest of Mr. Chen Fei, the chairman of the Zhongwei Group of Guangdong Province, by the US officials."
"You are here on behalf of the Guangdong Provincial Party Committee and the Provincial Government to conduct a business inspection in the United States. There are some situations that we need to understand from you."
Liu Fusheng said: "No problem, I am willing to cooperate with all investigations."
The other party asked: "Excuse me, did you know in advance that Chairman Chen Fei would come to the United States today?"
Liu Fusheng said: "Yes, Chairman Chen called me before taking off."
The other party said: "Except for Chen Fei and his team, you are the only one who knows the landing time and flight number of their plane, right?"
Liu Fusheng said: "No, besides me, there must be other people who know about it, because Chairman Chen went to the United States to participate in some business activities."
"Their company and business partners will all know about this trip, including the corresponding contact parties, and they should also know the landing time of Chairman Chen's plane."
Liu Fusheng knew very well that the embassy questioned him not because they had any suspicion about him, but because they wanted to confirm the whole story, so he told the truth without any resistance or concealment.
The embassy was also quite satisfied with his attitude: "Why did Governor Liu send Secretary Zhou to greet Chairman Chen?"
Liu Fusheng said: "Chairman Chen and I have had many contacts and we are old friends. He called me again when he came to the United States, so I naturally had to receive him accordingly. Zhongwei Group is a well-known high-tech enterprise in eastern Guangdong Province, and helping local enterprises develop is one of my job tasks."
The other party said: "You didn't know beforehand that Chairman Chen Fei would be arrested by the US authorities, right?"
Liu Fusheng said: "I don't know. I was shocked and angry by the actions of the US officials. My secretary Zhou Xiaozhe immediately communicated with the US officials responsible for arresting Chairman Chen and lodged a strong protest. He also reported the matter to the embassy."
The staff member said, "Thank you for your cooperation, Vice Governor Liu. Do you have any other information to provide?"
Liu Fusheng said: "I fully believe in Zhongwei Group and Chairman Chen Fei. I can guarantee that Mr. Chen Fei has not violated any U.S. laws and has not engaged in any inappropriate business practices."
Upon hearing this, the embassy staff quickly reminded: "Governor Liu, what you said seems a little inappropriate..."
Liu Fusheng said: "I know what I said means, but I am the vice governor in charge of economic development. I have full confidence in the local enterprises in East Guangdong Province. They don't need to do anything false to be competitive... When the embassy negotiates with the US government, please take my words into account. I think that at this time, it is particularly important for the companies and individuals who have been wronged to have the endorsement of government officials."
The staff member groaned, "Do you mean a public statement?"
Liu Fusheng said: "Yes, no matter what the occasion, I will be responsible for what I say."
The staff member said: "I sincerely admire your attitude. You are a responsible leader, which is a blessing for all enterprises in East Guangdong Province."
Liu Fusheng said, "Also, when Chairman Chen called me, he said that he came here at the invitation of an authoritative high-tech communications company in the United States. The company said that they wanted to transfer the world's leading communications patents. I think the patent transfer is very likely a lie."
The staff member asked: "Do you have any evidence?"
Liu Fusheng said: "Globally, communication network technology is on the rise, and any industry-leading technology patent can bring unimaginable wealth."
"No company or individual is willing to give away huge wealth, especially American companies that have always dominated the communications and smartphone equipment fields. They are not short of money at all."
"Also, the US government will not allow itself to be rapidly overtaken by other countries in the field of electronic communications."
The embassy staff member groaned and said, "That's true. So, Chairman Chen might have been deceived."
Liu Fusheng said: "This is just my personal judgment. The specific situation still needs more detailed investigation as evidence. I suggest that you report this information to the relevant domestic departments."
"The relevant departments can investigate those people that Chairman Chen had contact with before his departure, especially those who provided him with information about technology transfer, and find out their motives."
The staff member said, "I understand. We will definitely convey your judgment to the domestic authorities... In addition, after our initial communication with the relevant US authorities, we received feedback that they arrested Chairman Chen because he was suspected of commercial fraud and illegal operations, which seriously violated US laws."
Liu Fusheng had an idea in mind, and the embassy had completed its inquiries and started to follow the formal procedures to report back to the country, which would decide what to do next.
The next day, Zhou Zhi called Liu Fusheng to report: "Sir, we conducted a detailed investigation of the senior management of Zhongwei Group and found that the person who provided the information to Chairman Chen was most likely the Foreign Trade Department of the Department of Commerce."
Liu Fusheng was surprised and asked, "You mean, the result obtained after tracing the source was the information provided by the provincial government?"
Zhou Zhi said: "Yes, Zhongwei Group is a leading enterprise in the field of communications, and Chairman Chen Fei is also a well-known entrepreneur in our country. They are unlikely to believe in gossip or some unconfirmed information."
