Chapter 24 Section 24 "Oriental" Puts

The amount of refined oil smuggled in the name of Dongfang Company amounted to more than one million tons. Among the important figures in Lai Changxing's smuggling network listed in the report letter was Cao Xinghai, general manager of Dongfang Company, and clearly pointed out that Lai Changxing used Dongfang Company's bonded warehouse to smuggle refined oil.However, the task force came to Dongfang Company on August 20th, and the results of the day's work were the smallest among the five teams. The company has basically stopped operating, and the investigators found the vice president Zhao Xiaohui and a financial officer. The whereabouts of the financial books from 1997 to 1998 are unknown.Dongfang has two companies with import and export rights, each with its own account books.Preliminary review found that Tong'an Company has a large business volume, but the person in charge is missing.

A 24-hour detention by the customs was imposed on Zhao Xiaohui, the vice president in charge of bonded business.The most important thing Zhao confessed was that the company leased the bonded oil depot of Tong'an, the bonded oil depot of Liuwangdian and the large bonded manual of the two depots to Lai Changxing at a price of 10 million yuan.Since 1995, the company has also done oil business, but the total amount does not exceed 30,000 tons.Who made the 1 million tons of refined oil?Zhao Tui said that only the general manager Cao Xinghai knew, and that the manager of the bonded company was Ma Jinsen, and only Ma knew the specifics.

The salesman of Dongfang Company provided a lot of useful information. Among them, the counterfeit re-export declaration was carried out at Tong’an Customs, and the color picture tubes, crude oil, steel and other items imported by Dongfang Company could not be written off after verification. Lian Huishan, a customs declarer, is an important figure and was detained by the customs. Cao Xinghai was arrested by investigators in Putian. After several important suspects were brought to justice one after another, the problem of Lai Changxing's smuggling in the name of Dongfang was quickly found out.

In 1988, Dongfang Science and Technology Development Company changed its name to Xiamen Dongfang Development Company, owned by the whole people, and Cao Xinghai has always been the legal representative. In 1995, Dongfang Company imported more than 9,000 color picture tubes and more than 10,000 tons of refined oil through bonded procedures. At the end of 1995, the customs urged verification, and more than half of the quantity could not be written off.Li Baomin, the manager of the bonded oil depot, asked Lai Changxing to help with the write-off, and Lai Changxing offered 3 million yuan.Cao Xinghai and the company staff calculated that the unapproved part of the CPT and refined oil would have to pay about 6 million yuan in taxes, and paying Lai Changxing 3 million yuan in verification fees could save 3 million yuan.So Cao made a deal.The first transaction between Cao and Lai was made, and both parties gained.

At the beginning of 1996, Li Baomin set up a bridge, and Cao and Lai invited each other to dinner and became acquainted.In fact, Lai already had his own plan.In March 1996, Xie Dongfeng, director of the Tongan Customs Office, called Cao Xinghai to meet with him in Yuanhua.Lai Changxing and Hou Xiaohu attended the meeting, Dongfang Company Cao brought Ma Jinsen, and Xie was the intermediary, a total of 5 people. Xie Dongfeng seemed to be the host of the meeting, but also like a lobbyist. He opened the scene first, and Yuanhua hoped to cooperate with Dongfang.Yuanhua is very strong and has strong relationships in all aspects.The cooperation between Dongfang and Yuanhua will benefit a lot.

Cao: "How to cooperate?" Lai: "How much profit can your company's Tong'an bonded depot and Liuwangdian bonded oil depot make in a year?" Cao: "The annual income is about 5 million yuan from warehousing fees alone; if you do a little more yourself, the income will be even greater!" Lai: "Yuanhua pays you 10 million yuan a year to rent two warehouses from you, how about it?" Cao's heart skipped a beat.After the leaders of the Eastern Company and the financial calculations, they felt that it was a good deal.Cao Xinghai decided to agree to cooperate with Yuanhua, and called Xie Dongfeng to tell him that he suggested signing a contract. He also told Dongfang Company that Ma Jinsen, the manager of the bonded company, and Guo Zhenqin, the manager of Tong'an Branch, were in charge of the matter.Xie Dongfeng said: Lai Changxing has always kept his word, he is very loyal and does not need to be bound by a contract.After the negotiation, the two large bonded manuals in the two bonded warehouses were returned to Yuanhua for use.

In April and December of 1996, Cao took the initiative to ask for 3.5 million yuan from Lai due to the company's financial shortage, and transferred 2 million yuan to the account of the bonded company, and directly transferred 1.5 million yuan to the account of Dongfang's arrears customers.Before the Spring Festival, Lai Changxing took the initiative to give another 1 million yuan in cash, and Zhao Xiaohui drove it back in person.
