Chapter 20 chapter 2

In order to win over XX, a major customer who monopolizes China's important energy sources, MG has used all kinds of treasures. Song Yi and Lu Licheng will each make a copy of each proposal, and the best one will be hired.The company is filled with the smell of gunpowder, but it is also full of infinite enthusiasm and creativity.In fact, putting aside all the conflicts of interests, just talking about work, this kind of atmosphere is the environment that most stimulates people's potential.From a certain point of view, this is a time when "heroes emerge in troubled times". As long as you have the ability, you will soon be able to show your talents, and you don't need to follow the steps to survive the year.

Just when everyone was racking their brains and exhausted their efforts in pursuit of perfection, an accident happened suddenly.The headquarters summoned Mike back to New York for a meeting. When Mike came back, his face was ashen, and he called Lu Licheng into the office. He heard that someone heard Mike yelling at him while he was speaking a Beijing movie. It seemed that the old man was out of breath. No one knows what happened. What everyone can see is that Lu Licheng is temporarily on sick leave, and Song Yi is temporarily in charge of all the work. Linda is the chief internal audit director of the company, and an internal audit team has been established. They flew here from the New York headquarters Two auditors assist Linda in her work. Linda summons different people to question individually every day, the company is full of turmoil, and it looks like a storm is about to come, because everyone is in danger because they don't know what happened, and they even reported dozens of extra taxi fares. Everyone began to secretly regret it.

I have a vague outline in my mind, but I'm not sure.Invite the elder sister out for dinner, and ask her insincerely. In this case, there is most likely something wrong.The eldest sister understood what I wanted to do as soon as she heard it, and said with a smile: "Su Man, you don't know how much my consultation fee is for an hour, do you?" I was angry, "You sold me, and I can't afford it. Are you going to help me or not?" "You are your little soldier, why do you meddle in other people's affairs?" "I'm scared! It's not like you don't know that background checks in audit rules are one of the important ways to find red signals. If things get worse, the backgrounds of relevant personnel will have to be checked again. Who knows how big the coverage will be? I'm afraid If I'm caught and found out that I'm fake, I will die a miserable death."

The elder sister had the expression of wanting to slap me again, so I quickly poured her a glass of wine, "I don't expect a specific conclusion, I just hope you can make a rough judgment based on years of experience." The eldest sister took a few sips of wine and said, "You first talk about your judgment." "Small reports have always been encouraged in Western audits of accounting fraud, because this is the most effective method. Whether it is the Enron scandal that triggered changes in US laws, or the collapse of Andersen, it is the tip of the iceberg that emerged from small reports. MG This kind of company is most afraid of trouble, so the internal anonymous whistleblowing system is extremely comprehensive. I suspect that someone wrote an anonymous letter to the headquarters. The content must be detrimental to Lu Licheng. How to find out the content of the anonymous letter. If you don’t know the specific content, you can act casually, not only can’t solve the problem, but will show your flaws. When we do audits, a very common tactic is bluffing. In fact, we don’t necessarily catch anything. , but it can create momentum and make us seem to have noticed something. Once the audited party has a guilty conscience, it will often reveal the real problem. I think Linda is currently using this method. She may have mastered something, but This is not enough to crucify Lu Licheng, so she is waiting for someone's psychological defense to collapse and reveal herself."

The eldest sister shook the wine glass, staring at the ups and downs of the red liquid, with many thoughts in her eyes.I dare not disturb, and wait quietly.When Andersen closed down, I hadn't graduated yet, and my eldest sister was already Andersen's manager.The world's top five accounting firms became four in a blink of an eye. A simple change in a number is a complete change in the trajectory of many people's lives. The eldest sister is probably one of them. The eldest sister drank the remaining red wine in one gulp, "I think the person who wrote the anonymous letter is Linda."

"what?" "Does Lu Licheng appreciate Linda?" "Probably not." "Then why do you think Mike appointed Linda to pursue this matter? Don't tell me that Mike appreciates Linda!" The eldest sister didn't bother to wait for me to think about the result, so she said directly: "I'll tell you frankly, sitting in this position, how many people are there in the whole company, who are the characters, who are likely to touch my own interests, and who are the conspirator. We all know who likes to play tricks, once this incident comes out, Lu Licheng will definitely be able to guess who is the most suspected person, and only need a little more detailed verification to really guess who did it."

I muttered: "How is it possible? They clearly know the principle of audit independence..." "As long as Linda doesn't admit it, who can confirm that she wrote it? Lu Licheng also has his deep meaning in doing so. Like you, Lu Licheng and Mike certainly don't know what the content of the anonymous letter is, and they don't know what the headquarters wants to investigate, so they deliberately pretended I don't know, Mike came forward to appoint Linda to cooperate with the people in the headquarters to investigate. Some of Linda's humble subordinates must be Lu Licheng's cronies. As long as there is any movement of Linda, he can immediately grasp it. Before Linda was in the dark, they were in the open , so he can be tricked by Linda, and now it is easier to deal with him by turning his position upside down."

I said depressedly, "When the water is clear, there will be no fish. In China's general environment, how many people can really clean up? If we really have to check one by one, everyone has problems. If Lu Licheng achieves this position, there will definitely be If the matter is not handled properly, if Linda finds out and then the headquarters pushes the boat along, he will definitely suffer, how can he deal with it? People will deal with him almost the same!" The eldest sister gloated, "That's right! Even you, a good girl, can fabricate your resume. Who knows what secrets are hidden behind each of your colleagues. Take this opportunity, everyone will show it."

I sighed for a long time, and the eldest sister looked amused, "You resign, and I will help you find a position." "It's not that easy. You don't know. People who resign at this moment are the most likely to be noticed, and they will usually be investigated. If my bad things are really revealed, even if you want to help me, you can't explain it to your superiors. There is no room for liars in the financial industry." The eldest sister smiled: "I don't think it's because of the danger of resigning at a subtle moment, but because you know very well in your heart that Linda will not let you go easily. I really appreciate this girl now. Although she is petty, she has the potential to be a hero in her work. How dare you fight with her?" If Lu Licheng challenged her, she wouldn't be afraid to provoke Lu Licheng, did Lu Licheng kill her? She is so stupidly courageous, if she is kicked out by MG later, I will go snare her."

I was dumbfounded and couldn't say anything. The eldest sister gave me a blank look, "I really haven't seen the world!" She was eating with a smile on her face, but I couldn't swallow, holding my head and thinking.Which businesses of investment banks are most prone to problems?Insider transactions?Illegal operation of stocks?Information leakage?I hate that the business I am familiar with is commercial banking. I have never been in contact with investment banking business before, so I didn't have the slightest entry point for a while. The eldest sister cut a small piece of salmon, put it in her mouth, and said with a smile: "Don't complicate things. If Linda is a thousand-year-old demon, Lu Licheng must be a ten-thousand-year old monster. The more prone to problems, Lu Licheng It must be that the more he will not leave people with a clue, otherwise he would have been eliminated by natural selection and the survival of the fittest, and he can still wait for Linda to jump? This time it must be a small detail that Lu Licheng didn't care about at all, maybe it's a small matter Yes, you can laugh people's teeth off when you say it."

There was a flash of light in my head, as if I saw something from the fog.The eldest sister smiled with satisfaction: "If you want to act quickly! Don't wait for Linda to take advantage of her current special position to find out something. You should know that auditing is always checked to know what an accident is. I am pleasantly surprised, and I will always find that the seemingly important fuse is just the tip of the iceberg." I nodded, and the eldest sister sighed, "Lu Licheng is really lucky, and somehow got the help of an audit expert, and it's free!"
