Qin Suisui stood up and looked towards Shenglun International.
"We have a few questions for the defendant, Philip, the person in charge of Shenglun International!"
Phil sat in his seat, chin slightly raised, his eyes filled with disdain.
"Mr. Phil, has your wife, Ms. Kate, returned to Western New Zealand recently?"
Phil narrowed his eyes and looked in the direction of the judge: "Your Honor, Attorney Sheffield's question seems irrelevant to this case, and I can refuse to answer it."
The presiding judge looked at Qin Suisui: "Plaintiff's lawyer, please do not ask questions that are not related to this case."
"Your Honor, this question is crucial to the case. Please allow me to ask the defendant a new question."
The presiding judge nodded and looked in Philip's direction.
"Please answer the questions from the plaintiff's lawyer."
Qin Suisui added another sentence to this question.
"Mr. Phil, your wife, Ms. Kate, suddenly purchased shares of Huating Power International issued in M in September 2016, and sold them all in November of the same year. On the third day after the sale, Huating Power International's stock entered a period of volatile adjustment. In less than three months, this transaction made Ms. Kate a total profit of 1.35 million M yuan."
"Prior to this, your wife, Ms. Kate, had returned to Western New Zealand, where she and you met with a senior executive of Huating Power."
Upon hearing this, not only did Philip's expression change drastically, but Zhang Qian, sitting in the plaintiff's seat, turned deathly pale.
Phil adjusted his breathing, and his lips twitched stiffly.
"I'm sorry, I don't remember this."
"Yeah?"
Qin Suisui looked at Yue Hongxin.
Yue Hongxin immediately took the evidence and walked toward the presiding judge.
"Your Honor, this is the evidence we have submitted."
The evidence consisted of a surveillance video and several photos, including the name of the hotel where the people stayed.
"This also includes accounts that Ms. Kate transferred funds to through her relatives' accounts, which were controlled and benefited from by senior staff members of Huating International and his relatives."
After Qin Suisui finished speaking with a smile, she leaned towards Zhang Qian and said softly.
"Director Zhang, you only have one chance to be a witness for the plaintiff. Your actions now will determine your future position. You should know that in the past five years, you have handled 23.2 billion yuan worth of projects, and the 1.2 billion yuan profit you made is traceable. I hope you can choose the right side at this critical moment."
After she finished speaking, she ignored the fear in the other person's eyes and continued to look at Phil.
The reason she presented evidence of Zhang Qian's involvement in court was to catch him off guard.
This left him no time to prepare and no chance to retaliate, since, according to her investigation report, the opposing family was quite powerful in Huating.
Destroying evidence and misrepresenting facts are common occurrences, and Qin Suisui does not want these things to delay the litigation process in her case.
She pushed several documents on the table toward Zhang Qian.
The document contains detailed records.
The above-mentioned Philip of Shenglun International obtained data and information on Malaysian government projects through a third party by leveraging Zhang Qian's connections at Huating Power International.
This data directly led to Huating Power International's passive position in Malaysian government projects, and its cooperation with Shenglun International changed from an initial dominant and passive relationship to a subordinate one.
This subordinate relationship directly resulted in Huating Power International's funds for its Malaysian project being delayed, leading to a large amount of bad debt provisions.
Zhang Qian looked at the documents that Attorney Qin pushed over, broke out in a cold sweat, and felt a suffocating pain in his chest.
Dong Shu also noticed his unusual behavior and leaned over to ask.
"Director Zhang, are you feeling unwell?"
"No, no!"
Zhang Qian took out a tissue to wipe his forehead, various consequences flashing through his mind, none of which he could accept.
For the time being, it seems he only has one path to take.
He looked in Qin Suisui's direction, his face cold and stiff, and said, "What do you want to do?"
"Director Zhang, please follow my instructions later."
Qin Suisui nodded in satisfaction.
She stood up and looked at the presiding judge.
"Your Honor, I have one more piece of evidence to submit."
Seeing the presiding judge nod, Qin Suisui asked Yue Hongxin to hand over the evidence she had prepared yesterday.
"Your Honor, this is Carl, a third-party employee of Shenglun International. He is the brother-in-law of Mr. Philip of Shenglun International. From 2015 to 2019, he was employed by several Shenglun subsidiaries, including Shenglun Malaysia, and acted as an agent and employee of Shenglun in the following transactions and activities."
“From approximately April 2015 to May 2016, his position was MD of Sheng Lun Malaysia, ... During that time, his work included acquiring and executing business for Sheng Lun. During this period, a total of 5.1 million USD was transferred through his account to Mr. Zhang, a senior employee of Sheng Lun International, in New Zealand.
From the moment he heard the name Carl, Phil's eyes widened in disbelief. He couldn't believe how the other party had obtained such detailed information.
Seeing so much detailed evidence, he was filled with terror. He knew he was finished, completely finished. Even if he couldn't be convicted in Z country, given the global influence of the Law Offices of R.T., Sheffield would definitely hold him accountable and file additional charges against him in F country or M country.
Clearly, they went through several procedures in their transactions with Shenglun International, and even concealed Zhang Qian's involvement.
Why would the information be leaked? Thinking of the possibility, he looked at Zhang Qian with resentment. Only Zhang Qian could have leaked the information.
Thinking of his impending doom, he wished he could devour Zhang Qian alive, and didn't think about anything else at that moment.
They began to frankly discuss their dealings with Zhang Qian in the Malaysian project.
Zhang Qian of Huating Power's International Affairs Department conspired with Karl, an agent of Shenglun International, to bribe officials with a total amount of RMB 1.2 billion, of which RMB 16 million was paid through Karl's account.
Carl and others obtained the proceeds from Shenglun International's M bonds and the benefits from Malaysian government projects in advance. They transferred the funds to New Zealand through five shell company accounts via wire transfer on multiple occasions. This included transferring the funds to the account of a luxury goods merchant in New Zealand to pay for jewelry customized for Zhang Qian's wife.
As Phil went on, Bill became increasingly furious.
"Philip, what nonsense are you talking about? Are you crazy?"
Bill wasn't heavily involved in the Malaysian project, so he wasn't familiar with the operations. However, he knew that if the leak occurred in Huating, Philip would face imprisonment upon returning home, and he himself would also be punished accordingly.
