Chapter 398 Press Conference Held! (Please Subscribe and Support!)
“Brother Jiu’s situation on Hong Kong Island is indeed extraordinary. If he wants to do well in the real estate business, he will have to make some arrangements with the Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC).
Rose couldn't help but feel a little worried for Chen Xijiu.
With Brother Lok dead, Chen Xijiu's biggest threat has been eliminated.
The Independent Commission Against Corruption's investigation into Chan Sai-kau never ended; Luk Ching-lim had long considered Chan Sai-kau his adversary.
"Fortunately, we discovered it early, otherwise if the Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC) had cooperated with Li Ze and his group, we would have suffered a lot."
Rose put her arms around Chen Xijiu's neck and listened quietly to his plans, admiring him in her heart.
He could see that Chan Sai-kau was indeed talented, able to gradually build up his power in Hong Kong, which was something that not just anyone could do.
“Brother Lok is dead, and Piggy has become a witness for the prosecution. We have already planted a lot of informants in the Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC), and now we are just waiting for them to walk into our trap.”
As Chen Xijiu spoke, he pulled the roses into his arms. All the plans no longer seemed so daunting to him; these things were of utmost importance to him.
Rose looked at Chen Xijiu and finally felt relieved.
Just then, the phone that Chen Xijiu had placed on the table rang.
He slowly got up and walked to the bedside. He took the phone and saw that it was a call from the police station.
"The director is in a bad situation now. Many staff members have gathered at the police station entrance, complaining and demanding an explanation from the police station regarding Fund A."
Hearing his subordinate's words, Chen Xijiu frowned slightly. It seemed that he would have to deal with the mess that Director William had left him as soon as possible.
"It's alright, I'll be right there!" After saying that, Chen Xijiu gave a few more instructions and gathered all the media together.
An hour later, Chan Sai-gau and Ah Lung arrived at the police station, where a large number of Hong Kong residents had gathered.
"Anyway, the A Fund was originally entrusted to us by the police department for investment. Now all that money has been lost and gone down the drain. We, the people of Hong Kong, must be given an explanation."
“Even though Chief William is dead, the police station is still there. What we need is justice.”
"Chan Sai Kau has become the police station's spokesperson. Now let him come out and give us the public an explanation."
Sitting in the car, Chen Xijiu saw how agitated the Hong Kong people were and sighed.
Fund A initially gave many people a dream, and now that that dream has shattered, their strong emotions are understandable.
Ah Long looked at Chen Xi Jiu and couldn't help but feel worried.
"Master, should we go in through the back door? If we go through the front door, they'll definitely block our way."
Ah Long had just seen a lot of media on high alert, but Chen Xijiu remained calm. He straightened his clothes and opened the car door.
"Only by facing difficulties head-on can we solve problems; backing down is not my style."
As Chen Xijiu spoke, he appeared at the entrance of Police Station 063, where the media had been waiting for a long time.
As soon as they saw Chen Xijiu arrive, they all crowded around him.
The camera focused on Chen Xijiu, along with the microphone, and a series of questions followed.
"Director Chen, you've finally arrived!"
"Director Chen, the police say they have to give us an explanation regarding Fund A. We've been waiting for this for many days."
"Director Chen, please don't look down on us post titles."
Chen Xijiu was completely at ease in front of the media cameras.
At this press conference, Chen Xijiu immediately set an example regarding the A-Fund.

Chen Xijiu summoned all the media to his office and asked them to participate in the investigation of Foundation A.
After all, arranging all these things properly is a challenge for them in itself.
Chen Xijiu sat at the front, facing the media's difficult questions, but he never took it to heart and righteously explained to the media.
The police department's investigation into Foundation A has been coordinated with the Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC), and they are determined to thoroughly investigate the matter.
"Everyone in our police station hates Fund A. The people of Hong Kong have been deceived, and so have our officers; many have invested their savings in it."
When Chen Xijiu faced the camera, he was heartbroken and happened to expose the fraud of Fund A.
He wouldn't care about other people's attitudes towards this matter; as long as it was within his reasonable limits, he would reveal the entire plan without reservation.
There is a way to salvage some dignity for the police department.
The Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC) has never stopped investigating police stations.
The Internal Investigation Bureau was personally established by Chan Sai-kau, partly to maintain peace and security on Hong Kong Island, but Chan Sai-kau would never give up such a great opportunity.
"Our police station will definitely investigate the A Foundation matter thoroughly and give the people of Hong Kong an explanation."
Chen Xijiu slowly stood up, holding a microphone in his hand. Facing the media, he remained calm and made a promise.
"The money you invested will be returned after a dual investigation by the police and the Independent Commission Against Corruption. You will get back exactly what you invested."
The media outlets all began to rush to report on it.
Chan Sai-kau's appearance this time immediately restored his dignity, and many Hong Kong citizens were very satisfied with Chan Sai-kau's press conference.
“When Commissioner William was in power, he oppressed us Hong Kong people in every way, but Chan Sai-kau was different. He was able to help us so much, which is really rare.”
"Chen Xijiu was able to become the police commissioner, which is truly based on his ability. He is much better than Commissioner William."
"Chan Sai-kau truly is the hope for the future of Hong Kong Island."
The media coverage immediately drew responses online, and the enthusiastic promotion by Hong Kong citizens significantly improved Chan Sai-gau's reputation.
At the same time, the Governor of Hong Kong also learned of this matter.
When he received the news, he was impressed by Chen Xijiu. As he expected, Chen Xijiu did indeed have the ability to turn the tide, which made Elena very happy.
"Father, I told you Chen Xijiu is a promising talent. After we explain our plan to him, he will help us solve these big problems."
Elena spoke highly of Chen Xijiu to the Governor of Hong Kong, but the Governor's expression remained unpleasant.
“What Chen Xijiu did about Henry was indeed unethical.”
The Governor of Hong Kong was very vengeful.
Henry's arrival almost made it difficult for him to hold onto his current position as king.
Even though Chen Xijiu had resolved the issue, many people still felt a bit wary of him.
Upon hearing the Governor's words, Elena quickly offered an explanation.
"That's the safest way. Otherwise, if Fund A is successfully listed, the Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC) will definitely not miss this loophole, which will inevitably bring about a greater crisis."
"Chen Xijiu took a huge risk, yet he managed to win with such a high probability of success. Father should thank him."

Elena's words left the Governor of Hong Kong with absolutely no room for argument.
He looked at Elena with complicated emotions, feeling disappointed in her, knowing that his daughter was so devoted to Chen Xijiu.
"If only you didn't have such a fondness for Chan Sai-gau, knowing how quickly his status in Hong Kong has risen."
Even the Governor of Hong Kong suddenly became a little worried.
As the impact grows stronger in the future, he may not be able to handle the situation properly.
"We'll be no match for him in the future, so why waste our time on him?"
Elena laughed it off and didn't take it to heart.
The Governor of Hong Kong already had new plans for Chan Sai Kau, and he absolutely could not allow Chan Sai Kau to get into trouble on Hong Kong Island like this.
After leaving the Governor's room, Elena called 063.
"You did a really good job at today's press conference. It made my father look at you in a new light. You do have some talent."
The Governor's favoritism towards Chan Sai-kau has always been obvious. Upon hearing Elena's words, Chan Sai-kau couldn't help but laugh on the other end of the phone.
"I made thorough preparations before taking this risk, otherwise if anyone were to harm me, it would also implicate the Governor of Hong Kong."
As Chen Xijiu spoke, he extended an invitation to Elena. The two had met last month because of the Governor of Hong Kong.
Chen Xijiu wasted a lot of time trying to get started on his real estate business as quickly as possible.
Now I also want to spend some time with Elena, who is my strongest support.
"If you have time tonight, we can have dinner together. I'll come pick you up."
Elena agreed without hesitation.
While some rejoiced, others grieved. As Chen Xijiu's status in Hong Kong continued to rise, Lu Zhenglian encountered trouble.
He has always regarded Chan Sai-gau as a thorn in his side. Now, seeing that Chan Sai-gau has gained the favor of so many people, and even the Independent Commission Against Corruption is planning to cooperate with Chan Sai-gau.
Li Ze couldn't swallow this insult, so he immediately went to find Lu Zhenglian.
Inside the Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC) office.
Li Ze sat opposite Lu Zhenglian, looking at him with a gloomy and surprised expression, feeling resentful.
"Your Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC) didn't investigate Chan Sai Kau, but now you want to cooperate with him. Don't forget how my cousin died."
“Li Jun dedicated everything to the Independent Commission Against Corruption. If you don’t give him justice, in the end there won’t even be anyone to collect his body.”
