Chapter 146 Financial Analysis
"Furuta-san!"
"Hi!"
"Here are the relevant information about the operation of Plaza Win Club that I have compiled in the past few days. Please take a look..."
"What the hell! It was originally our job, but I didn't expect that it was all passed on to Miss Daodaoji. I'm really ashamed! However, I really didn't expect that you, senior, actually know the professionals from the General Affairs Department!"
Daidoji Miho is a professional in charge of accounting affairs within the General Affairs Department. Although he only works in a technical position, because he comes from an elite bureaucrat, he is already a member of the police department at a young age.
However, although the other party is a police officer, he has some unexplained relatives with Mr. Doihara. This time, the familiar investigation routine has reached a deadlock. Doihara's first thought is that this Daidaiji police officer is
.
"Then let me explain it to you simply! According to public information, Plaza Win's main business is horse racing event promotion, and it is one of the cooperative enterprises designated by the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries' horse racing department. The so-called horse racing event promotion refers to the promotion of horse racing events.
Japanese horse racing events have been promoted to foreign gambling industries, and
Launch a series of betting projects for Japanese horse racing events. Speaking of which, this is a good deal with huge profits! The business scope covers South Korea, Southeast Asia and even some European and American countries, and even includes some cruise ships on the high seas. It not only promotes Japanese horse racing brands
Going overseas can also bring in a lot of foreign exchange..."
"It's amazing. I didn't expect foreigners to pay attention to Japanese horse racing?"
"This is nothing. After all, there are only a few successful large-scale horse racing events in the world, so it is not unusual to be promoted to some countries and regions that allow gambling. Moreover, I also found that over the years, Plaza Win's business has
The revenue and profits have also increased year after year. Including cooperation fees and taxes paid to the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries have increased significantly. From this point of view, Plaza Win’s operating conditions seem to be no problem.”
“So, there is no problem with Plaza Win’s operating conditions?”
"It seems so, but...it has to be seen in light of trends. Please see...this is the revenue and operating data of the international gaming industry in the past two years, and this is the cooperation fee and tax data paid by Plaza Win!
"
After Daodaoji Police Department added, they used a computer to generate two trend charts, and then compared them and projected them on the projector in the conference room.
On one side, the curve marking the operating status of the international gaming industry shows a gentle downward trend, while on the other side, the taxes and fees that can indirectly represent the operating status of Plaza Win rise sharply, showing an upward trend against the trend.
.
"This is..."
"I searched online and found that Plaza Win has not opened up new markets in the past two years, so how did this company achieve growth despite the general downturn in the industry? This is what I find strange!"
"Are you saying that Plaza Win is trying to whitewash its performance?"
"No, Plaza Win is not a listed company, so there is no need for him to do this. I guess it may be another purpose!"
"Another purpose? What is that?"
"I guess it's money laundering!"
"Money laundering?"
"Yes, use horse racing to transfer funds to Japan, and then find ways to turn them into legal income! Plaza Win is probably a tool of an international money laundering group. Although I say there is no evidence, the operation of Plaza Win is really too bad
It’s so weird that I have to doubt it!”
…
After some careful analysis by Daodaoji, there was indeed something wrong with Plaza Win. However, this company is not a listed company in the first place. If you are not an insider, you cannot fully understand its operating conditions. Secondly, Daodaoji does not have such a
There is evidence that several companies are involved in money laundering, so a more in-depth investigation is out of the question.
However... Daidoji's analysis opened a new door for Ichiro and Doihara's investigation. Because the deceased, Jun Baba, happened to be the head of the promotion department of Plaza Win.
"Senior, do you still remember...the wife and children of the deceased Jun Baba have been living abroad all year round?"
"Oh...I have an impression of this!"
"As an office worker, this must be very stressful! After all, his wife and children are abroad, and he only relies on his work for income! But... is it really okay to just rely on the salary of Minister Win in the Plaza?
"
"You are suspicious..."
"Well, I suspect that it was because of this incident that Takamatsu Ken and Baba Jun were killed. But the only thing we can do now is to investigate Baba Jun's income! So..."
"Don't ask me, I don't know how to investigate other people's financial situation!"
When Doihara saw what Ichiro had said, he couldn't help but deny it in vain.
"Miss Daidoji, do you have any good ideas?"
"This? I only know one thing. If the person you are talking about is really involved in money laundering, no matter how he operates, the money will eventually be transferred to his wife and children. You only need to follow this line of thinking,
We should be able to find evidence of his crime!”
…
After the three of them finished their afternoon meeting, it was almost time to get off work. Because there was other work to do, the Daidaiji Police Department resigned to Ichiro and Doihara and went straight back to the General Affairs Department. Ichiro, on the other hand,
Taking the information compiled by the other party, he silently returned to his seat.
After turning on the computer, Ichiro typed the words Plaza Win on the Internet.
After some searching, the first place on the list was the official website of Plaza Win. Ichiro curiously clicked on the official website and entered the website. Soon he found the names of many overseas cooperative companies in the directory of service countries and regions.
"I really underestimate you, Plaza Win!"
Seeing Ichiro's eagerness to try, Doihara suddenly came over and whispered:
"If that girl from Daodao Temple is really right this time, we will have a hard time. Those money launderers are not easy to mess with!"
"Don't worry, senior, I can still handle this kind of thing!"
"But your Arata? He was the last person Takamatsu Shizuka contacted on the phone! Aren't you afraid that someone will cause trouble for your family?"
"Eh? Arata!"
Suddenly hearing Doihara mention Arata, Ichiro's heart sank.
"It's broken. Last time we were at the racecourse of Takamatsu's family! Did I tell you about the time when Takamatsu Shizuka called Arata?"
"That's what I want to say! Arata may be in danger!"
Just when Doihara kindly reminded Ichiro to be careful, his cell phone suddenly vibrated.
"Woooo..."
"I'm Furuta Ichiro, who are you? Hey... I'll call you in front of Ogikubo Station... Arata... Is he being followed?"
