1929 I am a chaebol in the United States

"Boss, I just received a big news! Rem Company was closed down by the government today!" Eric rushed into Lu Chen's office like a gust of wind, his face full of excitement. He didn't even have time to knock on the door, and directly blocked Lu Chen who was about to get up.

After hearing the news, Lu Chen froze instantly as if struck by lightning. He then suddenly jumped up from his seat, eyes widened in disbelief, and asked anxiously: "Eric, what did you just say? Say it again!"

Eric nodded vigorously, took a deep breath, calmed down his excitement, and then said, "Boss, it's absolutely true! This morning, the police station suddenly issued a task to our company, requiring us to send several employees to accompany the city government staff to handle the affairs. After those colleagues completed the task and came back, they immediately revealed to me the purpose of their action - to seal up the Rem Company!"

After receiving such a definite answer, Lu Chen's joy was like a volcanic eruption that could no longer be suppressed. He couldn't help but wave his fist and shouted excitedly: "Haha, God is really helping me!" After calming down a little, he turned to look at Eric, with an unconcealable smile on his face, and said: "Well, well done, Eric! This incident has brought us a great opportunity. Next..."

After Eric turned and left, Lu Chen quickly picked up the telephone receiver on the table, dialed a number without hesitation, and then waited quietly for the other party to answer.

A moment later, a soft and sweet female voice came from the other end of the phone: "Hello, this is the New York City Mayor's Office. How can I help you?"

Lu Chen took a deep breath and replied calmly, "Hello, I'm Lu Chen from the Lu Group. Please help me connect with the mayor."

After hearing Lu Chen introduce himself, the woman's tone became more respectful: "It turns out to be Mr. Lu. Please wait a moment. I will notify the mayor right away."

Not long after, a deep and attractive voice came from the phone: "Haha, Brother Lu Chen, it's been a long time since I received a call from you! I wonder what you are calling for this time?"

Lu Chen smiled slightly and asked directly, "Mr. Mayor, I heard that you have recently sealed up Rem Company. Is that true?"

The mayor was obviously a little surprised that Lu Chen learned the news so quickly, but he still admitted frankly: "Yes, Lu Chen, you are really well-informed. It is indeed as you said, we just took action today. But...you suddenly mentioned this matter, do you have some special ideas about this Rem company?"

Lu Chen did not hide his intentions and responded frankly: "To be honest with you, Mr. Mayor, I have already acquired about 20% to 30% of the company's shares through various channels. So, when I called this time, I specifically wanted to ask you for help..."

Lu Chen told the mayor about his intention to acquire Rem, and then asked the mayor to help communicate with the court to ask the court not to auction Rem, but to sell it directly to him.

The mayor was very considerate of Lu Chen and agreed directly. He also agreed with Lu Chen to go to the court to visit the presiding judge.

After a week of using his connections, Lu Chen finally got Rem Company from the court.

When Lu Chen came out of the court holding the operating documents and ownership documents of Rem Company, his face was full of smiles.

Fernande had a different feeling from Lu Chen. Because the incident was so serious, the high-ranking members of the Blood Gang, such as Gnandi, were arrested by the government. The Blood Gang was leaderless for a while. Many of the Blood Gang's industries were also shut down.

In fact, Fernande didn't care about the Blood Gang at all before. The Washington family used to have many industries in real estate, mining, and investment. Compared with these, the Blood Gang's income was insignificant. But the financial crisis, coupled with the Great Depression, dealt a severe blow to these industries. They turned from profitable to loss-making.

As a result, the Blood Gang's income became the only profitable industry of the Washington family. Now that the only income was about to be cut off, how could Fernande sit still?

He immediately contacted his old friends and began to lobby Franklin to stop attacking the Blood Gang.

Just when Fernand was busy trying to build relationships, someone reported to Fernand that the government had sold Rem to Lu Chen at a low price. Fernand was almost fainted from anger.

Rem Company is their important money laundering company. Without Rem Company's help in money laundering, they would not be able to use their gray income to support other companies.

"Why is Lu Chen everywhere?"

Fernande angrily snapped the golden nanmu cane in his hand. But he soon calmed down. Since Rem Company has fallen into Lu Chen's hands, he certainly can't take it back. So the top priority now is to find a new way to launder money. Only in this way can the gray income of his family flow into the group normally.

Thinking of this, he immediately began to look for connections and contact new ways of money laundering.
