Chapter 61 Bidding Collusion

Everyone present was paying attention to the actions of the two young lawyers on the scene. The last scene where they complained that more than half of the projects in the High-tech Park needed to be retendered still left a very deep impression on everyone.

The officials of the city hall are very concerned about what kind of tricks the other side will try. Since the last case hearing, these officials of the city hall have also held internal meetings to study the bidding files of the high-tech industrial park project. In addition to the previous Kitahara

Apart from the problems pointed out, they could not find any other mistakes or omissions that could be caught by the other party.

At this point, the Shinjuku City Hall has no way out.

Even if one or two of the requests are approved by the Tokyo Metropolitan Government Finance Office, the City Hall will lose face.

There are only two young college graduates on the opposite side, what else can they do?

Just two people can't shake a tree like a worm.

Kitahara stood up slowly, with the same expression on his face as before, with a bit of cynicism. In the first two case trials, most of the cases were started by the female lawyer. When the female lawyer could not cope with Hamano, the female lawyer opened the case.

The male lawyer came to the rescue. Now, Beiyuan stood up on his own initiative, and everyone present couldn't help but stare at him.

Kitahara looked at the audience present and said: "Today, on behalf of the parties involved, I am accusing collusion in bidding in the Shinjuku District High-tech Industrial Park project. Many unofficial suppliers colluded inside and outside. They will accompany the project today and will accompany the bid tomorrow.

that

Project. You win today’s project, and I win tomorrow’s project, taking turns to win the bid. All parties collude with each other and work together! The agent applies to the Tokyo Metropolitan Government Department of Finance in accordance with the law to order the projects to re-bid, and those who collude in the bidding will be punished!

"

【Accompanying Standard】

[The so-called accompanying bid means that the tenderer has actually pre-determined the winning bidder. In order to meet the formal requirements of the bidding, the winning bidder will bring in other companies to bid together. These companies that serve as foils are the accompanying bidders]

Hearing the lawyer's accusation of collusive bidding, the city hall officials present could not help but break into a cold sweat. The reason is very simple. Collusive bidding is not a simple administrative violation, but may be suspected of crime. For large-scale municipal projects,

In other words, if the supply price deviates slightly from the market price, it may meet the standard of crime.

Hamano couldn't believe it when he heard that Kitahara was actually accusing bid collusion.

Bidding collusion is indeed illegal.

But how to obtain evidence for something like this that happened in private?

Hamano has also handled cases of collusive bidding. Generally speaking, cases of colluding bidding may occur because insiders share the spoils unevenly and are then anonymously reported by insiders. This is usually how the case occurs. However, these two cases

Is it possible for a young man to collect such evidence?!

"Please show your evidence!!" Hamano shouted back, "Lawyer Kitahara, I hope you will pay attention to the fact that our city hall also has a reputation. It is not something you can slander just by making random accusations. If you continue to talk nonsense, our city hall will have a reputation.

The agency will hold you accountable!"

Beihara listened to the public lawyer's words and sneered.

This sneer sounded extremely clear in the conference room.

It was as if he was mocking Hamano and the city hall officials present in person.

It's like feeling sorry for their intelligence.

"Be respectful of your attitude!" Hamano didn't believe that Kitahara could produce conclusive evidence of collusion in bidding, "Bring out your evidence! Bring it out!"

The corners of Kitahara's mouth raised slightly, and he took out a stack of materials in his hand, "The bidding project for the garden construction of super high-rise buildings in the High-tech Industrial Park project, the winning supplier is Hongye Co., Ltd. The president of the company is Mr. Kazuki Murata. In

In this project, the second-ranked candidate supplier is Gaosheng Co., Ltd. The president of this company is Ms. Takenaka Manami."

Afterwards, Kitahara took out a certificate. On it were vaguely visible Chinese characters for proof of household registration. People present did not understand what the male lawyer wanted to do. The next second, Kitahara's voice sounded:

"The household registration information was obtained from the Tokyo Johto Ward City Hall through an attorney. Murata, the president of Hongye Co., Ltd., and Takenaka, the president of Gaosheng Co., Ltd., are husband and wife. The actual controllers of the two companies have a spouse relationship and there is concerted action.

In the above-mentioned bidding project, based on the special relationship between the actual controllers of each other, the two clubs can actually share bidding documents and jointly formulate bidding price strategies. In this case, it should be determined that there is collusion in bidding.

Major illegal act!”

As soon as Beiyuan's words came out, everyone was shocked.

Especially the city hall officials present. They did not expect that this male lawyer would dig so deeply into the high-tech industrial park project that even they did not know that such a thing existed.

Kitahara's accusation once again exposed a ridiculous thing.

The couple each opened a company.

Blatantly participate in bidding for the same project.

There is no longer any fear or worry.

It’s gotten to the point where you don’t even need to pretend.

"Don't you need evidence, Lawyer Hamano?" Kitahara showed a cautious smile, like a bloodthirsty monster appearing in this conference room, pressing forward step by step, "Is that enough now?"

Hamano frowned. He could not have imagined that the Shinjuku City Hall would actually make such a low-level mistake. Even if it was fraud, two people who were apparently married could hide behind their backs and manipulate the company.

Isn't it possible?! You have to use the name of president, for fear that others will not know the relationship between your two families.

Now, it's really a big trouble.

The public lawyer did not expect that the other party would launch such a ferocious attack at the beginning of the day.

At this time, even Hamano was not sure how much more things the city hall was hiding, and he did not tell himself whether the other party might be hiding more killer moves.

However, he had to accept the move in front of him.

"Lawyer Kitahara, you still have no evidence!" Hamano stood up and retorted loudly: "Do you have a communication record between two people about colluding in bidding?! Do you have evidence of how two people colluded to produce bidding documents?

You are just making speculation based on the fact that two people are husband and wife! This is not evidence! It is speculation!!"

"The husband and wife are a community of interests." Kitahara said, "The property of the husband and wife is shared and controlled jointly. The income of Hongye Co., Ltd. is the common property of the spouses, and Gaosheng Co., Ltd. is also the common property. This is not a question of whether there is a record of collusion and communication.
