Preface
In 2018, Meng Wanzhou, Huawei's chief financial officer, was arrested on the spot by the Canadian police when she was transiting in Vancouver, Canada, on the grounds that she was "warranted for an arrest issued by the United States".
Meng Wanzhou did not resist forcibly, and chose to believe that the Canadian government would return her innocence, but who would have thought that this arrest would be nearly 3 years and 1,028 days of detention.
And the real murderer who betrayed Meng Wanzhou behind his back was dug deep and also came to the front of the stage, did the other party suffer retribution?
Huawei's successor
Meng Wanzhou believes that everyone is familiar with her, she is the child of Ren Zhengfei and his ex-wife Meng Jun, her mother is the daughter of the head of a province, and her father is the CEO of Huawei.
When she first joined Huawei, Meng Wanzhou only worked as an "administrative secretary", but after three years of training at the grassroots level, Meng Wanzhou entered Huazhong University of Science and Technology to study "financial management".
After graduating with a master's degree, Meng Wanzhou "joined Huawei" for the second time, taking up a financial position, and after 20 years of hard work, Meng Wanzhou finally became the chief financial officer of Huawei from a small finance.
Meng Wanzhou holds the power of life and death in finance, knows the company's capital flow, and is also confident about Huawei's development.
When the United States coveted Huawei technology and launched sanctions against Huawei, Ren Zhengfei was not afraid, and seeing that Lao Tzu couldn't do it, the United States took a crooked path and had a bad idea against Meng Wanzhou.
In 2018, the United States took the so-called evidence and publicly issued an arrest warrant to Meng Wanzhou for "fraud", and through the extradition clause, the Canadian police arrested Meng Wanzhou.
The United States wanted Huawei to be soft, so it borrowed a knife to kill people, and used Canada to detain Meng Wanzhou, and the three-year trial process made Meng Wanzhou a caged bird, wanting to go home but unable to come back.
Although the United States made something out of nothing and put Meng Wanzhou on trumped-up charges, if the United States wants to issue an arrest warrant, it must have a reason, and whoever can provide this reason is the culprit who caused Meng Wanzhou to be arrested.
The reason for the US arrest of Meng Wanzhou is that Meng Wanzhou violated the relevant provisions of the US secondary sanctions and conducted illegal transactions in the US with Iran, the target of US sanctions, and the US side demanded that Meng Wanzhou bear responsibility for the transactions.
Of course, this deal is reasonable and legal, but without this excuse, how can the US coerce Meng Wanzhou to order Ren Zhengfei?
Therefore, in order to convict this crime, the United States has found the financial institution "HSBC", which has served Huawei for decades and has a good understanding of Huawei's various businesses and capital transactions.
If there is such a bank endorsing the US government, their so-called evidence is more convincing.
What did HSBC do to help Meng Wanzhou's arrest? What does the confidential information they provide mean for Meng Wanzhou and Huawei?
HSBC
HSBC has a long history, as early as the end of the Qing Dynasty, he followed the colonization of his old employer, the "British Empire", from the far west to China.
At that time, Britain leased Hong Kong from the Qing government for 99 years and established its own position of influence in Hong Kong, and HSBC followed the same pace of development, first establishing its headquarters in Hong Kong and then establishing branches in China.
HSBC wanted to pan for gold in the domestic market non-stop, and in order to make money, they did everything, not only to fund Yuan Shikai, but also to try to disrupt Sun Yat-sen's Northern Expedition.
Relying on the loan of tens of millions of taels of silver that he lent to the Qing government, he took the customs duties and salt taxes of the Qing court at that time, parasitic on the Qing government to suck blood, and accumulated a lot of wealth.
Later, after the founding of the People's Republic of China, with the fertile soil of reform and opening up, HSBC blossomed all over the country and further thrived.
Huawei's cooperation with HSBC is also because of HSBC's dedicated service to major customers, which has impressed Huawei, and has been friendly and cooperative for more than ten years, without interruption.
But who would have thought that this time Meng Wanzhou was arrested by the United States, it turned out that HSBC was behind the ghost, at that time, an international newspaper revealed that a certain Iranian company has a close relationship with Huawei, and it is likely that the boss behind the scenes is Huawei, and this company is the target of US sanctions, so Huawei was provoked.
The relevant person in charge of HSBC approached Meng Wanzhou, hoping that she could issue a document to prove the relationship between Huawei and the Iranian company, which was this information to prove her innocence, but HSBC turned around and handed it over to the United States.
The U.S. judiciary disregarded the factual basis and turned this self-proof PPT into direct evidence for issuing an arrest warrant, and Meng Wanzhou was arrested in Canada and forced to live in a distant foreign land for 3 years.
Therefore, although it was the United States that framed Meng Wanzhou, HSBC also played a big role in it, leaking confidential customer information first, helping the United States to do evil, and HSBC was nailed to the pillar of shame of "treachery" and was unpopular.
Why did HSBC become an accomplice of the United States, and what retribution did HSBC get after the Meng Wanzhou incident?
judicial use
HSBC and the United States are in the same boat, and they may have hit it off, but more likely it is that the United States has a pigtail holding HSBC in its hand.
HSBC is an international bank with branches in many countries and regions around the world, yet HSBC has used its vast footprint over the years to provide money laundering services to some drug lords in Mexico and Colombia.
Obviously, the Cayman Islands branch of HSBC in Mexico has no employees, but it has 50,000 extra customers out of thin air, and its assets in 2018 are as high as 2.1 billion US dollars, which is ironclad evidence of HSBC's money laundering.
After the U.S. Department of Justice found out, it conducted a detailed investigation of HSBC and sued HSBC after obtaining evidence of its violation. Dozens of pages of evidence made HSBC unable to refute it at all, so it could only obediently admit guilt.
In 2013, HSBC was fined a huge $1.9 billion by the United States, but strangely enough, no leadership was held accountable for it.
Instead, the United States signed an agreement with HSBC not to commit another crime for five years, otherwise the relevant personnel will face imprisonment, which is equivalent to giving the United States a knife to the neck of HSBC.
Meng Wanzhou's arrest and detention were caused by HSBC's choice to betray and betray its major customers in order to protect itself.
Therefore, with the intensification of the Meng Wanzhou incident, HSBC's reputation has taken a sharp turn for the worse, and in China, HSBC has been disqualified as a "US dollar treasury bond underwriter" by the relevant state departments.
Since then, HSBC's business in China has been even more difficult, and its performance has plummeted, and in just one year, HSBC has had to suspend all domestic industries.
After another year, in 2020, HSBC's global profits continued to fall, and finally fell below 65%, but HSBC is still unrepentant, and is still testing the red line of the law, engaging in illegal business in South Korea, the United Kingdom and other places, and was fined heavily.
A bank that helps criminals launder money, also carries out all kinds of illegal business, and sells the company's major customers, the signboard of HSBC has long been rotten.
Affected by the Meng Wanzhou incident, HSBC closed down a number of stores and faced large-scale layoffs, in order to recover the losses, HSBC had to apologize to Meng Wanzhou and give up to $50 million in compensation.
However, money can't buy trust, money can't buy integrity, and no amount of money can buy Meng Wanzhou's 1,028 days in detention.
If you don't die, you won't die, HSBC has come to the point where everyone shouts and beats today, all because of its own doing, good and evil will be rewarded in the end, I believe that HSBC will be punished, and Meng Wanzhou will lead Huawei to develop stronger in the future.
