Goldfinger prototype story

The movie "Goldfinger" is adapted from the murder of Jian Ning, one of the top ten mysterious cases in Hong Kong.

The Jia Ning murder case is a famous case that occurred in the 1980s. The case involves huge sums of money and the litigation costs are also quite high. On July 18, 1983, the Malaysian financial assistant manager of Yue Man was strangled to death at the Regent Hotel in Hong Kong, and his body was dumped in a banana forest near Tai Po Market Station in the New Territories. Although Ibarahi was an assistant manager, some reports and books suggested that he was an auditor who came to Hong Kong to investigate Jiani's accounts.

The police arrested a Malaysian Chinese named Mai Fuxiang. He claimed that Chen Songqing was the instigator of the murder, but Chen Songqing's lawyer denied it. Jianing Group has risen rapidly in just a few years and has a wide range of businesses, including restaurants, travel agencies and taxi companies. However, there were huge liabilities behind it. The defendant used shell companies to arrange employees to serve as directors, bribed Yumin's financial executives, and obtained huge loans. After entering the 1980s, Jianing Group fell into debt difficulties and was eventually liquidated, causing heavy losses to shareholders.

With the efforts of ICAC officers, the key players in the Jianing case finally pleaded guilty to two counts of conspiracy to defraud and were sentenced to three years in prison. Three other defendants also pleaded guilty and were sentenced to prison. This case involved a huge amount of money and was the most complex commercial fraud and corruption case in Hong Kong's history. The court has made multiple judgments on the Jianing Group case, and Chen Songqing has also appealed many times. The dust finally settled in 1994. Chen Songqing was sentenced to three years in prison, and "Legal Commissioner" Hu Lida was sentenced to eight years in prison.
