Text messages recently given to the FBI reveal that a Chinese energy company, CEFC, sought to leverage connections to Hunter Biden in order to acquire domestic energy assets within the United States.
The intricate narrative began in late 2015, as CEFC was hoping to leverage the Biden name to provide cover for its ambitious plan, Just the News reports.

The overtures began subtly, as Hunter Biden’s business partner, James Gilliar, began laying the foundation of an influence peddling scheme.
“There will be a deal between one of the most prominent families from US and them (China) constructed by me,” texted Hunter Biden business partner James Gilliar to future partner Tony Bobulinski on Christmas Eve, 2015, just after Hunter had been alerted to CEFC China Energy’s ambitions, and its wealthy CEO Ye Jianming.
“I think this will then be a great addition to their portfolios as it will give them a profile base in NYC, then LA, etc,” Gilliar added in the text, which was obtained by JTN. “For me it’s a no brainer but culturally they are different, but smart so let’s see. … Any entry ticket is small for them. Easier and better demographic than Arabs who are little anti US after trump.”
The messages corroborate testimony this week from former Hunter Biden business associate Devon Archer, who detailed Hunter’s influence peddling scheme by which he and father Joe came as a “brand” package to help foreign clients seeking influence.
CEFC’s plans were unearthed in the exchanges between Hunter Biden and his Chinese counterparts. Plans were made for meetings and dinners – some materializing while others fizzled. One such dud was a Dec. 6, 2015 dinner planned for Hunter and Ye, which was going to be hosted by Serbian businessman Vuc Jeremic, per the emails. Hunter eventually did meet later that month with CEFC Executive Director Jianjun Zang, according to information on Hunter’s infamous laptop.
By March 2016, the narrative had evolved significantly. Memo drafts, masterminded by Hunter Biden’s business associates, Rob Walker and Gilliar, materialized, bearing Hunter Biden’s signature and destined for CEFC. An email trail titled “H to Zang Draft” captured the essence of the strategic pact. This marked a pivotal moment, elevating the Biden family name as a sought-after commodity in the high-stakes world of energy acquisition.
