(Keith Griffith) President-elect Joe Biden‘s son Hunter Biden sent Chinese energy tycoon Ye Jianming ‘best wishes from the entire Biden family’ and asked for $10 million ‘quickly,’ an email released by his business partner shows.

The June 18, 2017 email was among the trove of documents newly released by former Biden family confidante Tony Bobulinski, who was copied on the email, the New York Post reported on Wednesday.
Biden sent the email to introduce Ye to Bobulinski, who had been tapped to be the public face of their nebulous new venture SinoHawk Holdings, and request an injection of cash from Ye, then the chairman of CEFC China Energy.
‘Dear Chairman Ye: I hope my letter finds you well. I regret missing you on your last visit to the United States. Please accept the best wishes from the entire Biden family as well as my partners,’ Hunter Biden wrote in a letter attached to the email, which he asked Ye’s assistant Zhao Runlong to translate for the energy boss.
The revelation follows confirmation that the Justice Department is probing Hunter Biden’s taxes and foreign affairs, including Chinese dealings, and amid mounting calls for a special counsel, most recently from Senator Lindsey Graham, a South Carolina Republican.
Chinese energy tycoon Ye Jianming has not been seen since his 2018 arrest in China. In 2017, Hunter Biden appeared to be formulating a venture funded by Ye
‘As you know since our last meeting we have concluded the establishment of SinoHawk Holdings and I look forward to introducing you to Mr. Tony Bobulinski,’ he wrote.
‘He is a very close friend of James Gilliar and the Biden family and joined our team to focus on the execution of things as a partner,’ the letter continued.
‘He will act as the CEO of SinoHawk Holdings. He has invested capital all over the world for some of the world’s wealthiest families,’ he went on, before asking Ye to send a ‘$10 MM USD wire.’
‘I would appreciate if you will send that quickly so we can properly fund and operate Sinohawk. I hope that you are satisfied with the introductions made in Oman and the progress made,’ he went on.

According to documents released by Bobulinski, the $10 million was never sent to SinoHawk, and the company was dissolved in October 2018.
Bobulinski has alleged in a Fox News interview that Hunter Biden set up a side deal with Ye that cut Bobulinski and SinoHawk out of the funding.
Evidence to support that claim emerged over the weekend, in the form of a 2017 email from Hunter Biden’s notorious laptop, released by Rudy Giuliani’s attorney.
That September 20, 2017 email requests copies of keys from an office building manager in Washington DC for Joe and Jill Biden, along with Joe’s brother James Biden and Gongweng Dong, whom Hunter Biden calls an ’emissary’ for ‘my partner’, Ye.
Hunter Biden also requested that a sign be made for his office door reading ‘The Biden Foundation’ and ‘Hudson West (CEFC US).’
Ye’s ’emissary’ Gongwen Dong was given a key to Hunter Biden’s office, an email said
According to a September report on Biden’s overseas business dealings released by Republican senators, a company called Hudson West III opened a line of credit in September 2017.
Credit cards issued against the account were used by Hunter, his uncle James Biden and James’ wife, Sara Biden, to purchase more than $100,000 ‘worth of extravagant items, including airline tickets and multiple items at Apple Inc. stores, pharmacies, hotels and restaurants,’ the report said.
The company has since been dissolved. Hunter Biden’s law firm, Owasco PC, was one of two owners, according to the report. Leaked documents suggest that Ye controlled the other half of Hudson West III.
Ye disappeared in early 2018 after he was taken into custody by Chinese authorities on charges of ‘economic crimes’.
CEFC declared bankruptcy in March of 2020 amid allegations that it used a complex web of shell companies to conduct fraudulent transactions.

Hunter Biden was revealed last week to be under federal investigation for his taxes in a probe kept secret before the election by Attorney General Bill Barr, who submitted his resignation on Monday after President Donald Trump expressed fury.
Hunter Biden confirmed the existence of the investigation last Wednesday, saying he learned about it for the first time the previous day.
‘I take this matter very seriously but I am confident that a professional and objective review of these matters will demonstrate that I handled my affairs legally and appropriately, including with the benefit of professional tax advisors,’ he said in a statement.
Joe Biden told reporters Wednesday that he also is ‘confident’ that his son Hunter Biden did nothing wrong.
Hunter Biden’s foreign business dealings became a point of contention during the election, after the New York Post ran reports about revelations from a discarded laptop.
Biden’s campaign attacked the articles as Russian disinformation and smears at the time.
On Wednesday, Senator Graham (above) said that he ‘absolutely’ supports calls for the appointment of a special counsel to probe Hunter Biden
‘Not one single solitary thing was out of line,’ Joe Biden insisted of his son’s dealings in the second presidential debate. ‘My son has not made money in terms of this thing about, what are you talking about, China.’
It comes amid mounting speculation that Trump will push his new attorney general to appoint a special counsel to investigate Hunter Biden’s dealings.
On Wednesday, Senator Graham said that he ‘absolutely’ supports calls for the appointment of a special counsel to probe Hunter Biden.
‘I’m absolutely calling on a special counsel to look at all things Hunter Biden, to see if he presents a conflict with the Biden administration regarding his business dealings with Ukraine, which is overrun with Russian agents, and the activity he had with the Chinese government,’ Graham told reporters on Capitol Hill.
A special counsel would signal that the scope of the investigation could potentially expand, and the move would insulate the probe from the incoming Biden administration.
