Irregular tax payments, fans two lines of tears
Sure enough, the various dramas in the past few days have once again confirmed that male stars rely on "sleeping" and female stars rely on "taxes".
The tax turmoil between Song Zuer and Jiang Yiyi is still fermenting, Jiang Yiyi can be regarded as having fought back and forth with the former company, and Song Zuer has been silent.
They collapsed, starring in several dramas to be broadcast and investors' real money of hundreds of millions have been lost. Song Zuer's "Worry-free Crossing" in the drama to be broadcast, but it cost 50 million just to set up the scene.
Who watched it without saying a word, ordinary workers in the entertainment industry are really miserable!
Walk by Song?
Song Zuer's matter, at the beginning, was the news that some netizens broke the news that she was reported in her real name for splitting the contract many times, using a private collection account to collect money, and evading personal income tax.
After fermenting on the hot search, it was followed up by political and legal institutions.
When Song Zuer did not have any response, the former company Xitian jumped out and issued a statement to clear the relationship: It is not our employees who report, the financial information has been managed by the artist in 2020, and it has nothing to do with me.
Such a somewhat "pouring oil" statement undoubtedly pushed things to a higher climax.
Up to now, various David TV platforms have deleted Song Zuer's related Weibo, and brand endorsements have also taken Song Zuer's materials offline. There is also a suspected "Carefree Crossing" staff broke the news that the project has been stopped, and all work results have become 0 outputs, which is very lost.
And all the 4 companies under Song Zuer's name were cancelled, I don't know if it is also related to this tax turmoil.
Song Zuer's original name was Sun Fanqing
Just when everyone lamented that a rising 95 flower may be martyred, 00 flower is not to be outdone.
Jiang Yiyi was exposed that she had been reported under her real name for not paying personal income tax in accordance with the regulations from 2016 to 2021, involving an amount of 16 million yuan.
Unlike Song Zuer's silence, Jiang Yiyi's studio quickly responded.
I will give you a few key points: First, Jiang Yiyi and the former brokerage company were not happy to hand over because of tax issues, which delayed the time to fully understand tax issues.
Second, during the period of self-correction and self-examination of artists to make up taxes in 2021, Jiang Yiyi's studio has self-declared to complete the tax replenishment payment.
Third, the termination of the contract with the former company was not very smooth, and the former company concealed that Jiang Yiyi's work income was in breach of contract. It can be summed up in one sentence: all the pots of the former company.
Attached is a tax payment certificate, and the previous company did not cooperate with the handover of financial information chat records
As soon as the statement came out, Jiang Yiyi's former company Jiuhe Xizhao also quickly responded in a book.
said that they had warned Jiang Yiyi in 2018 that there was a tax risk, but Jiang Yiyi did not make up the tax according to law. Moreover, Jiang Yiyi deliberately converted labor income into studio income to achieve the purpose of paying less taxes.
After sending this response, the former company immediately deleted the pin number.
This Jiuhe Xizhao Cultural Brokerage Co., Ltd., many girlfriends will feel strange, in fact, it has changed its name and used to be called Meila Jiuhe Cultural Brokerage Co., Ltd.
The actual controlling company behind it was Zhejiang Dongyang Meila Media Co., Ltd., the legal representative of this company was Wang Zhonglei, and the enterprise group belonged to Huayi Brothers.
That is to say, in fact, Jiang Yiyi is an artist under Huayi between 2016 and 2022, and everyone is familiar with Huayi.
However, in the second half of 2021, Huayi sold Meila Jiuhe, and Jiang Yiyi also got back all his financial information at this time.
At present, Jiang Yiyi has opened his own studio, and it is still in existence.
Whether Jiang Yiyi made a mistake himself or was pitted by the former company, it is estimated that it will take a few days.
But what is speechless is that in a short period of time, two little flowers have successively revealed tax evasion, and the cost of illegality in the entertainment industry is so low?
Everybody ≠ right
Everyone knows that stars are high-income groups, and high income corresponds to high taxes, so if there is an artist called Xiaoshuai at this time, the reputation is good, and there are dramas every year.
However, he only thinks about how to earn more, and wants to "evade taxes" through some methods, what will Xiaoshuai do?
1. Yin Yang Contract
Many artists will choose to play tricks in signing contracts, the most common is the yin and yang contract.
For example, a certain ice that everyone knows was exposed to the "Big Bombing" movie using a yin and yang contract, only taking 10 million yuan on the surface, but the remaining 20 million yuan of salary was divided into contracts to return to their own pockets.
The purpose of the split is to avoid triggering the threshold of the higher tax rate. If the 20 million is not split into the contract, then she will have to pay 9 million in taxes. But, in the report, she only paid 2.82 million, that is, 6.18 million yuan.
According to this calculation, the unit price of the contract of a certain ice split must be larger than 17,000, assuming that each contract is 20,000, then 17.18 million (20,000 * 0.8) = 1073 copies.
In order to pay less tax, what can be solved by one contract may be spread out into more than 1,000 contracts.
The operation of amateur Shuang is even more outrageous, with a salary of 160 million, of which a contract of 48 million is signed as a salary, and does not step on the line of the salary limit order of 50 million. The remaining 120 million yuan was privately remitted to its own shell company as capital increase.
After calculation, her salary of 160 million yuan only paid 960,000 taxes.
2. Fictitious income
In addition to playing tricks on contracts, there are also some artists who will use fictitious income to pay less tax.
According to tax regulations, actors and athletes should pay personal income tax, and the tax rate they adapt to is actually the comprehensive income mentioned in the personal income tax law, which is obvious, and the tax rate of stars should be the highest line: 45%.
That is to say, if Xiaoshuai can have a sky-high salary of 100 million, then he should pay 45 million in taxes, and the remaining 55 million is his legal income.
However, some artists convert this personal income into operating income by opening studios. Because the studio is a sole proprietorship, the tax rate is 20% of the income of the enterprise, and the algorithm of personal income is different.
It is reported that from 2019 to 2023, a certain Lun used this way to evade personal income tax of 47.6582 million yuan.
3. Disguised reimbursement
If Xiaoshuai pays taxes according to the real corporate revenue, he may still hide the world, put the income in the company, and then take it out under various names without paying taxes.
For example, in the tax evasion case of Yuan Mouyan, there was a notification that showed that the company paid a lot of consumption expenses unrelated to production and operation to the shareholders themselves, with a total amount of 8.15 million yuan in three years.
According to the tax rate of 20%, Yuan Mouyan's 8.15 million consumer expenses actually need to pay more than 1.6 million yuan.
4. Use the company's capital reserve to launder money
After experiencing the above 3 types, if Xiaoshuai is like an amateur, he may also use the company's capital reserve to launder money.
Capital reserve, understood in a simple concept, is that the extra money from the operation of the enterprise can be put in the company first to resist risks and make up for subsequent losses.
Specific process: First, the shell company held by the shares of Amateur Shuangma, that is, Shanghai Jingyansha Co., Ltd., is used to increase capital.
How to increase the capital? It is the producer as a shareholder to invest in Shanghai Jingyansha Co., Ltd., for example, the original registered amount of this company is 80 million, amateur Shuang's mother accounts for 90%, and the producer first used 8.8888 million to buy 10% of the shares.
There is also 112 million, and then use the capital premium for the purchase of shares (that is, I can account for 10% of the shares with only 8.8888 million, but investors feel that I still have some money to put in this company for reserve, so I added another 112 million). In terms of accounting treatment, it becomes capital reserve, and the money is kept in the company and is not taxed.
Until she was notified in 2021, everyone knew that Amateur Shuang evaded 59 million taxes through this method.
Then again, if Xiaoshuai really operates like this, what awaits him is to follow in the footsteps of amateurs.
After all, these little nine-nine are all tricks in the eyes of tax personnel, just like cheating under the eyes of the invigilator, it is a super conspicuous bag at a glance, even if no one reports it, it will be found out sooner or later.
Sister E's epilogue
Of course, we listed the above, not to teach artists who have a thief's heart but do not know how to operate how to break the law, but to tell everyone in this way that these little Jiujiu look like a tiger in operation, and the actual filling is very fast.
Many people don't understand that celebrities are already a high-income group, why do they have to evade taxes? Because people's desires are infinite, when you can take 100 million, but you have to hand over 45 million, how many artists will happily pay for it? Ta will not ask himself whether I am worth getting so much money, but will swallow all the income sent to me like gluttony.
Greed sometimes makes a person unrecognizable, and tax evasion is a violation of laws and regulations, which is a clear yellow line that whoever touches it should be punished accordingly.
Of course, before I studied these cases, I didn't know that the tax code turned out to be so complicated, and it was too common for artists not to understand it. But really to persuade artists, at the moment of external control, many "reasonable tax avoidance" is actually a pit, once interviewed by the tax bureau, you must strictly check and correct yourself, listen carefully to professional financial advice, and cherish your career.
If you want to grow red, the farther away from this high-risk line, the better.
Today's late-night topic is:
