preface
CCTV made a move, and it really lived up to its reputation!
On March 21, the official released a news report that the news that Internet big V Sima Nan was fined 9 million for suspected tax evasion and tax evasion directly detonated the whole network.
With the continuous fermentation of public opinion, netizens even picked up an incredible scene, it turned out that this Sima Nan's overseas assets were beyond imagination, and the whole platform was already tired.
So, what's going on here?
There are more than 60 million big V Sima Nan on the whole network
There is a saying on the Internet, the character looks glamorous, but it can't stand up to inspection, Sima Nan's matter is quite interesting, he sings high-profile every day on the surface, and plays a number game behind his back.
For example, he is a host, an independent scholar, a social commentator, a senior economist, and a well-known self-media person, with more than 60 million fans on the whole network.
According to the data, Sima Nan was born in 1956, fate was not gentle on him when he was young, and his parents died one after another around the age of 16, so that this teenager tasted the hardships of life prematurely.
With the tempering of life, Sima Nan's unique character traits were shaped, and after experiencing all kinds of situations in the world, he formed a temperament that hated evil.
After entering the workplace, Sima Nan worked his way through the world of journalism until 1985, when he reached an important turning point when he was appointed deputy editor of China Business Daily, which began his career as a critic.
In the public opinion environment at that time, there were not a few voices that dared to comment on current affairs, which made it difficult for Sima Nan to stand out at first, until the early 90s, when he ushered in a major turning point in his career.
At the end of the 20th century, China's reform and opening up policy achieved remarkable results and the economy flourished, but this open social atmosphere also gave some undesirable phenomena room to survive.
In this context, qigong, which originated in the Taoist tradition, gradually deteriorated, and although it was originally a form of health preservation, it was twisted by some people into a miraculous method to cure all diseases.
The trend has spread across the country and has had a particularly far-reaching impact, especially in remote areas, where many people prefer to practice qigong rather than seek formal medical care.
This phenomenon has led to many social problems, including declining production efficiency, increasing family conflicts, and even affecting social order, and many well-known commentators have chosen to remain silent at this critical time.
And Sima Nan seized this opportunity and stood up, holding high the banner of morality on the surface, but in fact he was empty on the inside This is the impression that Sima Nan left on the public.
When he accused others in the name of safeguarding national interests, many viewers who did not know the truth were moved by his righteous and awe-inspiring image.
But those who know Sima Nan's details will only laugh it off, because this self-proclaimed spokesman for justice has many problems in itself.
First of all, let's talk about real estate, in 2010, Sima Nan purchased a home in Fremont, California, in the Barrymore community, Unit E, Fremont, California.
This matter was disclosed as early as 2015, but Sima Nan always avoided talking about it, only talking about topics such as "non-immigrant" and "no green card".
It wasn't until May 2022 that the matter was revealed again, and then Zhai Shanying broke the news that he had naturalized his son in the United States, that he had to vaguely admit that he had bought the so-called "small house".
This is in sharp contrast to Sima Nan's usual fierce anti-American rhetoric, which directly sparked a lot of public dissatisfaction, followed by his recording controversy.
In June 2022, Sima Nan secretly recorded and made public a discussion about Mo Yan with a Shanghai girl, a move that was criticized by many parties, including Hu Xijin.
What's more, at the end of 2022, he recorded Academician He Zuoxiu's conversation without permission and released it out of context, causing the Chinese Academy of Sciences to have to come forward to clarify.
Finally, it is worth mentioning that Sima Nan's many false information, his claim to be the address of No. 8 Nanluoguxiang, Dongcheng District, Beijing is actually the location of the public toilet, his real name is Yu Li, born in a farm in Heilongjiang, "Sima Nan" is the name that was later changed.
For the sake of packaging, Sima Nan even fabricated such an organization as the "Neighborhood Committee Center Theory Group", which showed disrespect for organizational life.
Ironically, this self-proclaimed "patriot", except for the real estate in the United States, other things such as name, address, patriotic remarks, etc., do not stand up to scrutiny.
But what is unexpected is that this big V with more than 50 million on the whole network, even if he has made a lot of money, he was actually fined for tax evasion...
The whole network is broken, and there is already a cat greasy
According to a CCTV News report on March 32, when the State Administration of Taxation vigorously investigated Sima Nan's taxes, it was found that Sima Nan, the original online "big V", was suspected of tax evasion.
After investigation, it turned out that Sima Nan was so good at disguise, and from 2019 to 2023, this benevolent brother played "stealth technique" and hid his income tightly.
The first illegal act occurred at the individual level, Sima Nan used the method of concealing income and false declaration, and underpaid 4.6243 million yuan in taxes and fees.
This amount is not an oversight of a single event, but has been accumulated through systematic means over a period of four years. These taxes and fees mainly include personal income tax and value-added tax.
Judging from the time span and the scale of the amount, it is clear that this is not a simple accounting error, but an organized and premeditated act of tax evasion.
It is particularly worth noting that Sima Nan, as a public figure, has a variety of income sources, including live streaming, speech fees, manuscript fees and other channels, and the complexity of this income structure provides an opportunity for him to evade tax supervision.
The second level of violation is reflected in the business operation level, Sima Nan actually controlled the "Beijing film and television planning center", using illegal means to falsely list costs and expenses, violating the preferential policies formulated by the state to support small and micro enterprises.
In this way, the company underpaid more than 750,000 yuan of enterprise income tax, which not only harmed the national tax interests, but also deviated from the original intention of the policy of supporting the development of small and micro enterprises, which has an obvious illegal nature.
When the news was exposed, netizens fried the pot one after another, and even directly picked up Sima Nan's old bottom, it turned out that all this had already been traced.
According to media reports, Sima Nan has 37.367 million followers on Douyin, 16.42 million followers on Toutiao, 5.174 million on Kuaishou platform, 3.21 million on Weibo, and 18,000 on Xiaohongshu, totaling more than 62 million fans.
It is worth noting that this number does not include platform data that cannot be counted such as video accounts, and its last live broadcast stopped on October 30 last year, and the last video update ended on November 5 last year, and the whole platform has been suspended for four months.
Through the query of enterprise information, it can be seen that the business territory under this person's name was once quite extensive, but only two companies are still in operation.
What is even more unexpected is that according to the archives, between 2010 and 2018, this frequent figure in the public eye and his family quietly bought several mansions in the United States.
According to the records, these real estate properties can be found on the West Coast of the United States, including both high-end residential areas in San Francisco and boutique apartments in the Bay Area, and the total market value of these properties has exceeded $10 million, which is a shocking scale to the outside world.
In particular, tax records for 2021 show that the tax expenses on these U.S. properties alone have reached more than $80,000.
It is ironic that a person who often criticizes the United States is quietly paying such a huge amount of taxes to the United States, and is doing tax evasion in our country.
may also really confirm that sentence, Sima Nan except for the real estate in the United States is real, maybe everything else is fake........
