After Zheng Shuang and Zhang Heng's social accounts were blocked, the news and controversy about the two of them in the internal entertainment came to an end for the time being, and if there were no major events, it is estimated that they would be completely forgotten in a few years.
However, Zheng Shuang's social media is expected to be banned, why is Zhang Heng also banned as a whistleblower?
One of the important reasons is that Zhang Heng is also suspected of violating the law, and there is also a clause in Zheng Shuang's tax problem circular, zhang Heng was dealt with in a separate case.
On October 18, 2021, the tax authorities determined that Zhang Heng was illegal in planning, operating and helping Zheng Shuang evade taxes, and imposed a fine of 32.27 million yuan on him.
For this matter, we can analyze it in depth from three levels:
I. Analysis of the details of the penalty announcement
1. The tax department announced the reasons for punishing Zhang Heng, who planned and operated matters such as "splitting the film remuneration contract" and "covering the establishment of the company" in Zheng Shuang's "Ghost of a Woman", which actually helped Zheng Shuang evade fulfilling his tax obligations.
In an interview with reporters, the tax department used three words for Zhang Heng's role in tax evasion: "planning and organization", "communication and contact", and "specific operation".
To put it bluntly, Zheng Shuang's tax evasion in the "Ghost of a Woman" project was done by Zhang Heng from beginning to end, he was a planner and an executor, and he was also an indirect beneficiary.
Therefore, some netizens boldly speculated that Zheng Shuang's current project found to have tax evasion was only "Qiannu Ghost", and the previous and subsequent projects, whether it was film and television, advertising or variety shows, had no problems in taxation. This project was planned and executed by Zhang Heng from beginning to end, so was this matter deliberately done by Zhang Heng as a "handle"?
It should be said that from the so many detailed information that Zhang Heng privately retained and used to expose and report Zheng Shuang, this speculation is not unreasonable.
2, Zhang Heng is not false, but also a lawbreaker, the tax department as appropriate reduced a part of Zhang Heng's fine, only to impose a fine of 0.75 times the amount of tax evasion, far lower than the top penalty of four to five times zheng shuang.
Some netizens said that Zhang Heng is a whistleblower who should be rewarded, in fact, the tax department did "reward" Zhang Heng in a certain sense, at least to reduce his fine by tens of millions, which is equivalent to "rewarding" Zhang Heng at least ten million in disguise.
Second, who has more to lose?
Zheng Shuang's supplementary taxes and fines totaled nearly 300 million, while Zhang Heng was fined more than 30 million, which seems obvious that Zheng Shuang's losses were greater.
In fact, this is not the case, although zheng shuang's losses seem to be greater in absolute terms, and her acting career has been terminated, and her losses have reached at least hundreds of millions.
But let's not forget one thing, although Zheng Shuang's loss amount is relatively large, but her debut is very early in the coffee position is higher and the salary is also higher, with her previous income and family background, she should have fully the strength to bear these losses and fines.
To put it bluntly, Zheng Shuang can not only afford to lose money but also punish. Although there is no announcement that Zheng Shuang has paid the fine, she has promised to pay the fine within the specified time for the first time, indicating that she still has this capital strength.
Zhang Heng, on the other hand, faces at least triple debts.
1. Shanghai Whale Obedient Company owed employee wages and compensation, Zhang Heng was identified by the court as "Lao Lai" because of this matter.
2. Zheng Shuang has won the private lending lawsuit in the second instance, and Zhang Heng wants to repay Zheng Shuang's loan and interest totaling more than 20 million.
3. Then there is the fine of more than 30 million yuan imposed on Zhang Heng by the tax department this time.
Based on Zhang Heng's family foundation (it is said that he has sold the domestic real estate), it is estimated that the arrears of employee wages can still be repaid, and Zheng Shuang's arrears and the fines of the tax department add up to an astronomical amount for him.
To put it bluntly, Zhang Heng simply could not come up with so many funds to make up for the hole, so his loss was even greater.
To use a simple analogy, the penalty of two horses each with a small target estimates that they are not even bothering to blink their eyelids, and the penalty of 10 million yuan is not enough, who do you say has a big loss?
Therefore, some netizens said that Zhang Heng was "killing eight hundred enemies and losing two thousand", which is not unreasonable.
Third, the future direction of Zheng Shuang and Zhang Heng
Zheng Shuang's tax problems have been hammered, social accounts have been blocked, the end of her acting career, if she still wants to eat the bowl of rice in the entertainment industry in the future, of course, she can also use the network resources accumulated earlier to do behind-the-scenes work. Or, she can work in other industries, after all, she is still relatively young, and it is not too difficult to change careers.
Of course, at least for now, Zheng Shuang's first job is to take care of his two children and continue to fight for custody.
Zhang Heng's social account in China was blocked, and the hundreds of thousands of fans he accumulated disappeared overnight, and he certainly could not rely on fans and fame to make money in China because of the law due to tax problems.
The most important thing is that Zhang Heng's triple debts are likely to be repaid or unwilling to repay, especially the fine of more than 30 million yuan is even more difficult for him to ascend to the sky, which also means that he will most likely choose to remain in the United States. Otherwise, if he fails to pay the fine beyond the prescribed period, he is likely to be imprisoned once he sets foot on our territory.
Therefore, Zhang Heng may not return to China for a long time after that, and can only stay in the United States to earn a living and become a "fugitive".
In addition, even if he is stranded in the United States to make a living, because Zhang Heng and Zheng Shuang's affairs in the Chinese circles in the United States have also been hyped up, he can not move to secretly record, plan tax evasion and expose the privacy of children and children's mothers have also seriously damaged his reputation, whether he can find a suitable job in the United States is still unknown.
If he didn't get it right, Zhang Heng finally had to cling to his two children and ask Zheng Shuang for high maintenance through the two children as a basis for living a life.
In the end, if you push the time back to the time when Zhang Heng and Zheng Shuanggang determined the relationship, I believe that the vast majority of people will be very envious of Zhang Heng.
Zheng Shuang was still very young at the time, and her appearance and figure were also excellent, even if she was an ordinary girl, zhang Heng's girlfriend was more than enough.
Moreover, Zheng Shuang was a top female star in China at that time, with a earning power of hundreds of millions, and more importantly, she trusted Zhang Heng very much, openly took him to the variety show, for the sake of her boyfriend to scare fans, take tens of millions of dollars to support Zhang Heng to open a company... What is even more incredible is that she is not very old, and she is actually willing to marry Zhang Heng and have children.
Relatively speaking, in this relationship, Zheng Shuang is undoubtedly the person who pays the most and is the most sincere. From a general worldly point of view, Zhang Heng can find a girlfriend like Zheng Shuang, which is almost equivalent to a blessing cultivated in eight lifetimes for him.
Unfortunately, to use a perhaps inappropriate analogy, Zhang Heng is like a lucky person who suddenly won the jackpot and does not know how to cherish it, and finally squanders it and owes a bunch of debts.
Happiness came too quickly like a tornado, swept away the mind and swept away everything, and the white expanse of the earth was really clean.
