Chapter 2574

Qian Hongyan, an individual anchor, can apply for cash withdrawal from the platform directly from the platform for the income of live-stream shopping, but this money is pre-tax and needs to be reported by the anchor himself.

But because Qian Hongyan was reluctant to lose a large amount of income, she had never reported taxes.

Now that the tax department has come to the door, she was also panicked, and could only lie: "Comrade, you have also seen the situation in my family. There are indeed two patients paralyzed in bed in my family who need care, and an elderly person who needs to be raised. It is really busy, and I didn't take care of it for a while..."

As she spoke, she had a flash of inspiration and hurriedly added: "You see, I haven't been live-stream shopping for a long time, only about a month or so. Actually, I planned to hurry to report taxes after finishing these few days..."

The staff of the tax department knew that she must be lying, but just as she said, she had only been live-stream shopping for more than a month. If she said she forgot, or didn't have time to report taxes for a while, the tax department had no way to prove that she was deliberately evading taxes.

So, the tax personnel gave her a step: "We have indeed understood your situation. There are indeed some objective factors, so we will not pursue whether there is tax evasion. You only need to declare your personal income tax as soon as possible according to your actual income."

Qian Hongyan asked subconsciously: "What is the tax rate of our personal income tax?"

The tax personnel explained: "Your live-stream shopping belongs to labor remuneration. Labor remuneration belongs to the comprehensive income of citizens. After the final settlement, the tax rate applies to the personal income tax ratio of 3% to 45%. Given that your amount has reached the highest level, it applies to the 45% level."

"Ah?" Qian Hongyan's face turned gray: "45%... this... this is too much..."

The tax personnel said seriously: "Qian Hongyan, paying personal income tax according to law is the obligation of every citizen. And our personal income tax is not high globally. The highest level of personal income tax in Europe and Japan is above 50%, and the United States is also 45%!"

Qian Hongyan wanted to die, but she could still clear the situation at the critical moment, secretly thinking: "Since my income is exposed, paying taxes is definitely indispensable. Those stars and anchors who evade taxes basically have no good end, and I must be the same..."

"Moreover, I am not so bad in luck. After all, I have earned money for a short time. I can use the excuse of forgetting to pay taxes or not having time to pay taxes to find a make-up for myself. Otherwise, the amount of supplementary taxes and fines will only be greater!"

Thinking of this, Qian Hongyan could only nod honestly and say: "I am willing to pay taxes! I am willing to pay taxes! As soon as I go out, I will pay taxes immediately!"

At this time, Qian Hongyan thought in her heart that even if her income was cut off and she paid supplementary income tax, she would still have millions of cash in her hands. Although it was much less than her previous fantasies of billions or tens of billions, having millions in her hands was enough for her to live.

Seeing that her attitude was good, the tax personnel left after giving her some advice.

And Qian Hongyan at this time, as if she had just escaped a disaster, slumped on the interrogation chair and let out a long breath.

Seeing this, the police officer said coldly: "Qian Hongyan, I will say a word from my heart. You should thank that Ma Lan who exposed you. Exposing you today allows you to rein in the precipice, so you won't make a big mistake!"

Qian Hongyan was naturally unconvinced when she heard this. She couldn't help but secretly think: "Ma Lan, that stinking woman, she cut off my financial path, and still wants me to thank her? If I don't find a chance to kill her, I am sorry for myself!"

Seeing her depressed face, the police officer said: "Do you think I am joking with you? Tell you the truth, we have all seen the video of her exposing you. You said you were going to let your husband pretend to have pancreatic cancer, let your son pretend to have uremia, and let your mother-in-law pretend to be blind. The reason why you can only be detained for ten days now is because your husband and son are indeed paralyzed, and we can't define you as fraud. If you really did what you just said, that would be a proper fraud! By then, maybe the court will sentence you to ten years!"

"Ah?!" Qian Hongyan was terrified and said: "Will it be sentenced for ten years?"

The police officer said lightly: "Once it is characterized as fraud, the amount involved will be particularly huge. The starting sentence is ten years, and all illegal income will be confiscated. If your amount increases during this period, you will definitely be sentenced to more than ten years or even longer."

Qian Hongyan was stunned. She didn't expect that just selling misery in live-stream shopping would have such serious consequences, and even touch the Criminal Law.

However, although Ma Lan indirectly helped Qian Hongyan rein in the precipice, Qian Hongyan could not forgive her at all. She still secretly swore in her heart that after she went out, she must find a way to take revenge on Ma Lan.

Meanwhile.

Qian Hongyan's video is still fermenting on the Internet.

More and more people who have bought things in Qian Hongyan's live-stream room saw the video exposing Qian Hongyan, and they were indignant.

They originally bought goods in Qian Hongyan's live-stream room out of sympathy, and the quality of the goods was very poor, which made them very dissatisfied, but out of sympathy for Qian Hongyan, they had not asked for a refund before.

But now, when they saw Qian Hongyan's video, saw Qian Hongyan's ugly face, and even saw Qian Hongyan treat them as fools, they were also very dissatisfied.

So, many people started to find the official, hoping to return the things bought from Qian Hongyan's live-stream room, and also hoped that the platform could severely punish Qian Hongyan.

The operation team of the short-video platform held an emergency meeting at the headquarters in Yan Jing.

In the meeting, executives agreed that the platform must give consumers a satisfactory answer as soon as possible, not only to effectively calm their anger, but also to severely punish Qian Hongyan's behavior, so that other anchors can take it as a warning and not make the same mistakes again.

So, the group's chief lawyer put forward a suggestion. He felt that the platform should make advance compensation for these consumers and return all orders purchased by consumers in Qian Hongyan's live-stream room in full.

The total transaction volume of Qian Hongyan's live-stream room is about 60 million RMB. Such a small amount of money is just a drop in the bucket for the platform.

In addition, the platform should pursue these expenses from Qian Hongyan and those merchants who asked Qian Hongyan to bring goods after advance compensation. If they refuse to bear it, they will sue them. Once they win the lawsuit, they must make compensation. If they still refuse, the platform can also apply to the court for compulsory execution.

In this way, Qian Hongyan must pay back all the income from live-stream shopping. If she refuses to pay, she will be subject to legal sanctions. In this way, it can also greatly deter other live-stream shopping anchors!

Qian Hongyan, who had just been sent to the detention center, was still rejoicing that she could keep half of her income after paying taxes.

But what she didn't know was that every penny she earned would be returned in full!
