Chinanews client, Beijing, December 20th (Reporter Li Jinlei) Following "Sydney", Wei Ya (real name: Huang Wei) was also fined for tax evasion after carrying goods on live broadcast. The news was announced, which made people feel awkward. Shock.
According to investigations, between 2019 and 2020, Wei Ya evaded 643 million yuan in taxes by concealing personal income, fictitious business conversion to false declarations of the nature of income, etc., and underpaid taxes by 60 million yuan.
The Inspection Bureau of the Hangzhou Municipal Taxation Bureau imposed a fine of 1.341 billion yuan on Wei Ya's recovery of taxes, additional late fees and fines.
Wei Ya was punished and released a triple signal.
First, huge fines show tax fairness
People were shocked at the huge amount of tax evasion Weiya evaded, and at the arrogant boldness of the head network anchor to make such arrogant profits but ignoring the law.
Earning so much, but doing everything possible to evade taxes, there is a serious lack of respect for the law and a serious lack of responsibility to society.
The case of Wei Ya's tax evasion can be described as "a violation of the law, unforgettable for a lifetime".
The severity of the penalties fully demonstrates the determination of the tax authorities to crack down on all types of tax-related illegal and criminal acts, demonstrates the fairness of taxation, and has a far-reaching impact.
Today, Wei Ya has been punished and once again issued a strong warning to the society: paying taxes in accordance with the law is the obligation of every citizen, and everyone is equal before the law. Whether it is a celebrity or an Internet celebrity, if they touch the bottom line of the law, they cannot escape the severe punishment of the law.
Honesty and law-abiding are the basics of life.
No matter who you are, no matter how hot you are, no matter how popular you are, you can't get lost in money, and you can't cross the red line of the law by luck!
Crossing the line will be investigated and punished.
The second is to prevent webcasting from becoming a tax blind spot
Since the beginning of this year, the taxation department has taken frequent actions. Well-known Internet anchors such as Wei Ya, Sydney, and Lin Shanshan have received huge fines. These people have paid a heavy price for their tax evasion.
The current live broadcast economy is in full swing, and the top web anchors are making a lot of money. They should have taken the lead in abiding by the law, paying taxes with integrity, and playing an exemplary role in the industry, but Wei Ya obviously has not done this. Basic requirements, tax evasion has become an unspoken rule in the webcast industry.
Some Internet anchors fall into the eye of money, only care about making money, and do not want to bear the social responsibilities that match their income. They try every means to set up a sole proprietorship enterprise and make a fictitious business to convert the income of personal wages and salaries and labor services into the operating income of a sole proprietorship. Evasion of personal income tax may be accompanied by "superior" operations proficient in financial knowledge, but in any case, it is hard to escape the eyes of law enforcement agencies.
Taxation departments make full use of taxation big data and other technical means to achieve precise crackdowns on tax evasion.
The taxation department kept making moves and gave the webcasters a serious rule of law lesson. The fast-growing webcast industry will not become an extra-legal place, or a “grey area” and blind spot for taxation.
The taxation department strictly investigates Internet anchors for tax evasion and warns other online anchors not to repeat the same mistakes, to consciously pay taxes in accordance with the law, and to enhance tax law compliance.
The third is to adjust income distribution and promote common prosperity
The country has constantly emphasized the need to promote common prosperity, expand the proportion of middle-income groups, increase the income of low-income groups, rationally regulate high incomes, ban illegal income, and form an olive-shaped distribution structure with a large middle and a small two ends.
Celebrities and Internet anchors belong to high-income groups. Therefore, the taxation department strictly investigates tax evasion and also releases a signal to increase tax supervision of high-income groups, which will help maintain legal dignity, regulate income distribution, and promote social justice and peace. Common prosperity.
