Chapter 442 Suspected of Serious Tax Issues? !

Oda Shingo's annual income has reached an astonishing level.

It is indeed at the level of nine figures, and it is not just barely reached, but at the top.

The taxes he paid have reached more than 230 million.

"Mr. Oda, it is like this. If calculated according to general income tax..." The tax accountant carefully provided Oda Shingo with a tax calculation form.

"..." Oda Shingo looked at the form carefully and couldn't help but sigh that it was no wonder that so many celebrities had to come up with various methods to avoid taxes.

Similar to China, Japan's personal tax rate can be calculated up to 45%.

Many Japanese people reasonably avoid taxes by establishing joint-stock companies and other methods, because the business income tax rate is lower.

But Oda Shingo is an old hand who has experienced many ups and downs. After carefully reading the report, he also pointed out some small details to the joint-stock company.

"Here, here, and here, let's calculate it again."

"Hey!"

Oda Shingo looked at the figure of more than 230 million yen he had to pay, and of course he felt pain in his heart, but he also sighed:

It's not as much as the 600 million yen of Akira Toriyama. It seems that my road to becoming the king of the comics industry is still very long...

Oda Shingo solemnly told the tax accountant: "When it comes to paying taxes, you can't be careless. I don't ask for any tax avoidance methods, and you don't need to save me money."

He knows too many celebrities who have fallen because of tax problems.

Although real money is important, avoiding risks is more important. After experiencing the previous life, Oda Shingo, wealth is just a number in his eyes.

Taxes are the obligations of every citizen, and he has no intention of discounting them at all.

The tax accountant was quite surprised.

If other new celebrities saw the 45% tax amount, they would stamp their feet and yell.

I have never seen such a newcomer who insists on paying taxes. I thought that arranging an accounting firm to handle taxes would be a reasonable way to avoid taxes, but there was no desire at all.

As expected of the big devil in the comics world, it's really hard to guess! The tax accountant admired him.

"Hi! Mr. Oda, please rest assured." The tax accountant made up his mind to clear all tax worries for such an excellent client.

After that, Oda Shingo spent a day to check his tax matters at the office, and only signed the annual tax declaration report after confirming that there was no problem.

This is only a preliminary report for large income, and it is not the final report before the new Gregorian year.

As Oda Shingo's fame rose, it also affected the attention of taxation.

Even the Tokyo Taxation Bureau of the Financial Services Agency noticed Oda Shingo.

"Is Oda Shingo a celebrity in the comics world?" The tax general manager Kurosaki stared at the celebrity report, his eyes seemed to burn through the paper.

Kurosaki was over 40 years old, just the age of career vigor. As the general manager of the Tokyo Waterworks Bureau, he was a director-level officer.

Since Tokyo's political status is one level higher, his identity can be regarded as the chief of the local tax bureau, with great authority. If he targets any company, the president will be trembling.

"Yes! He is a well-known cartoonist who has recently emerged this year! In more than half a year, he has drawn a large number of comics, and they are very popular in the market."

"Investigate! Investigate hard!"

"Hey!"

Tax General Officer Kurosaki gritted his teeth and grasped the list: "The guys on this list are definitely worth investigating!"

The most important assessment for promotion in the Japanese tax system is to see how many big rats who cheat and replace the pillars are caught.

These newly popular celebrities are the easiest to catch tax problems, and are also the favorite targets of the tax system.

But in just two days, the subordinates came to report.

"Oda Shingo, no tax issues were found! And he strictly paid taxes according to the 45% tax point!"

"...How is it possible? How could there be such a new person! He earned several hundred million yuan, but he would quietly pay 45% tax points?!" General Officer Kurosaki didn't believe it at all, and his face was distorted.

He still had a grasp of the level of his subordinates, so he couldn't find out anything, right?

He couldn't accept that the newcomer would pay taxes honestly, so Kurosaki personally took people to check.

Oda Shingo's taxation was entrusted, so Kurosaki naturally went to the entrusted accounting firm to check taxes, which did not affect Oda Shingo's studio.

The accounting firm quickly informed Oda Shingo of the news.

"Check my taxes?" Oda Shingo was happy when he heard it, "They should give me a small medal for tax model, right?"

"Uh, sorry..."

Oda Shingo frowned, he felt that the matter was not simple.

Sure enough, it was easy to be targeted when he was in the limelight.

Should I ask the Ministry of Culture for help? Oda Shingo quickly rejected this idea.

The Ministry of Culture owed him a favor, and although he paid part of it by tax-free "Cells at Work!" animation, if he asked for it, it would be difficult to ask for anything else in the future.

It would be better not to save the face of the Ministry of Culture if possible.

Besides, he personally took care of his own taxes, so there was indeed no problem.

"Check it." Oda Shingo didn't care.

But what Oda Shingo didn't expect was that the accounting firm called again soon.

He carefully explained a situation.

General Manager Kurosaki actually invited Oda Shingo to have tea.

"Okay, arrange a place." Oda Shingo agreed almost without hesitation.

But he didn't expect that the place where General Kurosaki invited him was the tax office in Chiyoda District.

This was a bit like being invited to the office for tea. Oda Shingo touched his chin, but he did not refuse or renegotiate.

"It's settled. Please tell Mr. Kurosaki that I'll see you tomorrow."

Tax matters were put aside for the time being. Before going to bed at night, Oda Shingo quietly handed a piece of paper to Yuko Mikami: "For you."

What he wrote to her was Bai Juyi's "Growing Flowers in the Green Field Hall in Response to Linggong".

Oda Shingo had noticed Yuko Mikami's envious eyes when he wrote Chinese characters for other girls.

Yuko Mikami was stunned, and when she saw clearly that there were also lines of Chinese characters written on it, she was so happy that she almost screamed: "Ah? Thank you, Mr. Oda!"

"Don't be so polite."

"No, I must thank you! Otherwise, I will rub your back?"

"No..."

The next day.

Oda Shingo took Namikaze Yukaku to the tax office.

He knew Namikaze's temper. If he didn't bring her with him in public, she would still follow him secretly.

But today we were going to an official institution. If she was allowed to lurk, it would cause no trouble. It would be better to bring her with him directly.

When Namikaze Yukaku knew that she was invited to the tax office, Namikaze Yukaku nodded vigorously: "I understand! Shingo, don't worry, even if they want to arrest you, they have to get past me first!"

She narrowed her eyes, flipped her palm, and three kunai appeared between her fingers.

"That's not what I meant... Don't make a killing!" Oda Shingo was sweating.

"Ah, I understand! If they make any unusual moves, I will take you back to my hometown! I'm afraid they can't find it..."

"... Fujido Kaoru, you should go with me."

As a result, the two girls followed together.

Coincidentally, the moment Oda Shingo entered the tax office, he was seen by a comic critic passing by.

[Oda Shingo is suspected of having serious tax problems! He has been summoned by the Tokyo Taxation Agency! 】

In less than half an hour, this breaking news was reported online.
