Chapter 218: Good connections
Wu Huiling didn't believe him. In their circle, tax evasion was normalized. She didn't believe that Zhao Tingzhou had never evaded tax.
What's more, just because Zhao Tingzhou didn't steal doesn't mean that his subordinates didn't evade taxes.
Seeing the dark light in Wu Huiling's eyes, Jiang Ning looked at the two of them and spoke.
"Although you may not believe it, our program has checked these things and there is absolutely no negligence or error in any of them. Zhao Tingzhou really has no record of tax evasion."
【But there really was one. 】
Zhao Tingzhou's heart skipped a beat and his eyes were confused.
When did he evade taxes? Why didn't he know about it?
Wu Huiling's eyes lit up, thinking that Jiang Ning's voice, besides causing trouble, was still beneficial. But just as she was about to ask the staff to check Zhao Tingzhou's taxes again, she heard Jiang Ning's voice again.
[Those evaded and omitted taxes were actually due to Wu Huiling, the good agent, deliberately taking large kickbacks and not reporting them to Zhao Tingzhou. However, Wu Huiling's company is used to doing this kind of thing.]
On the one hand, they pressure the company's artists to keep accepting invitations, and on the other hand, they take kickbacks, leaving them with a stigma of tax evasion. If the artist complies, they'll pay the taxes. If they don't, and want to let the artist go, they'll expose the issue themselves, leaving the artist caught off guard and left with the responsibility. Even if they clarify, their reputation will suffer.
Zhao Tingzhou trembled after hearing this, realizing that he had definitely been treated the same way when he was still under Wu Huiling. No wonder, no wonder, when he wanted to fly abroad because he didn't want to fail socially, and was arrested and brought back, press releases about him evading taxes were flying everywhere. It seemed that this was all part of his former boss's plan.
After figuring it out, Zhao Tingzhou became confused again.
So who helped him pay the taxes?
The fans in the live broadcast room were also very angry.
[Damn, fans all know that Zhao Junzhou had a hard time in his previous company. He was busy with many announcements and was so tired that he lost a lot of weight for a while. But I didn’t expect them to be so disgusting. They are trying to kill the disobedient artist!]炵
[Thanks to the kindhearted person who helped our poor little kid pay the tax. May good people live a peaceful life.]
[This is a rubbish company. I've reported it to the relevant authorities. Just wait for them to be shut down!]
[Ahhh, my little wall-head also works for Wu Huiling's company. I wonder if he's been screwed too? Damn, this rubbish company will die a miserable death!]
[Is this the power of the Eastern Witch? How magical! She can even hear my thoughts through the screen.]
[Magical oriental power, you Hua countrymen are indeed blessed by the gods.]
[Huh? What's that weird interjection?]
[Looking at the IP, it's not from China. It's from the Ugly Country and the Eagle Country. Could it be that Jiang Ning and the others went abroad to record a show last time and attracted fans from there?]
The power of eating melons is truly immense. They even climbed over the wall just for a bite of melon. 555
[But it's hilarious that they call Jiang Ning a witch. Our Sister Gua doesn't possess Western-style power; it's technological power.]
In the camera, Zhao Tingzhou was staring at Jiang Ning, waiting for Jiang Ning to tell him who helped him.
Wu Huiling was already dizzy with anger at Jiang Ning's thoughts. She couldn't understand what kind of idiot would do such a thankless task. He did a good deed but didn't seek credit for it, and didn't even tell Zhao Tingzhou. If that wasn't a stupid idiot with a lot of money, what could he be?
But she couldn't even meet such a stupid and rich enemy, which made her feel even more unbalanced.
Jiang Ning, who was being closely watched, didn't keep the suspense for too long. After the commercials came on, he continued to watch the following melon.
[There are many artists controlled by Wu Huiling's company in this way. In addition to threatening artists with taxes, they also force them to attend the bosses' dinners, use illegal methods to exchange resources with other stars and capital, and leave photos to use when the artists disobey.]
Zhao Tingzhou is one of the lucky artists, having been able to move on from his former agency completely. Besides preferring to run countless commercial performances and being virtually blacklisted from resources, rather than attend those messy dinners that could leave room for suspicion, his assistants also helped him a lot.
If this assistant hadn't been a wealthy second-generation man who was looking for a taste of life to chase his idol, and hadn't seen his past at his previous company and persuaded his family to sign Zhao Tingzhou to his current company, and hadn't promptly paid for his taxes after learning about them, Zhao Tingzhou probably wouldn't have escaped this time.
After hearing this, Wu Huiling was almost jealous to the point of breaking apart.
As a rich second generation experiencing life, Zhao Tingzhou can encounter such dramatic things. Zhao Tingzhou must be the chosen one!
Zhao Tingzhou himself was actually still confused. He only had one assistant, who he had been using shortly after he entered the industry. Later, he got used to that stupid assistant and brought him with him even after signing with a new company.
But now tell him that this idiot, timid, greedy assistant who always snatches a box of yogurt from him is a rich second-generation?
Zhao Tingzhou looked dazed, and began to doubt the reality of this world.
Seeing his expression, Jiang Ning patted Zhao Ting Weekend's shoulder and spoke earnestly.
"Keep being kind. Good luck always favors kind people."
During a commercial performance, Zhao Tingzhou helped a chubby assistant, preventing customers at the mall from mistaking him for a thief. Afterward, noticing the assistant was feeling a bit depressed, he sang a song he had written for him. These connections are all made through good karma.
Zhao Tingzhou was surprised. So this is how his assistant became his fan?
Zhao Tingzhou felt a little ashamed. The assistant he had at the time of the commercial performance had changed so much from the assistant he had later. From a gloomy boy, he had turned into a happy puppy. He didn't even recognize his assistant.
Seeing that this guy was daydreaming, Jiang Ning said nothing more, waiting for Wu Huiling to do other examinations, and occasionally giving him reminders with his mind.
[In this entertainment club on ×× Road, Wu Huiling took the artists to meet the boss, but the artists didn't come out for a whole day and night.]
[At ×× Hotel, Wu Huiling brought her female artists for selection.]
[At ×× Villa, Assistant Wu Huiling brought the artists and bosses to a party.]
【……】
As these words were spoken, more and more surveillance footage was retrieved, and everyone's eyes on Wu Huiling became strange.
Netizens in the live broadcast room were even more outspoken.
[Is this a broker? Are you sure this isn't a pimp?]
While Wu Huiling was sweating profusely, she was also convicted of tax evasion, bribery, and the co-crime of forcing women.
Because the latter item involves the privacy of many artists and in order to give the victim the opportunity to identify Wu Huiling and her accomplices, the program did not announce Wu Huiling's punishment immediately.
Anyway, now that she has the evidence, she can't escape.
Before being taken away, Wu Huiling numbly used the selection procedure to select the next person to be investigated - He Jiawei.
After picking the person, Wu Huiling was depressed because this person was not someone from the entertainment industry.
She thought she could blow up the entertainment industry and get people to accompany her, but she didn't expect that she would be the only one blown up.
Zhao Tingzhou said he had evidence to hand over to the police, so he left the recording hall with Wu Huiling.
