"Mr. Zheng, all the income from the sale of paintings yesterday has been settled, and the total sales income is 1.73 billion US dollars, here is the full list, please take a look." Gao Guxuan handed over a stack of bills.

Zheng Zhefan looked at it, nodded and said, "It's clear at a glance, it's very clear." ”

Gao Guxuan smiled and said: "Our cooperation agreement stipulates that the income distribution ratio is seven to three, according to this ratio, the total income you should receive is 1.1 billion US dollars, but this is the income before tax, the maximum individual income tax rate in the United States is 39.6 percent, after tax deduction, your income should be 731.444 million yuan, do you recognize this figure?" ”

The maximum tax rate in the United States is 6%, which is already very low in developed countries.

The most ruthless collection of personal income tax is in France.

The maximum individual income tax rate is as high as 6%.

In other words, if you are a high earner, you will have to pay taxes on most of the money you make.

This is also the main reason why the wealthy in France have fled.

Zheng Zhefan has no special sense of money, he wants money, and he will be able to get a lot of it soon.

Therefore, he didn't have much feeling about the tax he had been deducted from more than 500 million US dollars.

He nodded and said, "Yes." ”

"Mr. Zheng, I will transfer your proceeds to your U.S. account later." Gagosian said.

"Okay, got it." Zheng Zhefan nodded.

"Mr. Zheng, I would like to talk to you about our cooperation. You see, now do you have time? Gao Guxuan said again.

Zheng Zhefan blinked: "Mr. Gao Guxuan, I remember, our cooperation agreement has already been signed, right?" ”

"Yes, yes, we have signed a cooperation agreement, but that agreement does not have a number of years of cooperation." Gao Guxuan rubbed his hands and said.

The number of years of cooperation was not signed, which is definitely a huge mistake.

If he does not sign the cooperation period, Zheng Zhefan can choose another gallery to cooperate with now.

That was a huge loss for Gagoxuan.

Gao Guxuan muttered in his heart, and cursed fiercely to Zhang Tingjian, the manager of the China region: This bastard has made Lao Tzu too passive.

"Oh, I see. Mr. Gagoxuan, the reason why I didn't sign the term was because I didn't want to be tied to death, I wanted my own freedom, so I didn't sign the term of the sign. Zheng Zhefan said.

"Mr. Zheng, if you don't sign the cooperation period, it will make me very scared, do you think this is good, let's sign a new five-year consignment agreement, and then, the proportion of the share, I can let out 5 points, you 7.5, I 2.5, okay?" Gao Guxuan looked at Zheng Zhefan and said.

5 points, that's also a huge benefit.

Gao Guxuan felt pain when he said this number.

"I don't think it's better not to re-sign, it's good to be like this now." Zheng Zhefan shook his head and said with a smile.

When Gao Guxuan heard this, he became even more anxious.

Zheng Zhefan refused to sign a cooperation period with himself, which means that he may end the cooperation with him at any time.

If Zheng Zhefan ends his cooperation with him, his loss will be hundreds of millions of dollars!

"Mr. Zheng, if you re-sign the agency agreement with me, the sharing ratio can be eight to two, you are eight to two, and there is no cooperation agreement with a larger sharing ratio than this sharing ratio. No other gallery will give you this percentage. Gao Guxuan said.

Zheng Zhefan glanced at Gao Guxuan with an anxious face.

He shook his head.

Xin said, it seems that this cooperation period is really very important to him.

If you don't sign him for a specific number of years, he will have trouble sleeping. Then sign one.

Thinking so, he was about to speak, when he heard Gao Guxuan say again: "Mr. Zheng, let me take one more step, and the sharing ratio can become 8.5 to 1.5, I only need 1.5 points, and it's okay!" ”

Gao Guxuan shook his head when he saw Zheng Zhefan, thinking that Zheng Zhefan was determined not to sign a long-term cooperation with him.

If that's the case, it means that Zheng Zhefan is likely to tear up the agency agreement immediately. And if he tears up the agency agreement, he won't want to earn any more.

After thinking about it again, Gao Guxuan gave in one step further.

"It seems that this cooperation period is really important to Mr. Gagoxuan, well, well, in that case, then I agree to re-sign the cooperation agreement with you, but, Mr. Gagoxuan, you don't have to be like this! Since I have chosen to cooperate with you, as long as the cooperation is pleasant, I will not make any changes. Zheng Zhefan said.

Gao Guxuan didn't believe Zheng Zhefan's words.

When he heard Zheng Zhefan say this, he was overjoyed and said: "Thank you, Mr. Zheng, thank you very much, I have brought the new agreement, you can take a look." ”

As he spoke, he took out a thick agreement and handed it to Zheng Zhefan.

The agreement is, of course, in English.

Zheng Zhefan quickly looked through it and found that in addition to the fact that the cooperation period has become 5 years, he has exclusive permissions, and if the cooperation is terminated during the cooperation period, he will need liquidated damages of up to 10 million US dollars, and there is nothing inappropriate about it.

He nodded and said, "Okay, let's re-sign this agreement." ”

He re-signed the cooperation agreement with Gagosian.

Gao Guxuan, who had completed the re-signing, smiled happily, and he and Zheng Zhefan said a few more words of gossip, then said goodbye and turned to leave.

Gao Guxuan had just left not long ago when there was another knock on the door.

Isabella went over and opened the door.

Outside the door stood a capable white OL girl.

"Does Mr. Zheng live here?" The woman asked.

"Yes, excuse me, do you have an appointment?" Isabella asked.

"I'm a Citibank employee, my name is Sophie Miller, and I want to talk to Mr. Zheng Zhefan about some financial matters." The woman said.

It turned out to be a bank clerk.

Zheng Zhefan's U.S. account is also open in Citibank.

"Please let her in." Zheng Zhefan said.

The Sophie Miller was invited in and sat down on the couch.

"Mr. Zheng, you now have $350 million in your account, all of which are demand deposits, which will bring you huge financial losses, and my suggestion is that you should invest in several funds like this, which will inevitably bring you more returns......" Sophie Miller began with a charming smile.

Zheng Zhefan was stunned.

How could there be so much extra money in your own account all at once?

At this time, Gao Guxuan should not have transferred the proceeds from the sale of paintings to his own account.

He pinched his fingers and suddenly realized.

Of the 350 million, 100 million was transferred by Adrien Fernandez. This kid was very obedient and gave this ransom to himself so quickly.

The other 250 million was transferred to him by Ai Meier. Why did Ai Meier give herself so much money at one time?
