Seeing that Li Mingbao understood what he meant, John smiled: "The horror of the US tax rate, you must also understand, so if you want to gain as much as possible, then you must learn to avoid taxes reasonably, otherwise, most of your money will have to be put into the pocket of the federal government." ”

"Yes, I understand, it's not so much trouble in Hong Kong, so I usually ignore it outright, but I forgot that this is the United States, and the tax collectors in the United States, as cold as goddamn vampires, deserve hell." Li Mingbao said with a depressed face.

"Yes, I agree with you, and of course, not only me, but also many rich people like us, American tax collectors, are our natural enemies. So, for your funds, I think you should find a group of qualified lawyers to complete your tax payment actions. For lawyers in this area, if you need it, I have some friends who may be able to help you. John said with a smile.

"Thank you, John. It seems that I am also going to learn how to avoid taxes wisely. I can't let those vampires take all my heart and soul away. According to the tax rate here, how much do I need to pay for my current funds? Li Mingbao asked with a not very good face.

It would be strange if his face could get better. Although the harvest this time seems to be a lot, the previous $160 million plus the $200 million in the later sale of copyrights, Li Mingbao's money in the United States is $360 million. With so much money, if the tax is paid according to the US tax rate, calculated at 35 percent, Li Mingbao will have to pay $126 million in taxes in the United States.

In other words, he can only get to Hong Kong about $234 million. To say that there is so much money, for Li Mingbao, it is actually enough, and when converted into Hong Kong dollars, there are at least more than one billion and close to two billion. But just like that, the U.S. tax officer cut off his own flesh, and it was more than 100 million dollars, if Li Mingbao had no other ideas, then he was really a Buddha.

Hearing Li Mingbao's inquiry, John also patiently explained: "Your tax rate is actually very complicated, because your money is not only earned in the United States, but also earned in Europe or other places, so the tax rate is not very fixed, but for the $160 million, you have to pay at least $40 million in taxes."

And the tax rate on copyright is actually fixed, so you have to pay about $70 million, so you have to pay about $110 million. If you follow the normal procedure, you can't escape this money. ”

Although the money John said was more than 10 million less than the money Li Mingbao calculated himself, the big head was destined to be handed over. 100 million US dollars, if so much money is put in Hong Kong, even Uncle Six will not dare to say a word. If it is put to the big 6, with the foreign exchange reserves of the big 6 in this year, it is not too difficult for Li Mingbao to be received by the No. 1 chief.

But with so much money, how can Li Mingbao be willing to let the Yankees rob it? So Li Mingbao continued to ask: "If, I mean, if there is a lawyer friend to help, then how much tax will I need to pay in the end?" ”

"If you have the help of a lawyer friend, you will only have to pay about $60 million under reasonable tax avoidance. Of course, as a friend, I would like to give you a small hint, that is, if you buy products in the United States, local products, or some other local purchases, then you will get tax rebate benefits. John replied with a smile on his face.

The United States is a country that strictly cracks down on tax evasion, and they are always very concerned about such things, and as long as you dare to evade a dollar of taxes, then the US government does not mind spending millions of dollars to hire a lawyer to meet with you in court.

Don't think that the U.S. government is stupid, they spend millions of dollars for a dollar. Because if you evade taxes for a dollar, then the judge will definitely end up ruling against you. As a loser, you not only have to pay a dollar in taxes, but you also need to pay the legal fees of the million-dollar team of lawyers hired by the U.S. government for you. So in the United States, you must not think about tax evasion, it is an absolute nightmare experience.

However, the law of the United States does not explicitly prohibit tax avoidance, as long as you do not touch the law, the government will not care about how you avoid taxes, and even if you ask the tax bureau to pour you money, of course, this must be allowed by law.

As a wealthy person in the United States, the first thing you want is not how to make money, but how to figure out how to deal with the tax officer. If you don't know how to avoid taxes reasonably, then maybe you were a billionaire last year, and you became a multimillionaire this year because of taxes.

So don't blame the rich people in the United States for having money and never saving, but after getting the money, they go to spend, expand production, or buy luxury goods, which does not mean that they all like this, but because of the tax in the United States, if they don't spend the money, then sooner or later the money will be the US government.

John gave Li Mingbao two ideas, one is to avoid taxes, so the tax he needs to pay is about 60 million, and the other is open source. Anyway, this tax collection is a fixed time every year, and it is obviously not time yet, so Li Mingbao still has some time to spend the taxes that need to be collected reasonably. If you spend the money, you won't have to pay taxes.

It's better to spend your own money than to have your own money taken by your American grandson. So for John's construction, Li Mingbao humbly accepted. Although 60 million is not a small amount, it does not seem so remarkable compared to the huge tax before.

Moreover, the 60 million Li Mingbao can also be used to buy things, and when the time comes, the tax refund will be reasonable, and in the end, the money collected by the US government may only be a few million dollars, although it is not a small amount, but compared to the huge number, this amount of money is drizzle.

When Li Mingbao was in Hong Kong, he was very tyrant in spending money. But this kind of local tyrant's behavior should be placed in the United States, that is, pediatrics. Therefore, Li Mingbao has to ask John about how to spend money.

And John didn't have the slightest reservation, so that Li Mingbao understood how to spend the money. For example, doesn't Li Mingbao have a film company in his hands? If you don't buy a building to be a film company as a base, how can you be embarrassed to call it a film company?

If you buy a base, you still have to buy equipment, don't you? Can't you always rely on renting the equipment of the film company? If you want to get a luxurious base and a complete company facility, ten million dollars is almost enough.

In this way, ten million dollars were spent. And as a person who has to spend money, you have your own company, and you have to know how to enjoy it, how can you enjoy it without buying a villa or something in the United States? Housing prices in the United States are not high, except for luxury houses, 20 million dollars, you can definitely buy a luxury house in the United States, and it also comes with an independent estate, which can be used as your own private ranch. In fact, the house is all incidental, and the ranch is the thing that needs to cost a lot of money, and thousands of acres of ranch can definitely meet your needs.

If you are in the Big 6, buying a house and a car is definitely a big expense, but in the United States, buying a house and a ranch may be a big expense, but buying a car is not a big investment, and for five million dollars, you can basically lock all the famous cars in the world in your garage. So it doesn't cost much to buy a car.

But as a person of status and status, you have to buy a private jet so that it can match your status. And in these years, the top private tailor-made aircraft, 20 million US dollars can definitely be obtained, and if you buy some helicopters for usual use, then you can almost offset the 60 million US dollars in taxes.

Hearing John's plan, Li Mingbao finally understood why there are hundreds of thousands of private jets in the United States, which is definitely not a normal demand, and a large part of the reason is because some guys, such as people like him, need reasonable tax avoidance. That's why private jets are going to get so much.

John's enlightenment immediately gave Li Mingbao the consciousness of being a local tyrant. He didn't want to buy these things, at least he didn't need them now, he was still poor, and he could work hard and simple. But the problem is that the tax rate in the United States forces Li Mingbao to buy these luxury gadgets, otherwise his money will have to be handed over to the tax bureau for nothing, and in the end, he will not even have a hair left.

So Li Mingbao immediately said to John: "It seems that I need a professional team of lawyers to solve my current problem, so Mr. John, I hope you can find a suitable team for me." ”

"No problem, it's on me, in fact, I think your troubles can be solved by a company, that is, Yuntong, they are professional in doing this, and there is a great advantage in service, looking for them, it is most helpful for you." John was very enthusiastic about it.

"Amex? Indeed, it is most appropriate to look for them. Li Mingbao was very sure of John's recommendation. Because Yuntong is a professional worker, no matter what kind of work, as long as you give money, they can give you a satisfactory explanation.

So, Li Mingbao, who was going to talk to John about the new movie he brought from Hong Kong after talking about dividends and copyrights, had to find Amex to help him tide over the difficulties because of the damn tax rate in the United States.

Because of John's introduction, Li Mingbao received a warm reception after contacting the company. Although Li Mingbao was still a little-known person in Yuntong before, after John's introduction and signaling that Yuntong Li Mingbao was a low-key billionaire, Yuntong naturally reacted quickly.

For Li Mingbao's series of problems, Yuntong said that there is no problem, in terms of taxation, they have a professional team, and they can even reduce the actual tax to only 50 million US dollars, and the money that Li Mingbao needs to spend, Yuntong will also deal with it in a very short time.

Isn't it just buying land, buying a car, buying equipment, buying an airplane? These businesses are their traditional business, and if Li Mingbao doesn't need the original plane, they can even immediately find suitable second-hand goods for Li Mingbao and trade them on the spot.
