Chapter 182: Washington General Administration Meeting

"You can see that our tax chief David has won 62.66 million in taxes this time, ranking third in the country, applause and encouragement......"

As William's words fell, the scene suddenly erupted in thunderous applause.

David immediately stood up from his seat and bowed to the crowd behind him to thank him.

"Okay, let's report on the situation of the teams in this bureau......"

In the following time, William pointed out the tax situation of each team in this assessment period one by one, and the criticism that should be criticized and the encouragement that should be encouraged is encouraged.

In the end, it came to the point that many people in the audience were most concerned about, that is, the issue of official funds.

"Uh-huh......"

William moistened his throat a little, and under the expectation of the audience, he said slowly: "Due to the huge high tax performance this time, therefore, the public funds have also been greatly improved, and with the approval of the General Administration, our Lake District Bureau has obtained an allocation of 3 million public funds......

Hearing the amount of 3 million, in addition to David and his team, the other 9 tax commissioners and their team members present all had a fire in their eyes.

"The inspection team led by Tax Commissioner David contributed the most to this official fund, so the seventh squad received 1 million distributions, and the first squad ......"

In the following time, William began the distribution of official funds.

According to the old rules, the team with the most contribution will receive more funds, and vice versa.

20 minutes later, the 3 million official funds were officially distributed, and William made a new incentive speech for the appraisal period, and the appraisal period meeting was dismissed.

At the same time, Washington, the headquarters of the IRS.

The IRS headquarters is located in the heart of Washington, D.C., on the magnificent Constitution Avenue.

The headquarters building is rectangular in shape and decorated in classic white marble, and the front of the building is engraved with the logo of the Internal Revenue Service of the United States, which is mainly in the shape of a shield and inlaid on a silver banner to symbolize the authority and rigor of taxation.

Entering the building, the most conspicuous thing is the portrait of Lincoln, the founder of the IRS, hanging on the wall, and below him, the portraits of the previous commissioners.

And on the other end of the portraits of Lincoln and the previous directors, there are also portraits and information introductions of some people.

These are some of the inspectors and tax collectors who have made significant contributions to the IRS since its founding nearly 160 years ago.

Of course, it is also the dream of every inspector, tax collector, tax inspector, and even sub-bureau chief in the country to be displayed here.

On the top floor of the headquarters building are the offices of the Director and other senior leaders.

In a conference room on that floor, a rectangular table was placed in the center, surrounded by nearly all the top executives of the IRS.

"This round of the assessment period is over, everyone is telling us what they think, right?"

At the lonely end of the rectangular table, a man in his early fifties wears a gray suit; The man with thick eyebrows and a rather unangry appearance said this.

He is the current head of the IRS, Obadiah Beale.

"The Manhattan branch has performed well, it is the first branch office to break 100 million in black tax revenue since the passage of our black tax bill, and I think we should tilt more resources to this bureau, so that we will achieve better results in the future."

"The Long Beach Branch is also good, although it has not broken 100 million, it has reached more than 80 million, and it also has great potential."

"The Queens precinct isn't bad either......"

“……”

Many of the high-level people present have risen from these sub-bureaus, and their influence is still entrenched in these sub-bureaus.

As their sphere of influence, they naturally want to speak out to defend the interests of their own region.

"I think the best performance is the Las Vegas Lake District Bureau, which is a miracle that this kind of small bureau can reach more than 60 million tax results!"

Just as everyone continued to speak out to defend the sub-bureau under their influence, the sound of this voice made everyone stop talking and turn their heads to look.

It turned out that it was none other than the deputy commissioner in charge of the black tax bill, Donald Gardner, who said this.

"I agree with Deputy Commissioner Donald's words, it is indeed a miracle that such a small bureau in the Lake District can compare with and even surpass some of the big bureaus in Los Angeles, New York, and Chicago."

"The main reason why the Lake District Bureau was able to achieve such tax performance was that the tax collector named David, this person is a talent, and we should focus on cultivating ......talents."

“……”

After Donald spoke out, some other high-level officials also echoed his words, and many even praised David by name.

"Since we are talking about David, let's also share our thoughts on the god-making plan, and who do you think is more suitable in our IRS system!"

Obadiah's words fell, and the faces of the high-level people at the scene instantly turned pale.

But it didn't take long for one of the deputy directors to speak directly: "Speaking of the God-making Project, Brown Soros of the Manhattan Branch has won the first place in a row since the establishment of the assessment period, and I think there is no better fit than him!" ”

"That's right, in terms of contributions, he is currently the first person in our black tax bill, and in terms of ability, he is now even more feared by the criminals in Manhattan, and it is indeed the most suitable person to serve as the spokesperson of our black tax bill."

"I also support Brown Soros ......"

"Bellamy Hardy of the Long Beach Branch is not bad, haven't you heard of the '223' incident he made in the jurisdiction, and in one fell swoop he subdued the largest local drug trafficking group, which can win us a lot of public favor."

"Bellamy Hardy is really good, not only is he very capable, but he also has a good image and temperament, and I think he deserves to be the face of our black tax bill......"

“……”

It can be seen that whether it is Brown Soros or Bellamy Hardy, they have the support of many high-level executives present.

At this time, Donald couldn't stand it anymore, and he directly interrupted: "Why, Brown Soros and Bellamy Hardy are excellent, but Dave of the Las Vegas Lake District is not outstanding?" ”

"And let's not forget who led the armed operation in Nevada, and this is simply the best publicity our IRS has had in years."

"In addition to the armed operations, there are also his actions in Sparks and Henderson, which makes the majesty of our IRS more visible to the world."

"Do you think that Bellamy Hardy and Brown Soros are really more suitable than him to be the spokesperson of the Black Tax Bill?"

Donald knew that Bellamy Hardy and Brown Soros had unusual backgrounds, which was why many of the high-level executives present spoke for them.

However, as the drafter of the black tax bill, he is bent on seeing this bill carried forward, so he naturally wants to choose the most suitable person to serve as the spokesperson of this bill.

And the person he thinks is the most suitable person is none other than David!

"I support Deputy Commissioner Donald's point of view, since David led the armed operation, the media have labeled him as a 'tax evasion buster' and an 'iron tax collector', and he is definitely more suitable than Bellamy Hardy and Brown Soros to be the spokesperson for the Black Tax Bill!"

"David is a good fit for a small bureau like the Lake District to be able to achieve tax performance comparable to those two people, not to mention leading armed operations and performing like Sparks and Henderson."

"I support Davy."

"I chose Davy, and he did a great job ...... our IRS"

Although David had no background, his outstanding performance not only conquered Donald, but also many of the senior executives present.

After hearing these words, the high-level people who supported Bellamy Hardy and Brown Soros just now had to be silent at this moment.

This is indeed the principle.

The two people they support, Bellamy Hardy and Brown Soros, have performed better than David in each of the appraisal periods.

But you know, David is in a small bureau like Las Vegas, but even if he can create such tax performance, in a way, it is already a win.

Not to mention that David is still the hero of getting the IRS armed to re-deter the nation, plus the feat of Sparks and Henderson.

But despite this, for his own interests, a deputy director present still spoke out against his will after being silent for a while: "Deputy Director Donald is a little reasonable, but after all, Brown Soros has won the first place in the tax performance list every time and has made great contributions to our IRS. ”

"That's right, this round of David is just the third, instead of choosing the first and not the second, he chose the third, which can't convince the public."

"I agree with ...... too"

Listening to these people's words, Donald's lungs were about to explode.

Whoever has the most tax performance and who is in the position seems to be fine on the surface.

But again, how can the platform of Las Vegas be compared with big platforms such as Los Angeles and New York?

These people are too shameless to help Bellamy Hardy and Brown Soros Mountain!

But just when Donald wanted to speak out, Obadiah took the lead and said, "Since everyone has their own opinions, what do you think? ”

Across from Obadiah, a man with a high nose, who was also sitting alone, thought after hearing this.

His name is Vertonghen Matt, and he is the principal counsel in the IRS.

In the IRS system, the chief adviser, like the director, needs to be nominated by the president and approved by the Senate before he can take office.

Therefore, the role of chief adviser is arguably one of the two most powerful people in the IRS system.

After thinking for a moment, under the gaze of everyone, Vertonghen said slowly: "It is undeniable that David's performance is outstanding, and in a way, he may surpass Bellamy Hardy and Brown Soros. ”

"However, Deputy Director Rahan is also right, Brown Soros and Bellamy Hardy have made the greatest contribution to our black tax bill."

"If you don't choose the first or the second, but choose the third, this will not only make the first two people chill, I am afraid it will also cause dissatisfaction among many inspectors across the country, who will think that our high-level executives are operating in the dark, and if it is serious, it may make them have negative emotions, which is very detrimental to our tax work......."

Hearing this, Donald and the few people who supported David just now instantly fell to the bottom.

As the IRS's chief adviser, Vertonghen's words definitely carry weight.

And now that he has said so, even if Obadiah supports David in his heart, he will definitely not be able to let David take the position so smoothly.

What's more, they still don't know if Obadiah supports David in his heart.

Some people rejoice, and some people are sad.

Those who supported Brown Soros just now instantly became happy, because according to Obadiah's statement, it was naturally Brown Soros who was in charge.

"Welltonghen's analysis makes sense, but ...... If this statement is followed, it will definitely make David feel cold, although his tax performance is not as good as those two, but after all, he is in such a small bureau, and there is a series of plus points such as armed action, which cannot be ignored......"

Obajoya's words shocked Donald and the others, who were originally in a low mood, in an instant.

Because they had heard it, their director seemed to be supportive of David.

And as long as there is Obadiah's support, then there is still hope for Davy!

As soon as Obadiah said this, the field instantly became quiet.

Now it's clear that the two big IRS giants, one is backing Brown Soros and the other is supporting David.

And the god-making plan can only choose one person, so the form becomes very subtle.

And just when the atmosphere gradually solidified a little.

The deputy director, named Rahan, suddenly spoke: "Although David is qualified, I think he must not be chosen!" ”

As soon as these words came out, many people at the scene had surprise on their faces.

Because the deputy director just now, although he supported Brown Soros, he was also sure of David's contribution.

But now, the words have taken on an aggressive edge, which naturally shocks and puzzles many people.

Donald frowned, and immediately asked: "Deputy Director Lahan, what do you mean by this, why can't you choose him?" ”

"I received the news that Stevenson, the governor of Nevada, was single-handedly ousted by him, although this matter is not clear to outsiders for the time being, but no one dares to guarantee that it will not spread one day."

"And if it does get out and get known to governors, senators, lawmakers, and some people here in Washington, it's going to get us in big trouble."

"So, if he is chosen to be the face of our IRS, what are we going to do if something does happen to him?"

Hearing Lahan's remarks, many people instantly looked nervous.

The reason why the black tax bill passed Congress was because no one would care about and pity those lawbreakers, and at the same time, it would not touch the interests of those senators, representatives, and other elites, so they would let this bill pass.

But if the news of Davy's downfall of Stevenson spreads, it will definitely make many powerful people panic.

When the time comes, they will probably hit David at all costs.

And if they do choose David as the IRS spokesperson, it may be a real problem.

Thinking of this, the high-level officials who supported David just now, including Obadiah, began to waver a little in their hearts.

However, Donald did not waver in the slightest, he directly reprimanded angrily: "Deputy Director Lahan, since David can bring down Stevenson, it proves his ability, far more than Bellamy Hardy, Brown Soros, I don't know how much, this is a plus, how can you become a minus?" ”

"And don't forget, we at the IRS have so much power because the federal constitution gives us that."

"It's always been us who go to other people's troubles, how can we be afraid that others will come to us for trouble?"

"If Mr. Lincoln knew about this, he would definitely denounce us descendants for being cowardly!"

Donald's words were sonorous and powerful, like rolling thunder into the ears of everyone present.

And Obajoya and the others, who were a little shaken in their hearts just now, also woke up at this moment, and their faces were a little hot.

Oh, yes.

They are the IRS, the most powerful agency in the whole of America, so why should they be so afraid of those powerful people?

And if those people really dare to make trouble for them, then they will directly let David go, since David can bring down Stevenson, the governor, then it must not be too difficult to rectify these powerful people, right?

Thinking of this, Obajoya said directly: "Deputy Director Donald is right, since David can bring down Stevenson, this also reflects his ability, and it should not be counted as a minus!" ”

Donald breathed a sigh of relief, it seems that his powerful words still woke up the director, as long as the director is holding up, then there is still a chance to win!

"Since everyone has their own opinions, I have a proposal!"

Everyone turned their heads to see that it was Turs Cizer, the special agent responsible for overseeing tax investigations and enforcement in the regions.

Obacho immediately asked, "What proposal?" ”

"We don't need to select the candidates for the god-making plan now, isn't the new round of assessment period starting now, just notify them directly, after this round of assessment period, the highest tax performance is the candidate, so that if they lose, they will be convinced, which is also the fairest choice at present."

"Wait......"

Donald immediately said: "What are you kidding, how can Las Vegas have more taxes than Los Angeles and New York, it's not fair." ”

Tours replied, "Then it should be fair to transfer David to another region now and give him a fair platform to compete, right?" ”

Donald frowned.

The other party's proposal seems fair, but in fact it is still unfair.

The reason is very simple, whether it is Brown Soros or Bellamy Hardy, both of them are now very familiar with their jurisdictions, and the taxes are naturally handy.

And now that David is transferred to another area, the platform is the same, but it takes time to get familiar with the new area, how can David keep up with the tax rhythm of those two people in a short period of time?

But when he wanted to speak out against it, he was directly preempted by Vertonghen, and he spoke: "I think this proposal is good and fair, what do you think Director Obajoya?" ”
