The second day back to the hotel.

According to Gu Chen's request from the Luocheng Police Department, all Chinese police teams will have a day off.

However, the case against Ronaldo continues to ferment in local forums.

Since last night, the headlines on the front pages of major media in Luocheng, as well as all the hot topics on social forums, have almost been linked to the Ronaldo case.

All kinds of extreme comments are also endless.

Most fans don't believe it's true at all, even though Ronaldo has pleaded guilty, but the icon's innocence is still strong in the hearts of many fans.

After all, Ronaldo previously represented the Liberty Club and put a lot of effort into public relations activities.

Doing charity and helping the poor, these positive images that were over-publicized suddenly collapsed overnight.

Everyone was unexpected, and even media reporters couldn't believe that a former talented football teenager would do such a thing before going to press.

"Tuk tuk. Just as Gu Chen was scrolling through the local forum, there was a knock on the door.

Officer Wang stepped forward to open the door, and two hotel waitresses came to the front pushing a dining cart.

"Hello officer, your lunch has been delivered. A tall, thin waitress said.

"Thank you. Officer Wang gave up his position, pointed to the desk, and said, "Just put it over there." ”

"Okay. The tall and thin waitress nodded, and then sent Gu Chen and Officer Wang's lunch to the desk in Gu Chen's office.

While putting down the meal, the tall and thin waitress smiled and said, "Officer Gu, you have recently become a celebrity in Luo Cheng, and many people know you." ”

"Oh. Gu Chen's expression was indifferent, and he moved the notebook to the left.

Putting down a plate of food, the tall and thin waitress said again: "Officer Gu, many of my colleagues admire you now, you have solved two cases in such a short period of time, and everyone thinks you are very powerful." ”

"Oh, thanks. Gu Chen's fingers tapped briskly on the keyboard, his eyes stared directly at the screen, and he didn't look at the waiter more.

also felt Gu Chen's coldness, the tall and thin waitress who was originally holding enthusiasm suddenly pursed her lips, feeling that it was very troublesome to communicate with Gu Chen.

So she put the rest of the plates on the table, and then said, "Officer Gu, can I take a photo with you? ”

"Yes. Gu Chen still typed his work routine on the screen, nodded and agreed to the waitress's small request.

The tall and thin waitress was also overjoyed, and hurriedly beckoned to her companions outside the door, and said softly: "Come in quickly, Officer Gu has agreed to take a photo with us." ”

"Oh. A chubby waitress at the door quickly took out her mobile phone from her pocket and ran to Gu Chen's side in small steps.

"Officer Gu, please turn your face sideways. ”

"Officer Gu, please laugh at it, yes, that's it. ”

The two waitresses had been taking seven or eight group photos with Gu Chen, and then they bowed to Gu Chen with joy on their faces.

"Thank you, Officer Gu, you are so handsome, you are definitely the object of admiration of all women in Luocheng, really. ”

The tall and thin waitress couldn't hide the excitement and joy in her heart.

Standing on the sidelines and seeing the two of them taking pictures for a long time, Officer Wang suddenly felt a little jealous.

After all, there's a big living person standing here? Blind, don't you see?

Taking pictures with Gu Chen actually threw himself aside, sure enough, women all over the world like handsome guys, and the old bacon is not attractive in front of them.

So Officer Wang confessed.

After all, his appearance is not as good as Gu Chen.

"Thank you, thank you, Officer Gu, bye Officer Gu. ”

The two waitresses repeatedly interacted with Gu Chen at the door to say goodbye, and Gu Chen only nodded in response, and then continued to write his work routine.

Closing the door, Officer Wang, who was deeply hurt in his heart, walked up to Gu Chen and complained, "Gu Chen, is the girl from Luocheng beautiful?"

"It's okay. Gu Chen said.

"What do you think of Lu Weiwei and Xiao Yuan?" asked Officer Wang again.

Gu Chen stopped what he was doing, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "I think Senior Sister Lu and Xiao Yuan are better-looking." ”

"Tuk tuk. ”

The voice fell, and there was another knock on the door.

"Who?" asked Officer Wang, turning his head.

"Wang, open the door. Outside the door came the knock of Lu Weiwei.

Officer Wang smiled: "This Lu Weiwei is Cao Cao's attribute, right? As soon as she was mentioned, she came to the door by herself." ”

Shaking his head, Officer Wang got up and opened the door, while Lu Weiwei and Yuan Shasha squeezed into the room together with large and small plates of food.

"Lao Wang, let me go. ”

"Lu Weiwei, what are you doing here?"

"Let's have lunch together, it's like we are in the canteen of the Furong Branch, so that there will be an atmosphere. Lu Weiwei said.

Yuan Shasha also nodded, and echoed: "That's right, Senior Brother Wang, arrange to stay in a hotel here, every time you eat, Senior Sister Lu and I are two people, how boring, let's get together to eat and have an atmosphere." ”

"All right, you ...... Only...... Just put it on the morning table, the location is already small, and now there are so many dishes. ”

Officer Wang looked at Gu Chen, who was still working, and reminded directly: "Gu Chen, don't work either, clean up the desk, make a space, and let Lu Weiwei and Xiao Yuan put the dinner plate over." ”

"Okay. After Gu Chen finished typing the last space bar, he twisted his body left and right, got up and transferred the documents and computers on the table to the bedside table.

Everyone arranged the meals in a row, and the moment was full of ritual.

The hotel has a Chinese food service, so everyone orders Chinese food.

Being able to eat the food of your hometown in a foreign country is definitely a different experience.

Putting the rice into a small wooden bowl, Lu Weiwei personally brought it to Gu Chen's side and advised: "Senior Brother Gu, go wash your hands and eat, this afternoon, after lunch, let's go for a walk around the neighborhood in the afternoon." ”

"Okay, thank you, Senior Sister Lu. Gu Chen obediently did as he was told.

After washing his hands, he took the rice bowl handed by Lu Weiwei, sandwiched some side dishes, and sat at the head of the bed to enjoy it with relish.

And Lu Weiwei took her own food and chose to sit quietly beside Gu Chen.

The two were very close to each other, and the rhythm of eating was the same......

Officer Wang, who was serving the food by himself, suddenly glanced at the two of them, sitting on Gu Chen's wooden chair, enjoying the rare loneliness.

Yuan Shasha originally wanted to sit on Gu Chen's bed, but when she saw Lu Weiwei taking the lead, she sat weakly on Officer Wang's bed and kept a distance from the two at all times.

The food is very fragrant, the taste of hometown food, after everyone has eaten and drunk enough, put away the dinner plate and wait for the waiter to come and count.

Lu Weiwei suddenly saw a business card on Gu Chen's desk, and immediately said, "Senior Brother Gu, where did you get this business card?"

"You forgot what Simon gave you yesterday?" Gu Chen said.

Lu Weiwei was stunned for a moment, and then remembered that when she returned to the hotel yesterday, Simon gave Gu Chensai a business card, and immediately said with a smile: "I forgot, it would be good to receive a business card in a foreign country." ”

Picking up Simon's business card, Lu Weiwei looked through it carefully, and then said: "Simon is the manager of the charitable foundation, which should be the manager of the foundation, and it is also a charitable foundation." ”

"There seem to be a lot of charitable foundations in Europe and the United States. Officer Wang held his chin and said thoughtfully: "I said Gu Chen, why do you think foreign tycoons like fruit donations? It seems that those big tycoons have fruit donation plans, but the rich people in our country don't seem to be perfect in this regard." ”

"Senior Brother Wang, do you really think that these rich people are really donating for charity?" Gu Chen looked at Officer Wang and asked him with a smile.

"It's hard to ...... Isn't it?" Officer Wang questioned.

Yuan Shasha on the side smiled, and said quirkily: "Sure enough, Senior Brother Wang's imagination is too simple, and I feel that Senior Brother Gu understands more." ”

"Huh?" also listening to Yuan Shasha's rebuttal, Officer Wang suddenly felt confused, and asked weakly: "Isn't the charitable foundation doing charity?"

"Senior Brother Wang. Seeing that Officer Wang was in a hurry, Gu Chen smiled and said, "Didn't you just ask me why foreign rich people like fruit donations?"

"Yes, why?" asked Officer Wang, nodding like a chicken pecking rice.

Gu Chen smiled slightly and said, "If you want to know why the fruit is donated, then you must first understand, what is the fruit donation?"

"If you donate, you donate all your assets. Officer Wang felt that this was not difficult to understand, and said: "Like Microsoft's Gates, the god of stocks, and Facebook's Xiaozha, the wife of the founder of Apple, etc., as well as many European and American tycoons have announced their donations, I know this." ”

"Ah, all donated?" Listening to Officer Wang's words, Lu Weiwei, who was a melon-eating crowd, suddenly felt distressed, and said, "Then why did you donate everything? Isn't it fragrant to keep some for your children?"

"Senior Sister Lu, do you think they are too noble, too cold-blooded?" Gu Chen asked.

"Do you need to say that?" Lu Weiwei said with great certainty: "I earn so much money, and I don't leave some for my children, so I donate it all, I feel that this is too cold-blooded, if it were me, I would definitely lose a little to my children, I feel that foreigners sometimes have a hard time understanding their thoughts." ”

"Wrong. Gu Chen directly interrupted Lu Weiwei's speech, and said with a smile: "Senior Sister Lu is wrong to understand it this way. ”

"Wrong?" Lu Weiwei blinked, and said inexplicably: "The rich man donated all his property to charity, so after the rich man died, wouldn't the property he left behind be gone?"

Gu Chen shook his head and said, "Senior Sister Lu, before you evaluate whether their morality is noble, we must first know something called inheritance tax. ”

"Inheritance tax? I know this, I heard that inheritance tax in European and American countries is very high, right?" Lu Weiwei said.

Gu Chen nodded silently, and said: "That's right, after the death of a rich man, he can't leave all his wealth to future generations, because the state charges 50% inheritance tax. ”

"In other words, children can only get half of it, and the wealth of each generation is diluted by at least half?" asked Officer Wang on the side.

"That's right!" Gu Chen said with a smile: "So, these countries use the law to popularize you, what does it mean to be rich for no more than three generations." ”

"Ruthless enough. When Officer Wang heard this, he couldn't help complaining.

I feel that it was originally my own money, how can I leave it to my children after death, and I have to pay half of the taxes.

That sounds incredible.

So he looked at Gu Chen and asked, "Gu Chen, is there any way to keep your wealth from diluted, so that future generations can enjoy their wealth forever, and the money will be the same as the sky?"

Gu Chen smiled indifferently and said, "Of course, this can't stump these rich people, that's what we just mentioned." ”

"What you just mentioned?" Lu Weiwei hesitated for a few seconds, and then said, "Is it charity?"

"Yes, it's 'charity'. ”

"Wait a minute. Officer Wang suddenly interrupted Gu Chen, and said with a bewildered expression: "Isn't this charity donating all the assets of the family? Isn't the most that the rich can get fame, and their children still have no money to take it? What is the relationship between doing charity and their descendants enjoying eternal wealth?"

Gu Chen waved his hand and interrupted Officer Wang: "Senior Brother Wang, you have to know that if you create your own foundation and let your children be the managers of the foundation for generations, won't the money be justified in the hands of future generations?"

"Also...... Can it still be like this?" Officer Wang's cognition in this regard is almost zero, and when Gu Chen said this, it sounded like there was some truth, so he nodded and said:

"That's right, my father and mother donated all their worth, set up a charitable foundation, and then arranged for their children to become the managers of the charitable foundation. ”

When Lu Weiwei heard this, she also nodded silently: "Yes, the foundation manages so much money, and it is better to hand it over to your children than outsiders to manage it." ”

"But ......" Thinking of this, Lu Weiwei still hesitated for a moment and asked Gu Chen: "Senior Brother Gu, even if you are the child of a rich man, and you are ultimately in charge of the charity fund, then this huge amount of assets will also be used for charity." ”

"But in this regard, even if the children of the rich have the management of the foundation with huge assets, they cannot use it as their own property. ”

"Yes, Lu Weiwei is right. Officer Wang had the same question.

After all, the assets of the foundation are used for charity, and in this regard, there is still a discrepancy with the expenses of the children of the rich.

Of course, Gu Chen knew that Lu Weiwei and Officer Wang lacked knowledge in this area, and they always had a questioning tone.

But looking at Yuan Shasha beside her, it seems that Yuan Shasha knows all about this, and always maintains a quiet and listening mentality, which is completely different from the reactions of Officer Wang and Lu Weiwei.

Although Gu Chen had also doubted Yuan Shasha's family background, Yuan Shasha took the bus to work every day, and in this regard, Gu Chen still dispelled the idea.

But before Gu Chen mentioned the management of these huge assets, Yuan Shasha seemed to be listening with a review mentality, which was completely different from the other new and old comrades in the third criminal investigation group of the Furong Branch.

Seeing that Lu Weiwei and Officer Wang were puzzled, Gu Chen withdrew his gaze from Yuan Shasha and said, "The Charity Foundation only needs to take out 5% of its assets every year for charity." ”

And this 5% also includes the daily expenses of the foundation, such as the high salaries of the managers of the descendants of the rich, and the expenses for eating, drinking, and lazing on official trips, which can be counted. ”

"So, what do they say about the salary?" asked Officer Wang.

Gu Chen nodded, and said, "Daily expenses, including official travel, eating, drinking, and Lazar, are all a confused account. ”

"Many managers of the descendants of the wealthy can use the funds of charitable foundations for their so-called 'official travel' in this regard. ”

"I'm lost!" Lu Weiwei was stunned when she heard it.

The heart says it can be like this? How can it be like this?

Suddenly, I thought of the high salary and daily expenses of a certain Cross Society, and I couldn't help but feel terrified for a while.

"Senior Sister Lu. Seeing Lu Weiwei in a daze, Gu Chen continued to remind: "You may not know yet, right? The charity fund can still be invested with this money." ”

"What?" was shocked just now, but Gu Chen threw out the argument that charity funds can be invested, and Lu Weiwei was stunned.

It feels completely beyond my imagination......

"This ...... This is too happy, isn't it? ”

"Poof, Lu Weiwei, what are you talking about?" Officer Wang was also laughed at by Lu Weiwei.

As a result, it was not Gu Chen who spoke this time, and Yuan Shasha on the side directly answered: "I know that Gates's charitable foundation has an annual return on investment of about 18%, which is real." ”

"What? Is there really such a high rate of return?" Officer Wang was stunned, and said in his heart that even Xiao Yuan knew?

Gu Chen glanced at Yuan Shasha, nodded and said: "That's right, if you donate 10 billion, there will be 1.8 billion income every year, which is not counted, there are even more ruthless, in order to encourage charity, European and American countries can also get 20% of the tax refund." ”

"Poof!" Hearing this, Officer Wang was dumbfounded: "It's still ...... And anti-tax? Isn't that the same as kickbacks?"

Officer Wang, who felt that the three views had been violently impacted, quickly raised his fingers and counted them carefully: "In this way, if I donate 10 billion, I can also reverse the tax of 2 billion, but nominally you still donate 10 billion." ”

"Tsk. Lu Weiwei also felt too crazy, and couldn't help but sigh twice: "This is the routine, where is this donating money? ”

"And that's not all. Seeing that Officer Wang and Lu Weiwei were already crazy, Gu Chen didn't want to end, and said that the two of them were still thinking too simply, so he said:

"Like these wealthy families in Europe and the United States, they inevitably have to deal with European and American zhengke. ”

"If you donate money directly, it's illegal, and your reputation is still bad, then what should you do? ”

"And inviting these European and American zhengke to do charity together, you can't let the family help in vain, right? So, the small meaning of hundreds of thousands of dollars a year, they have to accept whatever they say. ”

Therefore, when the money in Europe and the United States is in hand, when I am campaigning, because I am usually keen on charity, I can increase my support rate a lot. ”

"Good boy. Officer Wang was stunned anyway, and the whole person couldn't help but say: "No wonder these people are keen on charity when they are campaigning, and I feel that there is this truth in it, this is completely a routine." ”

Think about why I have always thought that European and American billionaires are so noble, although they have hundreds of billions of assets, they do not leave them to posterity after death, but choose to donate to charitable foundations.

In this regard, Officer Wang has always listened to and envied the character of these rich people.

But after Gu Chen said this, it seems that the "character" theory has to be reconsidered.

I feel that the city routine is deep, and it is better to go back to the countryside.

......
