Rebirth of the Evil Life

297 Chapter Six Hundred and Twenty-Nine Long Live the American Tax System

...inside the "Second World" offices. Takashi Nishiyama's seventh game is small. , Lin Feng, Wu Zhaopu and others are paying close attention to the public beta of "The Strongest on Earth".

At present, the main profitable games of "Second World" are "Full House of Audition" and "Sword 1 Heroes: Devotion to the Country". "Legend" has declined, "Crazy Farm" has only half of its revenue in the domestic market in Asia, Europe and the United States, "Zhengtu" and "Giant Group" share profits equally, and "Fist" and other e-sports games "loser pays" revenue.

In terms of hardware, income from selling "smart" computers, "qu" chips and "four" chips, and operating "Second World" national chain Internet cafes.

There are many profitable projects. But the expense is also huge. level computer input. In terms of games, "War of the Worlds" input. Although the investment in the blade engine technology has cooperated with "Blizzard" in the development of the engine, as "Blizzard" fell into a situation where the owner may change, the development of the engine stalled, and Lin Feng let "Fanru" lead the "Second It is lost. The technicians alone open the engine. Also, although the construction cost of the "Second World" headquarters building is paid by the "Cheung Kong Industrial Group", the "Second World" must pay up to 100 million U.S. dollars in interest plus principal every year. But the year is paid off, the "Second World" headquarters building is expected to invest around 100 million US dollars, and the construction of the "Legendary Movie City" is about to be completed, but it will then be turned into a game theme park.

Of course, there are also investments in hardware for "" and "gong". Although Lin Feng is going to adopt the "Star Wars" plan. Come on. "However, the investment in this area should not be too conservative. It is estimated that the annual investment will be around US$1B." The annual investment in the technical hardware research and development department is in the billions of US dollars.

All these investments require money. Although "Second World" is already on the market. Even though it holds nearly one trillion dollars in cash and previously had billions of dollars in cash, it invested in the "Second World" national chain Internet cafes and other expenses to attract two dollars, but it wants to continue to grow and develop steadily, becoming the world's largest four, the company , the more profit-making items there must be, the better.

"The Strongest on Earth" is a new profitable project, which can also make the stock price of "Second World" climb to the peak again.

"Boss, good news!" Takashi Xishan, who has been closely following the public beta data of "The Strongest on Earth", reported to Lin Feng excitedly in a mouthful of Chinese that was still a bit unfamiliar.

Lin Feng and Wu Zhaopu looked at each other, looking at Takashi Xishan expectantly.

"Boss, as of now, Year of the Knife Guard" Moonrise, Tuesday. At 1:00 noon, one hour after the server was launched, the highest number of online users of "The Strongest on Earth" reached 10,000. Among them, continental players attract 00,000 people, and Japanese players kill 10,000 people. There are 10,000 players from South Korea, 10,000 players from other Asian countries, and Europe and the United States. Since it is currently night and they don’t particularly like the game style of "The Strongest on Earth", there are currently only about 10,000 players. " Xishan Takashi said excitedly.

! Lin Feng clenched his fist and let out a soft cry.

"The Strongest on the Ground" adopted an unprecedented global simultaneous public beta, and the servers were launched simultaneously in Asia, Europe, and America. This also allowed "The Strongest on the Ground" to create the highest online record of the online game public beta. certainly. There is not a small gap from "Audition All-Star Lineup"'s Guinness record for the highest online game online game, but Lin Feng believes that "The Strongest on Earth" will break this record sooner or later.

After all, as the "Second World E-Sports Champions League" is in full swing, there are more and more players who love electronic combat skills, plus the various near-perfect designs of "The Strongest on Earth" and the popularity of "The King of Fighters" in the past. Breaking through the Tian 10,000 online record is not a dream.

Of course, it can't compare with "Crazy Farm" which created the world's highest record of 100,000 people online. But strictly speaking, although "Crazy Farm" already has elements of various large-scale online games. Such as upgrades, such as attack, defense, and various plant attributes, but in fact, "Crazy Farm" is still a casual online game. After all, players only need to enter the game regularly to grow and steal vegetables. Of course, "plants" must be planted for defense.

"Boss, it seems that "The Strongest" will also become our company's third most profitable game." Wu Zhaopu said excitedly.

At present, the most profitable game in "Second World" is undoubtedly "Crazy Farm". The monthly subscription fee of one dollar for European and American players can bring nearly ten thousand dollars in gross profit to "Second World". The income from Asia can bring a gross profit of 40,000 US dollars to the "Second World", excluding operating costs. tax. There is also a monthly net profit of nearly 10,000 US dollars.

The net profit of tens of thousands of dollars per month is still increasing month by month, which is a very enviable income. In particular, more than half of the profits are contributed by the American people. After all, they only need to spend 1 dollar a month to enjoy the fun of stealing vegetables, growing vegetables, and fighting thieves. It's very, very cheap for people. However, such huge profits are monopolized by the "Second World", which makes many "anti-Forest" media and experts in the United States unhappy. There have been attacks on the taxation of the "Second World" American division.

Here, I have to mention taxes.

In the United States, due to different states, taxes are not the same, and each state has its own tax system. Lin Feng in order to reduce or exempt taxes. Taking advantage of the characteristics of the "Second World", the American branch of the "Second World" was opened in the poorest city of Eli in Georgia, where the economy is underdeveloped.

There is only 1 old person in the whole city of Yilai, which is almost equivalent to a town in China. It belongs to the mountain forest area, where mainly turpentine products are mainly used. Although life is relatively leisurely, the per capita income is far lower than the per capita income of US$10,000 in the United States. It is only about US$10,000. It is the poorest area in Georgia. To encourage other companies to invest here. According to Georgia's tax policy, the local municipal government has carried out certain preferential policies on top of it, hoping that other companies will come to invest. Improve the local economy.

Unfortunately, due to the location in a mountainous forest area and the underdeveloped economy, although the transportation is convenient and the telecommunications are smooth, there are very few companies that come to invest. With the local municipal government in trouble, the "Second World" American branch opened in Eli, Georgia. According to the tax policy of Eli, the "Second World" American branch only needs to pay the old Corporate income tax. Compared with other economically developed cities, the tax system is often higher. This year, it has helped the industry. The US branch has reduced taxes by tens of millions of dollars. There are other related tax relief policies.” Second World. The US branch can deduct one US dollar of corporate income tax every year for each job position provided to the local area within three years. And if it has been in business for more than three years, and the investment amount exceeds 10,000 US dollars, it can apply for investment tax incentives.

Moreover, if the wages paid to employees are more than twice the local average wage level, each position can be deducted from the company's corporate tax in the current year. The preferential period is three years. Part of the company's wine training expenses for the hired employees can be used to offset the company's corporate income tax for the year. In addition, corporations are eligible for corporate income tax credits for the purchase and construction of qualified child care facilities and space for their employees.

It can be said that gods were created. The "Second World" American branch, the actual corporate income tax in Eli City is only calculated on average. Moreover, although Georgia's economy is not developed, in the United States, Internet broadband has already entered thousands of households, so the "Second World" American branch has not been affected by the economic impact of poor areas in Georgia.

This also caused the American media to criticize it greatly.

The indignant and cunning Chinese on the face of "USA TODAY" set up the company in the most economically underdeveloped area of ​​Georgia, the most economically underdeveloped area in the United States, but it did not affect the operation of the "Second World Small. The United States branch, " Crazy Farm has earned tens of thousands of dollars in profits every month in the United States, but only needs to pay about 100,000 in taxes. It is too cunning, too cunning.

"Washington Times" A damn Chinese, playing with the American tax system, evading taxes in the United States. I call on the state government of Georgia to amend the state law so that the "Second World" pays their fair share of taxes.

There was criticism from all walks of life in the United States. After all, the "Second World" is too dazzling, too enviable. Especially since it happens to be a Chinese company. And its president is so annoying.

It always makes American companies look ugly, and in various crises, it not only gets the limelight, but also always reaps the biggest profits. This makes people jealous, jealous, and unwilling.

However, in the face of attacks from major American newspapers and even financial experts. Before Lin Feng could respond, the state government of Georgia stepped forward.

"Indeed," the second world. The American branch took advantage of the loopholes of the state plan, while earning huge profits every month. You only need to pay about 100000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 Economically Economic Region of Taxation. is extremely cheap. But for us in Georgia. Especially for Yilai City, the tax revenue of the station is already very high. If other companies or individuals think it is unbalanced, we welcome them to invest in Georgia, and our Georgia government will definitely give them the same tax incentives as "the second world," Georgia Governor McKenzie said impassionedly.

Georgia Governor McKenzie's speech immediately dispelled all media attacks. Some governors have come to support the "Second World." Supporting Lin Feng, what else can they say. What's more, according to Georgia's state law, Georgia Governor McKenzie did not favor Lin Fengchu at all, and everything was implemented in accordance with Georgia's state law.

As for those companies that look at the "Second World" with envy, there is nothing to say. Georgia's economy is underdeveloped. Everyone knows. Letting financial investment companies like them invest there is undoubtedly digging their own graves. What to invest there? Pine forest, or stone? Or retail? There is only one Shengjiu person in the whole city. How much tax revenue can be generated.

After all, Georgia is far away from the financial center. Although the transportation is convenient, no company is willing to go there, and there is only the "Second World". This kind of online game company can make gods take root there.

After all, what the "second world" needs is a network, not a financial center. As long as the network is smooth, the "Second World" can sit back and relax. However, after the broadband expansion in the early fat years in the United States, all cities and towns in the United States have already connected to broadband. Economically poor areas are no different than economically developed areas when it comes to networking.

Of course, what makes those companies even more angry is that "Wal-Mart" has also opened a "Wal-Mart" national retail chain store in this economically impoverished city of Eli. Regarding the doubts from the outside world and criticizing "Wal-Mart" for helping Lin Feng, a Chinese, Wal-Mart's president Samuel Robson Walton only said one sentence.

"Wal-Mart" has only one goal to become the world's number one retail chain store. Our goal is to have "Wal-Mart" wherever there is a need. Many "anti-Lin" people are speechless after saying these words. He could only curse this damn Lin Feng secretly in his heart, he became the director of "Wal-Mart" by virtue of his wealth, and gained the support of "Wal-Mart".

Lin Feng, who was in Los Angeles at the time, called to express his gratitude immediately after learning that Georgia Governor Mike McKenzie was supporting him.

"Governor McKenzie. Thank you for your support, I think we" Second World, it is a very wise choice to choose Georgia as the US branch. " Lin Feng said happily.

"Mr. Lin, you don't need to express any gratitude to me. Everything I do is for all Georgia citizens. It is also in line with the laws formulated by Georgia. You are our legal investment company here and should be protected by our laws. It is also what we should do. If Mr. Lin really wants to thank you, please continue to invest in Eli and Georgia. We still have many preferential policies here, which will definitely maximize the benefits for Mr. Lin's company. "Georgia Governor McKenzie said flatly.

For the city of Eli, and for the state of Georgia, it is a great honor for the city of Eli to be able to invest in Eli, Georgia, the Internet company that ranks No. 1 in global stock market value. Not only can it bring "huge" tax revenue, but it can also improve local people's livelihood. The "Second World" American branch settled in Eli City, not only employing a large number of labor force, but also because of the construction of the headquarters. The construction of surrounding facilities has improved the local living conditions. Whether it is the city of Eli or the government of Georgia, Lin Feng is very welcome.

In particular, even the embarrassing situation that there was no large-scale zero surgery in Eli City before, now there is "Wal-Mart" settled in, which is very exciting for Eli City and Georgia.

And Lin Feng listened to the words of Georgia Governor McKenzie. eyes lit up.
