This star’s style is wrong

People from the tax department are checking the company's accounts.

Fang Xing was not a fool. Looking at this battle, he knew there must be something fishy going on.

Under normal circumstances, this kind of department rarely conducts surprise inspections. Generally, after there is conclusive evidence, the legal person is directly notified to go to the department unit for interviews.

Moreover, most new companies are not well-structured and do not have dedicated tax preparers.

Therefore, even if you make a mistake on your tax return, there is usually an opportunity to correct it.

In a surprise inspection like this, the water is deep.

After Fang Xing greeted the person in charge of the tax department for this inspection, he immediately arranged work for Qiao Yinghong:

"Call Anhe Law Firm and ask them to send someone to handle it."

Qiao Yinghong immediately nodded and replied: "I called Anhe's people as soon as possible. The other party promised on the phone to arrange for the project team leader to lead the team over immediately. They should be here soon."

Since Ark Culture was established just over a year ago, the company was a fledgling company and lacked everything. In terms of finance, it was impossible to recruit a person in charge in a short period of time.

Moreover, company finances cannot be left to strangers.

Fang Xing had seen too many celebrities get into trouble due to paying taxes before, so he paid special attention to this aspect.

Not long after Ark Culture registered, we contacted several top tax accounting firms in Donghai and handed over the tax filing work to professional firms.

Among the top ten tax accounting firms in Donghai, the service prices are not low.

At the beginning, Ark Culture had just been registered and its revenue was too low. Some tax accounting firms were not too enthusiastic about cooperating with Ark Culture.

After careful consideration, Fang Xing chose Anhe Tax Agency, which was one of the best in the tax industry in the East China Sea.

At the beginning, Ark Culture was just an ordinary customer in Anhe Tax Agency, and the contacts were all ordinary employees.

Even the office staff that I usually interact with don't even have a "Tax Agent Professional Qualification Certificate."

However, with the development of Ark Culture over the past year and a half, it has been upgraded from an ordinary customer to a premium customer.

…

Didn't have to wait long.

Ke Zhengqi, the project leader of Anhe Tax Agency, came with his team.

When working together before, Fang Xing was always the hands-off shopkeeper, so he had never met Ke Zhengqi.

Qiao Yinghong waited until Ke Zhengqi arrived, then led him to Fang Xing and introduced him, "This is our boss."

As the person in charge of Ark Culture's taxation project, Ke Zhengqi naturally had a careful understanding of Ark Culture's situation.

Therefore, Fang Xing did not recognize him, but he recognized Fang Xing.

Ke Zhengqi smiled and stretched out his hand to shake: "Hello, Mr. Fang."

"Hello, do you know about this?" Fang Xing motioned to the tax department personnel in the conference room.

Ke Zhengqi replied calmly: "Don't worry, Mr. Fang, leave this matter to us."

After he finished speaking, he went over to communicate with the person in charge of the tax department.

As the project leader of Anhe Tax Agency, Ke Zhengqi's job is to deal with the tax department, so he knows all the tax filing procedures clearly.

He even knew these tax department people.

Being able to open such a large tax accounting firm in Donghai will certainly not be bad in terms of connections.

Therefore, after Ke Zhengqi had a brief chat with the person in charge of the tax department, the people who came to the tax department left without any further delay.

After sending away the tax inspectors, Ke Zhengqi returned to Fang Xing and said, "We will take care of the rest, so Mr. Fang can rest assured. In fact, Director Liu knew that An He was in charge of the tax of Fang's head office. He I know it in my heart, and the tax inspection is just a formality."

Fang Xing was not very worried.

At the beginning, I would rather spend more money and leave the tax to a tax accounting firm, just for safety.

For Anhe Tax Agency to be among the top three in Donghai, strength and connections are indispensable.

If Anhe Tax Agency makes a mistake in filing taxes, it will not be Ark Culture’s face that will be lost, but Anhe’s face will be lost.

Fang Xing was not worried about paying taxes, but this surprise inspection was obviously not that simple.

Fang Xing patted Ke Zhengqi's shoulder and said, "Are you free? Let's have a meal together."

"I still have some work to go back to deal with today's tax audit. Can we make a dinner date? I'll treat Mr. Fang to a meal. I've been working with Ark Culture for so long and I haven't had a meal with Mr. Fang yet." Ke Zhengqi also hopes to have a meal to protect his customers. relation.

He is the tax project leader of Ark Culture. He knows the situation of Ark Culture very well. The revenue and profits are a bit exaggerated.

For many companies, revenue can be huge, but profits may only be 3%.

Ark Culture's revenue and profits are very exaggerated because its revenue mainly relies on income from songs and film and television dramas.

The filming of film and television dramas still requires upfront investment, but the return rate is amazing.

The songs are more exaggerated, and compared to the revenue, the cost is simply negligible.

Therefore, a company like Ark Culture with astonishing revenue and negligible costs is the most important customer for the tax accounting firm.

When Ke Zhengqi first took over the tax work of Ark Culture, Ark Culture was still very small.

In less than a year, Ark Culture had become his most important customer, so he had wanted to have dinner with Fang Xing for a long time.

However, even the film and television investment company that came to send money could not invite Fang Xing to dinner, so he naturally did not have this opportunity.

It happened to happen today, so Ke Zhengqi naturally wanted to seize this opportunity.

…

During dinner, Ke Zhengqi made a hotel reservation.

Fang Xing and several company executives went over to have dinner.

After they were almost done eating, Fang Xing signaled with his eyes that Qiao Yinghong pull Ke Zhengqi to talk about some sensitive topics.

The meal was very harmonious. After it was over, Fang Xing and Qiao Yinghong took the company car back.

in the car.

"How is it?" Fang Xing asked loudly.

Qiao Yinghong covered her mouth with her hands and replied: "Asked, Anhe asked someone to inquire, and it is true that someone wants to take over our company.

"However, our company's taxes are handled by Anhe. There are no problems with tax payment. It doesn't matter how we check."

"Do you know who he is?" Fang Xing asked.

Qiao Yinghong shook her head and replied: "Director Liu who came to our company today is just an errand boy. The matter was explained by the superiors. I will definitely not be able to find out who is behind the scenes."

Fang Xing frowned: "Then An He doesn't have enough energy."

Qiao Yinghong added: "No, it is impossible to have accurate information from the official side. However, Anhe attaches great importance to our company and asked for information from other places. It is said that several capital companies want to engage us, of course There can be no evidence for this."

Fang Xing probably guessed what was going on.

Pengcheng Capital has suffered several big losses in a row, how could it give up?

However, according to the information An He heard, it was not just Pengcheng Capital that took action this time, but also several other capital companies.

This also made Fang Xing more vigilant: "From today on, we must be more cautious about tax and contract matters, and do not give opportunities to our opponents."

Qiao Yinghong nodded vigorously: "Okay, I will emphasize this in every regular work meeting."

after awhile.

Qiao Yinghong mentioned another thing: "By the way, boss. There is something I haven't reported to you yet. Originally I thought I didn't need to bother the boss about this matter, but now it seems that I need to tell the boss."

"What's going on?" Fang Xing showed a confused expression.

Qiao Yinghong took out a document bag, opened it, took out a document, put it in Fang Xing's hand, and explained: "Some time ago, an investment company submitted an investment plan to our company."

Fang Xing glanced at the header of the investment plan. It was Dingsheng Capital.

"Invest? We don't need to invest." Fang Xing didn't understand what he meant.

Ark Culture's cash flow health is simply extraordinary in the industry.

If Ark Culture doesn't do any projects now, it can just sit back and collect money without investing at all.

"Yes, we have sufficient funds. If we don't invest in big projects, we don't need to invest at all. Therefore, I was not going to disturb the boss at the beginning with this investment plan. But now that the tax audit has happened, I am worried There is a connection here." Qiao Yinghong explained.

Fang Xing glanced at the investment plan a few times.

Dingsheng Capital wants to invest 100 million and take 40% of Ark Culture’s shares.

Since Ark Culture has only been established for more than a year, the company is not large in scale, and its projects only include two TV series produced by Fang Xing and dozens of songs.

Calculated from the current industry valuation, the valuation is not high.

Dingsheng Capital plans to invest 100 million and take 40% of the shares. From a mathematical perspective, these two figures are not problematic.

There is no premium for this investment value, and there is no deliberate price reduction.

But the problem is that Ark Culture does not need financing, and there is no problem with the capital chain.

Dingsheng Capital wants to take away 40% of Ark Culture's shares for 100 million. If this investment project is completed, Dingsheng Capital may create the most terrifying return on investment in the history of the investment industry.

Fang Xing glanced at the investment plan briefly, shook his head and said with a smile: "The person who made this investment plan is indeed a genius. If it can be done, it will be really awesome."

Qiao Yinghong added: "Boss, the person in charge of the investment project of Dingsheng Capital also came to me and said that we can discuss the details later, which probably means that we can discuss the valuation."

The meaning of this statement is also very obvious, that is, the price of 100 million is still negotiable.

If an investment company is optimistic about a potential company, it may receive a premium valuation when investing.

In other words, the investment amount of Dingsheng Capital can be negotiated, but it depends on the psychological price of both parties.

However, Fang Xing is very aware of the huge gap between the current valuation of Ark Culture and its true value.

According to the calculations in this investment plan, Ark Culture’s current valuation is 250 million.

A company that was only established for a year and a half has a valuation of 250 million.

Judging from the numbers alone, this is already very impressive.

The valuation is 250 million in one and a half years.

This means that if Fang Xing sells Ark Culture now, he can get 250 million directly, which means he will make 250 million in just over a year.

However, is Ark Culture only worth this little money?

The copyrights of all songs, movies and TV series belong to Ark Culture.

Not to mention that Dingsheng Capital wanted to use 100 million to acquire 40% of the shares, even if it increased 100 times, Fang Xing would not consider it.

Therefore, this investment plan is no different from a blank wolf.

In fact.

Dingsheng Capital is not the first investment company to want to invest in Ark Culture.

When Fang Xing participated in some activities, he often encountered senior executives from investment companies coming to say hello.

If Ark Culture wanted to raise money, companies wanting to invest could crowd the corporate headquarters.

However, these investment companies know very well that Ark Culture does not need financing at all.

Therefore, so far, Ark Culture has not yet had a second shareholder.

After what happened today.

Fang Xing also roughly guessed that the most likely reason was that Dingsheng Capital wanted to use other methods to force Ark Culture to accept investment.

actually.

For many potential companies, accepting investment is not just a question of funding.

Young companies often have many problems.

For example, the company structure is chaotic, management is chaotic, and there is a lack of external resources.

Take the matter of taxes.

If Fang Xing hadn't handed over the tax to the tax accounting firm from the beginning, something might have happened today.

If something goes wrong during today’s surprise tax inspection and Ark Culture wants to escape unscathed, what should we do?

The only option is to accept Dingsheng Capital's investment and then use Dingsheng Capital's connections to solve the matter.

…

In addition to Qiao Yinghong, Guo Keda was also in the car.

Guo Keda had been listening quietly. At this time, he handed his mobile phone to Fang Xing and said, "According to Sky Eye, Pengcheng Capital and Dingsheng Capital have cross-shareholdings."

Fang Xing saw the equity structure of Pengcheng Capital displayed on the APP, and it did include Dingsheng Capital.

Although there is no evidence to prove that Dingsheng Capital is behind what happened today, the whole thing is actually very clear.

At this moment, Fang Xing also felt unprecedented pressure.

If it were legitimate business competition, Fang Xing wouldn't be afraid, but it would be more troublesome if his opponents started to use underhanded tactics.

Although Ark Culture has unlimited potential, in the final analysis, it has no backing.

Once business competition turns from fair competition to underhanded tactics, things will become difficult to control.

"Boss, there is no way to guard against thieves for a thousand days. If the company continues to develop, it must have a background, otherwise there will be more and more similar things in the future." Qiao Yinghong reminded aloud.

Since the development of Ark Culture, her career has jumped three levels in a row and has a second spring, so she sincerely hopes that Ark Culture will get better and better.

Fang Xing nodded and replied, "I've thought about this too. It's time to choose a location for Ark Culture's headquarters."

At present, Ark Culture still works in a rented office building and does not have its own headquarters building yet.

As the company continues to expand, it will definitely be necessary to expand the company's office building.

Either rent a new office building or build a new headquarters building.

Before that, Fang Xing felt that with the current size of the company, there was no need to build a new headquarters building, and renting another floor of office building would be enough.

After what happened today, Fang Xing knew that the location of the headquarters was on the agenda.

Many regions have preferential treatment in attracting investment, and choosing a good location for the company's headquarters will be of great help to the company's future development.

However, with the current scale and funds of Ark Culture, it is still not enough to build a headquarters building. Another big project is needed to start this matter.
