Chapter 313 You’re finished Dumb Mason
The entrance to the IRS in Los Angeles.
Seeing the appearance of the Maison Legal Department team, a group of media immediately gathered around with microphones in hand, wanting to know some specific information about the conversation between the two parties.
However, Lackroy and others did not discuss the reason with David at all, and they could not tell the media anything. They could only shut up and stay silent, and then got into the car.
Bellagio Hotel, here has become the foothold of the Maison legal team.
After Lackroy and his party returned to a suite in the hotel, they immediately asked: "What do you think?"
"I think he hasn't mastered much about us yet."
"I think so too."
"..."
Although they didn't get much information from David from the conversation just now, but from the words Judging from their demeanor, all four of them believed that David did not have much control over them at the moment.
In fact, Lackluwa also thought so, and the answers from the four people made him feel more at ease, but then he seemed to remember something again and said: "Even if he doesn't know too much about us now, but This guy's methods are extraordinary. Just in case, I think we have to put some 'little tails' away. Think about what the problem is and arrange for someone to deal with it."
The four Wilburs nodded, and then each took out their mobile phones and deployed them.
At the Los Angeles Internal Revenue Service, David was not idle either. He made several forms based on the information obtained from the Amazon Legal Department, and then called Simon, Nissen, Bucky and the others. Come in.
“Choose some smart auditors and go to various states to conduct unannounced visits to Amazon’s factories, scientific research centers, and warehouses, and then connect them with the local government’s data and give me these data. Come back!”
“Got it”
The three people took the form and immediately turned around and left.
......
In the following days, because the Los Angeles Internal Revenue Service was secretly investigating according to David's instructions, it became low-key, and there was no big news. outgoing.
As for the media and major social platforms, heated discussions on this matter are still continuing.
And Weiruan, Guge, Oracle... these major manufacturers are also observing the development of the matter intently, in order to make countermeasures as soon as possible.
As for the Freemasons, they are still seeking the president's amnesty for the Sackler family, trying to deal a blow to David.
But unfortunately, David is no longer fighting alone.
Because the Angsa Group has made it clear that they want to use him as a tool to weaken Freemasonry.
And now David is intensively targeting the Dumb Amazon Group. Naturally, this group of people will not let the Freemasonry distract David with the amnesty issue, so they will resist it forcefully. The Freemasons put pressure on the White House.
Seeing this result, the Freemasons were naturally gnashing their teeth with anger. However, due to the fact that the mute Amazon was under investigation, they had to temporarily give up the idea of amnesty and turn to this matter. Made some deployments.
Although Jeff Bess is not a Utahn or a member of the Masonic Group, there is a large amount of Utah capital holdings behind this company.
As a giant company with a market value of nearly two trillion, such a company is also very important to the Masonic Group. Naturally, they cannot just watch this company be sanctioned.
Otherwise, this may cause a domino effect, causing their Masonic position in the American economy to be shaken.
The time soon came to September 15th.
“Hello everyone, today is the 11th day since the IRS announced that it will investigate Amazon. The Los Angeles IRS should still be in the investigation stage, and there is still no news. Let's see what happens next..."
At the gate of the Los Angeles Internal Revenue Service, a large number of media were still stationed to report.
At the same time, there was a knock on the door of the director's office. After receiving David's signal, Nissenbakisimmons and the other three walked in energetically holding documents.
“BOSS, according to your request, I formed an investigation team and launched investigations in Ohio, Vermont, Alabama... these states, we found that Cincinnati, Ohio, Montpelier, Vermont, and... the instruments and equipment in the Maison Scientific Research Center in these places did not really meet the requirements of the local government. In many places, they only reached half of the targets. However, due to their economic problems, If the indicators are enough, the local government will turn a blind eye."
Simmons said as he put the obtained documents in front of David.
And David also took it and looked at it carefully.
After some inspection, a smile appeared on his lips.
Simons is indeed right. The equipment indicators of scientific research centers in places like Amazon and the indicators given by local governments are indeed insufficient.
In other words, they are actually violating the policy of value-added tax reduction.
"Director, according to your request, I also formed an investigation team to conduct investigations in Nevada, Alabama... these states, and I confirmed that their cities, Montgomery City, and Alabama... Vegas...the scale of factories and warehouses in these places is not large enough to receive tax subsidies, and their equipment and facilities do not meet the conditions for value-added tax reduction, and they also rely on economic indicators. Come up!”
Bucky also handed over the information he had investigated.
After some inspection, David's smile became even brighter, because as Bucky said, the Amazon warehouses and factories in these areas were indeed violating tax policies.
“Boss, the Amazon’s ‘hidden tax’ you asked me to investigate was really a chore, but I was lucky enough to live up to my mission. After dozens of branch offices cooperated in the investigation, I finally 366 merchants have obtained confessions and data lists, which proves that Amazon is indeed charging users a 'hidden tax'. This time they are dead!"
Nissen vomited bitterly at first! , and then handed over the document, which was thicker than Simon Sparky and the two of them.
David's eyes lit up after hearing this, and he immediately checked the results.
“Haha, it really is like that!”
About twenty minutes later, after checking the general contents of the file, he smiled harder than AK.
Illegal tax policies only take advantage of the government and the IRS, but this hidden tax takes advantage of all Amazon consumers.
Don’t look at it. Many of these consumers are now swinging between supporting and opposing the investigation of Amazon.
But if it really infringes on their interests, then these people will not be so easy to talk to. Even if they support Dumb Amazon, they may have to switch sides.
After all, you dumb Amazon is currently under investigation by the IRS, and we are still on your side to help you support.
But it's better for you, the mute Mason. You have been treating us like leeks for so many years, and you still treat us like fools without telling us. How can you bear this?
“BOSS, what should we do next?”
Listening to Simmons’ words, David put away his thoughts, picked up his phone and dialed Donald’s number, and then said : "Deputy Director Donald, we have collected relevant materials about Amazon. Should we go to them directly to negotiate fines, or what should we do?" Companies are different.
This company has not paid a dime in taxes for so many years. Instead, it takes advantage of them every year. The General Administration has obviously hated this guy for a long time, so He didn't know if there were any other penalties imposed by the General Administration.
"So fast?"
Donald on the other end of the phone was a little surprised after hearing this.
After all, Amazon is a company with a market value of nearly two trillion, and its business scope spans the world. He thought that even if David wanted to investigate, it would take at least two months, but he did not expect this It was done in just 11 days.
“Yes, this is the result of our working day and night.”
In fact, what David wants to say more is, is it okay to be unhappy with a plug-in on your body?
"Then what exactly did you get? Did Amazon violate the rules in obtaining tax subsidies, or did they violate regulations in terms of value-added tax reduction?"
"The tax subsidy violated regulations, and the value-added tax reduction also violated regulations. It's against the rules... Oh, by the way, during our investigation, we also discovered a major violation of regulations by Duma Amazon!"
David almost forgot about the 'hidden tax' and didn't follow up on it! Donald gave too much away.
“Are there any major violations? What are they?”
“Over the years, Amazon has been secretly charging users a fee, which can be called a 'hidden tax' '..."
At the General Administration, after listening to David's long description, Donald was stunned for a while, but when he came back to his senses, his expression was suddenly shocked.
Because according to what David said, once Amazon is proven to have been secretly collecting hidden taxes from users for so many years, it will be criticized immediately.
When the time comes, let alone the Wall Street Journal standing up to speak for Amazon, I am afraid that even if the White House stands up, it will be drowned in the saliva of the people!
"Are you serious about what you said? Do you have any actual evidence?"
To be sure, Donald still had to confirm it again.
"Of course, it is in my hands now."
"Okay, fax it to me immediately. After I read it, I will discuss it with the director and the others and then give you instructions."< br>
“Okay.”
After ending the call, David immediately asked Keppel to fax the Amazon hidden tax documents.
As for the General Administration, after receiving the document, Donald immediately looked at it carefully, and as he read the contents line by line, his face became happy.
Finally, he directly picked up the document and pushed out the door, came to his secretary's office, and ordered: "Inform the chief advisor and the chief advisor to come to the conference room."
Soon, After receiving the news, Obadiah and Vertonghen and other senior executives filed into the conference room. Looking at the rosy-faced Donald, many people also looked suspicious.
What happened?
However, some people have made some guesses, such as Obadiah, who looked at Donald and asked: "Donald, has the Los Angeles Internal Revenue Service made any progress in the investigation of the mute Amazon?"
Donald nodded and said: "Yes, Director, the Los Angeles Internal Revenue Service's investigation against Amazon has indeed come to fruition. According to David, Amazon has indeed illegally obtained government tax subsidies and illegally obtained added value. Tax reduction matters.”
"Really Donald?"
"Deputy Director Donald, has Director David obtained any actual evidence?"
"Yes, has the evidence been obtained?"
After hearing this, the senior executives at the scene also began to breathe rapidly, and they all asked questions one after another.
“According to what David said, he already has substantial evidence!”
"Great, you really deserve to be Director David!"
"Then what are you waiting for? Take down this dumb Amazon immediately and make them spit out double the taxes they owe us over the years!"
“…”
Once they heard the evidence, a group of senior officials couldn’t wait to announce that they would take down Duma Xun to relieve the hatred they had harbored for so many years.
"But this is nothing. David discovered something more important while investigating the mute Amazon. I think it is necessary to share it with you."
"What is it Donald?"
Vertonghen, who had always been fascinated, was also interested.
“According to David, Amazon has been secretly charging users a hidden tax for so many years...”
In the conference room, everyone was listening quietly and carefully. Donald's words.
After listening to these words, everyone’s brains felt like they had been hit hard, because they had never thought that a giant company like Amazon was actually doing this kind of thing behind its back. The capitalist's operation of harvesting leeks is too bold.
"No, Donald, is Amazon really charging hidden taxes from users?"
Obadiah was the first to come to his senses and asked.
Donald didn't explain too much. He pushed the fax document he just received and said, "This is the information that David investigated. Please take a look at it, Director."< br>
Hidden taxes were so important that even Vertonghen couldn't sit still. He immediately stood up from his chair and came to Obadiah and leaned down to check.
The other senior executives at the scene also followed closely and gathered around to check.
The conference room once again started to smell like needles.
Twenty minutes passed quickly. As the last page of the document was turned, Obadiah couldn't help but take a breath.
This dumb Amazon has really been charging hidden taxes from users for so many years.
But they just accept it and actually promote it with various slogans such as subsidizing users and saving users money. This capitalist’s methods are really slippery!
But having said that, if this document and the hidden tax are exposed, you will suffer the consequences of Dumb Mason!
