Chapter 55 Tax Payment List

"I am aware of the online rumors and am on my way to report them to the police. I have acted with integrity and honesty. Whoever is spreading rumors and slandering me behind my back, I will definitely take legal action to the end!"

At the same time as he posted this Weibo post, Xiao Qingfeng was already on his way to the police station!

Fortunately, his predecessor was clean-living and had no financial problems, which is why he was so confident.

With Xiao Qingfeng's statement released, the internet erupted once again.

When it comes to tax issues, almost no one in the entertainment industry is absolutely clean.

So even though Xiao Qingfeng issued a statement, most netizens just thought he was bluffing.

Even Xiao Qingfeng's fans dared not speak up for him at this time. Now, Xia Luan's fans and Jing Chenxi's fans have finally found an outlet for their anger online, and they are making crazy sarcastic remarks.

Among them were many online trolls hired by Lin Fei, who relentlessly attacked Xiao Qingfeng online.

Even some neutral fans, when faced with the issue of celebrities evading taxes, immediately launch verbal attacks against them, regardless of whether the matter is true or false.

As for whether the insult was wrong, that's another story. Even if it was wrong, so what? Who can find themselves again?

However, half an hour later, Xiao Qingfeng posted a second Weibo post!

The Weibo post contained no text, but rather two photos: the first was a photo of the gate of the police station in Hiyori Ward, Kyoto, and the second was a receipt for the approval of the case.

Soon, Xiao Qingfeng's Weibo post was wildly reposted by netizens!

Is Xiao Qingfeng really that tough?

Does he really dare to call the police?

In the past, some celebrities who were reported for tax evasion threatened to call the police, but without exception, all of them made a lot of noise but did little. None of them actually called the police, and in the end, nothing came of it.

Xiao Qingfeng's actions were undoubtedly unexpected by everyone.

But Xia Luan and Jing Chenxi's fans didn't care about any of that and continued to flood Xiao Qingfeng's Weibo account with comments.

"Xiao Qingfeng is just putting on a show. So what if a case is filed? Who knows if there's something fishy going on!"

"Don't think you can clear your name like this. This is what happens when you offend Xixi."

"Xiao Qingfeng, you clown, do you think you can get away with this? Dream on!"

"There must be some shady deal behind this, that's why they dared to call the police so arrogantly."

The online trolls hired by Lin Fei filled the comment section with all sorts of vulgar and offensive language.

"Xiao Qingfeng, just wait until you're completely ruined. This is just the beginning!"

"Evading taxes and then feigning innocence—utterly shameless!"

Some uninformed bystanders were also swept up in this frenzied atmosphere and joined in the criticism.

"There's no good in the entertainment industry, and Xiao Qingfeng is no exception!"

"Stop struggling, just confess obediently, and stand at attention when you're going to be beaten!"

The entire internet seemed to have become a battlefield filled with malice, with Xiao Qingfeng's Weibo account being flooded with endless insults and abuse.

However, Xiao Qingfeng's fans are also trying to defend him, but their voices are insignificant in the face of this surging tide.

Two hours later!

Xiao Qingfeng has released his bank statements and tax information!

The document clearly shows his financial situation over the past three years, with every income and tax payment recorded in great detail.

Many celebrities in the entertainment industry sometimes take on private jobs behind their company's back. The management company is aware of this, but as long as it's not too outrageous, the management company won't interfere too much.

However, Xiao Qingfeng's bank statements show that his only income over the past three years has come from Phoenix Media, with no other transactions.

When this solid evidence is presented to netizens, any rumors and slanders will crumble on their own.

Xiao Qingfeng's staunch fans are now emboldened and have launched a counterattack online!

"Open your eyes and take a good look. Qingfeng has always been innocent. What do you haters have to say now?"

"Aren't those trolls feeling the sting of their faces now? They should come out and apologize!"

The previously vocal haters fell silent, and Jing Chenxi and Xia Luan's fans also quieted down and stopped making noise.

Lin Fei's hired online army is still struggling to hold on, but in the face of reality, their efforts seem so weak and powerless.

For a time, Xiao Qingfeng dominated all the trending topics on the internet.

Xiao Qingfeng, a breath of fresh air in the entertainment industry.

[With fame comes trouble. Who exactly did Xiao Qingfeng offend?]

The internet is not a lawless zone; those who slander and spread rumors should be severely punished!

...

After the incident, Xia Luan kept a close eye on the trend of public opinion on the internet.

Just as I guessed, Xiao Qingfeng had no way of evading taxes.

Lin Fei, however, was getting anxious. As the son of the vice chairman of Phoenix Media, he had witnessed too many disgusting and dirty things in the entertainment industry.

Those so-called celebrities appear glamorous and full of positive energy in public, but behind the scenes, nine and a half out of ten are only after profit and are full of despicable and immoral people.

He thought Xiao Qingfeng must be the same, but he never expected that there would actually be such an honest person as Xiao Qingfeng in the entertainment industry.

He finally understood why, despite both being members of the Qingluan Peak group, it was Xia Luan who became incredibly popular, not Xiao Qingfeng.

In terms of physique and appearance, Xiao Qingfeng is definitely in the top tier in the entertainment industry.

The reason he's not popular is because he's too honest. It would be a miracle if an honest person became popular in the entertainment industry.

Online discussions about Xiao Qingfeng's tax evasion continue, and everyone is waiting for an official statement.

At 3:10 PM, amidst the anticipation of netizens, the Yangchao District Public Security Bureau finally released a statement regarding the incident.

Recently, the allegations against singer Xiao Qingfeng regarding tax evasion have attracted widespread attention. Following a thorough investigation, the following statement is hereby issued:

First, after a comprehensive review of Xiao Qingfeng's financial situation, tax records, and other relevant information, it has been confirmed that Xiao Qingfeng has not engaged in any illegal tax evasion. Therefore, we hereby clear Mr. Xiao Qingfeng's name and restore his innocence.

Secondly, regarding the instigator of this malicious rumor that Xiao Qingfeng evaded taxes, we have successfully identified and apprehended the account owner, Li. Li, without possessing any genuine evidence, spread rumors online, causing significant damage to Mr. Xiao Qingfeng's reputation and seriously disrupting public order. Currently, the case is under further investigation, and we will deal with Li's illegal actions seriously in accordance with the law.

The internet is not a lawless zone. Any attempt to harm the legitimate rights and interests of others through spreading rumors, defamation, or other means will be punished by law. At the same time, we hope that netizens will remain rational and objective when facing various online information, avoid blindly following trends, and work together to create a clean and healthy online environment.

Yangchao District Public Security Bureau

This official announcement has definitively settled the matter!

The slander and defamation against Xiao Qingfeng did not cause him to fall into depravity; instead, it allowed netizens to see his noble character of remaining untainted by the mud.

Undoubtedly, this time, Xiao Qingfeng turned misfortune into blessing, his popularity not only did not decline but increased, and he gained another wave of casual fans.

But Xiao Qingfeng wasn't happy, because he knew very well that the account owner was just a nobody, and the real mastermind was definitely someone else.

The problem is that I'm not strong enough right now. The only thing that can go head-to-head with capital is even stronger capital, and I'm still too weak.

After interrogation, it was revealed that Li was merely a scapegoat. He admitted that he was a fan of the Qingluan Peak group and mistakenly believed that Xiao Qingfeng had disbanded the group, which led him to act extremely irrationally out of love turned to hate.

When the results were announced, public opinion was in uproar once again!
