On April 5, the government issued two documents at the same time.
One is the approval document of the "Tax Reform Plan of the Shanghai Tax Police Bureau" and the other is the "Ethical Regulations on Integrity in Public Affairs".
The national government was very generous and agreed to all Lin Chuang's reform measures, except that the income tax rate set by Lin Chuang was changed from 25% to 30%. At the same time, the new government affairs were ordered to be fully implemented on May 1.
As for the promulgation of the "Ethical Regulations on Integrity in Public Affairs", Lin Chuang didn't think much about it. Instead, he felt that it was very necessary to promote integrity and ethics in public agencies, especially a department like the Tax Police Bureau with great power and abundant oil and water.
Less.
Lin Chuang immediately invited Li Yongcai and Liang Yuqi to the office for a meeting, and Jiang Jingfu took notes.
"Boy, the government issued two documents today. One is the tax reform plan I submitted earlier, which the government has agreed to. The other is the "Ethics Regulations on Integrity in Public Affairs."
"Let's discuss the tax reform plan first. The main contents of the tax reform plan are: first, agricultural taxation will be implemented, ten taxes and one tax rate will be implemented, and all other taxes will be abolished; second, industry and commerce will only be levied two taxes, one on the circulation link, based on sales
Business tax is levied on the price, with a tax rate of 5%; the other is income tax, with a tax rate of 30%, and other taxes are also abolished; third, unified tax payment vouchers are implemented, and any tax payment vouchers without the stamp of the tax police station are illegal. Fourth, shops implement inclusive tax payment vouchers.
The tax system, factories, and enterprises implement an audit and collection system.
You two, do you have any suggestions?”
Li Yongcai seemed very happy and said: "This plan is great. The people and people in the business community will definitely welcome it. Bureau Chief, as soon as you take action, you have earned a good reputation for our tax police station. I admire you for your humble position."
"Yes, the people and businessmen have been paying taxes for a long time, and our reputation is actually not very good. This move by the bureau will not only reduce the tax burden on the people and industry and commerce, but also block illegal channels. It echoes the "Public Service Ethics Regulations".
He is a man of great talent and humble duty." Liang Yuqi was afraid that Li Yongcai would say all his good things, so he quickly followed up and flattered him.
Lin Chuang smiled proudly, waved his hands and said: "You two, don't just talk about the New Year. If you have any suggestions for the implementation of this plan, just say it."
Li Yongcai thought for a while and said: "The bureau chief, I think we need to do three aspects of work. The first is to vigorously publicize the new tax system, using newspapers, leaflets and other forms to publicize the new tax system; the second is to intensify internal learning, and each branch office
People should be sent to study in order to quickly grasp the new plan; third, the bureau should establish a new agency to strengthen supervision of the implementation of the new tax system."
Lin Chuang thought while listening: "Li Yongcai is still very talented. These three items are indeed necessary."
"Very good. Deputy Director Liang, what about you?"
"Secretary, I agree with Deputy Director Li's opinion. In addition, I would like to add two more points. One is that the Taxation Office should further refine the new tax system, such as how to package the tax and what standards it will be based on. Another example is, how will the tax be collected from enterprises after auditing?
Tax returns, what to do if you don’t pay taxes according to regulations, etc., to facilitate the following operations. The second point is that the implementation of the new tax system will definitely make some people uncomfortable because it blocks the loopholes for them to enrich their own pockets. Therefore, for those who ignore the new tax system
There must also be standards for how to punish."
Liang Yuqi added.
Lin Chuang was very happy. These two deputy positions were still acceptable, and he had some money in his stomach.
"Very good. What you both added makes sense. I have no objection. Let's do this. First, set up an inspection office and hang it under the Secretariat. The standards of the inspection office must be high, otherwise it will not be enough to exercise the power of inspection. Therefore, I suggest that the inspection office be established.
The director of the office concurrently serves as the deputy director of the Secretariat; 2. Publicity, learning, and training are the responsibility of Deputy Director Li; 3. Desk work such as tax system refinement and internal supervision standards are the responsibility of Deputy Director Liang; 4. The sealing of tax payment vouchers
I'll be responsible for it. What do you two think?"
"no comment."
"no comment."
"Okay, let's discuss the implementation of the "Official Ethics Regulations". Deputy Director Li, you go ahead."
"I think this is a good thing. It is consistent with the original intention of the tax reform plan of the bureau. It is all for the new government to have a new look."
"Be specific."
"Yes. I think that laws and regulations are good, but I am afraid that they will become a piece of paper. How many such laws have been enacted in the Republic of China? Has it gradually become a piece of paper? For example, officials are not allowed to buy prostitutes and take concubines, but which official does not have three wives and four concubines?
?It's just a different way of saying it. I'm not called concubine, I'm called concubine.
For another example, which government does not emphasize integrity? But which government is truly honest?
Mr. Bureau, I dare not say anything to you. In fact, I and Lao Liang are not alone."
Li Yongcai was afraid that Lin Chuang would misunderstand, so he quickly followed.
"Hahaha... I don't care about discussing things as they are. You and I, as ordinary people, can't be exempt from things that have been agreed upon by convention. Just go on."
"Yes. For this reason, I believe that in order to develop a new trend of clean government in the overall situation, upper-level officials must set an example. As the saying goes, 'If you are not upright, you will not be able to do it even if you order'." Li Yongcai said.
Seeing Li Yongcai's upright and awe-inspiring look, Lin Chuang couldn't help but be in awe: "Oh, I didn't expect this person to be an upright official, but why do I not believe it so much?"
In fact, Lin Chuang knew very well that every official's words and deeds in public would be as "upright and awe-inspiring" as Li Yongcai, but there were really few who actually put this into practice.
People have many desires and their nature is private.
In the face of all kinds of temptations, who can truly remain unmoved except a saint?
"Okay, Deputy Director Li is right. If the upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked, if it is to be implemented, officials and subordinates must set an example. I will make it clear that I will never accept bribes, and I also ask you two and the overall supervision to supervise."
"The bureau leader takes the lead in setting an example, and I respect you in this humble position. I also show my attitude in this humble position. I will resolutely act in accordance with the "Ethical Regulations on Integrity in Public Affairs." If there is any violation, please be punished by national laws." Li Yongcai said solemnly.
Liang Yuqi looked at Li Yongcai and felt very strange: "Why is this greedy coward so unusual today? Is it because of the general's army? It's ridiculous, who doesn't know that the general is greedy for money?"
"Deputy Director Li, what do you think?"
Just as he was changing his thoughts, Liang Yuqi heard Lin Chuang's roll call and said quickly: "I admire the high integrity of the bureau chief and Deputy Director Li very much. I also made it clear that I will never accept bribes. Listen to his words, but also observe his actions. I am humble.
Please supervise the bureau."
"Very good." Lin Chuang smiled with satisfaction: "Today's discussion was very enjoyable, and we will follow this example from now on. Only when you speak freely can you have a smooth road of speech, and only if you have a smooth road of speech can you avoid mistakes. Deputy Director Li, the implementation of this law,
How about you take charge?"
"Yes, I will do my best in my humble position." Li Yongcai happily accepted the task.
However, no one knew that at this moment, he was so happy that the corners of his mouth on his pretendingly serious face could not help but curve...
