Hexagonal God

Chapter 313: Water Army Online
After the swimming competition, Su Mo completed all the events for the day.

He left the swimming pool immediately after the game.

I can't stay here anymore. So many people are looking at me like that.

I can't really describe it in detail, but his eyes were like X-rays, always scanning in three directions downwards.

Su Mo felt that he had to retreat quickly, otherwise he would be in danger.

He then went to watch Hua Qianqian's game.

Hua Qianqian won first place in both the 100m and hurdles, especially in the hurdles, where she was far ahead of the second place by more than 30 meters.

Swimmer Hua Qianqian also ranked first without any competitors. Her three gold medals are all secure. After all, there are fewer outstanding female athletes than male athletes.

On the Internet, Hua Qianqian has also caused quite a stir. After all, she appeared on the recording of "The Way Home" and Su Mo praised her a lot. Coupled with her good looks, she now has hundreds of thousands of followers.

It is estimated that by the end of this sports meeting, Hua Qianqian will have become an internet celebrity with millions of fans.

In addition, Han Tiegang's javelin also successfully entered the top three in the preliminaries, but I don't know how he will perform in the finals.

After the first day of the sports meet, Su Mo booked a restaurant for dinner, and all the athletes, cheerleaders, and teachers went to have dinner.

During the meal, many classmates asked Su Mo questions about the Internet.

Su Mo didn't answer much, just told everyone that everything was fine.

But this still cannot alleviate the students' worries. After all, the trend on the Internet is getting more and more intense, and it doesn't look like everything is going well.

That night, the situation really changed.

Posts criticizing Su Mo on the Internet began to surge.

More and more people are asking the country to investigate the tax payment situation of internet celebrity associations.

It would be fine if ordinary people said it, but Fan Xueer’s sudden post surprised everyone.

"A lot of people have been discussing Su Mo with me these past few days. I still say that Su Mo is not suitable for the entertainment industry."

"To prove that I wasn't just talking nonsense, I consulted our team accountant, who gave me some basic information."

"You may not have a specific idea of ​​how much tax influencers pay. Let me explain: if the influencer and the platform have an employment relationship, their income is subject to individual income tax at a rate of 3%-45%. If it's a service relationship, they're subject to labor remuneration income tax at a rate of 20%-40%. If they establish a studio or company, they're subject to value-added tax, additional tax, individual business income tax, or corporate income tax."

"I looked at the income of some of Su Tang Entertainment's top anchors. The top ten anchors on major platforms now basically have a monthly income of over one million. If it's one million, according to the labor relationship calculation, the tax would be about 27, and the labor service relationship would be about 30."

"Su Tang Entertainment is a company, so the value-added tax and surcharges are not much, but the corporate income tax is 25%."

"Last month, Su Tang Entertainment's turnover was close to 7500 million, of which taxes were around 20 million. The platform also had to share about 40%. Their A-level anchors could get over 20%. After deducting operating costs, Su Mo actually only got about %."

"This profit margin is actually not high, and there are too many tricks that can be done. Do you believe that Su Mo will obediently pay 7500 million a month?"

"I have some understanding of Su Mo. He's very famous among the wealthy second generation in China. He and his friends spend millions on a meal, millions on a song, and hundreds of millions on a car race. He's usually surrounded by beautiful women, and fighting is commonplace. He even dares to kill people. Everyone has seen this."

"He doesn't have a high level of education, he's just a student from a second-tier university. I don't care whether you believe he'll pay taxes or not. I just don't believe it."

"So, Su Mo shouldn't enter the entertainment industry for now. He will really bring bad influence to the society. I hope our tax department can investigate this person thoroughly."

This was the second time Fan Xueer attacked Su Mo.

She didn't succeed last time, and some people thought she wouldn't make much of a splash this time either. But after she posted the article, the internet was instantly in an uproar.

Countless people commented and reposted the article, and it seemed that countless online trolls suddenly appeared.

The overwhelming criticism occupied the front pages of major portals and almost all the popular comment sections.

Even with Su Mo's current number of fans, he can only fight against the haters on equal terms.

When Su Mo learned about this situation, he realized something was wrong.

Although there were posts by Gao Xiaosong, Professor Yang, and Fan Xueer, the black tide was still too fierce.

In an instant, Su Mo seemed to have turned from a hero who bravely stood up for justice into a cancer in society.

True and false negative information emerged like mushrooms after rain.

Most of the things are just hearsay, starting with a picture and all the content is made up.

After all, there are too many photos and videos of Su Mo on the Internet now, and there are many beautiful women around him, so any random photo of him can be quite interesting.

For example, today, Su Mo was surrounded by several beauties sitting in the audience seats outside Rongwai. They were all photographed and people said that he had a chaotic private life.

Some people also dug up his high school grades, college entrance examination scores, etc., proving that he was a poor student.

There are also videos of fights, and some people even revealed that he was speeding in certain places, and drinking in groups, etc.

Although many things cannot stand up to scrutiny, there are too many people targeting him now, which has led many netizens who lack independent thinking ability and follow the crowd to think that Su Mo is an unforgivable person.

"Damn! I don't understand why so many people still admire this rich second-generation kid? Is it because he's so ruthless and dares to kill people?"

"This kind of person is a cancer to society. What contribution has he made to society? Besides drinking, racing, picking up girls, fighting, flaunting his wealth, and killing people, what else has he done?"

"That's right, he set up an internet celebrity company and hired a bunch of beautiful women, but it just made it easier for him to pick up girls. He evaded hundreds of millions in taxes, right?" "Almost. Over 70 million a month. His company has been running for several months."

"Investigate! If we don't investigate people like this, there will be no hope for our society."

"You're just a bunch of trash who just follow the crowd. How can you, who aren't even qualified to pay taxes, understand Su Mo's excellence?"

"You're the one who's washing the floor! You're as black as a coal ball, why am I still washing you?"

"Su Gou's fans are all just scammers, right? How much do they get paid for a comment?"

Amidst the tide of darkness, someone is quietly setting the pace, and those netizens who lack the ability to distinguish will be instigated and participate in it with great enthusiasm.

The situation abroad is pretty good, but the domestic forums are in a state of chaos.

Su Mo's fans defended the reputation of their idol, and the haters also fought bravely.

In almost every corner of the Internet, you can see the fierce battles between Su fans and Su haters.

On the hot search, Su Mo's tax evasion ranked first.

The second is Fan Xueer scolding Su Mo.

The third one is Su Mo’s Overlord Spear.

The fourth point is that Professor Yang suggested a strict investigation of Su Tang.

Of the ten trending searches, the first nine were related to Su Mo.

The Godfather of Rock released a new song and was directly pushed to tenth place.

After Su Mo returned home, the phone almost never stopped ringing.

Li Yunfeng called Su Mo and said with a smile, "Brother, are you feeling the pressure? Do you regret not letting the People's Daily and the Communist Youth League official Weibo define you first?"

Su Mo smiled and said, "Fortunately, I can still bear it. If I had been classified first, I wouldn't have seen so many monsters."

"That's good. I meant to ask someone to remove the trending search for you, but Xiaoyun asked me to ask for your opinion. After all, the Focus Interview is about to end. I want to see if you have any ideas."

Su Mo thought for a moment and said, "Let's wait. The popularity is too high right now. We can't just withdraw everything. Let's wait until the Focus Interview comes."

"Then you must prepare well, at least explain the matter clearly on the show."

"Don't worry, Brother Li, I've already made preparations."

"Okay, just be aware of this. Don't worry. These people can't cause any trouble. After the Focus Interview, the People's Daily also published an article."

"Yes, I know."

"When are you coming to the capital? My old man and the old man of the Jiang family both said they want you to come to their homes as a guest. They want to thank you for saving their lives."

Su Mo asked with a smile: "Are you going to give me some money so that I won't talk nonsense outside?"

"Get out of here, kid!"

Li Yunfeng laughed and scolded, "I really want to thank you, but you're participating in a sports meet right now, right? When can you spare some time?"

"Maybe in a few days. After the sports meet, I still have some things to do. It might take more than ten days."

"Okay, then I'll be waiting for you in the capital. Let's make it clear first. My family is grateful, and I want to thank you very much."

"That's a must. If you don't even thank the person who saved your life, you'd be heartless."

"You're such a good kid! You're definitely not guilty. Well, you're pretty busy right now, so I won't take up any more of your time. Give Xiaoyun a call; she's thinking of you, too."

Su Mo hung up the call with Li Yunfeng and called Jiang Yun again.

Jiang Yun called Su Mo "little brother" from the start.

Maybe they learned it from Xu Ning, these older sisters in the circle all call Su Mo like this.

"Little brother! Are you really not going to suppress the trending searches? You've become as dark as a coal ball."

Su Mo shook his head: "No, let these people make trouble. If they can slander me to death, it's their ability. Anyway, my company is not afraid of investigation."

"That's good, that's what I was worried about. If it's alright, then it's alright. The Focus Interview crew will leave tomorrow night and arrive at your place the day after tomorrow. I've made all the arrangements for the program, and some of the inappropriate clips will be edited out, so you can speak more confidently."

"Okay, I feel relieved with Sister Yun's words. Don't blame me for making a fuss when the time comes."

"It's okay, Sister Yun will take care of everything for you!"

Jiang Yun patted his chest and made a promise on the other end of the phone, then changed the subject: "Although I have made the general arrangements, the reporter interviewing you might be a little difficult to deal with. He has sharp words. Please control your temper on the show and don't lose your temper."

Su Mo laughed dumbly: "Sister Yun treats me like a child. This interview is not in Myanmar, why should I lose my temper?"

"I'm worried about you, too. After all, your performance that day still makes me shudder when I think about it. You're so brave. By the way, hurry up and come to the capital. My mom is always reading the news about you, praising you so much. She even prepared recipes and is ready to make all her specialties for you to try. She keeps nagging me about it, and I'm a little tired."

"Okay, Brother Li just told me that when I'm done with this, I'll take some time to go over and try Auntie's cooking."
