RISK / INNOVATION-BUSINESS TAX / 2026

Resolving RMB 10m of tax exposure in an innovative business model

I translated a novel service chain into a defensible tax and evidence model, removing a material exposure without disabling the commercial model.

01 / THE CHALLENGE

What had to be made clear

The company needed a business-real tax logic that could survive tax-authority questions and remain usable by suppliers and operations.

02 / MY ROLE

Where I carried the decision

I led the tax-risk workstream across business, technology, suppliers, legal, and external advisers, and prepared the evidence package for authority discussions.

03 / THE APPROACH

How the work moved from judgment to execution

01 Rebuilt the service chain from contracts, funds, data, deliverables, and acceptance evidence.

02 Clarified role boundaries and platformised supplier delivery records.

03 Rewrote contract and tax explanations around actual service substance.

04 Reset individual-service tax treatment and accountabilities.

05 Held structured discussions with the tax authority using a consistent evidence chain.
