Chapter 397: Chapter 224: The High Position Offered by the CIA

“Clap clap clap clap…”
After a round of opening remarks, warm applause arose from below.
Once the applause had died down, David gestured to the staff operating the big screen. Imdiately, the screen displayed the rankings of tax achievents.
Previously, the dissolution of the Rodrigozki Group had resulted in the confiscation of $277 million in tax assets. Coupled with the proceeds of the eight major heads and the cri syndicates’ paynts within the jurisdiction during this period, the Western Suburb Branch’s total revenue for the assessnt period reached $1.13 billion.
This $1.13 billion ranked third in the tax achievent chart among all the major branches nationwide. The Queens District Branch in New York ca in second with $1.26 billion.
The Manhattan Branch ranked first with $1.7 billion.
“As you can see, our Western Suburbs Branch’s total tax achievent has now climbed to third place, an incredible feat. In the next assessnt period, I hope we can reach the number one spot. That will be a glory belonging to our entire Western Suburb Branch!”
In actuality, the word “incredible” used by David was sowhat of an understatent. Before he took over the Western Suburb Branch, the tax achievent for an assessnt period was only $40 to $50 million, and the ranking was outside the top 20 nationwide.
Now, not only had the ranking soared by more than a dozen places, but the tax achievent had also increased by more than twentyfold, a feat that would not be exaggerated even if described as miraculous!
“Alright, let’s take a look at the individual tax achievent leaderboard!”
As he finished speaking, the screen imdiately changed to display the individual leaderboard. However, David was mildly surprised to find that, after such a long ti without following this list, the top two spots were still occupied by familiar faces.
Brown Soros and Bellamy Hardy.
The forr, Brown Soros, currently topped the list with an individual tax achievent of $168 million, while the latter, Bellamy Hardy, was in second place with $133 million.
It was unexpected that, after losing to him in the Deification Plan, these two hadn’t fallen into obscurity; instead, they maintained their montum as tax collection zealots.
Of course, this was because David had not attributed the taxes he collected to himself during this assessnt period. Otherwise, he could have squeezed these two into second and third place, becoming the most dazzling figure on the tax achievent board!
But upon further reflection, with his current status and position, he didn’t really need the tax achievent board to boost his reputation; he was already the brightest star in the tax bureau system.
As for Brown Soros and Bellamy Hardy, although they were also stars of the tax bureau, they were not on the sa level as him in terms of status or prestige.
If David were to compare himself with these two now, it would be sowhat beneath him.
…
Due to David’s intentional allocation of more tax achievents to the likes of Nisen Bakesimmons, they too ranked 11th, 15th, and 18th on the individual tax achievent board this assessnt period. The team mbers from the Lake District, having basked in David’s reflected glory, also made it into the top 30.
The inspectors under the Chief Tax Officer also benefitted, achieving comndable results.
After praising these individuals and distributing the acquired public funds, the assessnt period eting concluded.
“Alright, I hope everyone continues to work hard in the new assessnt period. The eting is adjourned!”
As he finished speaking, the inspectors gradually stood up and orderly left the eting hall until eventually, only David, Hakim, Lewis, Keanu, and other senior executives remained.
David signaled for them all to gather round and asked, “The Oscars ceremony is happening tomorrow. Is everything prepared?”
“My departnt is ready.”
“My departnt is ready too.”
“Everything is fine on my end.”
All replied in unison.
David nodded and said, “Good, since that’s the case, then let’s go big tomorrow night!”
Hearing this, everyone’s anticipation grew.
The Oscars ceremony was not only a focal point of nationwide attention, but it was also broadcast in over 200 countries and regions around the globe.
And what kind of reaction would it provoke if the tax bureau stepped in tomorrow?
It would likely cause a global sensation!
…
Back in his office, David picked up his phone and dialed Deputy Director Donald’s number. With such a major operation at hand, he definitely needed to first communicate with the senior managent at the Washington D.C. Headquarters.
“David? I was just about to call you. The White House has passed on a ssage: the President is very satisfied with your performance in your first assessnt period since taking office, and he hopes that you will continue to excel!”
As soon as the call connected, Donald’s jovial voice ca through.
David wasn’t overly surprised. With his astonishing collection of $1.1 billion in taxes upon taking office, it would have been odd if the President weren’t satisfied. He replied, “I will, Deputy Director Donald.”
“Oh, by the way, you called , so there must be sothing on your mind, right?”
“Yes, it’s about the Hollywood tax audit operation. My bureau has been preparing for a while now, and I plan to start tomorrow!”
“Tomorrow? Sure thing, go ahead!”
Donald was unaware of David’s intention to initiate action during the Oscars ceremony and agreed without a second thought.
“That’s the thing, Deputy Director Donald. The Oscars ceremony is tomorrow night, and I plan to act during the ceremony!”
In his office at the Washington D.C. Headquarters, Donald was montarily taken aback upon hearing this. He didn’t follow entertainnt news closely and was unaware that tomorrow was the Oscars. But that didn’t an he didn’t understand the Oscars’ influence. He said with a serious tone, “David, the Oscars ceremony is a global spectacle watched by the world. If you make your move during the ceremony, the impact would be global…”
