The probability is small and the winning amount is huge, which inevitably arouses everyone's questions. Is there a behind-the-scenes operation?Why did the winner buy 50,000 bets at one time?
Previously,Jiangxi Provincial Fucai Center Propaganda Department staff in an interview with ** had said that the lottery game does not have an insider,Can not reveal the specific identity of the winner.

On the morning of the 7th, China Fucai service *** customer service said, "Buy 50,000 notes to win 2The behavior of 200 million yuan, there is no insider, you can rest assured. At the same time, the customer service also confirmed to reporters that this time in 2The grand prize of 200 million yuan is for one person.
According to the Modern Express, the "choose seven in seven" jackpot bonus is usually fixed at 10,000 yuan, and after the start of the limit rules, the actual prize of a single bet that night is 4,475 yuan. There are reports that for this situation where the prize money for a single note lottery is reduced to less than 10,000 yuan due to risk control, the winner is receiving 2There will be no tax on the total prize of more than 200 million yuan.

The staff member said that Jiangxi lottery players "spent 100,000 to buy lottery in 2After the "200 million" incident fermented, some taxpayers had doubts about whether the winners needed to pay taxes, because the tax law only stipulated "once". "As for this 'one-time' income, whether it refers to the (total) income of winning the lottery or the winning income of one bet, there is indeed no corresponding regulation. ”
She went on to say that the lottery player 2Whether the winning amount of 200 million yuan needs to be taxed is indeed more controversial, and at present, the Jiangxi tax department has not given a specific answer.
According to Yicai, Shi Zhengwen, director of the Finance and Taxation Law Research Center of China University of Political Science and Law, said that the implementation regulations of the individual income tax law are clear, and the income of individuals winning the lottery and winning the lottery is accidental income, and the 20% tax rate is applicable. However, due to the lottery income in addition to the payment of bonuses,Most of the income is invested in the development of public welfare,Therefore, the state encourages the development of the lottery industry,Give a one-time winning income of no more than 10,000 yuan temporary exemption from individual income preferential policy.
The above-mentioned Jiangxi lottery players are a one-time purchase of the same lottery ticket with the same number at a site, which is a one-time investment behavior with clear personal subjective meaning, so the total income of the one-time winning is 2more than 200 million yuan, which obviously exceeds the upper limit of 10,000 yuan of one-time income of tax incentives, so 20% of the individual income tax needs to be paid. One-time winnings cannot be equated to one-entry ticket earnings. Shi Zhengwen said.
Tian Binbin, a professor at the School of Finance and Taxation of Zhongnan University of Economics and Law, said that the total income obtained by a person buying the same lottery ticket at the same time,In principle, it is an income,It should be a one-time income 2.More than 200 million yuan to pay taxes.

2. Can the winner's previous purchase records and ticket numbers be announced?
