What's pretty fascinating is that this time, Bloomberg revealed that Haidilao co-founder Shu Ping received a tax bill. Public records show that she first disclosed her Singaporean citizenship in 2018, and an overseas trust was established before Haidilao's IPO that same year. In September this year, the couple's trust company sold off Haidilao shares, cashing out approximately HK$2.75 billion. The company issued a statement saying it was due to the shareholders' personal funding needs. Tencent News cited previous institutional estimates, suggesting the couple might need to pay an additional HK$1.9 billion in taxes this round. This might indirectly indicate that China's recent tax crackdown on the wealthy focuses on tax residency status, not just nationality.
