Entertainer Zheng Shuang is suspected of signing a "yin-yang contract", splitting his income to obtain "sky-high remuneration", and evading taxes, according to online reports.

What is "Yin and Yang contract", in fact "Yin and Yang contract" is a popular metaphor, not a legal concept. The main feature of the current commonly known as "yin-yang contract" is that two contracts with different amounts are signed for the same taxable behavior. Among them, the real contract amount is higher, and the fake contract amount is lower, and the fake cooperation is used as the basis for the actual tax, so as to achieve the purpose of tax evasion.
