Chinese officials have ordered “X-Men” actor Fan Bingbing to pay $130 million in taxes and fines. The move ends the mystery over her disappearance from public view three months ago. Fan Bingbing is one of China’s most famous actors. In 2016, Forbes listed her as one of the highest paid female actors in the world. China’s state news agency Xinhua reported that Fan would not be investigated for the crime of tax evasion as long as she pays the taxes, fines and late fees of almost 900 million yuan, about $130 million. The Xinhua report said Fan avoided taxes by making a $20-million secret performance contract for the Chinese film “Unbreakable Spirit.” It is a common custom in Chinese show business for actors to make one private contract with high pay and another public contract showing much lower pay. The report said the investigation serves as a warning to all show business performers in China.
