On May 31, according to foreign reports, France's financial prosecutor yilaien·luoli (Eliane Houlette) on Sunday in the "Europe's first radio station" (Europe 1 radio) said in an interview last week at Google France headquarters of the tax in a sudden inspection, in order to prevent the leak, investigators are prohibited from using the Internet, stick with the Word text processing system, and changed its name to Google, "Tulip" (Tulip).

Lori said, "we have decided to never say ' Google ' the word, and another name for the company. Online we have been in this case nearly a year's time. ”

France police and prosecutors announced Tuesday against Google on "malicious evasion" and part of the money-laundering investigation, raided the company at its headquarters in Paris. France financial prosecutor's Office, said the RAID was against corruption in the Police Department and 25 information technology with the assistance of its experts, staff of about 100 people involved in the investigation. France has called on Google to pay to escape some 1.6 billion euros (about US $ 1.8 billion) in taxes.

"We use computers at work, but almost exclusively use the Word text processing system. Given Google's activity, top secret is the key to the investigation. Use the ' Tulip ' term is because Google Netherlands subsidiary, is the core of the corporate tax structure, "Lori said.

Ireland subsidiary

Judge the Prosecutor's Office said in a statement on Tuesday: "the search stems from a preliminary investigation opened June 16, 2015 because France before financial regulators received complaints, accusing Google France branch not only malicious evasion and to money-laundering. The objective of the survey was to determine Google Ireland whether the company is in France permanently established and this has never been in France engaged in any business activities of the company is in breach of the legal regulations in the area of financial regulation, particularly corporate income tax and value added tax provisions. ”

Up to now, the Google spokesman AER·weini (Al Verney) declined to comment on the report.

Lori said, "even though Google France employs nearly 700 people, mainly contacts with advertisers. Although Google says Ireland subsidiary responsible for the work, but it belongs to the permanent institution of tax avoidance. Google in fact in France without any taxpayers. ”

Criminal investigations in France requires a certain amount of time, this case is no exception. Lori said, "we have collected a lot of evidence, an estimated number of TB bytes. Analysis of such a huge amount of data may take a few months, I hope it's not for several years. "Investigators of the technical means" finite ", may need about 200,000 euros worth of special software to accelerate their processes effectively.

5月31日消息，据外电报道，法国金融检察官伊莱恩·罗莉特（Eliane Houlette）周日在接受“欧洲第一电台”（Europe 1 radio）采访时表示，在上周对谷歌法国总部的税务突检中，为防止泄密，调查人员被禁止使用互联网，坚持使用Word文字处理系统，并把谷歌改名为“郁金香”（Tulip）。

罗莉特表示，“我们决定从不说出‘谷歌’一词，并给这家公司起了另一个名字。我们在线下从事本案已有近一年的时间。”

法国警方和检察官上周二宣布针对谷歌“恶意逃税”和洗钱进行的调查的部分内容，突击检查了谷歌设在巴黎的总部。法国金融检察官办公室表示，此次突击检查是在警方反贪污部门和25名信息技术专家的协助下进行的，参与调查的人员大约为100人。法国已呼吁谷歌支付逃避的大约16亿欧元（约合18亿美元）税款。

“我们在工作中使用计算机，但是几乎只使用Word文字处理系统。考虑到谷歌的行为活动，高度机密是此次调查的关键。之所以使用‘郁金香’一词，是因为谷歌荷兰子公司是该公司税收结构的核心，”罗莉特说。

爱尔兰子公司

法官检察官办公室在上周二的声明中表示：“此次搜查源自2015年6月16日开启的一项初步调查，因为法国金融监管部门之前接到投诉，指控谷歌法国分公司不仅恶意逃税而且有组织地洗钱。调查的目的是确定谷歌爱尔兰公司是否是在法国永久设立的以及这家从未在法国境内从事过任何经营活动的公司是否违反了金融监管方面的法律法规，尤其是企业所得税和增值税方面的规定。”

截止目前，谷歌发言人阿尔·维尼（Al Verney）对此报道未予置评。

罗莉特表示，“尽管谷歌法国雇佣了近700名员工，这些员工主要与广告主进行往来。虽然谷歌说爱尔兰子公司负责工作，但它属于常设避税机构。谷歌事实上在法国未纳任何税。”

刑事调查在法国需要一定的时间，本案也不会例外。罗莉特说，“我们已经收集了大量的证据，估计有数TB字节。分析这么庞大的数据可能需要数月时间，我希望不是数年。”调查人员的技术手段“有限”，可能需要价值约20万欧元的特别有效的软件来加速他们的进程。
