Real tax rate

So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 44.4% tax rate now rises to 44.6%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 0.2% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make 36,480,000 元 a year living in the region of Guangzhou, China, you will be taxed 16,211,508 元. That means that your net pay will be 20,268,492 元 per year, or 1,689,041 元 per month. Your average tax rate is 44.4% and your marginal tax rate is 45.0%. This marginal tax rate means that your immediate additional income will be taxed at this rate.
