Chapter 17

The film is finished.

The next work is naturally post editing, music, music and so on.

Although Wald pictures is very small and has little sense of existence in Hollywood, it still has its own editing studio. There are Zhuke who started the business in person and senior post production personnel. Therefore, the post production work is extremely fast.

Just a week later, the film was finished, waiting for the release date. It's much faster than Hollywood movies of the same period.

Open life, no need to explain!

As for the movie genius of the crowd, let it go with the wind.

Cheating is great, but it's risky.

"Oh, damn, it's finally finished. After that, I said I would not ask myself to fight. I would rather spend money to find someone else."

It can be seen that the director's work is not easy if he can make the vampire "spend money"《 "Lola Run" is the first film that Zucker completed as a director, and it is likely to be the last film directed by himself.

"I'd better be a beautiful man quietly!"

Zhuke, who is imagining a better life in the future, is suddenly awakened by a phone call.

Ding Ding Ding~~~

"How do you do, Mr. ward? I'm Mr. Zhang Weizhang." There was a sound on the phone.

"Er..."

Smell speech, Zhu Ke is a Leng at first, full passed a few seconds just reaction come over, who is Zhang Wei?

He's his own tax lawyer.

"Lawyer Zhang, this is Jack Wald. Are you looking for me about the tax avoidance plan?" he asked

"Yes, we have designed your tax avoidance scheme. Meanwhile, the SpongeBob and Teletubbies you applied for have been registered in the Copyright Bureau. If you are free, I can come to serve you now. " Zhang Wei said on the phone.

"Well, well, I'm free now. I'll see you later."

After he hung up, he immediately called "yes" and jumped up, waving his fist in the air.

Can we not be happy?

That's SpongeBob and Teletubbies! In the field of children, very influential drama, especially in the surrounding areas, is very crazy!

How can Zhuke keep calm when two gold mines are in hand?

It's no exaggeration to say: as long as these two dramas are shot and successfully released, Zhuke will be able to eat and die in the future, and he will easily have billions of dollars in wealth by 2020.

Soon.

Half an hour later, Lawyer Zhang Weizhang came to the door.

"Mr. Wald, today is March 16, 1996. There are less than 45 days to go before the last tax day. We should seize the time."

Zhang Wei is an elite lawyer. He works meticulously, which is highly appreciated by Zhu Ke.

"Don't worry, Lawyer Zhang. I will cooperate with you."

In terms of reasonable tax avoidance, Zhuke attaches great importance to it. The lawyer's fee and service fee that should be spent are not less than a cent. It costs a lot of money. Even if Zhuke is being stingy, he knows that the commission can't be saved, otherwise it will cause problems.

In the following time, Lawyer Zhang Weizhang elaborated the tax avoidance explanation to Zhuke in detail.

For these, Zhuke still has a relatively clear understanding. After all, he worked in logistics in his last life, and he is quite sensitive to taxation.

Understanding is understanding, but after listening to Zhang Wei's words, Zhuke still can't help a moment of astonishment.

"Damn American tax authorities, if I don't avoid taxes reasonably, I will have to pay more than $5 million in taxes." Chuckles.

"Mr. Wald, don't get angry. If you didn't buy Wald pictures, it's estimated that you would have to pay nearly $500000 more in taxes. After all, you need to know that most of your wealth comes from the stock market." Zhang Wei said slowly.

Zucker nodded.

My family knows about my family. Now, 75% of Zhuke's nearly $30 million fortune comes from the stock market. That tax is really terrible.

"What can I do now to avoid taxes reasonably?"

Asked Zucker hastily.

When it comes to tax avoidance in the United States, where tax censorship is very strict, surely some people think it is not illegal?

In fact, there is a popular saying in the United States, that is, "pay taxes according to law, avoid taxes legally.".

So in the United States, tax avoidance is legal.

"Generally speaking, reasonable tax avoidance methods mainly include setting up accounts overseas, making good use of gift tax exemption, setting up trust funds and family charitable funds, etc., but considering Mr. Wald's personal situation and the relationship of time, the tax avoidance methods I choose for you are mainly investment and consumption. Reduce your working capital as much as possible, so as to reduce the book capital and achieve the purpose of reasonable tax avoidance. " Zhang Wei said.

In the following time.

Well, as long as an hour, Zhang Wei elaborated on how to reasonably avoid taxes.

......

the second day.

Early in the morning, Zhuke contacted a real estate agency and planned to buy a real estate in Burbank.

First, it is used for tax avoidance and investment;

Secondly, I live close to the film company.

Although the Burbank area is also subordinate to Los Angeles, it is 20 kilometers away from the city. It is mainly the gathering place of many entertainment companies in Hollywood. Yes, Hollywood is famous all over the world. In fact, there are few film companies in Burbank.

(it's a fact that paramount is the only one of the six major companies in Hollywood. The others have already moved to Burbank.)

Zucker's Wald pictures is also located in the Burbank area. Because of the company's distance and tax avoidance, Zhu Ke bought a villa in Burbank.

Yes, the villa.

The two-story villa, plus a basement, has a construction area of 320 square meters, and a courtyard of 400 square meters, with lawn, swimming pool and other facilities.

The total cost was $4.6 million.

Of course, Zucker takes bank loans. After all, Zucker is a passer-by and knows that the US dollar will depreciate more and more in the future.

"Now that you have bought a villa, you can also buy a building for investment."

Buying a house for investment is a very risky thing in the United States. If you choose a bad location, it will be rotten in your hands. However, if you choose a good location, it will definitely be a profitable business.

Just as it happens, Zhuke is sure that there is a place where buying a house is absolutely profitable.

Silicon Valley!

Yes, with the vigorous development of the Internet, Silicon Valley has created another myth of wealth. Before the 2000 Internet bubble, Silicon Valley's land and property are becoming more and more valuable.

What's more, Silicon Valley is not very expensive, at least much cheaper than Los Angeles and Burbank.

For $6 million, Zucker built an eight story office building on the edge of Silicon Valley. Coincidentally, it's not far from Apple headquarters. You can see it when you look up.

(the apple headquarters here refers to the site of Silicon Valley. After all, many people know that the current apple headquarters is in Cupertino, California.)

"From now on, this building will be called the Wald building!"

"Ha ha ha, I'm so talented!"

For a moment, Zhuke was very happy.

"Ding Dong!"

Congratulations to the host for a piece of future information

The garbage system has been silent for more than two months. Finally, it's back to welfare. Now it's on.

[news: in June 1996, MGM and Sony Columbia will fight for the film and television copyright of Marvel's spider man

what the fuck!

Spiderman!

Spiderman 1 / 2 / 3, including "extraordinary Spiderman" and even the rebooted Spiderman are box office blockbusters. Moreover, in the DVD and game market and the surrounding licensing market, they are even more popular, involving tens of billions of dollars in the market.

Sony Columbia lived on it

"Spider man 1" has reached 930 million US dollars at the box office, and its games and surrounding markets have brought more than 1 billion US dollars to Colombia in just one year.

If it wasn't for the system's reminder, Zhuke, who has been busy recently, will certainly not be able to get involved.

Sorry, it's a little late today. I'm really busy today. Sorry, everyone.
