The filming is finished.
The next job is naturally post-editing, scoring, scoring, etc.
Although Wald Pictures is very small and doesn't have much presence in Hollywood, it still has its own editing studio, with Zuke who is open to launching in person. There are experienced post-production staff, so post-production work is extremely fast.
Only a week later, the film was completed, and waiting for a release date. The speed is much faster than in Hollywood movies from the same period.
The life of hanging out, no need to explain!
As for the "movie genius Zuke" among the population, let it go with the wind.
Although cheating is cool, it is risky.
"Oh shit, it's finally finished. I will go into battle since I said nothing. I would rather spend money finding someone else."
Can make Zuke, a vampire, say the word "spend money", which shows that the director's work is not easy. "Lola Run" is the first film Zuke directed, and it is very likely to be the last directed by him.
"I, Zuke, should still be a beautiful man quietly!"
Zuke, who dreamed about a better life in the future, was suddenly awakened by a phone call.
Ding Ding Ding~~~
"Hello Mr. Wald, this is Lawyer Zhang, Wei Zhang." There was a loud noise on the phone.
"Uh..."
Hearing this, Zuke was taken aback at first, and it took a few seconds to realize who Zhang Wei was.
Isn't he just the tax avoidance lawyer he needs?
Zuke asked: "Attorney Zhang, this is Zuke Wald. Are you looking for me about the tax avoidance plan?"
Yes, we have designed your tax avoidance plan. At the same time, the "SpongeBob SquarePants" and the "Teletubbies" trademarks that you have applied for have been registered with the Copyright Bureau. If you are free, I can serve you now. "Zhang Wei said on the phone.
"Okay, I'm free right now, and we'll see you later."
Zuke hung up the phone and immediately called 'yes' repeatedly, jumped up, and waved his fists in the air.
Can you be upset?
That's "SpongeBob SquarePants" and "Teletubbies"! Dramas that are highly influential in children's fields, especially those surrounding them, are causing a lot of interest!
Two gold mines are in hand. How can Zuke remain calm?
It's not an exaggeration to say: As long as these two episodes are filmed and successfully released, Zuke will be able to eat and die in the future. By 2020, he could have billions of dollars in net worth.
Soon.
Half an hour later, lawyer Zhang Wei Zhang came to the door.
"Mr. Wald, today is March 16, 1996, and there are less than 45 days left before the final tax payment day. We must hurry up."
Zhang Wei is an elite lawyer, and his meticulous work makes Zhu Ke extremely appreciative.
Attorney Zhang, don't worry, I will cooperate fully."
Zuke attaches significant importance to avoiding taxes in a reasonable manner. Zuke's lawyer's fees and service fees will not be less. It spends a lot of money. Even if Zuke is stingy, he knows this commission cannot be saved, otherwise, problems may arise.
In the days that followed, Zhang Wei Zhang explained Zuke's tax avoidance instructions.
Zuke still understands these better. After all, he did logistics in his previous life, and he was quite sensitive to taxation.
Understanding, returning to understanding, but after listening to Zhang Wei's words, Zuke could only be speechless for a while.
"Damn the American tax agency, if I didn't do reasonable tax avoidance, I would have to pay more than 5 million U.S. dollars in taxes." Zuke cursed.
"Mr. Wald, don't get angry. If you didn't buy Wald Pictures, you would have to pay nearly 500,000 U.S. dollars in taxes. After all, you have to know that most of your net worth comes from the stock market. "Zhang Wei said slowly.
Zuke nodded.
My family understands his affairs. Zuke's current net worth amounts to nearly 30 million U.S. dollars, 75% of which comes from the stock market. The tax amount is terrifying.
"Then what should I do now to avoid taxes?"
Zuke asked.
The United States is very strict about taxation. Tax avoidance is not illegal for some people.
In fact, there is a popular saying in the United States: "Pay taxes according to the law and avoid taxes legally."
Therefore, legal tax avoidance is allowed in the United States.
"Generally speaking, reasonable tax avoidance strategies include setting up accounts overseas, making effective use of tax exemptions, setting up trust funds and family charitable funds, etc. However, considering your personal situation, Mr. Wald, and the relationship between time and money, I believe the tax avoidance method chosen for you is mainly investment and consumption. Reduce your current funds as much as possible to reduce book funds and achieve reasonable tax avoidance." Zhang Wei explained.
At the following time.
Well, for up to an hour, Zhang Wei explained in detail how to minimize taxation as much as possible.
...
The next day.
Zuke, who woke up early in the morning, contacted a real estate agency and planned to buy a property in the Burbank area.
Is used to avoid taxes and invest;
Also lived closer to the film company.
Although the Burbank area is also part of Los Angeles, it is 20 kilometers away from the city. It is mainly a gathering place for Hollywood entertainment companies. That's right, Hollywood, which is famous all over the world, has realized that there are not many film companies at all. They are all in Burbank.
(This is a fact, of the six major Hollywood film companies, only the Paramount family is in Hollywood ~ County, and the others have long moved to Burbank.)
Zuke's Wald Pictures is also located in Burbank. Out of company distance and tax avoidance considerations, Zhu Ke bought a villa in Burbank.
That's right, it's a villa.
A two-story large villa, plus a basement, has a building area of 320 square meters, and a 400-square-meter yard with lawn, swimming pool, and other facilities during the period.
A total of 4.6 million dollars were spent.
Of course, Zuke took bank loans. After all, Zuke is a traveler, knowing the US dollar will depreciate in the future.
"Since you have bought a villa, you can also buy a building for investment."
Buying a property for investment is very risky in the United States. If you choose a bad location, you may be rotten in your hands, but if you choose a good location, it will definitely be profitable.
Just so, Zuke determined that there was a place where he would definitely make a profit by buying a house.
Silicon Valley!
That's right, with rapid Internet development, Silicon Valley has created a multitude of wealth myths. Before the Internet bubble in 2000, Silicon Valley's land and real estate became more valuable!
And, now in Silicon Valley, is really not very expensive, at least not as expensive as Los Angeles and Burbank.
For US$6 million, Zuke purchased an eight-story office building in Silicon Valley. Coincidentally, it's not far from Apple's headquarters, and you can see it when you look up.
(The Apple headquarters here refers to the old Silicon Valley site. After all, many people know that Apple headquarters are in Cupertino, California.)
"This building will be called the Wald Building from now on!"
"Hahaha, I'm so talented!"
For a while, Zuke was very happy.
"Ding Dong!"
[Congratulations to the host for future information. ]
Zuke was stunned in an instant, the garbage system was silent for more than two months, and finally, the welfare system was released again. It was turned on immediately.
[News: In June 1996, MGM Films and Sony Columbia will compete for Marvel's Spider-Man film and television rights.
Fuck!
Spider-Man!
"Spider-Man 1/2/3", including "The Amazing Spider-Man", and even the restarted Spider-Man, are box office bombs, and they are even more explosive in the DVD and game markets, as well as in the surrounding authorized markets. A market of tens of billions of dollars.
The Sony Columbia in its earlier days relied on it to survive
"Spider-Man 1" has reached US$930 million at the box office. It is games and peripheral markets that have brought Colombia more than US$1 billion in profits in just one year, so Zhu Ke is not excited.
If it weren't for the system reminder, Zuke, who has been busy with his feet on the floor recently, would definitely not be able to blend in.
