Hollywood starts with a broker

Hong Kong, the Peninsula Hotel.

Golden Harvest specially arranged a grand banquet for Aaron Anderson, inviting some big names in Hong Kong cinema to attend!

Jackie Chan, who had rushed back from the set, was pulled aside by Raymond Chow and Leonard Ho and instructed, "That is Aaron Anderson, the boss of Hollywood's Dawn Film Company;"

"Also considered Hollywood's youngest movie mogul!"

"The Oscar winner for Best Picture, 'The Silence of the Lambs,' and the year's box office champion, 'Ghost,' were both distributed by him;"

"This year's Hollywood box office hits, 'Indecent Proposal' and 'Sleepless in Seattle,' were also invested in and distributed by Dawn;"

"Since Aaron Anderson's debut, his works have consistently been blockbusters."

Jackie Chan glanced over there; it was indeed a very young foreigner, with a charming and sexy young Asian woman by his side. "Was he the one who helped sell 'Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles' for a high price when he was an agent before?"

Leonard Ho nodded, "Yes, he earned hundreds of millions of dollars in just three years;"

"From an entertainment agent, he has become a pivotal movie company boss in Hollywood. We recommended you to him, and Dawn is willing to cooperate with Golden Harvest to film a movie;"

"To be filmed in Hollywood, the director, male lead, and other behind-the-scenes personnel will be assembled by us. He will personally give opinions on the script, filming a Hollywood-style action-comedy!"

On the other side, Aaron was chatting with Ms. Hsu Feng, the head of Tomson Films, who was the investor in 'Farewell My Concubine'.

"I've seen the sample copy of 'Farewell My Concubine,' and it's very good. I believe it will be a sensation at the Cannes Film Festival next year!"

Aaron, of course, understood the distribution model for this type of art film. Participating in various film festivals and events to enhance its reputation was all for the upcoming theatrical release.

"Yes, 'Farewell My Concubine' will be released in Hong Kong on January 1st next year."

Hsu Feng explained, after all, whether it could be released in mainland China depended on the film's influence!

Currently, works from mainland China generally take the Hong Kong route when participating in film festivals abroad, just like Director Zhang Yimou's 'Ju Dou' and 'Raise the Red Lantern' were sent for selection in the name of Hong Kong.

Aaron's interest in 'Farewell My Concubine' was actually very low, as it was a low-budget Chinese-language art film.

Even European art films didn't receive much attention from Aaron, let alone Asian ones. It was only because it was a Chinese-language film that he inquired about it.

Tomson Films is a subsidiary of Tomson Group, a real estate company. Aaron knew about Tomson's future property in Shanghai, Tomson Riviera!

Subsequently, Raymond Chow brought Jackie Chan to meet Aaron and introduced Jackie Chan to Aaron.

At the same time, Aaron also met several beautiful Hong Kong actresses.

On the sofa in the lounge area of the hall, Raymond Chow suddenly asked, "Is this beautiful Japanese lady also an actress?"

Aaron smiled, "Norika Fujiwara is Japan's beauty pageant winner this year, so she's just starting out. She has some contracts with Daiei Film Company in Japan!"

Raymond Chow understood, "Ms. Norika Fujiwara could come to Hong Kong to film some works and accumulate some experience;"

"Ms. Norika Fujiwara has a beautiful appearance and a very good figure, suitable for development in the entertainment industry."

Norika Fujiwara, sitting next to Aaron, was a little moved when she heard this. She definitely wanted to enter the industry, but she didn't have any resources.

"We'll see about that later," Aaron wouldn't care about these trivial matters.

"By the way, Dawn is preparing to buy several of Jackie Chan's movies for distribution in the United States!"

Since they had already decided to develop the movie 'Rumble in the Bronx,' Dawn would, of course, have to buy several of Jackie Chan's kung fu movies to show.

When Jackie Chan became famous, some older action movies would also make money at the North American box office.

"That's no problem. Dawn can buy a few to test the waters."

Raymond Chow didn't object and even supported it. It could not only promote Jackie Chan but also generate revenue. It was still very difficult to promote Chinese-language films to the United States now.

John Woo's 'The Killer' and 'Hard Boiled' had extremely small release scales in Hollywood. No one knew the creators, and no distribution company was willing to take over.

Kung fu movies like 'Police Story 3: Super Cop' and 'Armour of God II: Operation Condor' would definitely make money at that time!

"Yes, you can prepare Jackie Chan's movies as soon as possible. I'll have someone modify them to suit American tastes;"

"In the movie, you can highlight Jackie Chan's kung fu comedy elements and thrilling action scenes. Hollywood has a sense of novelty towards kung fu movies!"

Aaron gave the other party advice again.

"Don't worry, we'll prepare as soon as possible. The team will go to the United States at that time."

Raymond Chow knew Aaron Anderson's abilities and vision.

Aaron nodded and then patted Norika Fujiwara, who was next to him, "I'm going to the restroom!"

This private banquet held by Golden Harvest attracted many female stars, which naturally attracted many Hong Kong tycoons.

Without exception, they all want to have a one-night stand!

After leaving the restroom, Aaron noticed a woman with a cold and glamorous temperament, a tall figure, and a gorgeous, ethereal presence, smoking at the end of the corridor!

"Beauty, can I borrow a light?"

Aaron also put a cigarette in his mouth and approached her.

"Ah, sure," the woman picked up a lighter from the side and handed it over.

Aaron took a puff of smoke, "I'm Aaron Anderson, an American!"

"I know you, Mr. Anderson. My agent told us that you are a Hollywood tycoon, the youngest movie mogul;"

"I'm Joey Wong, from Taipei!"

Aaron nodded and looked at her, "I actually know you. Do you remember the Sitges International Fantastic Film Festival in Spain before?"

Joey Wong won the Best Actress award for 'A Chinese Ghost Story III'!

"Oh, did Mr. Anderson also go?"

Joey Wong was a little surprised.

Aaron nodded, "I also watched 'A Chinese Ghost Story III' at that time. Your appearance was very tragic and beautiful, and the image of a resentful and mournful long-haired ghost was impressive;"

"You are already tall and stunningly beautiful. The unique temperament paired with the beautiful ancient costume style is hard to forget!"

"Thank you, I have many period films, and not all of them are fantasy roles," Joey Wong smiled.

Aaron put out the cigarette in his hand, "Perhaps, you can consider developing in Hollywood. Next, I and Golden Harvest will cooperate on an action-comedy movie. I think you are quite suitable!"

"Go to Hollywood?" After hearing this, Joey Wong's heartbeat accelerated directly.

Aaron shrugged, "At least, you can give it a try!"
