Hollywood starts with a broker

After Dawn officially quoted AMC, Aaron waited for Charles Dolan's choice, after all, AMC was not that important under CVC;

On the other side, Viacom offered 8.2 billion US dollars, hoping to acquire Paramount Communications' shareholders at a premium, but QVC TV shopping network, led by Hollywood godfather Barry Diller, former CEO of Paramount Pictures, offered 9.5 billion US dollars!

Viacom Group Chairman Sumner Redstone was the first entertainment tycoon to shout the slogan "Content is King", and his emphasis on Paramount seemed to surpass Viacom itself;

In order to raise enough cash flow, Viacom turned its attention to Blockbuster, the world's largest video tape rental chain company.

In mid-August, James Jordan, the father of NBA superstar Michael Jordan, was murdered, and the news shocked the world;

James Jordan had been missing for three weeks before his body was found on the border of South Carolina. After testing, it was found that James Jordan was murdered in North Carolina!

Although the police finally determined that this was a random robbery and murder, various conspiracy theories about Michael Jordan were rampant;

The media launched various discussions surrounding Michael Jordan's family, his gambling debts, and the handling of his body.

Michael Jordan had been in trouble with gambling, from being criticized by the NBA to being photographed by reporters lingering in casinos in the early hours of the playoffs, to being exposed by drug dealer creditors for owing money and not repaying it!

Aaron knew that Michael Jordan was not far from his first retirement.

In Dawn's New York office, Aaron was holding a script submitted by a new screenwriter, Andrew Walker;

It was called "Seven", using religion as a cover to discuss the increasing depravity of human nature under the developed material civilization of modern society. The theme of the script was also very rich, involving crime, human nature, and redemption.

A series of murders are carried out based on the seven deadly sins of Catholicism - "Gluttony", "Greed", "Sloth", "Envy", "Lust", "Pride" and "Wrath";

Strong religious color, gathering the dark side of human nature!

"A very good script, send it to David Fincher to take a look. Black, religious, suspense, it is very suitable for him to direct."

Aaron instructed Aislinn Beckett, as for the unpleasant experience during the filming of "Alien 3", David Fincher was a little afraid of directing movies;

Aaron was not worried, such a good script would definitely meet David Fincher's requirements!

Moreover, Aaron had worked with him before on "Phone Booth", and of course he would not completely override his directorial power like 20th Century Fox did when filming "Alien 3";

On the contrary, Aaron would fully support David Fincher's filming process.

Midtown Manhattan, Hilton Hotel.

Aaron and Jennifer Connelly attended a cocktail party together!

"Aaron, 'Speed' has exceeded 90 million US dollars at the North American box office more than a month after its release;"

"The overseas market has been released one after another, and now it has also exceeded 50 million US dollars."

Jennifer Connelly was very excited because this was her highest-grossing film to date.

Aaron nodded. "Reality Bites" grossed almost 35 million US dollars worldwide, and it was also a work starring Jennifer Connelly this year;

"Speed" is of course excellent, but another Dawn production in the summer档, "The Mask of Zorro", has grossed 140 million US dollars at the North American box office and 180 million US dollars overseas!

Aaron kissed the girl on the face, "Now you are popular again. You just graduated from Stanford University and you have a hit movie. Isn't it great?"

Jennifer Connelly smiled, "This is all thanks to you, otherwise, I would have starred in those large-scale films like 'Two Shades of Blue';"

"I probably wouldn't have graduated from university normally!"

If she hadn't met Aaron Anderson, Jennifer Connelly would have accepted Orion's low-budget work "Two Shades of Blue" after failing the audition for "Pretty Woman";

Uma Thurman was the one who participated in the filming of "Two Shades of Blue", and she just appeared in Dawn Quentin Tarantino's "Pulp Fiction".

"Aaron, it seems that Tony Scott's movie "True Romance" was written by Quentin Tarantino, right?"

Aaron was stunned for a moment, then nodded, "It is indeed Quentin's script, are you still paying attention to this?"

Although Tony Scott is the younger brother of director Ridley Scott and has directed hit movies like "Top Gun";

However, he then successively filmed three action blockbusters starring Tom Cruise in "Days of Thunder", Kevin Costner in "Revenge", and Bruce Willis in "The Last Boy Scout", which were not as good as expected and fell into a low ebb.

Jennifer Connelly shook her head, "'True Romance' will be released in September. I met the heroine of the movie, Patricia Arquette, before and chatted with her."

"Hey, that's not all. Another action crime film "Natural Born Killers" directed by Oliver Stone is also Quentin Tarantino's script!"

On the other side, Winona Ryder and her newly acquainted friend Gwyneth Paltrow also came to the cocktail party;

Gwyneth Paltrow not only came from a family of actors, but also was the goddaughter of director Steven Spielberg. Her debut work at the age of 19 was "Hook"!

"Wow, Winona, don't you know Aaron Anderson?"

Gwyneth Paltrow pulled Winona Ryder aside, "Look, wasn't that him who just passed by?"

Winona Ryder took a look, Aaron put down his empty glass and sat on the sofa, "It's Aaron Anderson!"

一无错一首一发一内一容一在一一看!

"Introduce me, all the women in Hollywood want to know him now."

Winona Ryder raised her eyebrows, "Well, let's go over there!"

Looking at Gwyneth Paltrow's eyes, it felt like they were straight. Winona Ryder also knew that Aaron Anderson was a person who could not resist the temptation of beauty;

Gwyneth Paltrow has a good figure, is young, fashionable and beautiful. I guess Aaron Anderson can't resist her seduction, right?

Aaron Anderson, who was sitting on the sofa, found an actor who was very impressive in his memory!

The young Jennifer Aniston is indeed sexy and beautiful. "Friends" has not yet been broadcast;

Although Dawn Television has been working with Michael Crichton to develop the series "ER" through Spielberg's introduction, how could Aaron miss "Friends"?

"Good evening, Aaron!"

Winona Ryder brought Gwyneth Paltrow to Aaron's side.
