Hollywood starts with a broker
#86 - Good retirement
"Hi, Mr. Warren Beatty, in high spirits tonight?"
Aaron glided over, a smile on his face, to Warren Beatty's side.
Warren Beatty turned his head and saw Aaron Anderson, his expression indifferent, "I'm always in high spirits!"
"Is that so? How high?"
"Three stories high!"
Aaron laughed, "I didn't expect Mr. Warren Beatty to be so humorous. It's a pity that Samsung Pictures didn't choose you as the male lead in 'Bugsy.'"
"Otherwise, there would be a good show to watch. I heard the female lead is the sexy actress Annette Bening."
"The 'New York Post' and 'National Enquirer' have lost some explosive news!"
Warren Beatty's face turned livid, "Aaron, don't think you can be so arrogant just because you've succeeded once or twice. Hollywood isn't as simple as you think."
Aaron Anderson's mockery made him unhappy, but he couldn't do anything about it. Warren Beatty was no longer favored by film companies and producers.
"Oh, really?" Aaron widened his eyes. "Don't tell me Mr. Warren Beatty is going to take out an automatic rifle like Dick Tracy and riddle me with bullets?"
"You…"
Aaron's eyes changed, "You've been writing about me in the newspapers for the past few months, haven't you?"
"While you still have the energy, wouldn't it be better to play with a few more women? You're a washed-up has-been. Do you really think I have no temper?"
"When you're interviewed by reporters in the future, you better think clearly before you speak. Otherwise, I'll use all my wealth to fight you. If ten million isn't enough, then twenty million. You can try me."
"Still treating me like a nobody? What kind of place is Hollywood? The strong are respected, and money is supreme!"
"Forget it, you should just enjoy your retirement. If you dare to provoke me again, I guarantee I'll hire a team of lawyers to play with you properly. Do you think it would be difficult to get you into prison with all your dirty deeds?"
With that, Aaron turned and left, leaving Warren Beatty with a flushed face, who of course knew his own affairs!
Aaron, on the other hand, was thinking that once he gained momentum, he would definitely blacklist him throughout Hollywood.
Still thinking of enjoying a comfortable retirement?
However, with Warren Beatty's scandals, he probably wouldn't get any good roles anyway.
Nicholas Cage, who had been paying attention to Aaron Anderson, was sweating for Aaron, really worried that Aaron would get impulsive after drinking.
Would he be unable to resist beating up Warren Beatty in the bar?
"It's a good thing," Nicholas Cage pulled Aaron back to his seat. "Luckily, you didn't make a move. I didn't know what you were going to do when you suddenly walked over."
"Who knew Warren Beatty would be there!"
Aaron shook his head, revealing a smile. "I'm a law-abiding citizen. How could I possibly do something that violates the law?"
"Okay, I just saw some beautiful girls. Let's go, let's go over there!"
Nicholas Cage was completely worried that Aaron, a young man who had just entered society, wouldn't be able to control his temper.
With Thanksgiving approaching, 'My Own Private Idaho' officially began filming in Portland. Because there were producers and directors in charge, Aaron basically didn't care much about this work.
However, after learning that Keanu Reeves had starred in the action film 'Point Break,' Aaron remembered another one of his popular action films, 'Speed!'
A bus with a bomb planted on it speeds down the highway. A young police detective and the female lead must find a way to save the passengers on the bus.
There are a lot of action and explosion scenes, no wonder they found Keanu Reeves. The producer of 'Point Break' is James Cameron, it's worth looking forward to.
"Esztherine, take this script idea to the Writers Guild to register, okay?"
Aaron spent a few days organizing the script for 'Speed' and asked his assistant, Esztherine Beckett, to register it.
After that, Aaron would also need to find a suitable screenwriter to adapt it, as well as a director who fits the new style of action films to direct it!
"'Speed,' the script is really interesting?"
Esztherine Beckett looked at it and felt that it was different from the current action films.
Aaron leaned back in his chair, "The current action films are all about Sylvester Stallone, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Mel Gibson, Bruce Willis, that kind of muscular strongman."
"Every punch is flesh, the action is slow, the audience will get tired of watching it for a long time. Mine is a new style of action film, with a lot of special effects added, the action is thrilling and exciting."
"Handsome male stars can also act, which can attract some female audiences. Not everyone likes muscular tough guys, right?"
Of course, Aaron couldn't say that the main reason was that the current action tough guys are paid highly!
Especially Stallone, who is now the highest-paid actor, at $15 million.
However, after 'Terminator 2: Judgment Day' is released next year, Arnold Schwarzenegger's salary will also reach this price.
"Understood," Esztherine Beckett nodded in agreement.
"By the way, boss, Mr. Al Pacino recently finished filming 'Frankie and Johnny.'"
"But he immediately entered the 'Bugsy' crew!"
"Got it," Aaron was planning to have Al Pacino play the blind military officer in 'Scent of a Woman.'
Does he have to work so hard? After 'Pretty Woman,' Al Pacino's scripts are coming one after another?
"In a while, send the script for 'Scent of a Woman' to his agent. This role is very challenging."
"It's much more interesting than his gangster and romance roles!"
Aaron planned to send him the script after Christmas, because 'The Godfather: Part III' would just be released then.
When this highly anticipated sequel fails to meet people's expectations and receives negative reviews, Al Pacino will be even less likely to refuse 'Scent of a Woman.'
In the evening, at a banquet at the Beverly Wilshire Hotel, Panasonic, which had just acquired MCA, held a large reception, inviting many Hollywood celebrities to attend.
Aaron also had an invitation card and specially brought Nicole Kidman along!
Panasonic Chairman Masaharu Matsushita and President Akio Tanii attended together.
Former MCA Chairman and CEO Lew Wasserman and President Sidney Sheinberg continued to stay in their positions, managing MCA Universal.
Aaron took a sip of wine and said faintly: "Panasonic's skin doesn't seem to be as thick as Sony's?"
"Huh, what do you mean?" Nicole Kidman, who was holding Aaron's arm, didn't understand.
"Almost all the senior executives are retained!"
Not to mention Lew Wasserman and Sidney Sheinberg, Universal Pictures production president Tom Pollock also stayed in his position.
You know, MCA's most important asset is Universal Pictures Group.
Look at Columbia TriStar, although they are all using American management, at least they are people Sony rehired?
Nicole Kidman smiled, "Last time, Columbia's Torch Lady put on a kimono. I wonder what will happen this time?"
"It won't be Japan occupying the Earth…"
