Hollywood starts with an agent

Chapter 86: A Good Retirement

"Hey, Mr. Warren Beatty, you're in high spirits tonight?"

Aaron danced his way to Warren Beatty's side with a smile on his face.

Warren Beatty turned his head and saw Aaron Anderson, his expression calm. "I'm always in high spirits!"

"Really, how high?"

"Three stories high!"

Aaron laughed. "I didn't expect Mr. Warren Beatty to be so humorous. It's a pity, I heard that TriStar Pictures didn't choose you as the leading actor in Bugsy."

"Otherwise, there's another good show to watch. I heard the leading actress is the sexy actress Annette Bening;"

"The New York Post and the National Enquirer are missing some of their biggest stories again!"

Warren Beatty's face turned pale. "Aaron, don't think you can be so arrogant just because you succeeded once or twice. Hollywood is not as simple as you think."

Aaron Anderson's ridicule made him very unhappy but there was nothing he could do. Now Warren Beatty was not favored by film companies and producers.

"Oh, really?" Aaron's eyes widened. "Is Mr. Warren Beatty going to pull out his automatic rifle and shoot me like Dick Tracy did?"

"you……"

Aaron's eyes changed. "You've been making up stories about me in the newspapers these past few months, haven't you?"

"Wouldn't it be better to play with a few more women while you still have the energy? You're just a has-been loser, do you really think I don't have a temper?"

"Next time you're interviewed by a reporter, think carefully before you speak. Otherwise, I'll fight you with my entire fortune. If ten million isn't enough, I'll give it twenty million. If you don't believe me, you can try it."

"You still think I'm a small-time character. Hollywood is a place where the strong are respected and money is king!"

"Forget it, you'll enjoy your retirement from now on. If you dare to mess with me again, I promise to hire a team of lawyers to play nice with you. Is it difficult for you to go to jail for all the bad things you did?"

With that, Aaron turned and left, leaving behind a red-faced Warren Beatty, who certainly knew his own business!
Aaron was thinking that once he became powerful, the whole of Hollywood would definitely ban him.

Still want to live comfortably in retirement?
However, given Warren Beatty's scandal, there probably won't be any good roles for him.

Nicolas Cage, who had been keeping an eye on Aaron Anderson, was worried about him and was really worried that he would act impulsively after drinking.

Would you be so tempted as to beat up Warren Beatty in a bar?

"It's okay," Nicolas Cage pulled Aaron back to his seat, "Luckily you didn't do anything. You just walked over so suddenly, I didn't know what you wanted to do."

"Who knew, it was Warren Beatty over there!"

Aaron shook his head and smiled. "I'm a law-abiding citizen. How could I possibly do something illegal like this?"

"Okay, I just saw some pretty girls. Let's go over there!"

Nicolas Cage was completely worried that young people like Aaron, who had just entered society, would lose their temper.

With the arrival of Thanksgiving, "My Own Private Idaho" officially started filming in Portland. Because there were producers and directors in charge, Aaron basically didn't care much about this work.

However, after knowing that Keanu Reeves starred in the action movie "Point Break", Aaron remembered his other popular action movie "Speed"!
A bus with a bomb installed is speeding on the road. The young detective and the female passenger are trying to find a way to save the passengers on the bus.
There's a lot of action and explosions, so it's no wonder Keanu Reeves was cast. Point Break is produced by James Cameron, so it's worth the wait. "Eseline, should we register this script idea with the Writers Guild?"

Aaron spent a few days to put together the script of Speed, and then asked his assistant Etheline Beckett to register it;
After that, Aaron still needs to find a suitable screenwriter to adapt the film, as well as a director who is suitable for new-style action movies to direct it!
"Speed, the script is really interesting?"

Esther Beckett took a look at it and felt that it was quite different from the current action movies.

Aaron leaned back in his chair and said, “Action movies nowadays are all about muscular men like Sylvester Stallone, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Mel Gibson, and Bruce Willis;”

"Every punch is too weak, and the movements are too slow. The audience will get tired of watching it after a while. This is a new style action movie. I've added a lot of stunts, and the action is thrilling and exciting."

"Handsome male actors can also play this role and attract some female audiences. Not everyone likes muscular and tough guys."

Of course Aaron couldn’t say that, mainly because these tough action guys are paid well nowadays!

Especially Stallone, who is now the highest-paid actor, with $1500 million;
However, after "Terminator 2: Judgment Day" is released next year, Arnold Schwarzenegger's salary will reach this price.

"I understand," Esther Beckett nodded in agreement.

“By the way, Boss, Mr. Al Pacino recently finished filming ‘Frankie and Johnny’;”

“But he immediately joined the cast of Bugsy!”

"Got it," Aaron said, intending to cast Al Pacino as the blind officer in "Scent of a Woman";

Is it really necessary to work so hard? After "Pretty Woman," Al Pacino's scripts have been one after another, right?

“After a while, I sent the script of Scent of a Woman to his agent. This role is very challenging;”

"Compared to his gangster roles, his romantic film roles are much more interesting!"

Aaron planned to wait until after Christmas to send him the script, because "The Godfather 3" would be released at that time;

When the much-anticipated sequel failed to meet expectations and received negative reviews, Al Pacino was even less likely to turn down "Scent of a Woman."

In the evening, at a banquet at the Beverly Wilshire Hotel, Panasonic, which had just acquired MCA, held a large cocktail party and invited many Hollywood celebrities to attend.

Aaron also had an invitation card and brought Nicole Kidman with him!
Panasonic Chairman Masaharu Matsushita and President Akio Tanii were also in attendance;
Former MCA chairman and CEO Lou Wasserman and president Sidney Sheinberg will remain in office to manage MCA Worldwide.

Aaron took a sip of wine and said calmly, "Panasonic doesn't seem to be as shameless as Sony."

"Well, what does that mean?" Nicole Kidman, who was holding Aaron's arm, didn't understand.

“Almost all the top management has been retained!”

Lou Wasserman and Sidney Sheinberg, needless to say, and Universal Pictures' president of production, Tom Pollock, also stayed on;
You know, MCA's most important asset is Universal Film Group.

Look at Columbia Samsung. Although they all use American management, they are at least re-hired by Sony, right?

Nicole Kidman smiled and said, "Last time, the Colombian torch lady wore a kimono. I wonder what will appear this time?"

"It's not like Japan is taking over the Earth..."
