Chapter 443 India's Most Beautiful Woman
"Hi boss!"

After leaving the party, Link got into the van, where his new female assistant, Aishwarya Rai, opened a folder and reported to him in English with a slight curry accent.

Aishwarya Rai told him that Richard Fox had called twenty minutes earlier, wanting to talk to him about the Batman sequel.

Quentin Tarantino, Ben Affleck, and Liu Xiaoli also called, saying they wanted to talk to him.

Before Aishwarya could finish speaking, Link picked up the phone and called Liu Xiaoli to ask her what was wrong.

During his work hours, his girlfriends rarely call to bother him; this is a habit he's developed over a long period. Liu Xiaoli's sudden call indicates that something important has come up.

If Lewinsky were here, she would have reported Liu Xiaoli's matter first. Aishwarya was a naive girl and didn't notice this.

After the call connected, Liu Xiaoli said it was nothing. Monica had been having abdominal pain for a while, and everyone thought she was about to give birth, so they called to let him know. It was just a misunderstanding. The doctor checked her over and said there was no problem. It was just that Monica had done too much prenatal yoga in the morning, which had upset the baby. She would be fine after resting for a while.

"It's good that you're alright. I'll come see you this weekend. Also, tell Monica not to exercise too much every day. It's not too late to start exercising after the baby is born."

Link gave his instructions.

“I understand. I’ll keep an eye on her and make sure she doesn’t get too vain. Also, I’ve been reading the newspapers lately and I’ve noticed a lot of negative news about you, including news about the pregnancies of some of us. Those media outlets are trying to make a fuss about this to hurt the box office of ‘The Rock.’ You need to be careful.”

"Sister Xiaoli, I understand. When you're at home, you should rest more and not think about work all day. I can handle the company's affairs. No one can take advantage of me."

"I understand. I just read the newspaper and watch TV every day, and I don't care about work."

After the call ended, Link called Quentin and Ben Affleck back. Quentin told him that post-production on Kill Bill was complete and they were going to hold a preview screening on Friday, asking if he could come.

Link said he would try his best to go.

When Ben Affleck asked him if he would direct a sequel to "The Batman," he said he wanted to play Batman again.

Link replied that things were not yet finalized and it was difficult to say for sure; he would be notified once it was settled.

"Aishwarya, please give me a bottle of water."

"Oh, okay, boss."

Aishwarya Rai paused for a few seconds before reacting, then took a bottle of purified water from the refrigerator and handed it to him.

Link took a sip and continued calling Richard Fox back.

After the release of "Batman Forever" during last summer's box office season, Warner Bros. began preparing for a sequel and brought in Link to direct it again.

Link offered a base salary of $1000 million plus 15% of the global box office, or 20% of the North American box office plus 15% of the overseas box office.

Warner Bros. Pictures disagreed and wanted to discuss it further.

Link didn't have time to discuss it; he had four film projects on his plate, and if Warner Bros. wasn't willing, he would find someone else.

As a result, the sequel was delayed.

Richard Fox called this time, indicating that he was willing to accept an offer of '1000 million base salary + 15% of the global box office'.

Hopefully, he can finish filming the movie before the end of the year, and Warner Bros. plans to release it next summer.

“Richard, that’s impossible. After I finished filming 007, my next movie is in the works. I’m going to film a Disney movie at the end of the year, and I won’t have time to film any other movies until March next year. If you want me to make a movie, I can finish the sequel by the end of next year at the earliest.”

While he was on the phone, his assistant Aishwarya sat motionless opposite him with her knees together, occasionally glancing up at him with a mixture of restraint and curiosity.

If Lewinsky were here at this moment, she would definitely lean against him and give him a massage, or take out a folder to make notes for him at any time, or squat on the ground to serve him when he needs it.

Aishwarya is new here and doesn't know anything, so she needs more guidance.

“The end of next year? That’s too late, Link. Could you film the Batman sequel earlier? Releasing the two movies back-to-back would be better at the box office,” Richard Fox asked. Link shook his head and said no. “The next one is a guessing game, and I’m filming a Disney movie at the end of the year. Both of these movies are in development, so there’s no way to add them.”

"Okay, I'll talk to my colleagues at the company again."

After the call ended, Link put away his phone and looked at his female assistant, Aishwarya Rai, who had become reserved again. He was somewhat curious about this female assistant.

Aishwarya was the new assistant Lewinsky chose for him before he stepped down. In addition to Aishwarya, there were two other assistants. The three of them were responsible for his life, work, communications, film crew and other matters.

Aishwarya Rai is from India. She is 23 years old, 170 cm tall, and weighs 60 kg. She is a woman with a full bust and wide hips. She participated in the 44th Miss World pageant held in South Africa in 94 and won the title.
She later became a model and actress, and was dubbed 'India's First Beauty' by international media.

I came to the United States at the beginning of the year to develop my career and filmed two shampoo commercials. In March, I saw a job posting from Guessing Movies and submitted my resume on a whim.

Just when she thought she had failed to find a job and was preparing to return to India, she received a call from the HR of Guessing Movies. After an interview, she was hired and, after more than two months of training, became one of Link's temporary assistants. She is currently on probation.

She had no prior experience as an assistant and didn't know how to serve her boss well, so she did a very rough job in that area.

If it weren't for her beautiful appearance, tall and voluptuous figure, which made people more tolerant of her, she would have had a hard time passing her probation period.

"Aishwarya, I heard you've worked as a model and actress. What made you think of submitting your resume to Guess the Movies?"

Link crossed his legs and looked the girl up and down, asking her a question.

Aishwarya wore the company's most common black blazer skirt with a white inner layer, nude stockings, and mid-heeled shoes. Because of her delicate and three-dimensional features and rounded figure, this outfit really enhanced her appearance.

Hearing his question, Aishwarya straightened her back, and the curves of her white inner lining became even more pronounced. "Boss, I heard that Guess Movies offers good benefits and stable employment."

"That's true, so that's the main reason you applied for this job?"

Link laughed.

Aishwarya has big eyes and long eyelashes that look like two small fans when she blinks. She hesitated for a few seconds before saying...

"Not entirely. My career goal was to become a movie star. After coming to the United States, I saw more opportunities, but I also knew that it was not easy for a foreigner to establish himself in Hollywood."

My friends told me that Guess Guess Movies is the most powerful entertainment company in Hollywood, possessing the most resources in the film industry. They said that if I could become an employee of Guess Guess Movies, I'd be more likely to be noticed by their producers or directors and gain access to resources. So, I'm thinking of giving it a try.

Link nodded slightly, understanding her thoughts. Being an assistant wasn't her goal; her aim was to gain access to film and television resources through her job at Guessing Pictures, and then use those resources to become a movie star.

She wasn't the only one in Guess What Film Industry with this idea; many beautiful women and handsome men were also trying to use this method to acquire resources.

"Your physical appearance is indeed quite good."

Link looked her up and down a few times. "If there's a suitable role for you in one of the company's movies, you can give it a try."

"Boss, am I really sure I can do this?"

Aishwarya opened her eyes wide in surprise, her blue-green pupils sparkling.

"The premise is that you have to do your current job well. If you can't stay, you naturally won't be able to enjoy the company's resources."

"Boss, I understand. I will definitely do this job well."

Aishwarya smiled slightly, a very sweet smile.

Link smiled gently and continued to look through the documents, occasionally asking about her family situation, relationship status, and any difficulties she was facing in the United States, in order to ease the awkwardness between them.

Once the two people become familiar with each other, working together will become easier and smoother.
