Hollywood starts with an agent

Chapter 319 Market Stimulus
Elizabeth Hurley, who had just finished filming "GoldenEye," received a Golden Globe nomination for Best Supporting Actress for her role in "Forrest Gump."
It was precisely because of the popularity of "Forrest Gump" that Elizabeth Hurley finally gained a place in Hollywood!
“Aaron, this is the first time I’ve been recognized with such a prestigious award,” said the tall, sexy, and beautiful Elizabeth Hurley, excitedly hugging Aaron.

Aaron put his arm around the woman's waist, kissed her, and smiled, "Congratulations! Now a lot of people know you!"

In Dawn's works, besides Elizabeth Hurley receiving a Best Supporting Actress nomination for her role in Forrest Gump;
Uma Thurman from "Pulp Fiction" and Kirsten Dunst, the child actress from "Interview with the Vampire," were also nominated for Golden Globe Awards for Best Supporting Actress.

Elizabeth Hurley wrapped her arm around Aaron's and rubbed her 34C breasts against him, unable to hide her joy. "It's all because of you, otherwise I wouldn't have had this opportunity."

I don't know how to repay you.

Aaron, however, didn't seem to care. "You deserve it all," he said.

"With the phenomenal success of 'Forrest Gump' this year, and the upcoming 'GoldenEye' next year, your career is on the rise!"

GoldenEye was released six years after the previous film, License to Kill. Pierce Brosnan replaced Timothy Dalton as James Bond.
Furthermore, the script for "GoldenEye" underwent some changes during filming because the plot was similar to that of the currently showing "True Lies".

Elizabeth Hurley couldn't contain her excitement and pulled Aaron Anderson to the restroom upstairs in the hotel's banquet hall!

"Mmm," Aaron responded passionately to Elizabeth Hurley's hot body and passionate kiss, touching her 36C cup beneath her sexy evening gown.

"Hmm, am I really not as attractive to you as Catherine Zeta-Jones?"

Elizabeth Hurley pressed herself against the man and reached out to unbuckle Aaron's belt!

“Well, you’re fine,” Aaron said, picking up Elizabeth Hurley and sitting her on the sink…

With the announcement of the nominations for the 53rd Golden Globe Awards, Dawn is undoubtedly the biggest winner, and this year is also full of excellent films!
The two dramas launched by Dawn TV, "Emergency Room Stories" and "Friends", also saw their ratings soar.
"ER" was also nominated for a Golden Globe Award for Best Drama Series.

At the Marmont Estate Hotel in West Hollywood, Aaron and Sophie Marceau enjoy afternoon tea together.

"Luc Besson's 'Léon: The Professional' is very well made and has received high praise!"

Although "Léon: The Professional" didn't do well at the US box office, it was still a refreshing French-style Hollywood arthouse action film among film critics.

Sophie Marceau smiled. "You know, in recent years, stimulated by Hollywood movies, the production and box office of French films have continued to decline."

"In this market environment, Luc Besson was merely exploring the commercialization of film; to compete with Hollywood, one must use Hollywood methods."

"Léon: The Professional is a great start!"

Aaron took a sip of coffee. "I heard that Gaumont agreed to invest in Luc Besson's project to make a French sci-fi blockbuster, filmed and produced using the Hollywood model?"

"Yes, the investment is huge. Gaumont also partnered with Hollywood's Sony and Columbia."

"What, are you interested?"

Aaron shook his head. "Dawn has several big films in the pipeline, including action movies like 'The Rock' and 'Broken Arrow'; and special effects blockbusters like 'Twister' and 'Independence Day,' with substantial budgets!"

Sophie Marceau sighed. "Aaron, why are you always focusing on blockbuster movies these days?"

Aaron shrugged. "Dawn Group has grown significantly, with more and more employees. It's no longer the small, independent production company it used to be."

"Our massive distribution network requires supporting a large number of people. In the North American market alone, we've divided it into 32 distribution regions, each with its own distribution office."

"In addition to overseas markets, Dawn has also established international branches in the UK, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, Australia, and Japan!"

Even now, Dawn's international distribution network still lags behind the six major film studios. In Latin America, Southeast Asia, Eastern Europe, and most parts of Asia, Dawn still lacks its own distribution channels.

"Okay, it's definitely Hollywood style!"

Sophie Marceau looked at Aaron and laughed.

"You looked absolutely stunning in Braveheart!"

Aaron couldn't help but praise the other person.

Sophie Marceau shrugged. "Although Braveheart is a historical film, many of its plot points are fictional."

“I know that,” Aaron raised an eyebrow. “Isn’t the part about William Wallace falling in love with Princess Isabella of France just made up?”

After all, in real history, Princess Isabella was married into the British royal family three years after William Wallace's death;

According to Sophie Marceau, in the movie Braveheart, her character Princess Isabella not only falls in love with William Wallace, but also becomes pregnant with William Wallace's son, who is the heir to the British throne.

That's quite an imagination!

A short while later, Aaron ran into Tom Cruise and Paula Vagabond at the hotel, where they were talking to director Brian De Palma about the movie "Mission: Impossible".
Cruise/Vagra Productions' first film, Mission: Impossible, is about to begin filming, with veteran Hollywood director Brian De Palma chosen as director.

Because Tom Cruise plays the male lead, Paramount, the investor, also provided a production budget of $7000 million!

Moreover, Paramount didn't choose to collaborate with other film companies?
It's worth noting that in recent years, Paramount has opted to collaborate with other film companies on projects of this scale to share the risks.

Braveheart is a collaboration between Paramount and 20th Century Fox, with each holding the North American and international distribution rights respectively.
For "The Pursuit," Paramount and Universal were co-invested, with Paramount responsible for the North American market and Universal responsible for the international market.

It's clear that Paramount has very high expectations for Mission: Impossible, probably because they have high hopes for Tom Cruise!

“Let’s go,” Sophie Marceau kissed Aaron on the cheek, then took his arm and left the hotel.
