Hollywood starts with an agent

Chapter 344 No one can refuse

In the offices of Universal Pictures at Rockefeller Center in Manhattan, Aaron leaned back in his chair, talking to AMC cable television network president Johann Adams.

"Fox's ambitions are truly grand. Not only have they established the new Fox Cable News Channel, but they've also partnered with Liberty Media to create the Fox Cable Sports Network!"

Aaron smiled. Rupert Murdoch has built Sky Broadcasting in the UK and acquired satellite TV companies in Asia in recent years, not to mention his global satellite TV industry layout.

Now, it is making significant inroads into the North American cable television market.

George Adams stated, "FOX, as a newcomer among the four major commercial wireless broadcasting networks, is now betting on cable channels, hoping to further expand its television network through revenue from cable television."

“CNN, ESPN, MTV, and other cable channels are the dominant players in their respective business types, and their revenues are quite substantial!”

While terrestrial television networks certainly don't generate as much revenue as cable television networks with comparable viewership, their reach is far greater and their political propaganda significance is unparalleled.

CNN, however, has shown everyone the power and formidable nature of top-tier cable news channels.

NBC partnered with Microsoft to build the MSNBC cable news channel, and FOX is also building the FNC cable news channel in order to compete with CNN.

Evening, East Hamptons, Long Island, New York.

Inside a seaside resort villa, Sophie Marceau, having finished promoting "Braveheart," lazily sat down on the sofa!

Aaron smiled. "What, does Paramount have a lot of promotional activities planned?"

Braveheart and Universal's The Kid were released around the same time a few days ago.

"Casper" grossed $1680 million on its opening weekend, while "Braveheart" grossed $990 million on its opening weekend!
“Braveheart has received good reviews, and the promotional activities are quite frequent,” Sophie Marceau said, smoothing her hair.
Television programs, newspaper and magazine interviews, and a whole host of other activities are quite tiring.

Aaron sat down next to Sophie Marceau and kissed her. "Braveheart, the reviews are pretty good. Apart from some criticism for its fictional history, it's basically all positive!"

The Los Angeles Times: "Braveheart is a passionate and captivating three-hour historical epic."

The Chicago Sun-Times: "Mel Gibson's film is a passionate, thrilling battle epic, an ambitious movie."

"The film focuses on themes such as love, patriotism, and rebellion, thus avoiding turning it into a travel documentary about historical figures!"

The Hollywood Reporter: "Mel Gibson, as director, star, and producer of Braveheart, has turned a hopeless 13th-century Scottish miracle story of kilts into one of the most spectacular entertainments in years."

The Chicago Tribune: "This medieval epic, Braveheart, marks a personal triumph for Mel Gibson, who produced, directed, and starred the commoner William Wallace and inspired the entire Scottish army to fight against the tyrannical rule of King Edward of England."

The Washington Post: "The film boasts stunning battle scenes and the freedom to depict history!"

Film critics and newspapers have praised Mel Gibson and Braveheart.

Of course, in addition to Mel Gibson's immense success as producer, director and lead actor, Sophie Marceau, who plays Princess Isabella of France, has also seen her influence surge.
Sophie Marceau's portrayal of the French princess is dignified, elegant, charming, and stunningly beautiful, injecting a lot of soul into the film!

Sophie Marceau smiled and lay down on Aaron. "What do you think of Braveheart?"

Aaron reached out and stroked the woman's chestnut-brown hair. "I think this is a historical epic war film full of passion, politics, romance, and morality."

"It must be said that Mel Gibson demonstrated extraordinary ability in the film, successfully creating a large-scale epic about cold weapons with profound nationalist and political implications;"

"Especially at the end, the scene where William Wallace shouts 'Freedom' before being beheaded elevates the film's theme and is deeply moving!" Overall, Aaron felt that Braveheart was truly well-made. Whether it was the character development, themes and narrative, background music, costumes, or cinematography, Braveheart had done a perfect job.
Of course, Braveheart is not without its flaws. Mel Gibson's fictional love story between William Wallace and Princess Isabella is too nihilistic.

"Oh, that's a very high compliment!"

Sophie Marceau smiled slightly. "Four Weddings and a Funeral" made her a household name in Hollywood, and this "Braveheart" could really propel her to a global audience.

Immediately, Sophie Marceau wrapped her arms around the man's neck, leaned in, and kissed him.

Aaron leaned down, passionately responding to the French Rose's deep kiss, while his hands caressed the woman's sexy body!

Soon after, Aaron and Sophie Marceau took off their clothes.

On the sofa, Aaron lay on top of Sophie Marceau, feeling the woman's tenderness and passion. "Are we going to the Cannes Film Festival to promote it next?"

Sophie Marceau hugged the man tightly. "Yes, we'll be leaving soon. The Cannes Film Festival has already started, hasn't it?"

"We'll be spending one or two days at the Cannes Film Festival, and then we'll go to Edinburgh, Scotland for the film's premiere!"

It's clear that Braveheart is about to embark on its next promotional tour in Europe.

……

The next morning, Aaron woke up with Sophie Marceau, her face glowing.

"Honey, look how radiant and charming you are this year!"

“Hmm,” Sophie Marceau hummed softly, stroking Aaron’s face. “This is all thanks to you.”

Aaron smiled. "I've said it before, no one can resist a French kiss unless he's not a man."

"Are you hungry? What would you like to eat? I'll make it!"

Sophie Marceau thought for a moment, "Whatever, I'm going to take a shower first."

Aaron nodded, then got out of bed to prepare breakfast. Aaron didn't actually know much about cooking.

After Aaron finished making the egg and ham, he went to the bathroom door and found that the other person was still taking a shower.

"Sophie," Aaron pushed the door open and went in, just in time to see Sophie Marceau coming out of the bathtub, her sexy body arousing the imagination.

"Ok?"

"Yes, but there's no rush now!"

As Aaron spoke, he walked over and embraced Sophie Marceau, kissing her.

“Hmm,” Sophie Marceau was surprised for a moment, then hugged Aaron tightly and responded enthusiastically!
