Hollywood starts with an agent

Chapter 379 The Colorful President
Evening, JW Marriott Hotel, Washington, D.C.

Aaron rolled off Christina Yerry and exhaled a few breaths!

"Aaron, are you going to the White House to meet with the President of the United States?"

Christina Yerry had a rosy complexion and her beautiful face exuded an alluring fragrance.

“Well, we’re going to the White House tomorrow,” Aaron said, holding Christina Yerry in his arms, though he didn’t really know what it was about.

Leon Panetta simply said that Clinton wanted to meet with him.

Christina Yerry nodded. "Dawn is going public, and it's probably related to this. Hollywood and Washington are so closely connected!"

“Maybe,” Aaron shook his head, but it’s definitely more than that; it’s probably related to TV stations like ABC and CNN.
Disney's acquisition of ABC and Time Warner's acquisition of Turner Broadcasting Network were major events that could reshape the landscape of Hollywood.

Dawn acquired Universal, but it didn't own a national television station, and it didn't know what Clinton wanted to discuss with it.
"You'll find out when you go tomorrow!"

Aaron patted Christina Yerry in his arms as he spoke, "Rest first."

"Ah."

The following day, Aaron and Leon Panetta went to the White House to meet Clinton in the Oval Office.

"Wait a minute, the President is meeting with Treasury Secretary Robert Rubin!"

In the lounge, Leon Panetta made Aaron a cup of coffee.

"Mr. President, is there something you need?"

Aaron asked.

Leon Panetta shook his head. "I don't know the specifics, but it should be related to the dawn."

"Dawn is about to go public, and after acquiring Universal, its dominant position in Hollywood cinema has become even more secure."

“The export of cultural industries has always been an important policy of the United States.”

Aaron picked up his coffee and slowly stirred it with a spoon. "Has this nothing to do with Fox News?"

Aaron's close ties with the Bush family in Texas will certainly have some influence.

Leon Panetta chuckled. "That's a free economic activity, what does it have to do with anything?"

Aaron shook his head. "This is the closest Dawn has ever come to the news station. FNC will be a formidable rival to CNN in the future."

"Moreover, without Ted Turner as host, CNN's future is uncertain!"

Relying on that group of profit-driven Jews?
A short while later, a staff member came in to report.

“That’s enough, Aaron,” Leon Panetta then led Aaron to the president’s office.

In the corridor, the two encountered a young woman who was looking in the direction she had come from when she came out of the president's office!

Leon Panetta frowned and shook his head slightly.

Aaron noticed the other person's expression, of course. "What's wrong?"

"Oh it's all right."

Who was that woman just now?

"Just a White House intern named Monica Lewinsky, who joined this year!"

Aaron paused for a moment, then suddenly realized, and couldn't help but say, "It seems the President of the United States really has a lot of free time."

"Life in the White House is also very colorful."

Leon Panetta chuckled. "Just a recent college graduate here for an internship!"

Aaron sighed. "Don't forget, I'm from Hollywood, I've seen all kinds of women. But I'm also the President of the United States, playing these kinds of games in the Oval Office, it's certainly exciting enough." "However, it seems you're all used to these things!"

Leon Panetta smiled without saying a word, while Aaron, of course, couldn't be bothered with such things—that was Clinton's nature.

Aaron arrived at the Oval Office just as Clinton came out of the restroom.

"Good afternoon, Aaron!"

Clinton shook hands with Aaron and then invited Aaron to sit down.

"Good afternoon, Mr. President," Aaron said. Luckily, the other person had washed his hands; otherwise, he wouldn't have dared to shake hands with this seemingly easy-going person.

"Aaron, is there any problem with Dawn going public?"

Aaron shook his head. "It's going very smoothly. Dawn is in Hollywood now, which is pretty good!"

Clinton laughed. "Aaron, Dawn isn't just good, it's practically invincible!"

"In terms of movies alone, you are the king of Hollywood."

Aaron shrugged. "The profits from the film itself aren't enough; there's also the upstream and downstream supply chain, the consumer goods market, and so on."

"Even in terms of television broadcasting networks, Dawn still lags behind!"

Not to mention comparing it to Disney and Time Warner, Viacom's annual revenue is also higher than Dawn's.

"Take it slow. Now that you have the foundation of Universal Pictures and the support of Universal Studios, I believe it won't be long before you explode in popularity."

"hope so!"

"Does Universal have a movie called 'The President of the United States' going to be released next month?"

Aaron thought for a moment and nodded. "It was developed in collaboration between Universal and Sony Columbia. Sony is the distributor in North America, and Universal is only responsible for the international market!"

The movie Clinton mentioned, "The President of the United States," is a drama film directed by Rob Ryan and starring Michael Douglas, Annette Bening, Martin Sheen, and others.

"Recently, the US economy has developed rapidly. Last year, Mr. Greenspan was concerned that the US economy was overheating and, in order to prevent inflation, the Federal Reserve raised interest rates."

"The interest rate hikes have now stopped!"

Alan Greenspan, the Federal Reserve Chairman, has already served two terms, and barring any unforeseen circumstances, Clinton will certainly appoint him for a third term next year.

"As you know, my approval rating has dropped somewhat recently due to some international and domestic developments."

"I was wondering if you could develop a positive-energy film about the President of the United States?"

This year, major events occurred in the United States, such as the Oklahoma City bombing and San Diego veterans taking to the streets in tanks.
Internationally, there are issues such as US-Japan trade and the US-China Taiwan Strait crisis.

Aaron inquired, "Develop a movie where the protagonist is the President of the United States?"

Clinton nodded. "The President of the United States needs a kind, brave, righteous, and fearless hero!"

As for "The President of the United States," which will be released next month, it can be considered a love story about a president, and Clinton is not very satisfied with it.

Aaron tapped the table. "We'll start preparations at Global as soon as possible, but with the presidential election next year, we probably won't be able to make it in time."

"It won't be released until the year after next at the earliest."

"That's alright. The US economy is continuing to improve, and I still have a good chance of being re-elected next year!"

"That's good." Aaron also believed that with the current economic growth in the United States, the continuous decline in the unemployment rate, and Clinton's high approval rating.

Clinton smiled. "Also, Aaron, the Washington Post Group wants to strengthen its partnership with the Dawn Group."

"I am very optimistic about the future of Dawn!"
