Chapter 409 The Getty Family
The Getty Center Museum in Brentwood, Los Angeles, in the Santa Monica Mountains, is open.

In the 1970s, J. Paul Getty built the Malibu Museum in Malibu. After Getty's death, the museum inherited a huge estate of $750 million from Getty's will.

In the late 1980s, the Heritage Commission began construction of the Getty Centre Museum on Santa Monica Hill near Brentwood!

With the relocation of items from the Malibu Museum to the newly built Getty Museum, the Getty Center Museum officially opened to the public.

California Governor Pete Wilson, U.S. Senator Dianne Feinstein (Democratic) and other prominent California politicians attended the opening ceremony of the Getty Center Museum!

Aaron also attended with Jennifer Connelly. "The Malibu Museum is also going to be built. It will be renamed Getty Villa and will form the Getty Museum together with the Getty Centre."

Jennifer Connelly smiled. "Paul Getty was the first person in the 1950s to have assets exceeding $1 billion, the richest man in America!"

The renowned California oil family, the Getty Oil Company, is also a household name.
In 1986, ten years after Paul Getty's death, the Getty family sold Getty Oil, which was acquired by Texas (Texaco) Oil for $100 billion.

Aaron nodded. He was also wary of the Getty family's power in California. Through several generations of management, the Getty family had used their vast family assets to build a powerful political network!

"By the way, Aaron, are you really going to restore the Cathedral of St. Vibiana?"

Jennifer Connelly asked again.

"Of course, I promised Archbishop Roger Mahoney of the Archdiocese of Los Angeles, and I have already established the Anderson Charitable Foundation to donate $500 million to the restoration of St. Vibiana Cathedral!"

The restored St. Vibiana Cathedral will become a Catholic museum, which will certainly have a positive effect on enhancing Aaron's social status.

That evening, at the banquet, Aaron had a special chat with Diana Feinstein about how U.S. senators are elected every six years.
Diana Feinstein was elected in 1992 by filling the vacancy left by Peter Wilson, and was re-elected in 1994.

“Some left-wing members of the Democratic Party are unhappy with my frequent compromises to Republican votes.”

Diana Feinstein is a centrist and supports some Republican proposals.
Aaron thought for a moment, "The next election won't be until 2000, there's plenty of time."

"Or would you like to run for governor of California again?"

In 1990, Diana Feinstein ran for Governor of California as a Democratic candidate, but lost to Republican Peter Wilson.

Diane Feinstein shook her head. "Although Peter Wilson secured the Republican nomination in this year's US presidential election;"

"But Pete Wilson has no intention of running for office!"

Aaron's lips twitched. Was there any suspense left in this year's presidential election?

With the US economy developing, unemployment decreasing, and government debt reducing, who can stop Clinton given his current popularity?
"By the way, representatives from internet companies, led by Cisco CEO John Chambers, are lobbying Congress to build a new fiber optic network in the United States."

"As you know, President Clinton is very supportive of the internet industry. In the next few years, the fiber optic network in the United States will probably be as prosperous as the country's highways!"

Aaron nodded. "I understand."

Then, Aaron whispered, "Yahoo is going public on Wall Street in the next few days. If you're interested, Madam, you could buy some."

"Attractive tech stocks like Yahoo always manage to surprise you!"

Then, Aaron picked up a glass of champagne and walked toward Gordon Getty, Paul Getty's fourth son... That night, at Belair's villa.

While lying in bed, Aaron made a phone call to Lloyd Bentson Jr., asking him to visit Diana Feinstein when he had time.
Aaron supported Diana Feinstein when she first ran for U.S. Senator from California, and she was successfully re-elected. She has a good relationship with Aaron and will definitely maintain cooperation!

A short while later, after finishing the phone call, Aaron saw Jennifer Connelly, who had just finished showering, walk into the room;

Beneath the sexy, semi-transparent silk nightgown, her alluring body was faintly visible, incredibly hot.

“Aaron,” Jennifer Connelly nestled into Aaron’s arms and kissed the man.

"what happened?"

Aaron stroked the woman's breasts, asking, "Is there something you need to say?"

Jennifer Connelly laughed, "I starred in two more romantic comedies recently, but they didn't seem to do very well!"

Since starring in the hit film "My Best Friend's Wedding", Jennifer Connelly has received numerous scripts for romantic comedies.

"What's the big deal? John Singleton's 'School Conflict' was released last year, and the reviews seemed pretty good!"

It's a work about racial discrimination in American universities, and it's quite educational.

"It's alright, so I plan to take on more art films to hone my acting skills. As for commercial films, they won't be my focus."

After all, Jennifer Connelly now has Aaron as her backer, and she also owns 100 million shares of Dawn stock, so she's not short of money.

"Of course, no problem. When I have time, I'll arrange a good script for you!"

As he spoke, Aaron helped Jennifer Connelly sit on his lap and removed the woman's nightgown.

"OK, all right!"

"Next, I'm going to New York. Yahoo is going public soon, I'll go check it out."

"After that, I'll be going to London."

Aaron spoke, panting, and then tightly embraced the woman's waist!
With the arrival of April, the action thriller "Broken Arrow," directed by Chinese director John Woo and starring John Travolta, Christina Yerry, Kristen Slater, and others, was released.

Broken Arrow grossed $1550 million in its opening weekend.

Broken Arrow continues the thrilling gunfight action film genre, which is John Woo's forte. However, compared to his previous Hollywood debut, Hard Target, it is much better in terms of logic and storytelling.
Of course, audiences can still feel John Woo's personal style in the film: slow motion, close-ups of characters' faces or movements, etc., are all present.

The Houston Post: "The tense chase scenes, bullet-filled battles, plane crashes, train collisions, simulated nuclear explosions, and other big-budget scenes in Broken Arrow are incredibly realistic and give viewers an adrenaline rush!"

Just after "Broken Arrow" was released, John Woo received a new project from Dawn Universal, "Face/Off".
