Hollywood starts with an agent

Chapter 410 Heli Revisited
Broken Arrow earned $1100 million in its second weekend and has grossed $3200 million in 10 days.
"Broken Arrow" has received good reviews and can definitely be considered a commercially successful film.

Aaron also came to New York. On April 12, 1996, Yahoo went public. On the first day, the stock price rose from $13 to $43, and Yahoo's market value reached $8.48 million!

Aaron initially invested $600 million to purchase a 15% stake in Yahoo, and after the IPO, he still owns 12.5% ​​of Yahoo's shares.

In a villa on New York's Upper East Side, Aaron lay in the bathtub with Christina Yerry in his arms, enjoying the woman's softness!
"Honey, are you planning to have John Woo prepare 'Face/Off' right away?"

Christina Yeri asked, somewhat puzzled.

"Yes, his Hollywood works, from 'Hard Target' to 'Broken Arrow,' haven't shown enough progress?"

Aaron smiled. Although these two movies didn't generate much buzz, they were sure to make money.

"I heard that the budget for 'Face/Off' is $8000 million. Is that feasible?"

Christina Yeri still had some doubts.

John Woo's budget for "Hard Target" was only $2300 million, but it rose to $5000 million when he made "Broken Arrow".
Now, Face/Off has an even bigger cast and scale than Broken Arrow, with a budget that has increased to $8000 million!
"Yes, because 'Face/Off' will be starring the newly crowned Oscar-winning actor Nicolas Cage."

These days, Nicolas Cage's salary isn't cheap; he and John Travolta both earn over ten million dollars!
“I see,” Christina Yeri said, tilting her head back to kiss the man.

"By the way, we also heard from 'The Truman Show' that director Peter Weir has shown the script to Jim Carrey."

Jim Carrey himself is a huge fan of "The Truman Show" and would love to play Truman.

"However, he has to film 'Liar Liar' before he has time, and his $2000 million salary is also a problem!"

It's clear that Dawn Universal only budgeted $6000 million for "The Truman Show," and if director Peter Weir were to actually spend $2000 million to hire Jim Carrey, the film would be unlikely to come to fruition.

Aaron rubbed the woman in his arms and asked, "So, what does director Peter Weir himself think now?"

Christina Yerry smiled and played with the hot water in the bathtub. "What director Peter Weir means is that he really thinks Jim Carrey is a good fit for the role and is willing to wait until he finishes filming 'Liar Liar' first."

Aaron didn't seem to care much. "Let's wait and see. It shouldn't be a big problem. As long as Jim Carrey really likes the script, he'll convince his agent to lower his salary!"

The fact that Dawn invested $6000 million in "The Truman Show," a serious art film, was already beyond many people's expectations.

There's no way around it; transforming a small town to fit the scenes in the movie will cost quite a bit.

"How about it, anyone interested in collaborating with Jim Carrey?"

Aaron smiled and kissed the person in his arms.

Christina Yerry shook her head. "I'm not funny, and besides, I can't help but laugh whenever I see Jim Carrey."

"Working with him, I doubt I could even finish the filming!"

Aaron sighed, realizing that his woman had lost interest in working with Jim Carrey. It was truly frustrating.

Although everyone's attention is on Jim Carrey in his works, look at Cameron Diaz in "The Mask," who became a huge star.
If a typical Hollywood actress had the chance to work with Jim Carrey, she would be running herself ragged.
Christina Yerry turned and kissed the man behind her. "Mmm, darling, I'm different from other actresses!" "Who cares if my man is the famous Hollywood Aaron Anderson?"

"Now, if I want to make a movie, I'll take on one; if I don't want to, I won't."

Aaron chuckled, "French women are indeed lazy!"

Christina Yerry turned around, snuggled into Aaron's arms, and whispered, "Isn't there still the French Kiss?"

Well, while Sophie Marceau's ambition isn't particularly strong either, it's still stronger than Christina Yerry's.
Perhaps, after managing Victoria's Secret models, Christina Yerry has become less and less interested in acting!
The following evening, Aaron attended a ball at the JW Marriott Hotel in Midtown Manhattan.

Aaron met Michael Ovitz, the president of Disney, inside; a stark contrast to his previous high-spirited days managing CAA.
Since becoming president of Disney, Michael Ovitz has always seemed sullen.

“What a pity,” Aaron shook his head. It was hard to judge Michael Ovitz. He was selfish, arrogant, and shameless, but he was indeed capable.

Choosing to join Disney and give up his CAA career is neither right nor wrong; it's simply a choice.

"Hi, Aaron!"

Suddenly, a tall, sexy woman came over and hugged Aaron.

"Oh, it's you. Long time no see."

It turns out to be Elizabeth Hurley, the British sex symbol who hasn't been seen in a long time.

“Hmm, it’s been a long time,” Elizabeth Hurley kissed Aaron on the cheek. “You actually gave me 20 shares of Dawn stock!”

Aaron smiled. "I'll leave you with something to remember me by. You seem to be doing quite well lately?"

"I have to thank you, the role in Forrest Gump made me much more famous!"

After starring in Forrest Gump, Elizabeth Hurley became a Bond girl in MGM's GoldenEye.
Following that, Elizabeth Hurley starred alongside Jim Carrey in "The Hitman's Secret Service," which will be released this summer.

Now, Elizabeth Hurley has landed a lead role in a comedy film, Austin Powers.
It is a comedy film that is adapted and parodied based on several early 1960s 007 movies, and is satirical and exaggerated!
Shortly after, Elizabeth Hurley led Aaron to the restroom upstairs in the hotel.

After a passionate kiss, Elizabeth Hurley, disheveled, knelt down!
“Hmm, Hurley,” Aaron, leaning against the wall, reached out and stroked Elizabeth Hurley’s hair, looking at the woman in front of him in a daze.

Some time later, Elizabeth Hurley washed her face at the sink and asked, "Are you going to England? Do you need me to come with you?"

Aaron smiled and shook his head. "I'm only going there for a few days. I'll be back soon!"

“Okay,” Elizabeth Hurley said, straightening her clothes. “Wait, shall we go to my hotel together?”

Aaron nodded. "Let's go back to the ball first!"
