Hollywood starts with an agent

Chapter 436 American Secret Agents
It is common knowledge that the Sands Group plans to invest in and build the world's largest resort project, The Venetian, in Paradise, Las Vegas, which will integrate hotels, casinos, leisure, retail, dining and convention facilities.
The Venetian Resort, with a projected investment of $15 billion, is located on the Las Vegas Strip in Paradise City, on the site of the former Sands Hotel!

In the hotel bedroom, Sophie Marceau lay on top of Aaron, feeling the man's chest muscles.

"This Hong Kong director really likes to do practical effects, huh?"

Sophie Marceau and Aaron spent several days on the set of "Face/Off";
The scene where the plane overran the runway and crashed into the hotel was filmed by a tow truck pulling up the wrecked plane.

Aaron smiled. "Our producer suggested that the director use a green screen, but the director really wanted that realistic feel!"

The success of "Broken Arrow" earned John Woo recognition from the mainstream American film industry, allowing the "Face/Off" project to incorporate more of his signature style.

Sophie Marceau nodded. "You didn't invest in the Venetian Resort just to make this movie, did you?"

Aaron ran his hand through Sophie Marceau's chestnut hair. "How could that be? Sheldon Adelson has no trouble raising funds himself."

"Anyway, I have some spare cash on hand, so investing in a casino hotel in Las Vegas is no problem!"

Moreover, Aaron was very confident about the Venetian Resort, a comprehensive casino hotel. This kind of business, where large amounts of cash could be accessed at any time, was simply too good to be true.

Simple themed resort hotels like the MGM Grand, Dream Hotel, and Luxor Hotel are definitely not as attractive as The Venetian.

“Okay,” Sophie Marceau said, then hugged the man and kissed him. Aaron rolled over and landed on top of her!
A sexy and glamorous French kiss never disappoints a man, exuding a strong and alluring quality.

Sophie Marceau gasped and pinched the man on top of her on the waist. "Haven't you had enough of your time in Las Vegas?"

Aaron smiled, reveling in the woman's softness, and whispered in her ear, "It's never enough, you're so captivating."

"This trip to Las Vegas is also a vacation with you!"

“Yes, I’ve been getting busier and busier since I came to Hollywood…” Sophie Marceau said, then closed her eyes.

After Sophie Marceau returned to France, Aaron also left Las Vegas. Before leaving, he made a point of meeting with Sheldon Adelson.
After leaving Las Vegas, Aaron went to Houston because the 96-97 NBA season had started!

This summer, Houston underwent a major overhaul, with their star player Hakeem Olajuwon being traded away.
The team includes players such as Shaquille O'Neal, Charles Barkley, and Kevin Johnson.

Afterwards, Aaron arrived at the Angel Company's training base!
After several years of development, Angel International now owns 5000 acres of land in Texas and has more than 700 employees.

They have offices in Los Angeles, California; Arlington, Virginia; and in Africa and the Middle East.

"Jack, it seems like you guys are going to take things too far these days?"

In Angel International's office, Aaron stood by the window, looking down at the various training facilities in the distance.

Jack Wells chuckled. “Some people who come back from the battlefield find it hard to live a normal life;” “Besides, there are high subsidies for going to war zones, which pay much more than security work, so there are always people who want to make more money!”

For those who work as mercenaries in places like Africa and the Middle East, although it's dangerous, they certainly earn more than bodyguards back home.

“That makes sense,” Aaron nodded. Jack Wells did have a point.

By the time Aaron returned to Los Angeles, it was already Halloween!

Independence Day has grossed over $3 million in North America and $8 million worldwide.
Tornado grossed $2.4 million in North America and $5 million worldwide.
The Rock grossed $1.3 million in North America and $3.3 million worldwide.
"The Fat Professor" grossed $1.2 million in North America and $2.7 million worldwide.

Dawn has practically dominated the North American box office charts this year, and with the addition of "Ace Ventura: Pet Detective 2" in the spring, Dawn has five films that have grossed over $5 million in North America this year!
Burbank, Dawn Headquarters, Aaron's office.

"Mission: Impossible, starring Tom Cruise, grossed $1.8 million in North America and $4.5 million worldwide."

"American spy stories seem to be even more popular than 007. It might be time to develop the adaptation rights we have for the trilogy of 'The Bourne Identity,' 'The Bourne Supremacy,' and 'The Bourne Ultimatum.'"

Dawn Steele, who was standing nearby, couldn't help but make a suggestion to Aaron.

Aaron nodded. "Robert Ludlum's *Bourne Trilogy*, although the previous television adaptation wasn't very well-known;"

"But we could definitely put more effort into the movie version and get people involved in its preparation!"

Moreover, the Bourne Trilogy is all about the CIA, and everyone knows what a terrible reputation the CIA has.

If the Bourne trilogy is adapted well, it will certainly receive strong support from the CIA.

After Dawn Steele left, Aaron leaned back in his chair. The Bourne Trilogy is not easy to adapt.

The TV series version didn't generate much buzz after it aired, which isn't a good idea for the movie version.

However, Aaron wasn't in a hurry. The Bourne Trilogy could be adapted slowly, and it wasn't urgent for Dawn!

With the release of Universal's comedy film "Happy Kilmer," a low-budget sports comedy starring Adam Sandler;
The film tells the story of Kilmer, an ice hockey enthusiast with severe violent tendencies, who is kicked out of the ice hockey team by his coach. He accidentally discovers his extraordinary talent in golf and goes to participate in the Masters Tournament with a huge prize money, which leads to the following events.

A low-budget film like "Happy Kilmer" wouldn't naturally attract much attention from Aaron, but the fact that the male lead was Adam Sandler made him notice it!
After all, the comedy film "The Transfer Student" starring Adam Sandler last year received a lot of positive reviews;

"The Overaged" was produced by Universal, with a budget of $1000 million and a box office of $2500 million, receiving positive reviews.

This year's "Happy Kilmer" had a budget of $1200 million. While Adam Sandler may not become the next Jim Carrey, his range as an actor is much wider than Carrey's...
