Hollywood starts with an agent

Chapter 441 This is Little Sweetie

After talking with Leon Panetta, Aaron left the Bitmore Millennium Hotel and went to Universal Square in Hollywood.

With Christmas approaching, the whole street is filled with a festive atmosphere, and the fireworks display at Universal Studios will continue until the New Year.

In December, the temperature in Los Angeles at night is quite low. Aaron Anderson, walking on the main street of the square, tightened his wool coat.

Suddenly, as he passed a street performer, Aaron stopped!

A beautiful young girl was singing Madonna's Latin pop song "Beautiful Island," and Aaron stopped to listen.

The girl is full of youthful energy, with a beautiful face and a sexy figure!
Aaron recognized her immediately: wasn't that Britney Spears? The future pop star, performing on the street—she probably hadn't even debuted yet, right?
After the song ended, the girl waited for tips from the onlookers. In the box in front of her, there were some coins and banknotes scattered about.

Aaron pulled out his wallet and threw down a wad of $20 bills!
"Ah," this stack had at least a dozen sheets, more than all the other sheets the girl had combined. The girl looked up at Aaron and gave him a sweet smile.

"Thank you, sir!"

Aaron nodded and smiled at the girl. "You sing very well. If possible, I'd like to learn more about you."

As he spoke, Aaron looked around and pointed to a nearby coffee shop. "I'll wait for you there. Come find me when you're ready!"

"Excuse me, sir, are you an agent?"

"No, I work for a record company."

"Really?" The girl's face clearly showed excitement.

Aaron nodded. "Let's go over there, have some coffee and chat, it'll be warmer there!"

“Okay, I’ll be quick,” the girl said, and quickly began to pack.

Aaron went straight to the nearby coffee shop and ordered some things.

A few minutes later, the girl walked in carrying a large guitar. "Sir!"

"Sit down," Aaron said, gesturing for the other person to sit. "Have something to drink first; the food will be here soon."

"What is your name?"

"Ah, my name is Britney Spears!"

Britney Spears, holding her coffee, looked at Aaron nervously, her eyes darting away.

Aaron Anderson is only 27 years old now. He is young and handsome, but he has always held a high position and has a strong presence. He is extremely attractive to young girls like him!

“Britney Spears, um,” Aaron nodded, “has she signed with a record label?”

"not yet."

Aaron smiled unconsciously, looking at the girl in front of him, "Well then, tell me about your situation first."

"I am 16 years old and was born in a small town in Kentwood, Louisiana. I have loved performing and singing since I was a child."

"She has acted in Broadway stage plays and participated in Disney's 'New Mickey Mouse Club,' recording two episodes..." It turns out she was a member of the Mickey Mouse Club, and Britney Spears has indeed not yet signed with a record company;
Isn't this a golden opportunity for Universal Music? With proper nurturing, Britney Spears could be the next Madonna Ciccone!
"I'm from MCA Records. We think highly of you and want to sign you."

Britney Spears looked excited. "Really?"

MCA Music Group is a very famous music group. Although it has been renamed Universal Music Group, the MCA Records label has been retained!

"Of course, you should talk to your parents when you get back, and I will have someone contact you."

Britney Spears seemed hesitant to speak, wanting to ask but not daring to.

Aaron smiled. "Ask whatever you want. My people will contact you within three days at the latest."

Britney Spears smiled and said, "I asked for the gentleman's name."

"My name is Aaron. We'll have a chance to meet again after you sign with MCA."

"Of course, you also need to work hard. The competition at Universal Music is fierce, and you still have a lot to learn."

"Otherwise, even if we sign you, if you don't work hard, there's nothing the company can do."

Aaron spoke casually, saying that Britney Spears is still young and, if properly nurtured, could be a cash cow.

"Don't worry, I will definitely work hard!"

"it is good……"

Just as Aaron met Britney Spears, the science fiction thriller "12 Monkeys," starring Bruce Willis, was released.

"12 Monkeys" employs an absurd and humorous style, untangling seemingly complex and chaotic temporal and spatial relationships based on the protagonist's psychological activities, showcasing a strong magical realism and garnering much positive feedback!
The Austin Chronicle: "Director Terry Gilliam may be the most talented surrealist filmmaker since Luis Buñuel. Although his latest film, 12 Monkeys, is more of a science fiction novel than a science fiction film, it fully demonstrates his bizarre, unsettling and completely unique perspective."

Empire: "With the help of cinematographer Roger Pratt and production designer Jeffrey Beekcroft, director Terry Gilliam created a terrifying world filled with clumsy metal contraptions designed to frighten the humans who use them;"

“Terry Gilliam may have done better than any filmmaker today, combining exaggerated and satirical anarchism with fanatical obsession through his unique narrative talent.”

The Washington Post: "12 Monkeys has a tendency to travel through time and space, as well as through internal and external landscapes!"

Of course, in addition to positive reviews, "12 Monkeys" also received some criticism.

Variety: "As a visionary filmmaker, director Terry Gilliam has virtually no rivals in terms of pure creativity and visual imagination, constructing a series of sensory-stunning universes with lavish production design in each of his films."

"But in doing so, he neglected the logic of drama and the coherence of the narrative, which could have made his stories more engaging and meaningful. As a result, Terry Gilliam's works are full of emotion but lack rationality."

Meanwhile, at Aaron's instruction, MCA Records signed Britney Spears to a long-term contract after meeting with him!
Universal Music has offices in many cities, including Los Angeles, New York, and Orlando, while Britney Spears primarily works for MCA Records in Los Angeles.

Of course, Aaron would never get involved in such a trivial matter; the company has its own system for training new employees.

Perhaps, when Britney Spears releases her first single, Aaron will remember her again!
