Hollywood starts with an agent

Chapter 444: Probing Attack

In Aaron's opinion, Fargo is the Coen brothers' best work to date!

It is a rare masterpiece in terms of both its expressive techniques and thematic expression. However, its strong Minnesota regional characteristics may not be well-received by the people of Minnesota.
It overemphasizes the way Minnesos speak and think, portraying them as silly.

That evening, Aaron returned to his villa on the Upper East Side.

Aaron, leaning back on the sofa, casually picked up a copy of "Sports Weekly" next to him. The NBA's list of 50 greatest players was quite appealing!
Of the selected players, "Pistol" Pete Maravich has passed away; of the 50 players, 11 are active players and 38 are retired.
按照位置来分，中锋有15人、组织后卫有9人、得分后卫有9人、小前锋有9人、大前锋有8人。

"Shaquille O'Neal," Aaron smiled upon seeing the Big Diesel's name. No wonder the Orlando Magic went to great lengths to appeal to the league.

After all, Shaquille O'Neal has only played four seasons in the NBA. Compared with his predecessors who were selected at the same time, he is a typical "three-no player" (no MVP, no championship, no All-NBA First Team)!

The Orlando Magic may really regret their decision, but unfortunately the Houston Rockets did not violate any league rules by signing Shaquille O'Neal.

The current Houston Rockets roster, besides Shaquille O'Neal, also includes Charles Barkley and Clyde Drexler, all of whom are among the league's top 50 stars.

If Hakeem Olajuwon hadn't left the Rockets, the team would currently have four active players who are among the top 50 superstars!
Moreover, because the once-in-a-generation talent Tim Duncan will be in the draft next year, more than a third of the teams have chosen to tank this season.

The San Antonio Spurs in the West and the Boston Celtics in the East, in particular, have tanked to an insane degree.

In addition, after acquiring Dennis Rodman from the Rockets, the Chicago Bulls formed a formidable trio!

On Christmas Eve, Aaron, along with his investment advisor and Tianhai Fund manager Edgar Irwin, met with Grindelwald von Hilbert, president of Deutsche Bank America.

"I need $3 to $5 million in cash!"

Grindelwald von Hilbert smiled. "Mr. Anderson, when would you like it?"

As for the rest, Grindelwald von Hilbert wouldn't ask any more questions; Aaron Anderson's assets were now countless.
The shares of Dawning alone are worth an astronomical sum.

Aaron thought for a moment, "As soon as possible, I will go to Asia in late January next year!"

“Asia?” Grindelwald von Hilbert nodded. “The funds will arrive after the New Year.”

Aaron is preparing funds for the Asian financial crisis next year. Such opportunities are rare, and Aaron will definitely not miss them!
After Grindelwald von Hilbert left, Aaron looked at Edgar Irwin and said, "Next spring, I need at least $20 billion; I can just use Tianhai Fund's stock as collateral."

"You are aware of the current situation in Asia. Wall Street hedge funds, led by the Quantum Fund, are already extremely hungry."

Aaron is an investor in Omega, one of the four major hedge funds on Wall Street. Those international speculators can't wait any longer!

"clear."

Edgar Irving knew Aaron would have big plans in Asia, but he didn't expect them to be this big.

"Yes, once the funds from Deutsche Bank arrive, they will be used as collateral to borrow Thai baht from Thai banks!"

Edgar Irwin paused, "This time, will it start in Thailand?" "Pretty much, very soon, there will be a probing attack. The real estate market in Thailand seems to be starting to fall in price."

Aaron will soon be heading to Hong Kong after the New Year!
"Understood. I will raise the necessary $20 billion as soon as possible..."

The following Christmas Day, Nicole Kidman arrived at Aaron's Upper East Side villa.

Are you spending Christmas alone at home?

Nicole Kidman was surprised to see Aaron Anderson lounging on the sofa.

Aaron waved his hand casually, "I'm just taking a few days to rest!"

“Oh,” Nicole Kidman then sat down next to the man, “Lady Is the Best”, the movie I starred in was officially released in the United States last week.

"Isn't it an art film? Did 'Lady' win any awards at the Venice Film Festival?"

Aaron nestled directly into Nicole Kidman's arms, enjoying her tenderness.

Nicole Kidman reached out and ruffled Aaron's blond hair. "It's just a nomination. The Golden Globe only has a Best Supporting Actress nomination."

"It can't compare to 'The English Patient,' which had so many Golden Globe nominations."

Aaron kissed Nicole Kidman's fair cheek. "You were quite memorable in 'Ladies'!"

Henry James' original novel, combined with director Jane Campion's meticulous female perspective, imbues "Ladies" with a poignant and subtle atmosphere.
Nicole Kidman's paleness, delicacy, and classicism were exactly what the role of Isabelle Archer required. She portrayed a noblewoman living in the last century who was pursuing self-realization with subtlety and depth.

It can be said that Nicole Kidman, with her outstanding temperament, portrayed the heroine's naturalness, innocence, and romance, with no shortage of unexpected surprises!

Nicole Kidman smiled and said, "Well, actually I'm quite satisfied with my performance in 'Ladies'."

Although Nicole Kidman didn't win any acting awards for "Lady's Colors," the film certainly showcased her acting skills and style.
At least, the label of "pretty face" that has always been associated with Nicole Kidman was barely mentioned in this film.

As she spoke, Nicole Kidman moved closer to the man, nuzzling him affectionately. "I heard you're working on a movie version of 'Chicago'?"

Aaron laughed. "What, you want to act too?"

Nicole Kidman nodded. "Why can't I?"

Madonna Ciccone has garnered a lot of attention with her recently released musical film, "Evita"!
Musicals have a natural appeal to award judges and film critics.

"Honey, you know that *Chicago* is a musical."

"There are a lot of dance performances inside, which places high demands on the actors' stage performances. If you don't have a dance background, you're likely to get injured!"

With Nicole Kidman's height of 180cm, can her knees handle dancing jazz?
