Hollywood starts with a broker

Burbank, Disney headquarters.

Jeffrey Katzenberg's office.

"Dawn actually acquired Pixar?"

No wonder he was surprised. Pixar is an animation and special effects company that loses money every year. What does Dawn want it for?

"Aaron Anderson acted quickly, spending nearly $40 million. Steve Jobs seemed somewhat forced to leave!"

The assistant explained from the side.

Jeffrey Katzenberg pondered, "Could it be that Dawn wants to develop animated films?"

The assistant certainly didn't know, and then looked at Jeffrey Katzenberg, "Pixar has also directly called off its cooperation with Disney. Perhaps Dawn really intends to develop animated films."

Jeffrey Katzenberg shook his head, "The preparation and production of an animated feature film takes much longer than a live-action movie. It won't be easy for Pixar to produce their first animated feature..."

New York, Manhattan, The Pierre Hotel.

Aaron, producer Gary Foster, and director Nora Ephron are discussing the script for 'Sleepless in Seattle'!

"Tom Hanks?"

Nora Ephron thought for a moment after hearing the name Aaron Anderson mentioned, "He is indeed an actor who belongs to the romantic comedy genre!"

Gary Foster reminded, "He collaborated with Meg Ryan on a romance film last year, but it didn't get much attention;"

"And he also tried a villain role in a drama film, 'The Bonfire of the Vanities,' which was also a failure."

Aaron smiled, "Does Tom Hanks look like he can play a villain? The casting for 'The Bonfire of the Vanities' was a huge failure;"

"As for romantic comedies, since 'Pretty Woman' was released last year, there have been many such romantic comedies;"

"However, most of the scripts are poorly made, pieced together and kneaded together at will."

"Nora, give the script to Tom Hanks to take a look!"

"Oh, okay," Nora Ephron certainly had no objections.

"Gary, now that the script for 'Sleepless in Seattle' is complete, let's officially start preparing!"

Aaron said, then stood up, "The funding will be available soon."

Gary Foster nodded.

The distributor for 'Sleepless in Seattle' is TriStar Pictures, and Aaron still needs to talk to Mike Medavoy about the distribution split;

However, he has to wait until 'Ghost' is released before talking!

In the evening, Nicole Kidman, who had finished attending the ABC television station's 'Ghost' promotional event, came to the hotel.

"Sony seems to really value 'Ghost'!"

Nicole Kidman lay in the man's arms on the bed in the bedroom, her tone very excited.

Aaron smiled, stroked the delicate body in his arms and exhaled, "How could they not value it? Isn't Kevin Costner heavyweight enough?"

"Besides, didn't the promotional footage of 'Ghost' at the Cannes Film Festival also receive a lot of praise?"

Nicole Kidman propped up her head, "'Sleepless in Seattle' is also about to start filming, right?"

"Yes, if there are no accidents, the male lead will be Tom Hanks, the male lead in Penny Marshall's 'Big'!"

Aaron said, looking at Nicole, "'Sleepless in Seattle' is a romantic comedy with a lot of humorous elements;"

"It's different from 'Ghost'. You need to pay attention to some things when you perform."

After all, 'Ghost' belongs to the fantasy romance genre, and the acting styles of the two are different;

The current Nicole Kidman is still a genuine Hollywood newcomer and hasn't been stereotyped. According to the future Nicole Kidman's style, who would dare to let her act in a comedy?

Nicole Kidman leaned against the man, "Well, you just praised me for being very plastic, acting great, and saying that I can endure hardship and act very seriously!"

Aaron closed his eyes, put his arms around the girl, "Just now was just now, it's very late, let's sleep."

In that kind of situation just now, did Aaron have other things in his mind?

Nicole Kidman smiled, "Tomorrow is the weekend and there's nothing to do."

Aaron sighed, reached out and rubbed the other person's body, "How can young people only think about these things? Let's rest well. You'll have a lot to endure during this period of promotional activities!"

'Ghost' will be released in a week, and so many promotional activities also require energy.

Nicole Kidman leaned close to Aaron's ear, "Should I get a boob job?"

Aaron was stunned for a moment, "Why would you have such an idea?"

There is no mistake, one song, one hair, one inside, one face, one look!

"It's not good for your health, don't think too much..."

The next morning, New York City held a victory parade to celebrate the Gulf War. American troops returning from Iraq paraded on Broadway in Manhattan, New York;

Surrounded by dense crowds of American people, flying flowers and ribbons filled the entire street.

"The American victory parade, this scene is really big!"

Near Times Square, Nicole Kidman and Aaron stood together on the nearby street, watching Broadway, which was crowded with people.

Aaron rubbed his chin, "The day before yesterday it was held in Washington, D.C., and today it came to New York;"

"The largest parade since the World War II victory parade!"

Nicole Kidman's mouth formed an O shape, "No wonder they say that two or three million people participated in New York?"

"One by one," Aaron shook his head. The victory of the Gulf War made these guys think they could live a good life?

What does it have to do with the people? Will Bush care about the domestic economy?

How happy these people are now, how ridiculous they will be when they see the military spending caused by the Iraq war quagmire later!

"Let's go, the economy is sluggish now, and they still have the mood to do these things?"

Aaron couldn't wait to see the crowds of people marching because of unemployment!

As 'Boyz n the Hood's North American box office reached $57 million, Columbia didn't delay too much;

After all, there was only a remaining payment of more than $2.3 million.

However, Aaron couldn't treat everyone unfairly. He only kept $500,000 for himself, and the remaining $1.8 million was used as bonuses and dividends;

Director John Singleton, producers Quentin Tarantino, Jack Wills, actors Cuba Gooding Jr., Ice Cube, etc.

The production cost of 'Boyz n the Hood' was only $5.5 million, plus publicity and distribution costs of $7 million, the total cost was only $12.5 million;

But Dawn's revenue was pretty good, from theater box office, video tape copyrights, and television broadcast rights!

"It is estimated that next month, the final box office payment for 'The Silence of the Lambs' will also arrive," Aaron lay in the hotel bathtub, imagining the future.

"Aaron!" Nicole Kidman walked into the bathroom naked...
