Hollywood starts with a broker

Wearing an oversized top and loose jeans, he swayed to the rhythm as he walked. His graffiti hoodie and the Compton set of "Boyz n the Hood" were full of hip-hop vibes.

The five elements of hip-hop culture—B-box, beatboxing, DJing, graffiti, and rapping—were highly sought after by many young people.

"Hey, man, don't worry, the movie will definitely be finished on time," Ice Cube said, approaching Aaron and bumping fists with him!

Aaron nodded. "I believe John can handle it."

He looked at Ice Cube. "It's such a pity that N.W.A disbanded. You guys were the representative group of West Coast hip-hop!"

N.W.A was the leader of gangsta rap, the most important branch of West Coast hip-hop, and made West Coast hip-hop able to compete with New York, the birthplace of hip-hop.

It's just that N.W.A disbanded after only two years due to uneven finances.

Ice Cube shrugged and smiled indifferently. "My main conflict was with Dr. Dre. Actually, I have a good relationship with Eazy-E!"

At this time, director John Singleton announced a fifteen-minute break.

"How is it? Is there any problem with Cuba Gooding Jr.'s performance?"

Aaron came to John Singleton and asked about his performance. Aaron would come to the set for a while every day these past few days.

He had deliberately lost his temper at Cuba Gooding Jr. a few times, telling him to restrain his desires and complete the performance properly!

John Singleton smiled. "You are the producer and the investor, so you have a halo around you."

"How dare the actors disobey you in front of you?"

Aaron stretched. "Being too lazy will not get you far. Although you can use the golden sign of racial discrimination, you must also be excellent yourself!"

"Boyz n the Hood," from the start of filming in July to now in September, the time has caught up with the filming time of "Ghost."

Aaron had already decided in his heart that he would not produce movies about black people in the future. They are all burdens.

"There is still a week left to wrap up filming. I will finish the editing as soon as possible," John Singleton also knew that Aaron was not satisfied with the filming progress. The 5 million dollars was not enough to complete the film.

Aaron patted him on the shoulder. "I have increased the budget by 500,000 dollars, which is enough to complete the post-production of the film."

"Just do your own thing. I will go to the "Jungle Fever" crew this afternoon. Spike Lee invited me to visit!"

The racial discrimination romance film "Jungle Fever," written and directed by black director Spike Lee, recently came to Los Angeles to film.

A few days ago, he made a special trip to the "Boyz n the Hood" crew to visit and invited Aaron to visit his crew when he had time.

Spike Lee is 33 years old this year. "Jungle Fever" is his third feature film. Last year, his self-written and directed film "Do the Right Thing" was released and was nominated for this year's Academy Award for Best Original Screenplay.

"Jungle Fever" is a love story starring black actor Wesley Snipes and white actress Annabella Sciorra, crossing racial discrimination!

"Hey, Aaron, you're here," Spike Lee said, warmly hugging Aaron Anderson after seeing him at the "Jungle Fever" crew in downtown Los Angeles.

"Good afternoon, Spike!"

Spike Lee invited Aaron to sit on a chair next to him and lit a cigar. "Want one of these things?"

Aaron shook his head and took out his own Marlboro and lit one.

"How is the crew over there? John Singleton is a newcomer. There must be some shortcomings in directing a movie for the first time!"

Spike Lee's works have always been themed on racial discrimination. He certainly hopes that nothing unexpected will happen to the younger generation of black directors.

Spike Lee knew where the problem was with the "Boyz n the Hood" crew. The leader was a newcomer, and the experienced Aaron Anderson spent a lot of time on another work.

Moreover, the proportion of newcomers in "Boyz n the Hood" is too high, there are too few professionals, there are many outdoor scenes, and there are many extras, which tests scheduling.

Aaron exhaled a puff of smoke. "It's okay. I increased the budget by 500,000 dollars, which is almost enough to complete post-production."

Spike Lee smiled. "Actually, for this kind of movie, it is suitable to shoot in New York. Harlem perfectly fits the theme of "Boyz n the Hood". There are more independent films there."

"Moreover, I know a lot of people there and can assist!"

Aaron leaned back in his chair. "John and I are both locals in Los Angeles. Aren't we familiar enough with this place?"

"Alright, things are still under control!"

Saying that, Aaron patted him. "Let's go for a drink tonight and experience the nightlife of Los Angeles. It's no worse than New York."

Spike Lee opened his mouth excitedly, his expression immediately moved, "Oh, God, we can't wait..."

When it comes to nightlife, Las Vegas is probably the only place that can compare with Los Angeles. New York is not bad.

But how can it have the charm of Los Angeles?

In the evening, Aaron Anderson took Jack Wells, John Singleton, Quentin Tarantino and others from the crew, along with Spike Lee and Wesley Snipes, to a Hollywood nightclub!

"Decided to increase the budget by 500,000?"

Jack Wells asked in a low voice.

Aaron nodded. "Yes, the important thing now is to successfully complete the film. I won't develop black works in the future."

"One by one, they are too lazy, lustful, slow to react, and have poor learning ability..."

If Aaron didn't know that this movie could make money, he would never have gotten involved with them!

Jack Wells smiled. "Now you know why I have always disliked black people?"

"What about black women?" Aaron asked back.

"Black women, well, there are still some very good ones. Chocolate-like black glowing skin with full buttocks is also quite hot..."

Aaron glanced at Jack Wells. Do Americans like big lips and big butts so much?

Then, he looked at Wesley Snipes, who was dancing with a woman not far away. This is the future "Blade Warrior."

Now Wesley Snipes is 28 years old and has not been in the industry for long, but he has works to his name!

It's just that Aaron has a relatively deep impression of the young black woman Wesley Snipes is hugging;

24-year-old Halle Berry, a beauty pageant contestant who entered Hollywood, plays a small role of a few minutes in "Jungle Fever!"

Now she is dancing in Wesley Snipes' arms. Their relationship is obvious at a glance.

However, during the day, Aaron saw her coming out of director Spike Lee's office.

Aaron is very clear about how chaotic the film crews in Hollywood are, let alone this kind of independent film.

It cannot be described with just one word of chaos. Basically, it is outside the scope of morality and ethics!

Aaron has an impression of black women and thinks that Halle Berry has a good appearance and figure anyway she is of mixed black and white race.

"Alright, I'm going to the bathroom," Aaron put down his wine glass and stood up.

When Aaron washed his face and came out of the bathroom, a scantily clad woman standing in the corridor asked seductively: "Want to have some fun? 200 dollars will do!"

Aaron didn't even bother to look at her and waved her away directly.

At this time, Wesley Snipes was hugging Halle Berry and preparing to enter the toilet. After seeing Aaron, he greeted with a smile, "Aaron, I really love the nights in Los Angeles!"

Aaron smiled, looked at the other party who was obviously a little tipsy, and nodded, "Have fun."

"Mr. Anderson, I am Halle Berry, and I am also an actress!"

Taking advantage of the gap, Halle Berry quickly promoted herself...
