Hollywood Director 1992

After the box office success of "Paranormal Activity", Link transformed from a small multi-millionaire into a near billionaire.

Monica began to feel anxious and insecure.

Her concern wasn't about how many women Link might have on the side, but that after becoming a billionaire and a famous director, Link would find her too old and turn his attention to younger women.

Link, however, didn't have such thoughts for the time being.

While young women were appealing, they were immature both physically and mentally, which was troublesome.

He could exchange bodily fluids with them, but not emotions. Becoming too involved in that aspect would inevitably affect his career, which wasn't worth it.

Monica, although older, was smarter, more mature, and had a stable temperament. She knew what to do and what not to do, making it easier to be around her.

Link didn't want to change that for now.

"Link, you're amazing! You can do 50 reps with a 100-pound weight. Your physical fitness is almost on par with professional athletes," Jim Carrey said as he walked over in the public gym.

"It's not that exaggerated. I've just been working out more recently," Link said, wiping sweat with a towel.

After his physical fitness had been enhanced three times by the system, he indeed felt much more relaxed. Before, after a few rounds with Monica at night, he would easily feel weak the next day, and break out in a cold sweat after running a few steps.

That wasn't the case now.

Now, Monica was the one who couldn't get up in the morning.

And after getting up, he could still run five kilometers, do four sets of pull-ups, and four sets of resistance training.

His physical fitness was becoming increasingly formidable.

This was also why he chose to continue making movies after becoming a billionaire.

No amount of money in the account could compare to having a strong body.

"Jim, when is your new movie coming out? I think it's called 'Ace Ventura: Pet Detective,' right?"

Link draped the towel over his shoulders and sat down on a bench to rest.

"It's already been released. It premiered at a theater in Los Angeles a couple of weeks ago, but unfortunately, the premiere results were so poor that it couldn't guarantee profitability. The film company gave up on continuing to show it in theaters and switched to releasing it on video."

"Releasing it on video isn't bad either. I'll buy a copy to watch when it's available."

"I have one. I'll give you a copy."

Jim Carrey sat opposite him, hesitated for a moment, and then asked, "Link, what do you think of my new script? The one for 'Ace Ventura: Pet Detective.'"

"The script is very interesting. If you're interested in collaborating, Guess What Films might be able to invest in this film project."

"Really?!"

Jim Carrey jumped up excitedly.

Today, he had pretended to run into Link, intending to casually ask for Link's opinion of the script after he had read it.

If Link wasn't satisfied, he could take it back and continue to revise it until Link was satisfied.

As long as Link was willing to invest, he would listen to whatever Link said.

But as soon as he asked, Link directly told him that the script was good and that Guess What Films was interested in investing.

This was the best news he had heard in years.

He knew that this guy was Link, a newly minted billionaire, the most dazzling director in the current circle, and a potential annual box office champion director.

To have 'Ace Ventura: Pet Detective' praised by him was the greatest encouragement he had received in years.

"It's true. Comedy movies have always been popular with audiences, and your script is also very interesting, with a certain investment value."

"That's great, that's great."

Jim Carrey clapped his hands and spun around in place, then suddenly stopped. "Link, will you let me be the male lead?"

"This is a script you wrote for yourself, of course, you're the male lead."

"That's great, that's great!"

Jim Carrey became even more excited, grabbed Link's hand, and shook it. "Link, when will we start filming?"

"Early next year. But I won't be directing it. You've been in Hollywood longer, do you have any suitable candidates to recommend?"

"Link, you're not directing this movie?"

Jim Carrey seemed disappointed.

"I'm not good at making comedy movies."

Comedy movies have a lively style, and the main theme is lighthearted and funny, with the aim of making the audience laugh.

Sometimes, in order to add comedic elements, logic and details can be ignored. The beauty of the lines and acting skills are not emphasized. As long as the audience in the theater can be made to laugh heartily, the comedy is considered a success, and nothing else matters.

This type of movie is generally difficult for serious directors to control, and it is easy to turn it into a loosely structured bad movie.

"I have a suitable candidate, Tom Shadyac. He is a screenwriter and director, and he has worked as a director's assistant and producer in the two films 'Peggy Sue Got Married' and 'Cadillac Man'. He gave me a lot of guidance when I was writing 'Ace Ventura: Pet Detective', but I'm not sure if he's suitable."

Jim Carrey said hesitantly.

Link didn't know who this Tom Shadyac was, but he didn't immediately refuse. He planned to call Tom Shadyac to chat and see if he had the ability to be a director. After chatting, he would have a good idea of his capabilities.

"That's fine. When you have time, you can bring him to Guess What Films and let me chat with him."

"Okay! I'll contact him right away,"

Jim Carrey said excitedly.

There is no mistake in the first paragraph, the first hair, the first content, the first view!

After Jim Carrey left, Link continued to train.

As he was doing squats with a barbell, a tall blonde woman, Brooke Shields, came to the ab machine directly in front of him.

The woman was wearing black stretch pants, a grass-green sports vest, and a golden ponytail, with a yellow headband on her forehead.

She had a good figure, with long legs, wearing tight clothes, with prominent curves.

When doing chest expansion exercises, the curves of her chest became more prominent, sometimes revealing a section of her fair waist.

From the perspective of body proportions and curves, her figure was better than Monica's.

Affected by this woman, Link was originally able to do 30 weighted squats in a row, but as a result, he only managed to do 26, and his thighs began to tremble.

After he put down the barbell, Brooke Shields walked over with her long legs.

"Good morning, Link."

Brooke Shields greeted him with a smile.

"Good morning, Brooke."

"Link, you look really strong, like a weightlifter, very sturdy."

Brooke Shields said, looking him up and down.

"I used to be a stevedore, and now I'm a director carrying a camera. Both rely on physical strength to make a living. It's no good if I don't have strength."

Link shrugged and smiled.

"Haha, what you said is really interesting. The experiences of you directors are also very interesting. You used to be a stevedore, and director Cameron used to be a truck driver. As a result, you all succeeded. It's amazing."

"Really? Good morning, Director Cameron."

Link greeted the direction behind Brooke Shields.

"Are you kidding me?"

Brooke Shields blinked suspiciously.

"Director Link, good morning, congratulations on the big success of your new movie."

James Cameron's rough voice came from behind.

Not only Director Cameron came, but also his live-in girlfriend, Linda Hamilton.

Linda Hamilton was carrying her belly, looking like she was five or six months pregnant.

Linda Hamilton also greeted Link and Brooke Shields.

Link politely responded to the two of them. After chatting about the new movie for a few words, James Cameron pulled Linda Hamilton away.

"Oh no, do you think Director Cameron heard me say he was a truck driver?"

Brooke Shields asked, looking slightly embarrassed.

"It's okay, Director Cameron was originally a truck driver. It's not like you said anything offensive by calling him a truck driver."

"Okay, I believe you."

Brooke Shields smiled slightly and started exercising near him, showing him her sexy waist, hips, and long legs, preventing him from being able to calm down and exercise.
