"It seems that leaving CAA was indeed the right choice for you!"

Paula Wagner hugged Aaron.

Aaron smiled. "By the way, what has Tom been busy with recently?"

"Filming a Western in Montana called 'Far and Away'!"

"Oh, that's a collaboration with Universal, directed by Ron Howard," Aaron recalled.

"Yes, and there's another script in discussion, a Castle Rock project, directed by Rob Reiner!"

Aaron nodded. "I know, it's based on a Broadway stage play, about bullying within the Navy, called 'A Few Good Men,' right?"

"So you know about it too?"

"Yes, Castle Rock's co-distributor is Sony Columbia, and I have quite a few collaborations with Sony now."

Rob Reiner is the director of 'When Harry Met Sally...' ;

Castle Rock is developing rapidly and is an important production company under Sony Columbia's distribution system, but Dawnlight Pictures' rise this year is the most dazzling.

"I heard that your next collaboration with Samsung is also a romance film called 'Sleepless in Seattle,' starring Nicole Kidman again!"

Nicole Kidman is currently in Europe promoting with the 'Ghost' crew.

"Yes, a romantic comedy," Aaron said with a smile. "Julia Roberts is very popular and influential now. Does CAA regret it?"

Paula Wagner shrugged. "It's all fair competition, and CAA was originally the number one agency in terms of market share..."

After chatting with Paula Wagner, Aaron went to find Michael Ovitz.

"You want to invest in 'Schindler's List'?"

Aaron nodded. "That's right, I think this project has a high artistic value!"

Michael Ovitz said calmly, "Spielberg's intention is to have him shoot the entire 'Schindler's List' project, and the film company cannot interfere in the production process."

"Cannot interfere?" Meaning, no matter what it's filmed into or how it's filmed, no one else can interfere with the movie.

"No problem, I have a lot of faith in director Steven Spielberg!"

"Also, Steven hopes to film 'Schindler's List' as a black and white film lasting more than three hours."

Aaron narrowed his eyes. "Even if he films it as a silent film, it doesn't matter!"

Michael Ovitz then patted Aaron on the shoulder. "If you really decide to invest, CAA will owe you one."

"Well, when will Spielberg start preparing?"

"I'll discuss it with Steven, but he won't have time until the end of the year at the earliest..."

As Independence Day arrived, the long-awaited science fiction blockbuster, the sequel directed by James Cameron, 'Terminator 2: Judgment Day,' was released grandly!

It was released in 2,274 theaters in North America, grossing a staggering $31.7 million at the box office in its opening weekend.

To date, this special effects action blockbuster, with the largest investment and a production cost of $102 million, has given audiences the ultimate visual enjoyment!

The plot development of 'Terminator 2: Judgment Day' is full of ups and downs, the characters are rich and full, and the theme is also profound;

Especially the special effects technology in the film is the most praised, the villain liquid metal robot T-1000 in the movie is completely synthesized by computer special effects.

And the special effects technology of 'Terminator 2: Judgment Day' has epoch-making significance in film special effects;

'Terminator 2: Judgment Day' is also hailed as one of the greatest sequel films of all time!

"It's worthy of being James Cameron," Aaron said, putting down the newspaper in the Dawnlight Pictures office;

Carolco's high-concept film route of large investments, big stars, and large-scale publicity is perfectly reflected in 'Terminator 2: Judgment Day'.

In the afternoon, Aaron called his assistant Aislinn Beckett, "Give Quentin Tarantino $1.5 million to complete the filming of 'Reservoir Dogs'!"

Aaron was too lazy to look at his script. Anyway, looking at his script gives him a headache. "By the way, isn't Quentin in Los Angeles anymore?"

Aislinn Beckett shook her head. "The Sundance Film Festival has a summer director's lab, and he went to participate in this lab project;"

"To learn some techniques from other regular directors!"

"Okay," Aaron didn't mind. Anyway, Dawnlight Pictures still has more than $8 million in cash, and 'Ghost' will bring in a large sum of money soon.

In the evening, at a Hollywood bar.

"Quentin went to participate in that Sundance Director's Lab or something. He even wanted me to play a role!"

Jack Welles explained.

"Then why didn't you go?"

Jack Welles quickly shook his head. "What kind of person is Quentin? You know. That guy is a bit of a psycho!"

"What, he just likes call girls and licking women's toes?" Aaron smiled.

No one wrong, one first, one hair, one inside, one content, one in, one look!

"Hey, you know, and you still let me go?"

Jack Welles took a sip of wine. "Who knows what inappropriate scenes will be in the movie he directs?"

"Besides, I don't know how to act at all. Wouldn't it be a waste of film if I went?"

Aaron patted the other party on the shoulder. "You missed an opportunity to become famous. Quentin still has some talent;"

"It's just that the actor himself needs to have characteristics!"

Quentin Tarantino is a ruthless person. Even someone like Jack Welles thinks he's a pervert, but at least Jack Welles is someone who wants to hit people with a baseball bat at any moment.

"By the way, do you still remember Steven Reuther?"

Jack Welles suddenly asked.

"Heh, of course I remember. CAA's contracted producer. He was one of the producers of 'Pretty Woman' before. I've dealt with him!"

Jack Welles nodded. "I ran into him at the Hollywood Landmark Theater a few days ago. He has a script in his hand, and I heard it's not bad;"

"You can have him send it over and take a look. Maybe you'll be interested too."

"Is that so? Are you studying scripts now?"

Jack Welles smiled. "I don't know anything about it, but I saw him and director Adrian Lyne discussing that script at the time;"

"But I know Adrian Lyne. He directed movies like 'Flashdance,' '9½ Weeks,' and 'Fatal Attraction';"

"Now that Steven Reuther is discussing the script with Adrian Lyne, I think you can see how the script is."

Aaron thought for a moment, raised his hand and rubbed his chin. '9½ Weeks' and 'Fatal Attraction' belong to the category of erotic dramas, but it doesn't matter.

After all, 'Fatal Attraction' grossed $150 million worldwide in 1987!

Moreover, Carolco's investment in 'Basic Instinct' is currently being filmed in San Francisco, directed by Paul Verhoeven and starring Michael Douglas and Sharon Stone;

'Basic Instinct' is also the most expensive original script in Hollywood and is also an erotic suspense film. The attention has remained high since the film started filming!

"Help me make an appointment with Steven Reuther..."
