Chapter 500 Find a big star to comeo

  Early the next morning, Ronald, who got the working sample, began to watch those dance clips repeatedly in the editing car.

   So far, the most exciting thing is the three paragraphs,

The first part is Falken's rival dancer, the fusion of robot dance and noodle dance, which is a new form of break dance. Falken told Ronald that this is called "popular robot dance PopLocking ".

  The second paragraph is the motor played by Boogaloo Prawn, who dances a broom dance, which is natural, and there is no trace of stagnation. Moreover, his moonwalk skills are proficient, which is of great benefit to the ending I want to shoot.

  The last part is the floor dance of the hand man. If you don’t tell you in advance that he is a polio patient, many people may not necessarily know it.

   Cut the three dances together, and Ronald asked Minahan to send it to be turned into a video tape.

   "It's urgent today, I want it tonight."

   "Okay, I'll send someone to your house."

   Ronald returned to the apartment, first called CAA's agent, then took a shower, shaved his beard, and had a good night's sleep. Energetic, he got up just in time to wait for the two video tapes sent by Minahan's assistant.

   "Thank you", Ronald looked at the video tapes in his hand, one in Sony Beta format and one in VHS format, and put them in his purse. Putting on his handmade suit, Ronald drove out and headed directly to CAA's office.

   "Are you here?" Nisita was already waiting for him in a suit and tie, "MJ signed a contract with Pepsi for a national promotion tour and became their product spokesperson. He arrived in Los Angeles yesterday and stayed overnight at the Beverly Hills Hilton Hotel today.

  However, he is very busy and has broken many records in album sales. He is no longer the first-line singer in the past, but a top-notch singer. I can only arrange a chat for a few minutes for you. "

   "No problem, I have something he is interested in here." Ronald shook the leather bag in his hand.

   "Okay, let's go." Nisita drove the car himself, and the two headed to the Beverly Hills Hilton Hotel.

  Michael Jackson's ostentation is getting bigger and bigger, and there are bodyguards guarding the door in his bedroom.

   After confirming with the inside, Ronald walked into the room.

"Hi, Ronald, nice to meet you, I heard you have something to do with me?" MJ spoke softly, like a teenager who hasn't grown up, but his whole person's aura has changed from the last time I saw him Big difference.

  It seems that Pepsi's record-breaking US$5 million celebrity endorsement fee has really made this pop star realize his own value.

   "Sorry to bother you, I always remember what you said, looking for a moonwalk dance instructor."

   Ronald took out two video tapes and handed them to the assistant next to MJ.

  The Boogaloo prawn doing the "Motor's Broom Dance" appeared on TV.

   "What's his name?" MJ stood up immediately when he saw the light and rhythmic moonwalk, "I want to know his name"

   "His name is Boogaloo Prawn, and his real name is Michael Chambers." Ronald said the name to his assistant, "You can also read the next paragraph."

  The popular mechanical dance of Falken during the dance appeared on TV again. Unlike ordinary mechanical dances, his version is elegant and unrestrained, not exactly the sluggishness of robots.

  Seeing that MJ turned his head again, Ronald said quickly, "This is Bruno Falcon, he named this dance himself, called PopLocking style."

   "Let my agent call them." MJ ordered the assistant.

   "Hey, they are shooting a new movie in my crew now." Ronald interrupted beside him, "It's a movie about breakdancing, and those are the shots in the movie."

   "Movie?" MJ became interested. He made a black version of "The Wizard of Oz" in 1978, but the box office and film reviews were average. Seeing that Ronald was making a dance film this time, I became a little interested. "

   "Would you like to go and have a look? Then you can make a guest appearance." Ronald smiled and said his real purpose.

   "I'm afraid it won't work. My current itinerary is arranged by my agent." Michael Jackson is now the darling of all the little girls in America.

   "This is not a role, you just have to play yourself as a guest. Besides, you also want to ask them to be choreographers, just go to my place, chat with them, and it will be an interview."

   "Is that so? Is there still time in my schedule?" Michael Jackson is really eager to find talent for the spacewalk between Falcon and Bugaloo Prawn, and his opponent is also very interested, so it is good to meet him when he has time.

  The assistant opened the schedule, "Tomorrow we have to go to Los Angeles, and we won't be back until next Wednesday."

   "That's no problem. I'll let the people from CAA arrange it. You just need to show up. The filming only takes five minutes, and you can have a good chat with them."

   "Then it's settled, Ronald." After MJ finished speaking, he turned his head and motioned to the assistant.

   "His schedule is very tight, so..." the assistant ejected the videotape and returned it to Ronald

   "Then I won't bother you", Ronald said goodbye with interest.

   "Yeah!" After walking downstairs and getting into Nisita's car, Ronald couldn't hold back, clenched his fists and shouted.

   "Hahaha, it seems that your share will increase greatly", Nisita smiled and drove away.

   "Yes, your share will also be greatly increased."

  Ronald informed Minahan of the good news overnight, making him ready to set up the dance competition scene on Wednesday, and then asked Falcon to attend on time.

   Then Ronald began to rewrite the final ending.

  Whirlwind is Latino, and Mada is black. Such ethnicities are unlikely to enter Broadway, and a white girl like Kelly will play the leading role in a musical.

  Ronald still let the trio win the dance competition, but in the end they did not recommend the trio to Broadway. They were busy and fought hard, but in the end they got nothing but a trophy.

  Kelly returned to the burger restaurant as a waiter, and Ma Da and Huofeng still worked in the convenience store.

   The only change is that the trio will often go back to dance where they met in Venice Beach.

  Perhaps break dancing is not inherently a high-end place like Broadway. Audiences need to pay for tickets to come in and enjoy this kind of street dance.

  Break dancing should belong to the street, belong to the poor, all lovers, like it, can enjoy it next to it, and can also learn from it. These people will selflessly share their skills.

  The trio happened to be at the beach that day, teaching Latino, black, and white kids the basics of breakdancing from scratch.

  A tall and thin black man walked on the beach. He approached the dance venue, watched their wonderful dance scene, and took off his sunglasses, "You dance very well, can you dance together?"

  After Ronald finished writing, he read it several times, laughed a few times, and fell asleep satisfied.

   This is his second attempt at a Billy Wilder ending. The original climax was to win the dance competition championship, but in reality it is impossible to realize the dream of entering Broadway.

  The plot is reversed here once, and the audience will feel excited and a little bit bitter. The real life is like this, where there will be a big gift that reaches the sky in one step, and falls on oneself every day.

  The three of them insisted on their nature, and did not give up because they liked break dancing. In the end, they found fun in the street and were accidentally noticed by the emperor superstar.

  The movie can stop abruptly here, giving the audience plenty of room for imagination. They were spotted by MJ and went to the dance troupe? Or as MJ's choreography coach? Or they just met by chance, according to the rules of street dancers, after a dance, they parted ways.

  On Monday of the second week, the crew resumed filming.

   Already knew that they would have the opportunity to meet Michael Jackson, several leading actors were a little excited. Although they didn't show it on the surface, Ronald could see it at the end of the filming, each trying to bring out the best of their abilities.

   This helped Ronald a lot. A very energetic actor, he can often improvise very difficult dance moves on the set. Some moves are not easy for them to practice normally. For no reason, the dance quality of the movie has improved a lot.

   On this day, the shooting was transferred to Debbie Reynolds dance studio to shoot.

   "Ronald, be careful, I just finished the decoration, and I will start recruiting and opening next month." Debbie Reynolds still appeared on the set and gave Ronald a few instructions.

   "No problem, Ms. Reynolds, I have arranged everything." Ronald took Reynolds to look at his arrangements.

  In order to prevent damage to the decoration of the dance classroom, the props covered the mirrors on the four walls with wooden boards, and then carried a few large mirrors of their own.

   Another common shooting plan, using false walls instead of real walls, so that after the shooting is completed, it is easy to dismantle and restore the original dance classroom.

   "Well, I'm relieved if you do this. Are you making a musical?" Debbie Reynolds looked at the scene set and asked.

   "Yes, Debbie. It's a movie about street dancing, and I absolutely love your 'Singin' in the Rain' and want my movie to be as successful as your masterpiece."

   "Hahaha, few people make musicals now. At that time, musicals were the best-selling genre." Debbie Reynolds recalled when she was young.

  “At that time, there was a group of technicians who specialized in filming musicals, non-stop every day. As soon as the A-level blockbuster was finished, the B-level small production moved into the set and continued shooting. It was like an assembly line, bang! A movie was finished.”

   "Singin' in the Rain is my first movie. I practiced that dance. After a day of filming, my dancing shoes were full of blood from the soles of my feet."

  Debbie Reynolds looked at Ronald, "Unexpectedly, there are still people making dance films. I hope you succeed, Ronald."

   "This young man looks good. It would be great if my daughter's boyfriend, Paul Simon, had his talent. The singers are still unreliable, and they are always crying."
