Chapter 546: The opening ceremony should be breakdanc

  Chapter 546 There should be a break dance in the opening ceremony

  The next afternoon, Ronald and Brooke came to the Los Angeles Memorial Stadium early to participate in the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games.

   This is the stadium built for the first Olympic Games held in 1932. After renovation this year, it can accommodate 93,000 spectators.

  The stadium was full of seats, which made people feel very small inside. Ronald looked up at the broadcasting position. This kind of big scene also needs to be directed. This time, the Olympic Organizing Committee invited David Wolper, the director of the famous TV series "Roots".

  The stadium is very large, Brooke's seat is very close to the VIP seats in front, and Ronald's ticket is just behind her and not far above.

  Because the organizing committee greeted in advance, they would give Brooke a shot, and the two agreed to sneak up to meet Ronald after Brooke finished her mission.

Ronald found a seat by himself, right next to the aisle of the second-tier grandstand, and the view here is very good, but there is a tall man with a red neck in front of him, wearing a sun hat, a pair of tattered shorts, and a pair of very old The shoes are very sloppy, very similar to the homeless on the streets of Los Angeles.

   Ronald wanted to change seats, made a noise, was heard by the red neck in front, and he turned his head.

   "Ronald, what a coincidence, you are also in this stand?"

   "Steven, what's wrong with you? Why are you dressed like this?" Ronald found that the homeless man was actually Spielberg who met at the airport yesterday.

   "Shh, I want to watch an opening ceremony quietly, without being recognized by reporters."

   "Oh", Ronald flipped to the next row and sat next to him, and the two pointed at the opposite chairman's box.

   "Is that the Grand Commander?"

   "The one next to him seems to be Juan Antonio Samaranch, the chairman of the Olympic Committee."

   "The one in the back is Prince Charles of Britain?"

   "It seems that his wife didn't come?"

   “I read in the newspaper that the second child is about to be born.”

   "How many seats did you see?"

   "Six? Maybe a helicopter aerial shot."

  The two watched the program while discussing the schedule. They are both directors. This opening ceremony is the first time a large-scale theatrical performance has been arranged, and both of them are very interested.

"oh!"

  The two directors let out an exclamation, and two trapeze men dressed as astronauts flew from the sky. There was no wire suspension, and they descended completely by the compressed air on their backs, and slowly landed in the stadium.

   "Beep beep..." A whistle sounded, and young people in white clothes in the stadium were photographed into several piles, and the balloons they held in their hands formed the words "Welcome".

   "How did these young people get it? It's very troublesome to rehearse." Ronald became interested.

   "I heard that I was looking for high school student volunteers in Los Angeles. I have been rehearsing for more than two months."

  Group gymnastics began to change again. Separated and closed, it became a blossoming flower.

  A young girl with a white hat came down the aisle and gave flowers to all the audience.

   "Mr. Spielberg?" The girl recognized the famous director.

   "Shh," Spielberg gestured at her. The girl is no longer pestering.

   "President of the United States of America, First Lady, Mr. Samaranch, President of the International Olympic Committee." The loudspeaker began to introduce the guests on the rostrum.

  As the American national anthem and the special background music "Salute to the Commander-in-Chief" were played by the live band, the group gymnastics below began to change formation again. For a while it was a rhombus, and for a while it was a circle.

   Then they let go of the balloons in their hands, and hundreds of balloons flew to the outside, telling everyone in Los Angeles that the opening ceremony had begun.

  The live band played a compilation of famous historical songs from Hollywood and Broadway, and the following group exercises began to change between marches, and finally turned into a five-ring shape.

   Ronald applauded. It seems that the mass group gymnastics in America is also doing well, not worse than last year's Moscow.

  The TV station relayed the footage and began to scan the front row of guest stars on the runway. The camera caught Brooke Shields, and she made a cute scissors to the camera.

   "This is a famous college student from our famous university, a model, a movie star, a top student from Princeton, Brooke Shields." The host in the studio started joking.

  With the performance of the opening ceremony, the group gymnastics began to form the shape of the map of the United States, and caravans drove in.

  Then group gymnastics became a steamboat, which became a church.

  This is telling the history of America. Many extras rushed in, and the group gymnasts opened the colorful curtains to simulate the stained glass on the church windows.

  The choir composed of several blacks began to lead the singing.

   Ronald understood that this was a gesture of racial unity.

   Next came a modern song and dance performance, and the theme song "Fame" of "Famous" came to mind again.

   Ronald laughed, lead singer Erin Cara, now she can continue to sing her famous songs on TV again.

  It is said that hundreds of millions of people watched the TV broadcast of the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games. It is a blessing from God to be able to get acquainted here.

   "Beatit, Beatit", the song changed to the famous song in MJ's new album. The audience began to shout MJ's name enthusiastically. Many people regretted that he could not appear in the opening ceremony to sing live.

  “Under each audience’s seat, there is a jigsaw board. The audience is asked to raise the jigsaw boards and assemble them into the national flags of the main participating countries.”

  Ronald reached under the seat, took out a large yellow jigsaw puzzle, and held it above his head. "Please hold for ten seconds".

  Looking around, Ronald found himself holding up the jigsaw puzzle pieces of the stand, forming the national flag of Xinhua. This was really an unexpected surprise, he didn't know beforehand that the organizing committee had done this.

   "Three...two...one..." Thank you everyone.

   Ronald put down the jigsaw puzzle.

   "John Williams, please." The host called.

   "John, is he a live band host?" Spielberg took out a bottle of water and handed it to Ronald.

  John Williams, Star Wars, ET Aliens, Superman and other masterpieces composed music, picked up the baton, and began to direct the live band to play the Olympic theme song.

  The mayor of Los Angeles took over the Olympic flag, and then the athletes entered the arena.

   "Steven, can you talk about your opinion on the quality of directing live theater performances? Also, can I appear in your ET alien sequel."

  The girl who presented the flowers told the broadcast group about her discovery, and the broadcast group immediately sent a female reporter with a wireless microphone with a large antenna to interview Spielberg.

   "The director of this opening ceremony has redefined the word legendary." Spielberg pulled the antenna on the reporter's hat again, "Well, your alien looks good."

   "Hahaha, what do you think of the live cabaret show, John Williams conducting?"

   "You're going to ask my friend, Ronald Lee, for his opinion. He's the director of the hit movie 'Breakdance.'"

  The reporter quickly pushed the wireless microphone over.

   "Incomparable", Ronald flattered first, "The arrangement of the organizing committee is very good, showing all the major events since the founding of America. There is also the song of our superstar, MJ."

   "Do you think MJ should come to the opening ceremony?" The reporter continued with the question.

   “We are all looking forward to it, his songs are great, and it would be even better to see him perform his famous breakdancing moonwalk.”

   "Yeah!", Brooke finished the scene perfunctorily, and when the reporter finished the interview, she also climbed to the upper stand to meet Ronald.

   "Come on, the athletes are coming in," Spielberg said to the entrance of the stadium with a loose visor.

   "Greece is at the forefront!" The country represented by the sports team was broadcast live in French and English.

   One by one sports teams walked in.

   "Canada! They sent a huge delegation of more than 300 people."

   "Huh?" The Canadian delegation was still advancing, and Ronald suddenly heard a burst of familiar music.

  "Revolutionary soldiers must keep in mind,

  Three major disciplines and eight points of attention. "

   Ronald couldn't help singing.

   "Yeah? Do you know Chinese?" Spielberg heard that Ronald was singing in Chinese.

   "Learned a bit", Ronald stared at the entrance.

   At the beginning, a tall flag bearer entered the arena with a five-star red flag. The athletes behind were wearing blue tops, white trousers, and matching skirts, and walked in with neat steps.

"yeah!"

  When Huaguo's sports team entered the arena, all the spectators who passed by stood up and applauded. It's a tribute to them for being able to withstand the pressure of the Sowell League and compete for friendship and the Olympic spirit.

  Ronald also leaned out and applauded to the rhythm of the revolutionary song.

   "Mysterious country, if I have the opportunity, I must go there to make a movie." Spielberg is also very excited.

   "High jump, gymnastics, and women's volleyball. They have the potential to win medals." The host was broadcasting.

   "Women's volleyball, high jump, what else? Gymnastics?" Ronald secretly wrote down.

   The entrance ceremony took a long time, and Brooke was already leaning on Ronald's shoulder, so sleepy that she couldn't keep her eyes open.

   Finally waited until the opening session.

  The chairman of the Olympic Committee Samaranch invited the current leader of the host country to announce the opening of the Olympic Games.

"God bless America." Samaranch paid tribute to the host country with these words at the end. The previous two Olympic Games had caused huge losses. Fortunately, Uber Ross, the chairman of the Los Angeles Olympic Organizing Committee, is a capable Businessmen, who are expected to make money at the Olympics by selling sponsorship and broadcast rights, can be said to have saved the international Olympic movement.

   "I declare that the 23rd Modern Olympic Games will open in Los Angeles!"
