American fame and fortune

Chapter 856 This kneeling is earth-shattering

The TV station's live camera focused on the two people on the rostrum. At this stage of the campaign, national heroes Alexandrovich and Alexei were already the only candidates to lead the University of Ukraine.

The huge conference center was packed with seats, and supporters from both sides gradually fell into a frenzy as the debates took place on the rostrum.

Compared with Alexey, who has been in politics for many years, Alexandrovich is a complete newcomer to politics.

But he is a hero of this country and has unparalleled appeal among the people.

Of course, with this alone, Alexandrovich would have been eliminated long ago.

He also has the support of huge forces behind him.

The debate was extremely heated, and the topic came to Wudong and its neighbor Damao, which are particularly critical to Ukraine.

The relationship between the two countries is particularly sensitive. Under the guidance of the media for decades, most Uzbek people are inclined to the West in their hearts, and they are increasingly disgusted with their eastern neighbors who were once compatriots.

Relations with the East have an extremely important impact on public opinion in the election.

As a newbie in politics, Alexandrovich gradually fell behind in the debate.

Alexei completely took advantage and decided to give his opponent a fatal blow.

"The east side is getting tougher and tougher, and the threat to us is getting bigger and bigger. They always want to split Wudong's territory!" Alexey stared at Alexandrovich and asked: "And what about you? What is your relationship with the east side? Ambiguous, I have cooperated with people from the east many times in the past!”

He raised his voice, looked at the thousands of people in the audience, looked at the camera lens, and said loudly: "Compatriots, if Alexandrovich comes to power, he will lead Ukraine to destruction! I am afraid that he, a weakling, will Vladimir of the East kneels down!”

Alexey's supporters in the audience roared, shouted crazily, and attacked Alexandrovich.

The live TV camera also turned to Alexandrovich, giving him a close-up of his face.

This issue is critical. In this country, except for parts of Wudong, the west wind basically dominates the east wind.

Simply denying is not effective, and the same goes for direct verbal counterattacks.

Alexandrovich knew very well that since Alexey dared to question him like this, there must be other preparations later.

Compared with this experienced old fox, his rank is lower. If he follows the opponent's routine, he will inevitably encounter blows one after another.

Alexandrovich thought of what Martin had said a few days ago and knew that he must not follow Alexei's routine.

Otherwise, you will definitely lose.

Alexandrovich looked up at the audience, where supporters were waiting for him.

Martin said on the phone that when facing the public, you must do a good job to make them feel sincere!

That's right, it's sincerity, the sincerity that comes from a national hero.

Alexandrovich is a national hero of Ukraine, and Martin is a national hero of the United States.

Therefore, Alexandrovich felt that Martin's words could be applied to him.

Martin's careful teaching over the past few years plays a key role at this moment.

Alexandrovich did not follow Alexei's routine and did not even answer Alexei's question.

He took the microphone, stood up and left his seat, and went directly to the front and center of the rostrum. Facing thousands of Ukrainian people in front of him, hundreds of media reporters, and live TV cameras, he bent his legs and fell to his knees.

Alexandrovich fell to his knees on the rostrum!

Although kneeling is not that serious in the West, everyone in the audience and on the stage was in a daze for a moment, not knowing what this man was going to do.

This kneeling was earth-shattering!

Alexandrovich shouted: "I will not kneel to Vladimir, I will only kneel in the name of the Ukrainian people!"

There was silence at first, and then an overwhelming applause broke out. Not only Alexandrovich's supporters, but also many people who originally supported Alexey were applauding Alexandrovich vigorously.

In front of the TV, countless Ukrainian people were moved by Alexandrovich.

Many people have an idea: "The previous commander-in-chief was a businessman and politician who told lies. Maybe this national hero can really make Ukraine different."

In this debate, Alexandrovich won an unexpected victory, and his support rate soared.

Perhaps at this moment, Alexei's defeat was determined.

On the way back from the debate, Alexandrovich called the company: "Contact the North American side to confirm the performance date of the Saints in Los Angeles as soon as possible, and let Nastya, Erica and Misha prepare some Surprise, they understand.”

The car drove past the 1+1 TV station.

Alexandrovich looked at the huge sign erected on the roof of the TV station building, and felt more and more that Martin was more important than Igor. If he wanted to secure this position in the future, North America would be the key.

There is no doubt that Igor's Provas Group will be an excellent gift.

…………

Rosarito Island, Baja California.

The crew of "Shark Beach" has officially started filming in the Bay Area.

The weather has been good these days, but the weather forecast is that the wind and waves will get worse next week. Martin has slightly adjusted the shooting plan. He will shoot an outdoor scene first. When the weather gets bad, the crew will return to the studio area to shoot the scene in the studio.

All the storylines of the film take place in the big scene of the bay beach.

Compared with other crews who frequently switch locations to shoot location scenes, the crew of "Shark Beach" indeed faced much less trouble.

As his directorial debut, Martin chose "Shark Tank", which was also opportunistic.

In the sea water, Blake, wearing an orange-red bikini, lay on the surfboard, paddling with his hands and swimming forward.

Martin wore a headset and sat on a nearby boat, looking at the director's monitor in front of him.

There were two boats nearby, and two photographers photographed Blake's performance from different angles.

Martin only needs to tell them what kind of shot he wants and how to achieve it, it is the film crew's business.

Among the directors he has worked with in the past, Nolan is the kind of person who likes to shoot by himself. David Fincher and Chad Starsky are both directors who rarely actually operate the camera.

The filming was completely left to the photography team.

Professional people do professional things.

In addition, the first assistant director Steven Downton is on Martin's boat and can assist Martin in solving problems as soon as he encounters them.

Martin only needs to focus on the camera.

The film crew is experienced and has worked with Martin on the "John Wick" trilogy, so there is no doubt about their ability.

Of course, Martin was more of a leading man at that time.

But the two sides knew enough that as long as Martin said the lens effect he wanted, the film crew would quickly understand it.

Most of the shots produced will satisfy Martin.

If you are not satisfied individually, the two parties can communicate again and it can be resolved.

Blake shouted to the empty sea in front of him: "Hey, I'm here to surf too."

There was no one there at all, and the shots were all shot separately. The dialogue between the two sides will then be realized through cross-editing.

Blake smiled and asked, "What's the name of this beach?"

On the director's monitor, the footage shot by the main camera was transmitted in real time.

The camera followed Blake's long legs, swept up her hot figure, and landed on her slightly old-looking face.

Martin couldn't help frowning when he saw Blake's bright and enthusiastic smile, picked up the loudspeaker at hand, and shouted: "Stop!"

The crew that was busy filming immediately stopped operations.

Black's originally tilted head fell back onto the surfboard, lying on it not wanting to move.

Although he had enough expectations for the difficulty of performing the scenes in the water, when it came to filming, Blake found that it was much more difficult than imagined. The resistance of the water was too great. He had to maintain the posture of moving forward in the water and maintain the performance state at all times, which was physically demanding. It is several times that of usual filming.

Martin glanced at Blake and said, "Rest for fifteen minutes." He waved into the water: "Blake, come up."

Blake rowed to the back of the boat, walked onto the back deck, took the blanket from the assistant, wrapped it around himself, and went to where Martin was on the front deck.

Martin was communicating with Steve Downton: "Is there something wrong with the performance of this scene? Nancy, a beautiful and sexy single woman, met two men on such a rarely visited beach..."

Steve Downton reacted immediately and said: "According to the setting of Nancy's self-rescue later on, she should maintain a certain degree of vigilance."

Martin saw Blake coming and pointed to the chair next to him: "Sit."

Black sat next to Martin and asked, "Is there something wrong with my performance just now?"

Most directors in Hollywood will not let actors see the footage during filming, unless the actor is very powerful.

Ten years ago, this was even an unwritten rule in Hollywood.

Times have changed, and part-time directors like Martin, who has become a monk on the way, don't have to pay so much attention to it. He can directly adjust the monitor and replay the footage he just shot.

Blake watched it carefully. She was not a very intelligent actor. In terms of acting skills alone, there were countless supporting actors in Hollywood who could kill her instantly.

Martin asked: "Do you see the problem?"

Blake grabbed his wet blond hair and asked, "Is there something wrong with my posture? I pressed my balls into a pancake, causing my figure to be not sexy and hot enough in the photo?"

Steve couldn't help but glance at Blake, and finally understood why she still couldn't get to the front line despite her second-generation celebrity aura, her father being a well-known producer, and Martin supporting her below.

A lot of resources but average acting talent.

"Nancy should have basic vigilance when meeting two strange men on this rarely visited beach." Martin repeated what he just said.

Blake nodded: "Yes, I ignored this. I will pay attention to the next performance."

Martin said no more: "Let's take a rest."

He and Steve came to the side, waiting for another ship to approach, and discussed with the director of photography Dan Rostesin what to pay attention to during the subsequent shooting.

The break was fleeting, Blake was back in the water, and filming began again.

During the filming break, Blake, who was wearing a bikini, also took some selfies of surfing as requested by Martin and posted them on Twitter and INS.

"The filming of my new film has started, and the content will remain the same for the time being. It is related to the sea."

The Lace Leader's social media post quickly attracted the attention of fans.

"Blake is still in such good shape."

"I would like to call it the best figure among Hollywood actresses!"

"This movie won't be filmed in swimsuits all the time, right? If it does, I'll go to the theater to support it with a $20 ticket!"

"Strongly request bloggers to take full swimsuit photos!"

"Support +1!"

"support……"

After several years of long-term development, as a fitness guru, fashion blogger and lace guru, Blake Lively's influence on social media far exceeds her status as a Hollywood star.

If she were an ordinary actress, she might just become an internet celebrity.

But Blake Lively comes from a Hollywood family and has a great pursuit of status in the industry. However, his ability in publicity and marketing far exceeds his acting skills.

She was well aware of the weight and attention that would come with Martin's directorial debut.

As for whether the film will be successful or not.

Blake actually had no confidence in Martin, but she had full confidence in Martin's ability to make money.

Take a look at the directors of various departments on the production team. People outside the industry may not have heard of them, but everyone inside the industry knows that they are all experienced elites in their respective fields.

Moreover, Martin is decisive, not arrogant, and can listen to opinions.

Another key point is that the producer of the film, Louise Lyle, is one of the few female gold medal producers in Hollywood. With her in charge of the overall situation, even if the film is not very good, it will not be bad.

After a few more scenes were filmed, Blake was panting from exhaustion and sat on the boat not wanting to move.

Her eyes passed through Overtime and landed on Martin.

Martin was focusing on his work, discussing with several assistant directors how to shoot the next scenes.

The entire crew ran very smoothly, and there was no sign that the director was a novice at all.

Blake calmed his breathing and secretly sighed that Chao's ability was really amazing.

She looked at Martin from a distance and suddenly felt that this film might really be successful.

Even if he fails, it doesn't matter. It's been almost ten years since he met Martin in 2005, and Black knows what kind of person Martin is.

Super playboy is not enough to describe him, and it is not too much to say he is a sex addict.

But Martin is also a man of conscience, and if the film does fail, Black feels that Martin will definitely compensate for himself in other ways.

She was very confident about this.

Thinking of this, Blake suddenly looked up at the sky and slapped himself hard.

If she hadn't done it before, Elizabeth Olsen's position should have been hers!

"It's almost evening, transition!" Assistant Director Robert Eggers shouted: "Props team! Drag the buoy over and drag it to the marked point!"

A speedboat towed the buoy towards the deep sea.

Martin looked at his watch and said, "Hurry up, we only have one hour to shoot the sunset scene!"

The whole crew was busy.

Blake got up to warm up for the upcoming shoot.

The scenes where the heroine fights with sharks are basically shot in a studio.

Martin said to his deputy Steve: "Take a long-range wide-angle shot facing the sunset." He glanced at the sun approaching the seaside: "Time waits for no one, and we will start shooting in ten minutes."

Steve nodded and hurried to arrange the set.
