Exploiting Hollywood 1980

"Hi, how are you?" After Ronald finished shooting for the day, he called Diane when he returned home. It was already very late in New York time, but she was not asleep yet.

"Ronnie, you called me to ask me this. It feels weird. It's like Bert is calling me." Diane was listening there, "I'm fine. Director Coppola is about to ask me to edit." I'm a little reluctant to have short hair. From now on, I don't have to call you every day if I have nothing to do."

The two chatted for a while, Diane yawned a few times, and Ronald hung up the phone and started preparing for tomorrow's shooting.

Breaking news came on TV again. The commander-in-chief delivered a speech at the airport in the afternoon when he took Marine One (helicopter) and transferred to Air Force One (presidential plane) to California.

The commander-in-chief walked out of the Marine Corps in a dark suit, and his wife Nancy wore a white dress and a black skirt. The two walked hand in hand to the podium to speak. "First of all, we condemn this act of shooting at civilian aviation by fighter jets, which is barbaric. The Soviet Union's invasion of Afghanistan in the past few years has shown that they have no will to stop this barbaric act..."

"Hmm... This is a bit strange. Why do fighter jets fight for civil aviation? If you have the ability to compete with American fighter jets..." Ronald thought.

The next night, the story progressed to the point where several Cobra Dojo disciples, played by the second-generation stars, bullied Daniel.

Several disciples from the dojo were riding Honda motorcycles on the dirt road in the mountains. Daniel was also riding a scooter on this road.

Johnny saw Daniel eating with Ali in the cafeteria beside him. He stepped on the accelerator and let his companions pass by Daniel one by one. .

The frightened Daniel was pushed out of the dirt road and rolled down the hillside. He was smashed to pieces, and the scooter was also thrown out of shape.

"Cut!" Ronald stopped the filming. The stuntman was wearing the same sportswear as Ralph Marzio and was rolling very well.

Then Mazio also lay on the ground and took a close-up shot of rolling around for a week, so that after editing together, the audience would not realize that this part was shot by a stuntman.

The filming went very smoothly. Ronald tempered his temper a little and the progress started to speed up again.

Daniel carried the scooter back home, and his face was scratched by the dirt road. He was very angry that he could not confront Johnny and his gang, and threw the broken scooter into the trash can.

Mother Lucille felt distressed, but Daniel was so angry at his own incompetence that he could only go back to sleep. But Master Miyagi secretly watched and repaired Daniel's bicycle.

Master Miyagi returned the repaired bicycle to Daniel, and also taught Daniel how to prune potted plants. He should first think about what he needs in his mind before doing it. Daniel gradually began to admire and get close to Master Miyagi. Such a father's role is exactly what is missing in his life.

Halloween soon came, and Daniel had nowhere to go. He went to Master Miyagi's house and saw Miyagi peeling Halloween jack-o-lanterns. Miyagi persuaded Daniel to go to school for more Halloween parties, but Daniel said he didn't have the right makeup.

Miyagi helped Daniel fulfill his wish to paint a "dress that no one can see", using copper rings and curtains to make a look like "a person taking a shower".

Daniel came to the party wearing a shower look, but was recognized by Ali at a glance, and burst into laughter. She got into Daniel's shower and danced with him, expressing her distaste for Johnny in her words.

Daniel went to the bathroom and happened to see Johnny rolling grass in the pit. He remembered what Ali said and wanted to prank revenge on Johnny, so he connected the water pipe to the faucet and secretly poured water all over Johnny.

Johnny was so angry that he found three disciples from the Cobra Gym played by Star II to chase Daniel. They all dressed up in skeleton Halloween costumes and chased Ralph Mazzio to Daniel's apartment.

"cut!"

After filming the scene of one escaping and three chasing, the first real martial arts scene of the movie begins. Daniel ran to the barbed wire fence outside the apartment, but did not climb over it. He was caught and beaten by Johnny and others, and he was about to faint. Master Miyagi fell from the sky, beat away the kid from the Cobra Gym, and saved Daniel.

This turning point is about one-fifth of the total length of the movie. In terms of drama theory, it is the turning point where the first act of the movie is completed and the second act begins.

It turned Master Miyagi from a repairman to a karate master, and also gave Daniel the idea to learn karate from Miyagi to prevent Johnny and his gang from beating him up again.

Ronald found Noriyuki Morita's stand-in, the real karate black belt master Fumio Demura. This is the moment when Master Miyagi reveals his true face for the first time.

"After we finish filming the scene where Johnny and others beat up Daniel, you will climb up the barbed wire fence from behind, then fall from the sky, beat a few of them, and finally make a karate preparation posture in front of the camera, so that the audience can see that you are a karate master. That kind of thing.”

Demura Fumio is the same as Miyagi in the story. He is a real Japanese who doesn't speak much English. Ronald explained the shooting requirements in simple language and then started shooting.

For outdoor shooting at night, the headlights were arranged in a row to try to create the light of the street lights at the entrance of the apartment at night.

"Recording? Okay"

"Camera? Full speed"

"!"

William Zebka and the three Star IIs were wearing Halloween costumes with skulls painted on their faces, and even Ronald couldn't tell who they were.

Several people surround Daniel, played by Ralph Marzio, and start pushing him around until one of them kicks him.

"Cobra's faith takes no prisoners." Johnny grabbed Daniel and yelled crazily, venting the anger in his heart that his ex-girlfriend was robbed.

"Take no prisoners," Chad McQueen, the second-generation star, shouted the loudest and most energetically.

Gu Shao

Ronald was grinning, which must have been fun to film.

He raised his hand to stand-in Demura Fumio behind the barbed wire fence.

Fumio Demura wore Miyagi's repairman clothes, a wig and a fake beard, climbed up the barbed wire fence in twos and twos, and then fell from the sky.

"Ha!, Ha!..." Fumio Demura seemed to be a god descending from the earth. After jumping from the barbed wire fence, he repeatedly hit several actors led by Chad McQueen in the bar to the ground.

"Ah...ah...it hurts..." Ron Thomas yelled as his leg was stuck by Demura.

"Ah..." Then came Chad McQueen, who was thrown to the ground by a back shot from Demura, begging for mercy loudly.

"Help..." The last second-generation star was Rob Garrison. Seeing how badly his two companions were thrown, he simply ran away towards the camera.

"Cut! cut!" Ronald quickly stopped, "What's going on? How could you not follow the position just now?"

"Director, Demura's beating hurts too much and I can't bear it." Ron Thomas has the best foundation in martial arts among the three and has practiced it before. But even he couldn't stand Demura's heavy hand.

"No, don't you want to be a star? Why can't you bear this little pain?" Ronald threw his hat to the ground in anger. The beginning of this shot was very good. If they had endured ten more seconds and lay still on the ground, this shot would have been completed successfully.

"Director, Mr. Demura is really heavy-handed." William Zebka also came over and complained to Ronald in a low voice, "The kick just now was not effective even with protective measures. He kicked my crotch and it hurt a lot. "Zebka rubbed his inner thighs with his hands, and his voice changed a bit when he spoke.

"Huh?" Ronald looked at Zebka's protective measures. This is a magic weapon passed down from Hollywood western movies. The actor who is kicked in the crotch will use a rope to tie tightly around both ankles, and pass the trouser leg in the middle to tighten the rope.

A kick like this looks like it's kicking the crotch, but it actually hits the rope, but there's no problem keeping the balls.

The strength of Demura's hands and feet was so great that even with a rope, Zebka was still frightened.

"What should we do? Can you be gentler, Mr. Demura?" Ronald walked towards Demura, who stood there not knowing what happened. Ronald talked to him for a few words, but couldn't get the point. He had to call Noriyuki Morita over and ask him to translate it to the village.

"Hi, hi..." Noriyuki Morita and Fumio Demura communicated well and said to Ronald, "Demura said that he is already very light. If it is any lighter, it will have no impact and will affect the reputation of karate."

"This?" Ronald touched his head, "Is there such a thing?"

"Hi..." Noriyuki Morita translated to Ronald again, "Mr. Demura suggested that you can let his disciples perform this scene. He guarantees that it can be successful in the first time. Anyway, the audience will not recognize your skeleton costume. Find out who it is."

"What do you say?" Ronald looked at the three stars and Zebka. Before they started filming, they even claimed that they were karate masters, unlike Morita who had to be a stunt double for all action scenes.

"I, let's let Mr. Demura's disciples come."

After suffering a few iron fists, they obediently took off their costumes and waited for the disciples to come out of the village.

"!"

Fumio Demura jumped off the barbed wire fence again, "Hi!, Hi!,..." He immediately held down the head of a skeleton man who was about to hit Daniel. Then two kicks brought them down.

Then he found Chad McQueen's stand-in, caught the opponent's kick with both hands, kicked him in the crotch, and then hooked his other foot on the ground. The opponent obeyed fell to the ground. Demura went up and stepped on the crotch again to ensure that he had lost his fighting ability.

Finally, Demura found Zebka's stand-in, "Hi!", and put him to the ground with a back shot.

"Cut!" Ronald stopped happily. Only a professional karate master like Demura and his disciples could capture such a beautiful battle.

"Are you convinced?" Ronald turned to look at the Star II Generations.

"I'm done with it, I'm done with it," Chad McQueen's eyes almost popped out of his head. He couldn't help but fearfully protect his crotch with his hands. If he hadn't had a substitute, he would have been kicked twice. crotch.

"Arigado!" Ronald thanked Demura Fumio in the past. Such a wonderful fight will add a lot of color to the movie. What's more, Demura and his disciples cooperated with each other tacitly, and the filming was completed in one take without rehearsal.

"Hi!..." Demura said a bunch of Japanese, and then stood motionless.

"It's alright, Mr. Demura, you can rest now. You've finished shooting today's scene." Ronald asked him to rest in the RV.

"Hi..." Demura said a bunch of Japanese again.

One of his disciples couldn't stand it anymore, so he came over and said to Ronald in English, "My teacher's crotch is torn. It tore when he exerted force. The seams of this suit are sewn on one side, so it's not very good." prison."

"Okay, costume, costume, get a pair of pants from Mr. Tsumura... um, get a blanket."

Ronald suppressed his laughter and quickly let Demura go to rest.
