Exploiting Hollywood 1980

When Daniel woke up, he found himself lying on Master Miyagi's bed. He eagerly asked who saved him, and Miyagi smiled.

"It's you? It's impossible, right?"

"Why? I'm an old man?"

Miyagi took a cup of tea and handed it to Daniel, urging him to drink it and feel better.

"Why did you never tell me? You knew karate?"

"You never asked me."

"Where did you learn that?" Daniel still didn't believe it.

"Father, teach."

"I remember you said your father was a fisherman?"

Miyagi took a sip of hot tea and said, "Ryukyu, all Miyagi can do two things, fishing and karate."

"cut!"

Ronald stopped, "No, the mood here is wrong, Ralph. Daniel had to listen to Miyagi attentively. In his mind, Miyagi was no longer the kind repairman, but saved himself in a few clicks. Beat up four master karate students."

"I know, master, master..." Ralph Mazio thought for a while, then changed his gaze with admiration.

"That's good," Ronald turned to the camera crew beside the camera rail and said, "Let's do it again."

This is a five-minute long shot, and Ronald decided not to edit it, allowing the two actors to play the very important opening scene of the second act in one go.

Ronald's statement to Weintraub and Susan was that there were only Miyagi and Daniel in this scene. Not only did he tell the origin of karate, he also introduced Miyagi's different martial arts philosophies, and finally let Miyagi It tells the first "aha moment" in this movie where the audience suddenly realizes (meaning that the audience will make a cry of ahha when they see this).

In fact, Ronald is a bit selfish. Of course, the emotion of this scene is more coherent if it is performed in one breath, but it is not impossible to cut it into several shorter shots.

But good directors will shoot several long shots in their works, whether to show off their skills or intentionally, to show their control over the actors and crew.

Ronald got his third movie,

It’s time to have a few long shots that represent your abilities. In this way, major Hollywood studios will give him more big projects.

"!" Ronald ordered gently, as if he was afraid of scaring away the good chemistry between the two actors.

"Karate (karate) was introduced to Ryukyu from China in the 16th century. Te means hand. In Miyagi, Ryukyu, my old ancestor added kara, karate (karate)."

Noriyuki Morita corrected Ralph Mazzio's posture of holding a Japanese teacup with his hands, asking him to hold it from below instead of holding the teacup, so that his hands would not burn.

"I thought it came from Buddhist temples (Shaolin boxing)." This was the first time Daniel heard this theory about the origin of karate.

"You watch too much TV." Miyagi shook his head.

"My mother said so too." Daniel suddenly stared at Master Miyagi, "Have you ever had an apprentice before?"

"No." Miyagi twisted some herbal water into a towel and applied it to the scars on Daniel's face.

"Will you take on a disciple?"

"That depends on the situation." Miyagi pretended to be reserved. He picked up the tea cup and took a sip.

"What's going on?" Daniel asked very eagerly.

"reason?"

"For...revenge?" Daniel touched the scars on his face.

"Daniel-san, if you want revenge, you might as well dig a grave for yourself and your opponent first. Violence is always the last solution to all problems." Miyagi took a sip of water.

"Oh...Mr. Gong Cen, I don't mean any harm, but I think you don't understand my problem." Daniel was disappointed to hear the cliche from the TV series.

"Miya... Cheng, I completely understand your problem." Miyagi said while drinking tea, "Your friends are all students of the karate dojo, huh?"

"Friends? Oh, yes, them." Daniel was a little uncomfortable with Miyagi calling the Johnny Four "friends".

"The problem is huge, attitude problem..."

"Huh? No, the problem is that I get beaten up by them every few days. That's my problem."

"Alas... alas..." Miyagi interrupted Daniel in disgust, "Those kids have attitude issues, karate... can only be used for self-defense..."

"This is not an attitude their coach taught them."

"You can see," Miyagi put down the teacup, "There are no bad students, only bad teachers. Teachers teach and students learn."

"Oh, I understand," Daniel began to laugh at himself, "I just need to go to the dojo and talk to their teacher, and the problem will be solved."

"Well... you can finally use your head to think about problems instead of being beaten." Miyagi was very satisfied with Daniel's understanding.

"I'm joking." Daniel smiled bitterly.

"Why the joke?"

"Because if I go to their dojo, I'm afraid they will kill me on the spot." Daniel exaggerated.

"Hmph... You're dead anyway whether you go or not." Miyagi picked up the tea cup again and drank.

"Can you go to their dojo with me?" Daniel frowned, and he suddenly remembered that Miyagi in front of him was a karate master.

"no."

"Why? Didn't you say this was a good idea?"

"Alas... alas..." Miyagi shook his head in disgust, "It's a good idea for you, I'll go for it. A good idea for me, don't worry too much."

Daniel was speechless, he didn't expect Miyagi to say such words.

"Then thank you for leaving me alone. You also caused me trouble and beat them up. Don't help me anymore, let them beat me, and I will get beaten less." Daniel stood up and walked towards the door angrily. Go.

"Daniel-san", Miyagi also felt that something was wrong. He had indeed intervened and he could not just let the child be beaten again.

He stood up from the stool and walked towards Daniel who stopped in front of the door.

Ronald made a pushing gesture, and the coolie pushing the camera began to push the camera forward at a very slow speed.

Miyagi's body in the viewfinder slowly grew taller as the camera moved forward.

When the audience sees this, they will have a psychological guidance. We always enlarge those important characters in our hearts.

"Okay, I'll go." Miyagi nodded in agreement.

"That's great, that's great, Mr. Gong Cen." Daniel ran back from the door happily.

"Miyagi..." Master Miyagi handed Daniel the handkerchief stained with herbs and asked him to apply it on his face.

"Mr. Miya...cheng, who are you?" Daniel returned to his curious look.

"You like the canvas one? Haha..." Miyagi lifted up his clothes and showed Daniel his belt, "I bought it from J.C. Penney for three dollars and ninety-eight cents."

"I'm not asking about that, I'm asking about karate belts." Daniel thought Miyagi had misunderstood what he meant.

"In Ryukyu, trouser belt means that you don't need straw rope to tie your trousers, hahaha"

"Then... this joke is funny." Seeing that Miyagi didn't answer, Daniel thought that he didn't have any rank, so he turned around to leave in disappointment. "

"Daniel-san..." Miyagi stopped laughing and called Daniel.

Ronald made another open-finger gesture, and the DP very slowly began to zoom in on the camera.

Everyone held their breath. This long shot finally reached the end. It depends on Morita Noriyuki's performance and whether he can draw a perfect ending.

As the camera slowly zoomed in, Master Miyagi became taller and taller in the viewfinder.

"Karate, here..." Miyagi hit his head with his fist.

"Karate, here..." Miyagi pointed to his heart again.

"Karate, never here."

Miyagi patted his belt one last time.

"You...understand...?"

Miyagi smiled slightly, this young man had a good understanding, "Good night, Daniel-san."

Miyagi leaned forward slightly and bowed to Daniel in farewell.

"Good night...Gong Cen...Master Miyagi." Daniel panicked and bowed too, then walked out of the door.

"Tomorrow morning?" Daniel remembered before going out that he hadn't made an appointment yet.

"Ten o'clock," Miyagi answered.

"cut!"

Ronald yelled, and his first long shot of nearly five minutes was completed.

"Bravo!" Weintraub, who was next to him, also shouted, leading all the staff in applause.

"You are such a genius. All American boys will fall in love with this wise master-disciple dialogue." Weintraub was very happy. The second long shot that he was most worried about was shot perfectly.

Ronald and the director of photography confirmed that the footage was available, and he was very happy, "No, mainly because Ralph and Morita rehearsed very well. Every action and every line of dialogue here needs to be layered."

"It's very well done. We ended up filming here today." Ronald praised the two leading actors. The actors need constant affirmation from the director.

Unlike drama actors, who can always get feedback on the quality of their performance from the audience, when making a movie, most of the time, the actor only has the director as an audience. Only the director can give them feedback on whether their performance is good or not.

Hearing what Ronald said, the two leading actors also breathed a sigh of relief.

"Hmph, let your film critics say that I don't know how to direct directing skills, and let your film review programs say that I don't know how to shoot long shots." Ronald felt comfortable and scolded those film critics in his heart.

The next day, the crew moved to the Cobra Club. Started filming the scene where Miyagi takes Daniel alone into the cobra's lair.

Coach Chris, played by Martin Kove, has a background as a police officer. The philosophy he learned on the battlefield was to take no prisoners and strike first. He also started shouting loudly at the students.

"I……"

The students also stepped forward and punched, and then shouted in agreement with Chris, "Kill..."

"I……"

"kill……"

The arrival of Miyagi and Daniel interrupted the Cobras' training.

"I heard that you beat up my student? And you said that my karate is not as good as yours?" Chris was wearing a sleeveless gi. "Do you want a fair fight? Johnny, come and fight this master ''s disciple Daniel comes to have a show."

"Yes, Master." Johnny had dark circles under his eyes and wanted to take revenge, so he agreed loudly.

"Well...you are taking too much advantage of your dojo." Miyagi began to find reasons, Daniel still needs training.

"Then tell me a place." Chris had full confidence in his disciple.

"Tournament." Miyagi turned towards the wall.

On the wall is a poster, "All Valley Regional Karate Championships, December 19th."

"You really have the guts, old man, you really have the guts." Chris sneered, "But I think I can promise you."

Next to him, Daniel, played by Ralph Marzio, had a very frightened look in his eyes. Didn't he say he was coming to make peace? Why are you still playing tournaments? I can't.

"One more little thing." Miyagi said to Chris who was walking back into the dojo.

"What's the matter?"

"The boy needs training. Don't hit him before." Miyagi said one word at a time.

Chris understood, "You are really an old man who likes to push your limits, but I like it. Everyone, don't touch that bragging boy...Daniel before the championship."

"Cut!" Ronald has never been so smooth since he started directing. He seems to be directing in a field, and all his ideas can be reflected in the actors.

It’s like what Miyagi said in the movie about how to cut a bonsai. Before shooting, Ronald had in his mind the look of the final film he wanted to shoot.

Of course...part of it is indeed true, as was the case in several fragments of his dream.

"Director Ronald..." A short actor, also wearing the white karate uniform of the Cobra Dojo, came over to say hello to Ronald.

"Hi, Andrew, where's your sister?" Ronald recognized Elizabeth Sue's brother Andrew, and he arranged for him to play a small supporting role in the dojo.

"She went to exercise and said she was afraid you would say she was fat." Little Andrew sold his sister without hesitation.

"Hahaha, you go back and tell her, keep it up, I will shoot her most beautiful scene tomorrow."
