Exploiting Hollywood 1980

"Is this what Akira Kurosawa wrote for you?" Agent Niceta came to Ronald's apartment and watched as Ronald hung the banner in Kurosawa's handwriting and framed by a master from Los Angeles Chinatown in the living room. on the wall.

"Yes, it means hard work in Chinese." Ronald asked Niceta to see if the left and right sides were even, and then jumped off the stool.

Diane received the advertising remuneration, and not long after staying in Los Angeles, she went to various places with the "Cotton Club" crew to promote the film. In addition to various places in America, she also went to Europe, especially the United States, for marketing. Coppola hasn't given up on trying to make this big production recoup its money at the box office.

Inspired by Coppola, Diane also wanted to give it another try, in case he could become famous in Europe and continue his career as an A-level actor. There are also actors who have made a name for themselves in European film festivals and then returned to Hollywood, such as Jacqueline Bisset in her early years.

Ronald, who is single again, spends these days with retired Navy Captain Pete Pettigrew, designing the flight movements of the F-14A Tomcat.

Ronald had flown in the F5 fighter of the Blue Angels aerobatic team. From his experience in the sky, he designed a fighter jet to leave the aircraft carrier, and then shot footage of the aircraft carrier from the tail fin of the fighter jet.

Taken from a fighter jet that rolled 360 degrees, the aircraft carrier slowly moving on the sea seemed to have also turned over. This was Ronald's intuitive feeling in the cockpit of the Blue Angel. The blue sky and the sea surface were in harmony. The pilot's eyes turned upside down.

He wanted moviegoers to get a real sense of what it was like to be in the cockpit.

But Pettigrew told him that the Blue Angels' F5 could do it, but the F-14 Tomcat couldn't. The F-14 Tomcat is a large fighter with twin engines and twin vertical tails. Because this kind of aircraft has two vertical tails, the directionality of the nose is much stronger than the rolling ability of the fuselage.

After taking off and leaving the aircraft carrier, if the pull rod makes a roll, it is most likely that the nose of the aircraft is pointing in the direction of the pull rod, rather than the fuselage rolling rapidly. To make the action he wants, he needs an ace pilot to fly to be successful.

Ronald benefited a lot from the communication with the flight instructor. He and Pettigrew improved many of the aircraft's flight shots. Grumman's engineers, directors and flight instructors formed a three-person team, and gradually Ronald De's vision can actually be photographed.

"Ally Xidi is also a client of CAA this time. I hope you can favor her a little during the audition."

Niceta is here to implement the packaging project. In addition to Ronald and Tom Cruise, he also wanted to stuff some supporting characters into the movie.

"certainly,

She was my first choice and that of both producers. "

Don Simpson and Jerry Bruckheimer later came to Ronald's apartment, bringing with them audition photos of several of their favorite candidates to play the pilot.

"This is Val Kilmer, this is Anthony Edwards, this is Emilio Estevez, and this is Tim Robbins." Bruckheimer placed photos of several young male actors on the table Upper hem.

"They are all full of hormones." Ronald noticed their square chins, "It's just that Emilio is a bit hunched, which is not suitable for the role of a pilot."

"I don't plan to do large-scale auditions. The three of us will find suitable candidates first, and then invite auditions." Don Simpson made a sniffing gesture.

"Don, you know my rules, don't bring these things to my house." Ronald hated this habit of his and couldn't help but objected.

"Okay, okay, I know you keep your integrity, so I won't be in front of you anymore." Don Simpson said and walked out of the apartment.

Bruckheimer also shrugged. His partner's behavior also made him uncomfortable, but America is a free country, and even as a good partner, he couldn't meddle in Simpson's business.

"Ally Xidi will come to the studio for an audition tomorrow. We will let her put on the uniform first. I have a feeling that she is the person we are looking for." Bruckheimer talked about tomorrow's audition for the heroine.

"St. Elmo's Fire" directed by Joe Schumacher and written by Cameron Crowe has been filmed and packed, and several leading actors have been released.

Ronald and the two producers first chose Ally Sheedy, and Ronald felt that Demi Moore was also suitable for the role of Charlie, the flight instructor.

"St. Elmo's Fire" has finished filming, and the two leading ladies, Ally Sheedy and Demi Moore, can audition.

…

"Good, we need a working girl feel."

In the studio of the two producers, Ali Sheidi put on a uniform, big red lips, sexy black stockings, high heels and a one-step skirt, and twisted in front of the camera. show yourself.

With shoulder-length short hair and the soft facial features of a typical white beauty, Ali Xidi's sexiness reveals a hint of intellectual beauty.

In "St. Elmo's Fire", she played the role of a working girl, and now she has been slightly adjusted to a slightly more mature look. Ally Sheedy plays the role very naturally.

"When can I get the complete script of the movie?" After finishing the audition, Ali Xidi came over and asked Ronald, who was familiar with her.

"The complete script is still being revised and will be submitted to the Navy and Paramount for review." Ronald gave an outline of the story, and then gave a shortened version that only related to the part related to Charlie played by Ali Sheedy. Story to her.

"Doesn't it... look like a big music video?" Ali Xidi hurriedly turned over the script and said to Ronald in confusion.

"It's okay to put it this way. This is originally a western movie with fighter jets dueling, good guys, bad guys, heroes, and beauties."

"Oh...", Ali Xidi took the script and left.

…

Two days later, Ally Sheedy officially rejected the invitation from the "Top Gun" crew, stating that she was unwilling to play Charlie in the film due to time conflicts.

"Her agent is from CAA. Please help me make an appointment with her, and I will chat with her in person." Ronald was a little surprised when he was rejected.

Although Ally Sheedy has starred in two teen movies in a row, "The Breakfast Club" and "St. Elmo's Fire" have not yet been released. It is said that she does not have enough capital to refuse Paramount 1,500. The heroine of a million-dollar production.

"Don't be like this, Ronald, we should find another actress to audition. I heard some rumors that Ali Xidi is biased against you. This Bichi will probably not join the crew." Nicita had not seen her for a day, and she had already Ellie was demoted from a rising star to a bitch.

"What prejudice?" Ronald was confused.

"Ellie went to Emilio Estevez specifically for consultation. Emilio comes from a family of actors and is very prestigious among those young actors. I also heard what Ellie's agent told me. ” Niceta quietly revealed the middle of the story to Ronald.

Emilio Estevez was very dissatisfied with Ronald, who was also a young man. He believed that Ronald was just lucky and knew nothing about the performing arts and could only make shallow exploitation films.

His views influenced Ally Sheedy, who was pursuing an acting career. She had opinions on taking on a movie like "Top Gun" where there were no acting requirements, as long as she showed up beautifully and became a vase.

More importantly, Emilio Estevez told Ellie a fact:

No one in Hollywood has made a movie about fighter combat in 40 years. I'm afraid it's very likely that this movie will fail at the box office.

In addition, Emilio was also jealous of Tom Cruise's popularity and said a lot of bad things about Tom, such as that he couldn't read scripts, might not be literate, etc.

Ally Sheedy knew that Emilio and Tom Cruise had starred in "The Kid" and did not doubt his statement. She told her agent:

"No one will watch a big video with Tom Cruise flying a plane in the sky. I don't want to accompany him in a 120-minute video."

"If she is really not interested, she can just refuse the audition. Why does she still come to the audition, and after she comes, she still says such things? Even if she has opinions, can't she communicate with me first?"

Ronald was very angry. This Emilio always liked to gossip about himself behind people's backs. Didn't I just beat him in table tennis on the set and then stopped him from playing a prank on Diane? As for that?

"He feels that you have taken away everything that originally belonged to him, being successful as a teenager, writing and directing movies by yourself, and dating Diane Lane, a teenage idol." Niceta saw it more accurately, "This Martin Sheen's The eldest son has very high expectations for himself."

"shxt! How could anyone have such an idea?" Ronald felt uncomfortable, "Then let's try it with Demi Moore."

"Haha, isn't she Emilio's..." Niceta hesitated.

"What's wrong with her? She looks good in the uniform...well...I mean her body is suitable for the uniform...I mean...her husky voice suits it better."

Demi Moore went to the studio to audition behind the back of her boyfriend Emilio Estevez.

"Very good, please make an appearance facing the camera, facing sideways, and with your back to the camera." Ronald directed Demi to perform three appearances.

"This office girl uniform suits you perfectly, Demi," Ronald said, emerging from behind the camera.

"Thank you, is that okay? If you need anything else from me, you can ask me." Demi Moore licked her lips with her tongue, her husky voice was very sexy.

Ronald exchanged opinions with the two producers, "Charlie's identity in our script has not been finalized yet. If it is convenient for you, it would be better if you could try on this navy uniform."

"No problem." After a while, Demi came out of the dressing room, wearing a dark blue navy uniform and a white navy hat, which highlighted her very good figure. She posed for the camera lens again.

When her back was turned to the camera, Demi raised her buttocks intentionally or unintentionally. Under the skirt of her navy dress, she wore black stockings with a high heel. The black silk stockings started from the heels and went straight into the skirt from the middle seam behind the legs, as if Sending a seductive signal to the audience.

"Is this okay for me?" A hoarse voice came from Demi, and Ronald and the two producers both changed their legs and raised them to their knees.

Apparently, Don Simpson and Jerry Bruckheimer were also pleased with her.

"Very good, Demi, we have the result and will notify your agent. Then we will let you audition with the male lead candidate to see the chemical reaction."

Ronald got a signal of agreement from the two producers and turned to Demi.

"Plop..." Demi seemed to be overly excited and threw herself to the ground.

"Demi, Demi..." Ronald stepped forward and patted her face.

Oops!

Ronald was so startled that he was foaming at the mouth.

He remembered that Demi had fainted like this in her apartment. This was an allergic reaction caused by a hereditary kidney problem.

"Call 911," Ronald told Bruckheimer.

"Did duk didu..." The ambulance carried Demi Moore to the hospital, and Ronald followed and got into the car.

"I think she seems to be..." Don Simpson said to his partner Bruckheimer.

"That's not okay. If an actor does this on the set, we will have a big problem." Bruckheimer knew very well that it was one thing to work with the producer. If this happened to the main actor, the film would be invalid. No one can afford the cost of reshooting.

"I remember you promised me not to touch these things that are harmful to the body."

At the bedside, Ronald scolded Demi when she woke up.

"I..." Demi didn't expect Ronald to speak coldly, "Isn't this the case in Hollywood? Don Simpson, the producer of your movie, remember? Isn't he just like me?"

"So I will not let Simpson show up on the set and disrupt the rules of the set." Ronald added, "The same goes for anyone."

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu" Demi cried remorsefully, "I'm sorry, Ronald. I got addicted when I was filming a movie in Brazil. I want to change now. Can you give me a chance?"

"I can help you. If you really want to quit, I know an alcohol rehab center that can help you quit completely in three months." Ronald told Demi Moore the plan discussed with her agent.

Ronald admired Demi Moore's appearance, acting skills, and motivation, so he spent thousands of dollars to book her a three-month treatment in an alcohol rehab center. But this way, Demi won't be able to catch up with the filming of "Top Gun."

"Thank you!" Demi buried her head on Ronald's shoulder, "I envy your girlfriend very much. She has someone who cares about her like you..."

"Hey, I just don't want to see a talented actress like you ruined. The money you spent to go to the alcohol rehab center will be paid back to me when you make money." Ronald looked at Demi.

"Of course, how do you want me to pay it back?" Demi licked her lips again.

"You go to the alcohol rehab center first and make a complete recovery." Ronald saw that she was completely sober, turned to leave, and motioned to Demi's manager outside the door to come in.

As soon as he turned around, Ronald found that his hand was still tightly grasped by Demi.

"What's wrong?"

"I beg you one thing, Ronald. Don't tell Emilio Estevez about me."

"What about you?" Ronald looked at her lying in the hospital wearing a hospital gown.

"Emilio is an idiot. I can easily make him believe any story. This idiot who overestimates his abilities actually persuaded Allie Xiti not to star in your movie. But thanks to him, if it weren't for my body If something goes wrong, will this role belong to me?"

Demi Moore's eyes sparkled and she stared at Ronald closely.

"It also depends on your chemistry with Tom Cruise. You are not without competition. Tom wants to recommend his girlfriend."

Ronald gently put Demi's hand into the quilt, "But you do have a good chance. We need a mature-minded actress."

"Well..." Demi leaned back on the pillow, "I won't give up. I will definitely be your heroine next time."
