Exploiting Hollywood 1980

"boom!"

"Very good, you're hitting the ball well, pay attention to where you hit the ball. Ronald."

"boom!"

"That's it, good serve, your waist strength is better than some professional tennis players."

Ronald found an indoor tennis club in Manhattan, and Van Patten recommended a retired atp professional as a tennis coach.

"Huh...huh..." Ronald relied on his height and strength to fight back and forth with the coach a few times.

"Here, wipe the sweat."

The tennis coach was very satisfied with him, "Actually, your hitting power and awareness are good. If you received tennis training when you were young and developed your hand, you would have a good chance of participating in the college league. If you are lucky, you will not be able to play professionally. impossible."

"I just want to exercise." Ronald wiped his sweat and drank the "Arrow" mineral water handed by the coach.

In fact, Ronald didn't do it for exercise, but after listening to Van Patten's story of hitting the ball in the field and beating McEnroe, he wanted to try playing tennis to see if he could trigger a dream.

However, after playing a few times, there was no movement in the dream. Moreover, he is completely unfamiliar with the ball nature of tennis, and can only hit the ball vigorously, which is not as good as his level of table tennis. It's really uncomfortable to be beaten by people like this all the time as an exercise program.

"Finance advertisements, luxury car advertisements, luxury trips for two in Hawaii..." Ronald, who returned home, looked at the emails sent to him one by one. garbage can.

"Directors' Guild", a letter from the Directors' Guild was mixed in with many advertisements.

Ronald opened it and saw it was a check with $200 in "TV broadcast remaining dividends".

After carefully reading the attached letter, the remaining dividends are not "fast-paced", but the ending part of Diane Lane's film "The Magical Stain Band" that he helped make up, and it was used as a mv on stage. Play and generate the remaining dividends.

According to the collective bargaining agreement between the directors' union and the producers' association, if a film or segment is played more than 10 times, the remaining dividends will be distributed to directors and actors.

The revenue generated by the TV station through this mv will also be distributed to the director. Ronald did not sign in the film, but the MV was his handwriting and received the current dividend from the directors' union.

This MV was a hit on Taiwan for a while, but the follow-up movie was so badly released that it went offline after a weekend. Ronald estimates that this check is all the remaining dividends, and no TV station will be willing to show the film in the future.

"Oh, my God." Donna let out a scream from the back room.

"What's wrong?" Ronald asked.

"Someone in Europe has seen the trail of Halley's Comet. I have lost my first chance to see Halley's Comet in seventy-six years. The next time I see it coming back, I will be ninety years old." Donna held A new "Scientific American" magazine, speaking to Ronald.

"Don't be discouraged, there are many more comets to discover."

Ronald put on new clothes and went to the movies with Helen in the evening.

"Your girlfriend just called and said that she has an audition opportunity and will come later in the evening." Donna remembered Helen's call and said to Ronald.

...

The movie to watch is "Alien" director Ridley Scott's new work, "Blade Runner (; runner)". This sci-fi film is based on Philip K. Dick's sci-fi "Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?"

Helen thinks it is very good-looking. The movie has a philosophical thinking about who people know who they are. Harrison Ford and Sean Young's male and female protagonists are handsome and beautiful, coupled with the aesthetic style of the Asian cities of Hong Kong and Tokyo in the future world, Very exotic beauty.

Ronald, from the director's point of view, the story of this film is actually a very old-fashioned black detective drama.

A ruthless detective who encounters a strange case and wanders between law enforcement and criminals. If it was a movie starring Humphrey Bogart thirty years ago, it was just covered with a layer of science fiction.

But the actor who played the leader of the clones had an impressive line before his death.

"I have seen things that you humans can't believe, I have seen battleships burn on the edge of the Orion constellation, I have seen c-rays shine in the darkness near the Tannhauser Gate, all these moments, will eventually change with time Gone like tears in the rain."

This shot will be remembered by the audience, Ronald thought.

"By the way, what movie did you audition for, and you refused to tell me just now."

Ronald remembered Helen's uncontrollable smile when he was looking for him in the afternoon. Later, when he was watching the movie, he said that he would tell him later at night.

"I'll tell you when I go back." Helen pulled Ronald, and the two ran in the lower part of Manhattan, "Hahaha..." The long dark brown hair was blown by the wind, bringing a good smell, Ronald Smelling this smell makes me happy.

Arriving at the comic shop near the apartment, Helen stopped and walked in.

"I want all of this year's supergirls, wrap them up for me," Helen said to the clerk, pointing to the "Supergirl" cartoon in DC Comics.

"And that Supergirl uniform."

Super girl (super girl) is a derivative comic of super man (super man), the protagonist Kara Zor-el (kara zor-el), blonde and blue eyes, is Superman Clark Kent's cousin, also has the identity of an earth person, high school student Linda Lee.

Like Superman, when she becomes a normal person, her hair color will also turn dark brown.

"What, are you going to audition for Supergirl?"

Ronald, who returned to the apartment, watched Helen concentrate on reading the comics, and guessed a few points in his heart.

"No, my dad's agent introduced me to auditions for a supporting role in 'Supergirl'. Lucy Lane, Supergirl's best friend. You know, he's Superman's girlfriend Lois Lane's My sister. She's Linda Lee's high school classmate in her usual identity as Supergirl."

"Then why did you buy Supergirl's uniform? You still want to play the heroine." Ronald pointed to Helen's bought uniform and asked her with a smile.

"Actors all want to be the protagonists, but it's a pity that the producers didn't like me. They plan to select actors for Supergirl all over the country, just like Christopher Reeve was selected to play Superman. I heard that they want Brooke Shields."

Ronald felt that there was some truth in his heart. Brooke Shields was six feet tall, and she was a natural blond beauty, and the topic was enough. If the budget is right, she's definitely a superwoman.

"I think you're pretty, too. Except for your hair color, you're the same as Supergirl."

Of course, Ronald still has to praise his girlfriend. Helen has a very good figure. At 5 feet 8 inches (172 cm), he is tall on the screen, and there is no problem with her appearance if she really wants to play a superwoman. Maybe it was her popularity, and the agent recommended the role of Supergirl's best friend.

"Actually, Lucy Lane's role is not bad." Helen took out a script from the bag and handed it to Ronald.

The script of the audition is generally not the whole script, only the part of the role, and some directors will deliberately give only part of it, or use the wrong script to prevent leakage.

This audition script is the story line of Lucy Lane, and there are many scenes in which she helps the incarnation of Supergirl, Linda Lee, to integrate into the high school life of the earth in high school.

"Is there still a scene of Superman Christopher Reeve here?" Ronald saw on the second page, there was a scene where Lucy Lane met his sister Superman's girlfriend, reporter Louise. She came to interview Superman after he disappeared and appeared recently. female version of Superman.

In the end, the two sisters discovered the relationship between Superman and Supergirl.

"Yes, Superman 3 and Supergirl, I heard that they will be filmed together, and then they will be released next year and the year after." Helen said some inside information.

"Originally, Supergirl actually appeared in Superman 3, but I heard that Warner Bros. was not satisfied with the plot design of the producer Serkind and his son, and rewrote the script of Superman 3."

The Serkinds are legendary figures in the Mexican film and television industry. They bought the rights to Superman's live-action film adaptation for $3 million from Warner Bros., the parent company of DC Comics.

Unexpectedly, the comic book adaptation film that can only be made into a Roger Coleman-style low-cost exploitation film, the Serkind and his son actually raised 50 million yuan to invest in the filming of the "Superman" movie.

In 1978, this film achieved an unprecedented national box office of more than 100 million, and the total box office in the world was as high as more than 300 million.

A slogan of "Superman Flies" sent children, teens, and comic fans all over the world flocking to the cinema to see the live actors taking off on the screen.

"Ronald, can you help me practice the dialogue?" Helen asked Ronald to rehearse Lucy Lane's dialogue with him in the audition script.

"Okay, but..." Ronald saw the Supergirl uniform that Helen bought. "Wait a minute, let me see when you put on this uniform."

...

After practice, Helen went to take a shower, then put on a supergirl uniform and walked out of the bathroom. She turned to Ronald, in Superman's signature flying pose, and asked.

"do I look good?"

Helen is wearing a blue uniform with a big red "s" on her chest like Superman. Unlike Superman, the lower body is not tight pants, but a short skirt.

"You look wonderful, Helen."

Helen Slater put down her hand with satisfaction, "There is one more accessory."

Saying that, Helen picked up a red headband that came with the uniform, lifted her hair, and asked Ronald to tie it to her forehead.

"This headband is a little out of your style," Ronald commented after looking around for a while.

"I think so too." Helen put down her headband and put her arms around Ronald's neck.

The thin blue Supergirl uniform, which didn't fit very well, hung loosely over Helen's body.

Ronald hugged Helen into his arms, her body holding up where the uniform should be, even a little tight. However, the waist is a bit too fat, and an extra section comes out.

Ronald tightened his uniform behind Helen to reveal her figure, looked at her with blue eyes closed slightly, a healthy blush on his face, and he kissed it hard.

"Well, um..." Helen spit out some syllables, then jumped up and hung it on Ronald's body so that her head was as high as Ronald's, so she could kiss each other better.

Helen, who was only 100 pounds, was very light, and Ronald hugged her easily, and began to stroke Helen's smooth calf with both hands.

"Oh, Ronnie, kiss me." Helen had just stopped a long kiss before Ronald's cheeks heated up again.

"As ordered."

Ronald started kissing Helen's neck and shoulder blades and carried her to the bedroom.

...

After a long time, Ronald got up contentedly, went to the kitchen to pick up two glasses of water, and handed one to Helen.

"Thank you," Helen had already changed into a T-shirt and boy's shorts at light speed, lay down on the bed to take the water, and drank half a glass in one go.

Taking the water glass and placing it on the cabinet, Ronald lay on Helen's side and put his arms around Helen. The two looked into each other's eyes on the bed and felt very quiet and comfortable for a while.

"Ronnie," Helen leaned against Ronald's warm arm, squinted her eyes comfortably, and rubbed her toes on Ronald's calf, feeling the temperature of her lover.

"Helen."

Ronald also began to feel sleepy, and his eyelids fluttered open, as if he was reluctant to close it, so he couldn't see this beautiful girl.

"Ronnie..."

"Helen..."

Finally, the two young people couldn't resist the Sandman, hugging each other and falling asleep.

"call……"

A burst of intense music sounded, and Ronald opened his eyes forcefully, as if a burst of glowing subtitles flashed across the TV screen.

The beginning is very much like a Superman movie, very sci-fi. Some subtitles come and go, and it is not very clear who is starring.

"No, this subtitle is a bit of a red streamer, while Superman's subtitle is a blue streamer. Is it the third part of Superman?"

After a while of fast-forwarding, Ronald saw a thin old actor, in a very sci-fi scene, talking to a girl in a silk dress.

Hey, this seems to be a British actor, Peter O'Toole who played "Lawrence of Arabia". The one next to him who plays the mother figure seems to be Mia Farrow (mia farrow), and Robert O'Toole Redford played "The Great Gatsby".

Is this a remake? Ronald knew the 1978 version of Superman, and it was Marlon Brando who played Superman's father.

The girl in the silk robe turned her back to him, a blonde girl who looked a bit like Helen Slater, but much stronger than Helen.

The camera continues to move forward, and a girl in a superman-like uniform is flying in the sky. On the prairie below, countless horses are galloping.

"It's a Supergirl movie." Ronald could clearly see that the girl's hair was shiny golden and she was wearing a short skirt. The whole person was very dazzling under the sunlight.

As soon as the camera changes, it changes to the usual identity of Supergirl, Linda Lee, a girl wearing a green top, white shirt, and gray skirt in a New England private high school-style school uniform.

The audience, who was facing away from her, was talking to her classmates in the dormitory.

"Lucy, take the new Linda around the dormitory and get acquainted with the environment." The principal who brought Linda Li to the dormitory said to Lucy Lane.

"Hey, I know." Ronald was surprised to find that he knew the actor who played Supergirl's best friend Lucy. It was Maureen teefy who played Doris, a Jewish student in "Famous Around the World".

Looks like Helen's audition failed, Ronald thought. Give her another chance later.

The camera continues to cut, the female students start playing hockey in gym class, and a witch-like person is peeping outside the campus, "It's her, Supergirl."

"This is the actress Faye Dunaway, who once played 'The Male and Female Thief' and 'Chinatown', the female star who won the Oscar for "Work" in 1977.

Supergirl's best friend Lucy Lane's team won, and an ugly schoolgirl revenge by deliberately hitting her hard with a hockey ball.

Seeing the ball hit Lucy Lane in the face. A player wearing a No. 2 rushed over, blocked Lucy, and used his back to pick up the hockey ball.

"Bang!" The ball smashed against her.

"This is the normal identity of Supergirl, Linda Lee." Ronald confirmed his judgment as he watched the hockey ball being blocked by his back and exploded in slow motion. Supergirl and Superman are both men of steel. Ordinary objects can't hurt them.

To see who played it, there will definitely be a close-up of the face here. Ronald thought.

The girl turns her head and the camera clips a close-up of her face. A beautiful girl with a round face came into view.

"Helen!"

Ronald shouted, this is Helen Slater? Why does it seem to have gotten stronger? Have you dyed your hair blonde before?

"Ronnie, Ronnie, have you had a nightmare?" Helen heard Ronald yell, shaking him desperately.

"Ah, it seems, it's okay, it's okay." Ronald hugged Helen tightly again, "I really want to dream of falling under the bed."

Fortunately, someone hugged him this time, so he didn't fall under the bed. Ronald secretly called fluke in his heart.

"Hee hee, go to sleep." Helen lay back into his arms.

"This dream movie has a lot of stunt shots, and obviously it cost a lot of money. The actors who played with Helen are all movie stars and veteran actors at the level of actresses."

Ronald glanced at Helen in his arms, "She's obviously playing Supergirl, why did she say she was going to audition for the role of Lucy?"

"There are so many movie stars and actresses supporting new protagonists. This is obviously the traditional way of Superman movies. Maybe this girl will become famous like Christopher Reeve."
