Exploiting Hollywood 1980

Ronald's equipment box, because it was too high and overweight, struggled for a long time on the baggage carousel at the airport, and the last few were sent out.

"Get up!" Ronald shouted, lifted the box containing the full set of baby lightning lights, placed it firmly on the ground at the Los Angeles Airport, and pushed it forward. Under the box, there was a special installation for him by the movie studio props. On small wheels, the box moved forward briskly.

The agent, Richard, and his driver, Bud Jr., saw Ronald and hurried up to help him with the suitcase, and the three of them walked towards the exit.

"What happened in Hollywood while I was away?" Ronald put on his sunglasses and asked Richard.

"Director Zach, who has a villain in his family, is still polishing the script. Their habit will not start until the script is finally mature enough to be shown in their minds first."

"Mr. Weintraub has already made a schedule. If you think you can start, you will start the casting and shooting preparations for the sequel to Longwei Kid."

"Michael Jackson and Director Coppola are calling you, you can call them back when you have time."

Richard picked on important matters and went through it with Ronald.

"Is the heat of my scandals almost over?" Ronald suddenly stopped and looked in front of him. It seemed that the exits were densely packed, and it seemed that a large number of reporters were waiting for him.

"We continue to receive interview invitations from the media every day, but they are not here to chase you today." Richard made a reassuring gesture.

"Oh? Which other star is in Los Angeles today?"

"I'm coming"

A few white lights suddenly turned on at the exit, illuminating the background and ground of the exit very brightly.

A large number of TV reporters, holding microphones in their hands, rushed towards the exit next door. Followed by another group of newspaper reporters, with portable tape recorders in their hands, or with notebooks and ballpoint pens in their hands, also running in the direction of the other exit.

The crowd that was still densely packed suddenly became empty, leaving only two drivers who came to pick up the guests, holding the names of the guests and staying where they were.

"Hello, I'm a reporter from the cable network. May I ask if Mr. Lockhudson's trip to the country has improved his physical condition? Can he speak to the media today?"

Ronald and his party, who were pushing the equipment out, were also attracted. They turned to look at the exit next door. The reporter from the cable network asked questions. The cameras and lights behind were all turned on, and it seemed like a big battle.

"Mr. Hudson is inconvenient for interviews, please give a patient some privacy."

Ronald took two quick steps to prevent reporters from recognizing him, and quickly got into Bud's car, accompanied by Richard, who put the equipment in the back seat behind him.

"Boom boom boom", a helicopter suddenly appeared over the exit of the airport, and a white light shot out from the spotlight on the nose, illuminating the ground brightly.

Following the light, Ronald opened the car window and stuck his head out. An emergency stretcher was pushed out of the emergency exit and into an ambulance that had already been parked.

"Is it Lockhudson? What's wrong with him?" Ronald asked Richard.

Rock Hudson was a star in the record-setting "Jumen's Grudge" TV series a few years ago, and previously starred in a movie with Elizabeth Taylor, which was nominated for an Oscar.

"He went to the hair country to see his strange disease, and I heard that he received an experimental therapy there, but today's situation" Richard shook his head and told Little Bud to drive.

"I brought a good thing from there. You can help me find out if there are any engineers who are engaged in movie lamps and lighting power supply. I want to improve it and start a small business." Ronald, who returned home, ordered the rationale Chad helped him recruit some people.

"Okay," Richard still wrote down one by one, "Last time you asked me to find someone who could read the script for you, and I found one. His name is David Simkins, who has been working for a TV station since 1982. script reader,

Recently, he wants to get married and change to a higher-paying job.

By the way, he was recommended by Mr. Roger Coleman. I let him read a few scripts and write synopses, and the level is still good. You are free to meet for an interview. "

"How did you get in touch with Coleman?"

"David was going to apply for a screenwriting assistant at Coleman's, but Coleman's salary was too low, and he was so eager to call me to see if you could find him a job."

"I'll call Coleman tomorrow. What's Coppola doing with me?"

"It's a long story. Eisner is going to take advantage of his high popularity to add an amusement facility to Disneyland and let him star in a ten-minute short film. Coppola is the director, but Coppola is busy. His new film, and Disneyland also has some special requirements, I would like to invite you over to chat, can you co-director develop this project?"

"A short film? Ten minutes? How could Coppola be interested in such a project?"

"Of course, Disney generously gave a super high budget. The production cost of more than 20 million can be added."

"What kind of short film is this?" Ronald stunned. With this production cost, he could make a regular two-hour feature film.

"You can ask him when the time comes. I heard that it is the latest technology."

"This station reports that the famous Hollywood actor Locke Hudson's medical journey ended today. He has been in the Pasteur Institute in the hair country for two weeks of experimental therapy. His spokesman, told reporters today, "Ha Desen misses family and friends in Los Angeles and decides to return to America"

The cable network report interrupted Ronald and Richard's discussion, and the two exchanged glances.

"The Institut Pasteur and two independent research groups at the University of Maryland in America both claim to be the first to isolate the virus that causes this strange disease, but both sides have made groundbreaking discoveries about who was first, and dispute.

In America, especially California, at least 12,000 people are expected to already have it, according to estimates by Dr. Fu, the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Special Advisor to the Grand Commander.

We still know very little about this kind of research, and the cable network will continue to follow the report for you. "

"Twelve thousand people? They're not all from Hollywood, are they?" Ronald looked at the footage of Hudson being carried into the ambulance on the screen. He was a little scared. Could it be some kind of spreading disease? "

"I heard that among the people who were recruited, most of them were men with a special orientation. Many people are going to the University of Maryland for a blood test. I heard that blood can also be used. Many celebrities are killing mosquitoes at home."

"Buzzing" a mosquito broke through the tight security of the apartment, and the layers of fortified screen doors and windows, just broke into Ronald's living room.

"s!" Ronald jumped up, picked up the magazine on the table, and started to fight mosquitoes.

"Crack", the mosquito was slapped to death on the cover of the magazine, Ronald grabbed the magazine with two fingers and quickly threw it into the trash.

"Little Bud, little Bud, go get some mosquito repellant"

David Simkins came to Ronald's house uneasy. He had just proposed to his girlfriend and just needed to change to a higher-paying job. While writing the script, he could have enough money to support his family.

He worked hard in the TV station, and with the recommendation letters from his superiors, he still found a lot of employers who were willing to hire him, but knowing that Ronald Lee came to recruit script evaluation assistants, he still came here first to try his luck. With such a big director as the boss, if he sees the script he wrote and buys it with money, then he won't have to worry about the house loan.

"Ding dong", he rang the doorbell.

"Quick, come in quickly, don't stand at the door, in case there are mosquitoes."

A tall young man, clutching a bandanna like a cowboy, opened the door and pulled him in.

"Chi Chi" A black man picked up the mosquito repellent and sprayed it at the door a few times.

"Are you David? I called Roger and talked to you. He said that you are very serious and responsible and that you can write the script yourself. I don't ask you to read the script quickly, just from the perspective of the script itself. , you think you are interested, then write a synopsis, and then attach your revision comments."

"Okay, Mr. Lee." David watched the young man take off a bandanna that was tied to his face to block his nose and mouth. It turned out to be his potential employer, Ronald Lee. "

"Here is a script. You can take it to the study over there to read, and then write the outline and revision opinions on the spot. If I am satisfied, the job is yours."

Ronald pointed to the study room and asked David to complete the written test.

"No problem." David took the pen and paper and went to the study with the script in his arms. He also smelled that Ronald seemed to be using a plant-scented fragrance, which smelled faintly of herbs.

He stared at the TV again. The commander-in-chief is speaking to reporters.

"I have entrusted the director of the Allergy Institute, Fu, my advisor, to take full responsibility for this matter"

The commander-in-chief has never expressed his opinion on this matter, but the tragedy of Lockhudson last night was spread all over the country through the cable TV network. The commander was forced to admit that there was such a thing in America. There are an estimated 12,000 people in the country.

"Finally I would like to say that whether our behavior is ethical or not determines the future of our nation and country. Although the latest research, there is no evidence that this is related to the unhealthy lifestyle we have been living in the past two decades. , but there is no 100% evidence that this has nothing to do with the unethical behavior of some men.

I hope Lockhudson is well, God bless him, God bless America. "

"It doesn't seem like people with special orientations can get it?" Richard said to Ronald and Bud Jr. in the room after reading the news.

"I think that's what the commander means. It must be like this. Didn't you see the outbreak in San Francisco at the beginning? And he's the commander. If he didn't have any news, he would definitely not say that."

"Well, what you said makes sense. Maybe we don't need to be overly nervous if we like girls." Ronald believed more in Bud's statement, which was more in line with common sense.

"But you still have to wear long sleeves. The mosquito coils from Chinatown are very good. You call Lawrence and ask them to send hundreds of more packs, and send some to your good friends. Richard, you asked the Austrian Whether Mr. Weitz wants it or not, there are many in Chinatown.

Mosquito repellent products are now in short supply. And then to Helen, Diane, and my aunt, Donna, they all sent a big bag, first this summer's amount. "
