Exploiting Hollywood 1980.

Chapter 570 The Call of the First Lady

"What does the first lady want from me?" Ronald was sleepy and confused.

"James Baker didn't say it, but he is the chief of staff of the White House, the fifth most powerful person in that house, not the fourth, you decide whether you want to go or not." Nisita said on the other end of the phone.

"Okay, I'll ask Bud to take me to the airport, and you'll help me buy the ticket, right?"

"No, someone is responsible for all the expenses, you just need to come to the airport, and a few of your old acquaintances received the invitation together."

"It's you guys? What's the matter with going to the White House this time? Teach the commander-in-chief to break dance?" Ronald met the three leading actors of "Break Dance" in the special waiting hall of the airport, Boogaloo Prawns, Sabado, and Lucinda Dickie.And Minahan Golan who came with him.

"Don't you know? We have just been notified."

"Ladies and gentlemen, please follow me." A White House Secret Service commissioner in a black suit and sunglasses came to invite them to board the business jet.

"Man, is this Air Force One?"

Boogaloo prawns have never seen it before and asked stupid questions.This is a small business jet, not a big guy like Air Force One.

"No, this is a private jet that a friendly entrepreneur lent us. This flight is not an official business." The Secret Service replied politely.

Ronald got on the plane and felt a sense of familiarity.Sure enough, Weintraub and his wife Jane Morgan, the producers of "Kids of Dragon" were transferred.

"Take a break. We have arrived in Washington, and there are still many things to do." Weintraub signaled Ronald and his agent Nisita to sit in the front and rest first.

Ronald put on a blindfold and earplugs and tried to fall asleep again.It's not easy to dream of a movie once, why not keep trying.

"Have you seen the finished film of the sequel?"

"No, I don't want to mention that movie."

"Come on, at least the dancing is pretty exciting."

"You mean those nurses who dance?"

"Hahaha……"

Ronald slept refreshed, but never dreamed again.He intermittently heard the three main creators of "Breakdancing" in the back row discussing something, so he took off his blindfold and earplugs and turned his head away.

"Hey, Ronald, why didn't you continue to direct the sequel to Breakdance?" Sabado asked with a dejected look on his face when he saw Ronald wake up.

"I think all the stories I want to shoot have been filmed in the first film." Ronald replied.

"Hey, the sequel was filmed as a monster. I cried when I saw the movie finished." The expression on Sabah's face didn't seem like he was lying.

"It's very bad. The director also made a rotating cylinder and asked me to perform shots dancing on the walls and ceilings in it, saying it was a tribute to Fred Asdale." Boogaloo Prawn also Start complaining.

“Why don’t you talk about that scene where you’re in the hospital, and all of a sudden all the nurse girls take off their coats, wear sexy skirts, and start break dancing.” Lucinda Dickey, who also stars in the sequel, laughs.

"I really cried, Ronald. What a great work your first film is. It reflects Los Angeles and the hip-hop scene very realistically. He did what the Secretary-General of the United Nations could not do. Let different races , people of different colors unite and dance together...

This second one, it's just... they actually made us break dance and fight gang members. "

"Yes, Minahan asked the director to add it. Street gang fights, break dancing and karate moves. He said he wanted to learn from your Longwei boy."

"Shhh, take it easy," Lucinda Dickie pulled the Boogaloo prawn and pointed at Minahan who dozed off at the end of the plane.

"Chirp... Phew..." Fatty Minahan was sleeping soundly.

"It seems that his old habit has been committed again, and he always wants to stuff all the elements into the movie..."

Arriving at Dulles International Airport in Washington, D.C., several cars took everyone to the White House.

"Sorry, you can't go in." At the door of the living area, the Secret Service personnel interrogated Minahan Golan and refused to let him in.

"why?"

"You are not a citizen of America."

"Me? Ronald, what's the matter? Let's talk when we come out." Minahan blushed, as if he had been greatly insulted, and walked silently to the tourist area outside the door in the eyes of everyone.

"Hi there!" Nancy, the first lady who was dressed in a very Hollywood style and had a good temperament, walked from the inside to the reception room where Ronald and others were in, wearing a white suit.

"Mrs. Nancy, you are really radiant today." Ronald stepped forward to greet her.

"Ha, I've been away from Hollywood for a long time, and Ronald and I feel a little bit revisited when you come here." Nancy shook hands with several creators of "Breakdancing" one by one, especially Lucinda Dicky, the two held hands and talked for a while.

"I invite you here this time, I want to invite you to come and teach me how to dance break dance."

"what……!?"

Ronald cried out in surprise.Really let them teach Nancy how to dance?Isn't it enough to just find a break dancer as a teacher and learn from it?

"Don't be surprised, I also made musicals back then." Nancy smiled gracefully.

"Recently, I am helping to promote a youth action to eliminate the trend of drug abuse and advocate a healthy lifestyle for young people. I need to make a promotional video, so I want to borrow your strength and the unparalleled popularity of break dancing among young people to come Promote this good thing that benefits the country and the people."

"You're the most Hollywood First Lady and it's as easy as having a cup of coffee and Lucinda will work out some dance moves with you.

When the time comes, Boogaloo Prawn and Sabado can choreograph the dance with you.I will fulfill the duties of a director and find the most photogenic angle for you.

I hope that the way of directing I have learned can keep up with your classic Hollywood performances. "

Ronald, who was dissatisfied with Nancy for calling the crew members here with great fanfare just to shoot some promotional videos for her, saw that Nancy had made up his mind to do this, so he simply stepped forward to cater to her.

The wife of the commander-in-chief, since you have been recruited, it is neither wise nor proficient to let her achieve the desired effect satisfactorily without showing some real level.It's better to use the ability of Hollywood's new generation of directors to make this former Hollywood movie star happy.

"One two three four... two two three four..."

With the accompaniment of the "breakdancing" music found by the Secret Service, Nancy followed Lucinda to learn breakdancing moves.

Nancy, like Lucinda, has the basis of jazz dance, so it is most suitable for Lucinda to teach her.

How to make the arms rise and fall like snakes, how to twist the hips forward, how to make a strong sense of rhythm, Lucinda taught it very effectively.

"Hurry up and go..." Ronald patted two foolish male actors and asked them to go up and dance with the first lady. "Don't make it too complicated. Everyone does the same movement and line up for a group dance."

Shabadu and Bugaloo Daxia woke up like a dream, and started to lead the dance in front of Nancy.

One two three four, two two three four...

Several people lined up and danced a few moves that Nancy had already mastered.

Ronald was on the side, personally manipulating the installed video recorder, and filmed the footage of the first lady dancing with the actors.

"It really doesn't look difficult." Nancy smiled happily.

"The main reason is that your jazz dance foundation is very good. If I knew Madam during the filming, I would definitely try my best to persuade you to come as a guest judge for the final dance."

Ronald's good words are exaggerated like no money.

"Oh hahaha...Don't tell me, I was a heroine before." Nancy put one hand forward and flattened her body, doing a dance move.

"Can you?" Ronald gently took her hand, silently recalling the rhythm of the waltz in his heart, and danced the two-step waltz with her.

"Haha, you made me so happy today. I want to go back to our Hollywood days with Ronald, when we were friends with Frank Sinatra and Dean Martin.

The same goes for banquets and dances every day.It's not like here in Washington, where everyone is so stuffy. "

"Oops" The First Lady puts a gaffe on her mouth and laughs like a big star.

Ronald and several actors also laughed in agreement.

Nancy pulled Lucinda again and asked her to teach a few more moves.She will go to a public high school in Washington tomorrow, and she will have fun with the children and practice break dancing beforehand. For her, it is an important part of her image of being friendly to the people.

Ronald returned the video camera with the angle and lens adjusted to the secret service team members.Quietly exited the room.

It is a lie to say that they are not unhappy when they go to great lengths to find them.

"Ronald, why did you come out? Did things go well?" Weintraub suddenly appeared in front of Ronald just as he disappeared.

"It's going well, Nancy is learning some breakdancing moves from Lucinda, I see her skills, and now I can make a movie with Gene Kelly.

"Hehehe, old Ronald's first televised presidential election debate polls were not good, and she was eager to make a little action to restore her support." Weintraub quietly said the truth of the matter.

"No way, the commander-in-chief's economy is doing so well, inflation is gone, the unemployment rate is at its lowest point, GDP growth has exceeded 5%, and the successful hosting of the Olympic Games, a tough stance on the alliance... I listen to TV The news said that there is no suspense about his re-election?" Ronald also whispered his doubts in Weintraub's ear.

"However, in the last TV debate, he performed very poorly and often forgot things. The candidate of the Donkey Party, Mundell, took the opportunity to say that he has a poor memory when he is old, and said a lot of things he said back then, but now he forgets."

"Oh..." Ronald understood that no matter how many achievements he made, if the commander-in-chief became old and feeble, the people of America would probably not vote for him. Who would want an old fool to be the commander-in-chief?
"Ronald... Ronald..." Nancy's voice came from the door.

Ronald immediately opened the door and went in.Several actors went to the side hall next to them and did not dance with Nancy again.

Only Nancy was talking to a middle-aged man in the room, "What did Ronald say?"

"Madam, you continue to prepare your campaign. The campaign will be handled by me and his campaign manager."

"How could I not be concerned? They attacked my husband saying he was too old to be healthy enough to continue leading the people of America. I have a right to ask you about your coping strategies."

"Oh, Ronald... Ronald, how do you say we should deal with this kind of thing?" Nancy was very different from her elegant appearance just now, and her eyes showed anxiety.

Ronald thought that Nancy was asking for his own opinion, and stepped forward and said, "Age is not necessarily a disadvantage, right? Shouldn't people trust those experienced leaders more?"

"Oh, little Ronald, I'm not telling you, please wait for me in the side hall." Nancy turned her head and saw Ronald, regained her demeanor in an instant, and explained to her that she was It was her husband's name.

"Wait a minute, what did you just say?" The middle-aged man turned his head to stare at Ronald, stepped forward to grab his arm with both hands, and then asked, "How did you answer just now?"

"I said age is not necessarily a disadvantage."

"No, the last sentence."

"I say people should trust the more experienced leaders." Ronald didn't know what was going on.

"What the fuck is your name? Are you an intern here?"

"I'm Ronald, a film director."

"James Baker, White House chief of staff, please come in and have a chat with our campaign team."
