Exploiting Hollywood 1980

Chapter 54: One-on-one fight at the packing party

"Are you really not going to pack the party?" Antonia asked while combing her hair in the mirror, looking at Ronald in the mirror, "choreographer Luis Falco, producer David, and composer Michael Gore, Gene, Lucy, they all asked me are you going?"

"I'm afraid that if I see the director again, I won't be able to help but beat him up." Ronald drank half a glass of milk in one breath to replenish the water, protein, and minerals lost after exercising in the morning.

"You'd better go. So many friends want to see you, why should you give up so many people who love you for someone you hate?" Antonia let go of her hair and combed it into a shawl style, tied around her left and right ears. Two playful little braids.

Ronald thought for a while, and it was indeed true. There was no need to ruin friendships with other friends for the sake of someone who didn't like him. The filming of "Famous" comes to an end today. Alan Parker has left the authority that his position brings him and is actually a very annoying egomaniac. This kind of person will not have any real friends at parties.

So he nodded, "You're right, I'll go to the party with you."

"How about my hairstyle?" Antonia didn't have a role to play today, so she resumed her ballet girl style and dressed her hair up like an elf.

Ronald hugged Antonia's shoulders from behind, "Beautiful, my elf princess."

"Hahaha, you never watch ballet, do you? The elf in the dance drama The Tempest is not the princess, but helps the princess." Antonia smiled happily. "Hmm... um" She was kissed by Ronald from behind.

"Hate it, hurry up and get it...do you want me to have my stomach stuffed like...like Hillary?" Antonia pushed him away angrily.

Ronald, who was in a hurry, rushed to get the items. He tore open the entire unopened box and scattered it all over the floor.

"I sing the electric current in my body,

I celebrate myself tomorrow,

I toasted my reunion with him,

When I become a superstar,

Then I will look back at Mars,

Then I will look back at Venus,

Thousands of stars burn,

We will be one of them”

Lucy stood in the front row of the choir and sang the chorus from the film's art school graduation performance. This is the treatment that Ronald fought for her. Now she is very serious and wants to perform well in scenes where she shows her face.

This song "I Sing the Electricity in My Body" is a famous poem by the great American poet Whitman. The famous poet borrowed the name of this poem to sing about the dream of an art school student.

"Cut!" the director ordered, and the entire filming of the famous film was packed up, and everyone cheered.

The protagonists such as Erin Kara and Gene Ray are the happiest group of people. They can look forward to the future. The movie is scheduled to premiere in May next year, and they may all become big stars by then. Producer David da Silva promised that as long as the movie's box office is good, he will start filming a TV series of the same name.

For second-tier young actors like Meg Tilly and Lucy, becoming famous is also of great significance. They were able to obtain Screen Actors Guild cards, and the door to the film and television industry has been opened to them. Now is the time to show off their talents. .

The crew set up alcoholic drinks at Harlan High School and everyone started to party.

For most of them, today means that the production of "Famous" has ended a period in their lives.

There are only a few departments such as director, editor, and sound effects, and they will spend several months in post-production until the entire film is edited.

Ronald was also among the celebrating crowd and drank a lot of alcoholic drinks. He took out his beloved Nikon camera and took pictures with the dancers. The dance group likes Ronald the most, not only because he helped them in the driver's accident, but also invented beautiful leg warmers.

Erin Kara, the biggest star of the cast, also specially wore leg warmers to take a photo with Ronald. In the end, more than 60 group dancers put on leg warmers and took a group photo with Ronald in the middle.

Women in the middle, men on either side. Ronald was the only man in the middle. He held Antonia with his left hand and rested his right hand on Irene Kara's shoulder. He laughed happily. The photographer helped him take this group photo.

On the other side of the party, director Alan Parker, director of photography Seresin, and a group of staff from Britain and Europe gathered together. Drinking whiskey and telling British jokes.

"I was with Peter O'Toole, very drunk, and Michael Caine came up and he said is it Saturday? We all said it was Sunday, and Michael said, what did I do on Saturday? Hahahahaha... ..." Alan Parker talked about drunken jokes again, which is a favorite topic of British people at gatherings.

"Alan, I heard that you used to be a boxer?" an assistant joked, "Have you ever boxed professionally?"

"Hahaha, of course, I have boxed professionally in the East End of London. Even though I am 36 years old now, none of those kids can beat me." Alan Parker said and pointed in the direction of the dance troupe. Pointed.

"How can those dancers beat you, but I don't think that's the case with Ronald. He's quite strong." The member of the camera crew who made the report didn't like the director and started to stir up trouble.

"Haha, I don't think he's that good. He didn't dare challenge Allen that day." Another British assistant was unconvinced.

"Don't mention it, all boxers in America are black now. Ronald, a white man, can't beat our British boxers. If all black people were eliminated from boxing, we British people would still be the world boxing champions." The other one is older. ’s assistant also has some racial discrimination complex.

"That's hard to say. No one will know until you hit him once." The American assistant at the beginning was stirring up trouble again.

Everyone started to boo, and the cameraman saw that Seresin looked at the director and did not stop him. He stood up and walked towards the producer David da Silva to organize a live boxing match.

Alan Parker sullenly took a sip of whiskey. He had long wanted to teach Ronald a lesson. But if he takes the opportunity to beat him up, it will be true. Last time, he used the ambiguous rumors between him and Gene Ray to provoke Ronald to attack him first, so that he could fight back and beat him down.

Unexpectedly, Antonia, a bitch, would come out and cause trouble midway. Today, the American assistant came out to stir up trouble, which was exactly what he wanted. Let them know that they are not only artists, but also fighters.

Alan Parker had a lot of anger and couldn't let it out during filming. Young people in America are too free-spirited and disobey orders. If the film had been shot on the British Isles, it wouldn't have taken so long and wouldn't have encountered so many obstacles. Everything would have been completed as envisioned.

It's a pity that this country with little cultural achievements is the place with the most money in the global film and television industry.

"Director Allen wants to have a boxing match with me?" Ronald heard what Da Silva and director of photography Seresin told him, and he didn't believe it for a moment. Is there anyone who likes to take the initiative to get beaten?

"Yes, Allen is a professional boxer from the East End of London. If he hadn't loved film art more, he would have been the champion of the professional world." Seresin and Allen have worked together for five or six years, and they have heard a lot. Alan Parker's boast.

"But I don't know how to box, and where are we going to find boxing gloves?"

"This is not a problem. We can have a hand-to-hand fighting match. As long as you don't insert eyes or attack the crotch, back of the head, throat, etc., there will be no problem."

"How about it, can you do it? Ronald? If you can't do it, let me protect America's dignity." Producer Da Silva also drank a lot.

Ronald nodded and agreed to the duel, and the two parties came to the open space in the middle of the party. The extras and staff gathered in a circle and started shouting with the help of alcohol.

"Both parties are not allowed to attack each other's eyes, crotch, back of the head, or throat. Follow my instructions." Photography director Seresin played a guest role as a referee under the influence of alcohol.

"start!"

Alan Parker warmed up with some straight punches and began to close in on Ronald.

A straight left punch came straight towards Ronald.

Ronald dodged with a tilt of his head.

Alan Parker had already calculated that he would use a British swing punch with his right hand to knock down Ronald with one punch.

Ronald was used to this amateur boxing technique from his daily fights with the football team in high school. He put his hands together, caught the opponent's punch, stepped up and turned behind the opponent, and pinned Allen Parker's fist behind his back.

"Oh, you committed a foul." Allen jumped in pain and opened his mouth to curse.

Most of the onlookers were young Americans, but regardless of the boxing rules, Ronald restrained the annoying studio tyrant with one move and started cheering loudly.

Allen Parker may have actually practiced boxing a few times. Even though his right hand was restrained, he kept using his left fist to reach Ronald. He also started trying to kick him with his feet.

Ronald was kicked on the calf bone, which hurt a little. As a result of long-term training, a hook knocked down Alan Parker, causing him to fall to the ground.

Ronald simply sat on Alan Parker's back, controlling his right fist with one hand.

The poor British director was unable to move because he was sitting down. After his back was controlled, he couldn't use his legs or hands. At first, he tried to call the referee for a foul, but unfortunately the scene was overshadowed by the cheers of the actors. After trying several times and failing to turn over, I had no choice but to slap the ground and surrender.

Ronald stood up, let go of Alan Parker, and then pulled him up pretending to be friendly, holding his hand and greeting everyone. As if this was just a show.

Allen Parker looked embarrassed, but he still cooperated with Ronald's greeting.

Ronald let go of his hand and walked in Antonia's direction.

"My dear, you are so brave." Antonia rewarded him with a kiss.

Irene Kara next to her was also looking at him with two starry eyes. Little girls still prefer men who are brave and brave.
