Exploiting Hollywood 1980

Chapter 176: Breakdance Should Be Performed at the Opening Ceremony

Exploitation of Hollywood 1980 Text Volume 176 Opening Ceremony Should Be Breakdancing The next afternoon, Ronald and Brooke arrived at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum early to attend the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games.

This is the stadium built for the first Olympic Games in 1932. After renovation this year, it can accommodate 93,000 live spectators.

The packed stadium makes people feel very small inside. Ronald looked up at the broadcasting camera. Such a big scene also needs a director. This time, the Olympic Committee invited David Walper, the director of the famous TV series "Roots".

The stadium is very large, Brooke's seat is very close to the VIP seats in the front, and Ronald's ticket is just behind her and not far above.

Because the organizing committee had made advance arrangements and would give Brooke a camera, the two agreed to wait for Brooke to finish her mission and then sneak up to meet Ronald.

Ronald found a seat by himself, next to the aisle of the second-tier stands. The view here was very good, but there was a tall redneck in front of him, wearing a sun hat, a pair of tattered shorts, and a pair of very old shoes. He was dressed very sloppily, like a homeless person on the streets of Los Angeles.

Ronald wanted to change seats, but he made a noise, which was heard by the redneck in front of him, and he turned his head.

"Ronald, what a coincidence, you are also in this stand?"

"Steven, what's wrong with you? Why are you dressed like this?" Ronald found that the homeless man was Spielberg, whom he met at the airport yesterday.

"Hush, I want to watch the opening ceremony quietly and don't want to be recognized by reporters."

"Oh", Ronald turned to the next row and sat next to him, and the two pointed at the chairman's box opposite.

"Is that the president?"

"The one next to him seems to be the president of the International Olympic Committee, Juan Antonio Samaranch."

"Is that Prince Charles of Britain behind him?"

"It seems so. His wife didn't come?"

"I read in the newspaper that she's about to give birth to her second child."

"How many camera positions did you see?"

"Six? There might be a helicopter for aerial photography."

The two watched and discussed the program arrangement. They were both directors. This opening ceremony had arranged a large-scale cultural performance for the first time. Both of them were very interested.

"Oh!"

The two directors exclaimed. Two flying men dressed as astronauts flew in the sky. They were not suspended by wires. They relied entirely on the compressed air on their backs to descend and slowly landed in the stadium.

"Beep..." A whistle sounded, and the young people in white clothes in the stadium were clasped into several piles. The balloons in their hands formed the word "Welcome".

"How did you get these young people? It must be troublesome to rehearse." Ronald became interested.

"I heard that they found high school students from Los Angeles to volunteer. They rehearsed for more than two months."

The group gymnastics began to change again. They separated and closed, and became flowers.

A young lady wearing a white hat came from the aisle and gave flowers to all the audience.

"Mr. Spielberg?" The girl recognized the famous director.

"Shh," Spielberg gestured to her. The girl stopped pestering.

"The President of the United States of America, the First Lady, and Mr. Samaranch, President of the International Olympic Committee." The loud speaker began to introduce the guests on the rostrum.

As the American national anthem and the President's special background music "Salute to the Commander-in-Chief" were played by the live band, the circle.

Then they let go of the balloons in their hands, and hundreds of balloons flew out of the venue, telling everyone in Los Angeles that the opening ceremony had begun.

The live band played a compilation of historical famous songs from Hollywood and Broadway.

Ronald applauded. It seems that the mass gymnastics of America are also well done, not worse than the last Moscow.

The TV station broadcast the camera and began to scan the guest stars in the front row on the runway. The camera swept to Brooke Shields, and she made a cute scissors hand to the camera.

"This is a famous college student from our famous university, a model, a movie star, a top student from Princeton, Brooke Shields." The host in the studio began to joke.

As the opening ceremony performances progressed, the group exercises began to form the shape of the map of the United States, and caravans drove in.

Then the group exercises turned into a steamship and then a church.

This was telling the history of America. Many extras rushed in, and the group exercisers opened the colorful curtains to simulate the stained glass on the church windows.

A choir composed of several black people began to lead the singing.

Ronald understood that this was to make a gesture of racial unity.

Next was a modern song and dance performance, and the theme song "fa" of "Famous" was remembered again.

Ronald smiled, and the lead singer Irene Cara could continue to sing her famous songs on TV.

It is said that hundreds of millions of people watched the TV broadcast of the Olympic Games opening ceremony. It is a gift from God to be able to get a familiar face here.

"Beatit, beatit", the song changed, and it was the famous song in J's new album. The audience began to shout J's name enthusiastically. He was not able to appear at the opening ceremony to sing live, which made many people regretful.

"There is a puzzle board under each audience seat. Please raise the puzzle board to form the flags of the major participating countries."

Ronald reached under the seat and took out a large yellow puzzle board and held it above his head. "Please hold it for ten seconds."

Ronald looked around and found that the puzzle pieces of his stand were lifted up to form the national flag of New China. This was really an unexpected surprise. He had no idea in advance that the organizing committee had done this.

"Three...two...one..." Thank you everyone.

Ronald put down the puzzle.

"John Williams, please," the host called.

"John, is he a live band host?" Spielberg took out a bottle of water and handed it to Ronald.

John Williams, who composed the music for such masterpieces as Star Wars, E.T., and Superman, picked up the baton and began to direct the live band to play the Olympic theme song.

The mayor of Los Angeles took over the Olympic flag, and then the athletes entered the stadium.

"Steven, can you talk about your views on the level of directing live theatrical performances? Also, can I appear in your et.al. aliens sequel?"

The girl who presented the flowers told the broadcast team what she had discovered, and the broadcast team immediately sent a female reporter with a wireless microphone with a large antenna to interview Spielberg.

"The director of this opening ceremony has redefined the word legendary." Spielberg tugged on the antenna on the reporter's hat again, "Well, you look good as an alien."

"Hahaha, what do you think of the live cabaret performance and John Williams' conductor?"

"You have to ask my friend Ronald Lee for his opinion. He is the director of the hit movie 'Break Dance.'"

The reporter quickly pulled over the wireless microphone.

"Unparalleled," Ronald flattered him first. "The arrangement of the organizing committee is very good, showing all the major events since the founding of America. There are also songs by our superstar, J."

"Do you think J should come to the opening ceremony?" The reporter continued following the question.

"We are all looking forward to it. His songs are great, and it would be even better if we could see him perform his famous break dance moonwalk."

"Yeah!" Bo Ji perfunctoryly finished the scene. When the reporter finished the interview, she also climbed up to the stands to meet Ronald.

"Here we go, the athletes are entering," Spielberg said to the entrance of the stadium, loosening his visor.

"Greece is at the forefront!" The country represented by the sports team was announced in French and English.

One sports team after another walked in.

"Canada! They sent a huge delegation of more than three hundred people."

"Huh?" The Canadian delegation was still moving forward, and Ronald suddenly heard a burst of familiar music.

“Every revolutionary soldier must remember,

Three major disciplines and eight points of attention. "

Ronald couldn't help but sing.

"Yeah? Do you speak Chinese?" Spielberg recognized that Ronald was singing in Chinese.

"Learned a little bit," Ronald stared at the entrance.

The leader was a tall flag bearer who entered the stadium with a five-star red flag. The athletes behind him were wearing blue tops, white pants and skirts, and walked in neatly.

"yeah!"

When the Chinese sports team entered the stadium, the spectators who passed by stood up and applauded. This is a tribute to them for being able to withstand the pressure of the Sovereign League and compete for the sake of friendship and Olympic spirit.

Ronald also leaned forward and clapped to the rhythm of the revolutionary song.

"This is a mysterious country. If I have the chance, I will definitely go there to make a movie." Spielberg was also very excited.

"High jump, gymnastics, and women's volleyball. These are the events in which they have the potential to win medals." The host was announcing.

"Women's volleyball team, high jump, what else? Gymnastics?" Ronald wrote down secretly.

The entrance ceremony took a long time, and Brooke was already leaning on Ronald's shoulder, so sleepy that she couldn't open her eyes.

Finally waited for the opening session.

Olympic Committee President Juan Antonio Samaranch invited the current leader of the host country to announce the opening of the Olympic Games.

"God bless America." Samaranch finally used these words to pay tribute to the host country. The two previous Olympic Games caused huge losses. Fortunately, this time the Los Angeles Olympic Organizing Committee Chairman Ueber Ross is a capable person. Businessmen, by selling sponsorship and broadcast rights, are expected to make a profit at the Olympics, arguably saving the international Olympic movement.

"I declare the opening of the 23rd Modern Olympic Games in Los Angeles!"
