197. Shoot short films

Early the next morning, the two of them took the chef's carefully prepared coffee and sandwiches and took the chef's studio to the Hollywood studio. On the way, the two of them discussed what the game with Michael Jackson should look like, and they had a lot of fun.

They were together all night last night and are now a little depressed. Especially Subudon, the jet lag has not yet reversed, and they are playing games at Michael Jackson's house.

After entering the shed, Susanna had already been waiting there. She wanted to start putting on Mike's makeup herself, while Subudong's makeup work was handed over to his assistant Joey.

Other actors also came here one after another, starting to warm up and familiarize themselves with the movements before shooting.

The dance director, a black man wearing a big gold chain and bell-bottom trousers, walked up to Mike and demonstrated Mike the dance moves to shoot today during the gaps in his makeup.

"How is it?" asked the black man.

"It's not bad, but Ronald, I think the movements need to be adjusted a little." Mike said in the mirror as he looked at the choreographer.

"How do you want to change?"

"That's right, sitting next to me is Su, he's a very powerful kung fu master, so I want him to join my crew, you know, when the Iron Legion appeared, he came out of the team and defeated a few of the people in the Legion..."

"So do you want to be an exclusive dance?" Ronald walked to Subudong, "Wow, Kung Fu!" He exaggeratedly imitated Bruce Lee's screams at the air. "I like Bruce Lee very much, I hope you don't let me down."

"But I can't dance." Su Budong said weakly.

"Just put a few moves and let us dance with you." Ronald pointed at Subudon and said to Jackson, "Hey, I like this guy."

"Yes, he is also a great game designer." Jackson proudly introduced his new friend.

The two of them put on makeup and came to the studio where the scene had been set up with the accompanying dance.

At this time, Francis Coppola walked to Jackson with his headphones, frowned and said, "Why do you suddenly need to change the script? In this way, all the dispatching needs to be changed!"

Jackson pulled Subundong and said, "Because I discovered a genius, do you know? Yesterday he kicked a wooden dummy in front of me and Lucas! Come on, Coppola, don't be so unhappy. Our culture must be diverse. This kung fu scene appears in the MV. I tremble all over whenever I think about it. This idea is great, isn't it?"

"Kung Fu appears in the science fiction MV?" Coppola said that one is the first and two are big, and he doesn't like to disrupt his arrangements.

"Young man, no matter what ecstasy you gave Mike, if you can't meet my requirements, I will ask you to get out of the studio immediately!"

Subudon was surprised to find that the director of this MV was actually Francis Coppola! The great director who directed "The Godfather". He had never known how powerful Michael Jackson was as a king of the generation. Now it seems that he underestimated Michael Jackson's energy and invited two of the top ten contemporary Hollywood directors to shoot the film! Oh my God, this is unimaginable.

"Okay, I will work hard." Subudong gritted his teeth and saw Mike introducing him to everyone with joy, and truly regarded him as a friend. In order not to let down his friends' expectations, I am willing to do everything he should do.

For your friends and for yourself.

MV boots up.

The first scene is where Mike uses magic to turn the subordinates of the Iron Officer leader into a dancer.

Coppola personally pulled everyone to schedule. When he walked to Subudon, he frowned and asked, "Mike, how do you think you can kick people out? Do you use special effects?"

"Don't you have any Wia?" Subudon said strangely.

"What is Wia?" The flying and earth that is now popular in the Hong Kong film industry is still a technical barrier in Hollywood.

Foreigners don’t understand the fact that they fly over the eaves and walls in martial arts, so naturally they don’t have the things like hanging steel wires.

Subudon roughly explained, Coppola shook his head: "It's so troublesome, let's do special effects."

You are the director, you have the final say. Anyway, the idea is out, and you will decide whether it is OK.

"If you use a dummy, maybe he can do it, no special effects!" Michael Jackson pointed at Subudon and said.

"Dumb?" Coppola looked at the wooden model in the studio. "The lightest of these things are two hundred kilograms, can he kick it away with one kick?"

"You try it, won't you know?" Jackson was selfish and wanted to see Su Budong's amazing kung fu again.

Four staff members moved in a dummy.

Su Budong sighed, and he raised his dantian, found a good angle, kicked the dummy away with one kick in front of the dummy's chest!

"!!!" The entire studio was silent, and time seemed to have stopped. Everyone stared at Su Budong in a daze, motionless.

Everyone opened their mouths wide, looked at the dummy who was kicked more than 5 meters away, and looked at Su Budong again.

This is a fierce man.

Ronald, Susanna and Joey were even more surprised. They did not expect that the somewhat depressed guy had such strength.

An associate director suddenly reacted and shook Coppola wildly: "Another Bruce Lee, no, even a few points stronger than Bruce Lee! We are going to sign him, damn it. If other brokerage companies know about this, they will definitely sign him."

Coppola asked his photographer Peter Anderson, “Anderson, did you take the picture just now?”

Anderson hasn't woken up yet: "Yes, I took a picture, how did this guy do it?"

"It's amazing, isn't it? I kind of know why Mike must have him appear in the MV. Today we are here to witness the birth of a kung fu superstar! You know, it's more exciting than shooting a MV for Mike, because we are witnesses of the moment of this superstar's birth." Coppola said. He ignored the request from the assistant director to sign him and continued to shoot. There is nothing more important than shooting the camera here.

Those who were originally confused, because of Su Budong's foot.

Turn on the shooting.

When Coppola was photographed in which the dummy kicked off, he stared at the monitor, a little dissatisfied.

"This feels wrong. It seems that this kick hit the dead object, which makes people think it is fake at first glance..." Coppola and the deputy director said: "Can you find an actor to try it?"

All the actors looked at Su Budong in fear, kidding, this is an existence that can kick more than 100 kilograms of dummies away with one kick. Isn’t this kick a person?

No one wants to be a guinea pig.

The entire shooting went to a standstill.

Su Budong went outside the shed to find the slender steel wire for shooting, then found a piece of cowhide between the props of Industrial Light and Magic, drilled several holes with an electric drill, and carefully put them on the wire.

A simple Wia prop was formed under him.

Su Budong pointed to the photography ceiling and asked the deputy director at the scene: "Is this strong enough?"

"What's wrong?"

Su Budong climbed onto the top of the roof, passed the steel wire through the top beam, and then wrapped the two ends of the steel wire around a piece of wood.

"Ronard, come and try this." Subudon called Ronald and tied the simple Vea to Ronald.
Chapter completed!
