American Fame and Fortune Chapter 856

Chapter 856 This kneeling is earth-shattering

 The live camera of the TV station was focused on the two people on the rostrum. The election has entered the current stage. National heroes Alexandrovich and Alexey are already the only candidates for the leadership of the University of Ukraine.

 The huge conference center was packed with seats, and supporters on both sides gradually fell into a frenzy as the debates took place on the rostrum.

 Compared to Alexey, who has been in politics for many years, Alexandrovich is a complete newcomer to politics.

 But he is a hero of this country and has unparalleled appeal among the people.

Of course, with these words alone, Alexandrovich would have been eliminated long ago.

 He also has the support of huge forces behind him.

 The debate was extremely heated, and the topic came to Wudong and its neighbor Damao, which are particularly critical to Ukraine.

The relationship between the two countries is particularly sensitive. Under the guidance of the media's public opinion for decades, most Uzbek people are inclined to the West in their hearts, and they are increasingly disgusted with their eastern neighbors who were once compatriots.

 Relationships with the East have an extremely important impact on public opinion in the general election.

As a newbie in politics, Alexandrovich gradually fell behind in the debate.

 Alexandrovich looked at the huge sign erected on the roof of the TV station building, and felt more and more that Martin was more important than Igor. If he wanted to secure this position in the future, North America would be the key.

 Hence, Alexandrovich felt that Martin's words could be applied to him.

In this debate, Alexandrovich won an unexpected victory, and his support rate soared.

 Alexei completely took advantage and decided to give his opponent a fatal blow.

 In front of the television, countless Ukrainian people were moved by Alexandrovich.

Alexandrovitch did not follow Alexei's routine, and did not even answer Alexei's question.

 Martin's careful teaching in recent years plays a key role at this moment.

 The car drove past the 1+1 TV station.

 Alexandrovich thought of what Martin had said a few days ago and knew that he must not follow Alexei's routine.

On the way back from the debate, Alexandrovich called the company: "Contact the North American side to confirm the performance date of the Saints in Los Angeles as soon as possible, and let Nastya, Erica and Misha prepare some Surprise, they understand.”

There is no doubt that Igor's Provas Group will be an excellent gift.

This issue is very critical. In this country, except for parts of Wudong, the west wind basically overwhelms the east wind in other places.

 Alexei's supporters in the audience roared, shouted wildly, and attacked Alexandrovich.

 The crew of "Shark Beach" has officially started filming in the Bay Area.

Martin was wearing a headset and sitting on a nearby boat, looking at the director's monitor in front of him.

The scene was silent at first, and then erupted into an overwhelming applause. Not only Alexandrovich's supporters, but also many people who originally supported Alexey, were applauding Alexandrovich vigorously.

"The east side is getting tougher and tougher, and the threat to us is getting bigger and bigger. They always want to split Wudong's territory!" Alexey stared at Alexandrovich and asked: "And what about you? What is your relationship with the east side? Ambiguous, I have cooperated with people from the east many times in the past!”

This kneeling is earth-shattering!

Compared to this experienced old fox, he is at a lower level. If he follows the opponent's routine, he will inevitably encounter blows one after another.

 Alexandrovich knew very well that since Alexey dared to question him like this, there must be other preparations later.

Many people have an idea: "The previous commander-in-chief was a businessman and politician who told lies. Maybe this national hero can really make Ukraine different."

 Alexandrovitch is a national hero of Ukraine, and Martin is a national hero of the United States.

He raised his voice, looked at the thousands of people in the audience, looked at the camera lens, and said loudly: "Compatriots, if Alexandrovich comes to power, he will lead Ukraine to destruction! I am afraid that he, a weakling, will Vladimir of the East kneels down!”

Alexandrovich said loudly: "I will not kneel to Vladimir, I will only kneel in the name of the Ukrainian people!"

 Martin said on the phone that when facing the public, you must do a good job to make them feel sincere!

 That's right, it's sincerity, the sincerity that comes from national heroes.

 Alexandrovitch fell to his knees on the rostrum!

Although kneeling is not that serious in the West, everyone in the audience and on the stage was in a daze for a while, not knowing what this person was going to do.

 Baja California, Rosarito Island.

 All the storylines of the film take place in the big scene of the bay beach.

 Martin only needs to tell them what kind of shots he wants and how to achieve it, it is the film crew's business.

 As his directorial debut, Martin chose "Shark Beach", which was also opportunistic.

The live TV camera also turned to Alexandrovich, giving him a close-up of his face.

 Otherwise, you will definitely lose.

 Perhaps at this moment, Alexei's defeat was determined.

 Compared to other crews who frequently moved to different locations to shoot location scenes, the crew of "Shark Beach" indeed faced much less trouble.

The weather has been good these days, but the weather forecast is that the wind and waves will get worse next week. Martin has slightly adjusted the shooting plan. He will shoot an outdoor scene first. When the weather gets bad, the crew will return to the studio area to shoot the scene in the studio.

 Alexandrovich looked up at the audience, where the supporters were waiting for him.

There were two boats nearby, and two photographers photographed Blake's performance from different angles.

 Simply denying is not effective, and the same goes for direct verbal counterattacks.

He took the microphone, stood up from his seat, and went directly to the front and center of the rostrum. Facing thousands of Ukrainian people in front of him, hundreds of media reporters, and live television cameras, he bent his legs and fell to his knees.

In the sea water, Blake, wearing an orange-red bikini, lay on the surfboard, stroking the water with his hands, and swam forward.

Among the directors he has worked with in the past, Nolan is the kind of person who likes to shoot by himself. David Fincher and Chad Starsky are both directors who rarely operate cameras.

 The shooting was completely left to the photography team.

 Professional people do professional things.

In addition, the first assistant director Steven Downton is on Martin's ship and can assist Martin in solving problems as soon as he encounters them.

 Martin only needs to focus on the camera.

 The film crew is experienced and has worked with Martin on the "John Wick" trilogy, so there is no doubt about their ability.

Of course, Martin was more of a leading man at that time.

 But the two sides knew each other well enough. As long as Martin said the shot effect he wanted, the film crew would quickly understand it.

 Most of the shots produced will satisfy Martin.

If you are not satisfied with the situation, the two parties can communicate again and it can be resolved.

 Blake shouted to the empty sea in front of him: "Hey, I'm here to surf too."

There is no one there at all, the shots are all shot separately, and the dialogue between the two sides will be realized through cross-editing.

Blake asked with a smile: "What is the name of this beach?"

　　On the director's monitor, the footage shot by the main camera was transmitted in real time. The camera followed Blake's long legs, swept up her hot figure, and landed on her slightly older face.

Martin couldn't help frowning when he saw Blake's bright and enthusiastic smile, picked up the loudspeaker at hand, and shouted: "Stop!"

The crew that was busy filming immediately stopped operations.

Black's head, which was originally tilted, fell back to the surfboard, and he lay on it and didn't want to move.

Although he had enough expectations for the difficulty of performing the scenes in the water, when it came to filming, Blake found that it was much more difficult than imagined. The resistance of the water was too great. He had to maintain the posture of moving forward in the water and maintain the performance state at all times, which was physically demanding. It is several times that of usual filming.

Martin glanced at Blake and said, "Rest for fifteen minutes." He waved into the water: "Blake, come up."

 Blake rowed to the back of the boat, walked onto the back deck, took the blanket from the assistant, wrapped it around him, and went to Martin's position on the front deck.

 Martin was communicating with Steve Downton: "Is there something wrong with the performance of this scene? Nancy, a beautiful and **** single woman, met two men on such a rarely visited beach..."

 Steve Downton reacted immediately and said: "According to the setting of Nancy's self-rescue, she should maintain a certain degree of vigilance."

 Martin saw Blake coming and pointed to the chair next to him: "Sit."

 Blake sat next to Martin and asked: "Is there something wrong with my performance just now?"

Most directors in Hollywood will not let actors see the footage during filming, unless the actor is very powerful.

Ten years ago, this was even an unwritten rule in Hollywood.

Times have changed, and part-time directors like Martin, who is a halfway decent director, are not so particular. He can directly adjust the monitor and replay the footage he just shot.

 Blake watched it carefully. She was not a very intelligent actor. In terms of pure acting skills, there are countless supporting actors in Hollywood who could kill her instantly.

 Martin asked: “Do you see the problem?”

 Blake grabbed his wet blond hair and asked, "Is there something wrong with my posture? I crushed my **** into a pancake, which made my figure not **** and hot enough in the photo?"

 Steve couldn't help but glance at Blake, and finally understood why she still couldn't get to the top despite her second-generation celebrity aura, her father being a well-known producer, and Martin supporting her below.

A lot of resources and acting talent are really average.

“Nancy should have basic vigilance when encountering two strange men on this rarely visited beach.” Martin repeated what he just said.

 Blake nodded: "Yes, I ignored this. I will pay attention to the next performance."

 Martin said no more: "Let's take a rest."

 He and Steve came to the side, waiting for another ship to approach, and discussed matters to be paid attention to in the subsequent shooting with the director of photography Dan Rostsheen.

 The rest time passed quickly, Blake got back into the water, and filming started again.

 Between the filming, Blake, who was wearing a bikini, also took some selfies of surfing as requested by Martin and posted them on Twitter and INS.

“My new film has started shooting, and the content will remain the same for the time being, and it's about the sea.”

 The Lace Leader's social media post quickly attracted the attention of fans.

 “Blake is still in such good shape.”

 “I would like to call it the best figure among Hollywood actresses!”

“This film won't be filmed in swimsuits all the time, right? If that's the case, I'll go to the theater to support it with a $20 ticket!”

 “Strongly request bloggers to take full swimsuit photos!”

 “Support +1!”

"support…"

 After several years of long-term development, as a fitness expert, fashion blogger and lace guru, Blake Lively's influence on social media far exceeds her status as a Hollywood star.

If it were an ordinary actress, she might just become an internet celebrity.

 But Blake Lively comes from a Hollywood family and has a considerable pursuit of status in the industry. However, his ability in publicity and marketing far exceeds his acting skills.

  She is very aware of the weight and attention that Martin's directorial debut will receive.

 As to whether the film will be successful or not.

 Blake actually has no confidence in Martin, but she has full confidence in Martin's ability to make money.

Look at the directors of various departments on the production team. People outside the industry may not have heard of them, but everyone inside the industry knows that they are all experienced elites in their respective industries.

Moreover, Martin is decisive, not arrogant, and can listen to opinions.

Another key point is that the producer of the film, Louise Lyle, is one of the few female gold medal producers in Hollywood. With her in charge of the overall situation, even if the film is not very good, it will not be bad.

After several more scenes were filmed, Black was panting from exhaustion and sat on the boat not wanting to move.

Her eyes passed through Overtime and fell on Martin.

 Martin is focusing on work, discussing with several assistant directors how to shoot the next scenes.

The entire crew ran very smoothly, and it was not obvious that the director was a novice at all.

Blake calmed his breathing and secretly sighed that his ability was really amazing.

She looked at Martin from a distance and suddenly felt that this film might really be successful.

 It doesn't matter even if he fails, it's been almost ten years since he met Martin in 2005, and Black knows what kind of person Martin is.

Super **** is not enough to describe him, nor is it too much to say he is a **** addict.

 But Martin is also a man of conscience, and if this film really fails, Black feels that Martin will definitely compensate himself in other ways.

 She is very confident about this.

Thinking of this, Blake suddenly looked up at the sky and slapped himself hard.

If she hadn't done it at the beginning, Elizabeth Olsen's position should have been hers!

“It's almost evening, transition!” Assistant Director Robert Eggers shouted: “Props team! Drag the buoy over and drag it to the marked point!”

 A speedboat towed the buoy towards the deep sea.

 Martin looked at his watch and said, "Hurry up, we only have one hour to shoot the sunset scene!"

 The whole crew is busy.

 Blake got up to warm up for the next shoot.

 The scenes where the heroine fights with sharks are basically shot in a studio.

Martin said to his deputy Steve: "Take a long-range wide-angle shot facing the sunset." He glanced at the sun approaching the seaside: "Time waits for no one, and we will start shooting in ten minutes."

 Steve nodded and hurried to arrange the set.
