Dominating Hollywood: Starting with Scarlett

Chapter 35 The sap behind the scenes
  In the evening, Tone was driving home after drinking.

His family lives on the outskirts of the Bronx, close to the seaside, and the environment is very quiet.

After avoiding sections of the road that were easily searched by the police, he finally arrived safely near his home. Turning off the car, taking off the keys and getting out, he muttered: "Bullshit creativity, when shooting a MV, simplicity and efficiency are the right things. Do you think I'm right?"

Even though there was no one around him, he kept mumbling to himself in the air. It was obvious that Tone was drunk.

And just when he left the car door, several black boys suddenly passed by and heard his voice taunting: "Look, you white drunkard was not arrested by the police? Do you want me to call 911 for you?"

"FXXK, get lost, black boy!" Tone waved his hand impatiently. Why are there black people in his neighborhood, which is obviously a white neighborhood?

Damn it, I must let the guard watch carefully next time, and I can't let these black monkeys wander around so proudly!
  But as soon as he thought of this, he saw the faces of several black people suddenly turned ugly.

"What did he just say?"

"He just said nigger!"

"Yeah, I heard it, nigga, he discriminated against us."

"What nigger? I'm talking about black people!" Even though he was drunk, Tone knew that these two words should not be spoken carelessly, so he hurriedly corrected him.

The leading black boy said angrily: "Look, he said it again, he is discriminating against us!"

"FXXK! Beat him! Brothers!"

"Wait a minute, I didn't say nigger!" Tone was so frightened that he wanted to run away, but when he turned around, he tripped over a curb and fell to the ground.

"Again! FXXK! Shit! You fucking racist!"

"Death to racism!"

"Damn white pig!"

The three black boys chased after him and punched him hard, making Ton cry for his father and mother. He wanted to resist, but someone stepped on his knee. There was a crisp sound and the whole person howled miserably.

"broken!"

"Let's go! Let's go quickly!" One of them grabbed the leading black boy.

"Bah! You deserve it!" another man spat at him, and they quickly got into a black car and left the block.

And Tone was holding his legs and groaning in pain on the ground.

After hearing the sound, the male owner of the neighbor's house ran out of the house with a gun. However, the surroundings were empty at this time. There was no criminal anywhere. Only Tone was left on the ground shouting.

"Tone, hold on, I'll call you an ambulance!" The male neighbor kindly took out his mobile phone, but the next second Ton grabbed his hand and begged: "No, don't call an ambulance!"

"But you..."

"Please, drive me to the hospital."

The next day, Tang De received a call from Mike.

"Well, I don't know if this is good news or bad news, Tang De." Mike on the phone said with emotion: "Tone was beaten yesterday, saying he was beaten because of an altercation with a black man, and then his Broken leg."

"Broken bones? What about the MV?" Tang De asked.

"MV...Tone will definitely not be able to direct it. Now there is only one option, and that is to let Jose take over."

"Is Jose OK? I mean his ability."

"He's okay. He's directed a music video before, so he's not a novice. But he may have to rely more on you, Tang De."

"Rely on me?" Tang De pretended to be surprised: "I'm just a photographer."

"Come on, Tang De, you are not just a photographer. Don't worry, I will calculate more money for you. How about dividing Ton's share between you two? He can't get it anyway."

"If that's the case, then I'll take the responsibility." Although Tang De raised the corner of his mouth, his tone was quite helpless.

After Mike finished talking to him about this matter, he suddenly asked again: "Tang De, his hospitalization has nothing to do with you...well, it should have nothing to do with you."

"What do you mean, Mike?" Tang De frowned: "Is it just because I have filmed a music video for black people that I can instruct black people to beat people for me?"

"No, no, no, that's not what I meant. I just thought it was a coincidence. He just had a quarrel with you..."

"You also participated in the meeting. You should also know that with his kind of virtue, it is unexpected that he will not be beaten."

"That's right, okay, Tang De, I'll leave it to you."

"Don't worry...I will take good photos."

After hanging up the phone, Tang De smiled and said to himself: "Mike is quite keen, but there is no evidence, right?" Finally the troublemaker was kicked out, and he could finally realize his idea. The last time he shot Raymond Because the budget for the MV was too small, I could only shoot some indoor scenes, which was not satisfying at all.

But this time, he planned to have a big fight.

Putting down the storyboard he had already drawn, he received a call from Jose soon after.

On the phone, Jose said that he would assist Tang De in filming the MV and that if you have any needs or ideas, you can tell him.

It seems that he should have communicated with Mike and wisely gave the leading position to Tang De.

"It's better this way. It saves me the trouble."

Three days later, at the scene of Kelly Rowland's MV shooting, Tang De, as the photographer and assistant director, met Nelly and Kelly Rowland.

Kelly Rowland has classic short red hair. Although her skin color is dark, it is not dark, but like healthy wheat. She looks fresh and lively.

Nelly, on the other hand, was wearing a large white T-shirt, a baseball cap on his back, and a silver necklace hanging around his neck that reached almost to his waist.

The two of them were talking and laughing, and behind them were their managers and their good friends. They will make guest appearances in the entire MV, and even Kelly's real mother is included.

This is also a way to save budget, since there are only a few lenses in total anyway.

After they arrived at the set, they entered the dressing car. Jose and Tang De also came to the car with new storyboards to communicate with the two people.

"Hey!" Jose greeted first, then handed the storyboard to the two of them: "This is a new version of the MV storyboard. It is more creative than the previous one. You can take a look."

Kelly nodded and took it and said with a smile: "Let me see, oh, it seems that a lot of new shots have been added."

"Yes."

As for Nelly, she didn't answer and said directly: "You don't need to look, you just need to tell me what to do."

"Okay, let Tang De talk to you. He is the assistant director and photographer, and this is also his idea." Jose pushed Tang De forward, and he said with a smile: "I know you may think that the MV is a very Simple stuff, Nelly, how long did it take to shoot your previous MV?”

Nelly thought for a moment and tilted her head and said, "Seven hours, what's wrong?"

Tang De raised his eyebrows: "Our shooting time will be three times as long."

"What?" Nelly frowned: "Why does it take so long? I have other plans."

Kelly also became curious: "Are there any difficult scenes?"

"Of course!" Seeing their interest, Tang De said confidently: "This is not an ordinary MV, and I never shoot simple MVs. So, let me tell you the picture..."

"Nelly, you and Kelly are standing on a dark street, with street lights on both sides and burning vehicles behind you. The sky-high firelight and the empty street are like a reflection of the two of you, a burning fire. But it’s just lonely souls comforting each other.”

This is actually the scene between Beyoncé and Jay-Z in the MV. When this MV was released, I don’t know how many fans were fascinated by it.

After describing the scene, Tang De asked: "Do you think this is cool?"

"It's so cool!" Kelly was the first to open her eyes and look at Nelly: "This fits our song very well."

Nelly also shook her head: "Yeah, that's right, the burning car, wow, it sounds so cool already."

"And we plan to continue this style throughout the song. It is not just about acquaintances and duets, but about expressing the true emotions in the song, so that fans can tirelessly watch it over and over again. When the time comes, the audio and video The store will also continuously circulate your MV, do you think this will be good for sales?"

"Of course! I can't wait just listening to it!" Kelly reached out her hand excitedly.

Nelly nodded in agreement: "Just shoot like this, man!"
