Chapter 11 MV shooting
It sounded like Leon had no option of refusing, but he really didn't want to spend the entire night in a dim bar smelling the pungent scent of leaves.

"Bonnie, you want to be famous too, right?"

This question stunned Bonnie. Which girl from the slums wouldn't want to be famous?
Lisa just got a chance to dance on the edge of the stage at Beyoncé's concert, but she was happier than if she had been admitted to an Ivy League school.

Seeing that Bonnie remained silent, Leon continued, "I can give you a chance. If you are willing to accept it, can I not accompany you to that boring party?"

"what chance?"

"Are you interested in filming a music video?"

"Of course I'm interested!"

Bonnie's eyes lit up as soon as she heard the MV.

There are countless female stars who have become famous by attracting attention through appearing in music videos. This opportunity is much rarer than being a backup dancer at a concert.

After her excitement wore off, she quickly realized something was amiss. She stared at Li Ang suspiciously and asked, "Which celebrity's music video are you talking about?"

Faced with doubts, Li Ang raised his right hand expressionlessly and pointed at himself.

"you?"

A surge of anger rose from the bottom of her heart and quickly burned to Bonnie's throat.

She roared with a trembling voice, "You bastard, do you think I'm so easy to fool? I'd rather believe that the Apollo moon landing was real than this!"

At this point, no matter what Leon said, it would be meaningless. Without strong evidence, it would be impossible to convince Bonnie.

He pulled a copy of the contract he had signed with T-ray from his pocket and placed it in front of Bonnie, "Read it for yourself."

Bonnie blinked her eyes and stared for a full five minutes before cautiously asking, "Are you saying that T-ray on Chester Street signed you?"

"It's not really a contract, but we are indeed a partnership now. Hey, why are you riding on me?"

"Shxt! Aren't you in a hurry to go to the birthday party?!"

Bonnie was instantly overwhelmed by joy. She violently tore off her clothes and pressed Leon under her.

For her, participating in the MV shooting of a small-time star like Li Ang is secondary.

What’s important is that his roommate will become a recording artist, which will be something he can brag about for a long time.

Two days later, T-RAY led the filming crew to the door of the church where Li Ang often received relief meals.

After repeated discussions, he and Li Ang both felt that this was the best choice as the MV shooting location.

On the one hand, the scene here echoes the song "Take Me to Church", and on the other hand, there is a giant "Street Coconut Crisps" graffiti nearby.

"Damn it! You bunch of damn losers, get out of here right now. God is not here today, get out!"

T-RAY, who works part-time as a MV director, drove away all the homeless people around him like they were driving away stray dogs. Faced with such a big shot with a gang background, they had no choice but to do as he asked.

"Tommy, the first video is a long shot. Make sure your damn camera is accurately positioned on Leon!"

"The whole background of the church must be captured, including the cross, coconut cakes, and so on!"

"Do you understand what I'm saying?"

T-RAY was like a tyrant on the set, and almost every staff member was assigned work under his roar.

"You're a pretty good director." Li Ang joked.

T-Ray rolled his eyes at Li Ang and said proudly, "Bro, you don't know how many music video shoots I've seen. No one knows the directing business better than me."

Li Ang could only agree with this. At least T-ray's arrangements for the scene really left him speechless.

"action!"

With T-RAY's order, the shooting officially began.

Li Ang was wearing a white monastic robe, with his back to the camera, facing the cross and the church.

"Yes, that's it. Now it's the first half of the song."

"Turn around slowly, open your arms, raise your head and pay attention to your expression. Control your facial expressions!"

At T-RAY's instruction, Leon opened his arms and stood in front of the church like a penitent.

"The lighting isn't right, lighting engineer! Highlight his profile to emphasize the contrast between light and dark on both sides!" "Excellent, everyone did a great job!"

"You can stop now!"

After the first shot was completed, Li Ang needed to change into a pure black suit, and even the shirt underneath was black.

The call of "Amen Amen" will be followed by the chorus, and the following MV shooting will mainly echo this part.

"Girls, it's your turn now!"

"Let me see which little bitch isn't twisting hard enough. I'll take off my copper-headed leather belt and spank her hard!"

After receiving the order, Bonnie immediately rushed behind Leon. She had been waiting for this moment for too long!

The costumes T-RAY prepared for the girls were also quite bold. They also wore black tight latex suits on their upper bodies and black fishnet stockings with high heels on their lower bodies.

Each girl is also equipped with a small whip.

This kind of attire might not seem like much at midnight on Manhattan Beach, but this is a church in broad daylight!

"action!"

T-RAY gave another order, and the girls twisted their bodies as hard as they could in front of the church like succubi.

Then, following the director's instructions, she turned her back to the camera and started shaking her butt.

This scene looks a bit absurd and full of cult atmosphere.

"Not enough, not enough girls"

"You have to imagine yourselves as fallen angels. Damn judgment and atonement!"

"Damn lighting technician, give me highlights! A butt without highlights is soulless!"

After being yelled at by T-RAY, the two lighting technicians quickly brought large and small fill-light equipment and evenly spread the holy white light on the girls' taillights.

"Don't squeeze me white bitch, I'll crush your poor taillights!"

"Shut up! Don't make me rip your mouth off, bitch!"

As the only white girl in the group, Bonnie naturally suffered some exclusion, but she always fought back mercilessly.

She spared no effort for this opportunity to show her face, and took out a bottle of essential oil from somewhere and sprinkled it on her butt.

Her shiny and white appearance made her particularly eye-catching among a group of black girls.

At this time, Li Ang appeared in the picture and walked in front of the girls.

The pure black suit created a completely different scene from before.

He completed the transformation from savior to devil, facing God's butcher knife without a trace of mercy.

"Nothing can be more perfect than this." T-RAY was so excited that his voice trembled.

"Card!"

"Everyone did a great job! Even in my 20-plus years of career, I've rarely seen a filming go so smoothly."

"All the girls, including the staff, come to my club later and relax. I'll pay the bill!"

As soon as he finished speaking, cheers broke out at the scene.

T-RAY came up to Li Ang and whispered, "Your performance today was really good, Bai boy. Maybe you're more talented as an actor than a singer."

"By the way, the girl you brought is absolutely amazing. I haven't seen such an exciting white girl in a long time!"

"Can you"

"No! Don't try to hit on her, buddy!" Li Ang could figure out what T-RAY was going to say next with his toes, and he sternly rejected him.

It was obvious that he and Bonnie were just roommates, and he did this simply because even though she was a stripper, Bonnie was a good girl with principles.

Her principle is to never sleep with black people.
