"If I am elected, I will work to alleviate racial problems in California. Whether Asians or blacks, as long as they follow American ideals, they can integrate into our mainstream society..."
Ronald watched TV. Ross Perot, who was running as an independent candidate, finally went to California to campaign for the election. On TV, he also went to downtown Los Angeles and Koryo City, where the riots were serious, and had live contact with the people there. He is now
The polls are ahead of the current leader, George Sr., and the Donkey Party candidate, the former governor of Arkansas.
The last time something like this happened in a general election, when an independent candidate was leading in the polls, was during the time of Theodore Roosevelt. Ronald admired this man's marketing ability, and he also recruited Michael Gray and Pat
·Kingsley hopes that two public relations and marketing experts will help him do some research on why such a candidate who spent little money can obtain such good polling data. If this can be learned and used in movie marketing
, isn’t it awesome?
However, the explanations of the two experts made Ronald realize that there is no free lunch in this world. Although it claims that it does not require supporters to donate more than five dollars, Perot's recent advertisements have already cost him one thousand two hundred dollars.
Ten thousand U.S. dollars.
To this end, he also removed the only media expert on the campaign team, Ronald Ronald Sr.'s campaign media consultant Hal Rainey, and his campaign director Ed Rollins also resigned immediately.
This man is more of a religious leader than a shrewd businessman. He requires all his supporters to swear allegiance to him. He also believes that his reputation is controversial enough that he can appear on talk shows for free anyway.
, no advertising is needed at all.
"Talk about issues, don't talk about ideas!" Many black people in the audience shouted.
During this period, they have been receiving candidates every day, including those running for office, senators, mayors, and gubernatorial candidates from other states who came to get some media attention. These people have had enough of this.
This is an empty speech. What they want is policies that can help them reduce crime rates and increase employment rates.
"Okay, let's talk about the problem. What I want to create is an America that restores the quality of its public education system, an America where you can leave your doors unlocked, as long as you people can..."
"What?"
The signal at the scene ended here, and the curses of the black people were not broadcast. Ronald was also shocked. How could this Perot make such a mistake without being a professional media expert? What do you mean by "you people"
?”
Black people will not forgive their candidate for calling him this. This kind of statement full of white supremacists is, to some extent, the same level of insulting language as the word starting with N.
…
"How could this guy be so stupid?"
Ronald received George Jr., who had returned from Texas, at home again. The publisher of "The Last Man Who Surrendered", Warner Bros., received a letter of inquiry from the White House. It was used privately without the permission of the commander-in-chief.
Their images are edited into movies, which is a theoretical infringement.
At the same time, powerful departments under the command of the general also began to exert force on Warner Bros. Especially their "Batman" series of movies, which resulted in losses in accounting, and this time also attracted an inquiry and investigation from the IRS.
There were rumors that the investigation into the Israeli espionage case that had been left undisclosed that year had been reopened. Some Israeli producers who were conducting espionage activities in Hollywood were involved. For a time, various unfavorable remarks about Jews began to increase in the film industry.
However, this Warner Bros. movie was not banned. Because the generals are not ordinary people, they are politicians and public figures. Therefore, whether Warner Bros.'s large-scale use of their portraits and images constitutes infringement is a gray area.
.
Of course, the most important part is that if the commander-in-chief wants to win the election, he still cannot do without the Jewish-controlled media group. These mass media have a decisive impact on a person's reputation.
This time, little George came to negotiate with the Jews to a certain extent on behalf of the family. There is talk of how to modify the film to reflect the Jews' apology and sincerity to the current leader.
Ronald did not come forward, but asked Richard and others to help coordinate. In the end, it is very likely that the plot that is disrespectful to Old George will be significantly modified, and then some re-filmed lines that are neutral or even slightly biased towards Old George...
Just as it happened, the TV was broadcasting an interview with Perot's media adviser Ed Rollins, who was forced to resign.
According to this person, Perot actually didn’t know much about the needs of the people at the bottom. He was also too superstitious about his own “charm” and was coy about where to spend his money...
After his last gaffe in the black area, he once again encountered trouble in Orange County, a predominantly white middle-class area. This time, a member of the ACT UP organization, representing the minority group of victims of XX disease, asked him to talk about how to solve the problem.
this problem.
Unexpectedly, Perot was unprepared for this. He hesitated for a long time and then did not answer the question.
"Perot sometimes has a lot of obsessions. He always thinks that the current commander-in-chief has let the CIA install people in his campaign team, so my resignation is also related to this... However, I still want to say that more people can
A choice is also a good thing. Although I no longer work in his team, I will still vote for him..."
Ronald was stunned. Could it be that Perot made frequent mistakes because George Sr. sent the CIA to be an undercover agent in his team? He looked at George Sr.
"Hehe, I can only say that he is not..." Little George denied with a smile.
That means the other people are undercover Ronald? Ronald laughed. This undercover is quite powerful. He squeezes out people who are not undercover and have the ability to help Perot...
This chapter is not finished yet, please click the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "In America, it is impossible to break away from the two-party system and run for leadership. At most, try public offices at the level of mayor or state legislator.
." Little George didn't want to say more, and just clicked on the key.
…
George Jr. spent a few days and attended many parties in Hollywood. The people from Warner Bros. entertained him very well, and in the end they just pressed Steve Segel's head and asked him to reshoot and modify the shots.
After getting what he wanted, little George went back to Washington DC for business.
Ronald also gained a new understanding of the combination of American politics and business. If these politicians want to rise to power, they cannot do without the help of the Jewish media as a group, nor the donations of Jewish financial groups. But conversely,
After these politicians take office, they can command powerful departments to punish a certain Jew, which is also a very powerful deterrent.
In other words, it is not a problem for them to suppress a certain wealthy Jewish businessman or investigate a certain espionage incident in Israel. However, they will be unable to deal with a Jewish group. If you take away one, the one you replace will still be the same.
Jewish people. On the contrary, after the relationship with them becomes tense, it will be difficult to win the next election.
Ronald then began polishing the script for "Sugar-Coated Trap" and began making casting decisions.
First of all, the Italian actor who looked like Clemenza, Julia Taylor found a suitable candidate called Joe Vitavilli.
Like the actor who played Clemenza in The Godfather, he was also very fat and had a very Italian face.
Joe Vitavelli is very interesting. During the audition, he also said that he is from Manhattan. He was very poor when he was a child. He liked playing guitar but was embarrassed to show it in front of others because he was afraid of being called a sissy by his Italian friends.
As soon as Ronald heard these words, he knew that this man was a real New York Italian. This kind of contempt for artistic people is an emotion only the lower-class Italians have. In New York, there are poor Italians, so
Regarding his background, if you say his family doesn’t have some gang background, no one will believe it.
This kind of person, who has been exposed to it since childhood, is more similar to the portrayal of gangsters. Ronald told Julia Taylor on the spot that this casting was very good.
As for the supporting actress who helped the protagonists, the Mitchers, there were two people selected in the final round. One was Holly Hunter recommended by Julia Taylor. She had made a very strange movie "Bringing Up" with Nicolas Cage.
"Arizona", playing a female police officer who married a criminal and even kidnapped a baby for the sake of a child.
The other is Helen Slater's best friend, Helen Hunt. Like Holly Hunt, she previously acted in independent films to hone her acting skills. Her image is more like a traditional American company member.
secretary.
So choosing these two people means choosing this role, whether it is a neurotic female secretary full of adventurous spirit, or a conservative female secretary who is forced to cooperate with Mitchell to steal her boss's client information to protect herself.
Ronald felt that although there were not many roles in this role, the plot was at key turning points, so it was very important to have a good actor. He actually couldn't express his preference on who to choose, but casting director Julia Taylor highly recommended it.
Holly Hunter said that her acting skills are so perfect that she has the level of an Oscar-winning actress.
Ronald also preferred Holly Hunter, but he considered it from a business perspective. The role of this secretary had too few scenes, and there was obviously not enough time to lay out how she was forced to become Mitchell's accomplice.
.This two-and-a-half-hour movie is already too long. In this way, Helen Hunt’s role is not as suitable as Holly Hunter’s.
Because Helen Hunt was Helen Slater's best friend, Ronald had to tell her the news of his defeat in person.
"So, this is not a decision based on acting skills, but a decision based on the current status of the project. If the plot changes direction, I will be happy to cooperate with you. But now it is too involved to rewrite this role.
, I have to do this for the sake of the project.”
"Don't say that, Ronald. I understand, even if it's because of my acting skills, I can accept it. It's just that if I can't get this role now, I have to think about it for myself. You know, I have only filmed some independent films.
The movies she made were not as lucky as Helen."
"If there's anything I can do, just tell me." Ronald thought to himself that Helen Hunt was a good friend. She had taken good care of Helen Slater, who had anorexia. She had been acting in small productions and didn't have much money.
, whether it was asking Ronald to recommend making a commercial film, accepting an advertisement, or even lending him a sum of money, he was going to agree.
After all, Helen Slater was also jealous of the star on the Walk of Fame, and had expressed her desire to fulfill her wish for an acting career several times on the phone.
Making your girlfriend's best friend happy means making your girlfriend happy, which also means making yourself worry-free. Ronald can figure this out very well.
"I'm a little embarrassed to say it. I want to take a role in a TV series. I heard that you have some connections at NBC. Can you give me a recommendation? I also entered the final round of casting there."
"The TV series is very good. You don't know, TV series stars may earn more than movie stars now." Ronald thought to himself, this is nothing. "What's the name of that TV series? I have a partner, Bannon,
He has many cooperative projects with NBC, and I will ask him to help recommend them, and I will also call people at NBC." Ronald agreed immediately.
"Mad About You" tells the story of two Yale graduate lovers who live in New York after getting married..."
"Oh..." Ronald was a little embarrassed to hear this. He and Helen Slater had no chance to live this kind of life.
Fortunately, her best friend Helen Hunt didn't say anything. She was very happy to say that if she got the role, she would go back and call Helen Slater to share the secret of her success.
The two of them had a tacit understanding and solved this small problem.
Over there, Holly Hunter got good news from casting director Julia Taylor. She came over to thank Ronald.
"Don't say that, I haven't actually made a decision, but I believe in Julia Taylor's vision. Her vision for casting is ten times better than mine, and I've never been disappointed when I listened to her. I've watched your performance in Bringing Up
Arizona, but without Taylor's recommendation, I probably wouldn't have remembered..."
Ronald never takes credit for the work of his subordinates and partners. Everyone understands that he made the final decision on such matters, and there is no need to emphasize it again. Instead, giving credit to those who deserve it will make actors and casting directors
I have received very good positive feedback, and my enthusiasm for working is even better.
"Having said that, I still have to say thank you. If it weren't for you, I would have almost no money to buy clothes." Holly Hunter also expressed her heartfelt thanks. She has always liked to shoot independent films, and she just completed it in New Zealand
A movie produced by Miramax's Harvey Weinstein.
These movies focus on the character's heart, which poses a great challenge to the actors' acting skills. However, their weakness is that the commercial box office is not high, and the pay is not high.
Among commercial films, Holly Hunter likes supporting roles like Ronald's "Sugar-coated Trap" the most. The pay for big-budget films is not low and the shooting time is not long, which does not hinder her artistic pursuit.
Ronald also has choices for the remaining heroines, three are related, and dozens are unrelated. His favorite is Robin White. The appearance of this actor is very suitable for the kind of person who is desperate for love.
His looks and acting skills are adequate.
The rest is either lacking in acting skills or looks. Coupled with the endorsement of Bob Reiner, who directed her, Robin White is an actor who can very well cooperate with the director's ideas. She has to save a lot of things on the set.
Because of this, Ronald was also partial to her in his heart.
Asking Julia Taylor to send a notice to inform them of the casting results, Ronald went home to be with his wife and children. Such days are the greatest luxury of successful people, as they do not have to sacrifice their most important family for money.
"Independent candidate Ross Perot announced his withdrawal from the race. He claimed that media investigations showed that his candidacy is likely to result in no candidate receiving a majority of the electoral votes, resulting in the need for the House of Representatives to vote to determine the candidate for the leadership. He does not want this to happen.
Condition.
According to anonymous sources close to Perot, Perot believes that if he continues to run for office, the New Black Panther Party and a few people who think about the group will assassinate him. He does not want to end up like RFK...
However, analysts generally believe that his election was due to the continued decline in opinion polls. His national approval rating has dropped below 20%. His recent controversial speech has made him popular among blacks, ethnic minorities, and minorities, XX
The group of carriers is declining rapidly..."
"Ouch..." Ronald watched the news, not knowing whether what Perot said was true or false. After the gaffe, he once gave up his temporary running mate, former Navy General James Stockdale, and switched to
Black civil rights leader Jesse Jackson and Dr. Bernardine Healy, director of the National Institutes of Health, were sought as deputy commanders, but both were rejected.
Looking back, the former Navy veteran who was deaf due to being a prisoner of war for seven years in the Vietnam War, Perot's temporary running mate James Stockdale, and the military-industrial complex he represents behind him may also be interested in Perot.
dissatisfied with the decision.
If you put it this way, the so-called assassination may not be groundless.
There are many ways to solve the problem...
Ronald was daydreaming when Diane came over with the phone and handed it to him, "Julia is calling."
"Thank you...", Ronald answered the phone, and casting director Julia Taylor said on the other end of the phone:
"Ronald, Robin White suddenly changed her mind. She said that after discussing with her boyfriend Sean Penn, she would give up the heroine of this movie..."
