Chapter 818: The Price
In April, Justin Bieber became the hottest news figure in the nation, making countless media headlines.
Although there is no shortage of support for him, in the mainstream public opinion, the singer has become the target of criticism, and even caused protests and demonstrations across the United States.
Numerous black, gay, and morph groups have publicly criticized Justin Bieber and called on everyone to boycott Justin's work.
Ordinary fans, fans, and the public may not care about this, but in the mainstream media's rhetoric, Justin has been heinous.
Numerous celebrities have come out and made harsh criticisms.
Apple's CEO Tim Cook said Justin didn't know what respect was, Magic Johnson's son thought Justin needed to apologize to the world, and Ellen DeGeneres invited Justin to a talk show to debate with him on the spot......
These are influencing public opinion.
The entertainment industry, which has become more and more left-leaning in recent years, has also made a series of actions against Justin Bieber to prove itself right.
Apple has publicly announced that all of Justin's songs will be removed from iTunes.
YouTube also blocked Justin's paid song section.
Many online channels have suspended their cooperation with Justin.
In just one week, Justin Bieber has gone from promising to a stinking street existence.
Although Justin Bieber, under pressure from his agency and record labels, came forward to apologize publicly, it did not help in a short period of time and instead attracted more criticism.
There are also shapeshifter groups that rely on Buff to constantly toxing Justin's address, maintaining 24-hour uninterrupted protests, harassment, and stalking.
Even when Justin was buying drugs, he called the police, causing the buyer and seller to be stolen.
Without a few years of PR and hard work, it is simply impossible for Justin Bieber to be a normal singer.
This incident also brought another result, LGBT took advantage of this turmoil to develop rapidly, although the following QIA did not have much influence for the time being, but the four groups that emerged set off wave after wave.

"I feel something, Martin."
In the VIP room near the airport's private tarmac, Nicholson sat on the sofa and said seriously: "The three of us seem to have opened a Pandora's box and pushed society into an unknown abyss. ”
Martin doesn't see it that way: "You overestimate the ability of the three of us, even without us, without Justin Bieber, you can't stop this craze, at most it will appear a year or two later." ”
Leonardo has been in a particularly good mood this week, and the smile is always on his face, and at this time he answers: "Jack, have you forgotten Martin's ideals when he was drunk?" It may not be long before we see Martin with his army of shape-shifting beauties storming Washington, D.C., capturing the White Room and sitting in the Oval Office. ”
"Have you been to Giselle Bonchen lately?" Martin, a cruel fellow, was not happy to see Leonardo.
Leonardo's good mood vanished, his round face collapsed directly, and he gritted his teeth: "What a bastard, Martin!" ”
Nicholson asked him, "Do you want me to be on your side in the future?" ”
Leonardo understood the bastard: "At what cost, Jack? ”
Nicholson's conditions were very simple: "Marry Lorraine." ”
Martin slapped Leonardo, "So, man, we're in this group." ”
Leonardo said: "We are really in this group when it comes to Lorraine. ”
Bruce came over and said, "The plane is ready." ”
Martin glanced at his watch: "You guys get on the plane, I'm going back to work at the Brooklyn studio in the afternoon." ”
Nicholson picked up the bag he had brought with him: "Let's go, go back to Los Angeles, and continue to eat melons." ”
Martin sent him and Leonardo out: "Just watch it, don't join it, especially Leo, don't think about making an LGBT genre film to win an award, it's not fair." ”
Nicholson heard the two mention about Oscar, and said: "If you play in a decent game, Leo has no chance of winning, although you have been racing for more than ten years, but you are no different from an idiot in public relations and publicity." ”
"So, the conditions I proposed, Martin won the best director, and I won the best actor." Leonardo remarked: "That's fair." ”
Nicholson snorted coldly: "As far as Martin's bastard level of tatters won the best director, I guess I've already gone to see God." ”
Martin couldn't help but scoff: "God won't see you." ”
Nicholson laughed: "Indeed, I don't want to see God either, Hollywood in recent years, as well as American society, has become more and more interesting, so many melons to eat, so much excitement to watch, I have no problem living for another fifteen years." ”
Leonardo said: "With the current situation, the future will only get more exciting. ”
Martin put the two men on his Global 6000 business jet, waited for the plane to take off, and then left the airport and rushed to the Brooklyn studio to continue filming "Fast and Furious 3".
In the past ten days, the crew has been going around Manhattan and shooting more than 30 location scenes.
Except for a few scenes that were going to Morocco for filming, there were two large-scale action scenes left.
They were fights in glass buildings, with Martin fighting alongside Blake Lively.
The former can be said to be an alternative glass story.
Martin and the stuntmen are constantly smashing special glass in action scenes.
The scene that cost nearly $4 million to build is ultimately destroyed.
If you don't smash it when shooting, you have to hire a special company to dispose of it later.
After a scene, Martin stepped on a glass shard, sat on the glass steps leading to the upper floor, and slowly drank water.
Two thinner stuntmen, under the leadership of Chen Hu, entered the set.
Next, Martin's one-on-two hand-to-hand combat scene was filmed.
Martin got up and handed the kettle to Bruce, and under the leadership of Chen Hu, he became familiar with the other two actors.
Chen Hu reminded the main points of the action: "Bart and Phil, the advantage of the two of you is speed and agility, you are faster than the tall Martin. ”
These two stuntmen are more than half a head taller than Martin, and their bodies are even thinner.
Chen Hu looked at Martin again: "Compared to these two typical swift enemies, Martin, your advantage lies in body and strength, just like a heavyweight boxer and a featherweight fighter, you have more strength and stronger ability to resist strikes. ”
Martin nodded, "I understand." ”
Chen Hu found another comparison for the effect of this scene: "Martin, you are like a lion, Bart and Phil are like two honey badgers, the latter can bring a lot of trouble to the lion with his flexibility, but the lion's counterattack only needs to hit once." ”
"We get it." Said the two stuntmen.
"Ready." Chen Hu walked back, came to the director's monitor, and said, "It's okay." ”
Chad nodded and said, "All departments are ready." ”
The scene reporter came to the camera to play the board, and the shooting began.
It's an action scene that lasts nearly half a minute, and Martin is attacked by a sudden attack, attacked by two people who cooperate tacitly, and his body shatters one piece of glass after another.
The footage is just a flash.
After Chad shouted to stop, Martin lifted his suit and shirt, and several pieces of broken glass fell with a clatter.
Chen Hu came over and asked, "You're not hurt, are you?" ”
Martin shook his head: "It's okay, it fell through the collar." ”
Chen Hu asked the two stuntmen again, made sure they had no problems, and said, "We are ready for the next fight, Martin, you have to fight back." ”
He first familiarized the three of them with the essentials of the action, and these scenes should be passed once, otherwise it would be quite troublesome to change the glass.
Filming went on in fits and starts, and it took three days for the action drama crew of the glass building to shoot it all.
Subsequently, Martin changed to a new partner, Blake Lively, with two German pastors, joined the shooting.
It's still a dog-induced tragedy.
Martin's and Blake's scenes are mainly divided into two parts, action scenes in the studio, and a small number of horseback riding scenes filmed in the Moroccan desert.
In order to shoot this action scene, Blake practiced for nearly half a year.
Of course, no one expected her to be at Martin's level.
When it comes to her scenes, many of them are short shots and coherent action scenes, and many of them need to rely on editing and post-processing to achieve the desired effect.
In the first two days of shooting, it went fairly well.
But by the afternoon of the third day, when the action scenes were at the end of the filming, the plans to shoot in Morocco had to be changed.
While filming a very simple action scene, Blake Lively stepped back a little more and hit the edge of a wooden table, and he couldn't stand up in pain.
Martin immediately had an ambulance called.
Blake was taken to the hospital, where he was found to have cracked three ribs of varying severity, one of which was fractured.
Doctors recommend bed rest and not any heavy activity.
Fortunately, Blake's action scenes were filmed in the final stages, and although Blake insisted on finishing the filming, Martin refused, asking for a double for the rest of the shots.
The crew's plan to travel to Morocco was forced to change, intending to wait until Blake Lively's injury was not serious, and then set up a green screen to shoot some of the shots involving Morocco and the desert in the studio of Disney Studios in Burbank.
These scenes are not many, and the background can be replaced in post-production.
After filming his own scene, Martin went to the hospital to visit Blake Lively before leaving New York.
"It's much better, if you lie still, you basically don't feel any pain." Lying on the hospital bed, Blake asked Martin, "Are you ready to go?" ”
Martin nodded slightly: ""The Thief in the City" is about to be released, and there are many promotional announcements waiting for me to participate, so I can't stay here to accompany you." ”
Blake was well aware that it was a luxury to keep Martin here for bed, saying: "I'm injured and it may take about two months to get completely well, and my swimming and surfing lessons will be delayed. “
Martin waved his hand: "It's okay, it's time." ”
Blake was worried about missing out on the project and the role, and said pitifully, "For my sake, can you wait for me for a while?" “
Martin was relieved: "The heroine of this project will only be you. ”
