Chapter 35: Behind the Stuffy Stick

In the evening, Thorn, who had finished drinking, was driving home.

His family lives on the outskirts of the Bronx, right next to the sea, in a quiet environment.

After avoiding sections of the road that were easy to be searched by the police, he finally arrived near his home safely. turned off the car, took off the key and got out of the car, he still muttered: "Bullshit creativity, shooting MV, simple and efficient is correct, do you think what I said is right?" ”

Even though there was no one around him, he kept muttering to himself into the air, and it was clear that Thorn was drunk.

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

"FXXK, fuck off, black boy!" Thorn waved his hand impatiently, how could there be blacks in his own neighborhood, when it was obviously a white neighborhood?

Damn it, next time you must let the doorman take a good look, you can't let this group of black-skinned monkeys wander around so proudly!

But as soon as he thought of this, he saw that the faces of several black people suddenly became ugly.

"What did he just say?"

"He just said!"

"That's right, I hear you,, he discriminates against us."

"What? I'm talking about blacks! Even when he was drunk, Thorn knew that these two words could not be said casually, so he hurriedly corrected them.

The black boy at the head said angrily: "Look, he said it again, he is discriminating against us!" ”

β€œFXXK! Hit him! Brothers! ”

"Wait, I didn't say!" Thorn was frightened and tried to run, but when he turned around, he tripped over the curb and fell to the ground.

"Again! FXXK! Shit! You damned racist! ”

"Kill racism!"

"Damn white-skinned pigs!"

The three black boys chased after him and it was an old punch, which made Thorn cry and cry his mother, and wanted to resist but didn't know who stepped on his knee, and the whole person howled miserably when there was a crisp sound.

"It's broken!"

"Let's go! Come on! One of them grabbed the black boy who was headed.

"Phew! Deserve! Another man spat at him, and then they quickly got into a black car and left the block.

Thorn, on the other hand, held his legs and groaned in pain on the ground.

When the neighbor's man heard the sound, he ran out of the house with a gun, but at this time the surroundings were empty, where there were any criminals, and only Thorn was left shouting on the ground.

"Thorn, hold on, I'll call you an ambulance!" The male neighbor kindly took out his mobile phone, but the next second Thorn grabbed his hand and begged: "Don't, don't find an ambulance!" ”

"But you ......"

"Please, drive me to the hospital."

The next day, Don received a call from Mike.

"Well, I don't know if that's good news or bad news, Donde." Mike on the phone was a little emotional: "Thorn was beaten up yesterday, saying that he was beaten because of a verbal altercation with a black man, and then he broke his leg. ”

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

β€œMV…… Thorn definitely can't direct, and now there is only one option, and that is to put Jose on top. ”

"Is Jose OK? I mean his abilities. ”

"He's okay, he's directed the MV, he's not a novice, but maybe it's more up to you, Donde."

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

"Come on, Donde, you're more than just a photographer. Don't worry, I'll give you more money, how about giving Thorn's share to the two of you? He couldn't get it anyway. ”

"In that case, I'll take it for granted." Although the corners of Tang De's mouth were provoked, his tone was quite helpless.

After Mike finished talking to him about this matter, he suddenly asked again: "Tang De, what do you ......... about his hospitalization Well, it shouldn't matter. ”

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

"No, no, no, I didn't mean that, I just thought it was a bit of a coincidence. He just got into a verbal altercation with you......"

"You also attended the meeting, and you should also know that with his virtue, it is unexpected not to be beaten."

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

"Rest assured...... I'll shoot it well. ”

Hanging up the phone, Don De smiled and said to himself: "Mike is quite sharp, but there is no evidence, is it?" ”

Finally kicked the obstructive one out, he can finally realize the idea in his heart, the last time he filmed Raymond's MV because the budget was too small, he could only pick and shoot some indoor scenes, which was not enjoyable at all.

And this time, he plans to engage in a big battle.

Putting down the storyboard he had already drawn in his hand, he received a call from JosΓ© shortly after.

On the phone, Jose said that he would assist Tang De in filming the MV, and he could talk to him if he needed anything or what kind of creativity.

It seems that he should have communicated with Mike, and he gave the dominant position to Tang De very well.

"It's better this way, I don't have to worry about it."

Three days later, on the set of Kelly Loren's MV, Donde, as a cinematographer and assistant director, met Nelly and Kylie Loren.

Kelly Rowland has classic short red hair, and although her complexion is dark, it is not dark, but like healthy wheat, she looks fresh and lively.

Nelly, on the other hand, wore a white oversized T-shirt, a baseball cap, and a silver necklace around her neck.

The two of them are talking and laughing, and behind them are the agent and their good friends, and they will make cameos throughout the music video, and even Kylie's real mother is among them.

It's also a budget-saving method, and there aren't a few shots anyway.

After they came to the crew, they got into the makeup car, and Jose and Donde also came to the car with a new storyboard to communicate with the two people.

"Hey!" Jose was the first to say hello, and then handed the storyboard to the two: "This is a new version of the MV storyboard, which is more creative than the previous one, you can take a look." ”

Kelly nodded and smiled, "Let me see, oh, it seems that a lot of new shots have been added." ”

"That's right."

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

"Okay, let Tang De tell you about it, he is the assistant director and photographer, and this is also his idea." Jose pushed Donde to the front, and he said with a smile: "I know that everyone may think that the MV is a very simple thing, Nelly, how long did you shoot the previous MV?" ”

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

Tang De raised his eyebrows: "The shooting time of our this one will be three times as long." ”

"What?" Nelly tightened her eyebrows: "Why is it so long, I have other trips." ”

Kelly was also curious: "Is there any difficult picture?" ”

"Of course!" Seeing that they were interested, Tang De said confidently: "This is not an ordinary MV, and I never shoot a simple MV, so let me tell you a picture ......"

"Nelly, you and Kelly, standing on the dark street, flanked by streetlights and flared vehicles behind you. The sky-high fire and the empty streets are like a portrayal of the hearts of the two of you, dry wood and fire, but only lonely souls soothing each other. ”

This is actually the picture of her and Jay-Z in BeyoncΓ©'s MV, and I don't know how many fans were fascinated by this MV when it was released.

After describing the scene, Don De asked, "Do you think that's cool?" ”

"Cool!" Kelly was the first to open her eyes and look at Nelly, "It's a good fit for our song." ”

Nelly shook her head too: "yes, yes, the burning car, wow, it sounds handsome." ”

"And we plan to continue this style of the whole song, not simply to shoot an acquaintance and a duet, but to express the real emotions in the song, so that fans will watch it tirelessly over and over again. At that time, the video store will also continue to loop your music videos, do you think this will be good for sales? ”

"Absolutely! I can't wait just to hear it! Kelly excitedly held out her hand.

Nelly nodded in agreement: "Just shoot this guy!" ”
