Chapter 141 I owe you once(2/2)
"I can't help it, but I know someone who can. As you know, I shot a Saab commercial, in which I hired a director of photography, David Watkin, who had a patented invention that could use a light bulb.
The lamp illuminates the night scene. He told me that he can do things with one lamp that others cannot do with more than a dozen lamps."
"The same Watkin who invented the Wendy lamp?" George Lucas had heard of his name.
"Yes, he usually lives in London, maybe..."
"I'll find a way to find him." Lucas took over everything.
After the weekend, Walter Mersey took up his post as director. David Watkin served as the newcomer's director of photography. He pulled Mersey and said, "I won't accompany you here to shoot. I will use a light cloth."
With good light, you can move the camera however you want. Anyway, these mirrors will send the light to where you need it.
Then I will go to the nearby studio to set up the lighting and wait for you to come over. If you have an emergency that my assistant cannot solve, just call me over there. I usually take a nap in the corner..."
"Our first shot today, the main shot, all departments are ready!"
Seeing that Walter Mersey had regained his energy and confidence, Ronald and George Lucas turned and left.
"I also want to thank you, Mr. Lucas." Ronald and Brooke packed their bags and went to Heathrow Airport with Lucas.
Niceta from CAA called Ronald last night. Someone saw him and Brooke playing together and was selling this gossip clue in the British tabloids. Fortunately, CAA's colleagues in London knew this and took the initiative to warn
Ronald.
Brooke didn't want the news media to report that the two were together without her mother Terry knowing about it while she was in college, so she proposed to return to New York first.
Ronald was a little uncomfortable seeing that Pooji didn't want their relationship to be exposed. But if Pooji went back alone, he might not be able to calm down the gossip media discussion. So he insisted on calling his agent to discuss public relations strategies.
.
Brooke felt that Ronald was unnecessary. She and her mother had always had no problem handling media relations. They could gain exposure without really being involved in any scandals.
Ronald still insisted on seeking professional consultation. This time there was a real scandal. And why didn't Brooke find a real agent so that she could plan her future career?
While the two were discussing, George Lucas came to say goodbye.
When he walked in and saw Ronald and Brooke Shields together, he immediately understood the relationship between Ronald and Brooke Shields, and even teased Ronald about his sexual fortune.
Just as Lucas' vacation in Japan was over, he offered to let the two of them fly back to New York with him to avoid media speculation.
If someone was interviewing someone at the airport, it could be said that Ronald and Lucas were discussing the new film and invited Brooke Shields in London to discuss the possibility of her participating.
Ronald thought this was the best way to deal with it. Both Brooke and her mother liked a certain degree of exposure. After a phone call with Niceta from CAA, they also prepared some operations to satisfy both Brooke and Ronald.
.
"Thank you, Mr. Lucas." Ronald thanked Lucas again for the arrangement at the boarding gate.
"It's okay. You called me this time and helped Walter. I'm very grateful. He is a rare close friend of mine. If it weren't for you, I might have lost him. I owe you once. What will happen in the future?
, you can call me at Skywalker Ranch." Lucas handed Ronald a business card with a personal phone number printed on it.
The three of them passed through the special boarding gate and arrived in front of a beautiful aircraft. It was a British Airways Concorde. The huge nose drooped like a raptor's beak foraging for food. The graceful delta wing was at the back.
, full of powerful beauty.
The Concorde can travel across the Atlantic at twice the speed of sound, taking less than three hours one way between London and New York.
After getting on the plane, Lucas's seat was in the front cabin. Ronald and Brooke made a temporary reservation and only bought the back cabin. They found the seats in the back cabin and found that the distance between the seats was larger than that in the economy class of ordinary passenger planes.
Still narrow.
The tall two people sat down and couldn't straighten their legs.
However, the passengers next to him were all wearing decent handmade suits or custom-made dresses. After a while, the plane moved to the take-off runway. The roar of the huge engine made Ronald feel a little uncomfortable. Although the speed was fast, and the passengers were either rich or noble.
, but the ride experience is average.
"This is my first time riding the Concorde!" Brooke said next to him.
"What did you say?" Ronald couldn't hear it.
"I said it was my first time..."
"boom……"
