Ralph Mazio's hands were full of blood, and the doctor came to quickly stop the bleeding.

"Hush..." The spectators in the seats who were watching the real game, as well as the extras who had been invited, let out loud boos together.

They were very dissatisfied with the Dutchman played by Chad McQueen, which was tantamount to deliberately letting the protagonist Daniel bleed.

"It seems to be very immersive?" Ronald was refreshed and unexpectedly discovered that the audience had great sympathy for the character of Daniel.

This is great news. If it can impress live audiences, it will surely also impress moviegoers.

Ralph Mazio was processed and returned to the field. He sent away "Dutch" played by Chad McQueen with a kick to the head.

Another wave of cheers came from the audience.

"Cut!" The sound engineer gave Ronald a thumbs up. Such cooperative audiences are not common in movie shootings.

In the end, Daniel, Dario Vidal, defending champion Johnny Lawrence, and Bobby, who also belongs to the Cobra Gym, entered the semi-finals.

"Ah... right there" Daniel frowned.

Miyagi picked up the plaster and put it on Daniel's ribs. When he was playing against the "Dutchman" just now, he was hit continuously here and needed to be fixed with an adhesive plaster.

"I didn't expect to reach the semi-finals." Daniel tried moving his arms, and his ribs felt less painful.

"I didn't expect it either." Master Miyagi said honestly.

"It would be great if I could win the championship in the end."

"It'll be great if you can survive." Miyagi began to relieve Daniel's pressure.

The first thing to be played is the match between Johnny Lawrence and Vidal. Ronald specially asked Vidal to appear on the court under his real name. If this movie becomes popular, he will also be recognized by others, which can also be considered as helping his friends to achieve success.

The desire to open a martial arts gym.

The match was moved to the center ring and Pat Johnson announced the start of the match.

Vidal did some cool tornado kicks, but Johnny easily dodged them.

The audience began to applaud Vidal again. On the one hand, his movements were graceful and elegant, making the audience feel that his movements were more beautiful than those of William Zebka, who played Johnny.

On the other hand, Johnny, who also belongs to the Cobra Gym, was also disliked by the audience. Most of the audience did not know who was the good guy and who was the bad guy in this scene, but William Zebka's very arrogant posture,

The audience inherently dislikes him.

Vidal failed to score after several tornado kicks. After he retreated, he used a beautiful flying kick, but Johnny saw the flaw in this move and counterattacked with a kick.

Vidal used old tricks and could not avoid the counterattack. He was kicked in the face by Johnny and fell to the ground, losing the qualification to advance to the finals.

"Hush..." Now the audience thought that Johnny was cheating, attacking sneakily, and showing no moral integrity, and the boos in the audience became even louder.

The two actors were still very friendly. In fact, with Vidal's ability, it was impossible for Zebka to touch him. It was him who took the initiative to let go of his defense and touch the opponent's feet with his face.

"Score, Johnny Lawrence, wins." The referee announced that Johnny had entered the final.

"Shh..." There was another loud boo, "It's not fair, Vidal should win."

"Oh, that's not it. My son is a good man. He is making a movie. He is a good boy in life and will never cheat like this."

The mother of William Zebka, who played Johnny, also came to the scene and watched her son's performance from the stands. She was yelled at by the surrounding audience, which made her feel very uncomfortable, and she quickly stood up to explain to those around her.

"cut!"

Ronald stopped filming, and he was not in a hurry to explain. Most of the audience would still think that this was a movie, but the audience's natural emotions made him overjoyed.

The camera focused on the side of the Cobra Dojo. The owner of the gym, Chris, looked at Master Miyagi and his disciple Daniel grimly.

"The next match will be between Daniel LaRusso from Miyagi Dojo and Bobby from Cobra Dojo."

Pat Johnson, who plays the referee, has a mustache, and his arms exposed under his T-shirt are full of hair. Such a referee gives people a sense of trust at first glance, because all the players can't beat him.

"Let's see who will enter the finals and challenge the previous champion Johnny Lawrence." the host shouted.

The audience began to cheer for Daniel. This made Chris, the owner of the Cobra Dojo, very dissatisfied. He ordered Bobby, who was about to appear, "I want him not to compete."

"But Master, I can defeat him." Ron Thomas, who plays Bobby, is also a member of the Star II Gang. He looked dissatisfied and complained directly to Master Chris, just like his true character.

"I don't want you to defeat him, I want him to be unable to compete." Chris said the order with a gloomy face, word by word.

He couldn't stand a short clown like Miyagi. His trained disciples defeated his own disciples. What if Daniel defeated Johnny in the finals...

"But if I do this, I will be disqualified." Bobby replied. He understood that Chris's implication was to make a heavy move to injure Daniel and give up the finals.

"Take him out of the competition," Chris emphasized, staring at the other person closely.

"Okay", Bobby was frightened. He felt that if he didn't do it, Chris would break his legs in turn.

"Get ready, start!" the referee gave the order, and both sides assumed preparation postures.

Bobby waited for a few seconds, and at the urging of Chris's gaze, he suddenly stepped forward, jumped into the air, and then kicked Daniel in the thigh with a scissor kick.

This move surprised everyone. The championship is not a life-or-death duel, and you cannot score points if you hit the position below the waist, so the contestants will not allocate their energy to defend moves that attack the lower plate.

Daniel responded to the end and began to moan in pain.

Master Miyagi, Ali, and Lucille who came to watch their son compete, all ran quickly onto the ring.

"Ah, my legs hurt so much, Master Miyagi." Daniel rolled on the ground holding his legs in pain.

"Don't be afraid, Daniel-san, the master is here." Miyagi held Daniel's head and let him lean against him gently. The two fake fathers and fake sons had a real father-son relationship at this moment.

"Bobby from Cobra Dojo was disqualified from the competition because he deliberately hit Daniel from Miyagi Dojo. According to Rule 41, Paragraph 2 of the Competition Rules, Daniel LaRusso had fifteen minutes to decide whether to continue.

Participate in the final. If he cannot participate, then the other finalist Johnny Lawrence will automatically defend the title."

This despicable and shameless off-the-table move not only drew boos from the audience once again, but also made several of Chris's disciples, Johnny, Tommy, and others, begin to look at him with distrust.

For the first time, they began to doubt whether the philosophy of winning by any means necessary that Chris taught them was correct.

Several referees came over and sent Daniel to the bed in the locker room. The doctor examined Daniel's injured area and gently rolled down his trouser legs. "I will tell the referee that you did very well today."

Daniel's injury was so severe that he could barely stand. He lay on the bed in the locker room, covering his crying eyes with one arm.

At first, he just wanted to avoid being beaten, so he participated in the championship. But after learning karate with Master Miyagi for more than four months, he defeated all his opponents along the way and reached the final... When the championship was within reach, he couldn't help but

willingly.

Mother Lucille cut Daniel's hair and said, "Honey, don't think about it all the time. You did a great job today. I've never been so proud of you."

"If they hadn't cheated, you would have won and entered the finals." Ali stood beside him and also defended Daniel.

"I want to be quiet." Daniel said while crying.

"We'll wait for you outside." Mother Lucille and Ali walked out.

"Master Miyagi," Daniel called the master when Miyagi walked past him.

"Do you think I have a chance of winning the final?"

"Win or lose, it doesn't matter." Miyagi said. Daniel's original intention has been achieved, and the boys from the Cobra Gym will not provoke him in the future.

"That's not what I wanted to ask." Daniel looked at Miyagi.

"Hey! There is a good chance that you will win the final." Miyagi watched every step of Daniel's promotion. His style of play is unique. Johnny will not adapt to it for the first time. Daniel is likely to succeed.

Win the championship.

"Can you heal me like you did last time?" Daniel begged. Last time he was injured in the wall-painting style and could hardly move his arm. Master Miyagi restored his mobility with a few acupoints.

"There's no need to fight, you've already proven yourself."

"What have I proved? Every time they see me, they think they have defeated me. I will never have a chance to reconcile with them, and I will never be able to raise my head in front of Ali." Daniel sighed, "Me too.

It’s impossible to reconcile with yourself.”

Miyagi did not expect Daniel to say such words. Among young people in America, competition is extremely fierce. The winner takes all. The loser has nothing, not even the last bit of self-esteem.

"Hey! Close your eyes." Miyagi asked Daniel to close his eyes.

Miyagi rubbed his hands to warm them, and then tapped acupuncture points on Daniel's thigh.

"Ah..." Daniel screamed in pain.

"cut!"

Ralph Mazzio's manager rushed up to him, handed him a dry towel, and asked him to wipe off the sweat from the makeup artist's face.

"It's the last big scene, huh?" Weintraub came over. The filming, which lasted for one and a half months, was about to end. At this moment, it really felt a bit dreamy.

"There are two more games left, one in the finals and one in the parking lot."

Ronald attached great importance to the first time he directed a medium-sized Hollywood film, and added a false ending to the end of the film.

This is what he learned from the master screenwriter Billy Wilder. Wilder often likes to arrange a false ending at the end. After the audience's emotions reach a climax, he will then set up a true ending to give the audience's emotional finality.

Have an aftertaste.

After Daniel won the finals and won the championship, Johnny and his classmates couldn't stand Chris's despicable methods anymore and had a falling out with him in the parking lot.

Chris came over to beat Johnny, and Miyagi went over to accuse him of not abiding by the master's principles and not being able to beat students.

Chris provoked Miyagi in turn, and Miyagi knocked him to the ground in two blows. All the students at the Cobra Dojo looked at Chris and walked away one by one.

Ronald's intention was that this victory was not only a victory for Daniel, nor a victory for Master Miyagi in training his disciples, but also included a comparison of two martial arts philosophies. In the end, Miyagi martial arts won a complete victory for the philosophy of self-defense.

Shooting continues.
