Exploiting Hollywood 1980

"On the ship, you can move freely in the areas we have designated. However, in some areas that are confidential, Sergeant James must be notified and he will coordinate with us." The captain of the Enterprise planned an action for the crew The area, mainly the deck area, and a conference room were transformed into a flight control center.

"Regarding the take-off and landing footage of the aircraft, you must submit a report in advance and our flight squadron will make unified arrangements." The navigation part of the aircraft carrier is under the control of the captain, while the flying part is under the control of the carrier-based air wing commander. The crew also had to deal with two command centers.

"If you have no other questions, let us wish you a smooth shoot."

Everyone raised their glasses, and then the senior officer left. They also have naval patrol missions.

"So, are we giving them extra money? Their aircraft carriers and carrier-based aircraft were originally going to perform missions, and we still have to pay so much money." Ronald quietly asked the producer Brooke Hay next to him silent.

"Looking on the bright side, it's very rare that the Navy is willing to let us pay."

After dinner, Ronald returned to his assigned bunk. At six-foot-two, he was a bit cramped in bed. The temperature in the cabin was relatively high and everyone was sweating a little.

These bunks, where only non-commissioned officers can sleep, were allocated by the navy. The conditions for soldiers' bunks are even worse.

There are 6,000 people on the entire aircraft carrier busy to operate this huge combat machine. In addition to those on the ship, there is another rotation of 6,000 people on leave at the San Diego Naval Base, which rotates every six months.

Ronald reserved several quieter cabins for the actors, who most needed to stay in good condition. He, Bruckheimer, and director of photography Kimball squeezed into a small place, and there was the buzzing sound of some unknown machine next to them.

In addition to the noise, the temperature is also relatively high. Ronald woke up at five o'clock the next morning and simply went out to watch the sunrise over the sea.

"It's so beautiful!" Ronald looked at the sun rising over the blue sky and blue sea. He took out his camera and took a few pictures. He wanted to wake up all the actors who were still suffering from jet lag and start filming now.

On the Enterprise, the Navy gave five days of shooting time. Ronald did not want to waste every sunrise and sunset moment.

"Sir, you can only take pictures in the direction of the sea, not the bridge and the antenna." Sergeant James, who served as the liaison officer, faithfully stopped Ronald's idea of ​​using the bridge in the composition.

"Then I use this director's viewfinder, the one without film,

Let’s see where it’s convenient to take the picture. Come with me and remind me of any sensitive areas. "

"I'm happy to." Sergeant James accompanied Ronald and walked on the deck, pointing out some sensitive places to Ronald. At the same time, I told him which places were not allowed to be photographed, where only distant views could be shot, and which areas needed to be blurred. He told Ronald carefully.

The two returned to the officers' mess and bumped into Tom Cruise and director of photography Kimball.

"The conference room used as the flight control center was very small, and the actors were probably sweating profusely." Kimball came over to report.

"It doesn't matter, sweating is more manly." Ronald took orange juice and bread. The conditions of the officer's mess were better.

"How's it going? Do you like it here?" Ronald asked Cruise at the dining table.

"Very good, I'm very excited." Tom Cruise was burdened with the pressure of being worth a million dollars. When he got to the aircraft carrier, he relaxed a lot.

"What happened?" Ronald asked Bruckheimer next to him.

"The pilots here only ask for Tom's autograph." Bruckheimer said with a smile.

Naval officers and soldiers, especially naval aviation personnel, are a very proud group of people. They rarely chase stars. Among the male protagonists, they only asked Cruise, who had played the role in "Also Crazy", for an autograph. Kilmer and others turned a blind eye, which allowed Cruise to regain his strong self-confidence.

"!"

In the small cabin, the lights took up a large space. On the conference table fixed on the ground, a bald actor playing the role of a flight captain was facing the camera and smoking a big cigar.

With his back to the camera is the actor playing the Jaguar pilot.

The captain of the flight wing was lecturing him. The Jaguar suffered a mental disorder due to being locked by the MiG-28 missile in the air battle. In the end, it was unable to land on the aircraft carrier deck in the night sky environment after the sun had set. When the Lone Ranger landed on his own, he learned that the Jaguar did not dare to land at night, so he launched a go-around and accompanied the Jaguar to finally land safely.

Jaguar was still knocked down by the pressure. He thought of his wife and the children he had never met, and insisted on retiring.

Standing outside are Tom Cruise and Anthony Edwards, who plays Goose. He couldn't squeeze into the small room, so he watched the filming from outside.

"You're in a relationship with that cutie?" Cruise asked Edwards.

"Yeah, Meg and I hit it off." Edwards and Meg Ryan, who plays his wife, got together on the Miramar base set.

Her character is also a catalyst for the plot. She told Charlie in the bar that the Lone Ranger fell in love with her at first sight, which caused the Lone Ranger and Charlie to fall in love with each other.

Later, when Goose died unfortunately, he also came to the base and handed Goose's dog tag to the Lone Ranger, allowing him to carry on Goose's legacy and continue moving forward.

Meg Ryan is also a college student and has been filming commercials to pay for her tuition. Her understanding is better than that of ordinary actors. Anthony Edwards took the lead and the two became a couple.

"What about you? Have you succeeded in McGillis?"

"It's okay, I kissed her in the movie, but her heart seemed to be with someone else." Tom Cruise pursed his lips.

"cut!"

"Oh..." Everyone breathed a sigh of relief and quickly walked out to find ice Coke to cool down. Everyone's shirts were soaked with sweat. Their faces and foreheads were heated by the direct sunlight from the high-power lights, and sweat kept flowing down.

Only Ronald was very satisfied.

He could imagine that in the cinema, when the female audience saw the sweat on the faces of these handsome guys on the screen and the soaked shirts on their bodies, they could not help but sit up straight, as if they could smell the stench of their sweat.

In the afternoon, a new group of actors came to film.

"!"

The scene this time was the big air battle at the end of the movie. Iceman, played by Val Kilmer, proposed to the wing leader that he did not want the Lone Ranger to be their backup aircraft in the battle. The Lone Ranger ignored the wingmen and only focused on his own limelight style, which made him unable to You can't trust the other person. This line made him very satisfied. The roles of the two in the movie were similar to those in reality. They both hated each other.

"I know what you are thinking, but don't discuss this matter and execute the order." The bald actor assumed the posture of a flight captain and asked him to get on the plane and set off.

"cut!"

At dusk, the crew obtained the consent of the flight wing and filmed on the deck the scene of the two crews of "Iceman" and "Hollywood" boarding the plane and setting off for the battle.

The wing helped by painting the outer cockpit with black paint and spray-painting the names and call signs of the pilot and radar officer.

Several crew members on the deck began to pretend to help the actors board the plane. Under the light of the setting sun, Val Kilmer raised his thumb to salute the officers and soldiers, and then converted into a powerful salute.

"cut!"

Tom Cruise went up again, and the Lone Ranger was used as a backup this time and did not dispatch at the beginning. He flipped the Sidewinder missile mounted under the plane. It was a real thing.

Then he climbed up the boarding ladder and sat in the cockpit. He calmed down and put on his helmet. be prepared.

"cut!"

The first day's shots were done very well.

"When can we shoot the real footage of fighter jets taking off and landing?" Ronald came to the real flight commander, who also came to watch the crew's filming.

"I heard, you want the dusk light. We have missions these days. As long as the weather is suitable, I will arrange to take off and land at the right time."

"Thank you!" Ronald thanked him, then announced that the filming was over, dismissed the crew, and everyone could walk around in the designated area.

All the actors began to walk to the restaurant, but Val Kilmer watched more scenes of Cruise than him, and his dissatisfaction grew day by day.

However, the number of people allowed to shoot on the aircraft carrier was limited, and his manager did not come with him, making it impossible to discuss countermeasures.

“Let’s go,” he waved, sharing a cabin with Rick Rossovich, who plays Iceman’s radar officer.

"Our place is pretty good. It's quiet and no noise. It's better than the director's bunk." Val Kilmer sounded satisfied with his treatment, but he didn't know what it was like over there with Tom Cruise.

"Oh, shxt!" Rick Rosovich turned on the light in the room. He slept in a hurry last night and didn't look at the wall by himself. Today he actually found a big radiation symbol on the wall with a line below it. Character.

"What are you shouting for?" Val Kilmer was disturbed by Rosovich's fuss and was a little dissatisfied.

"Dong dong..." Rick Rosovich knocked on the metal wall, "There should be a nuclear reactor behind here. No wonder there is no noise here. I didn't see this symbol yesterday."

"Are you sure?" Fang Kilmer jumped up.

"Yes, there are small words below, core..."

Rosovich jumped back suddenly. Is this "nuclear" the same as a nuclear bomb?

"Damn it, why are they so kind? Let's leave quickly."

The two put on their clothes and quickly left the bunk. Along the passage below the aircraft carrier's deck, the two walked through many doors and arrived at the front of the aircraft carrier. The soldiers at the gate along the way saw them wearing pilot uniforms and saluted them.

"This room is good, why don't we sleep here." The two found a larger bunk. Looking at the military uniforms hanging on the back of the door, it was an officer's dormitory.

"Hey, it's still comfortable here." The two actors fell asleep quickly.

Early the next morning, Ronald got up at five o'clock. After doing dozens of push-ups, he was about to go out for dinner.

Sergeant James came over and saluted him, "Captain, please come over and discuss something."

"What happened?" Ronald asked, seeing James' unkind expression.

"Two of you actors arrived in a confidential area and slept on the bed in the carrier fighter squadron leader's dormitory."

"Forehead……"

"I'm going to call the producer. You go to the deck and wait for us."

Ronald joined Bruckheimer, and several people walked along the deck to the bridge. Sergeant James led them up the stairs to the captain's office on Cambridge.

In the captain's room were the captain and his assistant on one side, and the squadron leader on the other. Two actors sat on the bench opposite in the middle. One is Val Kilmer, and the other is Rosovich, who plays his partner.

Fang Jimo chewed gum nonchalantly, with a displeased look on his face. Rosovich lowered his head, and his arm seemed to have been twisted, which was a bit inconvenient.

"Director Li, you have to take care of your people and don't sleep in the officer's lounge casually. When we went back this morning, we almost thought we had a spy." The squadron leader of the fighter squadron nodded to Ronald, then raised his head The military cap brushed his hair.

"Mr. Bruckheimer, the Enterprise America is the most powerful and one of the most secretive surface ships. I agree to allow the crew to board the ship for filming. This is the Navy's order. However, if you continue to violate the order like this, you will not be allowed to appear at will." Wherever you appear, I can only ask you to go down."

The captain was displeased that the two actors actually passed through such a long crew passage and reached the pilot area without being discovered. He was going to punish those sailors who were not discovered today.

"Um...can you let the two actors freshen up and have something to eat first?" Ronald scratched his head and asked.

The captain waved his hand and the two actors were led out.

Ronald glanced at Bruckheimer and saw that the other person asked him to explain first, so he only said, "Mr. Captain, Mr. Squadron Leader, first of all, I apologize to you. This kind of thing should not happen.

However, the crew is not a disciplined force. What I say is actually not as effective as what a captain in the Navy says to his subordinates.

Val Kilmer is a big star, it's normal for him not to listen to me, and I don't have the power to fire him. However, I will stress to their agent that they must abide by Navy discipline and ensure that this kind of thing does not happen again. "

"you promise?"

"I can't guarantee the two of them, but for the others, I can emphasize discipline again. I also hope that you can give us enough patience and not punish the entire crew for this."

"Well," the captain glanced at Ronald with an unkind expression, "If another actor violates the rules like this again, I will let them leave."

"All right". Ronald also walked out of the bridge and asked Sergeant James, "Can I make a phone call to the mainland from here?"

"Only telegrams."

"Um..." Ronald and Bruckheimer looked at each other. Unable to contact Fang Kilmer's agent, it seemed that they could only talk to Fang Kilmer.

"When we shoot on an aircraft carrier, we must abide by their discipline. Do not change cabins privately. If you are not satisfied, you can tell me and I will negotiate with the captain." Ronald advised the two actors to restrain themselves.

"It's nuclear, it's fucking scary." Rick Rosovich is uneducated.

"America is a free country. We were just looking for a safe place to sleep. Rick was sprained by them." Fang Kilmer still looked disdainful and said while chewing gum.

"If you are not satisfied with your sleeping place, we can help you change it. There are still four days on the ship. I hope we can complete the filming successfully. I also hope you can abide by some of the disciplines on the aircraft carrier."

"Hmph... Cruise's treatment must be better than ours." After Ronald left, Val Kilmer was very dissatisfied. The officers and soldiers on the ship only came to sign autographs from Tom Cruise, but for myself, a star who has also starred in movies, no one came to sign.
