Exploiting Hollywood 1980

Ronald hugged Diane sweetly. When he and Diane were together, he felt very relaxed. The two just hugged each other and fell asleep deeply.

"Buzz..." Two Tomcats flew through the sky, and Ronald clearly felt that he was dreaming again.

An F-5s painted black with a clear five-pointed star on the wing appeared in the dream, and then with a buzz, another F-5s, also fake MiG-28, came in from an angle outside the camera. , the two machines are side by side, giving people a silent sense of oppression.

The pilots of the enemy planes all wore oxygen masks and never showed their faces, giving people a powerful feeling.

"They have four, four...no, five." Iceman and Slider shouted on the F-14, and soon their wingmen Hollywood and Wolfman were shot down by missiles launched by MiGs.

"Let the Lone Ranger take off and go to the rescue."

This is the final air combat scene, the original director edited it really excitingly.

"Hmm..."

Diane was grabbed by Ronald's nervous hands and woke up. Seeing that Ronald was so precious to her, she happily kissed him on the face again.

"Huh? It's daybreak?" Ronald felt that he had the best night's sleep last night, but it was a pity that he didn't finish watching the air combat footage.

But it doesn't matter. Peter Pettigrew came up with several good maneuvers. By combining dreams and his ideas, he should be able to achieve similar effects.

He left Diane in the hotel to prepare for the audition while he went to the Navy base.

Looking at the actor who plays the Lone Ranger's temporary radar officer, Tim Robbins, who is nearly two meters tall, no matter how he adjusts his body, the canopy cannot be closed.

Ronald sweated and said, "If that doesn't work, just shoot all his shots on the ground."

Fortunately, Cameron was asked to build a ground-level cockpit in advance. There were often problems with aerial filming. Robbins was too tall to fit in. But Barry Tubb was so frightened that he turned pale and couldn't use any of the shots. Not to mention someone like Val Kilmer who doesn't even dare to get on a plane.

"Never do airplane scenes again," Ronald scolded.

Large machinery is very difficult to maintain and problems often occur. It can be regarded as the second most difficult means of transportation in movies after trains.

Cameron's model was approved by the producer,

The actual filming equipment is being debugged. A huge circular track was erected in a huge studio, with a front-end projection device placed next to it.

The one-to-one simulated F-14A cockpit was placed on a circular track. With a gentle push by hand, it swayed from side to side like a cradle on the track.

"Very good, both sides can be done at the same time. Let Tim Robbins try it out first."

Tim Robbins put on his flight suit, put on his oxygen mask, and got into the special effects cockpit. The cockpit was specially enlarged for him to accommodate his giant body.

"Let's do a test shoot."

"Are you crazy? Lone Ranger, go back and help Iceman!"

Robbins is a small actor, and he delivered the lines of the final dogfight with precision.

"I don't feel right right now, I can't go into the battlefield," Tom Cruise said next to him.

The front-end projector captured images of the blue sky and sea surface captured in the air onto the screen behind the fake cockpit. Another small projector captured the reflection of the cockpit on the F-14A Tomcat, which illuminated the glass of the fake cockpit cover. superior.

"cut!"

"I want to try it too!" Cruise became interested and sat in the fake cockpit to try out the circular track.

"You can say whatever you want, I didn't prepare your play today." Ronald said, this time he wanted to test the effect of Cameron's toy.

"Ronald, you can also take a jet pilot license with me in the future, and we can fly in the sky together."

"Then you have to act well. Jets are very expensive, so I rely on you to help me make money."

"Hahaha, bring me my orange juice."

Cruise took off his oxygen mask and took a sip.

"Tower, tower, please pass." Cruise started talking nonsense again.

"Cut", Ronald saw that the small plate of film was almost finished shooting, so he quickly stopped and sent it to be developed and printed.

…

The fake cockpit on the ground worked well, and Val Kilmer's scenes were ready to be filmed. Ronald handed over this part of the character to the second photography team and asked the director of the second team to direct it. He ran back to the Miramar Air Force Base to personally control the actual shooting part.

This part is still the most realistic and shocking image. I boasted in front of Paramount President Mancuso that I wanted to let the audience see an unprecedented spectacle. It relied on these scattered aerial combat shots. How to edit them into one Reasonable story.

"Good, let's keep this distance. I want a relatively stationary shot of the fighter behind."

Ronald watched the filming from the ground and picked up the radio to give the order.

An F-14A flew towards the base from the sea. In the low-altitude and high-humidity environment, the vortex formed on the wings pulled out two very beautiful white clouds, wrapping the fighter jet.

"This shot is worth a million dollars, well done." Ronald praised the stunt plane with the camera in front of him over the radio.

"Oklahoma..." The consultant next to him, Pettigrew, automatically answered.

"It looks good. People will think it's a sonic cloud that breaks the sound barrier."

Pettigrew shook his head, these Hollywood people want everything to look good.

The real sonic cloud is a cloud and mist produced when an aircraft breaks the speed of sound, accompanied by a very loud explosion.

It's too fast, so it's hard to get good-looking shots in the air. Director Ronald actually used the vortex that the wings would pull up when flying at low speed over the sea in this high-humidity weather. However, in the slow-speed vortex, the clouds and mist condensed by water vapor are really beautiful.

"This is an aerial scissors tactic. Five MiG-28s are chasing the two F-14As in front. The easiest way to catch them is for the predators to do a cross pursuit, just like a pair of big scissors, cutting towards Prey ahead.”

Pete Pettigrew took two model fighter jets and made a cross gesture.

"In this way, there will always be an aircraft that can catch the weak point of the prey in front, and we can lock on and fire."

"Very good, let's just follow this."

"Oklahoma moms and dads are going to love this, especially this cross-cutting scissor of multiple planes. Looking back from the plane in front, it's like... how to describe it, like you see four or five planes all... It's like it's swirling around your ass, it's very spectacular."

"Very good, it seems like you can find a job in Hollywood in the future, Pete."

"God bless me, I hope I don't get scolded to death by my old colleagues."

A special reconnaissance camera gun was installed on the back of an F-14A, and then a movie camera and film box were added after modification.

"It's up to you, remember to fly more smoothly." Pettigrew handed over this mission to the bozo with the best flying skills.

"Remember to do a few rolls, the audience loves to see that."

"Oh!" Pettigrew closed his eyes. What's the request?

The F-14A is a twin-engine heavy fighter. When rolling, the pointing stability of the nose is not as good as that of the single-engine F-5s. It has to roll and be stable at the same time, which is a great test for the pilot's skills.

"No problem, just look at mine."

Bozo knew that his days of flying fighter jets in the navy were numbered. In the future, he would not have the chance to do these fancy jobs if he went to fly passenger planes in civil aviation, or even more boring cargo planes. He agreed immediately.

"Bingo!"

After seeing the film that Bozo brought and the results after printing, Ronald and Pettigrew had nothing to say. Bozo flew so beautifully, rolled very steadily, and coupled with the distortion of the wide-angle lens, four or five " "Enemy plane" was circling behind and chasing the F-14a Tomcat, and a kind of unparalleled heroic temperament rushed towards his face.

"Very good, very good. This is the spectacle that the audience wants to see." Ronald thought proudly that the shot he shot should be even more spectacular than the original version.

"Hey, that's it for today. Contact the Navy to see when the missile can be officially approved for launch."

Ronald was still thinking about the actual shots of the two air-to-air missiles promised by the Navy.

Today, Cameron and Gale will hold a small wedding in the city hall, inviting only a few friends of both parties.

Ronald rushed back to the hotel to attend with Diane.

"Congratulations!" Ronald was both a friend of the man and a friend of the woman. He hugged Cameron and Gale, who was wearing a bridal veil, in turn and gave them gifts.

"This is a delivery coupon for a Honda Accord. Gale needs to run frequently and needs a safer car." Ronald gave Gale a gift.

The couple gave up most of their income in "Terminator" in order to become directors and producers. The cost of the special effects equipment installed for "Top Gun" last time also had to be used to maintain daily expenses, so Ronald provided a cheap and safe Japanese car for their convenience.

"Don't I have a gift?" Cameron came over and hugged Ronald.

"I attended as the representative of the bride, Jim. I also sat on the bride's side at the dinner party. Besides, Gail is the one who manages the money in your family." Ronald joked, the husband is the director and the wife is the director. Producer is the division of labor between two people.

"Congratulations," a man with a German accent and another tall, beautiful girl also came over to congratulate.

"Hello, Mr. Schwarzenegger." Ronald shook hands with him.

"Hello, Ronald. This is Bridget."

"This is Diane."

The two introduced their female companions to each other.

Brigitte Nielsen is a Danish model. She is six feet tall and matches Schwarzenegger, the Austrian bodybuilding champion.

The two of them met while filming "Excalibur" and had a heated relationship.

"Oh, you are really strong, even stronger than what we saw on TV." Diane couldn't help but admired when she saw the giant, "You are much stronger than Stallone."

"Ouch", Schwarzenegger made a muscle-flexing pose.

"Any enemy of Stallone is my friend." Schwarzenegger said bluntly. Now he and Stallone are the biggest competitors.

"Then we have a lot in common." Ronald laughed. He and Stallone also didn't have a good relationship.

"Ladies and gentlemen, by the authority vested in me by the State of California, and in the presence of Mr. Roger Coleman as witness, I declare that James Cameron and Gale Anne Hurd are married. Couple.”

The wedding hosted by government officials was relatively simple, and Cameron and Gale became husband and wife immediately.

Ronald and Diane also picked up fireworks and fired them at them.

"In the end, Gale's parents still didn't come." Ronald couldn't help but sigh, Gale felt that he would be very lonely. This is why Ronald came to the wedding to make it as lively as possible.

"It's time for us to celebrate."

Ronald gave Bud a signal, and he went to call the rented limousine. The couple and guests were going to the restaurant for dinner. "

"Thank you." Gale came over and thanked Ronald specifically. Roger Coleman was like his father, and Ronald was like his brother. This kind of wedding can also make up for some regrets.

"Take it," Ronald saw the opportunity and handed Cameron a delivery coupon for a modified motorcycle. It was the latest Harley motorcycle. The most famous local modification shop was replacing parts that were prone to problems. into more durable Japanese goods.

Nowadays, many Harley enthusiasts have begun to do this. After all, Harleys, which often lie down, are beautiful, but very impractical.

"I said, you won't forget my share."
