Chapter 97: Red Alert Movie Version

  A lie told often enough becomes the truth.

  Catherine also deeply believed that as long as they were deceived... oh, as long as the pie was waved in front of those officials a few more times, they would agree. Otherwise, there wouldn't be so many businessmen lining up to deceive them.

  Of course, there are companies with the power to deceive the Pentagon, and they are also very powerful. For example, Lockheed Martin Corporation, the US government gave them more than $60 billion just for a drone. But if it were an ordinary company, even if they said they had a zero-cost drone, I'm afraid the Pentagon would ignore it.

  Catherine's company didn't have that capability, but she was fortunate enough to enter their line of sight, so Bibi Xiaozi was born.

  She wasn't afraid of their hesitation or refusal; as long as Catherine could explain the benefits of this computer within her own sphere of influence, that was enough.

  For example, Command & Conquer: Red Alert.

  Maybe movies aren't the most profitable industry, but they're enough to influence public opinion. What's more attractive than an art form like movies?

  On the set in Florida, the crew is busy as can be.

  "That 'Wasteland', what a visual feast, I can hardly imagine that at the time, Miss Edson, you were only 15 years old." George Lucas was talking to Catherine at this moment.

  Catherine is now wearing a costume, that full-body spandex suit, which is made of latex but absolutely uncomfortable, and to accentuate Catherine's facial features, the latex has been pushed deep into her mouth, encasing her tongue.

  "Is that so? Thank you very much."

  "No, thank you is me." This is sincere, because Westerners rarely speak like this.

  "The Dream Factory brought me here to observe and even gave me so much funding, I think there's nothing better than this..."

  Catherine's part is in the first scene.

  The production cycle of this play is very long, and if you want to catch up with the Christmas season, you must race against time.

  Wearing a blue full-body tight-fitting suit is for the convenience of production. The projection of "Elizabeth" in the film is this blue color.

  In fact, this costume is actually double-layered. The inner layer is for "lining", which completely hides Catherine's hair and body parts, making it a vacuum inside. And the outer one outlines the simulated physique of "Elizabeth". The hair on Catherine's head now should be a wig, and also blue in color.

  Although the play time is only over ten minutes, these more than ten minutes were shot for a whole day before they were all settled. Then, this part of the film was immediately sent to the special effects department for processing.

  George Lucas was also quite interested in this part, so Catherine simply let the other party follow along as well. However, first there was a confidentiality contract.

  This production technique is Catherine's killer for the next decade or so... In the future... With computer special effects, who needs this?

  And at that time Catherine might have stopped making movies too.

  But anyway, for now, this technology is only available to Catherine, and keeping it would be better than putting it outside at least.

  And this is just a special effect technique, and it can't be patented, so that's all.

  And on the set, it's Stallone and his team's turn to "charge into battle" and "bravely charge into enemy camp".

  Aida's performance was decent and it seemed like she had put in effort.

  However, Karasanto's demands were very strict - also Catherine's demands - so filming was not smooth.

  And Stallone, who would become a major star in the future, was also sometimes not in top form during filming, which were all factors that slowed down shooting.

  However, their acting skills have been constantly improving, and in the film, they are becoming more and more mature. Catherine believes that after this film, Stallone will also be able to hold his own.

  In this film, the most comfortable one should be Bruce Lee.

  Catherine designed many special forces tactics for Stallone and Ada. Especially Stallone, who is a textbook of special forces combat methods. As for Ada's tactics, it was more about "selling flesh", that is, showing off her sexy figure.

  But Lee Small Dragon is different. Catherine in the film for Lee Small Dragon design, are retreat no can retreat drama, and Lee Small Dragon must use their own fist kill out a blood road.

  For example, in the climax of the film, Catherine sends Lee to close down a special weapon via a small path, which he must force his way through.

  Although he is the second male lead, Lee's performance in the film is quite perfect.

  It's a pity that Bruce Lee's nunchaku skills are still immature, I believe in his future performances, he will be even more mature... Hey, in The Green Hornet, Bruce Lee's weapon is the nunchaku!

  This highlight, Catherine didn't want to wipe away.

  In the film, apart from these, there are all sorts of futuristic distant view technologies.

  For example, thermal imaging goggles.

  And also, the red alert version of that beeping kid.

  There is also a conceptual communication device - mobile phone which will be born until 1973.

  These are all important manifestations of Catherine's excellence.

  To be exact, the meaning of Red Alert is quite different from the original game.

  In this story, the background of the story has already become a continuation of the Cold War history. Although there is no specific country in Catherine's script, only a vague Solar Empire and some Eastern countries, the two major camps have been revealed without a doubt.

  In fact, Catherine originally wanted to call that sun empire the Rising Sun Empire, but that seemed to have a hint of suspicion of being an American solid ally, so Catherine had no choice but to change it. Try not to associate with a country where the sun rises.

  After all, the Tokyo Olympics are about to start, everything should be "harmonious".

  And also, although it may seem unlikely, Catherine is also eyeing the market of the world's second-largest economy.

  But Catherine's mind is now focused on her own filming process.

  What Catherine least expected was that Bruce Lee's stuntmen were not up to par during filming.

  Bruce Lee's kick was very characteristic, kicking people out, although they would retreat for a surprising tens of meters, but the person often didn't have anything wrong with them. However, those standing in place - that must be a rib fracture without a doubt.

  But compared to the thriving Hong Kong action films, Hollywood's "martial arts actors", especially those who specialize in this area, are somewhat tragic. They often can't fully unload Lee's power, so Catherine had to put a piece of board under each actor's clothes, which finally solved the problem, but these boards were all broken by the end...
