Director: The special effects are too expensive, so I had to make real shots
Chapter 215 Look, what is an international superstar!
Chapter 215 Look, what is an international superstar!
"Guan Ju, I'm ready."
On the lawn in Nanshan where Xu Nuo used to test the steel suit, Xu Nuo was fully dressed, with a thin bracelet on his hand.
On this lawn, Xu Nuo could still see the small crater that was made during the experiment to test the shock absorption effect of the armored steel suit.
As if the original scene is still vivid.
At that time, Xu Nuo used a helicopter sent by Colonel Luo Wei to untie the armored iron suit from mid-air and throw it down from the cable to test the shock absorption effect of the armored iron suit.
Nowadays.
Xu Nuo still wants to conduct a test here.
It's just that this time it's not related to the test of shock absorption, because the shock absorption effect of Mojia Steel Battlesuit is already very, very good. If you want to improve the shock absorption and shock absorption, with the current It is basically difficult to upgrade technology and materials on the earth.
Unless Xu Nuo can find energy-absorbing materials like vibration gold.
"Okay sir, the ink armor steel battle suit has been disassembled and packed, and it is ready to be summoned."
Guan Ju's voice came.
"Ok."
Xu Nuo nodded, and then lightly tapped the thin bracelet on his wrist.
drop!
With a "beep" sound, the wristband lights up.
Immediately afterwards, the next second, a metal suitcase in front of Guan Ju on the basement floor of the Smart Villa reacted.
That's right.
This metal suitcase is Xu Nuo's black armored steel suit. This is not the portable wearable steel suit developed during the filming of "Iron Man 2".
Of course, it is indeed based on the technology of the portable steel suit to make the Mojia steel suit into this mode that can be transformed into a metal suitcase.
It's just that this metal suitcase looks much bigger than the portable steel suit.
Xu Nuo's assistant Wen Ruohan can carry the previous portable steel suit because the materials used are of the light type.
But now this is still the original black armor and steel suit, but it is assembled into the form of a metal suitcase, and the black armor and steel suit is made of gold-titanium alloy material, the weight of this thing is not ordinary people It can be picked up.
Boom~
Some rounded square metal boxes suddenly started a propulsion engine behind them, and flew towards the exit passage on the basement floor with a bang.
Obviously, it seemed to be activated by some summon.
The very thin bracelet on Xu Nuo's hand is the starter and recognizer for starting the modified and upgraded intelligent black armor and steel suit.
Originally, Xu Nuo planned to use biometric identification.
It's just that this period of time is really limited, Xu Nuo must not be able to make biometric identification for a while before going to the United States.
So for the time being, use this identification method first.
Boom~
Xu Nuo soon heard the roaring sound from his smart villa.
When I looked up, I saw the black armored steel battlesuit flying towards me. When I got close to myself, it had already started to change from the form of a metal suitcase.
Even though Xu Nuodang opened his hands, he liked the sound of this mechanical change very much.
Drop~
It only took a moment for the armored iron suit to intelligently identify Xu Nuo, and after confirming that it was the "master", it also confirmed the bracelet of Xu Nuo.
It is precisely because of the recognition of this bracelet that the Mojia Steel Battlesuit accurately determines the wearing position.
arm!
back!
thigh!
The heavy metal seems to stick to every part of Xu Nuo's body like flowing clouds and flowing water, and then there is a sound of "click, click, mechanical cover".
boom!
In the end, as the helmet part of the ink-armored steel suit closed, there was a crisp metallic sound, and the eyes lit up!
Xu Nuo successfully put on the black-armored iron battle suit upgraded through intelligent transformation.
But now it's the last step.
Xu Nuo first raised his left foot, then his right foot, and took a step forward, accompanied by the sound of mechanical metal covering from the sole of his feet.
It was also the step of raising his feet and walking forward that the soles of the black armored steel battlesuit had officially completed all coverage.
In the movie "The Avengers", when Tony Stark was wearing the Mark 7, he was falling, that is, in the mid-air state, quickly made intelligent identification and then put on the steel suit.
So you can directly overwrite and start it all at once.
However, Xu Nuo's test today is definitely impossible to try in mid-air like Tony Stark. If he takes off the game, wouldn't it be cool?
So Xu Nuo conducted a wearing test on the ground.
However, if the wearing test is carried out on the ground, it will be difficult to cover the soles of the feet at the first time, unless you jump up when wearing it.
Of course, this seems a bit ridiculous. It's better to lift your feet and take a step forward after you're almost dressed. This will give the Mojia steel suit a chance to fully cover it.
"Sir, how does it look like wearing it?"
Guan Ju's questioning voice came: "My side shows that the dressing is smooth and normal."
"Yes."
Xu Nuo said happily: "Guan Ju, we have succeeded."
"Congratulations sir!"
Guan Ju sent congratulations.
"It's a pity that we don't have much time for now, otherwise we can try to get the technology of the separate steel suit."
Xu Nuo couldn't help but sigh with emotion.
This time, Xu Nuo's immersive work took half a month and used a lot of top-level chips to intelligently upgrade this set of black armor and steel suits.
Now the ink armor steel suit can be "summoned" remotely and can be worn intelligently and portablely.
But it is a pity that it is still impossible to separate the human from armor at any time like in "Iron Man 3". To achieve such a function is not too difficult for Xu Nuo who has accumulated a lot of entertainment points.
It's just that Xu Nuo doesn't have enough time to carry out separate transformation and upgrading.
Moreover, after Xu Nuo carried out the intelligent transformation and upgrade of the Mojia No. [-] steel suit this time, he found that if more functions were added, it would appear a bit too "bloated" for the Mojia No. [-].
Therefore, when Xu Nuo plans to develop separate technical functions in the future, he will not upgrade the Mojia No. [-] steel suit.
At that time, a batch of new materials will be directly used to recreate Mo Jia No. [-]'s brand new steel battle suit!
The fifth series is Xu Nuo's unmanned steel suit!
In the movie, Tony Stark made a lot of sets of iron suits. By the time of "Iron Man 3", it had already reached more than 40 generations.
However, in reality, it is impossible for Xu Nuo to update and iterate so quickly. Some functions and technologies are generally modified and upgraded on the original ink armor and steel suit.
If it really doesn't work, then create a new set, just like Xu Nuo's No. [-] Iron Armor suit with the function of separating the armor from the human armor.
"Xiaowen, are you there?"
Xu Nuo switched to his channel and connected to his assistant Wen Ruohan.
"Boss, I am here."
Wen Ruohan responded immediately.
As the boss's assistant, Wen Ruohan's most basic job now is to ask the boss to be on call.
"Get ready, we're going to America."
Xu Nuo asked his assistant Wen Ruohan to arrange matters related to going abroad.
"Good boss."
Wen Ruohan has been waiting for the boss's order for a long time.
Because she knew that it would be more important for the boss to go abroad to shoot "Oppenheimer" in the United States this time, so she has always paid special attention to it, but the boss has not given her new instructions during this time, and has been tinkering with him in the smart villa. Pile of steel suits.
"Guan Ju, call He Feiyang for me."
Xu Nuo asked Guan Ju to call He Feiyang again.
"I have dialed, and I am waiting for He Feiyang to answer the phone first."
Guan Ju's voice came in the next second.
Now Xu Nuo put on his black armor and steel battle suit, looked at the blue sky, jumped up, and flew around the sky above Nanshan.
Since the foot of the mountain is the city center of Yuzhou, Xu Nuo didn't fly there without notifying the air traffic control department. It was enough to fly only a circle over Nanshan where he was.
Now over Nanshan, because the Science and Technology Department knows that Xu Nuo lives here, and may often conduct some small function tests of the steel suit, so I contacted the air traffic control department to re-plan the airspace over Nanshan. one time.
In other words, now Xu Nuo can basically fly freely over Nanshan.
"Hey Old Xu, are you flying over there?"
After the call was connected, He Feiyang heard some strange noises, which didn't affect the call too much, but He Feiyang guessed, maybe Lao Xu called him while he was in the steel suit and flying, right?
"Can you hear this?"
Xu Nuo smiled, and said: "During this time, I have upgraded the black armor and steel suit. I am doing a test today. It has been half a month. A Fei, are you ready? We can prepare Went abroad to America."
"The production team has already been prepared. There are a total of 271 staff members. If the old Xu Ni's side is also confirmed, then I will arrange for people to buy air tickets."
He Feiyang replied seriously.
"Whatever ticket you buy, just book one."
Xu Nuo said calmly.
"Good guy, hahahaha, Boss Xu really is rich and powerful, so I'll contact the airline company." He Feiyang immediately burst out laughing upon hearing this.
It is indeed more convenient to charter a plane.
After all, there are more than 200 crew members who are going abroad to shoot "Oppenheimer" this time, so it's really hard to buy the same flight if you want to buy air tickets.
It is very convenient to charter a flight. Go to the United States together and arrange hotel check-in together after arriving. These will save a lot of trouble.
"Okay, I'll leave it to you."
After Xu Nuo finished explaining, he hung up the phone, and then the engine of the Mojia steel suit accelerated, and flew towards the smart villa with a bang.
Two days later.
Xu Nuo and his film "Oppenheimer" crew, a group of nearly 300 people, set off from Yuzhou City in China to New York Metropolis in the United States.
When Xu Nuo got off the plane, he felt the enthusiasm from America.
Good guy!
The person who picked up the plane looked over at a glance, and it could be said that there was a sea of people. The combination of the two Chinese characters "Xu Nuo" and the English word "welcome" on the sign was particularly conspicuous.
There were federal police at the scene to maintain order, even Xu Nuo took a look and felt that there should be some people from other parts of the United States at the airport, but it can still be seen how excited the young people in the United States are after seeing Xu Nuo with excitement.
If Xu Nuo is just a world-renowned genius director, then Xu Nuo must not be so popular.
After all, this seems a bit exaggerated.
In addition to being a world-renowned director, Xu Nuo is also a real-life Iron Man. He even saved the Titan bathyscaphe in the recent Titan bathyscaphe crisis and became a "superhero" all over the world.
Coupled with Xu Nuo's other achievements, combined, Xu Nuo has a very high reputation in the United States, especially young people in the United States, especially like Xu Nuo.
Just like the young people in the United States liked the international version of AI entertainment launched by Xu Nuo Real Media!
"I'm so good, old Xu, the young people of America welcome you so much?"
After He Feiyang saw the momentum at the airport, he was stunned.
He had thought that Xu Nuo would definitely be more popular after he came to America, but he never expected that Xu Nuo would be so popular!
"Look, what is an international superstar!"
Beside Xu Nuo, besides He Feiyang, there was another old acquaintance who also came to America this time.
That's right, he is Zhao Huojie.
Behind Zhao Huojie are Zhou Kun and Zhou Youqing.
They came to the United States with Xu Nuo, but it had nothing to do with "Oppenheimer".
Zhao Huojie came to the United States with Xu Nuo by the way, and then he was going to have fun, and Zhou Kun came with his younger sister Zhou Youqing.
Zhou Youqing came to America for serious business.
Because "Mulan" directed by Jamberland is about to be released, and before the release, there are naturally some city tours and promotional activities.
Zhou Youqing, as the heroine of "Mulan" directed by James Lane, must be doing promotional activities with Director James Lane.
"Hey, Lao He, look, there is a welcome sign over there."
"Where?"
"Here, there, at the corner of the crowd, did you see that?"
Good guy, let alone, He Feiyang indeed saw that among the crowd who welcomed Xu Nuo to America, there was indeed one who welcomed him.
It must be because He Feiyang's "Hulk" still achieved a certain box office success in the United States, so there are fans who welcome He Feiyang.
Just as Xu Nuo and his group walked out of the airport terminal amidst the tide of welcome, the domestic ambassador to the United States, people from the American Black House, and director Jamberland walked in front of them.
"Hello, Director Xu."
Ambassador Hua came forward and warmly shook hands with Xu Nuo: "Let me introduce, this is Mr. Capulo Edron from the Black Palace, this is"
"Director Jamberland, we are old acquaintances."
Without further ado, Xu Nuo gave a warm hug to director Jamberland first.
"Director Xu, welcome to America, look, you are really welcome here." Director Jamberland said with a smile.
