Reborn America, this is my time

Chapter 82 Stacking BUFF
Now that Steven Spielberg said that he could match up and help Ethan Jones and Ralph Bell connect, then Ethan Jones would not be polite, and immediately said that he would go to the hotel in Universal Studios Stay here and wait for good news from the other party.

Because they came together and were also very interested in games, Steve Jobs didn't intend to leave. He decided to accompany Ethan Jones to complete all the things, and then went back to take care of his own personal computer business .

The words of the two made Steven Spielberg very happy. This kind of staying and waiting was the best trust for him, so he directly recruited Universal's staff and asked them to give Ethan Jones and Steven Spielberg the best trust. Steve Jobs arranges accommodation.Seeing that it was still early, he took the initiative to become a tour guide and took Ethan Jones around Universal Studios.

To be honest, Ethan Jones is a very curious person.When he was watching "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", he was wondering why the bamboo forest fight between Yu Jiaolong and Li Mubai could be shot so beautifully.When watching "Who Am I", the jump in it made him want to know-why hasn't Jackie Chan made a movie like this, why hasn't he been blocked by the insurance company?
Therefore, when Steven Spielberg said that there were no secrets in Universal Studios, Ethan Jones stood up decisively. He wanted to see what the shark props in "Jaws" looked like. What can scare people when watching a movie.

And after he saw the three shark models created for filming with his own eyes, the rigid appearance, dull eyes, and Yazi who didn't look smart at first glance disappointed him, so he directly asked in doubt: "Shi Steven, are you sure the sharks in the movie are them? Such a fake thing can scare people?"

When the topic entered the field he is best at, Steven Spielberg immediately flew up with confidence——

"Of course, the sharks in the movie are what they are."

"It's normal for you to think that models are not as scary as movies, because the pictures on the big screen are blessed with narrative techniques."

"We originally wanted to make "Jaws" into a plasma film, but because these models are too heavy, it is too troublesome to make it float and descend normally in the water. Therefore, in order to save costs , I deleted the bloody content in the script, from the initial blood plasma film to the current suspense film, it is precisely because it leaves room for the audience's imagination, so you feel that the great white shark in the movie is more The props in reality should be scary, because when you watch a movie, you will imagine according to the plot of the movie, and the picture imagined by the human brain is actually the scariest picture in the world. To infiltrate people."

"This method is called blank space in art, right?" Steve Jobs understood with a smile.

"Yes, it's called blank space." Steven Spielberg nodded in agreement.

Hearing what they said, Ethan Jones also understood that "Jaws" is playing with a sense of atmosphere.

After abandoning the blood and severed limbs that are common in American B-grade movies, it uses artistic conception to create a horror atmosphere.

"If this is the case, isn't it a pity?" Ethan Jones touched the model of the great white shark and said, "You spent so much money building it, but didn't make it really swim, isn't it a pity? "

"Of course!" admitted Steven Spielberg, "it's a pity."

But in the next second, he changed the subject again and said: "However, this failure made me understand one thing. In the future, when building prop models, we must consider its autonomy. Moreover, a friend of mine is currently researching Electric model, if nothing else happens, I will be able to use his technology in my next film, and by that time, I may be able to make up for my regret.”

This remark made Ethan Jones, who was petting the great white shark, blink his eyes.

Because he knows that the friend of Steven Spielberg's mouth is George Lucas.

And since it's George Lucas, isn't the movie represented by the electric model the national IP of America, "Star Wars"...

'The film has already started? '

Ethan Jones was a little curious and asked directly: "Electric model? What movie does your friend make again? Why are these things used?"

"Oh, it's a science fiction movie about outer space," said Steven Spielberg.

"Wow~ Outer space? Is it so cool?" Ethan Jones continued to verify.

"Yeah~ I think it's cool too!" When Steven Spielberg talked about this matter, his eyes lit up, "Ethan, are you interested? If you are interested, someday When I have time, I can take you there to have a look."

"Not far, his studio is in Van Nuss."

"However, the filming of the film has not yet started, it is only in the modeling process, and it will not start until March next year at the earliest."

'understood!Definitely Star Wars. '

After confirming this fact, Ethan Jones smiled and agreed, "Okay, I'll go there when I finish what I'm doing."

"Don't worry, you will definitely be able to get the new game before we go."

Steven Spielberg was so happy to hear this, and he continued to take the two to visit Universal Pictures when he was interested, until the assistant came over and said that the hotel has been arranged and they can check in at any time, and they will When the entire floor was covered and there was no need to worry about privacy issues, Steven Spielberg accompanied them to the hotel to rest, and then drove home to contact his father.

To be honest, the most useful background in this world is my parents.

When Steven Spielberg called his father and told him that he had encountered some troubles, the old Spielberg drove to Universal the next morning without saying a word. It made Ethan Jones, who had just woken up, bewildered.

'This is too fast! '

Without hesitation, he took a shower and brushed his teeth, and went to Universal Studios to meet the old Spielberg. After telling his story and needs, the rich old Spielberg, wearing glasses, shook his head and sighed , Said: "Sure enough, something happened."

"When Mi Luohua sued Atari for the infringement of "Pong", I felt that there was something wrong with this matter, because Mi Luohua claimed 200 million from Atari. If it was only a single game infringement, how could it be possible? Will you pay so much?"

"Now……"

"Ugh!"

"Rudolph's patent really made capitalists revel and practitioners cry!"

"Rudolph?" The name made Ethan Jones a little puzzled.

How did he feel that the person he was talking about was not the same person as the old Spielberg was talking about?

And his doubts made Steven Spielberg laugh and said, "Oh Ethan, don't be surprised, that's how it works."

"Professor Ralph Bell's original name was Rudolf Heinrich Bell. In order to avoid being hunted down, he changed his name when he fled. That's why people call him Ralph now, and we Those who knew his real name still called him Rudolph."

'oh!This special code is more stable! '

Ethan Jones nodded with a smile, indicating that he understood.

And just when he suddenly realized, the old Spielberg changed the subject and looked at him curiously, "Ethan Jones?"

"Yeah?" The call brought Ethan Jones back to his thoughts.

And when he refocused his eyes on the old Spielberg, the retired guy suddenly smiled and said: "Ethan, you may not know, I heard your name a long time ago, that is In the Los Angeles Times."

""Snake Game" is a very good idea, I have also played it, and I think it is more fun than all the games on the market."

"Oh thank you~ Thank you for your compliment." Such words made Ethan Jones laugh from ear to ear.

But his answer made the old Spielberg wave his hands again and again, saying: "Hi! Ethan, don't be so restrained!"

"Although we did meet for the first time today, you are my son's friend after all, and there is no distance between us."

"Now everyone is sitting together, it's pure chatting."

"Oh yes." Ethan Jones replied with a smile, knowing.

But at the same time, he also said: "Uh...Arnold...can I call you that?"

"Of course!" Old Spielberg nodded affirmatively.

"Okay Arnold." Ethan Jones pursed his lips and explained: "Arnold, I'm not being cautious, I just want to show you some respect, since you have read the report of the "Los Angeles Times", then you You should know that "Snake Game" is not my work alone, I just provided the idea, and my sister is responsible for completing it."

"My sister is a student at Stanford, in the School of Engineering, and she studies computers, because she often reads the corresponding books at home and tells about the development of the industry, so I also have a certain understanding of the electronics industry, and it is precisely because I understand it , That's why I understand how powerful an engineer like you is who has developed the GE computer."

"My sister has always told me that when facing real engineers, we must maintain a sense of reverence, because these people are working hard for a better tomorrow for mankind. In terms of material, those of us who provide creativity and enjoyment of technology may be Wealthier, but spiritually, richer and more fulfilled for those of you who lead the way.”

"Oh—hahahaha~~~" Old Spielberg laughed.

Applauded: "Wow, Ethan, your sister and your consciousness are too high!"

"Don't say anything else—"

"At least higher than your skills and inspiration—"

Speaking of which, he even turned his head and looked at his son, "Steven, you should learn more like Ethan!"

"If you can talk like him, then I don't have to worry about you making trouble outside every day!"

Hearing these words, Steven Spielberg rolled his eyes.

And Ethan Jones smiled and waved his hand to express his appreciation.

Yes, he admitted that what he said was a scene.

But so what?

When you meet for the first time, even if there is a relationship, it is considered a stranger.

Say something nice in this situation, and both parties are comfortable.

After laughing, the old Spielberg also brought the topic to the things he cared about most.

"Ethan, I heard...your father was a soldier?"

Ethan Jones was taken aback by this question, because he didn't know why the other party would suddenly ask about it.

However, in the eyes of Ethan Jones, there is no problem with his family background, so he nodded and said: "Yes, Arnold, my father is a soldier. If I remember correctly, he entered the army in 2 after WW1948. Wu?"

Speaking of this, he suddenly laughed and said with emotion: "In my memory, his purpose of joining the army is very simple, that is to get a stable job with good income. So, when he was 20 years old , and he joined the army."

"But unfortunately, his luck is not good, because according to his plan, he will choose to retire after 20 years of service, that is, in 1968, but no one thought that in 1965, he was sent to the country of Jiaozhi, And then it stayed there forever."

To be honest, when talking about this story, Ethan Jones actually has no sense of substitution.

He only received the memory of the original body, and did not personally experience those facts.

But when he told the story, he was still very helpless.

Because in his opinion, the father of the original owner of this body was really unlucky.

There are still three years left before I can return to my family and enjoy family happiness at the age of 40.

result……

A war wiped it all out.

This is really...

Ugh!
But when he shook his head helplessly, old Spielberg pursed his lips and nodded.

Standing up slightly, he moved to Ethan Jones' side and patted him on the shoulder.

Then, the handsome guy said with emotion: "Son, your father loves you very much."

"Because I am retiring from the army after 20 years of service, I can enjoy the highest standard of treatment."

"If your father successfully retires from the army, he will not only be able to get a job given priority by the government, but also allow you and your mother to enjoy a more convenient educational environment, employment benefits, and medical insurance paid by the government."

"And as far as I know, as long as the veterans don't pass away, this family benefit will always exist."

"So, your father is not serving for himself, but for the whole family."

'? '

Such words made Ethan a little surprised.

In fact, after time travelling, when he learned that the father of the original owner of the body had been serving in the army until he died, he was a little confused because he didn't know why the father of the original owner of the body would still have a family when he had a family. Serve, not choose to be discharged.

It wasn't until Thomas told him that the man who stayed in Cochin just wanted to fulfill the maximum service period and get state subsidies for the family that he realized how great the father of the original owner of the body was.

But these contents should be special regulations in the army, right?
In the era of underdeveloped information, how did Steven Spielberg's father know?
While he was confused, the old Spielberg took the initiative to get up after patting him on the shoulder.

After smiling and nodding goodbye to the three present, he opened the door and left.

More importantly, when the old Spielberg first came, he was walking with the wind, but now, he is a little staggering.

This situation made Ethan Jones a little surprised, but with the disappearance of the old Spielberg, his son, Steven Spielberg, helped Ethan Jones, "Ethan, your father is a soldier. ? Why didn't you say it earlier?"

"Ah? Is there any problem with this?" Ethan Jones didn't understand.

"Of course there are problems." Steven Spielberg took a deep breath and said, "Because my dad can't listen to these things."

"What?" Ethan Jones still didn't understand.

"Because my dad also served in the army." Steven Spielberg said: "That was in 1941."

"He has personally experienced WW2 and sent away many comrades in arms."

"The same is true for Professor Bell you are looking for. He joined the army in 1943 and also participated in WW2."

"Perhaps for the current American society, the war in Cochin is very disgraceful, but for them, war is war, whether they win or lose, the nature is the same. The so-called battlefield is a huge The killing fields in which the soldiers involved have no right to choose their own life and death, they can only obey orders."

"Fortunately, if you win the battle and are still alive, you will be able to enjoy the glory."

"Unlucky, if you lose the fight and lose your people, then you can only let the future generations bear the infamy."

"They hate this kind of thing very much, and they don't want to hear that a soldier's child has become an orphan because of the war..."

"Because they came down from the battlefield alive, sent away many comrades in arms, and met too many widows."

Having said that, Steven Spielberg let out a heavy breath.

And as the discouraged voice appeared, Ethan Jones' eyes were filled with disbelief.

Steven Spielberg's dad and Ralph Bell both served in the military?

What the hell!

There are some weird buffs on him!
