Rebirth of America, this is my time

Ethan doesn't know what Mi Luohua and Atari are planning. After all, he is not Professor X and does not have the ability to read minds.

At the moment, he is arranging work in the company.

Julis Noble.

I'm here. The philosophical girl whose name was called stood up.

In the coming period, you will be solely responsible for all matters related to the company's orders.

No problem, Mr. Jones. The girl nodded cheerfully, I'm already familiar with this process.

Okay. Ethan smiled and expressed satisfaction, and called out another name, Damio Dean.

I'm here. The young man whose name was called responded quickly.

In the coming period, you will be responsible for all production and distribution at the factory. Regarding the procurement of raw materials, you can directly interface with Frank from the San Francisco Electronics Company, and then submit the previous week's report to Allen every Tuesday. Marcy reconciles, do you have any questions?

No problem. The young man replied happily, Don't worry, Mr. Jones, I won't let you down.

Hmm~ Ethan admired his confidence, and then turned his attention to the oldest financial director in the company.

After I leave, you will actually be in control of the company's comprehensive affairs, because whether it is the receipt of orders, production, distribution and payment collection, these things will eventually be handed over to your financial department for verification and accounting, so in the future, , you will be very busy.

Oh Boss, I'm used to it.

Allen Massey straightened out his corn belly and said with a smile: As long as you are working, what can you do to not be busy?

Besides, aren't all of our busy work just for our year-end bonus?

Since tomorrow will be a beautiful place that can be seen with the naked eye, then the busyness now is acceptable.

Oh - you are right - These words made Ethan laugh, I will give you a year-end bonus in the new year!

At the same time, he also lamented in his heart that there is a difference between an old man who has been in society for many years and a young man who has just left school!

The word dream can no longer bind him.

But that's fine. As a human being, you should be more realistic.

If you work hard for a whole year and end up living a pitiful three hundred days, then what's the point of this kind of struggle?

After waving his hand and asking his subordinates to go about their business, Ethan turned to look at the big boss on the boss's chair.

Chairman, are you satisfied with my work? Ethan looked at his sister with a smile.

Yes, all the work arrangements just now were completed under Evelin's gaze.

Although Evelin does not participate in the company's daily operations, she is the company's chairman after all.

Putting aside the fact of equity, she is indeed the biggest official in the company~

Therefore, when arranging work, Ethan had no intention of avoiding suspicion.

Facing Ethan's inquiry, Evelin immediately smiled and narrowed her eyes after listening to the whole process.

Oh Ethan - I'm pleased with your work - you did a great job -

Thank you. Ethan nodded repeatedly, very happy.

However, before he could say anything, Evelin said again: But I am very dissatisfied with the position setting.

As the president of the company, all his work is to let each subordinate perform his own duties?

Then can't anyone be the CEO? If you let a dog go, you can save a lot of money~

So, you're fired.

‘? ? ? ’

These words stunned Ethan.

But the next second he understood that his sister was joking, so he nodded happily.

Okay, okay, I'll pack my things and leave the company immediately.

Unfortunately, no matter how much he cheered, the fleeting confusion had already been captured by the sharp-eyed Evelin.

After seeing Ethan's subconscious expression of dementia, the girl immediately laughed, Goose goose...Ethan...I really want to take a camera to take a picture of your expression just now, and then get a painting Frame it!”

Because your silly look is so cute!

‘…’

Such words made Ethan's face darken.

He didn't expect his sister to describe him like this.

It's not that he doesn't like the word cute, it's that he feels that the word doesn't suit him.

So, he pursed his lips and shook his head, pretending to be angry and said: Oh, my dear sister, you can't describe me as cute.

I hate that word.

‘? ’ These words made Evelin a little confused, “Why?”

She thought Ethan was angry, Oh come on Ethan, you know, I was just kidding you.

I know you are joking with me, but I don't like this joke. Ethan said seriously.

However, just when Evelin frowned slightly, thinking that she had really offended Ethan, Ethan said again: “Because there are only three words in this world that can describe me, one is handsome, and the other is very handsome. , the last one is super handsome!”

‘! ! ! ’

Evelin was shocked.

She didn't expect that there were such shameless people in the world?

Does he dislike the adjective cute because he thinks he is handsome?

Oh...it's really...

Okay, Okay, you are so handsome...

Evelin stood up with a smile, took Ethan's arm as if coaxing a child, and pushed him out of the office.

Oh Ethan - I admit you are handsome - you are the most handsome man in the world -

So let's not waste time on this established fact, okay?

Go! Go! Go!

Let's go to Los Angeles!

Let's go to Hollywood!

We're going on vacation!

That's right, the reason why Ethan wants to delegate all the work in the company to others is because he will be on vacation in the next period of time.

Counting from the time when the lawsuit came up, he had not had a good rest for almost a year, so when Pac-Man became a success and Destiny Game was on the right track, Ethan, who had been running for a long time, wanted to stop in the lovely summer. , take a break.

It happened that Spielberg was filming in Los Angeles, so Ethan decided to go to see him. When he told Evelin his idea, the girl who had also been busy for a long time also decided to go with him.

It is for this reason that Evelin will sit in the position of chairman for the first time after the company was established.

And she exercised her power for the first time...

That is to fire the president of the company.

(laugh~

Neither of them took this joking fight seriously, and the happy departure also aroused a burst of envy.

Some people in the company think that this kind of behavior of just leaving is too unrestrained, while others think that making money and enjoying both is the real life.

But no matter what, this has nothing to do with Ethan. He stepped on the accelerator and hit the direction. With a buzzing roar, the two of them arrived in Los Angeles.

To be honest, after being severely shown off by Steve Jobs last time, Ethan was armed to the teeth this time.

The floral shirt, the toad mirror, and even the hair were redone, with side-parted bangs similar to those of Little Plum.

Once the convertible is opened, the main feature is that it looks handsome!

But unfortunately, regardless of whether it was the straight road from Palo Alto to Los Angeles, the cobweb road from Los Angeles to Hollywood, or the confusing road that kept wandering around Hollywood, he did not attract many people along the way. people's attention.

This situation surprised Ethan.

Because he thinks he is more handsome than Steve Jobs, and much more handsome!

Why did many sisters look at him along the way before, but no one looked at him this time?

He can't understand!

But when he made a right turn, he subconsciously saw his sister in the passenger seat...

The figure with fluttering blond hair in a pure white dress made him instantly find the crux of the problem!

‘Damn! If I had known, I would have driven two cars! ’

Ethan felt like a fool for basking in the sun for so long for no reason!

parking!

Close the shed!

Get angry and start again!

And the angry look made Evelin, who witnessed all this with her own eyes, laugh non-stop.

In fact, when Ethan wanted to take a convertible for a drive in California in June, the girl already knew what the guy was up to.

But she didn't remind her.

Because Ethan’s silly look is really cute.

Compared with the state when he was serious, it was a huge contrast.

When Ethan drove the car to Warner Bros. Studios with a straight face, Spielberg, who had already received the news when they set off, had already asked the crew to wait at the door. Under the leadership of the other party, Next, Ethan arrived at Studio Nos. 15 and 16 of Warner Bros. Studios. With his appearance, Spielberg, who was busy, put aside his work to welcome him.

Oh Ethan! We met again and I'm really glad you came to visit me while I was at work.

Oh Evelyn! You look really beautiful today. I'm so happy to see you.

Although Ethan came to play with Spielberg, he couldn't do anything to disturb other people's work.

After briefly saying hello to this guy, Ethan urged him to return to his job quickly and talk about other things after work.

Spielberg also knew that when the crew started running, money was being burned every minute and every second, so he naturally accepted Ethan's concern, asked his assistant to accompany Ethan, and then picked up the film again. guide tube.

And when he entered working mode, the purpose of Ethan's trip was achieved.

He came here today specifically to watch Spielberg make a movie.

As for the name of the movie...

It's called Close Encounters of the Third Kind.

Ethan had seen this movie in his previous life. The main content was that some people on earth encountered UFOs in different places and were attracted by the same mysterious force to Devil's Tower in Wyoming, America. At the same time, the U.S. government and scientists also received signals from aliens and decided to build a base in Devil's Tower to communicate with aliens. The whole process was actually very smooth. Earthlings and aliens communicated through music and lights and reached a peaceful and friendly relationship. In the end, the alien spacecraft arrived at Devil's Tower, revealing its true identity to humans for the first time, and released some earthlings who had disappeared inexplicably many years ago. At the same time, they also took away a man who voluntarily left the earth and wanted to Guys who want to make contact with alien civilizations.

If Ethan remembers correctly, it was an electrician.

Ethan admitted that when he watched this movie, he felt extremely bored at first.

In his opinion, there is a problem with the narrative of this movie. The plot of the story was not explained at the beginning, but three different perspectives, or three different main lines, were used to jointly construct a theme.

If it weren't for the fact that Spielberg was the director, he didn't even think he would have been able to finish the movie.

But when he endured it to the end, the alien spacecraft appeared.

With his amazing imagination, he had to admit that pictures were indeed more shocking than words.

When he was watching the movie, he wanted to know how the alien mothership in the movie was made.

And now...

When he saw a huge model with a diameter of forty feet in Warner's studio, he realized that this thing was actually shot. When he got closer to take a closer look, the tiny light bulbs, black The optical cable caused his childhood filter to shatter on the floor.

Oh, are you using light bulbs to create the light on the spaceship? Ethan asked curiously.

Yes. Before he could finish his words, a voice of approval appeared, Because Steven needs all parts of the spacecraft to light up according to frequency, so we installed more than 10,000 light bulbs on the spacecraft.

Because only then, when they light up, can we create a rhythm similar to the beat of music.

And to build this spacecraft, we spent about 3.5 million US dollars.

These words made Ethan turn his head.

When he found out that the speaker was a middle-aged man wearing glasses, he extended his hand in a friendly manner and introduced himself to his home.

Hello sir, thank you for answering my question, I am Ethan Jones.

Ethan Jones? Oh, I know you - Steven spends every day after get off work in front of the Pac-Man arcade machine you invented.

He said it gave him inspiration.

The middle-aged man smiled and stretched out his hand, briefly shaking hands with Ethan.

At the same time, he introduced himself: I am Douglas Trumbull, the visual artist on the crew. You may not know me, but it doesn't matter, because you must know my work. I did the visual effects of 2001: A Space Odyssey of.

Oh, this is a boss too.

Ethan shook his hand vigorously a few times.

With the other party's introduction, Ethan gradually understood how Spielberg presented the visual effects in the movie.

To put it simply, it is actually a miracle produced by great force.

Use models to create your imagination, and then add color to them with the most basic physical principles.

The process...

Why do I feel it's a bit similar to a circuit board arcade machine? Ethan complained softly.

It's essentially the same. Evelin agreed very much and said, There's just a slight difference in cost.

Since Ethan was brought by Spielberg, no matter what they were curious about, there were professionals on the crew responsible for answering it.

After watching the scene for a while, Ethan lost interest in filming after receiving various answers.

The reason is also very simple, that is, the complicated behind-the-scenes work makes the filming process uninteresting.

For example, cameras in this era did not have automatic focus, so the camera crew needed to use a ruler to measure the optimal distance between the camera and the actors, and then use tape to mark the ground, and have the actors stand in a fixed position during filming. This will ensure that the finished product will not be out of focus;

For example, equipment such as shooting monitors have not yet been developed, so during movie shooting, you can only watch the actors' live performance. As for the real-time footage? Only the photographer can see this. Even the director has to wait until the film is developed before he can know whether the scene on the day of shooting is what he wants. And it is precisely because the director himself is not sure that the term reshoots was born.

After the boring situation that the pre-production work was longer than the actual shooting time appeared, Ethan's curiosity about film production plummeted like a person who fell into a valley. Even if an old man came to rescue him at this time, he probably would not rekindle his curiosity. The fire started.

Also feeling bored was Evelin.

The girl thought it would be fun on a Hollywood set, but it turned out...

That's it?

Out of politeness, the two of them did not leave immediately. After Spielberg finished work, after a busy day, he also offered to treat the two of them to a meal at a place he had chosen. , it was the MK restaurant that Chaplin liked that he told Ethan last time.

Although watching the filming of the movie was not a good feeling, Ethan and Evelin heard a piece of gossip at the dinner table.

“Oh Ethan, you ask me where did the inspiration for the movie Close Encounters of the Third Kind come from?”

The inspiration for this movie actually has a prototype.

Do you know about the Roswell incident?

It's the alien flying saucer crash that happened in 1947.

That story actually has a sequel. I don't know if it's true or not, but I thought it was interesting, so I decided to make it into a movie.

The follow-up content should have happened more than ten years ago. We in America finally contacted the alien civilization in the Roswell incident. The other party came to our earth in a spaceship. After some communication, we discovered The other person is very kind.”

It was precisely because the aliens were very friendly that we wanted to know more information. The commander-in-chief at the time directly signed a secret exchange plan. The content of the plan was to send a small team of American troops to follow the aliens. People returned to their hometowns to learn about the information there, and in order to get the information, they made an agreement with the aliens to send them back after a number of years.

The content of the story is so simple. I actually don't know the end of the story, because I haven't heard of humans coming back yet, but it doesn't matter, right? Because just these known contents are enough for me to shoot. It’s become a movie…”

Good guy!

Ethan was stunned when he heard this!

It turns out that the movie Close Encounters of the Third Kind is actually a follow-up to the Roswell incident?

This is too funny!

As for the reason?

Very simple!

Because Ethan heard about the Roswell incident!

In other words, in the era when he grew up in his previous life, even newspapers were reporting on this matter!

From **** to Legal Evening News, there is no newspaper that does not discuss it!

The content of this incident is also very simple. It is said that in 1947, there was a thunderstorm in Roswell, New Mexico. A farmer heard a loud noise, and many metal fragments were found around the farm the next day. . This situation prompted the US military to intervene in the investigation.

A few days later, another Roswell resident claimed that he had discovered the wreckage of a UFO, surrounded by several small bodies. Subsequently, the US government intervened forcefully and sealed off the scene.

At this point, the voice of aliens coming to the earth has become louder.

In his previous life, Ethan only listened to this story as gossip.

Because until 2023, there are no publicly recognized aliens in the world.

But now...

Is Close Encounters of the Third Kind a follow-up to Roswell?

OK……

The great director Spielberg is really awesome!

Any piece of gossip can be made into a movie!

Ethan felt that Spielberg's source of inspiration was a bit outrageous.

And the person who thought the story was quite ridiculous was Evelin.

After dinner and saying goodbye to Spielberg, on the way to the hotel, the girl sitting in the passenger seat complained about the boring plot of the movie, If this story is related to the Roswell incident, then I think it should Make it darker!

Because that would be fun!

For example, when aliens come to the earth, it is inconvenient to have kind contact with human beings. Later, it is slightly changed. These aliens are advanced creatures in the universe. They come to the earth to observe the lower civilization of humans. Is there a possibility of threatening yourself? If there is a threat, then attack them directly. If there is no threat, then obtain genetic data and inhibit their development.

That's why they took a group of humans with them when they left, for the purpose of conducting special research on humans. Then they promised to send them back. That was because the aliens were planning to send spies disguised as humans after studying human DNA. This is a secret invasion of Earth.

And this breaking point will be after humans are taken away by aliens. In other words, this fact can only be discovered by humans on board the spacecraft. At the end of the movie, they are staring at the Earth farther and farther away on the spaceship. , watching them slowly turn black.

This is a sign that the Earth will be in deep crisis in the future.

Well, doesn't this story sound more interesting?

Evelin winked at Ethan.

It’s almost as if he doesn’t have praise written on his face anymore.

And her imagination made Ethan marvel, Oh! Fxxk! You changed the plot like this, and it immediately changed from a science fiction film to an action film, maybe even a science fiction action film. This movie can definitely be made. The second part, the specific content is about aliens integrating into the earth!

As soon as the words came out, Ethan felt something was wrong.

If it were changed according to my sister's imagination, wouldn't this movie become Marvel's Secret Invasion event?

This idea is really...

Somewhat outrageous!

However, just when Ethan wanted to lament that this connection across time and space was a coincidence...

A sudden flash of light made him feel that something was even more wrong.

She frowned slightly and said, Evelin.

Um?

Did Steven just say that at the end of the story, the aliens promised humans that they would send back the humans they took away after a period of time?

Yeah, what's wrong? Evelin answered instinctively.

She didn't understand why Ethan asked.

But at this moment, Ethan felt that his mind was open!

Spielberg's version of the story is that aliens came to Earth, took an electrician away, and returned him years later.

Evelin's version of the story is that aliens have evil intentions towards humans and want to plot to subvert the entire human civilization.

Combining these two stories, it turns out that aliens came to the earth, took away an electrician, and sent a disguised body to the earth many years later. Because on the spacecraft, the human electrician had already heard about the aliens' conspiracy, so after arriving on the alien planet, he actively wanted to find the aliens who were going to the earth and instigate them to rebel.

Because this alien is a kind-hearted person and a good boy who opposes his own civilization's plan to subvert other civilizations, so after the human electrician found it, it decided to help and alert the people on earth that there was an alien crisis.

Since the aliens first came into contact with America, in order to avoid the failure of the subversion plan, when they appeared again, they chose to come in the opposite direction. And because the kind aliens concentrated on learning when they came into contact with human electricians. A lot of human knowledge, much of which is electrical knowledge, so after coming to Earth, it gradually became an electrician.

But this identity does not allow it to remind humans that there is an alien crisis outside, so after racking its brains, it decided to spread its reminder by writing a book. After practicing it many times, it wrote a book based on its own personal experience. He said this sentence——

'The universe is a dark forest, and every civilization is a hunter with a gun...'

That's right!

Liu, the electrician with thick eyebrows and big eyes, is actually an alien!

The logic special code is closed!

Ha ha ha ha--

Thinking of this, Ethan immediately burst into laughter.

And his strange laughter also made Evelin very confused, Ethan, what's wrong with you?

I'm fine... Hahaha... I just... Hahaha... I just thought of some fun things...

Ethan couldn't be happier.

At this moment, he finally found the happiness he had today!

Although this idea cannot be explained by others, it is not important!

If he is happy, that's enough!

Ha ha ha ha--

He tried not to laugh out loud~

While having fun, Ethan remembered another question.

Evelin thinks that after the third kind of contact, aliens will attack the earth?

So isn't this the story of Space Invaders?

hiss……

It turns out that the inspiration for this game comes from here!

At this moment, Ethan felt that no one understood Space Invaders better than him!

Thanks to [Baidu Family Bucket] for the 5,000 starting point coins, and thank you to [Book Friends 20221128004343399] for the 400 starting points.

Note: ① The Roswell Incident has been posted on Station C. If you are interested, you can check it out directly. There are more interpretations than psoriasis on a telephone pole. This incident later led to the publication of a book called The Truth About Roswell. Even if you are interested, don't buy it. The content in it is basically the same as what is spread on the Internet. It just adds a lot of details. It is really a waste of money. ②Whether Close Encounters of the Third Kind was filmed based on the popular Operation Zeta in the United States, Spielberg has not responded directly to this, but this movie is indeed popular because of the follow-up to the Roswell incident, extraterrestrial Human beings were a hot topic among American people at that time, so watching Close Encounters of the Third Kind may feel boring now, but at that time, people watched it like watching a documentary. The whole story is the fantasy and fantasy of Americans at that time. Looking forward to it, this is also the dividend of the times. ③Space Invaders is really a reverse interpretation of Operation Zeta. I feel that aliens will not be so beautiful.

PS1, the fever has subsided, but the cough is still there, and the important thing is that it is still weak. One chapter will be published today and tomorrow, and double updates will be resumed on the weekend.

PS2, Da Liu’s idea came to me by chance when he was coding. I don’t know if he got confused or happened by chance. Just watch it for fun, it’s not part of the outline.
