What kind of world is this

While riding a motorcycle with two girls in front and back, Nathan was thinking, there is a problem!

The nature of capitalists is greedy, in other words, human nature is greedy, and everyone is like this.

With regard to the ordering of military aircraft in the United States, this tradition has also continued. Take future generations, such as the F-22 and F-35, whose prices have soared all the way, making it difficult for the wealthy United States to accept.

This kind of thing happened in the 1960s. For the F-111 project, the price was set at a relatively low level, and then it went up all the way, and the price soared to the point where the US military could not accept it.

Aircraft companies have many excuses, such as rising labor costs, inflation, and apportioning research and development expenses. In short, the price just won’t come.

The military suffered a huge loss on the F-111, so it learned from it painstakingly. When placing an order, it was sold at a fixed price, and an aircraft was as much as it cost. It was beyond the military to quit, so as to avoid the greed of capitalists.

Only Grumman was fooled. In later generations, no other company did it, because inflation is an unpredictable factor.

The U.S. Navy ordered 429 Tomcat fighters, all at a fixed price, but only delivered dozens of them. The poor economic situation in the United States led to a substantial expansion of its associates, and Grumman lost money.

Every time an airplane is delivered, Grumman has to pay for it. In such a situation, Grumman of course quit, and fixed-price delivery became a futile.

Grumman requested a new contract, but the process was a long one. During this period, the aircraft produced by Grumman was on the verge of bankruptcy.

It's just that, in history, Grumman complained in 1971, and only re-signed the contract in 73, and now it is 75 years.

Grumman can only survive on the funds lent to it by the Navy, but Congress simply refuses to approve the new contract, so that this star model is about to disappear.

At this time, the sudden appearance of a rich oil man made Grumman's eyes shine. For the Navy, this is also a good time to breathe.

In order to attract the attention of the big oil rich man, although there were accidents in the filming, the film was successfully continued, and Jenny can breathe a sigh of relief.

This film has soaked her efforts, if the film is abandoned halfway, she will definitely be depressed from then on.

All of this, constantly rolling in Nathan's mind, is similar to and different from the history that Nathan is familiar with. This time and space that has passed through often appears to be confused with the timeline of later generations. What is going on

Could it be the time and space chaos caused by one's own crossing? Or did you travel to another time and space by yourself

Who is that oil rich man? Nathan didn't ask, it's still classified as an absolute secret, but as long as you check the bs in this time and space, it will be clear if there is a Tomcat equipped.

Back to the crew, when Jenny announced that the film would continue to be filmed, everyone cheered. At this moment, they were excited from the bottom of their hearts. This film was also saturated with the efforts of others.

"In the future, we will use models to shoot dangerous shots." Even Tony gave in. He pursued realism and had to consider safety issues. If the situation happened last time, they would definitely not be able to continue.

Moreover, there are no dangerous shots in the back. Various flying maneuvers have been practiced repeatedly. Shooting has entered a hectic state. Even Emily has been ordered to pause before finishing the filming. The communication with Nathan on the flight allowed Nathan to speed up the shooting.

It seems that this film is in a hurry.

Nathan carried his helmet and stepped down from the fighter plane. The setting sun shone on Nathan’s body and stretched his shadow very long. Nathan’s helmet was taken off and he put on sunglasses. He walked very handsomely. In this scene, look. It looks so beautiful.

"Ka, okay, let's call it a day!" Tony shouted.

This is the last shot. After this shot is over, all that is left is the editing of the film. Tony's face is full of joy: "Today, the crew has a meal and celebrates at the bar in the evening."

In all, the entire shooting process lasted for two months, which is almost a record. You know, a classic film, from writing the script, shooting, and post-production, is often one or two years, and this film , It's definitely fast enough, and it's not fast food yet, those shots all look pretty wonderful.

"Okay, it's finally over." Jenny said to Nathan, "Nathan, you are getting more and more on-screen now, I think you can enter Hollywood."

Nathan has never studied acting, but has become the leading actor. In the entire film, he has the most roles.

Nathan rubbed his hair and said, "It's finally over. I can go back to my previous life."

"Do you miss Emily?" Jenny asked suddenly, with a sour taste in her mouth.

Hearing this, Nathan reacted. Yeah, I haven't seen her in recent times

When she was completely busy shooting, Emily disappeared suddenly, Nathan didn't notice it at first, but now when Jenny talks about it, Nathan feels a kind of loss in her heart.

"Nathan, I wonder if you can take it to the sky for once." Suddenly, Jenny said this.

Jenny came because of this film, and now, the shooting has been completed, and the post-production will take place in the Hollywood studio, that is to say, Jenny is leaving.

Before leaving, Jenny wanted to let Nathan take her to the sky once.

Nathan is also speechless for this request, miss, find out, this is not a taxi, just go up!

This is a fighter plane of tens of millions. One take-off and landing will cost tens of thousands of dollars. If it is for training or shooting, it can be tolerated. After all, the Navy is for the future of this fighter.

Now, you want to take someone to go for a ride? How romantic does it take to do it

Moreover, this is a fighter jet. What's the point of flying in level? If she were to make a few maneuvers, Jenny would have to vomit all over the cockpit.

In the field of flying, there is an unwritten tradition. The ground handling does not matter, whoever vomits will wipe it.

Seeing Nathan’s face, Jenny knew that she was taking it for granted: "I just remembered the time when you took me for a drive on a motorcycle. It must be more interesting to think about God. Forget it, let’s go and go to me. Have a drink where you live." (End of this chapter)
