"On the ship, you can move freely in the areas we have designated. However, in some areas that are confidential, Sergeant James must be notified and he will coordinate with us." The captain of the Enterprise planned an action for the crew.

The area, mainly the deck area, and a conference room were transformed into a flight control center.

"Regarding the take-off and landing shots of the aircraft, you must submit a report in advance and our flight squadron will make unified arrangements." The navigation part of the aircraft carrier is under the control of the captain, while the flying part is under the control of the carrier-based air wing commander. The crew also has to work with

Dealing with two command centers.

"If you have no other questions, let us wish you a smooth shoot."

Everyone raised their glasses, and then the senior officers left. They still had naval patrol duties to attend to.

"So, are we giving them extra money? Their aircraft carriers and carrier-based aircraft were originally going to perform missions, and we still have to pay so much money." Ronald quietly asked the producer Brooke Hay next to him.

silent.

"Looking on the bright side, it's very rare that the Navy is willing to let us pay."

After dinner, Ronald returned to the bunk assigned to him. He was six feet two inches tall, so it was a bit cramped to sleep on the bed. The temperature in the cabin was relatively high, and he was a little sweaty.

The bunks where only non-commissioned officers can sleep were allocated by the navy. The conditions of the bunks for soldiers are even worse.

There are 6,000 people on the entire aircraft carrier busy to operate this huge combat machine. In addition to the people on the ship, there is another rotation of 6,000 people on vacation at the San Diego Naval Base, which is rotated every six months.

Ronald reserved several quiet cabins for the actors, who needed to stay in good condition. He, Bruckheimer, and director of photography Kimball squeezed into a small place, and there were some unknown machines next to them.

buzzing sound.

In addition to the noise, the temperature was also relatively high. Ronald woke up at five o'clock the next morning and simply went out to watch the sunrise over the sea.

"It's so beautiful!" Ronald looked at the sun rising over the blue sky and blue sea. He took out his camera and took a few photos. He wanted to wake up all the actors who were still suffering from jet lag and start filming now.

On the Enterprise, the Navy gave five days of shooting time. Ronald did not want to waste every sunrise and sunset moment.

"Sir, you can only take pictures in the direction of the sea, not the bridge and the antenna." Sergeant James, who served as the liaison officer, faithfully stopped Ronald's idea of ​​using the bridge in the composition.

"Then I'll use this director's viewfinder, the one without film, to see where it's convenient to take the shot. Come with me and remind me of any sensitive areas."

"I'm happy to." Sergeant James accompanied Ronald and walked all the way on the deck, pointing out some sensitive places that could easily leak secrets to Ronald. At the same time, he told him that those places could not be photographed, and those places could only be used for long-range shots.

Those who needed to be blurred were carefully informed to Ronald.

The two returned to the officers' mess and met Tom Cruise and director of photography Kimball.

"The conference room used as the flight control center is very small, and the actors are probably sweating profusely." Kimball came over to report.

"It doesn't matter, sweating is more manly." Ronald took orange juice and bread. The conditions in the officer's mess were better.

"How's it going? Do you like it here?" Ronald asked Cruise at the dining table.

"Very good, I'm very excited." Tom Cruise was burdened with the pressure of being worth a million dollars, but when he got to the aircraft carrier, he relaxed a lot.

"What happened?" Ronald asked Bruckheimer next to him.

"The pilots here only ask for Tom's autograph." Bruckheimer said with a smile.

Navy officers and soldiers, especially naval aviation personnel, are a very proud group of people. They rarely chase stars. Among the leading actors, they only asked Cruise, who had played the role in "It's Crazy", for an autograph, and Kimer and others.

People turned a blind eye, which allowed Cruise to regain his strong self-confidence.

"action!"

In the small cabin, the lights took up a large space. On the conference table fixed on the ground, a bald actor playing the role of a flight captain was facing the camera and smoking a big cigar.

With his back to the camera is the actor playing the role of the "Jaguar" pilot.

The captain of the flight wing was lecturing him. Because the Jaguar was locked by the MiG-28 missile in the air battle, it suddenly suffered from a psychological barrier. In the end, it was unable to land on the aircraft carrier deck in the night sky after the sun had set. When the Lone Ranger landed on his own

Knowing that the Jaguar did not dare to land at night, he initiated a go-around and accompanied the Jaguar to finally land safely on the ship.

Jaguar was still knocked down by the pressure. He thought of his wife and the children he had never met, and insisted on retiring.

Standing outside were Tom Cruise and Anthony Edwards, who played the role of Goose. He couldn't squeeze into the small room and watched the filming from outside.

"You're in a relationship with that cutie?" Cruise asked Edwards.

"Yeah, Meg and I hit it off." Edwards and Meg Ryan, who plays his wife, got together on the Miramar set.

Her character is also a catalyst for the plot. She told Charlie in the bar that the Lone Ranger fell in love with her at first sight, which made the Lone Ranger and Charlie fall in love with each other.

Later, when Goose died unfortunately, he also came to the base and handed Goose's dog tag to the Lone Ranger, allowing him to carry on Goose's legacy and continue moving forward.

Meg Ryan is also a college student and has been filming commercials to pay for her tuition. Her ability to comprehend is better than that of ordinary actors. Anthony Edwards took the lead and the two became a couple.

"What about you? Have you succeeded in McGillis?"

"It's okay, I kissed her in the movie, but her heart seemed to be with someone else." Tom Cruise pursed his lips.

"cut!"

"Oh..." Everyone breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly walked out to find ice Coke to cool down. Everyone's shirts were soaked with sweat. Their faces and foreheads were heated by the direct sunlight of high-power lights, and sweat kept flowing.

Come down.

Only Ronald was very satisfied.

He could imagine that when the time comes in the cinema, the female audiences will sit up straight when they see the sweat on the faces of these handsome guys on the screen and the soaked shirts on their bodies, as if they can smell the stench of their sweat.

In the afternoon, a new group of actors came to film.

"action!"

The scene this time is the big air battle at the end of the movie. Iceman, played by Val Kilmer, proposed to the wing leader that he did not want the Lone Ranger to be their backup aircraft in the battle. The Lone Ranger's style of ignoring the wingmen and only focusing on his own limelight made him unable to

He couldn't trust each other. This line made him very satisfied. The roles of the two in the movie were similar to those in reality. They both hated each other.

"I know what you are thinking, but don't discuss this matter and execute the order." The bald actor assumed the posture of a flight captain and asked him to get on the plane and set off.

"cut!"

At dusk, the crew obtained the consent of the flight wing and filmed on the deck the scene of the two crews of "Iceman" and "Hollywood" boarding the plane and setting off for the battle.

The wing helped by painting the outer cockpit with black paint and spray-painting the names and call signs of the pilot and radar officer.

Several crew members on the deck began to pretend to help the actors board the plane. Under the light of the setting sun, Val Kilmer raised his thumb to salute the officers and soldiers, and then converted it into a powerful salute.

"cut!"

Tom Cruise went up again. This time the Lone Ranger was used as a backup plane and did not dispatch at the beginning. He pulled the Sidewinder missile mounted under the plane. This is a real thing.

Then he climbed up the boarding ladder and sat in the cockpit. He calmed down, put on his helmet and got ready.

"cut!"

The shots on the first day were done very well.

"When can we shoot the real footage of fighter jets taking off and landing?" Ronald came to the real flight commander, who also came to watch the crew's filming.

"I heard that you want the dusk light. We have missions these days. As long as the weather is suitable, I will arrange to take off and land at the right time."

"Thank you!" Ronald thanked him, then announced that the filming was over, dismissed the crew, and everyone could walk around in the designated area.

All the actors began to walk to the restaurant. Only Val Kilmer watched more scenes of Cruise than him, and his dissatisfaction grew day by day.

However, the number of people allowed to shoot on the aircraft carrier was limited, and his manager did not come with him, making it impossible to discuss countermeasures.

"Let's go," he waved with Rick Rossovich, who played Iceman's radar officer, and the two shared a cabin.

"Our place is pretty good. It's quiet and noisy. It's better than the director's bunk." Val Kilmer sounded satisfied with his treatment, but he didn't know what it was like over there with Tom Cruise.

"Oh, shxt!" Rick Rosovich turned on the light in the room. He slept in a hurry last night and didn't look at the wall by himself. Today he actually found a big radiation symbol on the wall with a line below it.

Character.

"What are you shouting for?" Val Kilmer was disturbed by Rosovich's fuss and was a little dissatisfied.

"Dong dong..." Rick Rosovich knocked on the metal wall, "There should be a nuclear reactor behind here. No wonder there is no noise here. I didn't see this symbol yesterday."

"Are you sure?" Fang Kilmer jumped up.

"Yes, there are small words below, core..."

Rosovich jumped back suddenly. Is this "nuclear" the same as a nuclear bomb?

"Damn it, why are they so kind? Let's leave quickly."

The two people put on their clothes and quickly left the bunk. Along the passage below the aircraft carrier deck, the two people passed through many doors and came to the front of the aircraft carrier. The soldiers' doors along the way saw that they were wearing pilot uniforms and saluted them.

.

"This room is good, why don't we sleep here." The two found a larger bunk and looked at the military uniforms hanging on the back of the door. It was an officer's dormitory.

"Hey, it's still comfortable here." The two actors fell asleep quickly.

Early the next morning, Ronald got up at five o'clock. After doing dozens of push-ups, he was about to go out for dinner.

Sergeant James came over and saluted him, "Captain, please come over and discuss something."

"What happened?" Ronald asked, seeing James' unkind expression.

"Two of you actors arrived in a confidential area and slept on the bed in the captain's dormitory of a carrier-based fighter squadron."

"Forehead……"

"I'm going to call the producer. You go to the deck and wait for us."
