Chapter 734 Hit Hollywood

"Mel, the camera is off!"

There is a beautiful hillside on the outskirts of Los Angeles. A holly forest is newly planted on the hillside. Mrs. Wilcox fell in love with this fertile land full of fig trees and named it Hollywood.

After a photographer found the beauty of this place while looking for a location, this place called Hollywood became known as the United States. A film company began to camp here, and Los Angeles next to it also entered the fast lane of development.

In today's holly forest, Griffith did not seem to hear the dull explosions from time to time in the distance. He and his partners focused on adjusting the angle of the camera. As the camera was slightly straightened, the whole city of Los Angeles was included.

Next to

, the volunteer young actor Mel looked nervous. Every time the explosion came, he would be scared to shrink his neck. If it hadn't been for Griffith's calmness, he might have chosen to lie down immediately.

Looking down from Mount Hollywood, you can have a panoramic view of the whole city of Los Angeles. Although it is not as prosperous as the big cities on the east coast or even as San Francisco, it is not small in scale. If it can be developed for 20 or 30 years, it may be comparable to some medium-sized cities in the east.

It's a pity.

Griffith sighed from the bottom of his heart, because the shell came. Relentless wars are spreading all over the world. Gunfire has torn up countless families. Gas, explosions and flames are devouring the whole civilized world.

The following city used to be all his dreams. The film "The Birth of a Country" made him famous in the world, but before he could enjoy them, the world war took away almost all his ideals and gave birth to an idea, that is, to shoot a real war film. Like the documentary naval film "Sea Souls" shot by the Chinese for the first time ten years ago, it can be shocking.

So after the news that the Chinese were about to land on the west coast spread and the whole city was empty, he still insisted on staying and waiting for the arrival of that moment.

With the sudden landing of the [***] team in Santa Barbara a few days ago, he knew that the opportunity had come, so he and Mel came to this hill overlooking the whole of Los Angeles. He wanted to record this moment with a camera. He did not want to be famous, but to let people know about the war through his own lens. Cruelty and essence.

"Mel, are you from Chicago?" Seeing Mel's nervous look, Griffith took out a pack of wrinkled cigarettes from his pocket.

After Mel waved his hand to show that he didn't smoke, he said, "Yes, I'm from Chicago."

"Then why did you come here? The east is more prosperous than here, and it can also be far away from war.

"I don't know either." Griffith's words seemed to calm Mel's nervous mood, and he finally sat down boldly, looked at the sea and said, "I like movies. I heard that there are many film companies recruiting actors here, so I came here, but I'm a little unlucky."

"It seems that I'm lucky."

Hearing Griffith say this, Mel couldn't help smiling, but the explosion earlier in the distance made him clenched his fist again, looked at the rising ball of smoke, and asked worriedly, "Mr. Griffith, do you think we can still win?"

"Victory?"

Griffith sighed. If he had been a year ago, he might have said without hesitation that victory belonged to the United States, but now! Perhaps only God can predict the future. He shook his head: "I don't know, but I know that the war can't go on."

Mel nodded. Although he was immersed in his actor's dream, it did not mean that he did not understand the outside world. For this unfinished war, the United States has paid a high price, rebuilt the navy, expanded the army, and spent all the economic achievements of decades on the military against the Chinese. In the resistance against China, more than a million American soldiers were killed or captured, millions of families were forced to leave their hometowns and go inland, and tens of millions of offshore assets were turned into ashes.

But even so, it still failed to block the [***] team, which was more fierce than the beast, and was finally boarded by them in Santa Barbara! Now, the most important thing is that Los Angeles, San Francisco and San Diego are still in the hands of the army, but no one knows that if California falls, how will people living inland and on the east coast react, whether to shake their heads and regret defeat and continue to live, or to be completely disappointed in the country and fall into the biggest after the Civil War. What about the social unrest?

How are they doing in the cabin outside Chicago?

Mel sighed and was ready to pick up the helmet exchanged for cigarettes from soldiers not far away, but when he just got up and raised his eyelids, a large group of silver highlights, like seagulls flying on the tip of the waves, flew over the sea.

God!

Mel's eyes widened, pulled Griffith hard, and shouted in horror, "Mr. Griffith, Mr. Griffith, look!" Following Mel's fingers, Griffith also suddenly jumped up: "Mel, hide, that hole, go there, hide!"

"Mr. Griffith, what are you going to do?"

"Don't worry about me, hide!" Griffith pushed Mel hard into the cave not far away, then grabbed his helmet and rushed to the camera, point the camera at the group of planes flying from the sea.

The silver-white fuselage quickly skimmed the hillside. Griffith looked at these low-altitude planes in surprise. He couldn't believe that the Chinese pilots would fly so low. The camera even captured the cold face with wind mirrors in the cabin.

When a pair of eagles coldly passed by the place where he stood, he seemed to feel that he was being targeted by countless terrible beasts, and he couldn't help climbing up a little water mist on his back.

Fortunately, Chinese pilots were not interested in wasting expensive bombs to deal with a camera. They lined up formations they didn't understand, skimming from the top of the mountain and flying to the distant city of Los Angeles.

The lens is aimed at three of the fighters with black strange birds and beasts that have never been seen before. Their light figures shuttled between the tops of the mountains. The big black bomb under the belly of the plane did not seem to affect the action at all. When a thick cement reinforced shore gun fortress appeared in the camera, the fighter It began to rise gradually.

In the camera, hundreds of soldiers ran in a panic, and a cannon around the fortress began to rotate. Recently, he, who had been in the officers' club, knew that those were rapid-fire guns specially used to deal with planes.

The rapid-fire cannons began to rotate with the three planes, but their flexible postures could not be kept up by the cannons. When the soldiers moved out of the machine guns, one of the planes suddenly rushed down from the sky!

"Ji."

"Ah!"

"What is this? What's the sound! God, help me, I'm suffocating!" Hiding in the cave, Mel, who was close to the stone wall, covered his ears in horror and kept shouting, and his body kept trembling with the unpleasant and harsh voice.

Griffith was also frightened by the sound and wanted to cover his ears, but when he thought of his dream, he could only grit his teeth and let the camera follow the plane and the fortress.

The sound seemed to make the camera picture sway and twist. I only saw those soldiers who had just prepared to do a big fight covered their ears. Although some quick-fire guns and machine guns fired, the crooked bullets could not touch the plane that was swooping down violently.

Seeing that the angle of the plane's dive was getting bigger and bigger, Griffith even forgot the unpleasant noise it made. He stared at the unpleasant picture in the camera, and doubt echoed in his mind.

What is it going to do? Do you want to hit and destroy it?

Not long after the idea rose, I saw a dark spot flash under the abdomen of the plane in the camera, and the huge bomb suddenly broke out of bondage. Then the plane continued to dive for a distance and suddenly climbed up like a rocket.

Griffith did not aim at the plane. He wanted to follow the bomb, but the speed of the bomb was too fast. When the camera moved down quickly, it only caught the thick cement top of the fortress, as if a cloud of dust and smoke were rising, and then he saw countless soldiers rushing out of the fortress with a pale face.

The soldier in the front was very fast. When he was about to jump off the high platform, a ball of orange suddenly flashed behind him, and the fire was rapidly enlarged, and then. Boom! A loud noise seemed to sound from his ear. Griffith only saw that the extremely thick cement fortress burst from the inside like an eggshell. At the moment when the soldier in front jumped down, the shock wave rolled his body and pushed him dozens of meters away.

The dome burst open in an instant, and the huge cement block was lifted by the flames, and then turned into dense stone rain, falling around, as if a meteorite hitting the ground.

Griffith raised his head. He could no longer calmly make a camera. The scene just now was so shocking. At this time, he understood what war was and why the United States would lose, because nothing could stop such a plane and the explosion of power.

What makes him even more chilly is that this is just a bomb. What if it is a few hundred or even thousands?!

It's not a big Los Angeles. Can it still exist?

"Ji, Jie."

The second plane began to dive. With the same sound and the same action, the bomb penetrated the fortress again, and this time it seemed to be more serious. I only saw the thick shore cannon arranged at the bottom, which was suddenly wrapped in the fire, and then an explosion dozens of times more violent than just now, and the huge mushroom In the explosive fireball and dust, the shore gun fortress has been completely destroyed!

Griffith didn't know that it was the power of dozens of waiting shells on the shore, but one thing he knew very well was that the United States could not stop these planes that would scream death.

Los Angeles is finished! The United States is doomed!

The third plane hovered away, because there was no need to waste bombs here. It circled like an eagle looking down at the ground, and then aimed at the small fortress on the top of the Mount Lollywood, which was less than a kilometer away from the holly forest, and suddenly swooted down.

Jie Jie!

"Boom." The fortress was destroyed.

Countless voices like demons laughing echoed over Los Angeles. When these death gods left, Los Angeles was already full of beacon fire, but the Chinese seemed to have no intention of giving up, and the second batch of planes came again.

One after another, one after another, Griffith looked at it stupidly and was no longer in the mood to shoot, because he knew that no matter how hard he tried, it was impossible to record this terrible war!

"Boom, rumble."

Suddenly, less than ten minutes after the last plane left, the earth began to tremble violently. The sky was completely torn apart, and countless black spots flew from the distance of the sea, crossed over his head, fell on the Hollywood Hills, and fell in Los Angeles.

The explosions were endless. Fire and smoke obscured the camera. Buildings and houses were pushed down in pieces in the explosion. Countless soldiers cried and fled around wrapped in flames.

God!

Griffith's hands trembled and took out a cigarette from his pocket. After trembling and putting it in his mouth, he couldn't get a match. The shells are still falling, maybe a thousand, maybe 10,000, or maybe more.

The explosion was not clear at all, and he didn't want to count it clearly. He stared at it like this, forgetting his fatigue and dreams. From the day he saw the fall, until Los Angeles was completely submerged by the gunfire.
