Chapter 5 War Correspondents
Steve was training with his comrades in the camp.
Although he was very weak, he continued to train, but life was not always sunny. Although he succeeded in joining the army with the "little help" of Dr. Erskine, his physical strength was really not good.
As a result, in many training programs, Steve is always the last to finish or not at all.
But he kept gritting his teeth and insisting.
Of course, if there's one more annoying thing for Steve and the other soldiers in this camp than the strict instructor, it's the new war correspondent.
When they were sweating profusely and didn't dare to wipe their heads, when they were struggling to do push-ups, when they were trying their best to complete various tasks, in short, when their bodies were almost hollowed out by endless training, there was such a person, who carried a small video camera idly, sat around the training ground and easily filmed their miserable appearance.
I have to say that Li Yi's new identity really makes these recruits a little jealous.
Yes, not long after saying goodbye to Steve and Bucky at the fair, Lee Yi found Stark. He knew Stark had a connection to the military.
After all, he was also at the scene when the Super Soldier serum was injected, which shows the relationship between Stark and the military.
Li Yi showed Stark the camera that he had painstakingly "developed" to record long-term color images.
"Wow! Friend, you're so cool about this invention! Stark exclaimed. After all, in this era, although there are already color cameras, they can only shoot continuously for about ten minutes, and they are still the kind that use film, and there are also the disadvantages of being large and bulky.
Howard asked Li Yi after being amazed, "So, Mr. Li, what do you want to do with this magical thing?" How can I help? ”
"Of course, Mr. Stark, you know, continuous battlefield footage is always more powerful than a single black-and-white photograph, and I'm going to use this technology to become a war correspondent......"
Howard was surprised: "Well, Lee. Haven't you thought about making money with this? You know, technology like this can definitely change the future. It's like my hovercar. ”
Li Yi waved his hand: "Howard, you must know that at such a moment, the world is facing war, and there are still many people in the United States who do not understand the harm of war, they only think that war is just a house, we need to use those real images on the scene to make the people truly aware of the harm of war, and let people know the cruelty of war......
In a world like this, which is closely related to the world of superhero movies, saying something nice is definitely one of the most efficient ways to brush up on favorability. Li Yi has now established a noble image for himself.
Howard's eyes when he looked at Li Yi had gradually changed from ordinary people at the beginning to admiration: "I really didn't expect you to be such a noble person." ”
Then Li Yi made his own request about the embarrassment: "Oh, Howard. But now I'm having a little bit of a hard time, so I'm looking for your help. ”
Stark didn't surprise Li Yi: "What's wrong?" Plum. ”
Li Yi continued: "You know, I want to be a war correspondent, but I don't know how to do it. I've heard from some friends that you seem to have some connections to the military, so I'd like to ask you for a favor. ”
Stark looked up, his face full of confidence, "Hey, Lee, my friend. You've got the right person now. Reacquaint yourself. I, Howard Stark, am now an arms dealer and a professional supplier of national weapons......"
It took Mr. Stark about two to three minutes to name some of the titles on him.
However, after Li Yi's statistics, he said a lot of repetitive words, such as: Playboy said it three times, the arms dealer said it five times, the genius said it nine times, and the pacifist even appeared three times......
Finally, Howard's words ended like this: "So, Lee, you will be able to go to Camp XX in a few days with your press card, and I will be there in the near future, preparing for a ...... Not...... Training" he almost slipped through the cracks on the Super Soldier program.
"OK, Stark, thank you for your help. Cheers. ”
……
So Li Yi appeared in Steve's barracks now, as for this barracks is top secret or something, don't care about this problem at all, Li Yi is not an ordinary person after all, although now he wants to watch some things as an ordinary person, but it doesn't mean that he won't give himself a few small hangings temporarily, and there is no need to go into detail about what it is.
Of course, in the general direction, Li Yi only added a small hanging of the fire source in addition to his passiveness.
Li Yi can occasionally see Howard in the barracks, but it is not common, he is supposed to be helping Dr. Erskine build the super soldier's equipment, the more common characters are Agent Carter and Steve.
As for the others, similar to Dr. Erskine and that General Philip, to be honest, Li Yi was not familiar with them.
On this day, Howard mysteriously found Li Yi.
"Hey, Lee. How is life in the barracks these days? ”
"Not bad, but you, Stark, what have you been doing lately? Every time I see you, it's a mysterious look. ”
"Hmm...... How so? Lee, you know, I helped with a very important experiment......"
"Oh? How important? Do I need to take a break from it? I saw a large tree on the east side of the barracks, and more importantly...... There's a hole in the tree. Li Yi said half-jokingly.
Howard hurriedly replied to him: "No, I think this experiment is significant and should be recorded, but you know, only you have a magical video camera...... So I consulted with Dr. Erskine, and he decided to let you record this great moment. ”
In this day and age, the Super Soldier Serum Project is undoubtedly a great project for these people, capable of giving people abilities beyond the limits of human beings, which was a work of God in the past.
"Hmm...... Sounds great, when will it start? ”
"It's been a few days, and I'll come to inform you when the time comes, and the specific candidate hasn't been selected yet."
"Well, I'm looking forward to witnessing that 'great' scene when you spoke."
After Howard left, Li Yi took his own camera and started a new day's video work, after all, although the miniature camera has captured enough material, but the appearance always has to be done, otherwise it will really become a joke for those American GIs to watch their jokes.
Maybe after they finished training, a color photo or a dozen seconds of video could solve the bad image he had in the minds of the soldiers?
