Chapter 329 - Blind Sniping VS Bullet Turning (12)

In the evening, under the cover of the night and sunglasses, Elisabetta left the hotel where Lin Ming Yang was staying in a hurry. Less than ten minutes after she left the house, another guest was ushered into Lin Ming Yang's room.

On the coffee table in the living room was issued an English version of Science magazine, the pages were flipped, and as soon as Beckmambetov sat down his eyes were drawn to an article in the magazine.

The article, entitled "Does a Bullet Turn or Not? The article entitled "Does a Bullet Turn or Not?" discussed an interesting topic, and it had a lot to do with Bekmambetov.

In the movie "Wanted", there is a scene in which a killer fires a bullet from a sniper rifle, and the bullet turns several corners, bypasses several buildings, breaks through the glass, and accurately kills the target. Since then, similar shots have been repeated.

Each close-up of the bullet is accompanied by a rhythmic dance music, as if the bullet is not to kill but to dance. The bullets in the movie have gorgeous patterns, as if they have eyes, and can not only turn corners, but also block the shots of other bullets. When the two killers shoot at each other, the bullets collide with each other and instantly turn into metal sludge. This is not the most fantastic, in the movie Armageddon part, Julie hit a bullet that draws a whole arc, actually continuously turning to kill seven killers, and ultimately back to Julie here, will be her own also killed.

After the movie was released worldwide, the question of whether bullets can turn triggered a heated discussion among viewers on the Internet, and a science enthusiast even drew a physics formula on the Internet to explain it in terms of aerodynamics. The author of the article in Science magazine argues that it is theoretically possible for a bullet to go in an arc, just like a ping-pong ball hitting a curved ball. But bullets are much denser than ping pong balls and much smaller, and not being spheres, they don't produce an arc effect perceptible to the naked eye over short distances. But if it is a long range shot and the bullet is very light, it will produce a certain arc. However, it is basically impossible for the arc and circle to be as pronounced as in the movie.

Lin Mingyang had inadvertently flipped through this article, and it just so happened that the content was related to the issue he was going to discuss with Bekmambetov today, so he purposely put it here.

After quickly skimming through the entire article, Bekmambetov had roughly guessed what Lin Mingyang meant.

When he put down the magazine in his hand, Lin Mingyang followed up by opening the door and asking, "I've done all I can do, so what about you?"

"As you wish!" Bekmambetov lived up to his expectations and took out a stack of design drawings from the briefcase he was carrying, after unfolding them Lin Mingyang saw a peculiarly shaped firearm, at first glance it looked very much like a sniper rifle, but a closer look would reveal that the gun body was missing a very important component - the sniper scope.

"What is this?"

"A specially modified sniper rifle." Bekmambetov explained with a serious expression.

Lin Mingyang snorted, "Maybe you should saw the barrel shorter, maybe you can just use it as a rifle in close combat... without a sniper scope, what kind of sniper rifle is this?"

In the face of questioning, Bekmambetov's face still had a look of idleness on his face as he grinned broadly, "Have you ever heard of blind sniping?"

"Are you sure what you want to express is blind sniping and not flash sniping?"

Lin Ming Yang froze at his words, players who were familiar with CS, the classic shooting game, should not be unfamiliar with this term, as a pure gaming skill, the so-called blind sniping, not to mention in reality, even if it was used in the game, it also contained a lot of luck.

Even if you mark the center of the display, it's really hard to hit the target without opening the mirror and clicking the left button directly to shoot from a distance, or unless you're in a close battle, blind sniping is not very useful. In the game, blind sniping is easily confused with dumping sniping and flash sniping, many people often see game videos of masters performing blind sniping from 100 meters away, but Lin Ming Yang, who is a game master himself, knows very well that it is a kind of dumping sniping with a pure and skillful hand, and it is not blind sniping in the true sense of the word.

"I don't know much about the game, I only know that this kind of shooting technique doesn't require the use of a sniper scope, and that's enough."

Bekmambetov shook his head with disinterest, "Not needing to use a sniper scope to aim, the time saved is used to make up for the shortcomings of the slow speed of the gun, the killer who has mastered this special skill of blind sniping can completely place his opponent under absolute firepower suppression at a long distance... You can imagine, a guy who uses a sniper rifle as a submachine gun, how terrifying it would be to use it.... You can imagine, a guy who uses a sniper rifle as a submachine gun will be such a terrifying existence!"

In the face of this assumption that clearly defies the laws of reality, Lin Ming Yang however shows a keen interest, the movie doesn't need a scientific basis, and the entire Wanted is filled with settings that defy common sense from the beginning to the end, but it's these things that add countless head-banging scenes to the entire movie, directly attracting even more male viewers who love R-rated action movies into the scene.

"You mustn't forget that each of the killers trained by the Brotherhood is equipped with special abilities; Wesley can knock the wings off of flies, bullets can be turned around, aren't there any that can use their eyes as sniper scopes?"

This addition from Bekmambetov completely dispelled the doubts in Lin Ming Yang's mind, he row habitually rubbed his nose with his fingers, "As my new opponent in the movie, just knowing how to use a blind sniper seems a bit insufficient!"

"In the movie I will of course arrange an even more formidable opponent for you, in addition to blind sniping this guy will also possess the special ability of action prediction, after firing his gun he will be able to accurately judge his opponent's possible evasive maneuvers, and then fire consecutively to seal off all of his opponent's retreats."

Lin Ming Yang bitterly smiled and asked, "That means that guy not only knows how to blind snipe, but he also has a hang-up, an opponent locked by him simply has no room to fight back?"

"This is also to add some difficulty for the protagonist to pass the level, so that the plot will be better!"

Bekmambetov rubbed his hands and hemmed and hawed:

"Even though the opponent is powerful, it's definitely necessary to leave the protagonist with a bug to crack him... This bug is the Irregular Evasive Action, which as the name suggests is to evade without following the norm, thus interfering with the opponent's action anticipation and thus gaining time for a counterattack."

This blind sniping idea comparable to the "bullet turn" successfully impressed Lin Ming Yang, and Bekmambetov left with a satisfied smile, leaving Lin Ming Yang alone in the room in his reverie.

The next day, Lin Mingyang, dressed in new clothes, took a car to Monica Bellucci's mansion in the suburbs of Milan.

Don't look at Monica Bellucci is Italy's "national treasure" beauty, her home is not as luxurious as Lin Mingyang imagined, this small public house is located in the semi-suburban section of Danshay Street, in the garden of a small passageway between the head of a small building in the new Greek style. There were four tall windows on the first floor, but the roof was short. The walls are of salon-white wood, trimmed with spandrels, in the Pompeian style.

A few soft-seated circle chairs, a couple of antique armchairs, a brand-new lemon-wood chaise longue, and a beautiful Reynolds harp constituted her simple but unobtrusive parlor.

A middle-aged servant introduced Lin Mingyang into the living room, and just as Lin Mingyang was admiring an oil painting on the wall with his back, there was a loud sound of treading on the stairs.

Following the sound, the elegant and picturesque Monica's face was not covered in powder, her hands were half-resting on the staircase handrail, as if she was an angel in the clouds, walking into the mortal world in a graceful manner.

Every time in the line of sight, Monica Bellucci is always wearing an elegant long skirt or flowing elegant extremely rich in femininity of the clothes. The media's street photos hardly see Monica like American actresses, casually wear a pair of jeans, set a sweatshirt on the street.

Even in her own home, Monica dresses very well. Knowing that Lin Mingyang had personally come to visit, she had even dressed up, wearing thin and transparent clothes, as if the delicate curves of her entire body could be seen, and in the swaying reflection of the light that filtered through the blinds into the room, she was flooded with a hazy beauty.

"Mr. Felix, I rarely have strange male visitors in my house, and the only thing I drink besides coffee is black tea, so please forgive me!"

Lin Ming Yang's eyes had already been unable to leave Monica's tantalizing figure, and hearing this, it doubled the impression of pure chastity towards this beautiful woman.

He took the jade hand of the beauty sitting closely beside him and gently kissed it before praising, "Beautiful hostess and exquisite and elegant room, I feel like I'm in a stunning oil painting right now, that feeling is marvelous!"

"Really?" Monica's large jewel-blue eyes flickered as she stared at Lin Mingyang, "You didn't come here today just to discuss art appreciation with me, did you?"

Lin Ming Yang closed his eyes and took a deep breath, a mesmerized expression on his face, "It's indeed a pity not to discuss art in such a good atmosphere!"

Lin Ming Yang's "familiar" behavior made Monica slightly annoyed, but out of hospitality, she couldn't directly brush off the other party's interest, so she had to patiently deal with it:

"I was not a good girl when I was studying, and I even dropped out of college to become a model despite my family's objections. To say that I have a good understanding of art, I'm afraid that my shallow understanding is not even childish enough to be evaluated in your eyes."

Lin Ming Yang opened his eyes and looked at Monica with a burning gaze, "In my eyes, you are an unrivaled work of art!"

Monica's heart trembled and she hurriedly lowered her eyebrows to hide her embarrassment:

"I don't quite understand what you mean."

Lin Mingyang stood up from the sofa, clasping his hands as he paced around the modest living room of his host's home:

"How can a star actor become an artist? This is a question I've been thinking about lately, and when I saw you linking up with Sophie Marceau and Eva Hertzgova and appearing on the cover of a famous fashion magazine with a veiled face, I suddenly felt that I had found at least a small part of the answer."

Lin Mingyang walked behind the reclining chair where Monica was seated, leaned down, gently rested both hands on either side of his mistress's delicate face, and whispered in her ear to the gorgeous movable dressing mirror directly in front of her:

"Remove the make-up from your face that hides the truth, and if you really possess more energy than you can muster outside of caging people's eyes by a pretty mask, then you have what is known as an artist's temperament!"
