Li Ao once commented on women: those who are emotional but not sexy can be female writers; Sexy and insensitive can be female stars; Those who are not emotional and sexy can be Obasan; Can there be such a person who is emotional and sexy? Li Ao, who has learned from ancient times to the present, probably forgot that there really is such a beautiful woman as a fairy. She is not only beautiful, but also clever. She not only has a successful career, but also has a rich life. She not only lived a long life, but also was recognized by the world. Hedy Lamarr is one of them.
A wealthy family, Hedy Lamarr was born in Vienna191411.9. Her father is a Jewish banker and her mother is a pianist. Most marriages of the rich exist in name only. As described by Zhang Ailing, few couples love each other for a long time. But the parents of this little girl named Hedwig, Eva Maria and Kessler, are very caring.
? Later, in Rama's later autobiography, she wrote: "My mother is a very beautiful woman, and my father loves her very much, so my life is not only rich, but also bathed in love. At that time, I felt that when a woman is beautiful, there will be men who love her. This is the world. "
? A little girl, who inherited her mother's beauty, let her father start her life according to the model of "rich girl": she went to a Swedish girls' school and studied ballet and piano. The longer the doll, the better it looks, and the results in all subjects are excellent (especially mathematics). It's embarrassing for parents to bring that up.
With the development step by step, Rama should gradually become a socialite of the upper class, marry a celebrity of the upper class, and then grow old gracefully to become a lady ... but Rama decided to change this long-term life. 193 1 year, 17 Rama gave up her communication major. That year, she ushered in her first big-screen work, Money Street. 1932, a film company in Czechoslovakia invited 18-year-old Heidi Rama to be the heroine of Ecstacy, and promised to push the film to the international market, but only if she appeared naked. She said yes. 1933, The Head Fell to the Ground premiered in Czechoslovakia, and Hedy Lamarr became the first naked star in the world. In this film, her beautiful face and graceful posture running in the Woods not only shocked the audience, but also brought overwhelming criticism. The face earned by parents since childhood was thrown away by the times. When the old couple happily watched the premiere of their daughter's big movie, "their parents sat there dumbfounded when they saw their daughter dangling naked on the screen."
? The film was banned by many countries at that time, but Heidi became famous overnight. The audience didn't notice her acting at all. Wherever she goes, men are in awe of her beauty, but they are not interested in her inside. The gap between the rich and ordinary people lies in execution. When the poor diaosi saved money to buy postcards, Austrian arms tycoon Mandel immediately turned his imaginary wish into action and proposed to her with great wealth.
The old mother and father finally breathed a sigh of relief. They worried that appearing naked would affect their daughter's marriage, but hanged a rich husband. With the unexpected support of their parents, they got married three months after they met. In addition to enjoying the pleasure brought by his wife, Mandel also added a daily job, that is, spending a lot of money to collect copies of this film, because his wife's ass is absolutely unacceptable to the general public.
? The market stock of works that make themselves famous is getting less and less. If this is tolerable, Rama will never tolerate her husband, that is, make friends with the Nazis. Mandel, on the other hand, likes to take Rama to the gathering of Nazi senior officials, not only because Rama can satisfy Mandel's vanity, but also because her beauty can bring Mandel more arms orders.
1937, Rama, who has been married for four years, can't stand it. When attending a party with her husband, she fainted in the bathroom, then jumped out of the window and boarded the train to Paris overnight. She didn't go to her father and didn't remain anonymous, but went to Hollywood, USA. Rama, who has amazing beauty, was attracted by MGM tycoon Louis Meyer when she was in London, and then MGM signed a contract with her for seven years. Rama also took the stage name Hedy Lamarr at that time, and officially started her career as an actress.
In the following years, Rama appeared in a series of beautiful movies. Rama was called "the most beautiful woman in the world" by MGM. She co-starred with several film emperors, including Clark and Gabe. But people always pay attention to Rama's beauty and seldom pay attention to her acting skills. Even if a movie is bound to sell well as long as a poster featuring her is posted, this situation has not changed.
Although there have been vases in movies, the light of wisdom can't hide them. 1939 One day, Rama read an article about human gland endocrine in the newspaper. The author's name is george antheil. Just like the current stars are keen on micro-plastic surgery, Rama immediately contacted George, hoping to make his figure ratio more perfect. After a few words, she found that the cook who didn't want to be a general was not a good teacher. George antheil is actually a pianist, and his main direction is to provide music for Hollywood movies. Studying human glands is just a hobby. He not only wrote about the influence of gland secretion on crime, but also wrote a love column and even studied radio communication technology. Communication technology, yes, is Rama's old business communication major. Mandel, Rama's rich husband, has been discussing the technology of radio signal remote control and wireless communication interference with the Nazis. At that time, wireless communication technology was a military secret, but when Mandel talked with Nazi weapons experts about related technologies, his wife Rama was allowed to watch and even be allowed to record. On the one hand, family, on the other hand, everyone thinks that qingqing grasslands is full of beautiful women. I didn't expect Kochi's daughter Rama to pay attention to radio communication jamming technology at that time. As Rama left her husband and the Nazis, she also brought the records and achievements of this technology to the United States.
? During World War II, every country will use radio signals to guide torpedoes to hit their targets, but there is a problem: the enemy can also make torpedoes deviate from their targets by interfering with radio signals. Because the early radio communication was transmitted on a single channel at the same time, as long as the other party detects this channel, it can effectively interfere with the signal. Rama thinks this problem can be solved. Her idea is simple, that is, to change one channel into multiple channels. At the torpedo transmitter, a batch of signals are transmitted through multiple channels in a random channel sequence, while at the receiver, the discrete signals are combined in the same order. In this way, the received signal is noise for the receiver who does not know the channel sequence. But how to do this? Pianist Antell said that we can learn the principles of piano.
? Antell said that all automatic pianos are controlled by coded perforated paper, and each hole only controls one tone, which together is a piece of music. Rama was immediately inspired: Can the radio control of torpedoes also develop multiple frequencies in this way, instead of a single frequency, and each frequency only controls one message? If it is damaged, it can be corrected as a whole to avoid interference.
At the beginning of 1940, Rama and Antell designed an airplane navigation system based on this principle. Antell designed a pair of paper rolls, which were placed in the plane and torpedo respectively, and specified the order of frequency change. 194 1 year, Rama and Antell officially named this technology "frequency hopping technology" and applied for a patent. In August 1942, 1 1, the patent was officially passed. The patent batch number is 2292387, and the patent owners are Hedy Lamarr and george antheil.
? After Rama learned that the patent application was successful, he discussed with Antell to donate the patent to the American government for free, hoping that the United States would use it against Nazi Germany. However, Rama didn't get what she wanted. Because this is not the focus of the FBI hearing.
? First of all, many people present couldn't understand what she was saying. The military thinks the torpedo has nothing to do with the piano. How can an actress be more professional than a weapons expert? Second, many people present are interested in her, including her appearance and her dress. Third, the FBI is very suspicious of her identity ~ it is likely that her ex-husband or the Nazis sent her undercover. In the end, the US military decided not to put the "frequency hopping technology" into military use, and the patent was sealed and became a secret.
? However, the hearing was not held in vain, and the military also gave Rama a way to make money: you have such a face, you should help the government sell "war bonds" and raise military expenses for the anti-fascist struggle. Smart people are smart because they never go from one road to another. She really went to sell "war bonds" At that time, Rama proposed "auctioning Hedy Lamarr's kisses", hoping to sell 680 kisses at a price of $6.5438+0.7 million to resist the Nazis. As a result, Rama raised $200,000 after the tour. This figure is equivalent to $350 million now.
? Until the mid-1950s, the American government gave Hoffman Radio a patent to produce sonar buoys and radios accompanying airplanes, and the names of the patent inventors were erased, that is, the patents of Rama and Antell. On the basis of this patent, Hoffman Radio Company completed the development of the "frequency hopping technology" device, which was used by the United States to block the huge naval vessels off the coast of Cuba during the "Cuban Missile Crisis" to achieve safe communication. Later, the U.S. military began to use unmanned general control aircraft in the Vietnam War, which was also developed on the basis of this technology.
1985, this core technology was used by a little-known company, which is now one of the top 500 companies in the world, with a market value exceeding10 billion US dollars, Qualcomm. Although CDMA technology in Qualcomm was independently developed, the origin of this theory is Rama and Antheil. Antonio, the co-founder of Qualcomm, once said this about Lama. "She has a very amazing patent. People usually don't think that a movie star has any brains, but she does. "
1997, 83-year-old Kelp Rama was awarded the Pioneer Award of American Electronic Therapy Foundation. Time is also lucky, most beautiful women are beautiful and unfortunate, because people from poor backgrounds want to win a good future and live a rich life without food and clothing; Those who are born with wealth mostly become tools of their families and are forced by their parents and brothers to exchange for greater benefits. Few people like Hedy Lamarr can make their own decisions.
