Iron man prototype

The Avengers starts with Iron Man and ends with Iron Man.

I don't know how many people were moved by the brave "I am Iron Man".

In the hearts of many Marvel comic book fans, Iron Man is the last bottom line:

No one can die, Iron Man!

Today, the island is mainly about this core figure in Marvel comics, the prototype of Iron Man-

Howard Hughes

Captain America once asked Iron Man, "What are you if you take off this armor?" ? 」

Iron Man said, "Genius, philanthropist, billionaire, playboy ..."

It is no exaggeration to say that this is a true portrayal of howard hughes.

Stan Lee once said in an interview that howard hughes was the prototype of Iron Man.

And this handsome and rich son is more legendary and wonderful than a movie.

Hughes was born in 1905. His mother is a British aristocrat and his father is an oil tycoon who graduated from Harvard.

Not only is his family superior, but Hughes also has a super smart brain.

1 1 years old will be his own radio station;

12 years old, invented the moped;

13 years old motorcycle assembled independently;

/kloc-learn to fly at the age of 0/4.

And this talent is also projected on Tony:

Unfortunately, his parents died unexpectedly when he was 18 years old, leaving him to take over the company and inherit most of his parents' inheritance, and once became the top richest man in the United States.

Hughes, a teenager, never thought of inheriting his father's career.

After getting a huge legacy, he began to realize his life dream step by step:

Become the best golfer, the most famous filmmaker and the best pilot.

1926 2 1 year-old Hughes spent $80,000 (about $24 million now) to shoot the first film in his life, Playboy Hogan.

Inexperienced, although he stumbled through the film, he was very disappointed with the quality of the film and burned all the films in a rage.

Although the road to film went badly, Hughes didn't stop there.

1930, Hughes wrote and directed the air combat epic Angel of Hell.

In order to make the best film, Hughes spent $4 million (equivalent to the current $65.438+200 million), got 87 planes and spent $400,000 to build the airport.

In order to shoot a battle scene, 1700 groups of performances were invited. The movie alone has gone 1000 km, and a scene can cost others a movie budget.

The film was shot for three years and almost ruined him.

But the film didn't disappoint him either.

After the film was released, it once became the highest-grossing film at that time, with a box office of more than 8 million dollars, twice the investment of Hughes.

That year, Hughes was 25 years old and gained fame and fortune in Hollywood, but he was more eager for the blue sky.

He wants to fly the fastest plane and become the best pilot.

So he founded an aircraft company-Hughes Aircraft Company.

In order to fly the fastest plane in the world, he found the top aviation engineer at that time and spent more than a year developing a competitive plane-

Hughes 1 (H- 1).

With this plane, Hughes broke all the flight records at that time and completed the round-the-world flight in three days.

When he arrived in new york, the whole city was celebrating him.

Hughes is crazy about everything he loves.

This is true for making movies, and it is also true for flying planes.

For him, all kinds of flying accidents are commonplace. His heart has shifted, his ribs, clavicle and skull have cracked, and he almost died several times.

But nothing can stop his love.

Throughout the 20th century, Hughes Aircraft Company successively invented:

The first practical laser;

The first synchronous satellite;

The first synchronous meteorological satellite;

The first lunar probe.

By 2000, 40% of the satellites in service in the world were produced by Hughes.

With the breakthrough in various fields, Hughes' net worth reached $2.5 billion in 1954, equivalent to $85 billion now.

For such a young, promising, tall and handsome billionaire, there is a steady stream of lace news.

It is said that Hughes dated 164 girlfriends. At that time, almost all American female stars had stories with Hughes.

For example, katharine hepburn, the first lady of American movies.

The sexiest actress of the 1940s, ava gardner.

Jane russell, the legendary Hollywood superstar.

The legendary actress bette davis on the screen.

Haviland, two-time Oscar winner.

In this way, Hughes successfully unlocked the new title-

The biggest womanizer in the world.

Looking back on his wonderful and legendary life.

The island owner wants to say that Hughes in life may not be as perfect as in the movie, but he is also a flesh-and-blood and attractive person.

Like Iron Man, he is bloody and just, and he is desperate to go forward for his dreams.

Maybe in a sense, he is the real Iron Man.
