Iron Maiden and White Widow
Since the 1990s, with the collapse of the Red Giant, Hollywood has entered a period of rapid development.
Before that, Hollywood movies couldn't be viewed globally like they are now; another camp rejected their sugar-coated bullets.
But now... with the Titanic shattering all the world's ice, Hollywood movies can now travel freely to any corner of the globe.
It was a series of Hollywood blockbusters, such as Titanic, that made other markets aware of the gap in film quality, and made it easy for them to enter those markets.
Even those who were originally at opposite ends of the spectrum quickly embraced Hollywood films.
Even now, it can even be released simultaneously.
This is the convenience brought about by rapidly developing technology.
In the last century, a Hollywood movie had to be shown in North America for a period of time before it could be shown in other regions.
Now, they can be released simultaneously, and in China, they're even being released earlier than in North America...
Therefore, while "Lucy" was being released in the America, it was also being rolled out in other film markets.
Europe remains a huge voting bloc, but Russia is no slouch either.
Here, in this icy and snowy place, there aren't many forms of entertainment, so people are quite fond of watching movies.
Dreykov was the same; he believed that watching America movies was a way to understand his enemy, which is why he developed this hobby.
As the manager of the Red Room, he also saw the new movie "Lucy".
He always prefers new movies to old ones; new movies are more interesting.
Then, as soon as the movie started, my eyes widened.
"Natasha!"
He said with hatred, "Even in death I will never forget that beautiful face."
As the most outstanding Black Widow, no one expected that Natasha Romanoff would betray the organization without a word.
So after that, Dreykov no longer trusted any agents.
It should be noted that the Red Room had done everything it could to control them, yet such a 'horrible' thing still happened.
Therefore, these women are untrustworthy!
"Melina!"
So Dreykov called Melina over.
Not long after, a still attractive young woman arrived.
Melina Vosskov, nicknamed "Iron Maiden," has always been an outstanding agent of the Red Room.
But at the same time, she has another identity: she is the mother of Black Widow Natasha Romanoff and White Widow Yelena Belova.
Therefore, ever since Natasha betrayed the organization, the Iron Maiden Melina knew something was wrong, so she gradually kept a low profile and faded out of the Red Room.
But as a secret agent, she couldn't truly distance herself, nor could she retire peacefully.
Because even Dreykov couldn't be 'at ease'.
As long as these agents are alive, they will be under his supervision.
"General."
The Iron Maiden, Melina, lowered her head and looked down, displaying great obedience.
Only in this way can Dreykov's wariness be lowered.
Dreykov only took over the Red Room in the 1990s, but he was ruthless and had extraordinary methods, and quickly seized power.
Dreykov did not speak directly, but instead stared at the Iron Maiden Melina.
Melina was only in her forties and still retained her charm, but he had no interest in women.
For Melina, Dreykov's eyes seemed to possess a penetrating power that made her tremble.
"Melina, how have I treated you since I took control of the Red Room?"
"The general treats me extremely well."
Melina answered without hesitation.
What about the Black Widows?
"Dreykov continued to ask."
Melina didn't understand his meaning, so she could only say against her will, "That's good too. The general has never mistreated them."
"Yes, then why did she betray me?"
Dreykov's tone was full of anger.
He then flipped the screen so that Melina could see the person on it.
"This is?"
Melina's pupils dilated in shock; she naturally recognized her daughter.
Although she was only Natasha's adoptive mother, her feelings for Natasha were genuine.
She always treated Natasha and Yelena as her own daughters.
So even if Natasha is wearing makeup, she can be easily recognized.
"This is your good daughter."
Dreykov has confirmed that this is indeed Natasha Romanoff.
Melina immediately lowered her head. "General..."
Dreykov laughed. "What a joke."
"She went to great lengths to betray the organization just to become a movie star?"
Melina was speechless; she didn't know what was happening.
What is Natasha thinking?
Why would I go into making movies?
Is capitalism really so corrupting?
Melina also became confused.
Dreykov then made a few gestures on a screen with a blank expression.
Then, a young woman dressed in white Super Suit walked in.
"Yelena..."
Melina opened her mouth, but dared not utter a sound.
Yelena didn't even glance at her, completely ignoring her.
Melina knew this wasn't Yelena's intention, because Yelena was being controlled by Dreykov.
It's mind control.
It all started with Natasha's betrayal.
Ever since Natasha chose to betray the Red Room, Dreykov has become distrustful of everyone.
The Red Room has already done a lot, such as removing the fertility of its agents and turning them into ruthless killing machines...
Even so, Natasha still betrayed them.
After that, Dreykov tried to find a way to make it completely impossible for the agents to betray him.
So Melina developed this method of mind control and planted miniature bombs in the heads of the Black Widows. If she activated them, these agents would have their heads blown off.
Just like DC's Suicide Squad.
The first person they controlled was Yelena Belova.
Melina was filled with regret, but there was nothing she could do.
Because she dared to have disloyal thoughts, Dreykov would also be able to control her.
Dreykov doesn't need anyone else's will; he only needs agents to become his puppets.
He looked at Yelena with satisfaction. She had no selfish thoughts and would not betray him; this was a truly excellent agent.
"Yelena, I want you to go to America."
Dreykov then said.
"I want you to destroy everything that bitch has. Go kill her male lover first."
Dreykov also learned that the film Natasha starred in was produced by Starlight Pictures.
He then learned about Starlight Pictures and discovered that Natasha had never made a movie before, nor had she ever thought of appearing in public.
All of this must be related to Starlight Pictures.
So Dreykov learned about Li Chen's situation and showed the photos to Yelena.
Dreykov doesn't care what relationship Li Chen has with Natasha, but anyone connected to that bitch must die!
