She is a Hollywood superstar with a prominent background and good personal relationship with the top military officials in various countries, the world's first actress to appear naked, and the first person to expose her personal lust and privacy, known as "the most beautiful woman in the world", Vivien Leigh is also proud of looking like her.

At the same time, she is also the inventor of radio "frequency hopping" technology, the first applicant for the CDMA wireless digital communication system patent more than seventy years ago, and scientists honor her as the mother of CDMA.
She is Hedy Lamarr, born in the last century, a strange woman with great style and great intelligence.
Heidi Lamar, whose original name was Hedwig Eva Maria Kiesler, was born on November 9, 1914, to a prominent Jewish family in Vienna, Austria. From an early age, he lived a wealthy life, had no worries about food and clothing, and received a good education. During his school days, he showed great intelligence in mathematics.
Her father, Emile Kisler, was an Austrian Jew and a well-known banker there. Her mother, Gertrude Lichtwitz, from Budapest, the capital of Hungary, was a beautiful pianist who often attended high-society banquets. In Heidi's memory, her mother liked perfumes and banquet dresses, which had a great influence on Heidi's subsequent acting career.
At the age of 16, she became interested in self-expression and learned to act. Despite his parents' objections, he gave up his communications major and followed theater director Max Reinhardt to Berlin, Germany.
In 1931, Heidi Rama found a job as a field reporter in the German film and television industry; she later welcomed her first big-screen work" with her first big-screen work, "Money on the Street". The following year, Heidi Rama was invited by the Czechoslovak film to play the heroine of The Haunted, and promised to bring the film to the international market, the only condition being that she had to appear naked.
But the avant-garde Miss Heidi agreed without hesitation. You know, in Europe in 1932, the status and openness of women's status and ideas were far from what they are now.
Thus, in 1933, Heidi Rama entered the film industry in the Austro-Hungarian Empire, and the art film "Haunted" directed by Gustav Machatý premiered in Czechoslovakia, becoming the world's first actress to appear in full nude. However, because of her good face and exquisite figure, she quickly became popular and was also criticized by the audience.
Stills from "Haunted"
Because of "The Haunting", the Austrian arms tycoon Mandel was fascinated by Heidi. In 1934, the two fell in love at first sight at the ball; three months later they were married in lightning; Mandel became Heidi's first husband.
Mandel
After marriage, Mandel desperately collected copies of "The Haunted" and forbade Heidi to enter the film industry again, let alone go out casually, not even the freedom to swim and go to the street, which is undoubtedly equivalent to Heidi's life.
Although Mandel was a Jew, he supported the Nazis and even became the Austrian army supplier of the Nazis' main armaments, and often met to study radio-signal remote-controlled torpedoes and wireless communication jamming technologies. Originally, wireless communication technology was the highest military secret of the country at that time, but Mandel did not shy away from it. When he talked to weapons experts about the technology, he allowed Heidi to observe and even record, which exposed Heidi to many cutting-edge radio technologies.
Although our Miss Heidi was an actress, she was particularly good at math when she was in school, and she still studied communications.
Mandel would also make friends with the Nazis. He often took Heidi to parties with high Nazi officials, and used Heidi's beauty to bring him more arms orders. As a staunch anti-Nazi, Heidi couldn't bear it, and in 1937 Heidi, after quitting the table at a dinner party, she used a drug to faint her attendant maid and jumped out of the window, and fled by train that day to Paris, France overnight, ending the marriage. By the way, the "military secrets" of Nazi wireless communications were also brought to the Allies.

In the same year, Heidi Lamar met Louis Meyer, the owner of the MGM Hollywood company, and entered Hollywood at Meyer's recommendation and signed a 7-year contract with MGM; and changed her stage name: Heidi Rama. Officially began his career as an actor.
Later, he starred in the love suspense film "Cape Wanderer" directed by John Clonwell, in which the image of the dark-haired beauty was created, breaking the tradition of blonde beauty dominating the screen, making Heidi known as "the most beautiful woman in the world" by Hollywood.
In addition, Heidi Rama's acting career has no other remarkable points, and most of the film and television films he shoots have a general response.
She once said that "any girl can be attractive, all you have to do is stand there and look stupid".
Heidi really just "looks stupid", and beneath her beautiful exterior is a supernatural intelligence that is completely incompatible with her.
And what she said: "Smarter than me is not as beautiful as me, prettier than me is not as smart as me" has just begun to kick off.
After the outbreak of World War II, the sea also became a battlefield.
Torpedoes are an important weapon on the battlefield at sea. After the torpedo is launched, the commander guarantees the accuracy of the hit by means of a "wireless signal". At that time, wireless signals could only be transmitted on one channel, and the enemy could easily interfere with electromagnetic noise. How to avoid the interference of the torpedo signal has become a key technical problem that the US military urgently needs to solve.
Heidi hopes to work on a "interference-free wireless signal" technology, so she spends a lot of time researching and developing it.
Heidi realized that by constantly changing the frequency of radio waves, enemy signals could be prevented from interfering; however, if the frequency was constantly changed, we would not be able to receive a valid signal.
At this time, Heidi became acquainted with the gland specialist George Anthel, a German-American composer who wrote film music for Hollywood and began to study the human endocrine. At first Heidi just like he asked how to make her breasts bigger. But later, the topic of the two people changed from glands to weapons.
These two people are really "not doing the right thing."
Anthel proposed that the practice of automatic pianos could be borrowed to achieve the idea of "frequency skipping".
The automatic piano is much like an old-fashioned computer, brought in by reading into coded punched paper. The two then collaborated to develop an anti-jamming communication device that can automatically encode and decode codes.
The device is set up with 88 random channels, just like the 88 buttons of a piano. In August 1942, they developed a "confidential communication system" that realized frequency hopping communication technology, and obtained a U.S. patent. And dedicate this patent to the U.S. government.

When military officers heard that the principle of military weapons came from the piano, they thought it was ridiculous. For various reasons, the patent was shelved. In World War II, the Americans never used frequency hopping technology to attack Nazi warships, and persuaded Heidi that since she loved the United States, she should use her beautiful face to help the government sell war bonds.
Heidi did not shirk, but expressed her patriotic enthusiasm with practical actions, she was actively involved in selling war bonds, she was actively involved in selling war bonds, and she toured the country for the government.
She came up with the idea of "auctioning Heidi's Kiss", setting a record for raising $25 million on a tour ($7 million sold in one day), the equivalent of $350 million in the United States in 2016.
It wasn't until the late 1950s that Heidi's invention was widely used in military computer chips.
In 1985, on the basis of "frequency hopping" technology, an unknown small company in the United States was established in San Diego and quietly developed the CDMA wireless digital communication system. This company is Qualcomm. Qualcomm has become a fortune 500 company in the 21st century, and Heidi, the inventor of its theoretical source, has almost been forgotten.
After World War II, after Heidi Lamar's contract with MGM expired, Heidi first set up a film company herself to try to make a comeback.
In 1949, Heidi made her masterpiece film, directed by Cecil M. In the love film "Overlord Demon" directed by B. Demir, the 36-year-old Heidi plays the sexy but snake-hearted demon Darilla. This is Heidi's only film that is still a bit famous.
On April 10, 1953, Heidi Rama became an American citizen.
In 1958, Heidi Rama announced that she was out of shadow.
In 1966, Heidi Rama published her controversial autobiography, I am fascinated by < >, becoming the first person to expose the privacy of one's lusts. The autobiography depicts many of the privacy of sexual life, and Playboy magazine listed her autobiography as one of the top ten pornographic autobiographies of all time.
In 1967, she closed the production company she founded and settled in Florida.
Heidi Rama had 6 failed marriages in her lifetime.
In her later years, Heidi was immersed in plastic surgery, but unfortunately, the technology was immature at that time, not only failed to return to youth, but in the 40 years after the shadow, Heidi began to degenerate, and even addicted to drugs.
Heidi's life has since been solitary, living alone in an apartment in Florida, USA.
Acquitted after being charged with theft in 1965;
Fined in 1971 for false accusations of rape;
In 1991 he was arrested again on charges of theft.
In 1997, when CDMA-based communication technology began to enter public life, the scientific community remembered Heidi, and the American Electronic Frontier Foundation awarded the "Electronic Borders Fund - Pioneer Award" to Heidi Rama, the first applicant of this patent fifty years ago.
The award recognizes Heidi's contributions to computer communications, and scientists honor Heidi as the mother of CDMA, when she was 83 years old.
Her worth as an inventor is finally recognized by the world.
On January 19, 2000, Heidi was found dead in her bed at home at the age of 86. Police believe she died in her sleep, and the television set at the head of her bed is still on. Her lawyer commented: "For me, she has always been the most perfect movie star. She always walked with her head held high. She is very beautiful. Even in old age, it is so beautiful. ”
In the same year, Heidi Rama was recognized by the World Communications Association as a figure who has made a significant contribution to humanity.
In 2004, Anthony Loder made a documentary, Born Heidi Rama, in honor of his extraordinary mother. As he put it: "Although she has been forgotten by everyone, everything she has done still affects generations of people." ”
Although few people think of this actress who was once beautiful and rebellious when using a mobile phone, Heidi's existence is a miracle, in fact, her beauty and mind have traveled through time and space.
In 2014, Heidi Rama was inducted into the American Inventors Hall of Fame, becoming the only actress in history to be inducted into American Inventions and Technology.
Science magazines have also become fashionable
On November 9, 2015, a 1 minute and 16 seconds animated video was displayed on the Google Search homepage to commemorate Heidi Rama's 101st birthday.
As a woman, she perfectly interprets the true meaning of beauty and intelligence.
It also confirms what she said: "Film is often limited to a certain region and era, but the technology is eternal." ”
