Chapter 279: The Horror Crew

"Listen to me, Ruth, you will be out of danger, you will live, you will have many children, and watch them grow up, and you will live in peace, and finally rest in a warm bed, not here tonight, not in this cold water."

In the back row of the theater, the sobbing sound kept sounding, and when the film came here, Jack said something like this again, in fact, it was already obvious that the actor could not escape the catastrophe.

A splendid love has just bloomed and is about to wither......

"Winning a ticket to the Titanic is the best and luckiest thing of my life, thank God for letting me know you! Ruth, you must do me a favor and promise me not to give up no matter what happens next, no matter how desperate I am! Promise me, Ruth! Never give up on your promise to me! ”

"I promise you, Jack!"

"Never give up, Ruth......"

"I won't give up, Jack, I'll never give up!" The hands of the two men were clasped together.

If there were still people who had the illusion of luck, when the rescue ship appeared, all the luck was gone.

Ruth broke her hand and clenched it, "I'll never give up!" I promise you! I will never give up! ”

She struggled towards the hope of life as Jack requested, and the chant sounded again, ethereal with sorrow, and the frozen Jack slowly sank, in a close-up, and finally sank to the bottom of the sea, completely disappearing.

The picture is always more impactful than the words, and the love rendered in two hours seems to be for the sake of life and death at this moment, the poor boy and the rich girl, the theme of never declining on the screen, was interpreted to the extreme by James Cameron with the help of the sinking of a big ship.

The sound of crying in the theater is getting louder and louder, this scene is very clichΓ©, but it has a power that penetrates people's hearts.

The prelude to the Irish whistle sounds, followed by Celine Dion's singing, the all-too-familiar "My Heart Is Eternal", a song that accompanies the ship destined to become popular all over the world.

The singing stopped, the subtitles disappeared, the theater regained its light, applause rang out like a tide, and everyone stood up and clapped their palms vigorously to thank the crew at the front for such a wonderful film.

Seeing the enthusiastic response of the ordinary audience at the scene, Duke was completely relieved of the movie, and all that remained was to wait, waiting for the film to cut through the wind and waves, and waiting for his share of profits under the supervision of his team of accountants!

It's a great work, and it's just as great!

As the premiere came to an end, the evening had just begun, with Paramount Pictures, Twentieth Century Fox and the expanded Duke's studio celebrating a pie at the Highland Hotel, which was also attended by a large number of celebrities.

This is also for the sake of propaganda and momentum.

As soon as he entered the hotel, Duke received a call from New Zealand, discussed with Charles Rowan for a while, and when he walked into the banquet hall a little late, he went straight to James Cameron's place, had a drink with the tyrant on the set, and then sent a few polite congratulations.

But that's about it.

Everyone in Hollywood knows that James Cameron has a bad temper and is notoriously difficult to get along with, both at work and in life, and although Duke invested $50 million at a critical moment, there is only a working relationship between them.

"Hey, Leo."

Finding Leonardo DiCaprio, Duke gently patted him on the shoulder, "Are you ready to become a teenage idol all over the world?" ”

"Duke,"

The two kept in touch, and Leonardo was not polite, "You're kidding me again." ”

"Girls all over the world are going crazy about you."

With a casual reply, Duke turned to Leonardo's other side, "Won't you introduce me, Leo?" ”

It was a tall woman with curly blond hair, dressed in a fitted white tact-giped evening gown with a sparkling diamond necklace around her neck, and when she stood still, she looked like an old-fashioned English lady, and she herself was in excellent shape, by no means as plump as she seemed on the screen.

Without waiting for Leonardo's introduction, she took the initiative to extend her hand to Duke, "Hello, Director Rosenberg." I'm Kate Winslet, call me Kate. ”

"Hello, Kate." Duke shook her hand gently, "You can call me Duke." ”

"It's a pleasure to meet you, Duke."

"I'm glad to meet you, too."

After the two finished greeting, Leonardo DiCaprio asked for champagne from the waiter, and the three of them had a drink together, Leonardo was very smart, found a reason casually, and turned around and went somewhere else.

"I've heard Leo say that."

Nodding to the people passing by to greet him, Duke quickly found a common topic, "You suffered a lot during the shooting?" ”

"yes, a lot!"

Speaking of this, a hint of complaint appeared on Kate Winslet's face, "I've been making movies since '93, and I've never been in such a horrible crew." ”

"Horror?" Duke was deliberately puzzled.

Kate Winslet took the initiative to walk towards the resting place, and said to Duke next to her as she walked, "Yes, it's terrifying, and I once wondered if I would break down." ”

Winslet sat at a table, and Duke asked for champagne from the waitress, and the two continued their conversation as they drank.

"I'm sure you've heard of James Cameron's bad reputation."

This is a well-known thing in Hollywood, Cameron himself never cared, and Kate Winslet did not scruple either, "The tyrant on the set can't describe his temper at all, and accidents keep happening during filming, and the most terrifying thing is ......"

When facing a woman who talks a lot, being a qualified listener is the best choice, so Duke always looks like a serious listener.

"There was an accident during the shoot and I almost drowned in an artificial lake!" Kate Winslet shook her head, "Then I got pneumonia and spent a whole week in a hospital bed. In the future, I never want to work with James Cameron again. ”

"Kate," Duke shook her hand gently, "Listening to you say that, it's not easy to persevere, you must be a strong girl." ”

"Thank you." Kate Winslet raised her glass to him, took a sip, squeezed her eyes, and said playfully, "Because I'm not the only one who is unlucky, I can always find mental balance." ”

Duke laughed, "Self-soothing." ”

Kate Winslet shrugged, "I really need to comfort myself, especially when I see James Cameron also unlucky, my psyche is more balanced." ”

"He's unlucky?" Duke was a little curious and asked cooperatively, "Did anything happen?" ”

"You don't know as an investor?"

Seeing Duke shaking his head, Kate Winslet leaned in a little closer, and said mysteriously, "When I went to sea to shoot, James Cameron severely reprimanded a camera assistant, who probably endured his temper and poisoned the crew's catering that night, including Cameron, many people were poisoned, fortunately, the camera assistant was a stimulant type drug, and they were only in the hospital for a few days." ”

"It's really not easy for this film to survive until it is released." Duke sighed with emotion, "There have been so many accidents. ”

"It's not easy!" Kate Winslet couldn't agree more with Duke's words, "By the end of the shoot, everyone was on the verge of breaking down. ”

She pulled out a smile, "Actually, we all know that director Cameron is under the pressure of a huge investment, but we are not happy either. ”

"Hmm." Duke nodded.

Kate Winslet continued, "The investment in the film is so huge, if it fails...... Sorry, I didn't mean anything else......"

"It's okay." Duke made a gesture to continue.

"The impact on us is also very big." Kate Winslet added, "Especially for me and Leo, there will definitely be a huge setback in our acting careers. ”

Duke agrees with Winslet's words, such a big production failure has no impact on the careers of the two leading actors, is that possible?

"So......" Kate Winslet sighed, "I've been under a lot of pressure. ”

"Stress needs to be vented, otherwise it will collapse if it accumulates." Duke thought for a moment and said, "I have a bottle of red wine from the fifties, which can make people forget all their worries, are you interested in tasting it?" ”

Kate Winslet couldn't understand what she had been living with since she was sixteen, and she deliberately asked, "Could it be Helo. Why? ”

"I don't touch anything that has to do with addiction."

Duke smiled and shook her head, Winslet's face was less than a foot away, she blew lightly to this side, and said quite confidently, "I'm going to make men addicted......"

"That's my choice." Duke had already grabbed Kate Winslet's hand, and seeing that she had no intention of breaking free, he continued, "I'm happy to be addicted too. ”

Fifteen minutes later, Duke and Kate Winslet had already walked into the hotel suite, and as for the red wine and something, they had already left it behind.

"Beloved, you are God's gift to the world."

Pinching Winslet's chin, Duke looked at her, "Do you know how excited I was when I saw the footage of the painting?" ”

"Do you want to paint?" She asked, tilting her head.

"Of course!"

Duke was interested, quickly called for a sketchpad and brush, and deliberately dragged a sofa chair to the center of the suite's living room, while he sat opposite.

Kate Winslet, who had been prepared for a long time, stood in front of Duke, unzipped her back generously, and took off her dress and underwear.

"My Ruth." Duke admired the young and beautiful body, "Can we start?" ”

Kate Winslet lay on the sofa chair and posed in the movie, but unfortunately the opposite is not a professional painter, Duke didn't paint a few strokes, threw the bad portrait on the ground, and then walked over and pounced on Kate Winslet's smooth and plump body. R1152
