Chapter 333: Abyss Ghost
Speaking of James Cameron, we have to talk about his hobby of diving.
It can be said that the big guy "Card God", if there is no movie shooting, is often diving.
- In both senses, both.
Moreover, what he loves is not the kind of ordinary diving that carries an oxygen tank and dives dozens to more than 100 meters, but deep diving.
- This kind of deep diving is a depth that is difficult for ordinary submarines to reach.
In fact, after the release of "Titanic" in the future, Cameron played a long dive.
This is because although the box office results of Big Boat are extremely brilliant, Cameron's reputation as the "King of Skipping Tickets" can be regarded as completely confirmed.
In the years that followed, he was not very popular with the big Hollywood studios.
There's no way, what if he skips the ticket again?
Before the release of "Titanic", the top management of Fox could be prepared to kill Cameron first and then commit suicide en masse once it fails.
Naturally, the bosses of other production companies will not be unheard.
Anyway, a few years after "Titanic", it is more difficult for Cameron to make a big production.
Of course, with his position, it's no problem to shoot a large-scale production on an average scale.
But the question is, at that time, Cameron was already successful and there was no challenging work, so why did he do it?
"To live is to change the world!"
Although Cameron is not Jobs, he is undoubtedly the most staunch practitioner of this sentence in the film industry.
So, during that time, the god Cameron, who "didn't support the movies he was willing to make, and he was too lazy to make movies that others supported", went diving freely.
He even took the opportunity to dive and made several documentaries about diving himself.
Like "Return to Bismarck", "Deep Sea Volcano", "Ghost of the Abyss", "Deep Sea Alien"......
In those seven or eight years, Cameron almost played all the deep diving.
Although to a certain extent, Cameron is also accumulating and experimenting with 3D technology for the later "Avatar", but to say that he is not entangled in personal interests, Charlotte does not believe it anyway.
In fact, during the preparation of "Titanic", Cameron spent Fox's money with public funds and private money to go to the place where the Titanic sank.
Of course, there are high-sounding reasons -
He wanted to actually shoot the wreckage of the Titanic in the sea and use it directly as a modern exploration scene in the movie.
Moreover, he also calculated the accounts for the executives of Fox -
Completing these shots with the highest level of models and digital effects at the time would cost millions of dollars, and it would be cheaper to let him go there himself.
In this case, Fox, who was calculated by Cameron, could only approve $5o for the great god and allowed him to go to the site of the Titanic's wreck.
And the experience of that investigation was indeed filmed by him for about 15 minutes, and finally edited into the movie "Titanic......
And now, Charlotte suspects that Cameron has encountered some ghosts during this deep-sea expedition.
"And brought them back?"
In his mind, after listening to Charlotte's explanation, Charlize understood what he meant,
"So, do you mean that the people who worked on the crew of "Titanic" were water ghosts?"
When he first met Charlotte, Charlize had heard him tell him about the water ghosts.
And later, in the process of learning spells from him, the girl learned more knowledge, so she was very impressed by the water ghost.
"Those water ghosts, are they the ghosts of the real victims on the Titanic?"
"You can say yes, you can say no. 」
Glancing at Cameron, who was frowning and reminiscing, Charlotte continued to explain to Charlize,
"Just like Alexis did in the beginning, people will become ghosts because of the way they die, but the probability of this is quite low. In contrast, ghosts born because of people's hearts are more likely. 」
"A ghost born out of a human heart!?"
"That's right!"
Charlotte's tone was a little helpless,
"You know, after the sinking of the Titanic in 1912, all kinds of ghost legends about it emerged like weeds. In this case, people who hear the story will instinctively mystify the shipwreck—"
"So, you mean, people's inner fantasies gave birth to the water ghosts on the Titanic!?"
Charlize couldn't believe the explanation given by Charlotte,
"It's like people are bored and want to create ghosts to die. 」
"It's pretty much the same, otherwise how could horror movies be so popular?"
Charlotte said with a wry smile,
"I've only recently realised that in a film, deliberately creating fear to scare the audience isn't actually the most magical—it's the object of the audience's own fear that works best. 」
"The object of your own fear?"
"Yes. 」
Charlotte explains,
"In ancient times, in the dark ages when danger and ghosts were rampant, people needed heroes in order to fight ghosts, so heroes could borrow power from people's hearts, which can be said to be one of the sources of magic."
"In the modern world, the ghosts are gradually disappearing, but because of the peaceful life, people's demand for excitement is increasing day by day. Now, they are meant to be heroes, so ghosts need to be born. 」
"This kind of anode and yin is another factor that causes a large number of ghosts in Hollywood—"
"It's not just because Hollywood, as the entertainment center of the world, brings together the dark side of the world's hearts, but also because people have a need for ghosts in their hearts. 」
「......」
At this time, the thoughts in Charlize's heart can no longer be described as dumbfounded.
She felt that Charlotte's words seemed to be summed up as "ghosts are the embodiment of people's desire to die."
This conclusion made the girl feel a little ridiculous, but she didn't know how to refute it, and even some of her agreement in her heart......
Fortunately, Cameron, who had been reminiscing for a long time at this time, finally spoke again,
"I went to the sinking site of the Titanic, and I took the Russian research ship Mir. After that expedition, I did get sick once, also with a bad cold, but it shouldn't have anything to do with the current situation, right?"
"I don't know. ”
Charlotte shrugged on the surface, but said to Charlize in her heart,
"That's how it should be. The ones who are haunting this crew are water ghosts - although I don't know if they are really the undead of the Titanic, or if they originate from the fantasies of the do-gooders. 」
"Really?"
Charlize still doesn't understand,
"But according to you, if it's a water ghost, why do all the people in the crew catch a cold? shouldn't they be drowned?"
"Because most of the people who died on the Titanic were not drowned!"
