After the grand handover ceremony, the Titanic will be towed by a tugboat to Hawaii.
There is the scheduled shooting site of the shipwreck play. The reason why it is in Hawaii rather than the coast of the United States is simple, because the tugboat is too cumbersome.
It takes 65 days to tow the ship to Hawaii by tugboat. If it is towed to the west coast of the United States, it takes 100 days, which is a little too high.
In fact, it was not impossible to shoot in the sea near China, but because boss Jia planned a huge scheme, which can only be carried out in the United States, he chose to shoot in the Hawaiian Islands.
So the question is, what kind of plan did boss Jia plan?
First of all, as early as March, when boss Jia and 20th Century Fox just decided to build a real Titanic for filming, a domestic newspaper in the United States quickly caught the news.
But their news is not comprehensive. It is only described that 21st century fox is planning an unprecedented large-scale film jointly with super director James Cameron.
The direct investment in this film reached a staggering 240 million US dollars, becoming one of the highest investment films in the world.
The news was quickly reprinted by a large number of media, and then bombed in front of all Americans, making many Americans know such a news whether they like it or not.
Originally, after the news broke out, the boom passed. After all, the people are forgetful and can't stir up too much trouble.
But the problem is that the major news media have not given up the news. Many media are constantly guessing what the film is going to be made?
Whether it is a gunfight film, a science fiction film, or a superhero film, as for literary films and romantic films, they were automatically rejected by these media.
Nonsense, a literary or romantic film, as for the investment of $240 million? Isn't that bullshit?
While there was constant discussion about the type of film with high investment, a media suddenly broke out in May that the film was actually a love film.
This is very magical.
Therefore, with the exposure of this news, the American people have to be affected by a news storm. At the same time, when they know this news, the people are also very curious. How can a mere love film cost 240 million US dollars?
Is this love movie made on the moon?
What is the answer to this question? Of course, the best way is to ask the producer or film director directly!
Originally, both the producer and James Cameron have always avoided this question directly, never answered it positively and deliberately created a sense of mystery.
As a result, at a reception, Jon Landau, a producer, accidentally drank too much. When asked by a reporter, he nodded drunk and affirmed that it was a love film.
Then Jon Landau added, "it's still a disaster movie!"
Love movie + disaster movie!!
This news once again caused various heated discussions in the media. There is no way. The film type combination of love + disaster may be very common in future generations, but in 1994, it was definitely a very novel film type.
Then people began to discuss, which disaster will be filmed and what kind of love story will there be?
For a few months, in July, an internal document of 20th Century Fox company suddenly leaked. Although this document did not show many details of the film, the name of the film was clearly displayed.
Titanic
Good guy, it's actually a movie about Titanic. It's a movie about a sunken ship!
The news once again exploded the whole entertainment news page. Although I don't know how the news exploded, the news actually appeared on the front page of all entertainment magazines, and then everyone knew that a disaster film shooting Titanic was about to appear.
Then, various news media and magazines began to popularize the deeds of the Titanic. At the same time, TV stations also began to broadcast various documentaries about the Titanic, and then what are the underwater ruins of the Titanic, search for treasure and make a fortune, as well as the largest blue sapphire and Ocean Star in history, The news that the Titanic sank to the bottom of the sea.
It is said that if the ocean star can be obtained, it can sell for at least $300 million, because this gem is bigger than the African star gem on the crown of the queen of England.
Under such publicity, coupled with the Titanic incident, it is already full of all kinds of mystery and legend, which is quite in line with the public's appetite.
So in fact, the Titanic incident, which was originally known to less than 10% of people in the United States, has become well known.
Then, in December, the American media suddenly broke a shocking news, that is, when the American satellite took pictures over China, it unexpectedly found a huge ship, which was the Titanic, which had been silent for a long time. Even the president was shocked by the news.
Well, no matter whether the news shocked the president or not, the American people were shocked by the news, because according to the conclusive reports of some lace magazines, the Titanic was the Titanic that was silent at the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean. It was a sunken ship salvaged from the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean by Chinese people at a high price and a large amount of manpower.
The purpose of the Chinese is very simple. It is to get the wealth in the Titanic. The most important thing is the Blue Ocean Star, because it is said that this ocean star has magical energy, which can make all ships get the protection of the sea god and win invincible in the sea.
The reason why the United States was able to defeat Fusang was because it had the shelter of the ocean star.
Well, although the ocean star has sunk at the bottom of the sea at this time, it is still blessing the Americans because it sank on the American ship.
As long as you think about this news casually and independently, you can find many ridiculous logical loopholes in this news, but the problem is that this kind of news is the favorite of ordinary people.
Just as millions of people in the United States insisted that the earth was flat until 2020, in 1994, a considerable number of Americans believed that this was the Titanic salvaged by the Chinese from the seabed. Their purpose was to take away the heart of the ocean. This is the wealth of the American people. I unanimously asked the U.S. government to take back the ship.
People's mood was so intense that they even surrounded the White House for a time. Finally, the American government had to explain that the ship was not salvaged from the seabed at all, but an imitation of the Titanic built by the shipyard of Huaxia entrusted by 20th Century Fox company.
And this ship is the wealth of the United States. It will officially set sail on December 20 and return to Hawaii, so don't worry, these things are ours!
