I’m in Hollywood

"Cameron and the "Titanic" producers have a strong dispute and jumped into the sea."

"The Titanic project was out of control, and Eric Williams personally went to Rosarito. Cameron was under pressure to try to jump out of the sea."

"Eric Williams and James Cameron Rosarito set up physical conflicts and pushed each other into the sea. The Titanic project is completely stranded."

"..."

Because there was no image data on the scene, there were many people who were rumored to be rumored. In the following days, the incidents of Cameron’s jump into the sea in the US media became more and more outrageous. The clarification of the Firefly Group’s public relations department did not inhibit the rumors. Spread, more and more media reporters began to gather in Rosarito, Mexico.

In desperation, Eric simply asked ABC to send reporters to the studio to record some of the crew's filming footage. Although it did not completely suppress the spread of rumors, those unusually absurd remarks were not made after the related video was played. broken.

The second day that Eric rushed to Rosarito, the digital domain CEO Stan Winston also rushed over and began to discuss the post-production issues of the film.

Because "Titanic" will use a lot of very new special effects production methods, according to the development ideas that Eric has determined when setting up the digital field, these new special effects technologies will be specially sorted out and, if possible, patented. Although many special effects were produced under the whimsy of Cameron, Cameron, who was completely immersed in the movie, did not care about this after receiving Eric's sufficient budget support.

It was another morning shot. At this time, Eric had been in the Rosarito studio for five days. There was no repressive atmosphere under the budget constraints. Although Cameron occasionally showed some violent, but that kind of seems The breath of the edge of the eruption disappeared at any time, and the interpersonal relationship of the crew from top to bottom was also a lot more.

At lunch time, Eric is dining with the Cameron and others in the restaurant, and Jon Landau walks in hastily.

After a meal, I sat down on the table at Eric's side. Jon Landau said to Eric: "Eric, are you going back in the afternoon?"

"Yeah, the things here are almost over. I can't help you if I stay here."

Jon Landau nodded and hesitated for a moment, reminding: "I think it's best to be careful when you go back."

"Well?" Eric raised his head in confusion.

Jon Landau said: "I heard that there have been several robberies against reporters outside, and even two unlucky guys have been interrupted by ribs. You know, their professional shooting equipment. It’s very expensive. Moreover, I just talked to Victor who is responsible for the security of the studio. He said that there are indeed some unidentified people around the film. So, you know.”

Eric nodded seriously. He has a clear understanding of the state of law and order in Mexico. The country has only more than 100,000 regular troops, but the number of illegal armed forces led by drug dealers is no less than the regular army. At present, it is still better. In the next few years, with the further deterioration of law and order, Mexico has even been designated by the United Nations as a 'war state' with the same level as Somalia and Yugoslavia. Coupled with Rosarito's proximity to the Mexican-American border, the security situation in the vicinity is even worse. At the suggestion of the security team, Eric has not stepped out of this studio in the past few days.

Cameron heard the words of Jon Landau, and said the same face: "Eric, really can't, you can go back by helicopter. Well, although it is troublesome, it is definitely safer."

Mexico is no more than the United States. Helicopter-like flying tools are basically in the hands of the official department. It is very difficult for ordinary people to obtain flight permits. Eric listens and smiles and shakes his head. He said: "There is no need to be so motivated, from here. Only 30 kilometers to the border, the car is going faster, half an hour is coming, and the helicopter does not necessarily have my team safety."

Eric is not arrogant. The 23 bodyguards who came with him this time are basically former Marines with rich practical experience. Although the five SUVs he took when he arrived did not reach To the president's car level, the facilities are complete, but in terms of security protection, they are not lost to the other side. As long as they do not encounter the violent fire attack, even if they are temporarily trapped, they can fully support the car with the protection of the car.

After having lunch, and chatting for a while, Eric said goodbye to the crowd and left the Rosarito studio with a female assistant.

Still on the highway along the coast of California, after the car was running smoothly, Eric looked down at the latest version of the "The Royal Casino of 007" from Los Angeles. Kelly, sitting next to him, accidentally saw the rearview mirror. The team followed a few small tails, remembering the reminder of Jon Landau at the restaurant at noon, slammed Eric in uneasiness and pointed to the rear.

Eric hasn't answered yet. Carter Moen, who is sitting in the front passenger's co-pilot, said: "Ms. Haines, it's okay, it's the reporter's car, they might want to go back with us."

"Oh, it turned out to be like this," Kelly smiled, a little embarrassed about her suspicious doubts.

The team quickly passed through the town of Rosarito and continued to move forward. Eric watched a few pages of the script, looked up and took a look at the neck, and chatted with Kelly, and was about to bow down to see the script, the front row. Carter Moen suddenly pressed his earphones and whispered a few words in a whisper, then turned his head and said: "Eric, in front, there may be some conditions."

Eric looked up in confusion: "Well?"

Kelly was sensitive to grabbing Eric’s sleeves and her face was tense.

“A container truck parked in the front about a kilometer away, blocking the way,” Carter Moen explained, adding: “The old-fashioned approach.”

Eric looked at the window. Although it was a four-lane highway, there was a fence of cement stone piers in the middle of the road. A container truck could almost block half of the half lane.

Eric knew that he had no time for ink scares, and he did not hesitate. He said calmly and calmly: "I don't understand these, you can handle it."

Carter Moen nodded, and the two men fastened their seat belts and deployed them quickly in the tone of the headphones. They took a pistol from the storage compartment and handed it to the driver next to them. Then they took out a semi-automatic rifle and played with them. stand up.

Eric took a deep breath and noticed the nervous look of Kelly next to her. She patted her shoulder and appeased: "Do not worry. It's okay. Even if there is any trouble, within ten minutes of the border." Someone will come over."

"Well," Kelly calmed down, holding Eric's hand, but the other hand reached into her bag and touched the phone. After thinking about it, she realized that the phone could not be called in Mexico. I have to give up.

In a simple conversation, the speed of the entire team suddenly increased. A few seconds later, Carter Moen turned to Eric and said, "Everyone is seated."

Immediately, the front of the team, a bang, a loud noise came.

Eric sat on the left side of the rear compartment and felt that it was not a gunshot, and he looked puzzledly toward the window glass.

The foremost SUV has slammed the cement stone pier in the middle of the road into a gap, forcibly changing lanes and entering the other side of the road. Immediately, the second and third SUVs followed suit. In the bumps, Eric’s fourth SUV also changed lanes, and the concrete stone pier that stood still smashed, and a harsh rubbing sound was heard in the ear. .

In the front row, Carter Moen holding a semi-automatic rifle looked alertly at the right window, Eric regained his attention from the bumps, followed by looking to the right, a blue container truck parked in the center of the right lane. At the moment of passing by, Eric also noticed the horrified look of two Mexican men standing next to the truck.

The team has surpassed the container trucks and has not chosen to change lanes again. Fortunately, there are few vehicles on this road in the sea, and even if there are several oncoming cars, they can easily stagger.

Although no one was caught up, Carter Moen remained vigilant and kept communicating with the bodyguards of several cars. After about ten minutes, the towns on the border appeared in the eyes of all, all the talents. Relax.

Kelly took a deep breath and looked at Eric next to him. She looked at Carter Moen, who was unpacking her weapon into a backpack. After thinking about it, she said, "I just saw ...maybe, is it a misunderstanding?"

Eric remembered the expressions of the two Mexican men he had just seen, and he had some doubts in his heart. However, he did not question the meaning of Carter Moen’s judgment. The son of the daughter would not sit down, and there would be no problem with caution.

Carter Moen collected the weapons and passed through the rearview mirror: "Not a misunderstanding, Ms. Haines, if you look closely, you should be able to notice that the guy wearing the blue jacket is holding a micro-rush in his arms. Also, the doors of the containers are obviously open. If they really stopped because they had a breakdown, they would never do this."

Kelly still wonders: "Why?"

Carter Moen suddenly changed the subject, said to Kelly: "Mrs Haines, do you know what is the most important thing to drive in Mexico at night?"

"Ok?"

Carter Moen said: "The most important thing is to meet the red light, you can squat, don't stop. Because you only have to stop for a few seconds, there will always be a robber with a gun. You have robbed you out of the window. The situation we just encountered is similar to this situation. If you stop, I promise you that dozens of militants will soon jump out of the container, and we will be in trouble. ""

Kelly looked at the rearview mirror. Carter Moen looked serious and looked at Eric. Seeing Eric also nodded and patted the chest with a sigh of relief. "I also heard about Mexico. It’s quite messy, but it’s too crazy. Aren’t they afraid of causing a strong suppression in the main house?”

Carter Moen said: "Really, they are really not afraid. This country is already rotten, it is hard to return, and it is difficult to resume normal social order."

Eric heard that Carter Moen said this, but he also remembered some things. In the memory, a later Mexican president, Kadelon, tried to take a tough approach to crack down on crimes. The result was counterproductive. Not only did he not achieve his goal in the past few years. On the contrary, it has caused more intense social unrest, and more than 20,000 people have been killed and killed by the fish.

Recalling this information, Eric suddenly felt that he was still too big this time. His goal was too big. It is better not to come to Mexico anymore.

Crossing the town next to the border, you can already see the customs entrance. Eric felt that the vehicle suddenly slowed down and looked up. When he saw Carter Moen shaking his window and handing a black backpack to a middle-aged man outside the window, he didn't care. He had to go through customs and definitely want to take these. The contraband is lost.

Mexico is a ban on guns, but in fact, because of the proximity to the United States, coupled with social chaos, the ban is almost no, just entered the country a few days ago, when preparing these things, Carter Moen accidentally turned to Ai Rick revealed that there are probably more than 200 gun dealers in this small border town.

As the team joined the inbound and outbound traffic, Kelly relaxed completely, remembering something, and suddenly said: "Right, Eric, isn't there a few reporters driving behind us, they won't have anything?"

Eric forgot to do this. Looking at Carter in front, Carter asked a few words to the headphones and turned and said: "Nothing, they are all behind."

"That's fine, though," Kelly looked at Eric and said, "Maybe, after going back, the media will be busy again."

Eric also knows what Kelly means. In the face of what has just happened, it is a little smarter. Those guys will definitely do something.

Sure enough, on the day of Eric’s return to Los Angeles, some Evening News appeared on the news that 'Eric Williams was hijacked in Mexico’, and with a lot of illustrations, the container trucks in the middle of the road were The concrete barriers that hit the mess, the striking scratches on the SUV, etc., under the clever illustration, the whole thing was thrilled by the media rendering.

It’s really lively. Eric is the world’s richest man with tens of billions of dollars. The influence is self-evident. Of course, the Mexican government is not willing to do anything to undermine its international image and respond quickly. It was only a misunderstanding, and even condemned Eric’s car damage to public facilities and demanded compensation for the damaged concrete guardrail.

However, this rebuttal and clarification did not play any role, because the two Mexican male identities that appeared next to the container trucks were quickly excavated by the vast media. Both of them were carrying the case and even A gang who was also wanted by the main government of Mexico.

So everything became more lively.

The mexican government is no longer asking for any compensation. It is just a matter of support, publishing some official articles that will bring criminals to justice as soon as possible, and then succumb to it.

Relative to the excitement of the outside world, Eric has no time to pay attention to this episode. At least, this incident has covered the wind caused by Cameron’s jumping into the sea. He just handed over the media to the Firefly's public relations team and continued to work on his own.
