Chapter 641: The God of Poverty Is Here

This kind of bad luck ghost is like bad luck in itself. You don't know when it will appear or when it will disappear.

To some extent, it can be said to be bad luck itself.

After all, luck is something that will never disappear.

In particular, there is a lot of probability in this world. People are always as afraid of bad luck as they are of good luck.

From this perspective, bad luck naturally possesses the fear needed by ghosts, and even has a hint of the immortality of gods due to the characteristics of the world itself.

This is why the ghosts of bad luck appear.

It is not like the ghosts Charlotte has encountered in the past, which are the aggregation of the dark side of the human heart, but a pure human heart's helpless reaction to this inexplicable world.

It appears out of nowhere and disappears for no reason.

In the East, magic masters have long recognized the existence of this special ghost and named it the Poor God.

——That is, the poor god in Japanese mythology.

——After all, the easiest manifestation of bad luck is losing money.

Because the Poor God itself has the characteristics of a god and the uncontrollable characteristics of luck, all magicians are unwilling to deal with it.

This is not because the poor god has any special attack methods.

In fact, this is a kind of ghost that is not aggressive, not even conscious, and only has basic reactions similar to those of a remnant soul.

But because it itself represents bad luck, basically all actions that directly attack it will result in various unfortunate failures.

Attacking it is like spitting at the sky, and in the end you can only suffer it.

For a long time, the magicians were unable to do anything about it.

——It is precisely because of this that when Charlotte learned that Roman Polanski was contaminated with the aura of the poor god, she had no idea of ​​​​intervening.

However, now that Johnny Depp, an acquaintance of his, is also haunted by the god of poverty, Charlotte can no longer ignore it.

In particular, Depp has now brought the poor god to the crew of "Pirates of the Caribbean".

"If we don't make the god of poverty disappear soon, this project will be affected by bad luck, which will cause trouble!"

Charlotte sighed helplessly,

"If I had known that something like this would happen, I should have checked the status of all the crew members in advance."

However, by now, this is only an afterthought.

Fortunately, Charlotte knew that after avoiding the poor god for a long time, the magicians finally developed a way to fight against it.

——That is, "transfer"!

Although many of the theories in Feng Shui are made up by magicians to defraud money, the technology of transshipment is real.

However, this method will only work if the target is actually possessed by a bad-luck ghost like a poor god.

——For ordinary bad luck, luck is meaningless at all.

In fact, although Charlotte knew the method of transshipment, she had never had the opportunity to use it.

After all, even among the rare ghosts, the poor god is an extremely rare existence.

Just like the dragon-slaying technique, before you can use it, you must first find the target.

Therefore, Charlotte was still very excited about being able to really have a "transportation".

However, he was also nervous at the same time.

——Because there is a price to pay for transshipment.

This price is not too high. In most cases, it can be paid by consuming mana.

However, as the incarnation of luck, it will not be that simple if the Poor God disappears - he will leave behind some surprises after all.

——After the poor god is exorcised, some accidents, big or small, will inevitably happen around the person it possesses, and the time may range from a few days to a few months after the exorcism.

This can be said to be a sign of the real departure of the poor god, but it can also be said to be a test for the poor god to leave.

"It's like passing ninety-nine and eighty-one difficult tests before you can obtain the true scripture!"

Charlotte sighed in her heart,

I feel that the crew of "Pirates of the Caribbean" will definitely encounter trouble in the future.

However, he couldn't help but do it.

After all, if you do this, you may only face a few surprises;

But if there is no need for a transfer to make the poor god disappear, then as long as Depp exists, the crew of "Pirates of the Caribbean" may have frequent accidents.

——As for temporarily changing the protagonist, Charlotte has never thought about it.

After all, he is a person who is proficient in magic after all. What's the point of retreating from ghosts without a fight?

Especially if there are ways to deal with it.

Besides, if the transfer can be successful, it will not be without benefits——

Apart from anything else, the fact that she would receive a bonus of good luck for several years was enough to make Charlotte's heart flutter.

"However, the transfer of the god of poverty from Polanski to Depp is still a bit strange!"

While planning the transfer plan, Charlotte was thinking about the doubts in this matter.

After all, as far as he knew, the god of poverty, like bad luck, was not the kind of being that would constantly shift.

——It comes and goes without a trace. This is its characteristic.

"This kind of characteristics that are transferred from one celebrity to another is a bit like the evil of original sin that I encountered before..."

Charlotte thought to herself.

To be on the safe side, he thought he should investigate...

**********

Johnny Depp was unaware of Charlotte's plan.

He just found that filming with Charlotte again had a lot more rules.

——Although Charlotte had enacted some strange rules on the crew when they collaborated on "Sleepy Hollow" before, but after all, they were not many.

But this time during the filming of "Pirates of the Caribbean", the number of such strange rules increased exponentially.

——Even before each day of filming, there are special regulations for the layout and use of the actors' dressing rooms.

It can be said to be an advanced stage of obsessive-compulsive disorder.

But because of Charlotte's status as a well-known director and producer, everyone had to listen to him.

Of course, Charlotte is also very plausible——

"The movie we are shooting this time is related to water! - In Hollywood, water represents bad luck, so we naturally have to be more careful!"

--All right! This is true.

Since "Waterworld", it has become a private consensus in Hollywood that water-related movies are prone to bad luck.

Even the box office hit of "Titanic" did not change everyone's views.

——After all, before it was released, "Titanic" almost bankrupted Fox.

According to the executives of many film and television companies in Hollywood, the success of the company was entirely due to the toughness of Fox.

After all, Fox is a company that has a long history of stepping into and out of pitfalls——

In terms of investment amount, "Cleopatra" in the 1960s was a sinkhole in Hollywood at the time, causing Fox to lose everything.

But in the end Fox came through.

And later "Star Wars", which was originally invested and distributed by Fox——

Now everyone knows that this is a legendary film series, but before it was released that year, except for George Lucas himself, most people, including many actors on the crew, thought it was definitely a scam...

But Fox just invested.

Fox is a company that has always had good fortunes.

They are the vanguard of Hollywood blockbusters and are particularly good at playing this kind of Russian roulette.

Just because they can fall into a big pit and climb out again many times does not mean that others can do the same...
