演讲稿

And you know, along the way in this journey of discovery, I learned a lot. I learned a lot about science. But I also learned a lot about leadership. Now you think director has got to be a leader, you know, leader of, captain of the ship, and all that sort of thing.
你知道，在发现的旅途中，我学到了很多。不仅仅是科学知识，还学到了很多关于领导力的东西。很多人以为作为导演，就一定具有很高的领导力，就像船长带领整艘船一样。
I didn't really learn about leadership until I did these expeditions. Because I had to, at a certain point, say, "What am I doing out here? Why am I doing this? What do I get out of it?" We don't make money at these damn shows, you know, we barely break even. There is no fame in it. People sort of think I went away between Titanic and Avatar and was buffing my nails someplace, you know, sitting at the beach. Made all these films, made all these documentary films, you know, for a very limited audience.
但我却是从这些探险中学到如何带领团队的。因为我必须得学会。有时候我会问自己，“我为什么会在这里？为什么要做这件事？我从中得到了什么？”我们并没有从这些纪录片中赚钱，甚至差点破产。我也没有赚到名声。很多人以为我在《泰坦尼克号》之后《阿凡达》之前就一直躺在沙滩边上韬光养晦。这些纪录片其实只有很少的观众。
No fame, no glory, no money. What are you doing? You're doing it for the task itself, for the challenge--and the ocean is the most challenging environment there is, for the thrill of discovery, and for that strange bond that happens when a small group of people form a tightly knit team. Because we would do these things with 10-12 people working for years at a time. Sometimes at sea for 2-3 months at a time.
没有名声，没有荣耀，没有利润。我在做什么？你只是为了任务本身，为了挑战——海洋是现存最具挑战性的环境；为了发现的兴奋；也为了一种奇怪的关系，这发生在一个由很少人组成的紧密团队中。我们10到12个人在一起工作了很多年做这些事情。有时要在海里一起工作2到3个月。
And in that bond, you realize that the most important thing is the respect that you have for them and that they have for you, that you've done a task that you can't explain to someone else. When you come back to the shore and you say, We had to do this, and the fiber optic, and the attenuation, and this and that, all the technology of it, and the difficulty, the human performance aspects of working at sea, you can't explain it to people. It's that thing that maybe cops have, or people in combat that have gone through something together and they know they can never explain it. Creates a bond, creates a bond of respect.
在那种关系中，我发现最重要的东西就是尊重。你尊重他们，他们也尊重你，每个人做的工作都无法向其他人解释。当你从岸边回来的时候，你说，我们不得不这样做，光纤眼、钝化、这个、那个，所有的技术、困难和在海边表演的各方面，你没法跟大家说清楚。这很像警察经历的那种事情或是格斗中人们经历的，他们知道他们解释不清。创建一种关系，创建一种尊重关系。

名人简介：
人物评价
詹姆斯·卡梅隆舍得花钱，不惜代价追求最极致的视觉效果，作品富有想像力和震撼力。创造影史票房最高记录。在每一篇详尽描述詹姆斯·卡梅隆生平的文章里，几乎都要不可避免地使用“恶名昭著”这个词——没错，他在拍摄地是个苟求、专横的“暴君”；在家庭中是个不会体贴并且见异思迁的丈夫；在好莱坞同行看来，卡梅隆是一个偏执狂和烧钱的机器。然而在很多普通影迷眼里，这些指责完全无关紧要，它们不是鸡蛋里挑骨头就是出于嫉妒的恶意攻击，世界上只有一个詹姆斯·卡梅隆，那就是大英雄詹姆斯·卡梅隆、大天才詹姆斯·卡梅隆、无以伦比，无所不能的大导演詹姆斯·卡梅隆。
无疑，詹姆斯·卡梅隆是二十世界最引人注目的导演之一，他曾经两度创造电影投资的最高纪录，拍摄过一部世界上有史以来最卖座的影片，平了一部影片获得奥斯卡奖数目的纪录，并且每一部影片都为以后的电影树立了技术的标杆。在说起詹姆斯·卡梅隆的时候，人们不免要提到另一位杰出的商业片导演斯蒂文·斯皮尔伯格，能跟这位二十世纪的电影巨人相提并论，本身就说明了卡梅隆在人们心目中的崇高地位。

跟他合作过《泰坦尼克号》的凯特·温斯莱特曾坦言，如果没有一大笔片酬，那么她将不打算再跟卡梅隆合作。她承认卡梅隆是个好人，但脾气太差了。有人甚至描述说，“跟卡梅隆一起工作简直是场噩梦。”这样的人际关系让很多人跟卡梅隆有过短暂合作后避之不及。但同时，也有许多人为卡梅隆的才华倾倒。一些演职人员跟随卡梅隆多年，成为卡梅隆的固定合作伙伴。另有一些女人则深深爱上了卡梅隆。她们跟卡梅隆的婚姻都算不上长久，她们迷恋他的才华，却又无法和他相处。
总之，詹姆斯·卡梅隆是美国电影史上不可或缺的闪亮之星，并推动着电影技术的发展。
