"You try to grasp this opportunity, although there is not much hope, but we still have to do 100% effort, I will talk to you about the role of the clown first, you are well prepared. When Zhou Shi heard the news of Heath Ledger's injury, he immediately pulled up Cork, the Joker in Batman is really a chilling character, even after watching it for many years, Zhou Shi still has a deep memory of this movie.

Ten years later, the movie "Batman: The Dark Knight" still ranks fifth on IMDB, with a score of 9.0, and the domestic Douban score is also 9.0, ranking 29. In general, it is considered a classic superhero movie at home and abroad.

In his previous life, according to Ledger, the 'Joker' was not just a bank robber or an ordinary criminal, but his main motivation was actually deep-seated anarchism. It is precisely because of the chaotic anarchy in society that there are evil representatives like 'clowns' who simply want to hurt others.

The core vein of the film is that the Joker constantly stimulates Harvey Dent and Batman, the two "incarnations of justice", and even hopes that Harvey Dent will kill him and Batman will kill him. Because in this way, they are just like him, the justice they believe in is just a superficial performance, and what really controls the world is the logic of the clown - "Who doesn't want justice when there is no last resort?" The clown also believes that everyone is evil, there is no one who can be completely trusted, he just needs to "nudge people" gently, and everyone will give up justice, become very selfish and ugly, betray others and even kill their comrades personally.

Zhou Shi explained his experience after watching the play in his previous life to Huang Bai in detail, and even designed small actions for him to lick his lips and roll his eyes. Even so, Zhou Shi is still not sure about the final result, you must know that before the film chose Heath Ledger to play the Joker, Robin Williams, Leitch Halmy, Paul Betany and Adrian Brody and others said that they wanted to play the Joker.

"What's going on, Nolan, do we have a chance?" Although Christopher Nolan can't make the final decision, if he can't even pass this level, then there is no need for them to fight for this role.

"We're going to have a big casting the day after tomorrow, and we can let him come and try it out, but I don't think there's much hope. "It's a challenge to have a Chinese person play such a classic role.

"But on the road to pursuing our dreams, we always have to keep trying. "Cork

"Hope you can make your dreams come true!" Nolan

Zhou Shi got the clown's script and returned to the hotel.

"Thank you, Mr. Zhou, for winning this opportunity for me. "Cork

"It's still early, your first goal is to make your acting skills up to standard, that's the premise of everything. "Zhou Shi

"I'll do my best. "Cork

"I won't say much about the professional things, Christian Bale and Heath Ledger's preparation for this role, I think you know a thing or two. If you're not determined to put in more effort than they do, we'll give up now. "Zhou Shi

"I'll do better than them. "Cork

"Well, it's responsible for you, and it's responsible for me. I hope that there is a Chinese from a continent who can stand on the stage in the middle of the world's pop culture and bloom their own flowers!"

Regardless of whether the box office of mainland movies in the previous life will exceed the domestic box office of the United States, Hollywood's film and television industry still far exceeds the mainland's film and television entertainment market. As for its influence in the world, Hollywood has thrown 108,000 miles off the mainland. The country's prosperity needs the praise of the film and television industry, and the country's influence also needs the promotion of the film and television industry. Zhou Shi doesn't want to compete with Hollywood, but wants to find his own way, which requires constant attempts.

When Disney wanted to buy YouTube, in fact, Zhou Shi was very tempted, if it weren't for Amazon's actions being much happier than Disney's, and the future development far exceeded Disney's, Zhou Shi was really willing to be acquired by Disney, at least she would be ranked second. Although by mistake, he still began to get involved in film and television investment, but this is far less than directly going deep into the core enterprises to learn, and you can gain more valuable experience.

If you miss it, you miss it, and maybe there will be opportunities in the future. At least in the subprime mortgage crisis, Disney's stock price will plummet, and then it can become a minority shareholder in them, and if it works well, maybe it can enter Disney's board of directors.

Zhou Shi thought about it, and then thought far. Let's take care of the matter in front of us first. Arrange for someone to go to Heath Ledger to get his notes about the Joker's character first, absorbing other people's experience is a shortcut, but going your own way is the real genius. Huang Bai may be a genius, but he doesn't have that much time, and he is forced to absorb the experience of others.

and then hyped "The Tuner" into a popular video, the quality of this short drama is undoubted, both the director and the actors are very powerful. His excitement is also lovely, as evidenced by Douban's high score of 9.2. YouTube has a lot of experience with how to fry a video. Moreover, this is not a public and private use, and it is also a useful attempt to expand the business of oil pipelines. In just a few days, the video has exceeded 10 million views, and there are gradually many articles and shares about "Tuner" on social media. The video was quickly included in IMDB, with a rating of 9.3 or more from the start, which quickly drove the video to the number of clicks. "The old king next door" appeared in front of the world again.

At this time, Zhou Shi found Charles Rowan, the producer of "The Dark Knight", and for them, there may be nothing else to impress them except interests. Huang Bai's fame has arrived, the popularity is there, and if the acting skills are okay, with the support of a large amount of money, there will always be a chance for him. Although many people are not optimistic about the merger of Amazon and YouTube, thinking that this will exacerbate the consumption rate of funds and is likely to drag down the two companies, the capital market still gave a positive answer. Zhou Shi's current wealth far exceeds that of these producers, and they know the power of capital and will not easily offend Zhou Shi.

Zhou Shi didn't negotiate with him personally, his status was not equal, and he could make friends in private, but if he negotiated in business, it would make people laugh. Of course, Zhou Shi would not make such a mistake, and several of his assistants would also remind him that an investment manager of the White Tiger Fund had taken over the matter. Zhou Shi also gave conditions, no matter whether this movie is a success or a failure, the next one will continue to invest, and the investment amount and investment conditions remain unchanged.

You must know that with the same investment amount, Galaxy Capital transferred part of the proceeds to Warner, and if the film only recovers its costs, Galaxy Capital will definitely lose money. This is one of the reasons why they agreed to withdraw the indictment. Because the copyright dispute case continues, the possibility of not being resolved is very high, and now that Warner has received tangible benefits, there is no dissatisfaction. Fox's conditions are similar to those here, and Galaxy Capital's investment this time has a great probability of losing money in the eyes of ordinary people. In addition, with the chaos of the film and television industry, if it weren't for the participation of other private equity funds and the guidance of insiders, Zhou Shi would not be so crazy. The fruit of "Avatar" is very tempting, but not everyone can eat it. It's not just about luck, it's about guts!
