"Please...... Plum...... Give it to me...... I need it...... Please~~ You give it to me, I won't play Sherlock Holmes~~ Let Benny play ~~ Let Benny play ~~ I'll play Moriarty...... God~~Please~~ Give it to me......" At this moment, Heath Ledger was like a homeless man who had not eaten or drunk for three days in the desert, suddenly saw a glass of water, looked at Li Xiaole with a pitiful look and pleaded bitterly, his bloodshot eyes were full of helplessness, crawling on the ground.

"No, Ledger, you don't need it." Li Xiaole looked at Heath Ledger on the ground, squatted down, looked into his eyes, and still shook his head firmly.

Heath Ledger pleaded for a while, but Li Xiaole was still unmoved, he finally couldn't stand it anymore, and sat on the ground and cursed with all kinds of vicious words:

"You bastard...... You Chinese bastard~! Who do you think you are!? You don't rely on me to start filming this series~~~ I'm telling you, I'm quitting! I'm not going to do it again~! I'm going back to the United States~! You damn Chinese ruffian~! I'm going to tell the media~! You deceived me, I'm going to the court to sue you~! I'm going to ruin your goddamn bastard......"

And Li Xiaole still looked calm, just squatting on the ground and staring at the poor actor quietly, he knew that he couldn't do anything now.

Heath Ledger didn't know how long he was cursing, tired and hungry, coupled with extreme mental torture, he finally broke down emotionally, trembling like a frightened animal, and then sat on the ground "Woo ......" and cried bitterly, Li Xiaole came to help him up at this time, and helped him to the bench.

Heath Ledger trembled, sobbed, and looked at Li Xiaole like a child and confessed: "I'm sorry, Lee, I'm sorry...... I didn't mean to......"

"It's okay Ledger, it's okay." Li Xiaole said calmly, seeing that he had finally come to his senses, he put the needle in front of him and asked, "Do you still need this?" ”

Looking at the needle, Heath Ledger's eyes contracted and hesitated for a moment, then shook his head weakly, and said with a wry smile: "Lee, is it that even if I use this, I can't do Benny's level......"

"Hmm......" Li Xiaole nodded.

Heath Ledger lowered his head in pain, was silent for a while, and then looked up and said, "......Can I smoke a cigarette?"

Li Xiaole nodded, took out a box of cigarettes from Heath Ledger's bag, and took out one and put it in his mouth to light it for him.

Heath Ledger took a deep breath, his whole body relaxed, and finally showed a calm expression: "Lee...... I see, Benny is actually better suited to play Sherlock Holmes than I ......"

He admits defeat, he can finally face his failure, when he is unwilling to accept his failure, this failure is like a huge mountain pressing on his heart, making him feel suffocated, but when he is willing to admit this failure, admit his insignificance...... The pressure of all this was suddenly gone, and he felt more relaxed than ever.

A truly strong man, a man who can achieve a truly great cause, must be a person who can honestly accept his failure, only by completely giving up those meaningless "self-esteem" and recognizing his own insignificance, can the boys mature, in order to transform into a truly powerful, indestructible inner strength on this spiritual ruin, and become a real man.

Heath Ledger never considered himself worse than anyone else, despite his early setbacks, but deep down he used the word "young" as an excuse for failure.

And after he really exerted his acting talent, he has been smooth sailing, becoming the darling of Hollywood, a real pride of heaven, continuous success has forced him to accept any failure, when these inner pressures are transformed into realized events, then he will slowly be forced into a dead end by this obsession...... This is also the reason why he suffered from depression a year later and died young.

And on a deeper level, "pride" is "inferiority" These two mentalities are two sides of the same coin, under the incomparable pride of Heath Ledger, it is precisely a deep sense of inferiority, this kind of fragile and fear of failure, for ordinary people, it will only be a character problem, but for a talented actor like Heath Ledger, it is a very destructive hidden danger.

His heart is wrapped in a sense of inferiority and fragility, and once he encounters a crazy character like "Joker", he will be swallowed up by the boundless darkness and sin of this character, and his true heart will be swallowed by the character...... Falling into a state of schizophrenia...... Can't help yourself.

It's not too late, before he plays the clown and falls into that crazy state, let him mature and build an indestructible and powerful heart, then he won't be eaten by the character, and he can't extricate himself.

Obviously, this goal has been achieved, Li Xiaole breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, he knew that the fate of this actor who would have been on a dead end had changed...... He saved one of the most promising actors in the world.

However, seeing that Heath Ledger looked a little depressed, it seemed that he was in another extreme danger......

Li Xiaole keenly captured the subtle changes in his heart, of course he couldn't let Heath Ledger completely deny himself because of this failure, what he wanted to do was to let Heath Ledger fully recognize himself.

"Ledger, do you know why you played Sherlock Holmes and couldn't surpass Benny?" Li Xiaole turned his head to look at him and asked.

"Because I didn't have professional training in British stage plays, I didn't have him to work hard." Heath Ledger shook his head helplessly.

"No...... These are superficial, mostly because of talent. Li Xiaole said slowly.

"Talent?" Heath Ledger was stunned.

"Because Benny's voice is naturally rich and his breath is very penetrating, when performing a long list of lines quickly, even if the rhythm is fast, every word will be clear, and there is a special explosive power of lines." Li Xiaole explained:

"What's more, he's a Londoner, he's been speaking London English since he was a kid, and he doesn't need to hold his accent to say that long list of lines like you do, and the role is far easier for him than you, so no matter how hard you try, you can't achieve that explosive power of fast-paced lines."

"So that's the case~~" Heath Ledger's expression finally softened a lot.

"Benny's talent is truly unique, and you also have a unique talent." Li Xiaole looked at Heath Ledger and said.

"My talent?" Heath Ledger was stunned when he listened, his talent? He felt as if he could do anything, but he didn't know where he was better, and the way he performed seemed to be different every time he tortured himself.

"Yes, you have a unique ability to slow down." Li Xiaole looked at him and said.

"Slow-paced?" Heath Ledger thought for thought.

"Well, your advantage, you are good at orchestrating every part of your body and mind, blending into every small movement and demeanor, and then producing a strangely slow but jumping expressiveness." Li Xiaole stood up and made an analogy:

"For example, the role of the Joker, there is not a scene in the Dark Knight where he and Batman face off, Batman fakes and rolls over and falls to the ground and is injured, if it is an ordinary person who plays the Joker, he will rush over impatiently with a knife, and you are likely to do this~~"

Li Xiaole said, carefully took out the "no physical object" dagger as a weapon, stared at the "no figure" Batman with a fierce face, cautiously and cautiously approached the target, and then suddenly walked in with brisk dance steps, these two actions formed a great contrast, one solemnly held a knife as a guard, and the other danced easily, just two small movements, which made the role of "Joker" instantly come alive.

"This ...... It's amazing...... I never thought of acting like that...... It turned out that it could be like this" Heath Ledger couldn't help but exclaim softly when he looked at it, this director not only has an amazing "psychological rhythm clock", but also has such amazing acting skills, and couldn't help but be surprised: "Lee, how do you know that there is this scene in "The Dark Knight"? ”

"This script was written by a friend of mine." Li Xiaole pursed his lips and patted Heath Ledger on the shoulder: "You should understand what I mean, right?" ”

"Got it, I totally get it." Heath Ledger swept away the gloom he had before, and returned to the childlike sunny smile he had for many years, "Lee, I have a request. ”

"What request?" Li Xiaole knew what he was going to say, so he immediately pretended to be calm in a happy mood.

"Sherlock Holmes let Benny play it, I think he and Martin are a perfect match." Heath Ledger solemnly spoke his heart.

"Let him act...... It's not appropriate, right? So what do you play? Li Xiaole smiled in his heart, but asked with a frown on the surface.

"I'll play Moriarty......" Heath Ledger said, sticking out his tongue and licking his lips excitedly, "If I play Moriarty, I think I can crush him and Martin to pieces." "Benny has Benny's talent, and he has his talent, and every actor is different, and he can't beat Benny in Sherlock Holmes, but he can compete with Benny in different ways.

"Okay~ Since you are so confident, then let's decide so." Li Xiaole's trick that had been plotting for a long time succeeded, and a bright smile couldn't help but appear on the corner of his mouth, and then, the two did not go to sleep, but spent the whole night in this empty rehearsal hall, discussing with great interest the way the clown and Moriarty performed, without any sleepiness......
