Brothers turn against each other, and love turns into killing, which satisfies the psychological needs of too many people who eat melons: how can there be any real friendship in Hollywood, it is all plastic brothers or sisters.

There are also media reports that Martin has long had a conflict with Nicholson, who once used homemade fireworks to bombard Martin's residence, and even attracted LAPD.

The new issue of Vanity Fair magazine uses the image of the clown of DC Comics as the cover, and writes an article analyzing the incident of Martin and Nicholson's rebellion.

"The clown played by Jack Nicholson has become one of the classic images in film history and has always been praised. Jack has never been a generous person, and this time he criticized Martin for playing the Joker, inevitably out of this psychology: If Martin's Joker surpasses his Joker, will it be very shameless? ”

The reporters and paparazzi frantically gathered at the gate of Warner Studios, and whenever they saw the Dark Knight crew, they gathered around and asked what they thought of Martin and Nicholson.

Before the film even started, Martin and the Joker had already stolen all the headlines.

Nicholson played so well that he dressed up as a Joker in the 1989 version of "Batman" while watching the Lakers' first playoff game of the season.

In the media's interpretation, Nicholson is telling Martin in this way that there is only one one clown in the movie version!

"Look, are we missing attention?"

Standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows of the Warner Building's office, Charles Rowan pointed to the group of reporters at the entrance of the studio and said to Orlin: "It doesn't even take the crew to exert force, just the actors themselves have created the heat to grab most of the entertainment headlines." ”

Orlin has also been eating melons recently, saying: "Martin's actor is so good, how can you say it in Silicon Valley?" That's right, with its own traffic! ”

Charles Rowan said: "Warner Bros. has been working with Martin and he has brought a lot of profit to Warner over the years, and looking at the current situation, he can create more in the coming years. ”

Orlin still reminded: "No matter how hot the heat is, the work is the key, and there is no quality of works to support it, these are all illusory." ”

Charles said: "You saw Martin's performance during the audition, acting skills are definitely not a problem, what I am most worried about is Nolan's side, such a dark, heavy and realistic story, a clown scene is equal to Batman, or even better, whether the audience can accept it." ”

Orlin added: "The script is based on The Dark Knight Returns, and the comic has been well received. ”

There was a knock on the office door, and Nolan walked in.

Charles smiled and asked, "The crew wasn't disturbed much, was it?" ”

"Most of the crew has already gone to Atlanta to make preliminary preparations, and there are not many people left here." Nolan came over and had an idea: "Martin and Nicholson, it's very hot right now, and it's hard to keep ...... in the future."

Orlin asked, "What do you think?" ”

Nolan is good at more than just shooting: "When the film reaches a certain stage of shooting, Warner and DC can invite Nicholson to visit the crew and see how Martin's clown is." ”

Charles nodded: "Yes." ”

Before Nolan could finish his sentence, he proposed, "We can continue to figure out something about Martin Davis and Jack Nicholson." ”

His voice suddenly lowered: "Or continue to stir up the conflict between the two and let their verbal war continue." ”

Orlin smiled: "Good idea. ”

The production cost alone is as high as $180 million, and Nolan has taken on this hundreds of millions of burdens, not only working on the film itself, but also paying attention to other aspects.

In the last seven or eight years, there have been too many good movies that have not done well at the box office.

Publicity and marketing are becoming more and more important, and Nolan said: "I think Martin's topicality and ability to make news are much better than Bell's, and Martin should be the core of both the film and the publicity." ”

The more he said, the more excited he became: "Not only Martin and Nicholson, but also the relationship between Martin and Bale, can also make a fuss, and now they have created a harmonious image in front of the public, and when the film is filmed, the conflict between the two broke out, and we can say that the two are too deep into the play and are affected by the role." ”

Charles Rowan looked at Nolan with admiration and said to Orlin: "Look, I'm right with you, if Martin is the most marketing actor, Chris is the most marketing director." ”

Nolan smiled and said, "It's too famous." ”

"A huge investment is like a mountain," Orling said. ”

Nolan answered: "One more thing, I plan to have a member of Jonathan's screenwriting team follow Martin throughout the filming set and record his words and deeds, I have communicated with Martin in this regard, and he himself agrees, but the published report must be approved by him." ”

Charles understands Nolan's intentions: "Martin is a man who never lacks news that attracts public attention. He nodded to Nolan: "Yes, I will send someone to negotiate with Martin's agent about related matters." ”

Orlin laughed, with such a director and actor who can make trouble, the film will not be able to attract the attention of passers-by.

…………

A van drove into Warner Studios, detoured to a side road, and stopped next to the warehouse of The Dark Knight's Studios.

Lily followed in her newly-arrived red Cadillac, parked the car, and ran to the side of the van.

Linda, who was in charge of the handover of the crew, had already opened the warehouse door.

Lily said, "Director, the goods are all in the car, and I have moved them all. ”

The conditions given by the crew were good, so she emptied the carved clown at one time.

These are sold, and she has a share.

Give it to Martin, and not a penny will be earned.

Lily feels that in order to really stand up in front of Martin and her sister Elena, the economic foundation is very important to refuse the iron fist of love.

Work hard to make money!

Linda asked people to carry the goods and get out of the car, and found that the goods were packed in several large boxes, and opened one of the boxes for inspection, and each clown carving was vivid, which can be called a fine product.

She looked at Lily, no wonder a sharp carving knife, in the girl's hand, as flexible as a finger, stabbed wherever she said.

"Director?" Someone came over and asked.

Linda said, "Hurry up and count, all the items are in storage." ”

A few workers got busy.

Linda remembers very well that Lily Carter was a relative of Martin Davis, who was notoriously difficult in Hollywood, and immediately smiled and said, "Lily, you have carved so much?" ”

Lily recalled the horror of being dominated by a large number of Australian bison horns, and her heart palpitated: "I have been in school for most of the year, and my spare time is spent practicing, and even the birthday gifts I received are a lot of carving raw materials, I ...... I want to cry. ”

Linda said in her heart which bastard was so ruthless and tortured such a beautiful girl.

She took a closer look at the carved material in her hand and asked, "Where is this raw material, it looks good." ”

Lily is very conscious of collecting money and doing things, and said: "It seems to be the horns of Australia." ”

Linda asked, "Where did you get the goods from?" ”

Lily didn't dare to go to Martin, fearing that she would be suppressed with an iron fist, and said, "I'm looking for someone to ask?" ”

Linda nodded, "Yes." ”

Lily called Bruce,

Within minutes, Bruce came looking for him.

Lily gave a general account of the situation.

Linda took the initiative to say: "Do you have a source for these materials?" ”

Bruce nodded, "Yes." ”

"There may be a lot of them later on the crew." Linda thought for a moment: "You leave a contact information." ”

Bruce left his business card to Linda, and suddenly thought of one thing, Martin can't exterminate the Australian bison alone, and bring in another crew?

Linda went to assist in the inspection.

Lily came over and quietly asked Bruce, "Are there a lot of bison in Australia?" ”

Bruce didn't quite understand either: "It should be ...... Not going extinct, right? ”

Lily, who is not an environmentalist and is not interested in protecting animals, said: "Just don't go extinct." ”

Bruce called Martin about the matter.

Martin thought about it a little and gave a solution: "In this way, Lao Bu, you and Elena sisters and brothers go to register an import and export trading company, Harris should know this, let him do it, and if the crew needs it, he will supply Australian specialties to the crew." ”

The infestation of bison and bay crocodiles in Australia is a help to maintain their ecological balance.

Hanging up the phone, Martin looked at Kelly and Louise in the office and said, "I just received a call from Wu Maoting from Asia tonight, and he doesn't plan to continue investing in our project. ”

Louise remembered something some time ago: "Warner Pictures approached him? ”

Martin said: "Yes, Warner Pictures invited him to invest in Terminator IV, and gave him a lot of promises that we couldn't give. ”

"Promise?" Kelly couldn't help but laugh: "Didn't you tell him that Hollywood's promises are all shit?" ”

Martin shrugged: "I said, others can't listen to it, Hollywood is famous, Wu Maoting thinks that he can directly cooperate with large companies, and he will make more money without us middlemen." ”

Louise said: "Perhaps, everyone has their own ambitions, and they can't be forced. ”

Martin nodded: "I'm going to Atlanta soon, Lily is on the crew, you can take care of it for me." ”

"Don't worry, I'll leave it to me." Louise said deliberately: "If you use something made by Lily, you have to pay for it." ”

She pulled Kelly down: "Wanderer, am I right?" ”

Kelly chuckled as she leaned on Louise's shoulder.

Entering May, the Dark Knight crew chartered a flight to Atlanta.

Even though most of the crew left for Atlanta early, the crew still filled a passenger plane.

The director of the crew is a real-life maniac, and all kinds of goods fill two cargo planes.

One of the IMAX cameras was the top priority for transportation.

Although Hollywood already has some 3D films, Nolan refuses to be one of them.

After arriving in Atlanta, Martin locked himself in a hotel and devoted himself to preparing for the role, not even going to Elena's side.

It wasn't until two days before the crew started filming that he came out of the hotel to meet with old friends from Atlanta.
