After buying Marvel, I became the king of Hollywood

The protagonist of this movie seems to be Batman, but the most brilliant is undoubtedly the Joker, a devil who plays with people's hearts, a madman, and a king of criminals.

Likewise, he is still a fringe figure in society, a clown who is laughed at, and a wretch with a poor background.

This is a very three-dimensional character setting, which must be very brilliant.

And such a brilliant role is exactly what he wanted.

But the biggest question is, can a professional comedian like him play such a role well?

On this point, even Jim Carrey is not absolutely confident.

However, he was unwilling to give up this role, so he spoke resolutely.

Kevin smiled lightly.

"Please act like a clown, and let me see if you can act out the feeling I want."

Although he had seen Jim Carrey's god-level acting skills in his previous life, he hadn't seen it now after all. A preliminary assessment is still required.

Jim Carrey nodded, looked down at the script, and chose a passage that he remembered deeply just now.

Break the lines into pieces and remember them in my heart.

Then the whole person lowered his head and raised his head.

A crazy clown suddenly appeared in front of Kevin.

Unlike Heath Ledger and other excellent clown actors who need to use makeup to express the identity of the clown, as well as character characteristics.

Jim Carrey, just from his eyes and facial expressions, conveyed to Kevin that he was the clown, the crazy king of Gotham City.

"I am a clown. In the eyes of others, maybe they like me, or maybe they hate me."

"But nobody really knew me, nobody knew my past, my grief."

"Those frustrated people only care about whether I can save them from being unhappy."

This line was spoken by the clown when he was still awake before he really became a clown.

This kind of state of going crazy, not yet crazy, or a little bit crazy, was completely shown in front of Kevin by Jim Carrey.

Then, just a detail change on the face.

Jim Carrey controlled the corners of his mouth and opened it exaggeratedly to both sides, forming a very exaggerated smile.

But from Jim Carrey's face, what Kevin can feel is a feeling called a skinny smile, which is an extremely precise facial control ability.

In his previous life, Kevin only knew that there were three people who could do it.

Mr. You, who played the old version of Jigong, was half smiling and half crying when Jigong burned his house.

The god-level acting skills that seem to cry and laugh.

After Zhou Xingxing discovered the real body of the monster with the demon mirror during the Journey to the West, he changed 7 expressions in just ten seconds.

That leaves Jim Carrey.

These three people are the existence of the peak acting skills in Kevin's heart, and there is no need for overly exaggerated movements, a look in the eyes, and a subtle change in facial expression.

It can convey to others, the psychological changes of the characters.

Jim Carrey continued with his lines.

"In their eyes, you're just a freak, just like me."

"They need you now, but when they don't need you anymore, they will drive you out like a leper. Their morals and guidelines are just a cold joke."

"Whenever there's trouble, it's all thrown aside."

"I'll show you that when the time comes, these so-called 'civilized people' will eat each other up."

"And you'll find that I'm not a monster, I'm just a visionary."

Immediately afterwards, Jim Carrey let out a few crazy laughs from his mouth.

A clown just like that appeared in front of Kevin.

Kevin applauded, breaking Jim Carrey's performance.

"Wonderful, very wonderful."

"I can't imagine that there is no one in Hollywood who is more suitable for a clown than you."

"You can take the script away first, but I don't want any news about this script to leak outside, I hope you pay attention."

Kevin's words undoubtedly handed over the role of the Joker directly to Jim Carrey.

Facing Kevin's words, Jim Carrey looked happy, smiling like a child.

It looks unusually innocent.

"Thank you, thank you, Kevin!"

Thanks to Jim Carrey, Kevin just sounds comfortable.

The tone is full of sincerity.

"You're welcome, I feel your potential from you."

"In my opinion, you have what it takes to be the greatest actor in Hollywood."

After some exchanges, Jim Carrey immediately regarded Kevin as his best confidant.

After chatting for a while, Kevin watched Jim Carrey leave.

Now that the most important clown is in place, after he goes to Warner Bros. to discuss specific investment matters, he can start working immediately after finding actors.

Calculate the funds and time, and after the money for the Dark Knight two parts is recovered, Kevin will be able to attack Marvel.

With this in mind, Kevin got into the car and headed towards Warner.

Chapter 93

Warner Conference Room.

On one side is Steve Kevin, the major shareholder of MGM, the owner of Sunrise Films, and a well-known Hollywood director.

On the other side, there are many senior leaders of Warner.

The two sides are discussing intensely about the Batman Dark Knight series proposed by Kevin.

"Director Kevin, what you said separates Batman from other superheroes, I disagree!"

A high-level executive took the lead in launching the attack. Before that, Batman had a strong comic style.

However, the plan proposed by Steve Kevin is a complete realism, which directly transfers Gotham City, the city in the comics, to the real New York City.

And Batman's superhero identity was also stripped from him by Kevin.

What was presented to Warner executives was not quite like Batman, but more like a realistic crime action movie.

This made Warner's senior executives feel suspicious.

If it weren't for the fact that this project was proposed by Kevin, a well-known director, it would have been swept away by Warner.

Even so, Kevin's project was still strongly resisted by Warner's top management.

Batman, should be the Batman in the Batman comics, is the superhero in the minds of Americans.

Not an ordinary person in Kevin's plan.

Kevin just watched the rebuttals of several high-level officials calmly, and the whole person looked very calm.

He can understand these objections.

It's like Journey to the West. In people's perception, Monkey King should be the monkey king, not a human being, and it is even more impossible to fall in love.

However, in the big talk of Journey to the West, it completely broke people's perception, and Monkey King not only talked about love.

Still multiple love affairs.

This is undoubtedly surprising, and it also made the box office unsatisfactory.

The high-level people who hold opposing opinions basically have this kind of thinking.

But it's not them who really make decisions, but Warner's president, Robinov.

In the memory of his previous life, Robinov seems to have resigned after the Dark Knight. I don't know if it was because of the successive failures of the DC universe.

And caused.

But, apparently, Nolan's Dark Knight impressed Robinoff.

then today

..

Robinov, who was stared at by everyone, was very hesitant.

In terms of personal feelings and viewing preferences, he actually has no objection to this Batman Dark Knight, but what other executives have considered is correct.

Can the audience accept such an unprecedented Batman?

You know, this is an investment of hundreds of millions of dollars. Once it is lost, even if he is the president, he cannot afford the consequences of the loss.

Up to now, Robinov is very grateful for Lakaiwen's idea of ​​investing 30%.

This greatly reduces Warner's risk.

After hesitating for a while, Robinov glanced at the executives present and said suddenly:

"Since everyone disagrees, let's vote with a show of hands!"

"Hands up who agrees with Steve Kevin's plan!"

While speaking, Robinov was the first to raise his hand.

In terms of movies, although he is the president of Warner Bros., he is not a director or producer after all. To some extent, he is actually an outsider.

As a layman, he only knows one thing: laymen should not lead experts.

All he has to do is look at the grades.

And Steve Kevin, as a rookie director, has already proved his strength with four consecutive box office hits.

At the same time, look at the rules of directors in Hollywood.

Steve Kevin is undoubtedly at the peak creative period of a director at this time, and the possibility of his next film failing at the box office is infinitely close to zero.

After understanding this, Robinov resolutely chose to support Steve Kevin's new film project.

There were ten Warner executives present. After Robinov raised his hand, another seven executives raised their hands.

Obviously, they have more trust in Steve Kevin in film than risk.

So far, Warner has agreed with Steve Kevin's film project.

The production cost of the Dark Knight two parts is as high as [-] million US dollars.

This also means that Kevin needs to spend an investment of 6000 million U.S. dollars, but with the remuneration of the three identities of the script producer and director, Cavalier Kevin only needs to spend 4000 million U.S. dollars to get 30 million dollars in these two films. % share.

...

After some hypocrisy with the executives of Warner Bros., Kevin left Warner with a plan.

Came to Chenxi Film Company.

As soon as he entered the door, Kevin heard the sweet shouts of the Alexander sisters.

"Boss, you're here!"

Helen and Emma immediately ran out from the front desk, one by one actively hugging Kevin's hands.

In just one year, Steve Kevin's position in Hollywood has jumped three times in a row, making the two of them envious.

It's just that I usually don't have many opportunities to get in touch with Kevin, so I managed to catch Kevin today.

The second daughter immediately leaned over very affectionately.

Kevin couldn't take his eyes off, with an upright look on his face, he dragged the two sisters to Dawson's office.

"Boss, you are here."

With a flattering smile, Dawson stood up to welcome Kevin. As for his two nieces, who were pestering Kevin like this, he pretended not to see them.
