Rebirth of the Thousand-Faced Movie King

"Ledger, I'm Nolan."

"Oh, Nolan, I thought you had to call me in a few days. Great, when will you be on set?"

"Well……"

"It's not determined yet, it doesn't matter, I'll wait for you."

"this……"

"Nolan, do you have something to say?"

"Um... Ledger, what if I said, I chose someone else to play the Joker."

"What."

Ledger, who had been waiting at home for a few days, received a call from director Nolan.

However, Ledger couldn't believe it, "You must be kidding, right?"

"I guess I'm kidding too."

"Oh, God... what you said is true. God, I'm thinking, who else can you choose besides me? Is it Chen Ping?"

"Do you know Chen Ping?"

"Here, it's him... Damn it, although I think his acting skills are good, I don't think he surpasses me. Nolan, you are cheating me."

"We are old acquaintances. Do you think I will trick you? Well, let me send you the video of his audition."

"Okay, I want to see how he performs in the audition."

Furious, Ledger received an email from Nolan.

Opening the video, Ledger complained while watching it: "Oh, it's just this little acting, no strength at all."

Although Ledger was complaining, Ledger was actually secretly frightened.

Chen Ping's acting skills completely exceeded his expectations.

He originally thought that his role as the Joker had truly integrated into it.

But I didn't expect that the clown played by Chen Ping would be so amazing.

Especially Chen Ping's scene looks like he is mentally ill at first glance.

How did this guy do this?

Is this guy really mentally ill?

but.

soon.

Ledger knew that Chen Ping was not mentally ill, it was just his acting skills.

Then, Chen Ping's solo dance left Ledger speechless.

Although this solo dance looks very ordinary, the dance is not good-looking, and it is even full of comedy.

But this kind of funnyness perfectly expresses the inner world of the clown bit by bit.

Watching his solo dance, you will subconsciously ask, is the clown really a clown?

Is the Joker really a psychopath?

Does the Joker really want to destroy the world?

Why does the clown become like this?

Ledger didn't think about this before.

You can see Chen Ping's performance.

Only then did he realize the gap between himself and Chen Ping.

Even the clown he plays is also very explosive.

But in terms of completeness and complexity, it is far weaker than Chen Ping.

"Ahem..."

Ledger grabbed his fists and felt a sense of failure in his heart.

He didn't expect that.

I tried my best, but still didn't get this role.

And in just a few seconds, Ledger spit out a mouthful of blood and fell down.

…

"Chen, I can't believe it, I really can't believe it."

"Why can't you believe it?"

"Don't you know that you passed the audition for director Nolan and will report to the Batman crew next week?"

"Oh, Nolan didn't say it at the time, and I didn't know either."

"Hahaha, now let me tell you clearly that you succeeded..."

When the Batman crew got a call from CAA, Combs was overjoyed.

Although he recommended Chen Ping to audition for the role of clown, he believed that Chen Ping might not be able to win the role.

Even though he felt that Chen Ping was indeed very talented and had great potential, he also felt that Chen Ping had a low chance of winning this role.

To know.

Even though the Joker is the fourth male character in Batman, he is an extremely important character.

He is different from the elf prince played by Chen Ping.

The Elf Prince played by Chen Ping is not a particularly important role in The Lord of the Rings, and he does not even have many lines.

Although Chen Ping did make this elf prince popular.

But being popular is one thing; whether Chen Ping can stand firm in Hollywood is another matter.

Nolan will not favor him because of the elf prince played by Chen Ping.

Not to mention people, he also learned that Ledger also went to audition.

Based on Ledger’s relationship with Nolan and Ledger’s status as a celebrity, the role of the Joker is basically Ledger’s.

But no one expected it.

Chen Ping actually eliminated Ledger.

Not only that, it is said that Ledger vomited blood and was sent to the hospital after receiving the news.

"What, Kangbo, you said Ledger was sent to the hospital?"

"Yes, that's what the news says."

"what's the situation?"

"I don't know, probably because of the audition."

After saying that, Kang Bo said: "Chen Ping, don't get excited, this has nothing to do with you."

Worried about Chen Ping's psychological burden, Kang Bo said: "The entertainment industry is like this. Some people can tolerate it, while others can't. After all, no one wants something like this to happen."

"I know."

Chen Ping nodded.

but.

It wasn't Ledger's trip to the hospital that worried him.

If it was just because Ledger lost his role, couldn't figure it out for a while, and then ended up in the hospital, Chen Ping wouldn't think much about it.

The entertainment industry is inherently an extremely competitive place.

If you can't stand it, you will be eliminated.

But in his previous life, Ledger died because of the role of the Joker.

This made Chen Ping still slightly worried.

hang up the phone.

Chen Ping inquired about the news and went to the hospital where Ledger was staying.

…

"How about it?"

"Can't die."

"You, I didn't expect you to pay so much for this role."

"I don't blame you. After watching the video you sent me, I also feel that Chen Ping acted better than me."

When Chen Ping came to the hospital.

Chen Ping discovered that Director Nolan was also there.

See Chen Ping.

Nolan smiled: "Ledger, look, the instigator is here."

Ledger was lying on the hospital bed, turned his head, saw Chen Ping, and said with some surprise: "Chen, why are you here?"

"Come see you."

"Are you afraid that I will die?"

"Hahaha, I am worried about this."

"Don't worry, he probably won't die."

Ledger coughed a few words as he spoke.

Then he said: "Speaking of which, I want to thank you."

"Thank me?"

Chen Ping felt a little confused: "Thank me for sending you to the hospital?"

"So be it."

Ledger nodded and continued: "The hospital told me that I actually had serious health problems, but I had never come to the hospital before. It's better now. With this hospitalization, I also want to heal all aspects of my body." Take good care of yourself."

"That's a good idea."

Chen Ping nodded.

Then I checked Ledger's various hospital test reports.

I was relieved to find that nothing was particularly dangerous.

If this is the case, Chen Ping will be relieved.

"Don't worry, when I get better, I will definitely compete with you again."

"Want to take revenge?"

"Of course."

"However, I think there is no chance."

"Why?"

"When you get better, I'm afraid I'm going to sweep through Hollywood."

"Blow you."

Although the two had only just met.

But at this time, Ledger seemed to be old friends with Chen Ping for many years.

Nolan on the side was also extremely pleased: "Ledger, seeing you in this state now, I feel more relieved."

Then he glanced at Chen Ping and patted Chen Ping on the shoulder: "Okay, you guys chat, I'll leave first. By the way, Chen... will be on the set in a few days. I'm really looking forward to your role as the clown."

"OK, I will report on time."

…

It’s pretty much the same as the previous crew.

For a good Hollywood newcomer like Chen Ping, he will not be well treated in any crew.

Although when he first joined the group, many big names didn't treat Chen Ping well.

even.

At the beginning, several leading actors were relatively friendly towards Chen Ping.

But Chen Ping knew.

This is only temporary.

Because at the beginning, these people had no scenes opposite Chen Ping, or the scenes were not too tense at the beginning.

They will all show their modest and gentlemanly side.

But.

Once Chen Ping starts to threaten the status of other major actors, they will explode at any time.

As it is now.

When the clown played by Chen Ping became more and more perfect and outstanding.

The expressions of several of the main Batman actors began to look solemn.

even.

There are some actors who have already started preparing for PkPk with Chen Ping.

Of course, this Pk is not a real person PK, but a Pk during a show.

only.

Pk like this.

Chen Ping has never been afraid of anyone.

Although they are well-known Hollywood actors.

But in Chen Ping's eyes, their acting skills may not be that high.

They just stand on the platform of Hollywood and have greater exposure.

so.

Chen Ping readily accepted their Pk or challenge.

and.

Taking this opportunity, Chen Ping also wanted to really shock these Hollywood stars.

…

"Chen Ping, the drama may not be so easy to perform in a while, you have to pay attention."

"Director, I know."

"Just understand. This is the environment in Hollywood. This is where the interests of all parties compete."

"Thanks."

Before filming started, Nolan suddenly said a few words to Chen Ping.

Probably, he also saw the atmosphere in the crew in recent days.

But as a director.

He had no part in it.

This is a private matter for all actors, whether they are good at acting or otherwise.

As long as you can film a good show normally, that's fine.

"However, I also believe that you will be able to handle it."

Nolan said with a smile at Chen Ping.

That night, it was a night scene.

The clown played by Chen Ping breaks into the Gotham City party hall.

He held a steel knife and grabbed a supporting actor, with an extremely weird smile on his face.

Chen Ping pressed the actor's head, inserted the steel knife into his mouth, and said, "Do you know where these scars come from?"

"My father was an alcoholic and a demon."

"One night, he was even crazier than usual. My mother picked up the kitchen knife to protect herself, and he didn't like that, not at all. So, I watched him grab the knife and the bucket and steal my mother's bucket. , and laughing. Then, he turned to me and said, why are you so serious? He came towards me with a knife, why are you so serious... He inserted the knife into my mouth, just like I am inserting it now It's the same in your mouth. Yeah, he said, let's make a smiley face."

Chen Ping licked his lips as he spoke.

But he didn't seem to be interested in this person and pushed him out.

Looking in front of him, Chen Ping found someone he was interested in.

right.

She is the female lead of Batman.

Chen Ping shook his hair and walked up to Female No. 1 with a knife: "You must be Harvey's little lover. Well, you are indeed very beautiful. Is it because of these scars? I want to know where these scars came from Are you here, come here...look at me."

Chen Ping pinched Female No. 1’s face and brought her close to his face.

The original female No. 1 stood on the side and remained calm.

even.

Before, she was thinking about how to act opposite Chen Ping.

even.

She also thought about kicking Chen Ping in the crotch to show his majesty as the number one female.

Although this plan was approved by the director.

But.

When Chen Ping actually came to her, Female No. 1 was so frightened that her face turned pale and she couldn't say a word.

But Chen Ping didn't care whether she could tell it or not.

Although he found that the female lead seemed to have forgotten her lyrics, Chen Ping ignored her.

The director didn't call for a break, so Chen Ping continued his performance.

"Have you seen my face? Let me tell you, I once had a wife. She was very beautiful, just like you. She told me that I thought too much. She told me that I should smile more. . She likes gambling and owes a lot of loan sharks. One day, they cut her face and we had no money for surgery and she couldn't bear it. I just want to see her smile again, um... I just want to Let her know that I don't care about these scars. So I stuck the knife in my mouth and made myself like this. But you know, she couldn't stand the way I looked and left. …”

While talking, Chen Ping touched the face of Female No. 1.

He even licked it with his tongue.

until.

When the director calls for a card...

At this time, the female number 1 had already collapsed on the ground.

…

"This guy is simply a lunatic."

"I didn't expect that he actually regarded himself as a clown."

"Oh my God, look, I have his scratches on my face now."

Unfortunately.

The scenes between the main actors in Batman and Chen Ping ended with their defeat.

Whether it's with the male number 2, the female number 1, or even with the male number 1 Batman.

Chen Ping always looks at you with a look that completely sees through you, even contemptuously.

Such a look is very unpleasant, but it is deeply rooted in people's hearts.

Often Chen Ping only said a few words on the set, and several actors were shocked by Chen Ping's words.

Just like a play that had just been performed.

Batman captures the Joker played by Chen Ping.

But even so, Chen Ping made words that even Batman couldn't bear: "To them, you are a freak, just like me."

"They need you now, but wait until you are no longer needed. They will banish you, like a leper."

"Their morality, their code, is a boring joke, and it's all lost when they get into trouble."

"They can only be good people when there is peace. I will show you that in times of crisis, these, these civilized people will kill each other."

"Look, do you think what I said makes sense? I'm not actually a devil, I just think ahead..."

…

certainly.

Chen Ping's performance is anything but.

In the cell, Chen Ping also used these words to anger the police guarding him.

even.

He also instigated the rebellion of No. 2 Harvey, making him a two-faced man.

Although this is all the plot setting of the Joker, this is how it is.

But when the clown played by Chen Ping appeared in front of them, they felt powerless.

They don't know how to deal with Chen Ping.

They don't even know what acting skills they should use to show their composure.

In this way, they were led by the clown played by Chen Ping...

Just like in the play, the Joker holds everyone in the city, even Batman can't escape his grasp.

"It seems we have to talk to him."

"Yes, otherwise, if he acted like this, people who didn't know would think he was the protagonist."

"Yes, he is stealing the spotlight. He is not a qualified actor."

…

A few days later.

The four main actors from the Dark Knight crew found Chen Ping.

Male number 1, male number 2, and female number 1.

Male No. 1 Christian, this is the biggest one.

This is not the first time he has played Batman, he has played Batman once before.

But this time playing Batman made him feel very aggrieved.

He felt that the Batman he played lacked the majesty of previous Batmans.

And all this is because of Chen Ping.

The male number 2, A Lun, plays the role of the two-faced man Avi.

Before that.

Alun feels that the character of Two-Face is the most outstanding character in Batman besides Batman.

He has a lot of room to play.

But.

After playing the role.

He suddenly discovered that the two-faced man he played seemed to be led by Chen Ping.

certainly.

There is also the female number one Gillen, who plays the heroine Rachel.

As the leading female character in the play, Rachel, whom she played, was originally an independent and thoughtful woman.

But.

After playing opposite Chen Ping, all her previous confidence was completely destroyed.

"Everyone, what do you want from me?"

Sitting in front of the three people, Chen Ping asked with a smile.

"I think you should be more restrained in the subsequent scenes."

"Convergence, what do you mean?"

"There is no need to be so aggressive. You will find that you have made a lot of enemies."

"Is that you?"

"It's not just us, maybe there are many more. In the future, you will still have to hang out in Hollywood."

"Is this threatening me?"

"This is not a threat to you, we just want you to know the rules of Hollywood. You have to know that you are the fourth male lead, you are not the protagonist."

"Haha, it seems, everyone, I didn't steal your show."

The entertainment industry is indeed not a kind place.

It’s true on the domestic side, and even more so in Hollywood.

but.

Chen Ping had already been prepared.

Then he said: "I think you should find a director. Because he is not a traditional Batman in this movie. Didn't you see his name? The Dark Knight... This movie inherently has a dark flavor."

"We will naturally look for a director, but we also hope you remember your role."

Alun, the male number 2 who plays Harvey, glared at Chen Ping.

Because the scene just finished filming, Harvey the Two-Face has not yet undressed.

At this time, a big eye was highlighted on the right side of his face, which was really scary.

certainly.

Alun wanted the same effect.

He just wanted to scare Chen Ping.

But how could it scare Chen Ping like this?

Chen Ping said calmly: "Chen Lun, do you know why the clown can influence so many people?"

"Because he was very shameless and used a lot of dirty tricks."

"No."

Chen Ping shook his head: "Although the clown is shameless, shamelessness is not his most powerful method. He can influence so many people, and he understands people's hearts best. Just like, I understand you."

"you know me?"

Alun smiled and said, "How do you understand me?"

"Of course, I hear you saying every night that Christian's Batman is trash and you should be Batman."

"how do you know?"

Alun said subconsciously.

After he finished speaking, he realized that he had made a mistake.

Then he said angrily: "Get out of here, I didn't say that."

Then, he quickly explained to Christian: "Christian, don't listen to him, I really didn't say anything."

How could Christian, who was just on one side, listen to Alun.

Alun's reaction just now was very obvious.

He said coldly: "Alun, if you really want to play Batman, how about you talk to the director later?"

"No, he's talking nonsense, I don't think so."

Chen Ping smiled inexplicably.

For such a person, Chen Ping has not used the investigative eye in the system for a long time.

Detection Eye is a skill that can detect actor data.

At the beginning, this skill was only used by Chen Ping to provide basic data for actors.

But as Chen Ping's level increases, this data provides more and more information.

For example, mind reading.

But under normal circumstances, Chen Ping doesn't want to use this skill.

But at this moment, under the threat of others, Chen Ping didn't mind using it.

"Chen Ping, don't provoke us."

Seeing that A Lun was driven crazy by Chen Ping, Gillen, who played the female lead, said.

"I don't."

Chen Ping shook his head: "Just like I wouldn't say, you are dating one actor and at the same time you are ambiguous with another actor. Haha, your private life is really exciting."

Chen Ping finished his words.

At this time, Gillen screamed: "No, no... you slandered me."

"Don't be so serious, it's just a joke."

"Okay, thank you for the coffee."

"goodbye."

Chen Ping waved towards the three people.

But at this moment, the three of them were looking at each other with hatred in their eyes.
