Lu Yuan does not pay attention to the ups and downs in China, nor does he pay attention to what happened during this period.
At this moment, he just wants to play the role of the clown well...
Is this role easy to play?
No!
This role is very difficult to play, especially the absurdity, madness, and playful irony that are deeply rooted in people's hearts.
Ordinary people simply can't act well.
So……
Does the Joker have any background in the comics?
Some say he is Batman's brother, symbolizing one black and one white. Some say he is just a lucky psychotic lunatic. Some say he was born in a slum and was used to seeing many dark things when he was young. In the end, he breeds...
A crazy personality...
but……
There is no real background of the Joker's birth in the comics. When he appeared, he was Batman's opponent.
In the original world, there once was an actor named Heath Ledger who played the Joker. For a long time after the performance, he was rated as the best clown since Heath Ledger.
Later, until another actor appeared and broke this statement...
The Joker that Lu Yuan is going to play at this moment is Heath Ledger's version of the Joker.
wrong!
Not any version of the Joker, but my own version of the Joker.
Yes!
Lu Yuan wants to challenge this role.
………………………………
Staying in a room, Lu Yuan calmly looked at the sunset on the horizon.
As soon as he closes his eyes, the Joker's laughter from "Batman 2" and his unrestrained and unpredictable expression will appear in his mind.
The expression seems to contain too many things.
If you laugh, then please laugh till you go crazy.
When the sun set and the earth began to be gradually shrouded in darkness, Lu Yuan stood up and turned around to see a line of words he had written on his desk.
He took a deep breath and walked to the tall mirror next to him.
Then……
"Hahahaha, hahahahaha, haha..."
Without warning, he saw himself laughing in the mirror, and his voice sounded extremely harsh.
After laughing for a while, Lu Yuan's smile stopped instantly.
Then stare at yourself in the mirror.
My own eyes in the mirror became red, and I was staring at myself.
His eyes gradually became fierce.
The more he stared at him, the more fierce he became.
It was as if he would rush out of the mirror and tear himself into pieces at any moment.
Under dim light, there is only one window in the room and the door is closed, accompanied by the sound of running water in the bathroom.
Everything looks so weird and cold.
It's like a scene from a horror movie.
In the fierce eyes, there seemed to be thousands of countless voices roaring and roaring...
I was so depressed that I couldn't even breathe.
Then……
"Hahahahaha, hahaha, hahaha."
Lu Yuan suddenly laughed again.
In a room alone, Lu Yuan in the mirror laughed as if he was crazy. Without warning, even Lu Yuan himself didn't know why he was laughing.
It was clear that the situation was tense just a moment ago, so why is it so... at this moment?
Laughing?
He has stayed in this room for more than a month. What he does every day is look at the mirror and smile, and then stare at the sunset in the sky in a daze.
No one said a word to him, and he had no means of entertainment.
Everything is on lockdown.
Lu Yuan still remembers the day not long after "Star Wars" was released, Thomson, who should have been immersed in many glory, suddenly found him.
He said he didn't want to live in his own shadow and wanted to try to see if he could do it.
A month later, he wrote the script for "Dawn" and asked Lu Yuan for $100 million. At this time, filming was in full swing.
Although I don’t know what the future box office will be like, at least Thomson is trying to be himself and doesn’t want to live in anyone’s shadow.
In fact, the same goes for Lu Yuan.
Once upon a time, what the world originally gave Lu Yuan seemed to be wealth. This kind of wealth made Lu Yuan live a very good life, and he maintained a mentality of making money, marrying a wife and having children for a long time.
But as each day passed and after experiencing one thing after another, Lu Yuan began to have a little different change deep in his heart.
The things in the original world were like pressure, making Lu Yuan very uncomfortable, and they were also like a cage. Lu Yuan was trapped in this cage and could not get out.
He can live a good life, he can have things that ordinary people can never imagine, and he can live in glory for a long time.
He has thought more than once that he has truly exhausted all his talents. Who will he be if he has nothing left?
What is the meaning of my life?
You always have to prove something. Even if no one witnesses it, at least you can still witness yourself, right?
Although, this seems a bit overestimating...
"Hahahahaha!"
When he laughed this time, the laughter and expression of Heath Ledger's version of the Joker in the original world appeared in his mind.
Echoing again and again in the room, Lu Yuan seemed to have merged with that clown.
Slowly...
Lu Yuan in the mirror closed his eyes and shook his head, as if there was an unwilling flame in his body, attacking everything in his mind.
He is himself!
He is no one but himself!
He is Lu Yuan!
It will always be just Lu Yuan!
Countless sounds echoed around him, and Lu Yuan in the mirror began to dance. There seemed to be some melody that was echoing along with this dance...
He was still smiling, his expression gradually began to distort, and at the same time he felt the shackles of a breakthrough.
Countless things, like monsters and nightmares, echoed around him.
When he opened his eyes again, he looked around, and then he found that the whole world had turned gray-white.
He went to the bathroom and washed his face, then looked up and saw a strange version of himself in the bathroom mirror.
He was not smiling, but he seemed to be smiling in the mirror.
Capricious, violent, playful, crazy yet calm...
He tried to open his mouth into a smile.
This is a very strange state...
call……
"My hair seems very messy..."
"Um."
“But it’s very comfortable!”
"Um……"
"..."
He nodded to himself, then returned to bed and closed his eyes.
………………………………
"What's our third child's name?"
"Just call me Lu Zhou!"
"Why?"
"I don't know, I feel like our child will be a college bully in the future..."
"ah?"
"..."
"..."
In sleep.
Vaguely, Lu Yuan heard a voice.
When he opened his eyes again, he seemed to see another person exactly like himself teasing the child.
Lu Yuan looked around.
Then, he found that he had had such a dream of the original world again.
This is a hospital.
It should be the county hospital.
Then, Lu Yuan saw a woman lying on the bed caressing the newborn child.
Beside the bed are the parents from the original world...
They smiled happily and watched the birth of this child...
Everyone's focus is on the child.
Everything is so happy.
This is a small life.
Lu Yuan looked at it and suddenly laughed.
Really good.
Afterwards, Lu Yuan left the room and came to the hospital lobby. After leaving the lobby, he saw this once familiar world again.
Then……
"The mysterious screenwriter of "King Kong" and "Titans" is actually in this hospital. This time we must make a headline!"
"right!"
"Their child was born?"
"It seems like he was born!"
"..."
Lu Yuan saw several sneaky reporters running through his body and hurriedly towards the ward.
"I really am not!"
"You got the wrong person!"
"..."
Not long after, another Lu Yuan came out of the ward helplessly.
Although the other Lu Yuan denied it, the reporters were still extremely excited.
They didn't believe it, but asked all kinds of questions. The other Lu Yuan finally could only reluctantly nod and admit, and then said that he would say something publicly next.
After finally dealing with these reporters and watching them leave the hospital happily, another Lu Yuan took out a cigarette and came to the side and started smoking.
"Why……"
"I just want to live an ordinary life, and I never want to be a famous screenwriter... It would be great to have a wife and children on the hot bed!"
"Why……"
"I really don't want to be famous!"
Under the sunshine, Lu Yuan watched helplessly as the other Lu Yuan touched his beard sadly, and then looked deeply into the distance.
Then……
He let out a long sigh, looking like he had seen through the world of mortals.
This look is pretentious to the extreme.
How can there be such shameless people in this world?
For some reason, Lu Yuan wanted to beat him.
At this moment, the other Lu Yuan turned his head as if he felt something.
He looked in the direction of Lu Yuan.
"Thanks!"
"No matter the time, no matter the place, no matter what moment..."
"I wish my loved ones everything is well..."
After finishing speaking, he put out the butt of his cigarette and turned around and walked towards the ward.
Lu Yuan looked at his back.
Then, the whole world fell into darkness.
When Lu Yuan woke up again, it was already daytime.
"I hope everything is well with you too!"
Lu Yuan stood up and opened the door.
He suddenly felt that the sunlight outside the door was very bright...
When he really got used to it, he saw Fatty Wei standing at the door.
The corners of his mouth curved and he smiled unconsciously.
"Director Wei, I kept you waiting for a long time."
"A Yuan...you...are you okay?" Fatty Wei asked timidly when he saw Lu Yuan coming out.
"fine."
"You...are you really Lu Yuan?"
"Not me or who?"
"Forehead……"
"It's ready to shoot!"
"ah……"
Fatty Wei's heart trembled.
Fatty Wei looked at Lu Yuan with the strange smile in front of him, and somehow felt stranger than ever before.
At the same time, there is a sense of fear and depression coming from deep within.
Although he was just standing there, he looked extremely calm.
but……
Fatty Wei had the feeling that Lu Yuan would get into trouble at any time.
This is something that comes from deep within the soul...
