In Beverly Hills, Ivan's car was parked next to Sunset Boulevard. He picked up the high-definition camera on the passenger seat, got out of the car and hung it around his neck. He came to a nearby psychological clinic, paid for a copy of the Los Angeles Times, and sat on the green I sat on a bench nearby and waited patiently.
Within a few minutes, a black Escalade parked in front of the psychological clinic. Ivan stood up and put down the newspaper, picked up the camera, and pointed the lens there.
The rear door of the Escalade opened, and Martin, dressed in casual clothes, got out of the car and walked slowly towards the clinic door.
Ivan knew very well that Martin had specially set aside time for him to take pictures, so he quickly pressed the shutter button.
After a few clicks, Martin disappeared from the camera lens and walked into the clinic.
Ivan put down the camera and took a look at the photo he had just taken. He perfectly captured the picture of Martin, who was worried and full of sorrow, with the psychological clinic as the background.
Ivan was very satisfied with the effect and waited until he took photos of Martin's appearance and sold them to TMZ.
It's a pity that he is a super bad student. He can't look at pictures and write words, and he can't make up news. He can only sell the pictures directly to Jody.
Ivan sat back on the bench and read the newspaper.
There is an entertainment news article above. Serbian actress Shibi Brachik submitted materials to the court and prepared to file for divorce on the grounds that her relationship with Christian Bale had broken down.
In the psychological clinic, a nurse led Martin to the door of the clinic, knocked gently on the door, and then opened the door to let Martin in.
Martin entered the consulting room. Sitting behind the consultation table was a female doctor who looked to be in her late twenties.
Laura did not wear a white coat, but wore a casual casual suit and ordinary plain glasses, which made her look very easy-going. Her long golden brown hair was pulled back casually, like a neighbor's big sister.
"Mr. Davis, please sit down." She was also observing Martin.
Martin pulled out a chair and sat down: "Can I put away all my disguises with you?"
"Of course." Laura said: "There are no monitoring or recording equipment here, and nothing you say will leak out. I am a psychiatrist and I have strict professional codes."
"Great, ha..." Martin's face was not painted, but his grin still contained the unique madness of a clown.
Laura subconsciously turned the pen in her hand, and just when she was about to speak, Martin had already beaten her to it.
"There are several well-known senior doctors in the clinic. Do you know why I chose you?" he asked.
Laura had a feeling that this man’s heart was clouded, so she followed his words and asked: “I’m also curious, why?”
Martin laughed: "Because you are young, beautiful and inexperienced, and are most likely to be influenced by me."
Laura also smiled, her smile bright, like the sunshine at noon in Los Angeles: "Why do you want to influence me? Or do you need my help?"
Martin opened his arms and said loudly: "I need someone who can grasp the psychology of women to help me build an army of beauties."
Looking at the person in front of her, and thinking of his status as a Hollywood star, Laura was disdainful in her heart, but she said: "Want to have fun with you?"
Martin laughed again: "Of course not, what you said is too vulgar! Doctor Laura, don't tell me that you can only think about the nonsense about men and women."
He was very serious and serious: "America deserves a man of quality! My plan is to lead an army of beauties into Washington, capture the White Room, and dissolve the American Federation."
Laura had seen many people with mental illness. This was the first time she saw someone like this. Although she controlled herself and wanted to hold it back, she still looked at Martin more or less like a madman.
Martin came over to pave the way for next year. He had to stay in the psychology clinic for a while and chat with the psychiatrist, so he specially chose this beautiful doctor who had just been able to treat patients independently.
At least it's eye-catching and can make people laugh.
There is no way, it was infected by Nicholson.
Martin added: "This will at least reduce the number of wars in the world by half. If I make such a great contribution, I will be able to win the Nobel Peace Prize!"
Laura felt that this man had severe delusions, so she decided to break the fantasy and make him more realistic, saying: "The president of the United States has a greater chance of winning the Nobel Peace Prize than you do."
Martin asked: "Please give me an idea on how to get the United States to disband."
Laura didn’t answer, but asked: “Why do you have such an idea?”
Martin answered the question inappropriately: "I'm tired and want to take a nap."
After saying that, without asking Laura if she wanted to, he moved to the couch and lay down directly, closing his eyes.
Laura was quite helpless and could only shake her head, took a book, and started reading.
Martin completely emptied his mind and lay down for half an hour, during which he really fell asleep for 20 minutes.
He really paid a lot for the marketing of The Dark Knight.
When half an hour was up, Martin sat up, picked up his coat, and said, "I'm leaving."
Laura asked: “Is the problem solved?”
Martin smiled horribly: "I've told you so much, and I feel a little better." Before he left the house, he turned back and said, "Doctor, I'll come see you another day, and let's talk about how to make the world more chaotic."
Laura couldn't refuse the patient: "Mr. Davis, you can come over anytime."
Martin went out and walked downstairs with Bruce who was guarding the door. He would come for treatment on time later.
Bruce asked, "You didn't scare anyone, did you?"
Martin said: "I had a great chat with the doctor and talked about some great ideals and aspirations. The doctor deeply recognized me and may help me in the future."
After exiting the door of the psychological clinic, Martin and Bruce walked towards the parking area.
On the other side, Ivan raised the camera again to shoot, using the door of the psychological clinic as the background, including Martin in the shot.
He didn't stop pressing the shutter until the Escalade drove away.
Ivan pulled up the photos and looked at them to make sure there were no problems. He walked towards the parking place. As he walked, he took out his mobile phone and dialed Jody's number: "It's me, Big Ivan. I just took a few photos, Martin - Davis went to see a psychiatrist, do you want one there?"
When he heard about Martin Davis, Jodi immediately became interested: "Of course, let's meet at the same place."
Ten minutes later, she arrived at a park, saw Ivan's car in the park parking lot, and honked the car horn.
The driver's door opened, and Ivan came over with a box and got into the passenger seat of the car.
Jodi took the laptop and turned it on, stretched out his hand: "Where are Martin's photos?"
Ivan opened the box and handed the card reader to Jodi, not forgetting to say a few words of advice from Bruce: "Martin Davis hasn't been seen in Los Angeles for a few months. I heard that he was going to film The Dark Knight. It’s the Joker, and I remember Nicholson saying something about the Joker.”
Jodi plugged in the card reader, waited for the computer to recognize it, and said, "The clown is too dark and will cause trouble to people. Martin is too young and difficult to control?"
Seeing that she remembered it, Ivan nodded and said, "Yes, that's it!" He asked, "Martin suddenly went to see a psychiatrist, could it be related to this?"
"It's probably related. Nicholson has a lot of experience and his words are not unreasonable." Jodi clicked on the photo and looked at it carefully.
The first few pictures show Martin entering the psychological clinic.
His face was gloomy, giving people a very strange feeling. Anyway, it didn't look normal and made people feel uncomfortable.
In the later photo of Martin coming out of the psychological clinic, although his expression is still serious, the uncomfortable feeling is much lighter.
Ivan added: "The contrast between the before and after photos is particularly obvious."
Jody agreed: "That's true." She said directly: "Make a price."
Ivan quoted a price.
The two parties have cooperated many times, and Jody did not bargain. He directly wrote a check and handed it to Ivan. After he got off the car, he drove back to the company, looked at the photos for a while, and found out the news about Nicholson angrily criticizing Martin. Once again, I looked for news about the Dark Knight on the Internet.
There are many news on the Internet that Bale, who plays Batman, also encountered some psychological and mental problems.
Batman and Joker actors are mentally ill?
The crew also made an announcement, but vaguely said that Bell was affected by the character.
Jodi's curiosity was immediately aroused. What kind of confrontation did Batman and the Joker in The Dark Knight go through that caused both the leading actors to have psychological problems?
In the 1989 Batman movie, it seems that Michael Keaton and Jack Nicholson did not suffer from this situation.
Jody checked out some news about the crew, combined with the photos, and began to write news to accompany the photos.
Although TMZ is a gossip entertainment website, it has high requirements for the authenticity of news.
Just like Jodi can actively plan to create news about Heath Ledger taking drugs, but he cannot fabricate it out of thin air.
In some ways, Jodi and the others pay more attention to "the authenticity of news" than the reporters who report on social affairs.
"Martin Davis recently went to a psychological clinic for consultation. It was suspected that he had psychological and spiritual problems while filming the new film "The Dark Knight." Nicholson once warned Martin that the role of the Joker is too dark. Once he gets too involved in the film, he will It is very likely that you will encounter trouble..."
Without more evidence, Jodi's news can only stop there.
Then, she first uploaded Martin’s news and related supporting pictures.
Then he dragged out the news that Bell also suffered from psychological and mental problems and paired it with the news about Martin.
As soon as the TMZ news came out, it quickly attracted the attention of many people.
Some members of the media called the psychological clinic and asked about Martin's visit.
The clinic only confirmed that Martin had come for treatment and declined all other questions.
The media can only catch what is happening.
Some, such as TMZ, once again unearthed the news about Nicholson's anger against Martin and Nicholson's visit to Atlanta, and listed them for comparison. They believe that Nicholson's attitude changed significantly before and after, and it is very likely that Martin was involved in shaping the role of the Joker. , did something that made him change his attitude.
But the reporters who went to interview Nicholson got nothing. Nicholson just said that you will know when the movie is released.
There are also fans of Martin who went to his blog and the official website of the Coke God Cult to ask Martin if there is a problem.
Martin's reply was vague: "The problem is not particularly serious."
