"Hu Chi... Hu Chi..."

Stout panting sounded in a simple gym. A more than 20-year-old dark-haired young man turned off the treadmill, picked up a large white towel, and walked out of the gym while wiping his sweat.

He bypassed the not-so-big living room, opened his studio, and walked in.

There is a long wooden table against the wall in the studio. On the wall behind the wooden table is a huge photo frame. The person in the photo frame is painted in an exaggerated clown outfit, and the big red mouth seems to be bleeding.

Standing quietly in front of the wooden table, this young man named James Holmes stared blankly at the clown. This is his favorite movie character. Chaos, that's what he believes in!

On the table below the photo frame are tools for creating chaos - guns, bullets and bombs!

From dropping out to unemployment to now, James? Holmes has had enough of this society, only chaos is his pursuit.

He was born and raised in San Diego, California, the most populous city in the United States, close to Mexico.

Although California has a well-developed entertainment industry such as "Hollywood", since Arnold Schwarzenegger became the governor in 2003, he has been in a panic of unemployment.

James? Holmes has an extremely bright mind. He has always been a top student in his studies. The teacher at Westview High School he attended called him a student who was "silent but absolutely superhuman in IQ".

After graduating from high school, James? Holmes was admitted to the University of California, Los Angeles to study neurology. After receiving a bachelor's degree, Holmes went directly to a master's degree.

But after graduating, this genius who "may bring a breakthrough in American neurology" in the mouth of the professor of neurology has also become a member of the unemployed army in California.There was nothing to do for a year or so, which made James Holmes, who had always had excellent grades in school, stop going out to find a job, and turned to "moping at home every day".

The only thing that can accompany James Holmes is the movie.

When he saw the clown in "The Dark Knight", the high-achieving student who graduated from neurology suddenly realized, and instantly found his spiritual belief and life pursuit.

But want to achieve such a pursuit.Money is essential.

Without money, it is impossible to panic a city like an idol. James Holmes was very distressed by this, so he had to go to a bar to get drunk every day, and became a famous drunk on the streets of Los Angeles.

Perhaps it was luck enough that James Holmes passed out drunk on the side of the road when he came back from a drunk in a bar one day.After being targeted by a private detective, the other party reached a deal with him after a period of necessary investigation.

Thinking of that deal, James? Holmes admired himself as a born criminal genius, under the careful planning and implementation of his high IQ.Until now, no one has discovered that Vin Diesel's death in a car accident was not an accident at all!

Such an accident caused a huge sensation, which gave James Holmes a certain degree of psychological satisfaction, and made him further believe that he naturally had all the conditions to become a clown. The accident also brought him large sums of money in return.In the face of huge amounts of money, such a recognized accident could no longer satisfy James Holmes' psychological needs.

He needs to create a bigger mess.Preferably as a clown who can send a whole city into a panic.

With money, too many things can be done in this country. James Holmes joined a club of firearms military enthusiasts a year ago.Learn to shoot as well as routine military maneuvers.

Through illegal channels on the Internet, James? Holmes also purchased about 6000 rounds of ammunition, half of which are Glock pistol bullets, and more than 300 rounds of powerful shotgun bullets.

After buying these bullets online, James Holmes, who is very proficient in chemistry, made a chain bomb of "unimaginable complexity" at home. These bombs densely covered the walls and ceiling of Holmes' bedroom and later bought them. Armed with smoke grenades, a riot shield, black body armor, knee pads, neck pads, and wrist pads, and owning a Colt AR-15 carbine, he almost turned his home into a small arsenal.

Picking up an AR-15 assault rifle, James? Holmes skillfully disassembled and maintained it. Now he is ready. Just waiting for the right moment, he can destroy the entire city like a clown. into panic.

What is the right time?

James Holmes turned on the TV, and it wasn't long before an ad for a movie appeared.

"In less than ten days, the most important film in the summer of 2012, "The Dark Knight Rises" will be released in North America."

"Looking back at the first two installments in the series: Batman Begins, about Batman's unfortunate childhood and traumatized youth, gave the superhero a believable genesis; The Dark Knight Extract the darkness and light of human nature from the thrilling confrontation between good and evil, and push the comic film to a new peak, which has been regarded as a classic handed down by countless movie fans."

"Now, Duke Rosenberg, who has been regarded as a god-level director by fanatical fans, has made another move, concluding the entire trilogy into an epic and magnificent ending. No wonder fans are eagerly looking forward to "The Dark Knight Rises" .”

"Few films have garnered as much attention before release as The Dark Knight Rises, with trailers breaking record downloads, pre-sale tickets being snapped up, and even the length of the film being the subject of hype. Normal Movie fans are infected by the enthusiasm of 'Bat fans' and 'Duke fans', and everyone follows up any clues leaked from the film, every prop, every photo, and every detail of every trailer can trigger everyone's attention. Endless guesses and associations about the direction of the plot and the fate of the characters."

"In The Dark Knight Rises, Batman will be in a desperate situation like never before. He will be seriously injured, he will be alone, and he will even be imprisoned. An evil leader with superior wisdom and physical strength takes control of the situation. Riot, destruction and destruction spread across Gotham City, but in the end, the Dark Knight will rise, evil will be punished, and the trilogy will conclude with a heart-pounding climactic battle that marks the end of a legendary series. An end, but also a bright new beginning."

"Are your blood pumping and you can't wait to see The Dark Knight Rises?"

When he saw this, James Holmes had already assembled the AR-15 assault rifle in his hand, raised the muzzle, pulled the trigger, and the sound of the firing pin hitting the empty chamber sounded...

He has found the perfect moment!

With May approaching, Warner Bros. also held the first full-length test screening of "The Dark Knight Rises," and the media began to frantically tout the film.

"The film's tight rhythm and confusing plot quickly brought the audience into the dark Gotham City; and the over 80 minutes of IMAX footage, as well as a large number of action and explosion scenes, created a majestic epic atmosphere; In addition, the ups and downs of Batman's fate, as well as the echo and bite of the story and the plot of the first two episodes, make "The Dark Knight Rises" vividly painted as the finale of the Batman prequel trilogy."

The "New York Times" solemnly recommends this film to the whole United States in a long way.

"Duke Rosenberg used an IMAX camera to shoot 89 minutes of IMAX footage in the film, showing a lot of fighting and explosion scenes. The IMAX screen not only brings a larger image, but also gives the film a style that surpasses other The grandeur of a superhero movie."

"In The Dark Knight Rises, there is a rare 'Grand Army Battle' in a superhero movie. Thousands of good and evil confront each other, and Gotham City is engulfed in bloody battle. In addition, Batman's new mount— —The Bat fighter also made a wonderful appearance in the film. The fighter is 9 meters long, and its design is partly inspired by the famous Apache gunship and Harrier vertical take-off and landing fighter. The fighter can take off and land vertically, and it is also very flexible in shuttling between tall buildings , and the scenes of a few air flights are impressive."

"This film brings together many powerful actors, Christian Bale, Gary Oldman, Michael Caine, etc. Needless to say, the newly joined Gal Gadot, Sienna Miller, Margot Robbie and James Franco also performed well. As the most important villain, Bane played by Dwayne Johnson is not as impressive as the clown played by Heath Ledger in "The Dark Knight" Unforgettable, but also commendable."

"In general, every actor in the film has performed above the standard. If the group portrait of "The Avengers" is a "horizontal development" from one superhero to another, then "The Dark Knight Rises" The group portrait scene is a 'vertical development' from superheroes to ordinary police officers, and even ordinary citizens."

One week before the release of the film, the publicity and marketing of "The Dark Knight Rises" entered the craziest stage. News about the film can be seen everywhere on platforms such as newspapers, magazines, TV, radio, the Internet, and outdoor advertisements. Do everything possible to arouse the public's interest and attract people to pre-purchase movie tickets or walk into the theater to buy tickets at that time.

Neither Warner Bros. nor Duke would be so foolish as to think that the film should naturally appeal to fans and thus relax their marketing campaigns, but adopted a very aggressive strategy.

"The Dark Knight Rises" will be screened in North America and nearly a hundred countries and regions around the world on May [-]th. The promotion and marketing spread from North America and quickly spread to every market where it was released.

However, some things will always happen unexpectedly. Just in May, Duke received an email similar to a "death threat" in the fuel tank that was made public. (to be continued~^~)
