"Cut! It's over!" Looking at Michael Pitt and Natalie standing at the door of the house, Wang Yang smiled and clapped his hands, gave a thumbs up, and praised the two: "Very good act!" Nancy next to him whispered to him: "It's time for lunch." Wang Yang nodded, glanced at the surrounding Vare-First and other dozen film crews, and shouted with a smile: "Everyone has worked hard, it's lunchtime!"

Everyone on the lawn cheered and began to clean up the work at hand, Natalie turned her big belly back into a big waist with the help of a stylist, Michael Pitt drank mineral water handed by Joshua, the big fat man, Harry George, muttered "I'm starving to death, I want to eat four hamburgers...... while sorting out the camera equipment" A flying look flashed on his fat bearded face.

It's mid-July, nearly a month has passed since the start of "Juno", and the filming is progressing quite well, after filming the exterior of the town, Juno's home, and the big house of wealthy adoptive parents, and a few small scenes such as a grocery store, an abortion clinic, and Poly's home, only a few small scenes in the script are left in the script, such as a school, a hospital, and a supermarket. The process is faster than expected, if it weren't for Wang Yang's multi-effect repeated shooting on film, I'm afraid "Juno" would have been completed.

Although there are different "good-take" for the same set of shots, different performances of the actors, and different angles and techniques of photography, this does not mean that the film cost exceeds the budget, which is precisely due to the low number of NGs. The performances of the main supporting actors, including Anne Hathaway, are very outstanding, this is because Wang Yang attaches great importance to their "true performances" when auditioning, as long as they don't forget the words and don't laugh, The move is correct, almost it's okay, and what surprised and expected him was that the two leading actors with the least number of NG were the two leading actors, Natalie and Michael Pitt, Natalie had been preparing for nearly a year, and Michael Pitt had been preparing for so long, his speculation and portrayal of Poly may not be as crazy as Natalie was to Juno, but he definitely experienced it, coupled with his obvious performance skills, all made him Poly in front of the camera. His excellent performance also stimulated Natalie's acting nerves, and under this "chemistry", her Juno became more and more "godly", and even made Wang Yang want to reshoot some of the previous scenes.

For Michael's performance, whether it is normal or hateful, Natalie praised it several times, for example, she asked Wang Yang strangely: "Where did you find him? This guy acted great!" Wang Yang shrugged and said, "It's on the streets of New York." ”

"What?" Wang Yang looked at Natalie and Hathaway in front of him suspiciously, and said, "Not a veggie burger?" Natalie nodded expressionlessly, and said in a somewhat unhappy tone: "Yes, I have a big piece of steak in that one." Hathaway's big eyes were also a little depressed, and she frowned slightly, "Mine is a chicken leg burger." Wang Yang took a bite of the hamburger in his hand, got up from the chair, and said vaguely: "How did you do it! But two beauties, you should find the field director, I am the director, not the burger producer." ”

Saying that, he still raised his voice and shouted into the crowd on the lawn in the distance, "Jill, Jill, come here!" It's been a month, and no one in the crew knows that Natalie and Hathaway are both staunch vegetarians, and who doesn't know that hamburgers and pizza are good, and they all need two servings of vegetarians. Nothing in this hamburger lunch was vegetarian.

Hearing Wang Yang's roar, Jill Saidus, the field supervisor over there, walked over quickly, followed by Joshua, who was watching the bustle. After learning about the situation, Jill Thaddeus looked at Natalie and Hathaway, who were unhappy, and then looked at Wang Yang, and said helplessly: "I don't know, the daily menu is fixed, it should be the person in the fast food restaurant who misplaced it." Wang Yang also understood that this was not his responsibility, and said: "Then let the fast food restaurant send two vegetarian burgers again, they have to be responsible." Jill Thaddeus nodded and left to get in touch.

"Can't you just have a meal?" watched Joshua's lively opinion, he looked a little gloating, and said, "I mean, take out those steaks, chicken legs or something, isn't it vegetarian?" Natalie didn't speak, silently moved a folding stool and opened it and sat down, Hathaway pursed her mouth and shook her head, "Then I'd rather be hungry." ”

"Joshua, go to the convenience store up there and get some vegan cookies first. Wang Yang said, then looked at the two girls and asked, "Are cookies okay?" Both said OK, and Natalie added: "It's vegan, no eggs, no milk, and no honey." ”

Joshua took two steps back in a daze, and said in astonishment, "Why me?" Wang Yang stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder comfortingly, and said with a smile: "Who made you right in front of me." As he spoke, he tapped his eyes with his right index and middle fingers, and crossed Joshua to make a "I'm staring at you" motion. Joshua gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, okay, I'm the field manager, I'll buy it!" He took a deep breath and turned around and walked in the direction of the convenience store, singing while adjusting his mood: "We are the champions, we are the champions-"

Wang Yang smiled, the damn Lakers won the season championship again, he shouted loudly: "Man, go faster! show your speed!" Seeing Joshua running not far away, he sat back in his chair and continued to nibble on the beef burger, and smiled at the two girls: "Fifteen minutes, you can eat." ”

Looking at Wang Yang munching on the other side of the beef, Natalie frowned, and stopped talking, and after a while, she still said: "Yang, don't you think it's cruel to eat meat like this?" Hathaway seemed to have endured it for a long time, and said, "Very cruel!" Wang Yang was stunned and stopped to look at them. Natalie said, "That piece of beef, it comes from the body of a cow, that cow was originally a living being, it has feelings, it has its own family and friends, but humans kill it and become the beef in your mouth." ”

"Uh, hmm...... What should I say?" Wang Yang looked down at the hamburger in his hand. Natalie looked at him with a serious face and persuaded: "When you start to be a vegetarian, you will find the beauty of this world, and you will feel a great tranquility in your heart......" She saw Wang Yang take another bite of the burger, and immediately asked loudly: "Think about it, vegetarian food can provide us with sufficient nutrition and energy, why do we kill lives?"

Wang Yang shrugged his shoulders, chewed the burger in his mouth, and said: "I don't tend to be a vegetarian, but I don't like to kill either, you know 'Junzi Yuan Cook', so I didn't become a chef, I became a director." Hearing his Chinese, Hathaway looked puzzled, and Natalie asked puzzledly, "What does that mean?" Wang Yang said in surprise: "Oh, I thought you would learn all the Chinese in half a year." He smiled at Hathaway and explained, "This nerd knows Chinese. ”

"The ostensible meaning of this sentence is 'a good man, don't kill everything that is alive with your own hands,' but it actually means to be merciful. Wang Yang smiled, ate the last bite of the burger in his hand, and said: "Actually, I don't agree with this sentence very much, my grandfather and my father are very good people." ”

At this time, Joshua, who was carrying a few boxes of cookies, ran back out of breath, he handed the food to Natalie and Hathaway, propped his knees and said, "Vegan, all plant-based cookies...... He looked at Wang Yang and the two girls with a smile, and said, "Guess what the convenience store owner said?"

Natalie lifted the cookie package and glanced at it, and said lightly, "It's not expired." She looked at Wang Yang while unpacking the package, and said, "If you don't kill them yourself, then you can eat them? Is this kindness? What's the difference? In order to reduce the guilt and guilt in her heart?" Hathaway also looked at Wang Yang, and Joshua was very puzzled, and couldn't understand what they were saying for a while.

Isn't this topic over yet? Wang Yang frowned and thought about it, why don't you eat a vegetarian diet? Looking at the serious Natalie, he became serious and said, "Do you know Taoism? Maybe you should read some Taoist books." Natalie sighed in disbelief and said, "You also read books? I wonder how a person who spends the whole night watching a ball game reads? ”

It seemed to mean that she was short, but Natalie was not angry, she laughed, snapped her fingers, and said in Juno's tone, "Wow! Seeing that Wang Yang smiled and had nothing to say, she smiled and said, "Fifteen consecutive strikes!" She took out a biscuit and ate it, returning to the previous topic and said: "I know Taoism, but I don't know much about it, what do you want to say?"

"To put it simply, you should know animism, which is also a Taoist idea. Wang Yang organized his speech and said: "Everything in the world has life, feelings, and souls, so I won't talk about stones, I say plants, do you think trees, flowers, and grasses are life? How do you know that they have no soul? You are eating them." Natalie bit the biscuit in her mouth and said disdainfully: "Hey, you are sophistry! This is very naïve!" Wang Yang smiled: "Wait a minute, what I want to say is not this, what I want to say is nature." ”

"First of all, I never thought of humans as the masters of the earth, we were just a part of it, a part of nature. And there is a part of nature called eating. After a pause, Wang Yang looked at Natalie and continued: "Have you watched the animal world of the Discovery Channel, wolves eat sheep, lions eat bison, and giraffes eat leaves...... Some humans eat meat, some humans eat vegetarians, maybe that's the nature of this world, but we shouldn't be a psychology of conquest, we eat it, it's the continuation and integration of life, and we thank it. But what we eat is only their **, their souls are still free, they return to God, God, Jesus, the Creator...... their souls will be at peace. ”

"So the focus is not on eating plants or animals, it's about our attitude. Wang Yang closed his eyes and said, "Just like the piece of beef just now, I got it, and I also fused with the cow, let me listen to its voice in the sky." Oh, it said to me, 'Man, cherish my flesh, I'm so happy with God.'" Natalie frowned and muttered, "That's what you imagined." ”

Wang Yang spread his hands angrily, of course he hoped that this was not an imagination, but like Pandora, the ideal world in "Avatar", he could do spiritual communication with each other by touching his hair, but unfortunately, the place where he was was on earth was the earth. There are a lot of Taoist ideas in "Avatar", this is because James Cameron read a lot of Taoist books when he was in college, and later when he created the planet Pandora, Taoist ideas also became one of his considerations, such as animism, heaven and water, etc.

Thinking of "Avatar" and Taoism, Wang Yang finally said: "We kill and eat, this is not our choice, this is a natural choice." Go with the flow, let yourself be a part of nature, communicate and merge with nature, the animals and plants that we eat, everything in the world, this is the unity of nature and man. ”

Natalie munched on the biscuit in silence, thought for a while, and then suddenly said, "Interesting, is it a combination of man and nature?" She didn't mean to argue, and asked very seriously: "We are so different from other animals, we learn, we think, we get rid of animal nature, do you think this is natural?" Wang Yang frowned, and said: "I think human beings will be so unique, it is originally a natural arrangement......"

Joshua, who was sitting on the stool next to him, was very bored and wanted to leave, but he wanted to "star" at Wang Yang, so he had to hold his chin and listen to the two of them with a strong spirit, and Hathaway listened without speaking. But they're all used to it, and it's not the first time, those two people often talk at length about a certain topic, and this time it's about vegetarianism, but now it seems to be about nature?

"Hey, what are you talking about?" said Michael Pete with a bottle of mineral water. Joshua glanced at him and said listlessly, "On the Juno talk show, the topic of this episode seems to be 'should I eat a meat burger or a vegetarian burger', but like all the before, rotten." Wang Yang and Natalie both greeted him, and the two were about to introduce the topic they were talking about, but Michael Pitt preemptively said, "Oh, you go on." With that, he hurried away.

After a day of filming, the crew also returned to the hotel to rest.

Looking at the entertainment news on the computer screen, Wang Yang couldn't help but shake his head and scolded softly: "What the hell!" The current dog team is really getting more and more powerful, and he didn't even realize that he was photographed.

I saw that this news titled "Jan and Natalie walking the streets intimately" was accompanied by several positive photos of the two walking around the streets of the town, talking and laughing. But Wang Yang knows that not far from their left hand side is the entire crew, they just walked over together, not "dating and shopping" as reported at all, and the so-called "intimacy", he and Natalie are not enemies, they don't need to face each other coldly, and this is making a movie, the director and the actor must communicate, can it be said that he is the base by taking a few photos of him and Michael Pitt laughing and talking?

In particular, he and Natalie want to discuss the creation of Juno's lines, and to be funny and novel can become a trend, and Juno has a character trait that is sharp and sharp-tongued, and they have long said that they will allow each other to joke and squeeze without restrictions, so that more inspiration can come out. So they sometimes sarcastically talk to each other as if they were arguing, and at first Michael Pitt persuaded him to "fight".

Holding the mouse and clicking on it, he turned off this boring news, and Wang Yang continued to browse the current affairs of other film industries, ""Frozen Planet" failed at the box office and is about to be completely offline." This animated feature film, which Fox invested 75 million and took three years to produce, only received 22 million box office in one month after its release in North America, and there are only 283 theaters left at present, and Fox said it was "very disappointed".

Seeing this news, Wang Yang naturally remembered Blue Sky Studio and "Ice Age", the production of this cartoon is progressing well and is in line with expectations. It will definitely be released before the birth of his daughter. He suddenly missed Jessica so much that he smiled, took out his phone and pressed her number, he hadn't called her today. Fortunately, a few days later, the promotional event of "Youth Musical" came to Toronto, Canada.
