"Jan, is it possible that I won't participate in media interviews?"

The "Firefly" studio of the Flame Film Studio, the director's office, and several sets and wall panels are all plastered with various concept drawings, props, scene design drawings, etc., hearing Heath Ledger's words, Wang Yang, who was sitting behind the desk, was stunned and asked suspiciously: "Which one?" "Firefly" is about to start this afternoon, and then I will do some start-up interviews, this one?

Heath Ledger shrugged his shoulders with a smile, but he was very nervous, yes, yes! Wang Yang couldn't help laughing, curious and puzzled: "Why?" Heath Ledger clasped his hands together very unnaturally, and his two thumbs were mixed around, this topic was really a little embarrassing and naïve, he coughed, and his voice was very low: "Uh, cough...... I don't really like to do these things, I'm a person who doesn't like and don't know how to communicate with the media. So it's better to be, ahem, no. ”

"Hmm......" Wang Yang nodded silently, after getting along for a while, he found that Heath Ledger's personality is really a bit similar to Ennis Del-Mar, on the one hand, he is very depressed, he seems to be silent in the face of the crowd, and he can't say anything when he is nervous, but he is actually an enthusiastic person; on the other hand, he is eager to release himself and defeat the world, it is not difficult to understand why he can play the crazy clown to the fullest.

Do not participate in media interviews, including start-up, shooting, post-production main publicity, release, impact awards, DVD sales...... These links add up to one or two times, and Heath Ledger is needed for the promotion of "Firefly". Wang Yang leaned back in his chair, and suddenly spread his hands and smiled: "Hiss, why are you so nervous? Is the media a monster? You don't usually do this." Please, buddy!" he said earnestly, "We're friends, not just colleagues, unless you don't treat me as a friend." ”

"No, how could it be!" said Heath-Ledger quickly, he had always liked to make friends, but he was nervous and scared...... Who knows. Regardless of what Hiss thought, Wang Yang continued to say to himself: "In any case, I hope you don't think that I am a director and producer, so I isolate myself and don't like hot girls." Now I'm 24 years old, you're 24 years old, we're both young people, we can say anything, about this movie, about this movie, about not about this movie, I think we can be good friends. ”

Heath Ledger's smile was a little shy, a director of the same age, he really didn't have such a good friend, he nodded and responded: "I think so." ”

"Of course. Wang Yang smiled, this shy and crazy guy was really funny, he knew that it was like an exchange, if he wanted someone to say something sincere, he would give a name first, especially someone like Heath Ledger. Thinking about the past few years, Wang Yang exhaled and said to himself: "It's about to start, this is my ninth film to direct, I'll be honest with you, I really feel a lot of pressure, more pressure than before." But I can't let others know about these pressures, my wife, my family, my friends, the crew, the media...... Sometimes I just tell Danny that Danny is my Labrador and he can't snitch anyway. ”

"Huh. Looking at the slightly tired appearance of this great director, Heath Ledger understands very well, he understands the feeling of being overwhelmed by pressure, but he really wants to ask: "Why did you tell me?" Wang Yang shrugged his shoulders as if he heard it: "If I tell Jessica, she will definitely feel distressed and comfort me, and I will definitely be comforted." But I don't, I think a man should carry these, share 10% of the unpleasantness, contribute 100% of the pleasantness. ”

Heath Ledger nodded, "You're a good man. He couldn't help but wonder more about some of the questions he had begun to suspect recently, whether his previous life and the way he used to deal with feelings was wrong, how should he face Michelle Williams, a woman like no other...... "There are too many problems in this movie, and this is the first time I have faced it, and I don't want to mess it up." Wang Yang pursed his lips as he spoke, he didn't want to mess up but he wasn't afraid, he had the courage to meet these challenges! He added: "Don't look at me as if I can handle it easily, in fact, I also hate dealing with the media all day long, endless award ceremonies, endless interviews, endless paparazzi...... Damn! I wonder how I can quit them!"

Hearing him use this classic line from "Brokeback Mountain", Heath Ledger couldn't help but smile and exhale, the pressure accumulated over the months was relieved a lot, and he shook his head and said, "I want to know too." Wang Yang told the truth: "Unless you don't do this industry anymore and quit, you have to continue!" He spread his hands and said: "I hate dealing with the media, because many times, you want to call them 'sluts', you can only endure it and maintain your image." ”

"You know I'm Asian, and so many people are waiting to see some of my scandals, sex, alcohol, drugs, fights, or some movie that messes up, Firefly, so they can stomp me to death! Haha, it's not me, they should be staring at Charlie Sheen, Robert Downey Jr., those assholes that deserve to be fucked by a bear!"

Wang Yang scolded and slammed his fist on the table, and couldn't help but get a little excited, these are not lies, don't say anyone, some film critics who participated in the war of words in "The Devil Wears Prada" want him to finish; There are many people, gossip media hopes, eyeliners, and trying to find scandals about his private life, but he rarely even attends parties, which always disappoints them.

"Haha!" Wang Yang suddenly smiled again, looked at the silent Heath Ledger, and said, "I can't be too close to you, there are too many rumors about me being gay and bisexual! They insult sexual orientation, God testifies that I only like women, and now I only love one woman." ”

Listening to his intimate words of swaggering and scolding, Heath Ledger's heart was gradually touched that this great director really regarded him as a friend and a good friend. He said, "Uh...... I also hate those media, they don't spare every corner of your life, I wouldn't be in the United States if it wasn't for the film, I love Sydney, the wind is so refreshing...... I just can't get used to those newspapers, which are available to a lot of people, every time I interview...... Uh, like a lot of people are looking at you. Looking at Heath Ledger, uh, not Ennis, or the Blue Gloves......"

Speaking of these, Heath couldn't help but be more puzzled, he didn't know much about these Yankee games, but he knew that it was not easy for Wang Yang, who was Asian, to be popular in the United States now, except for the magic result is the public image, he asked: "Uh, you hate the media so much, why do you still get along so well with them?" And those award ceremonies...... You're just, amazing. ”

"I'm not totally hated by the media, they're an information bridge between filmmakers and fans, I just hate gossip media that spreads rumors. Wang Yang smiled and said that how he knew how to get along with the media was really uplifting, and he couldn't remember how many times he "uttered wild words", but the wild words were all realized; if he didn't realize them, he would have been finished. Thinking about it, he couldn't help but shake his head, Wang Yang smiled again: "I think there are still many people who really like Wang Yang and Heath Ledger, especially the people around us, it is also a lot of fun to let the people you care about and important cheer for you, and frustrate those who want you to make a fool of yourself." ”

Heath-Ledger was thoughtful, but still distressed: "But when it comes to those scenes...... I just didn't feel comfortable. Wang Yang raised his eyebrows helplessly, and his tone was calm: "Heath, you still have to accept some propaganda interviews, I won't arrange so many for you, but there are still them." Actually, Heath, I know you, it's very contradictory, you don't want to say hypocritical and polite things, you want to say 'slut', but you want to keep the image, everyone thinks 'Heath Ledger? he's okay', for fear that you'll say the wrong thing. ”

"ELL!" Wang Yang suddenly snapped his palms together and did not continue.

It's like a school Christmas ball, a well-dressed boy stands in a corner very stylishly, with his hands in his trouser pockets, seemingly casual, but he cares very much about the attention and eyes of the people around him, hoping that the hottest cheerleader in the school will hook up with him; He just wants to have a good chat and amuse with a hot girl in the world he can control, if there are many people, he is afraid and says bad things, which is actually because of lack of confidence, low self-esteem, and self-shame.

Low self-esteem and passivity are enough to ruin a lot, ruin a love, and ruin a person's life.

The reason why many actors embark on the road of acting is actually due to lack of self-confidence, they are dissatisfied with themselves, have an unhappy growth track, and want to become someone else...... Perhaps Heath Ledger, who experienced a separation of his parents at the age of 10 and divorced at the age of 11, is this.

"......" Heath Ledger didn't have all of them, but he had already understood Wang Yang's subtext, his face was uncontrollably embarrassed and red, and he heard Wang Yang laugh at himself: "Speaking of which, you may not know, at that time, in 1998, Zachary Levy and I were going to appear on the "Oprah Talk Show", oh my God! I don't want to say how excited and nervous I am, pretending to be calm and sweaty palms, but it's better than Zachary guy, haha!"

"It's April 2004, and it's been six years, six years since I walked out of USC. Wang Yang unscrewed the water bottle and drank slowly, everything was like yesterday, repairing the apartment, auditioning, filming...... THE CORNERS OF HIS MOUTH CURLED UP WITH A SMILE OF REMINISCENCE: ""GHOST SHADOW" WAS ALSO LAUNCHED AT ABOUT THIS TIME, 10,000 US DOLLARS, I DON'T DARE TO THINK TOO MUCH, IT'S JUST GOGOGO...... At that time, the team was very small, me, Zachary, Rachel, Jessica, and Joshua, maybe, he was also a set decorator, haha! Now, a team of hundreds of people, 200 million dollars, what is there to be afraid of?"

He got up from his chair and walked outside, patting Hiss on the shoulder as he walked by, "Dude, it's time to turn on!" ”

Heath Ledger felt pain in the shoulder, his eyes were fixed, from the stage of the small community theater to the current science fiction movie with a production cost of 200 million, he Heath Ledger has actually come to this point, isn't it amazing? He pushed the table with both hands, got up and walked: "What else is there to be afraid of?"

"This is the props department's office, and every part of the Serenity, including a small screw, is from their hands, bell, prop master!

Harry George, the big fat man, carries a video camera on his shoulder, and a sound engineer holding a microphone pole and others are also filming Wang Yang as he walks around to introduce the set of "Firefly", which will be included in the behind-the-scenes footage of future DVDs along with the opening ceremony in the afternoon. I saw Wang Yang walking towards the three-walled props office, where Drew Petrota and other prop team members were sitting at a round table, which was full of drawings and various molds, as well as a few prop pistols.

"Hey!" Hearing the director's shout, Drew Petrota looked towards the camera, and everyone next to him was also smiling happily, Wang Yang smiled: "Guys, I just thought, we need a time machine!" He faced the camera and said mysteriously: "What can't they create? He continued to walk along the road, and soon opened a door, and then came to the clothing room, and introduced with a smile: "There are a lot of clothes! ”

The long room was lined with hangers full of clothes on both sides, and Shanna Milkovic-Hayes, the costume designer who collaborated twice after "District 9", cut clothes on the table, and a few team members around to sort out the makeup clothes of the crew of the Serenity. Wang Yang walked to the table, greeted him and smiled: "Hey Shanna, how are my clothes? must be the most handsome!", and he explained to the camera: "Yes, I will be making a cameo role, which is a major turning point in my acting career." ”

"Jan, don't worry, whatever you wear is the most handsome. Shanna Milkovic Hayes shrugged her shoulders and said, and everyone immediately laughed, and Wang Yang was excited: "Wow! Shanna, you have such a taste! But that's my style." He smiled and continued to move forward in the room, introducing the rows of clothes to which character, and suddenly saw several women in front of him fiddling with a dress, he smiled: "My wife is over there, wearing Prada's little devil! ”

Jessica, who was talking to the makeup artist of the crew, naturally noticed him, and she beckoned with a charming smile: "Yang!" Wang Yang booed at the camera and walked to another channel: "Let them continue to match, I don't want to listen to the sky blue theory." Hey! Look who that's that! Alan—"

"Hello, Mr. Wang!" Ellen Pegg, dressed in blue suspender pants and a red T-shirt, was full of energy, as if he had walked out of the concept art of Kylie, simple and fresh with a stubbornness. "Haha!" Wang Yang felt funny when he saw this little bastard, and walked over and gave two thumbs up: "Many people say that they are geniuses, let me tell you the truth, this is a genius!" In comparison, Robert Downey Jr.'s acting skills are so pitiful. And she plays Kelly who is also a genius, self-taught spaceship repairman. ”

Alan Page had already been praised by Miraculous Young, and now she was not surprised, she accepted his compliment calmly, and she nodded, "Yes, I took her." ”

"She's cool, isn't she?" Wang Yang pointed to Alan Peggy's ponytailed head, and continued to walk accompanied by Harry George and others, and soon found Donnie in the captain's room set of the Tranquility, he walked with his hands open: "Hi, Robert Downey Jr., our Uncle Donnie, how are you?" Donnie, who was looking at the script, glanced at them and got up from the single bed: "HELLO, EVERYONE!"

Wang Yang and Donnie shook their fists and touched their shoulders, then smiled at the camera: "The character I play is Captain Marr's old subordinate, who participated in the Battle of Tranquility Valley together, and respects this guy very, very much! But in reality, Uncle Downey wants to wrestle with me all day long, and he once failed to me miserably." Hey dude, do you dare to be in front of this camera, let's have a show!" Robert Downey's eyes lit up, and he finally had a chance to take revenge! He hurriedly rolled up his sleeves: "Come on, come on!"

"Haha, I'm just kidding. Wang Yang smiled and pushed him hard, and while Donnie was staggering, he continued to walk to the next set, smiling at the camera and saying, "I still win, why take the risk? Bye, Uncle Donnie." ”

"Michael Pitt!Heath Ledger!" came to the huge cargo set at the tail of the ship, where the stairs and second-floor passages had been erected compared to a month ago, and the "Serenity/Serenity" logo was printed on the wall of a moving set, and Wang Yang walked towards the two people who were talking. Seeing the camera team recording the footage, Heath Ledger, who forgot about himself after the director shouted "Action!", was a little uncomfortable and subconsciously stroked his hair;

Wang Yang stretched out his fist and touched the two of them, turned to face the camera, and said with a smile: "They are all handsome guys selling point of "Firefly", you can't count on Robert Downey Jr., OK, let him go! Listen to what the two handsome guys have to say?" Heath Ledger scratched his cheek and said, "Well, yes, the set here is very well done, and it will be turned on immediately, which is good." Michael Pitt sighed and smiled, "I've been looking forward to it since I got Young's audition call and can't wait to turn it on." ”…… Although Wang Yang is of Chinese descent, as always, the opening ceremony of the ninth film directed by Hong Kong and Chinese mainland did not have the same set as worshipping gods, slaughtering roast pigs, unveiling red cloth, and leaders attending; but everyone prayed for a smooth filming and blessing session, and different religious beliefs silently made different prayers. Jessica's lips twitched, and she closed her eyes and said silently: "Lord, please make the filming of "Firefly" go well! Everyone can do their best, perform the best, create miracles at the box office, and Young will win the Oscar for Best Director again!"

The external ceremonies include press conferences, catwalk photo shoots, and internal ceremonies, including blessings, are simple, with the crew getting together and the creators taking turns speaking and encouraging the filming.

"In the next four, five, or even six or seven months...... "In the vast green screen studio, all the crew of the "Firefly" studio gathered here, Robert Downey Jr., Heath Ledger, Michael Pitt, Wu Yanzu, Alan Page, Jessica and other leading actors, Joss Whedon, Varyt Pfister, Drew Petrota, Sean Walsh, Donnie Yen, Shanna Milkovic Hayes and other creators sat on a row of benches in front of them, and the team members in the back also looked at Wang Yang on the small stage in front of them.

And Harry George, Joshua and other "continuing staff" are responsible for the filming and filming of the collection of on-set footage.

"For a long time, we will all do our best for Firefly. Looking at everyone's familiar faces, Wang Yang can call out the name of any of them, the production team, the director team, the photography team, the props group, the set group, and the special effects team...... He continued: "There are a lot of people here who have been working with me for a long time, starting with 'Youth Musical' at the end of 1998, and over the years, you've watched me go from 18 to 24 and get married. THANK YOU FIRST, YOU DIDN'T FEEL 'YOU-NO-GOOD' JUST BECAUSE I WAS YOUNG, AND OF COURSE, THOSE WHO THOUGHT YOU WERE YOU-NO-GOOD HAD ALREADY BEEN KICKED OUT BY ME. ”

"Hahaha!" everyone burst into laughter, and Vare-Pfister couldn't help but clap his hands when he recalled the past when Young came to the studio to invite him to take charge of the camera, and immediately everyone burst into thunderous applause. Looking at Jessica's smile, Wang Yang smiled again: "Thank you for your 'YOU-NECESSITY-GOOD', we have gone through many years, by the way, I am not so dictatorial, you know." ”

Listening to the chuckles around him, Heath Ledger really sighed to himself, it's not a question of self-confidence or not, he really doesn't have such eloquence and speech ability, but he knows that he is not afraid of anyone when it comes to acting, if the Oscar is what the standard is, then the blue glove will definitely be nominated.

"There are also many people who are working with me for the first time, and soon you will know that Wang Yang is a trustworthy director, and I will solve all conflicts and be more effective than the police. Wang Yang paused, glanced at the smiling crowd, and finally said: "This story, this movie, it will carry my and your ideas, enthusiasm, and hard work...... Many people are not optimistic, and I have burdened you. In the midst of everyone's laughter, he kept laughing: "But I believe in it, it has an incomparable charm! So, let's take off and fly to the end of the universe on the Tranquility!

Thunderous applause resounded in the green screen studio again, everyone laughed and applauded vigorously, Jessica said in her heart: "Young, I'll try to play well!" Alan Page flashed a thought: "Let Wonder Young see, I'm really a genius!" Donnie laughed and made up his mind again: "Heartthrob Captain Marr is here!" Michael Pitt clapped: "Jami will know, Jan asked me to act, I promised, how right it is." "......" Also, blue gloves, you go out. …… Let's come in, it's too cold in space. ”
