On the second day after attending the Golden Globe Awards Ceremony, Wang Yang and Jessica, who had completed the filming of High School Musical 3, returned to San Francisco to prepare for the Lunar New Year with their families in the lively Chinatown.
This was his first time with Jessica for the Spring Festival. Although Jessica had read many books about Chinese culture since she fell in love with her, she was still full of curiosity and asked various questions. Wang Yang Of course, know everything.
Both people understand that if they want to fall in love happily and form a family and have children in the future, they must understand and respect each other's cultural customs. This mixed-race Jessica knew much better than Wang Yang. Her maternal grandparents were a combination of Denmark and France. Her mother married a Mexican-American dad. At the maternal grandmother and mother, she knew the importance of cultural integration.
But the elders are doing very well. There are already three countries, and Jessica and Wang Yang feel that it is not a problem to have one more China coming in.
This sweet and happy holiday in San Francisco also proves this. The two visited the flower market, watched the dragon and lion dance ... Jessica also learned some Chinese food skills in Wang's restaurant.

On the overseas official website message board of Flame Movies, fans in Australia, Britain, Germany ... and other places all said crazyly: ”Love Juno ””
As soon as the original CD of Juno was released in North America, it was sold out by fans. According to the owner of the record store, since Juno was released, similar harmonica-style country records have sold more than the same period in the past. want more. At a Yahoo youth jury selection award, Juno was undoubtedly voted as the ”best screen female character”, and ”Juno” also swept the ”best movie, best director, best actress” , Best Music, etc. Almost all the awards that participated in the nomination, even the popularity of the ”High School Musical” series can not match it.
Juno, a teenage pregnant woman with a sharp tooth, has set off a unique trend across the United States and even the world. As the ”New York Times” said, this also allows the market to see the demand and potential of the theme ”girl pregnancy”, and once it is revealed, the market will not be indifferent, and the TV station wants to buy the adaptation of ”Juneau” Rights to produce a TV series.
”How are you going to adapt?” Wang Yang, holding a telephone microphone, leaned against the cabinet in the open kitchen, watching Jessica in the apron opposite work busy, and asked the producer on the other side of the phone, David Vince . This is a phone conversation with an initial intention, but he is not nervous or caring, he does not lack the money to sell the adaptation rights; ”Junuo” does not need this propaganda, and when the TV series comes out, it has been painted all over the line .
David Vince over there smiled happily, and said sincerely: ”In fact, we hope to invite you to participate in the work of the screenwriter; of course, we hope and welcome you to be the director of the series.” That being said, he didn't have any hope in his heart. It was the hot and magical Yang, the youngest billionaire, genius director, the youngest nomination for the Golden Globe Award ...
A member of the screenwriter team? Or the director? He was just trying his luck. Thinking of this, David Vince added again: ”Jian, only the first episode will do.”
”Well, I ...” Wang Yang smiled suddenly. His professional degree in South Carolina is film and TV production, and the TV part is also the main course. What he learned during his short college career and self-study are telling him that there are many differences between film and TV drama. , Including the difference in the look of the big screen and the small screen, which leads to the difference in the design of the sub-lens screens; the rhythm of storytelling, etc. The two are like a pair of brothers. Although they have the same blood, they look different.
He naturally prefers movies, but he is not completely uninterested in TV series. If you want to tell a long story in detail, then TV series is a better choice than movies. But he doesn't have the impulse to tell stories now, especially about teenage pregnancy and ”Junuo”. All the ideas have been filmed in the movie, so there is nothing better to make a TV series.
