"The movie dream of a genius boy"

Early in the morning of March 5, the Los Angeles Times, which emitted the fragrance of ink, was delivered from various channels to newspaper readers, either eating breakfast at home while watching, on the bus or subway, on the school bus, in the office, or on the street...

People in various cities in the west read the latest Los Angeles Times and saw this exclusive interview in the movie version.

"Ye Wei?"

"A genius boy? What did he do...'The short film "Angel Dance" was broadcast on Nickelodeon, attracting an average of 1.15 million viewers'... It seems like some skills."

"What a strange thing!"

People are curious and people are puzzled. This is so novel. An Asian boy who just turned 16 years old, his charity short film was on TV. It has good ratings and good responses. All the 500,000 US dollars of income created is donated to charity institutions, not music, but movie short films!

Today is not April Fool's Day, and the Los Angeles Times is not an irresponsible tabloid, so this is authoritative and real news. There is such an amazing boy!

Some people understand, and some people don’t know how powerful this is, but the introduction paragraph in the newspaper gives a definition. Many great directors have been filming short films when they were young, and some are younger than Ye Wei, but none of them can do this!

What happened now is unprecedented, unbelievable, amazing, and amazing, and movie genius!

Reporter Rolls asked: "Steven Spielberg made a super eight-feature film when he was 16 years old. Who do you think you are more genius than him at that time?"

Ye Wei: "Spielberg is one of the filmmakers I respect most. His youth was not as good as the technology. Every time he shot, he had to print film to see the effect. But I could see it on the spot when I was shooting, so we were actually doing many different things. He had his era problems, and I also had mine, which could not be compared. The same thing is that we were all poisoned. Only by making movies can we breathe, and if we didn't shoot, we would die."

"Hahaha, VIY is on the newspaper!"

On the Harvard-West Lake school buses, cheering and cheering. Lev, Bud and others excitedly lit up the newspapers in their hands. Ye Wei's handsome photos were very conspicuous, and everyone in all grades had a bright look. It was not the "Spectrum" of junior high school, but the "Los Angeles Times"!

"Show me, oh my... VIY is so cool!"

"What did the boss say?"

"Don't fight, don't fight, ahem, please 'The Sphinx' Lev Pobil, it's me, to read it to you!"

...

As early as March 3, accompanied by Leslie Dart, Ye Wei went to the interview room of the Los Angeles Times headquarters building for an exclusive interview.

The reporter Rolls Manao who interviewed him is not a big name, but ordinary journalists are better than ordinary journalists, so Ye Wei is easier to deal with and control. Over the past few days, Leslie has taught him a lot about how to deal with the media.

There is no need to lie or exaggerate the facts. You just need to speak with skills, such as the skills of making movies and telling stories, which should be said, which should not be said, where should be emphasized, and where will be gently brought over to make your story more beautiful and your emotions more touching. This is a big question.

Originally, Leslie was worried that Ye Wei would be difficult to teach, after all, she was only 16 years old, and I heard that Lowett, Ibuprofen and others said that he was a rotten wood in public relations.

But she was surprised to find that no matter whether Ye Wei was a movie genius or not, he was definitely a conversation genius!

His eloquence is something that no one can teach. The confidence, humor, infectiousness and charm are destined to become a successful speaker, host, or public relations even if he doesn't make a movie. In the end, Leslie only taught some talk taboos, avoiding talking about religion, politics, and race, and how to deal with it if it is discussed.

This interview will not involve "The Little Sunshine Beauty" and will not rise to the height of the American Dream. It is to introduce him and "The Dance of Angels".

Leslie had a request, "But be yourself and bring people the positive idol power that is as bright as sunshine!"

"You are too young." In the elegant interview room, Rous Manao and Ye Wei shook hands to meet each other. The reporter in his early thirties repeatedly sighed, "I saw your short video and I almost cried. Finally, I saw that Ye Wei was actually a teenager, which was incredible."

"Is the interview started now?" Ye Wei asked while sitting down on the guest sofa. Hearing that it had not started yet, he smiled and said, "Lousse, I have to say, I like your surprise. This is exactly what I want to react to the whole world! I want to tell this world that we should never underestimate young people, especially the movie boy named Ye Wei."

Rolls nodded convincingly, and Leslie next to him suddenly said, "Rouss, this is also considered an exclusive interview, right?" There is really no way, his words are great!

Full of confidence, but not arrogant and stupid, this way, leads young people to speak to the world, and peers will like it, and older people will appreciate it.

"Yes, yes." Rous responded and entered the laptop.

...

Reporter Rolls: "At the age of 16, how did you create it?"

Ye Wei: "My father is a movie lover. Under his influence, I started to get involved in film production at a very young age. At the age of 10, I started shooting some family videos with Super 8 and DV, and at the age of 13, I started shooting short films with storylines. "Angel Dance" is my first time challenging a professional-level short film, and it did a pretty good job."

In the Coppola family manor, there were many members sitting lively by the breakfast table in the dining room. The owner's big Coppola frowned when she saw her granddaughter looking at the newspaper and not eating. "Gia?"

"It's done well", is Asian modesty... so arrogant! Jiya picked up the croissant and took a bite, staring at the newspaper, she also studied movies since she was a child, she grew up on the set, and she made guest appearances in "New York Story" at the age of 1 and "Godfather 3" at the age of 3.

First, it was grandfather's set, but in recent years it was aunt's set... Her short film level is so big.

"Dad never talks about business when eating." Sofia Coppola over there joked, "Gia, stop watching first, and watch after breakfast."

"Grandpa, are we actually a mafia family?" Jiya suddenly asked.

Coppola was stunned, "What?"

"Tie this kid and bring it to me!"

...

Reporter Rolls: "Does there be financial problems in the short film? How did you solve it?"

Ye Wei: "I do what I can do by myself. I am the director myself because I don't have money. I also have received free help from many people, including the use of photography equipment! I was even more fortunate to contact Mr. Phil Collins and obtained his free authorization from You'll-Be-In-My-Heart, so the cost of "Dance of Angels" is almost zero, thanks to them."

Reporter Rolls: "The script is also free, right? Is there any reason to create this script?"

Ye Wei: "The story is inspired by my three-year-old sister Dorothy and my puppy Toto. That day I saw Dorothy running and accidentally fell down. Toto went up to comfort her, and she stood up and ran. But I was very moved by normal moments, so this story came up. They are my muse."

Brentwood, Ye Family Dining Room, Ye Haogen, Gu Qiao looked at the newspaper with a happy smile on his face.

"Duoduo, your brother said you are the muse."

"Where?" Duoduo happily took the newspaper, looked like a decent look, and suddenly said in surprise: "Mouse? Brother, I am not a mouse, it was Toto who ate your candy!"

Both of them were amused by their daughter's cuteness and laughed. Gu Qiao explained and said, "Mouse also has a letter O, which is Muse, a goddess."

"Where are the rats? Who did I hear say that they were rats?"

At the door of the backyard, Ye Wei, wearing a jersey, rushed in with a smile. Toto followed him, as if facing a great enemy! A mouse!

...

Reporter Rolls: "You must be the youngest on the set. Are you under pressure to lead so many crew members older than you? Are you having any problems?"

Ye Wei: "I think they are more stressful, and I will remind them of their bad prom (laughs). So I have two principles to form a team: one is to try not to look for old stubbornness as much as possible, and the other is to find children younger than me as much as possible. Like Anna Sophia Rob, all she can do is look up to me, otherwise she will not see that I am actually distracted."

"Hahaha!" Louisiana, on the set of "It's all Daisy's trouble", Anna reads the newspaper she finally bought, and she misses that devil!

Looking at his handsome photo in the newspaper, she smiled and sent him a text message on her phone: "I'm looking at you! Looking down!"

...

Reporter Rolls: "You can do things that ordinary teenagers do, right? Play, fall in love? Are you in love?"

In the spacious dining room of the room, when Lily saw this problem, she suddenly felt nervous, and held the newspaper's hands and tried harder, not understanding what she was expecting...

Ye Wei: "I am not a camera, of course I am also a teenager. I often do stupid things with my friends, which will always make us gain a lot in happiness. I am still single for the time being, and my friends call me the 'Asian version of George Clooney', but in fact I hate George Clooney because I am the son of a dentist."

Lily smiled and glanced at him for a few more times. Her heartbeats quickly. She took a breath and continued to watch.

Reporter Rolls: "Tell me about the Snow White in your mind?"

Ye Wei: "I love to laugh, be kind, and confident. I will do a lot of crazy things with me and can endure some of my shortcomings. I will write Snow-White in a love letter like Show-White."

"Hahaha!" Lily couldn't help laughing. Is this bastard really okay if he dares to joke like this in the interview?

Reporter Rolls: "I am very interested in your genius and stupid things. Can you tell me?"

Ye Wei (laugh): "Well, a few days ago, we shouted to a squirrel in the tree, 'Do you want nuts?', and it rushed down and wanted to carry us back (nerd Nut)."

"Haha, it looks real, that idiot can definitely do it, haha!"

...

Many people were amused by Ye Wei's humor. The more people laughed, the more interested they became in him, especially those of young people of all sizes.

"Princess Lubai, this guy is so interesting!"

"He is not an Asian boy, right? Why don't I know such Asian boys!"

"He is an Asian boy!! I have been on his personal website for a long time, and there are some articles on it, which are more interesting than this interview."

He is also a movie genius, young, humorous, good academic, handsome! He can also...sports!

Reporter Rolls: "Are you still an athlete?" Note: Ye Wei is the captain of the second football team of Harvard West Lake School. He just led the team to win the league championship this school year, scoring 27 goals and assisting 15 times in the season.

Ye Wei: "After the Super Bowl incident, I had this opportunity. Many friends told me, 'I dare not watch football anymore, it's better to play football'. Yes, let's watch the football game and ensure that no star will come to perform during the intermission."

Reporter Rolls: "You still know Chinese Kung Fu?"

Ye Wei: "Some, my grandfather is a Chinese Allied soldier in World War II. He taught me when he was alive. Understanding kung fu made me more confident. After all, if you look at other people, you will feel that they are much weaker."

Reporter Rolls: "What does an Asian identity mean to you?"

Ye Wei: "It means who I am? I am proud that I am an Asian American. I have both the flesh and blood of Eastern culture and the blood of American culture. This multifaceted nature did not confuse me, but instead allowed me to better understand this human world.

But as I grew up, I also encountered racial discrimination and sometimes it was difficult. In any case, we just couldn’t be defeated by ugliness, don’t give in to those people, continue to do the right thing, be yourself, a unique existence in the world.”

The Asian teenagers who read this passage were immediately inspired and excited.

Are Asian youth idols finally appearing?

...

Reporter Rolls: "You have a great start on the road to making movies. Do you have any creative plans next?"

Ye Wei: "Making movies is my dream, my lifelong love, so it will definitely continue. I am already preparing two new projects, one is a new movie produced and directed by me; the other is a remake of a comedy film, written, produced, filmed and performed by me. The latter will meet you faster and it is expected to be completed this summer."

Reporter Rolls: "Two projects? Feature films!? This is amazing."

Ye Wei: "Spielberg can do it in his youth when he was poor in technology. I can't find a reason to say no. I believe there will be many new challenges, but I'm ready."
