Brilliant Life in the Entertainment Circle

"Inception" adhering to Christopher Nolan's consistent style, the film contains suspense, action, science fiction and thriller.Although only three-fifths of the script has been written so far, the characters have basically been finalized. The actor, Dom Cobb, is an old liar who specializes in stealing other people's dreams.The male number two is his assistant, Arthur.This character has also been cast as an actor, and it is American Joseph Gordon.

Hollywood movies cannot be without women and love.Otherwise, the audience is more willing to pay to see a boxing match.This movie is no exception. Nolan designed two female characters, one of whom is the actor Dom's wife "Mel". suicide.

In other words, Mel is a fictional character who only appears in Dom's dreams in a ghostly form.Nolan has already found an actor for this role, Oscar best actress, French actor Marion Cotillard.

Everything went well, except that the selection of another heroine, the dream builder "Adrian", made Nolan face a difficult situation.What kind of girl are you looking for?First of all, in the movie, she has no love relationship with "Dom" played by Leonardo, they are just collaborators, and even Dom is a bit like Adrian's teacher.Leading her through various dangers, the two helped each other.At the beginning of designing this character, director Nolan had already planned to find an actress with a handsome face and a little student spirit in her temperament for this role.

Before Song Ya, he had considered many people - Rachel Wood, Emily Blunt, Keira Knightley, Emma Roberts... However, after several rounds of interviews, Nuo Lan felt that they were not good candidates.Emily is too sexy, Keira looks a little old, Emma is too familiar to the audience, Rachel is good, but she rejected Nolan.No way, Nolan and another producer, Emma Thomas, started recasting.

Song Ya was recommended to Nolan by the casting director John, and the intercepted video material happened to be from "Decisive Blackjack".

Nolan had seen this movie before, but he was embarrassed and fell asleep in front of the computer.This is an unappealing film unless you're into gambling and damn math.Of course he is not in the mood to watch it a second time. He is a great director. Apart from writing scripts and choosing actors, he is so busy every day that he has no time to watch other people's movies.However, it is very miraculous that since he still remembers Song Ya.

"She's half-breed, from Korea, and she was in the movie where Barrymore was the producer, and I think she's pretty good, Nolan, you know if you're looking for a girl with a student air and acting experience in Hollywood. How difficult." John pointed to Song Ya who was flirting with Jim on the computer screen. "Her blonde hair is dyed, it's brown. So are the eyes, and in this movie she wears contact lenses."

"I think she's a bit too pretty!" Nolan took a sip of whiskey and shook his head. "Is there an actress who is a little earthy? It is the kind that makes you not like her at all."

Go to Indiana if you want a dick!John couldn't help but slander.Although the conversation broke up a little unhappy, Nolan's impression of Song Ya was even more profound. One day, he found the CD of "Decisive Blackjack" from the storage room, and endured heavy sleepiness and anxiety. Kevin, that old guy's half-smile face, watched the whole movie.Then he thought, maybe John is right, this Asian actress can play the role of "Adrian" in a messy outfit.

At the subsequent Saturn Awards Ceremony, Nolan happened to sit in front of Song Ya. At that time, Song Ya had already dyed her hair back to honey brown.Compared with the arrogant and sexy blonde, the brown hair makes her look more quiet and beautiful. She speaks very politely and always has a smile on her face. The key is that she can speak English very well. Later, Nolan I learned that Song Ya joined the movie "Don't Let Me Go".He has been paying attention to her. After the stills of "Never Let Me Go" were released, Nolan sat in the office and discussed with other producers for a day, and finally decided to invite the actress from South Korea to audition for "Adrian".

Auditions start here.

Nolan said very apologetically: "Sorry, yaa, time is tight, mainly because Leon's schedule is very full, he doesn't have that much time to run around just to audition with other actors, hope you can understand auditioning in a restaurant embarrassing."

"It's the same everywhere, I don't mind." Song Ya said with a smile.

After briefly reading the lines and the plot, the two began to perform. Leon entered the play very quickly. It took only a second to change from a diner with blurred eyes and a little lazy to a worried eater. , a middle-aged man who always frowns.Driven by him, Song Ya also quickly entered the role scene.She drew a maze on paper.Then hand it to Leon.

This maze is quite difficult, she thought to herself, her face was very calm, without any nervous emotion, she knew that this kind of exam never posed a threat to her.However, unexpectedly, Leon knew the exit of the maze in less than ten seconds. "Draw another one." He raised his eyebrows with disdain on his face.

Song Ya was stunned for a second, then took the drawing paper and drew a new maze.

Then, to her surprise, she drew one and Leon denied one.Slowly, nervousness appeared on Song Ya's face, he was smarter than me, it was obvious, but the long-standing conceit made it difficult for Song Ya to accept the reality, she drew another maze, and licked the slightly dry After the lips, handed it to Leon.

She thought, this time it should be fine, Leon will definitely not be able to get out within 1 minute.However, only ten seconds later, Leon's paintbrush drew a clear blue line from the entrance to the exit.

"I'm sorry, I think you may not be suitable!" He took a contemptuous tone, looking at her like a poor iq.Song Ya was enraged, and grabbed the white paper in his hand and drew a new maze.This was a last-ditch gamble on dignity, but she won, and Leon couldn't find the exit of the maze even after 2 minutes. "Good performance." There was a complimenting smile on his face.

"Perfect! Perfect! Perfect!" Nolan excitedly patted the table three times. This was the feeling he wanted. Dom and Adrian had the same IQ. Dom was slick and scheming, while Adrian was pure and stubborn.After the "maze" stop, they have formed an alliance in their hearts, but it is only an alliance. There is no love between them, and the relationship is single and pure.

"You must come, yaa, this role is yours." At the moment of parting, Nolan was very excited, it was too difficult, the staff was finally assembled, but he also knew that Song Ya is very popular in Hollywood now, and the movie invitation Not a lot, "Wait for me for a week, and I will personally come to your door to find you to sign the contract."

"Okay." Song Ya agreed, not sure if Nolan was telling the truth.

"Yaa, I hope to cooperate with you." Leon answered from the side.Xia Feng blew his blond hair, revealing his wrinkled forehead.

Song Ya looked up into his blue eyes: "I also hope to cooperate with you."

After she left, Leon and Nolan got into the car and prepared to go back to the hotel. After the car started, Leon turned his head to look in the direction Song Ya left, as if she hadn't left and was still standing there.

"What are you looking for?" Nolan asked curiously, following Leon's gaze, there was nothing behind the car, it was an empty street.

"Nothing." Leon smiled, then closed his eyes.It was strange, he always felt that he had seen Song Ya somewhere.Doesn't seem like the real world...

*******

Nolan kept his promise, and a week later, he brought the two heads of the investor Legendary Films and the distribution company Warner Bros. to Seoul to sign a contract with Song Ya.

Currently, the investment budget of "Inception" has reached 1.6 million US dollars, of which 1500 million is paid to Leonardo's film remuneration. This is open and there is no need to hide it.The salary of other actors is between 200 million and 500 million, among which Joseph is the highest, and Japanese actor Ken Watanabe is the lowest.Nolan treated Song Ya well, and directly offered a salary of 400 million yuan.Li Xinyan has inquired (of course it took a lot of trouble to inquire) that the salary of the supporting actor Joseph Gordon is 500 million.Looking at it this way, as an Asian, especially a newcomer who has just entered Hollywood for two years, the salary of 400 million yuan is completely acceptable.

Moreover, after the contract was written, Song Ya still had a share of the box office.

As the saying goes, blessings are unparalleled.However, on the second day after signing the contract with Nolan, the crew of "Extras" who had been silent before sent an email to Song Ya, hoping that she could go to the United States to participate in the second round of auditions.Why!This is really a trouble of happiness. Originally, Song Ya really had a soft spot for the crew of "Extras". Although she didn't know the plot very well, the quiet ballet room strongly attracted her.

This is a literary film, and the investor is [-]th Century Fox. With experience, Song Ya is [-]% sure that this is a good movie for the Oscars.

Unfortunately, the time is wrong.Song Ya finally decided to give up returning to the United States to participate in this audition. There is still half of 2009 left. Apart from devoting herself to filming "Twilight 2" and "Inception", the rest of the time, Song Ya has to plan to open her own studio.At present, everything is progressing smoothly, the address has been selected, and the funds are sufficient, but Song Ya is still hesitating whether to use her shares in S/M or not.Regarding Ji Fan's future, she has already planned, but she just didn't think about how to talk to Li Xiuman. She needs an opportunity to make Li Xiuman have to agree and there is no way out. However, this is too difficult. S/M's current situation The development is invincible. Such a move by Seoljang Kibum has not caused an uproar in Korea. How can such a company have any loopholes for Song Ya to take advantage of?

Why!Headache!

After resting in South Korea for more than a month, at the end of June in a blink of an eye, director Nolan sent an email to inform Song Ya that "Inception" will officially start filming on July 7, US time.I hope that Song Ya can return to Los Angeles on July 13th to reunite with the whole crew.Because there are action scenes and skiing scenes, Song Ya must enter the group to receive professional training in advance.

"It's time to start fighting again!" Song Ya wailed and began to pack her suitcase. At this moment, Li Xinyan suddenly pushed the door and walked in, and said anxiously: "Some bad news." After finishing speaking, she turned around and closed the door , as if someone was eavesdropping outside, "TVXQ, TVXQ, maybe, maybe..."

Song Ya sat on the ground, looked up at the incoherent Li Xinyan blankly, suddenly, her heart skipped a beat, her voice changed: "The plane crashed, right? They all fell into the sea, right?!"

"Oh, no!" Li Xinyan stomped her feet angrily, annoyed where her eloquent teeth had gone on weekdays, calmed down a little, and then said to the wide-eyed Song Ya: "The company's internal news, just now, Yu Tian , Zhong and Junxiu did not appear in the shooting location of the album cover of "2009 SUMMERSMTOWN". After Yunhao and Changmin came again, they expressed unclear why the other three did not come. Yes, he never saw Yutian and the others again."

"What about the managers, don't they know?" It stands to reason that Shenqi's managers are the most dedicated. When they first debuted, they guarded them 24 hours a day. Later, when they grew up, they each had separate residences. The last five children are very honest, so the manager's management of them is getting looser and looser. However, it is an unshakable rule to make a phone call every night to confirm the location.

There was no news for five days, if even Yun Hao didn't know, then the manager must have no idea where Yu Tian and the others were.

disappeared?

Or, be kidnapped! !

Li Xinyan looked at Song Ya dejectedly, her eyes full of sympathy. "Yami, I thought going to Hollywood would make you smarter, but I didn't expect that your mind is still so simple, as if you have been in kindergarten and have not graduated. Don't you understand? They canceled the plan to shoot the new album cover, and they I didn’t show up for five days because they want to terminate the contract!! Just like the myth back then, Yuchun, Junsu, and Jaejong are leaving S/M!”

Song Ya's cell phone was about to explode, and all the reporters were asking: "Is TVXQ going to disband? Where are Yuchun, Junsu, Jaejong and the others?! Did you know about this beforehand? Alive? Your contract is also up this year, so, renew or leave?"

Li Xiuman has no time to care about whether Song Ya will renew her contract or not.He is going crazy!There are more than a dozen meetings every day to discuss how to reconcile with Yutian and the others.right!reconciliation!Although Li Xiu was full of anger and wanted to tear the three of them apart, now is not the time to settle accounts. TVXQ's world tour is not over yet, and next year and the year after, they have already signed performance contracts with many companies from Japan and China. Almost all year round.

Yes, all year round, the contract was signed, but those three bastards actually ran away!Leave a mess and high liquidated damages for the company to solve.

Well done!What a job!

At the end of June, the parents of the five members of Shenqi had a meeting with the company's senior management on behalf of their children. The content of the discussion was kept confidential, but the media speculated that it should be related to the sharing of remuneration.After the meeting, some media immediately exposed the news that TVXQ would be disbanded, but S/M immediately denied it on the morning of the 6th.

In early July, S/M stocks continued to fall.

Every day, a large number of reporters wait in front of the S/M building to wait for Li Xiuman.

Every day, the fairy queens who come from all over the country and even the world sit quietly in front of S/M to support their idols.They don't believe that TVXQ will disband.

Song Ya's cell phone kept ringing all day long.Fortunately, she is about to leave for the United States.Because of Shenqi's incident, her ticket was also changed, in order to avoid the media.She had nothing to say or ask about the matter.They have grown up and have been in the entertainment industry for six years. They know what they are doing better than anyone else!Of course the consequences are clear.So there is no need for Song Ya to ask.

If Shenqi disbands, it will certainly be the most unfair to Cassiopeia.But the company made the biggest mistake, thinking that the five of them are not gods, sick or injured, they should go to the hospital for good treatment instead of continuing to sing on stage.

My heart is cold, but it is not easy to warm up!

Song Ya didn't expect that Kim Jae Jong would call her.

"Sister is so heartless, she didn't even come to see me." On the phone, he acted coquettishly as before, "I went to the United States in July, so I guess it will be next year when we meet again?"

"Why, from the tone of your voice, you are in a good mood?" Song Ya was confused.She couldn't believe it hadn't affected him at all.She also didn't believe that he would really leave TVXQ.Maybe it's just a fit of temper, this is the same idea of ​​Song Ya and many media.After all, the company treats them too harshly, without the warmth of home.

"Yes, I'm in a good mood!" He emphasized, "Why, do you think I'm going to cry? No, sister, I'm happy now. Since my debut, I've been living like a day every year, busy and flying every day. In several cities, I have no time to sleep, and I have to go to rehearsals when I am injured, but it is different now, sister, I am very free every day. A few days ago, Yutian and I went fishing. For the first time in so many years, I I think life is a very interesting thing.”

"As long as you are happy." After a long silence, Song Ya said softly.

Jae-chung was also silent, and the laughter stopped abruptly, which sounded more uncomfortable than crying. "Sister, come and see me, I miss you." After a while, he murmured.

**************

Jae-chung is currently renting a small villa in Jiangnan District.

It was Yu Tian who opened the door for Song Ya. "Good afternoon, sister!" He smiled and narrowed his eyes.

"You're in a good mood." Song Ya patted his head and walked in.In the living room, Zai Zhong and Junxiu had already stood up, they were sitting on the carpet playing chess before.

It was too leisurely.

"Sister, you chatted with Zaizhong, Junxiu and I went upstairs." Youtian blinked and flirted with Junxiu, and the two walked upstairs.

The room is a bit messy, and there are various packing boxes piled up in the corner of the living room.

"We just moved here the day before yesterday, and we haven't had time to tidy things up yet, so it's a bit messy, I hope my sister doesn't mind." Seeing Song Ya looking at the villa all the time, Zai Zhong scratched his head shyly. "Sit here. The sofa arrived yesterday and it's very clean."

"The carpet is new too?" The carpet is a beautiful yellow-brown color, Song Ya is afraid of getting dirty, "Do you have any extra slippers?"

"Yes!" Zaizhong threw his slippers to her, and said with a playful smile, "Put them on, I promise you won't have athlete's foot." After speaking, he held up two feet to show Song Ya, "I just washed them half an hour ago. The shower is very clean!"

Song Ya unceremoniously picked up the slippers, and unceremoniously threw them towards Jin Zaizhong's head.

"Sister! I was wrong!" Zai Zhong apologized repeatedly, hugging his head.Song Ya glared at him, then took off her high-heeled sandals, walked onto the carpet barefoot, and sat beside Zhong.

"So, you are living with Yutian and Junxiu now." She asked.

"Otherwise?" Jaejong smiled self-deprecatingly, "Perhaps you won't believe it. According to the contract, we sell 50 albums and each of us can get 1 million won. Sister, what can 1 million won buy?" Ah! I can't even afford a shoe for your feet."

"Also—" he changed his posture, nestled himself into the sofa, hugged his knees with his hands, and said with a cold smile, "I always thought that with the continuous expansion of TVXQ's influence, the company could change the terms of the contract. Change, we don’t ask for a [-]-[-] share, but a [-]-[-] share is always okay! As a result, we raised it with the high-level many times, but no one responded to us at all. In addition to the unreasonable record share, the advertisement share and film and television drama share are very unreasonable. I went to Japan to shoot "The Postman of Paradise", do you know how much the company got out of it?"

"Take away 8?"

"8?" Jae Chung sneered, "It's 9! Sister, it's unheard of! I worked so hard to memorize Japanese words day and night, and stayed up almost all night for the next day's shooting to go smoothly. Memorize the lines, you can ask Ueno Juli, I often have nosebleeds when filming, and stomach cramps after eating. As a result, as soon as I arrived at the hospital, the senior management of the company sent someone to tell the doctor that I could not be hospitalized because To work!"

It is no secret that S/M is "ruthless".But if you are not the person involved, you will never be able to experience the poison like a knife.

"My heart is really cold. And Junsu, Yuchun, the company signed a contract with us for 13 years, 13 years! If we don't fight, then I will live like this for another seven years Yes, I am grateful to the company for training me, but it has been six years, if we talk about repayment, I think our efforts should be enough.”

"What about Yunho and Changmin?"

Kim Jae Jong was always talking about "Yoo Chun and Junsu".What about Yunhao?Where did Yunho and Changmin go?Shouldn't the five of them stand together?

If a terrible idea suddenly appeared in Song Ya's mind, if Yunho and Changmin were not on the same team as Jaejong and the others, then "TVXQ" would be doomed to disband.This is completely different from the termination of Shinhwa's contract back then. After leaving S/M, Shinhwa is still the same as Shinhwa back then. The six of them are of one mind. Now, seeing Kim Jae Jong's gloomy expression seems to indicate that TVXQ has cracks inside.

At this moment, the door of the villa opened from the outside, and Yunhao, who was dressed in a black sweater with a stern face, walked in with Changmin, who also looked dignified.Seeing Song Ya, both Yunhao and Changmin were taken aback for a moment, then nodded stiffly: "Sister Yamei."

There is no more talk to each other.

Upstairs, the door opened.Yutian and Junxiu strolled downstairs.This is really a weird and sad moment, the room is quiet, no one speaks, only the cicadas are buzzing outside the window.

"You talk, let's go first." Song Ya stood up, wearing sandals, and walked towards the door of the villa. Just as she walked past Changmin, he suddenly stopped her: "Sister Yamei."

She turned her head and met his clear eyes.

"Will you leave S/M when the contract expires?" he asked.Yunho also turned around at this time.The three looked at each other.

"I don't know, everything is still under consideration." She lowered her eyes, and then looked at them again.Song Ya was telling the truth, Yun Hao looked at her carefully for a second, his expression was still stern, he didn't say anything, then turned away.And Changmin looked at Song Ya for a long time, with a firmness that didn't belong to his age, and said, "I won't leave."

Song Ya noticed that when Changmin finished speaking, everyone except Yunhao was taken aback.The eyes of Youtian and Junxiu were full of confusion, but Jin Zaizhong's eyes showed a trace of hatred, he looked at Yunhao, just like looking at his lover who betrayed him.

The summer wind blows the curtains.

*******************

After Song Ya left, the scene in the villa looked like this——

Yunhao put the two keys on the sofa.

"Brother Zhong, this is the key for Changmin and me. We won't come to this place again, please keep it."

"So..." Zai Zhong looked at Yun Hao expressionlessly, "You guys decided to stay in S/M?"

"It's the decision to stay at TVXQ." Yunhao straightened his back.

"If the three of us leave, there will be no TVX." Jae Chung said coldly.

Yunhao smiled: "You go, I won't stop you, but I want to say today, Changmin and I are here, and TVXQ is here." After speaking, he turned around and left with Changmin.

There's no need to say goodbye, because we've gone our separate ways since then.

"Yunhao, shall we still be friends in the future?" Finally, Zaizhong couldn't help asking, his cold voice was full of reluctance.

Yun Hao turned his head and looked at Kim Jae Jong standing against the light.

That is him who is all too familiar.

"We will always be friends, best friends." After saying this, Yunhao walked out of the villa.

Jin Zaizhong turned his head away, his eyes blurred.

On July 7, due to unfair slave contracts and income distribution, three members of TVXQ, Kim Jaejoong, Park Yoochun, and Kim Junsu, sued the agency S/M together, and submitted an application for [Litigation Preservation of Suspension of Exclusive Contract Validity] to the Seoul Central District Court.

On the same day, S/M announced on the official website that Yunho and Changmin did not file a lawsuit.

TVXQ disbanded.

Another legend has become the past.
