Highest Couple [Entertainment]

Chapter 167

In the studio, the "Children" crew is making the final arrangements before the start-up.Director Lee Kyu-man and the lighting team of the props team confirmed that it was correct, and then greeted screenwriter Lee Hyun-jin and sat next to him for a short rest.

Li Xianzhen handed him his mobile phone: "Look, the Japanese media has been full of news about our heroine these two days."

Lee Kyu-man took it over, the purpose of entry was the group photo of Jin Eun-hwa and Miyazaki Aoi after the Oscars ceremony in Japan, it was not clear from the photo that they were rivals to each other, the two were joking about how close they were.He flipped through a few articles, basically praising the acting skills and demeanor of the two, and by the way, reviewing Jin Eunhe's brilliant record in the Japanese film industry in 2009.Japanese netizens, who have always been harsh on Koreans, were unanimous this time. They all praised the actress who had worked hard in Japan from scratch, and it was a pity that she missed the Japanese Oscar for Best Actress this time.

He smiled, and returned the phone to the screenwriter Li Xianzhen: "It's not a bad thing for Jin Eun and Xi to not win an award this time."

Li Xianzhen glanced at him and said nothing.

Their film is adapted from the "Disappearing Case of the Frog Boy" in South Korea, one of the "Three Unsolved Unsolved Cases".Prior to this, "Memories of Murder" and "That Guy's Voice" based on two other unsolved cases had achieved great success, so when it was rumored in the industry that the last case would be adapted into a movie, many actors wanted to Fighting for the chance to act.But when Jin Eunhe expressed his intention to participate in the show, the investors hardly considered other candidates.Jin Eunhe is famous, status and acting skills. The most attractive thing is that the movie she starred in is very hopeful to be introduced to Japan.No investor would turn away such an actor.But director Lee Kyu-man raised objections to the investors.After a long game between the two sides, each took a step back.Only then did Jin Eunhe join the group.

Lee Kyu Man could read his thoughts from Lee Hyun Jin's expression almost immediately.He explained with some amusement: "It's not what you think, I have no problem with Jin En and Xi. I mean, if Jin En and Xi won the prize this time, the attitude of the Japanese towards her would be different If they are kind, they will feel that a foreigner uses their Japanese resources to snatch the awards that should belong to Japanese actors. This is too beautiful and too much. But when Jin En and Xi are really because of foreigners When she loses the glory she deserved, everyone will feel sympathy for Jin Eunhe."

"That's human nature."

Li Xianzhen thought about it carefully, this is really the case.He smiled and shook his head, then glanced at Li Guiman again: "Before you argued with the investor, I thought you didn't want Jin Eun and Xi to star."

"If I don't fight over this matter, how can investors from other places be willing to give in." Li Guiman lit a cigarette and explained lightly.

"But, didn't you say that you had worked with Jin En and Xi before, but failed? I thought you didn't want to use her again." Li Xianzhen was surprised.

"That movie failed because we couldn't get along with each other on that movie." Lee Kyu-man said calmly: "But a failed collaboration doesn't mean that I will deny that Jin Eun and Xi are good actors. In acting , she is very hardworking and very spiritual."

"So you were optimistic about her acting in this drama?" Li Xianzhen asked with a smile.

To his surprise, Lee Kyu-man denied it again: "No matter how good an actor is, it is impossible to be suitable for all roles. You know that the protagonist we envisioned at the beginning is male." After thinking for a while, he said again: "'Don't worry about being judged by others. He said that he deliberately chose a different ending when repeating Feng Junhao's "Memories of Murder". This movie focuses on revealing human nature and not solving crimes. It is a different movie." This is the first time Jin En and Xi talked to me Said it to me when I started the play."

He raised his eyebrows and sighed to Li Xianzhen: "Listen, listen! Listen to how confident the Golden Shadow Queen is. When I thought about how much we cared about the similarities with "Memories of Murder" when we discussed the script, and couldn't let go of it when we wrote it, I felt We really need the domineering self-confidence of the Golden Shadow Queen."

Is that so?Li Xianzhen was taken aback for a moment.

At this time, there was a noise, and they looked up and found that the protagonist of the topic they just talked about had already put on makeup and entered the studio, ready to shoot.

Lee Kyu-man stood up to meet Jin Eun-hwa.Li Xianzhen stood far outside the studio to observe the legendary actress.To be honest, he couldn't see anything.The only thing that can be felt is that the temperament and expression of the golden actress does not match that of the protagonist Jiang Zhen - there is neither the indifference and enthusiasm of the early stage, nor the middle-aged expression of the later stage that has been exhausted .Such a young girl who seems to be only reminiscent of beauty, if she wants to play a character with a time span of 11 years and a great change in thinking, and interpret complex human nature, the process must be very exciting, right?

He couldn't help but look forward to it.

The background of the play "Children" is Daegu in the 90s. Five children went to the mountains to play together but never came back.This incident caused an uproar at the time. The government dispatched 30 police officers to search the mountain but found nothing. The whole case became a mystery. One day four years later, Jiang Zhen, a well-known program producer, was exiled to Daegu by the TV station because of program fraud. He accidentally discovered that local people were still paying attention to this matter.Ambitious Jiang Zhen wants to make a big news and return to the TV station.So together with Professor Huang who has been following the case, Shen Ke's case for many years seems to have a new turning point.They turned suspicious eyes on Zhong Hao's parents, the parents of the missing child.

-------

In the interior studio, Ryu Seung-ryong, who plays Professor Huang, and Jin Eun-hwa, who plays Jiang Zhen, are filming this scene.

Based on the evidence of the police investigation, Professor Huang speculated that "the parents deliberately hid the children in order to prevent the villagers from voting on time, and the children died in an accident", and asked Jiang Zhen to show her the same important evidence.

Professor Huang pushed a tape to Jiang Zhen: "Please listen to this first." Then press the play button.A conversation between Zhong Hao's mother and a child came from the tape recorder——

"Hello."

"Mother."

"Is it Zhong Hao?"

"it's me."

"Where are you?"

The conversation came to an abrupt end here, followed by a long silence.

Professor Huang turned off the recording and played it again for Jiang Zhen to listen to.The two listened to the conversation again.During this process, Professor Huang was expressionless, and Jiang Zhen was careless.The performances are not the same, but there is a striking similarity, that is, they are unmoved by the dialogue between the mother and child.Even Jiang Zhen tried to interrupt this boring action: "What is this?"

Professor Huang made a gesture of silence: "Shh~" Then he began to count how long the last silence of this conversation lasted with his fingers.After counting to seventeen, the recording ended.Then Professor Huang calmly said to Jiang Zhen: "This is a call from Zhong Hao two months after the children disappeared. Zhong Hao's mother and relatives have confirmed that this is Zhong Hao's voice."

The camera is aimed at Jin Eunhe's face for a close-up.She listened to Professor Huang's analysis, even when she heard that the children were missing, her face was still indifferent. Only when she heard Professor Huang say, "I received a call from a child who had been missing for more than two months, the child Isn't mom's reaction too normal?", showing a thoughtful expression.Then he actively pressed the play button and listened to this recording for the third time.After listening, there was a faint smile on the corner of her mouth, which almost everyone would miss if it wasn't captured by the close-up of the camera.She looked at Professor Huang on the opposite side, the ambition/desire in her eyes was suppressed again and again but she couldn't control it: "For a mother whose child has been missing for two months, this reaction is too calm, isn't it? After asking where you are, there are 17 Seconds of silence, this is not like a mother who has lost her child."

After finishing speaking, the two looked at each other silently for a few seconds. Although their expressions were restrained, it was obvious that some kind of consensus had been reached between them.

Li Xianzhen stared at Jin Eunhe's face from the sidelines.Knowing that this is filming, it is all fake, and even he wrote this episode himself, but when he saw Jin Eunhe's expression and listened to her calm but joyful voice, he felt a chill run down his spine Crawl all over the body.

How could a woman be so indifferent and selfish?

How can a woman have no sympathy at all?

Terrible, such a performance is terrible.

After the shooting of this section, the director took a few more shots from other angles, and ended all the shooting tasks of this interior scene.

But Li Xianzhen looked at Jin Eunhe, who had returned to gentleness and politeness after a while, and gradually had some thoughts in his heart: He suddenly realized that changing the protagonist's gender from male to female may change not only the gender.And this became more and more obvious as the shooting progressed.

On this day, when the crew was filming the story of the children just missing, the TV station invited the parents to live broadcast a section of the program on TV: Jiang Zhen saw the parents' grief in the control room, but still only cared about his own program time being blocked. Squeeze and find ways to shorten the live broadcast, and even indifferently comment on the parents' speeches as "too much nonsense and no point".

After filming this section, Jin Eunhe signaled hello to the staff, then quietly retreated to the side to rest, allowing himself to slowly separate himself from the emotions just now.This is the first time for her to interpret a negative character. Acting skills are not difficult for her to tell the truth, but the difficulty lies in the psychological burden of the role on her.She needs more time than usual to get into the drama and digest the negative energy brought to her by Jiang Zhen.

She is closing her eyes and meditating.But she felt someone sitting down next to her.She opened her eyes, looked sideways, and saw screenwriter Li Xianzhen looking at her, hesitating to speak.Jin Eunhe smiled and took the initiative to speak: "Writer Li has something to say to me?"

"Jin Eun and Xi, they acted really well." Li Xianzhen paused.Jin Eunhe heard that what he wanted to say should not be this, so he thanked him bluntly, but gestured with his eyes and encouraged him to continue talking with a smile.

Li Xianzhen gritted his teeth, he felt that he still had to say these words to be worthy of his conscience: "But Jin Eun and Xi are acting too well, aren't you afraid that the audience will be disgusted after the release? When I wrote these plots, Jiang Zhen was originally supposed to be a man. If it was a man who did this and repented later, the audience would still accept it. But..."

"But if it's a woman, the audience can't accept it. Because women should naturally have motherhood and sympathy. But men can be forgiven because society has different requirements for them, and they value their careers more than anything else. It's a moment of obsession. If you go astray, as long as you can sincerely repent and correct your mistakes, you can forget the past." Jin Enhe took Li Xianzhen's words with a smile, and added his meaning: "Is that so? Writer Li?"

What Li Xianzhen wanted to say was finished by Jin Eunhe, even more bluntly than him.He didn't know what else to say for a while, so he could only ask her: "So, why did Jin En and Xi pick it up?" He knew that he would be scolded, so why did he rush to act?

Jin Eunhe thought for a while, looked sideways at Li Xianzhen and smiled lightly: "Writer Li, why do women have to represent motherhood and warmth in movies, and they are not allowed to do anything for career and ambition? I don't think that men and women There is an essential difference. Besides, don’t you think that when such indifference is shown by a woman, it will make the film have a stronger impact?”

The theater manager came to inform Jin En and the next filming was about to be ready.

Jin Eunhe stood up and thanked the director politely, then she turned her head to look at Li Xianzhen with a calm smile on her face: "Don't worry, since I dare to answer, I'm not afraid of criticism."

Li Xianzhen looked at Jin Eunhe's back as he walked towards the studio in awe.He suddenly realized that when Lee Kyu-man said in a joking tone that day that he chose Kim Eun-hwa because he "needs the domineering self-confidence of a golden actress", he was not actually joking.

He opened his own script, thinking, maybe he can also be a little more bold in the arrangement of the plot.

The filming of "The Children" is going more smoothly than expected.It was started in early March, and after half a month, it was transferred from the interior studio in Seoul to the countryside of Daegu, and started shooting exterior scenes.Jin Eunhe also moved to Daegu with the crew, except for filming, he can only surf the Internet every day.Because the staff members of the production team are playing a micro-blog social network called Twitter, so they also follow suit and sign up for one. It is right to relax by checking news and gossip on Twitter every day.

But within a few days, she couldn't relax when she checked Twitter.Because the most worrying things that Zheng Yunhao predicted before, all happened.

On April 4th, Ai Hui announced that TVXQ would stop activities in Japan, and the members would develop independently.

On the 7th, Park Yoochun was confirmed as the leading actor in the Korean drama "Sungkyunkwan Scandal".

On the 12th, SM, which was too late to wait for Kim Jae-joong and the three members who left to file a formal contract termination lawsuit, first filed a lawsuit in the court, requesting confirmation that the exclusive contract for the three members is valid, and claiming 22 billion won (approximately 1760 million) from the three members. RMB) to compensate for the loss of income such as the cancellation of TVXQ’s Shenzhen concert and compensation for breach of contract of TVXQ’s endorsement cosmetics.

On the 14th, Ai Hui announced on the official website that the three of them, Kim Jae-joong, had signed a contract with Ai Hui's company, and they will carry out activities in Japan in the form of a trio.

This series of news made the fans of Jin Zaizhong and the other three happy and excited. What they were most worried about before was that they would be blocked by SM if they left Ouba.Now, their Ouba just left SM and got the chance to star in a TV series and also signed a separate contract with Japan's largest record company Aihui. From then on, SM, a bully, can no longer abuse their Ouba!

When they were celebrating together, no one thought that Ai Hui's single signing of Kim Jaejoong and the three of them meant that TVXQ would be completely banned in Japan.Perhaps they are not unexpected, but this makes them more proud:

【Hehehe, these two cowards, Homin, dare not follow Zaizhong because they are afraid of being blocked by SM.Unexpectedly, the way of heaven is reincarnation, and now they are the ones who are blocked. 】

[Oh my god!Sure enough, Ai Hui's President Matsuura is the real good guy, he signed the third brother and kept TVXQ!Even if SM bans my third brother in Korea, don’t be afraid, the Korean market is nothing, having Japan, the world’s largest music market, is king! 】

[I used to think that SM was so hooked?As a result, I have Tianouba and became the lead actor of a TV series as soon as I left SM.This is an opportunity that you will never get at SM.Sure enough, as long as we leave SM, an annoying company, we will have a wider world. 】

【Yeah yeah~ Ouba is no longer a tool to make money, you can make your own music~】

……

Yet as they go about expressing their joy, they fail to realize that not every Cassiopeia thinks the same as them.

Choi Jin Hee received a call from Jung Mi Joo on the afternoon of the 15th, the day after Kim Jae Joong announced the establishment of a new group.

When seeing Zheng Meizhu's name appear on the caller ID of her mobile phone, Cui Zhenxi was dazed for a moment.

She and Zheng Meizhu have known each other since childhood.Later they fell in love with the same group, although they were not the same members, but in their youth, they worked for the same group and exhausted the rare and precious enthusiasm in life for the same goal.Even though they weren't close friends, they shared each other's girlhood.

Unknowingly, they become involved in each other's lives.

And all of this ended with the beginning of the dispute over the termination of the contract.They confront each other, fight secretly, and regard each other as enemies.Cui Zhenxi couldn't figure out why she contacted herself at this time?Is it to show off to herself that she has won?

Cui Zhenxi answered the phone with great anticipation, but what was waiting for her was not the taunting she thought.

"I, here's a recording. It's about the meeting between Junxiu's father and the other two parents on June 6 last year." Zheng Meizhu said, "You know which meeting I'm talking about. I guess with your ability I'm afraid I already got part of it. But what I have here is the full one-hour version."

Of course Cui Jinxi knew which meeting it was!On the eve of the termination of the contract, the parents of the three members called the fan executives to pour dirty water on Haomin to slander them for betraying the members and to arrange a strategy to smear Haomin!But isn't Zheng Meizhu one of the people behind the scenes?Would she be so kind to give her such important evidence?

Cui Zhenxi was puzzled: "Why? You should know that after I get it, I will definitely use it to counter Jin Junxiu. Aren't you his loyal fan for six years?"

Zheng Meizhu was silent, and after a long time, she said in a low voice: "They have signed a contract with Ai Hui, and they are going to form another group. I thought they were just trying to protect themselves. I didn't expect them to cut off TVXQ's last hope for themselves. I..." Her voice was dry, "I was once Cassiopeia too."

Cut off TVXQ's last hope.When Zheng Meizhu directly stabbed this sentence Cui Zhenxi dared not face in front of her, Cui Zhenxi could no longer control her reason!

"Stop talking!" Choi Jin Hee cut her off sharply with red eyes: "Aren't you the one who helped them do this and cut off TVXQ's last hope?! What right do you have to mention the word Cassiopeia again!"

She should be more sensible.Before getting this crucial evidence, she should control her words and not provoke Zheng Meizhu.What if Zheng Meizhu becomes angry and repents?

But she can't do it!

Cui Jinxi said cruelly: "What? After killing someone, you come back to apologize, thinking that saying I'm sorry, thinking that you can make up for it, can you pretend that nothing happened?"

"You will always be Cassiopeia's sinner!"

Zheng Meizhu was silent for a while, and then she spoke again, and she became that arrogant young lady again.It seems that the apology, pain and fragility revealed on the phone just now is just Cui Zhenxi's illusion.She told Cui Zhenxi coldly and arrogantly: "I don't care what you think. I have sent the recording to your mailbox. How you want to do it is your business."

After a pause, the last thing she said to Cui Zhenxi was: "Goodbye." After she finished speaking, she hung up the phone without waiting for Cui Zhenxi to answer.

Zheng Meizhu put down her phone.Admitting to Cui Zhenxi that she did something wrong was not as difficult as she imagined.The moment she clicked to send the email, she suddenly felt that she had gained a long-lost peace.She picked up an English letter on the table, which was an admission notice from the other side of the ocean.

Goodbye, Jin Hee.

Goodbye, TVXQ.

Farewell, my girlish fantasy.

This time I really want to say goodbye.

The author has something to say: Jung Mi Joo bid farewell to her Girls' Generation.suddenly very sad

PS: In reality, the exposed recording is a fan of Kim Junsu.The source of inspiration for the character Jung Mi Joo is her.She was the one who participated in 625, and she was the one who exposed 625.I often wonder what kind of mood she used to expose all this.
