Chapter 220
November 2012, 11, Seoul Olympic Gymnastics Arena.
Today is Friday, starting tomorrow, TVXQ will hold two consecutive days of concerts here.This is TVXQ's first concert in Korea after nearly four years and after their comeback as a duo, its importance is self-evident.
Concerts have to arrange the venue one day in advance.Zheng Yunhao brought TVXQ's entire team to the venue early in the morning.Setting up the stage, adjusting equipment, discussing security with the venue staff, coordinating the venue and surrounding stalls... There are a lot of miscellaneous things. Even if he is doing skilled work and has a stage director, Zheng Yunhao still dare not relax. In one link, everything is done by yourself.
It was not until the evening when the first round of rehearsal was about to start, that Shen Jae-won took advantage of the time when Shen Changmin was auditioning with the staff on stage, and chatted with Zheng Yunhao: "You have had a thrilling week~ Announced your marriage at the peak. This courage is worthy of you."
Zheng Yunhao just smiled and didn't speak.
Shen Zaiyuan looked at his face and sighed: "But the pressure is even greater. I heard that this time the company has completely ignored your fan operation. How are you going to solve the dissatisfaction of the fans?"
Zheng Yunhao was silent for a few seconds: "I plan to do nothing this time."
"Do nothing?!" Shen Zaiyuan couldn't believe it, "How can an artist not manage and guide fans? You have been in this circle for more than ten years. Didn't you control your fans very well before? Why are you suddenly hypocritical now? Is it? This is just a normal business operation, there is nothing wrong with it. And you know, fans are a very fanatical group, if no one guides them, it will easily lead to big troubles. Giving guidance is an artist’s love for fans.”
"I know." Zheng Yunhao had a calm expression, "But this time, I hope they can trust me, so I have to give them trust first."
Shen Zaiyuan stared at him for a long time, and murmured: "Don't tell me, since you announced your marriage, you haven't seen a fan's reaction..."
Zheng Yunhao nodded lightly: "I don't."
Shen Zaiyuan's face was filled with disbelief, and while muttering "convinced", he turned on his phone and checked Twitter.
Zheng Yunhao paused while drinking water, stood up and walked towards the stage, clapping his hands as he walked to signal everyone to look at him: "Okay, enough rest, let's rehearse first and see if there is any problem with the process..."
"Wait a minute!" Shen Zaiyuan called to stop him behind him.
Zheng Yunhao turned his head.
Shen Zaiyuan raised his phone and shook it at him: "I think you should read this."
Zheng Yunhao hesitated for a while, then made up his mind to go back, took it from Shen Zaiyuan's hand and looked at the screen.Shen Jae-won's mobile phone interface stays on the hot search page of South Korea's Twitter, and the topic that ranks at the top of the list is surprisingly such a topic - #StandbyU#.
This is the name of the song that TVXQ sang when they appeared on the red and white stage for the last time as five members.As if by God's will, the title of this song has become a true portrayal of him and Shen Changmin, and has been used countless times by fans in videos supporting him.
His hands trembled slightly, and then he clicked on this topic:
[Only if Jung Yunho gets married, I won't be angry or panic.Because I know how much my brother has paid for TVXQ these years, and I also know that he will never give up on TVXQ and give up on us.Yunho deserves our Cassiopeia forever #StandbyU#】
[I once criticized other idols when their relationship broke out, but this time I am unconditional #StandbyU#.I don't have a double standard.I still think that idols who sell boyfriends and rely on fans to spend money to survive are not eligible to fall in love.But U-Know Yunho is not, he has exhausted all his enthusiasm and efforts for the stage, no one can escape the fate of becoming a fan after watching his stage.He deserves the respect that every fan pays for him. 】
……
Zheng Yunhao switched to Twitter Japan in silence:
【Today, when the idol industry is so mature, everyone actually understands what packaging and character design are.I have liked many idols since I was a child, and I have seen too many disappointing truths.Maybe someone hates Yunho-sang getting married, but I'm just the opposite.Yunho-sang, as I thought, is a man who is always going all out regardless of his dreams or love.He once infected me with enthusiasm and persistence, and encouraged me to persist in my dreams during my most difficult times.Now I also use practical actions to prove to me that such a person is not my fantasy, but a real existence.I will always #StandbyU#. 】
[I became a fan of TVXQ after I accidentally heard the song "BackToTomorrow" in an advertisement.At that time, I lost a very important person in the earthquake, and I was indulging in grief and escaping from society for a long time.It was TVXQ's powerful and hopeful singing that poured into my heart and gave me the courage to get out of my sadness.Originally, when Yunho got married, I was angry and sad.But when I watched their program and the video of "Gwangju Boy", I saw him running in the streets of Tokyo during the earthquake, just to make sure the safety of his loved ones.I cried, because I have also experienced it, and I know how it feels.I suddenly felt relieved.Many people don't know what is most important to them until they lose it. Yunho-sang truly understands the people who love.Only such a person can sing a song that rekindles my enthusiasm for life~ I really didn’t like the wrong person~ Please continue to convey the beautiful feelings in the world to everyone~ I will always be your loyal listener #StandbyU#]
【#StandbyU# What attracts me to follow is TVXQ-san's effortless appearance on stage, their mutual support and never-separating relationship, and their cherishing and caring for fans.If such people who live seriously are not worthy of happiness, then God is too unfair. 】
……
Thailand, Malaysia... He looked at it country by country, and he couldn't understand a lot of words, but the tag #StandbyU# itself has already expressed the position of the author.
Zheng Yunhao stared at the solidarity on the screen, his eyes were moist.Facing the fans' selfless and hot love for him, he felt irrepressible emotion and guilt: They didn't have to bear the sudden blow, and they didn't have the obligation to forgive him for giving up, but they still chose him.
He turned his head in a direction where no one could see, and blinked hard to get rid of the moisture in his eyes.Then he returned the phone to Shen Jae-won with a normal expression.
Shen Changmin stood on the stage and looked at his back from a distance, feeling swollen and indescribably sour and sad.He walked to the edge of the stage, jumped down to the rest area to pick up Zheng Yunhao's water glass, and was about to take it to his brother when he heard Zheng Yunhao's cell phone ringing.He took off Zheng Yunhao's coat pocket and threw it on the chair, and found Zheng Yunhao's mobile phone. The name on the phone's caller ID was very familiar, and it was in charge of ticketing in their working team in Japan.
Shen Changmin was thrilled, and quickly glanced at the time displayed on the phone: 17:00 on the 21th.It's past midnight, that is to say, the application for lottery has ended, and the result of the lottery application should come out.He immediately ran over with Zheng Yunhao's cell phone tightly: "Brother, it's a Japanese number."
Zheng Yunhao took the mobile phone, connected the call, and walked towards the corner while talking to the other end calmly.
Although the surrounding staff can't understand Japanese, they are very tactful and don't pay attention to the content of the phone, and concentrate on their own work.Only Shen Changmin followed Zheng Yunhao step by step, worrying about the situation of the lottery.
"...Okay, thank you for your hard work, please leave the follow-up work." Zheng Yunhao ended the call and turned to look at Shen Changmin.
Shen Changmin pursed his lower lip nervously, his palms were sweating: "How is it? How many people applied for the lottery this time?"
Zheng Yunhao's expression was very strange, as if he wanted to laugh, but he was overwhelmed by complicated emotions, so he couldn't laugh out: "The application rate of the lottery is close to 400%. After the second lottery, we will start preparing for the addition."
"What..." Shen Changmin was shocked and hesitated, unable to believe his ears.He had already made the most tragic psychological preparations, and he had estimated the most optimistic situation.But never thought that the result would be better than what they planned before they got married.
"Changmin~ We really owe them too much..." Zheng Yunhao's eyes were slightly red, and he restrained the turbulent emotions after a long while.He patted Shen Changmin on the shoulder: "Let's go. Let's go to rehearse and reward them with the best performance."
"Yeah." Shen Changmin didn't say much, just held Zheng Yunhao's hand, and lightly bumped his chest with him in response.This is their silent tacit understanding.
On November 11th, TVXQ's The17thWORLDTOUR~CATCHME~ will be held for the first time.When the lights in the audience were turned off and the reborn two people and the bright red TVXQ appeared on the big screen, the fans in the audience burst into tears—the puppets they had been waiting for for four years are finally back!
"risingsun", "getaway", "hey", "O Pros and Cons" each has songs and dances that are so intense that it is breathless, but the two danced four songs in one breath at the beginning, until their faces became pale. Bai also showed a little tiredness for everyone to see, and bowed to the fans with a relaxed expression to say hello: "First of all, long time no see, greetings everyone."
After nine years of familiarity, the deep-rooted greetings sounded: "One, two, three, hello everyone, we are TVXQ!"
What responded to them was the familiar, deafening cheers that seemed to lift the roof of the venue.
Looking at the red sea in front of him, Zheng Yunhao slowly raised the microphone: "I think everyone has heard the news this week."
As soon as he said this, the cheers of the fans gradually subsided.Naturally, they all understood what kind of news Zheng Yunhao was talking about.Five days is enough for them to digest.Before they came, they also thought about whether Yunho would give them an explanation at the concert.But what kind of explanation they want, they are very at a loss.
"Actually, I thought about whether to write to everyone." Zheng Yunhao said, "But I have been writing for a long time, and found that no matter how many words I write, it seems that I can't explain my complicated mental journey and my guilt to everyone. So in the end I decided Here, tell everyone face to face and personally."
All the fans held their breath and looked up at him, at the captain they had relied on and admired for many years.
Zheng Yunhao's eyes solemnly and slowly swept across the red sea that came for him, from the far left end of the venue to the far right end, as if he wanted to remember every face.Then bowed deeply: "I'm sorry."
"Don't..." some fans cried intermittently.Maybe even the fans who shouted didn't know whether they didn't want him to get married or didn't want to see him humbly apologize.Gradually, screams and cries merged into one.
Zheng Yunhao didn't raise his head, and stubbornly maintained this apologetic posture.
Shen Changmin quietly watched his stubborn figure behind him.
He knew that the most sensible approach was to stay out of the matter and let Zheng Yunhao solve this crisis by himself.But at this moment, he didn't want Brother Yunhao to be alone.
Shen Changmin suddenly stepped forward, gently patted Jung Yunho on the back, then helped him up, and took care of warming up with a smile—just like what Jung Yunho did in the past: "Today's red is very dazzling~ everyone, Are you ready to run with us in the future?"
There was a dragged answer amidst sobs.
Shen Changmin shook his head: "This aura is not like our beautiful and powerful Cassiopeia~ I ask again, are you ready to run with us in the future? Do you want everyone to be together until the end?!"
As long as TVXQ and Cassiopeia are together forever, there is nothing that cannot be overcome.Wiping away the tears, all the courage and love returned to their chests.Countless resounding answers came together neatly——
"Inside!"
The video made by U-Bunny and the video of Jung Yunho apologizing from the concert once again ignited the topic in Asia.
12 years of long-distance love running, the love fairy tale of first love and marriage, the combination of top idol and top actor, the 27-year-old male idol announced his marriage at the peak of his career, the touching plot of CP fans, the ups and downs of Zheng Yunhao's career...even Zheng Yunhao's relationship with his ex The love and hatred of teammates are all involved in the discussion.
Each one taken out alone is an extremely eye-catching news point, not to mention the explosive effect of focusing on one thing.
Various programs and news are reported in turn.
MBC is blessed with the cooperation drama "Palace" where the couple's scandal started. As early as the day when the wedding news was announced, an emergency internal meeting was held to cancel the schedule of the originally scheduled drama and rebroadcast it in prime time on the TV station.Today, when the ratings of TV dramas are declining, the ratings actually beat the new dramas of the same period.
Other TV stations are heartbroken to the point of embarrassment!People in the industry actually know that these two are model couples, why didn't they think of inviting them to co-produce a movie!
So they found another way. KBS has released a series of programs, dedicated to picking up the timeline of the two and the videos released by cp fans, and doing special reports to analyze their love history.The ratings of each issue are breaking their own records.
SBS was dumbfounded, and gritted its teeth and sent someone to discuss the live broadcast rights of TVXQ's Seoul concert the next day.Then I went to the film company owned by Kim Eun-hwa and Jung Yun-ho to buy the movie version of "Heading the Earth".Otherwise, they will simply fall behind!This is not only an issue of ratings, but an issue of dignity as the three major TV stations!
All the media want to interview them.Countless businessmen came to their door, hoping to sponsor their wedding.Invite two people to endorse the product.
Everyone is talking about them, watching them.Countless pairs of eyes stared at them.
Even straight men are full of stock trading forums that don't care about gossip and gossip. The topics these days can't be avoided:
[It must be a bolt from the blue for the fans.But as a passerby, I really admire U-Know Yunho's courage.So many bad artists can continue to win the support of fans. If a hard-working and kind-hearted artist like U-Know Yunho xi is abandoned just because of loyalty and responsibility, I will feel it is a pity. 】
[Probably not, the stocks of Aihui and SM have been rising for several days.Capital will not lie, they are voting with real money. 】
[? !Didn't it fall extremely badly last week?It went up again this week?Why?Is there any news? 】
[It seems that because U-Knowxi personally said in the program, "I want to be TVXQ until I die", investors felt that TVXQ would not break up, so they regained some confidence. 】
【What I heard is that last week TVXQ’s five-egg tour ticket lottery application results came out.People with connections got accurate information, saying that it was "beyond expectations" hotness. 】
【Wow!In my impression, TVXQ seems to be out of date, not the most popular group anymore, I didn't expect that U-Know Yunho's marriage will cause such a big shock.Feeling overturned my cognition. 】
[For an old group like TVXQ, the popularity is all fake, making money is the most important thing.As long as the portfolio can be kept stable, there is no need to worry about the share of the touring market. It is a low-input, high-yield and low-risk project that investors love most. 】
[But no matter what, the news of getting married will definitely lose a considerable number of fans, right? 】
[For sure, so it depends on whether they can attract more new fans in the future. 】
【It's hard, they've been in the group for almost ten years, they can be called the original idol.To attract new fans is to compete with juniors who have just debuted, right? 】
[I also find it difficult.But no star can escape such a fate.It is impossible to be at the top forever. 】
[One is a top idol who created the prosperity of Hallyu and can be used as a symbol of the times, and the other is a top actor who can leave a name in film history and win numerous awards. Even if their careers stop immediately, such two people are enough to be honored for a lifetime. 】
[That's right, they are all the top people in their own industries, and they are truly the highest couples in the Korean entertainment industry.No one needs to worry about their future. 】
[The highest couple? 23333 should now be called the Supreme Couple. 】
……
The two people at the center of the topic storm really didn't have any extra thoughts to worry about their future.
Because I'm so busy that I don't have time to worry.
Four years later, TVXQ's first Asian tour has officially started after the two returned. Although business negotiations for tours in various countries do not need to be done in person, they all need to be checked by Jung Yunho.
The invitations to the stage at the end of the year have arrived, how long will the performance be?Where does it play?How are you treated?Of course, Zheng Yunhao can directly hand it over to the company, but he can't feel at ease as the shopkeeper.
In Japan, the Five Eggs tour is about to start, which also means that countless things are coming one after another.
The tour must release a new album, so he has to finish the production and release of the new Japanese album within two months.
To prepare for the stage of the tour.From the playlist to the choreography, from the selection of stage equipment to the recruitment of the tour team.Everything had to be done by himself.
He needs to visit the sponsor in person, he needs to finalize the conditions for the live broadcast of the TV station, and he needs to look at the periphery of the tour...
In addition, there are countless new jobs popping up.For example, the drawing of tickets has not been completed yet, but the preparations for adding games must be put on the agenda. How many more games will be added?Where to add it?You have to make a choice immediately, otherwise you won't be able to grab the venue.
And he also accepted "The Wild King" desperately.Although there are not many roles for the second male lead, it will start in early January.He was born as an idol, and his acting skills are inherently weaker than professional actors, so naturally he needs to spend more time studying the characters so as not to slow down.
Not to mention worrying about his career, he didn't even have time to hold a wedding.
Of course, even if he wanted to hold a wedding at this time, Jin Eunhe didn't have the energy.
The film post-production of "So Near, So Far" is basically completed, but Jin Eunhe is still striving for perfection and has not been finalized.If you have new ideas, you will revise them with the staff at any time.
Then she flew to Japan.
In Japan, at the end of each year and the beginning of the next year, it is the film awards season. In 2012, there were not many Japanese movies she released, and more cameo roles. Only "Family Kingdom" has the ability to hit awards.
But even if Jin Eunhe only has this movie, it is tough enough.Because at the beginning of the year, "The Kingdom of the Family" had won the International Art Film Alliance Award at the Berlin Film Festival.
It is a pity that this year she did not achieve the sweeping event that she had in 09.It was not until January 2013, 1 that she won the Blue Ribbon Award for Best Actress.Ten days later, she won the Best Actress Award at the Japanese Film Weekly Awards.
The only and most influential Japanese Academy Award in Japan that she failed to win before, she once again awarded the award to someone else.
Amano Hongichi was very angry about this.
He feels that no matter the depth and level of the film itself, or the shaping of the characters, there is no doubt that his own artists are the best!
The Academy Awards never awarded the Best Actress to one of her artists, which definitely suppressed her!
Jin Eunhe's state of mind was unusually peaceful.
Ever since she finished filming "So Close, So Far", she knew that she had broken through the long-standing bottleneck.The gain or loss of one or two awards has lost meaning to her.
The most difficult thing is what play she chooses next.
Of the scripts handed to her by Japan, only one interested her the most, and it was the movie "Little Home" that director Yoji Yamada was preparing.
Yamada Yoji is a very famous and prolific director in Japan. Jin Eunhe has been developing in Japan for many years, but it is amazing that he has not acted in his movies yet.
Even for the sake of long-term development, Jin Eunhe still wants to fight to appear in his movie.
"Little Home" is about the memories of an old woman.A country girl who comes to Tokyo to work as a maid admires her dignified and charming mistress very much.But one day, she discovered the secret of the hostess' infidelity...
Yoji Yamada took the initiative to find Jin Enhe to play the role, because he was fascinated by Mrs. Zhizi played by Jin Enhe.
He needs Jin Enhe's dignified, elegant and mysteriously fragile temperament in "Wei Rong's Wife", and the sense of contradiction that is always struggling on the edge of danger.
But Jin Eunhe had no interest in the role of the heroine after reading the script.She has played similar roles and performed well, it is difficult to have the desire to perform the same roles again.
Her fancy role is that of a maid.
But what worries Kim is the film's subject matter: it tells a story about Japan during World War II.
