Jolin Tsai's road to stardom

Childhood-a "doll" with extraordinary intelligence

1980 September 15, Taipei, a little person named joling tsai was born-that's me. When I was young, I was introverted and shy. When I grow up, I am impatient and love beauty. What hasn't changed is height! Hee hee, am I petite enough to be only 158 cm tall?

The biggest feature of my nickname "doll" when I was a child was my big eyes. When I was a child, I was very smart. Before I went to primary school, my mother sent me to learn Japanese math. Mathematics was quickly learned in the first and second grades of primary school. From this point, my mother knows that my little girl should study hard in the future. Sure enough, from the first grade of primary school, I ranked in the top three every semester, only once I didn't work hard and got the tenth place. I remember my mother was so angry that she picked up her slippers and gave me a good spanking. I was deeply impressed by being beaten this time. Since then, I have never been in the top three.

But you know what? So smart, when I was a child, I was almost regarded as "mentally retarded" by my mother! At that time, my family didn't have time to take care of me because of business, so they handed me over to the nurse. It was not until I was over one year old that my mother discovered that I couldn't be better. I often stare at a pair of big eyes and suck my fingers. I didn't cry or make trouble, thinking I was a "slow-witted", and hurried home from my wet nurse. Not bad! Later, it proved that my IQ was fine, and my big eyes became more and more flexible, just like a doll, which gave me the nickname "doll".

My mother has always said that I am a good boy and don't have to worry about my parents. Actually, I was rebellious in high school. Recalling that when I was a child, other students asked me to do small things well, I felt very lucky because the education at home was very relaxed, which allowed me to develop freely. Of course, I am also good at reading faces! When you want to do something amazing, you can always choose when your mother is in a good mood, and the probability of success is very high!

Entering the profession-it is not easy for student singers to do it.

The first time I stood on the stage was at the orientation meeting of the Thermoacoustic Society in Grade Two. I sang "Zombies" by cranberries. Only from the applause of others did I know that I sang well. But I began to love the stage, but I sang "Rose" for the teachers and students present at the dance in Grade Two, and the enthusiastic response from the audience made me unforgettable for a long time. It was the first time that I built up confidence in singing and had a vision for the beginning of singing.

1998, I 19 years old. With the recommendation of the school and the encouragement of my classmates, I participated in the "Freshman Card War" music competition held by MTV Music Station. Maybe not many people dare to take the signature songs of Mariah Carey and Whitney Houston as their entries! Although I have not received any training, I can sing and dance well, dare to show off on the stage, and have rich body language, so I won the championship in the competition with more than 3000 players.

That same year, I graduated from Jingmei. In May, he was admitted to the Foreign Languages Department of Fudan University with the first place in the exam. 1March, 999, Universal Records signed me, and I became the key newcomer of the year after the global system integrated resources.

After signing with Universal Records, the company arranged a series of courses for me. Take dance lessons twice a week to help me improve my stage performance ability; Language training courses let me face the media frankly. These two courses lasted for half a year. Make up lessons twice a week for a month, so that I can make up for it myself when I am in a hurry or have a simple interview. I even go to Ireland, new york and other places from time to time to watch the performances of foreign artists and observe their stage performance styles.

But in the first wave of publicity, I was afraid to look at the camera because I couldn't overcome my fear of the camera. As a result, many photos were taken from the side. But fortunately, I learned quickly, worked hard and was modest, and soon got on the right track.

The first step is to gain a foothold in the music world successfully. This achievement is not easy for me. I have to take care of my studies and career. Every day after class, we should catch up with the "notice" until the early hours of the morning, and use the gap waiting for the stage to write homework and study; I often shoot films until the next morning. When I go home and take off my makeup, I pick up my schoolbag and catch up with the first class. As a student singer, I am often exhausted. But reading is always the most important part of my life. Even if I have to work harder than others, I can never give up my studies to realize my singing dream. Such a hard journey has made me cherish the hard-won affirmation and support, and I am more afraid of the next road.

Let's change the light topic and tell you how I changed my name to Jolin Tsai. Because fortune telling is popular in the entertainment circle, they took my name and calculated it. After calculation, I may think that my original name is too lacking in personality, so I changed it to a more distinctive name, called Jolin Tsai.

Music is my greatest happiness (2)

I think it is the greatest happiness to be able to sing all my life because of my interest. My interest in singing is my strongest energy motivation, and my favorite songs are those with power.

I didn't really dream of becoming a singer until 18 entered the business, but I didn't feel like a singer when I released my first record. I didn't feel like a singer until I got in touch with it slowly and wanted to do well.

Although she debuted as an idol singer, she has been making progress in singing. The maturity of my later album style and the change of styling are enough for everyone to see my painstaking efforts.

In order to practice singing, I will also listen to many records of female singers, and then choose a singing method that is more suitable for me. Moreover, I flew to new york specially, and the company arranged for Don Lawrence, the singing teacher of Bang Fei Qiao and Christine, and Bev, the dance teacher of Streamlined Fat Boy, to create a complete set of music training for me. Because the tuition is extremely expensive, I am afraid in class and I don't slack off at all. I'm afraid I'll lose a few hundred dollars accidentally!

Don Lawrence, a singing teacher, is a singing teacher of international superstars such as Fei Qiao and Christine. The one-hour course is nearly NT$ 20,000. If the students are late, the teacher won't wait for someone! The singing teacher is very kind. At first, I only thought I was a little girl, but after listening to the album, I found that my singing skills were very explosive, which surprised him how I could make such a big voice! Don Lawrence also praised me for my accurate intonation, clean singing and serious attitude! However, the teacher also said something that embarrassed me. He said it's a pity that I am currently developing in Taiwan Province Province. If I have the opportunity to come to the United States and enter the international market, I can also become an international superstar! The teacher's words immediately made my face blush. I thought to myself, God, if I had known, I would have hid and listened to the teacher speak well of myself in person.

Money-money bothers me.

At present, although I am a student, I have also sold a few records well and made a lot of money by shooting advertisements one after another. But I still keep a frugal view of money and dare not spend money indiscriminately. Almost all the money I earned was saved by my mother for me. Sometimes, when I hear the staff talking about the price of new mobile phones, some people buy a leather bag of hundreds of thousands, and I spend tens of thousands of modeling fees, I will be surprised: "So expensive!" Let me tell you a little secret. What I like best now is "bargaining"!

As you all know, I had a big conflict with the company on the issue of money last year. These "money" problems really bother me!

The thing is, Wu Dawei, the head of my agency Loud, asked me to sign a power of attorney at the celebration dinner of my "non-stop" concert in 2000. At that time, I was very happy and trusted my teacher Wu Dawei, so I signed the contract without reading the contents clearly. Later, my mother saw me sign it and signed it without any doubt. Wu Dawei asked my father not to know about the contract. But I didn't expect my father to find out later that this so-called authorization agreement was simply a "deed of sale", because the contract stated that I agreed to entrust the future performance to the "Loud" brokerage company, and the contract also stated that "Loud" decided to sign the future record contract to Warner Records. As the performance form is not stipulated in the contract, the lawyer thinks this contract is very unfavorable and unreasonable for me. So in the end, my parents and sister accompanied me and held a press conference with the lawyer of Guomao Law Firm, saying that Loud Music Production Company wanted me to sign an unreasonable contract similar to prostitution without my knowledge. In addition, after two years of cooperation, Loud's account is unclear, which is detrimental to my rights and interests, so I decided to terminate the brokerage contract with Loud.

This time, I had an economic dispute with Mr. Zuo, and the focus of the dispute was still because of "money." The dispute over signing this contract actually happened more than a year ago, in order not to affect each other's feelings. I've been keeping a low profile and don't want to say anything publicly. Everything is handled by my father. But now, "loudly" accusing my father of being difficult and "crazy" is the last thing I want to see. My parents are my closest relatives. I don't want anyone to hurt them.

Accompanying Achievements and Defamation (3)

During the half-year production, I was the main artist of Universal Pictures Asia. Under the planning of the company, the first music tour became a veritable "Miss Universe", covering Singapore, Britain, the United States, Ireland and Japan. I met Boyzon in Dublin, a group of kings, and became the advertising spokesperson of the annual corporate image. Since I officially entered the music scene in September 2000, my records have been selling well. The first album "10 19" gained a good momentum in Taiwan Province province, and the second album "Don't Stop" sold 400,000 copies and won the Golden Melody Award of the year. Although I have many enemies in the record market, I still have confidence in my new album. My recent awards are a worldwide award, namely "MTV Music Award" and "Asia's Most Popular Singer" Award. This award gave me great encouragement. You know, this is a very noticeable musical event.

Because I became a singer by taking part in a singing contest, I can feel the feeling that I have achieved results but I am too tired to cry. At first, I didn't want to be a "cannibal" at all, but I quickly became popular in a short time. Before I am ready, I must face the challenges that follow. The most difficult thing to let go of is not some achievements, but the slander of those "malicious rumors." Sometimes when walking on the road, I even get the cold eyes of strangers for no reason.

I have dual personality.

I am a person with dual personality. On the surface, I am shy and quiet, and I study hard, but I have tattoos that belong to new people and are very expressive on the stage. The shyness of a good girl and the momentum of a new human being exist in me at the same time. I am very cautious about things and demand perfection. Since my debut, I have lost weight 10 kg. During the day and at night, I read and work alternately. Not only tired of dark circles, but also thinner. Even hesitate to open a small mouth in the abdomen, put the medicine in and let the medicine be absorbed as soon as possible. This almost "self-abuse" behavior has repeatedly shown that I am perfect everywhere in order to achieve all the required personality.

Whether I am a singer or not, I am super fond of beauty. In addition, students in foreign languages departments are more fashionable than those in other departments, and there is nothing special about them. Let others criticize if they want to!

My biggest wish is to do something that makes my family and myself proud. I am easy-going, polite and polite. I am very good at speaking according to the occasion, and I care about what others think of me and what the outside world thinks of me. Any gossip and criticism is no small harm to me, which often makes me frown during the publicity period. I am very eager to gain the affirmation and acceptance of others and try to prove my ability. I also have shortcomings. I feel round face, big mouth, confused, stingy, impatient and love bargaining. I am not perfect.

Debuted for two years and quickly became popular. Under the packaging of the record company, I am like a lovely Barbie doll. I don't have any gossip, I don't feel emotional, I don't play big cards, I have a good attitude, I don't do my homework, I accidentally failed the Chinese exam, and I will get 90 points in the Chinese exam next semester. No matter how the netizens criticize me, I always smile in front of people. In fact, at a young age, people will secretly cry after they die. But in order to give fans a good positive influence, I would rather make myself a little tired. I really attach great importance to my studies.

In fact, someone talked to me privately about "dropping out of school", so I turned against him on the spot and said I was going to drop out of school. If I had to choose between my studies and my career now, I would choose my studies. I don't want to drop out of school because of external forces. If I drop out of school one day, I won't drop out of school unless I'm too stupid to read well. I will try my best to do these two things and will not let everyone down.

At school, I'm not very conspicuous. After entering the English Department of the Auxiliary University, I remember that on the first day of school, I was sitting in an inconspicuous corner of the classroom when I suddenly heard a female classmate ask another female classmate in a low voice: "I heard that Jolin Tsai is also in our class. Where are people? " The female classmate looked disdainful and compared her hands: "Hiding in the corner, it doesn't look conspicuous!" "Later, I learned that this female classmate is also a member of a choir, but she sings alternative music and doesn't care much about pop music, so she will look at me with a little hostile eyes at first. After getting along for several months, the female classmate took out an album and asked me some questions about the contract. I told her many things to pay attention to according to the experience of a person I have been to before, and that female classmate finally became friends with me.

Tired of fame, in class, the teacher is very concerned about my every move, and because of this, I dare not skip class, let alone skip class. Throughout the semester, I was obviously full-time, but when I received my report card, I saw a professor write "doze off for an hour in class". I really wanted to complain: I was too tired and rested on my desk for ten minutes. Obviously, all the other students in the class are dozing off. Why do you only remember me? What's even more outrageous is that the PE teacher commented that "Jolin Tsai people are at the scene, but their hearts are not there". Therefore, the teacher gave a sports score of 70 points. After reading such a comment, it is really dumbfounding. This is what bothers me about fame.

Please stop calling me "Magnet" (4)

As for the media, I just hope everyone will stop calling me "maneater" because I just want to concentrate on being a student singer. I think this title is too flattering, because there are actually many beautiful artists in the circle. Of course, I'm glad that everyone speaks highly of me, but if some people don't know that this is actually fiction, they will criticize me for not looking good or be attacked by unnecessary language. I also hope that I have room for improvement, instead of being told right and wrong all the time, right?

As a public figure, although I am not afraid of paparazzi, I am afraid of direct criticism from some radicals. Although I am sad to hear that, I can't control others' freedom of speech and preferences. Actually, I can be funny, but I won't deliberately change or prove anything. I just hope that as I grow up, I can slowly change these people's impressions of myself.

As a student singer, her performance and achievements in school are the most commonly used materials for online rumors. Someone once said on BBS that he was an assistant college student, saying that he often saw me ignoring people on campus and being overbearing. Later, after the media went to the campus for verification, they found that I was very kind to people and generous to people who wanted to sign, not what I said.

The most impressive online rumor is the rumor that I was raped in America last year. I was abroad at that time and learned about it through publicity. When I heard it, I felt confused and sad. I wonder how the news came out.

Now I have learned to be invulnerable to any online rumor. When I first heard it, I was a little sad and angry, but I didn't have time to think about it, because it was too late to sleep! I won't be afraid, because someone is following me recently. What I can't stand most is that one of my classmates said that they should drag their classmates to the toilet, pick their nails, curl their hair and so on after class. It's really boring

For an ordinary person, becoming famous overnight is a painful thing. If that person is just an ordinary person, no one will pay attention to his affairs at all, but after becoming famous, his private life is suddenly monitored, which feels bad. However, for a singer, becoming famous overnight is both happy and painful, and happiness is due to the reward.

Water can carry a boat, but it can also overturn it ―― people can consolidate the government or overthrow it; The same knife cuts bread and fingers; The support of the people is crucial to a government.

At first, I will be quite surprised by the madness of fans who like me. But then I realized that some reactions to idols are normal, as long as they don't hurt others and themselves.

I often surf the internet and see netizens talking about me. Sometimes it makes me cry, sometimes it makes me laugh. I really look like a fool in front of the computer. In this case, the elders feel very distressed in their eyes. But I like chatting online. I often go to the website next door to chat after wiping my tears. Lucky netizens sometimes see girls who have signed Jolin. Don't doubt that this is the real me-Jolin Tsai. Roaming between websites and netizens, I keep my word. Some troubles brought to me after becoming famous really affected my mood. I know the saying "water can carry a boat, but it can also overturn it" best, but I don't blame fans or those who comment on me. In the face of the intentional censure of some people outside, I always hold an open-minded attitude of re-learning. Since my debut, I have always held a strong, cheerful and polite attitude. These days, I am encouraged by the unity of many singers, and even fans of other singers have written to support me. Those fans wrote to tell me that they didn't like me very much, but they were deeply moved by my long-term misunderstanding but silently accepted my attitude. Now they have become my loyal fans, which proves that I am good at meeting people and makes me particularly impressed.

Become a doctor in the future (5)

Being an artist is my first job and the most difficult one. I have always thought that a singer is a lofty profession, not only a model, but also a singer, so there is still a long way to go. But if I choose the road of life again, I choose not to enter the entertainment circle, as long as I am a normal person! I like acting very much, so I have been working hard. Although I have pressure and regrets, I never thought about quitting! However, I have always believed that it is good for girls to do what they like, while it is enough for artists to work hard. If I don't sing, my initial dream is to be an English teacher and have my own English classroom where children of different nationalities can play and study together. Or be a dietitian or plastic surgeon. Teach everyone to eat healthier and slimmer! If I can have plastic surgery, I want to raise my height, raise my nose, make my mouth sexy and make my face smaller, because I think my face is round and my mouth is big. I also hope to hold a concert in mainland China, because there are fans in many places in mainland China, but now I spend most of my time in Taiwan Province Province. I also hope to make movies, play idol dramas and so on. ...

It's only two years since I entered the music scene, and I deeply feel that the entertainment circle is a place where people grow rapidly. I saw what the show business was like. I found myself doing the same thing over and over again, recording, taking photos, visiting and giving concerts. The other day, after I came back from a visit to Hong Kong, I felt very stupid. If I don't go out to study often and learn something new, I will go crazy. So I hope I can travel and study often in the future.

I am psychologically prepared to see the music idol "fever" so quickly. One day, there will be a new idol to replace me, but the time comes early and comes late. I have long understood the reality of the entertainment industry, and I also know that only education is fundamental. After climbing the peak of acting, another dream I want to fulfill most is to become an exchange student in my junior year this year and study in the United States for one year. So my future goal is to work hard on K books. I hope to study mainly in literature or philosophy, and it is ideal if I can get a doctorate in the end. If my grades have been good, I will definitely continue to study.

Under the double pressure of endless notices and books, I am too busy to sleep enough, let alone fall in love. However, in my life planning, 25 years old is the ideal marriage age, which I hope can be realized.

Jolin Tsai's readme (6)

I have many hobbies, such as singing, especially learning different vocals. Go to the movies and go out to play, especially with your best friends. Also, I like to collect lovely things, nothing special, as well as sunglasses, rings and bracelets!

As an idol in the new century, I am actually Lightning Lass! I love rings and jewelry with personality and characteristics, so I have baskets of rings and jewelry. Most people wear rings with their ring fingers, index fingers, middle fingers and little fingers, but I wear them with my thumb and hands, and I wear them like this every time. If someone asked me: If you only had one ring now, which finger would you wear? I will say: of course, wear a thumb!

But now I have a new idea. In order to have a "forever ring" on the index finger of my left hand, I simply tattooed a ring pattern on my finger, so I don't have to buy it anymore. Good time! But why do you want to stab your index finger, and it is the pattern of the ring? My answer is: nice! But because the capillaries and nerves of the index finger are widely distributed, it hurts to stab! You'd better not learn from me.

In fact, I like wearing rings since high school, but no high school will let students wear a bunch of rings to school, so I always wander on the edge of school rules. Although there are many school rules, I like them and don't make mistakes. You can wear it when you go out on holiday! Moreover, the education at home is very open and free, so now my rings, necklaces and bracelets are really counted by the laundry list.

Of course, I have many idols that I admire very much, such as Nicolas Cage. As for singers, as long as they sing well, I will learn. The beautiful melody of the piano particularly appeals to me. I also like strong black music and Techno, hoping to sing some powerful music.

Live 200% beauty.

I am a girl who loves beauty, just like all young girls, but I think beauty should come from the body, not just cosmetics and beautiful clothes. I am full of confidence in myself, and beauty naturally radiates from my heart, so that I can live 200% beauty.

Beauty is the real beauty, so I not only keep myself happy, but also pay attention to diet and maintenance. I usually don't drink stimulating drinks, and I like to drink a lot of water and healthy juice. But my strict requirements for food even the staff can't stand it. Because I love beauty, I don't eat greasy and fried food. In order to make my skin better and lose weight, I must eat any food first, not only hot dishes, but also meat.

For me, if I want to live 200% beauty, I must have confidence in myself, just like the outside world likes to make fun of my lips, but I like my sausage mouth best! Only by living confidently can we show a truly healthy aesthetic feeling. I have nothing to say about my love for beauty. I have been hospitalized several times because of gastric ulcer. I also told the staff that even if I was going to die, I would die beautifully. Of course, this is just a joke. I still hope to live a healthy and beautiful life, live a beautiful life of 200% and show my youthful vitality forever.

I love beauty. I have to have my nails trimmed once a week and my fingers and toes trimmed. As long as it is a pattern I like, I will make it myself. Showing beautiful nails is my greatest pleasure.

I especially like to wear low-rise pants in my clothes. I once went to new york and bought a dozen different styles of low-rise pants. I think it can make my figure better. I also bought a pair of pants with bold tailoring. As long as you have confidence in yourself, you will be able to wear beauty. But I don't pay attention to the brand of clothes. Some famous brands are too big for me. I think I like everything as long as it is cute, especially I will wear one or two hundred yuan.

Recently, I dyed my hair red and gave it to a professional. The stylist thought black and red were popular this year, so he used them on me. Fortunately, this is not like the character of video games. As for going to the gym for exercise, I really don't have time, so I do some hula hoops and leg lifts at home. I'm a little lazy. Please don't imitate me!
