Jay: Give me curio car, don't bother with wage

Jay is indeed a "strange" person, accepting to film the movie "Initial D", but yet he doesn't know how much his wage is, he was very interested in the Toyota AE86 curio car in the movie, he said: "Wage doesn't matter, as long as you give me the car I'm fine!"

Jay said, filming to now, he is very "surprised" at his own performance, "How come I won't NG? Not bad, I won't waste film." He said he doesn't have many lines in the movie, but there are a lot of "inner feeling" scenes, super hard to act, "That's why I just used the most direct response to play it." He doesn't want to give himself pressure, "Imagine I'm filming an MV then that's good."

Jay really didn't give himself too much pressure, he's only been in Japan for two weeks, and he's already bought 15 caps, 8 t-shirts and 5 pairs of trousers, in total he's spent TW$60,000, "Hey, discount, this isn't considered as buying much!" Apart from shopping, Jay will arrange to go to the race track with Director Andrew Lau and actor Chapman To to "drift against each other", "as long as they ride my car, I will step on the accelerator like crazy, the car drifts to 180mph, scaring them to death!"

These few days, there have been rumours that "good friend" Jolin Choi has come to Tokyo. When Jay heard this, his mouth widened: "She's come too? I didn't know." Talking about Jolin, Jay's attitude was very relaxed: "Just good friend."

Andrew Lau said that right now everyone has helped Jay get a nickname called "Little Cheater", because he often does magic in front of people.

Jay praised Anne Suzuki being cute, just a shame he can only communicate with her with single English words, he said: "Women with the scent of a woman is not bad, doesn't have to be big eyes or little eyes." When asked if he will sing the theme song for this movie, he said it's still not decided, but he really wants to do the accompanying music for this movie. Edison says he wants you to help him write songs? He only said it's still not decided.

Jay usually likes to collect curio cars, when asked whether he will consider collecting the "Toyota AE86" in the movie? He said without hesitation he definitely would, also saying this movie is the representation work, originally he hoped the director would give it to him but Andrew Lau said no, he needs to buy it himself.

When Andrew Lau was asked if there were any intimate scenes in the movie? Andrew Lau said Jay doesn't want to film it, even though in the manga there is a scene with Takumi Fujiwara's and his girlfriend in bed, but he stressed that the movie will go for the young audience, that's why they are not going to arrange for Jay and Anne to have intimate scenes. Jay denied it was his idea not to have intimate scenes, and also said if there was a need in the movie he would accept it, this movie mainly describes the relationship between father and son.
