Jay Chou peacefully and happily talks about his
by kelvin@multistars - 20th November 2003
At 21:10 at night, under the protection of two robust "black bodyguards", Jay entered the Grand Hotel, a white sweater plus a yarn cap, he had his head lowered with a very cool face, his cap covered his eyebrows, being "held hostage" by the two bodyguards, the young heavenly king, who is normally publicized, was like a child.
At 22:00, even though it was already the fixed time, but because Jay was still resting in his room, the time for the news conference was pushed back. The main organisers negotiated with the reporters because of the entrance list. Due to order consideration, the main organisers requested there be only one reporter from each media, and nearly all of the companies sent 3-4 reporters to interview. At the end with the compromise of the main organisers they reached an end.
At 22:30 when the reporters could not be pressed down anymore, Jay, Zhou Hui, Landy Win, Johnny Lin arrived. Due to the fact the main organisers wouldn't allow photographs to be taken at the entrance, the reporters let Jay and the others smoothly go in. The young heavenly at that time had already changed into a body of dark blue jeans, the white yarn cap was changed to a sharp cap with a long bridge.
At 22:40 the news conference officially started, the main organisers only allowed the reporters to ask each artist 3 questions, the order was: Johnny Lin, Landy Win, Zhou Hui and Jay Chou.
"Hidden Track": Let me learn diversity of expression
Even though he was the last person to ask questions to, but it was clear Jay was adored by the reporters. And the young heavenly king was in a good mood. He patiently answered every sensitive question.
"Hidden Track" can be considered as the first time the young heavenly king has advanced onto the silver screen, he, who has always been low profile, yet said that there was no pressure at all. "Because my appearance in the film is not that much so the pressure wasn't big, I used the feeling of playing music to film the movie." Jay feels that one of the biggest good things about movies is that it taught him how to have facial diversity. "In the past off the stage I had a very boring lazy face, my facial expression never changed. The movie taught me how to make my "face" plentiful." The young heavenly king, who learnt something, clearly tasted a benefit, he seriously said: "In the future I will develop towards movies."
Towards idol worshipping: advise youngsters not to be infected by smoke and drink
Being the person the new generation worship, Jay knows fair well that every move he makes will cause a serious influence to them. He warned the "children" who liked him "don't smoke, don't drink, need to learn how to refuse a friend's unhealthy invite." For this, in front of the media he did self-examination: "In the past I often loved to drive fast, this is very bad, I hope that everyone doesn't have this unhealthy habit. Jay, who has been caused complications by his inborn back problem, knows the importance of his health, he said: "Youngsters have to learn how to treasure their own bodies, don't forget normally to play more ball sports and do more exercise."
Onstage, offstage: behaviour is extreme
Onstage, Jay is uninhibited, free and easy, his confidence is even a bit insolent; offstage in his life, and he says himself that he is a very low profile normal person. "In order to avoid being recognised when going out, I always wear a cap, under the cover of the cap, I seem to be able to find the feeling of a normal person." Even though he feels pretending like this is very tough, but Jay thinks that at this moment he can already adjust his attitude to the best.
Future wife: needs to be a dutiful wife and loving mother
Even though the main organisers emphasised they didn't allow questions on rumours, but when there was a reporter who asked Jay which type Jay's future wife will be, the young heavenly king still smiled responding. Just like everyone man: "She needs to be a person who really knows how to take care of housework, really knows who to tidy everything up and she needs to be that kind that is quite attentive."
Ho ho, so he's also for dutiful wife and loving mother ones, the reporters offstage couldn't help but secretly laugh! Johnny Lin said: "I still haven't played basketball with him(Jay) so I don't know how well he plays."
Landy Win: the rumour with Jay is already old
Despite the main organisers once again declare that you need to avoid rumours when asking Jay, but they aimed at Jay's female junior apprentice Landy, the first question from the reporters were "In the past you were Jay's rumoured girlfriend, are you scared rumours will spread again this time performing on the same stage?" There was a moment of nervousness, yet Landy replied: "No, but this news is already old."
