Since becoming famous 10 years ago, Jay Chou cannot stop collecting antiques, he's even opened an antique shop, his favourite is collecting antique cars, when he was filming "Initial D", Jay Chou admitted he had already reached a crazy level in terms of his fascination with collecting antique cars. And later, every antique car that Jay Chou collected seemed to be related to the new movies he was doing, according to estimates, Jay Chou has already collected 30 priceless antique cars, and the return on his investment is over 3 times.
From this you can see, the antique car Jay Chou is driving this time in America, you can bet it is related to his new movie. According to analysts, even though recently Jay Chou's commercials, TV series, events have been quite tightly scheduled but for a company to have the ability to invest so much for such a big scenery and also for such a precious antique car, there aren't many in Mainland China. The Mainland China company Yili, that has worked with Jay Chou. has such investment power, being the spokesperson of Yili, Jay Chou might be filming a TVC for Yili.
Towards collecting antique cars, Jay Chou has a very deep feeling towards them, he once suggested: antique cars are an enjoyment of life. Judging from Jay Chou's relaxed and cheerful expression you can tell he is very satisfied with this new antique car. On the streets of America, Jay Chou drove the car around 3 blocks, he had a good taste of this antique car, perhaps this model will give Jay Chou a unique flavour.
According to our understanding, this antique car that Jay Chou "had his eye on", is an Austin Healey 3000, it was made in the 60s, it was the most famous sports car at that time in America, at present it is practically extinct, the estimated value is nearly 1 million. To the antique car loving Jay Chou, this is definitely a worthwhile collection item, we wonder if he intends to add it to his collection.
