Jay Chou's world tour concert Nanjing stop is going to be held in the Olympics Centre tonight. Yesterday afternoon, a casually dressed Jay Chou met Nanjing fans early. A cool looking Jay was few on words as usual, but when they started talking about "having fun at night in Qin Huai", he started to get excited: "I can't say for sure but I might write about Qin Huai He in my songs in the future."
Yesterday at about 3:40, Jay Chou appeared in casual clothes, his talking was as cool as ever. Being a genius of writing, some people worry that his creativity will reach a bottleneck, his response was very simple and confident: "Right now I'm unlikely at the point of drying up." Apart from work, lots of people care about his personal life, towards his current single status, he was very calm, saying that he's enjoying his single life right now, "Being single gives me a lot of inspiration, and a lot of time for writing." At the same time he also expressed his attitude towards love to everyone there, "When it's the time to date then I will date, now's not the time."
Talking about his mood coming to Nanjing this time, Jay Chou expressed that he had a good mood. After finding out that Nanjing has a "Chrysanthemum Flower Bed" named the same as his song "Chrysanthemum Flower Bed", he was very interested, "In the past I really didn't know Nanjing had a place called Chrysanthemum Flower Bed, that's why I really want to go this time, I can't say for sure but it might give me new inspiration, these inspirations are very precious to me." Towards the ancient city Nanjing, he expressed he's interested in a lot of places, when reporters mentioned if he would write a Chinese style song based on Qin Huai He, he said half jokingly: "Tonight I'm going to go sightseeing in Qin Huai He, I hear it's very beautiful, it'll definitely give me some inspiration." Afterwards a reporter asked him if he's going to Jonathan Lee's concert at night, he said intelligently: "But tonight I need to go sightseeing in Qin Huai He."
This year is the year of the Olympics, news of him writing "A Long Journey" for the Olympics was reported very early on. When reporters asked if he will be singing "A Long Journey" at the concert tonight, he said that because the selection results have still not come out so he won't be singing it, "I've already written an Olympic song, it's not some hidden secret anymore. Lots of radio stations have broadcasted it already. Lots of fans can already sing it. But tomorrow night I will not be singing it, the company hopes I sing it after the result comes out, it's a bit better."
According to reports, besides offering his own classic songs to Nanjing fans at his concert this time, he's going to duet with 8 year old B.Boy hip hop child prodigy on the song "Compendium of Materia Medica", plus he's going to show off his skills playing diabolo, it's clearly going to be an exciting show.
