The ties between Jay Chou and Jolin Tsai never seem to end! The two just recently told the media that they've restored their friendship, but with the end of September and the start of October they are both releasing new albums going into direct competition, in these few years "Double J" have contested the crown of "record sales" very fiercely, who wins this year, it could happen at any moment! The recent success of "Secret" has given him confidence.

The movie "Secret" directed by and starring Jay Chou has sold well, yesterday his company JVR Music announced that in 6 days of showing in Taiwan the ticket sales have broken 15 million yuan, he was so happy he plans to show off to Andrew Lau who first got him into movies through "Initial D", he also wants friends to call him "Director Chou" (as in a movie director) instead of "Director Chou" (as in a company director).

The promotion for "Secret" has finished, next Jay Chou will be concentrating on recording his new album, it is estimated it will be out at the start of October, even though he only has 1 and a half months to prepare but he is full of confidence.

In comparison, ex-rumoured girlfriend Jolin Tsai's new album started recording after the end of the year, in the half a year she went to Paris, London, Bangkok, etc... to film MVs, Capitol are looking forward to her getting even better results after "Dancing Diva". It's a coincidence that she will be in direct competition with Jay Chou, it will definitely become something people focus on.

And about the OST for "Secret", which wasn't originally planned to be released yet, due to the fact that the accompanying music, scenes and story express Jay Chou's talent in music so well, JVR Music are officially releasing 20,000 limited edition copies of the OST this week, it comes with 100 pages and 50 photos from the movie, this will be one to collect for fans who like Jay Chou or the movie; the old song in the movie "Lover's Tears" was Gui Lun-mei's opinion.

As for his individual concert, he plans to start it in Taipei in November after the album is released, he has never held a concert at the Taipei Arena, he's considering the issue of effects, he plans on choosing an outdoor venue.
