Recently Jay Chou has been busy with his world tour, but in recent days a Taiwanese cinematographer Kiven revealed on his blog the plans of Jay Chou's new movie "Secret 2", the female lead has been exposed early, according to cinematographer Kiven: "After Jay Chou is finished with his concert next year, he'll film the sequel to Secret, at present the script is already being planned, this time it's going to be a bit more sci-fi, and also bits of it will be in 3D."
When Jay Chou was filming "Secret" he already had ideas for "Secret 2", it was just because he was busy with other things afterwards that nothing came of it, the script for the new movie has already been in the works since the start of last year, it's been confirmed now that they will start filming in September next year, earlier Jay Chou revealed to the media, besides the background crew for the movie not changing, the majority of the male cast will also be the same, but for the female cast he wants to "change things", he's worried that the audience have too deep of an impression of Guai Lun Mei and Alice Tzeng, so with a newcomer it will give the movie a different feeling. And about other details of the movie, Jay Chou has been unwilling to reveal any information.
But cinematographer Kiven leaked quite a lot of Jay Chou's "secrets" on his blog, just like last time "Secret 2" will be about time travelling, it's just that this time there'll be more creative scenes and stories, in Director Chou's new album "The Era" he has been plugging the "time travelling" songs, this time's "Secret 2" female lead, Man Qi, was recommended to Jay Chou by a good friend, the female lead is pretty and pure, her sweet temperament is in line with the style of people Jay Chou uses. The different thing to "Secret" is that this time in "Secret 2", it will be about "time travel" between now and the future, due to the fact the male and female leads are from different eras and have different technologies, a lot of exciting stories arise from it. The male lead is a high school student, the female lead is from the technology-advanced future, very sci-fi, for this time Jay Chou will use 3D in the movie and make a music love story with the "Hollywood" style grand feeling.
Reporters asked for further confirmation about the details revealed by Kiven about "Secret", reporters got into contact with JVR staff, staff member Mr Wang did not deny plans about "Secret 2", about the details he declined to comment.

It was still a full house on the 12th for Jay Chou's "The Era" world tour concert, his good friend Eason Chan came to listen, he gave him a surprise by singing and playing "Where's the Promised Happiness", then halfway through he suddenly started singing "Eliminated" which he wrote for Eason Chan. But, last year he beat Eason Chan to claim the King of Gold Songs, this year Eason Chan is again nominated, the Golden Melody Awards are just around the corner on the 26th, with him singing "Eliminated", carelessly he's touched a bit of bad luck!
Yesterday was the second night of the concert, his mood was relaxed, he sang with more feeling. When he went onstage wearing an ancient Chinese classical lace prince costume, he started off playing "Mario bros." to amuse the crowd, he then turned into a white prince and sang a love song, when he was halfway through singing "Where's the Promised Happiness?", he suddenly started singing "Eliminated", Eason Chan was so happy he gestured to the camera, saying he wanted Jay Chou's autograph.

Jay Chou suddenly stopped to keep the suspense: "You thought I'd sing your song?" Then he started singing "Chinese Flower Pot", seeing Eason Chan's disappointed expression, he suddenly started singing "Eliminated" again, Eason Chan got high once again, he kept kissing Jay Chou's album, the crowd laughed.
According to reports, he was most nervous on the first night of the concert on the 11th, he had a meeting with the workers after the concert, he also went back to the office to watch the tapes, he only went home after 1 in the morning. The guests at his concert were label mates, yesterday night The Drifters often looked ever-green to dumbstruck, they held the mic in both hands, he encouraged his label mates saying: "Not bad! Their stage presence is already very stable! It's completely different to the first time I was on stage, I knew they were actually a bit nervous, I hope they can relax!" Yesterday when he saw Lara he said: "Not bad! Hot babe."
The mapping effect for the concert (all new image effect techniques) amazed people, when he was singing "Love's Flight Diary", it was as if he was in the milky way, boundless. The first day sales of the merchandise at the concert was 4 million yuan, it's estimated after 3 days it can break the 10 million mark.

He invited the Flower Expo robot which cost TW$12 million to make to be in his MV, but the robot got temperamental with him, he said: "When it's rainy he goes on strike, I have to listen to him even if I'm the director." It's so rare for him to dance in the MV. He said, dancing is not his strong point, but he's working hard to learn a new dance for his concert on the 11th.

On the 19th Jay Chou went on UFO Radio to promote his new album "The Era", the presenter Joseph Wang asked: "What kind of girl does your mother like?" He thought about it and said: "I guess someone who is filial and can do housework." Joseph Wang concluded: "So outward appearance is not important?" He laughed shouting: "I think it's important!" The mother and son are close, but their view on girls is very different.
Jay Chou wants everything to be diao, but he has a side when he returns to his family, Nicholas Tse has given him some food for thought, "In the past I went to Hong Kong often, I bumped into him when he was still unmarried, but after I bumped into him later, he was already a father, I talked to him about being a father, it was pretty special." Tse is 30 this year, Jay Chou is a year older, seeing him already a father of two, he's not in a hurry but his attitude is rather contradictory.
"If I had kids, I can take them out to play, go on shows, but once I go abroad, what will I do since I can't accompany them?" He said, once he gets married, there's no way he'll get divorced, "So I'll carefully choose (my other half)."
Recently he's had a lot of run-ins with girls, "Game Female Wu Kong" Honey Chen was said to have been to his room, he helplessly said: "My mother is very conservative, she believes the media very easily. She even asked me, 'When did your room have so many stars?' It's not like my room is the UFO Radio office, plus I'm not that romantic."
Besides this, Mainland China Beijing are holding the competition for musical "In Love With Teresa Teng", the producer Li Dun has already invited Jay Chou and Leehom Wang to produce the music for this musical, Li Dun revealed: "Jay Chou's company is very interested in this." Yesterday Jay Chou said about this: "I'm not clear about it, everything will be arranged by the company."
