National treasure King of Songs Hong Yi Feng has passed away, the Hong family have been preparing a music event and a movie about his legend, the main star of the movie has been followed closely by the outside world, "Director Chou" Jay Chou once suggested he could play Hong Rong Hong and Hong Rong Hong could play his father Hong Yi Feng! This article is translated by http://www.jaychoustudio.com

Hong Yi Feng was very strict about music practise on Hong Rong Hong, Hong Rong Hong spent most of his childhood practising the piano and vocals, Jay Chou, who started learning the piano at 4, was also strictly taught by his mother and only has the success he has today because of that, and so because of this similarity of memories, it's made Jay Chou feel a bit more interested in the Hong family's story.

Hong Yi Feng's other son Hong Jing Rao is a good friend of Jay Chou's, it turns out 3, 4 years ago, Jay Chou already had the intention of filming the story of the "four heroes" of the Hong family into a movie, he even planned to play Hong Rong Hong himself, Hong Rong Hong would play Hong Yi Feng, together he would take Hong Yi Feng's story onto the silver screen.

Besides a collaboration in a movie, Hong Jing Rao also mentioned to Jay Chou once, that he hoped that through his creative talent, they could copy the same style as when Jay Chou and Fei Yu Qing performed "Beyond A Thousand Miles" and have Jay Chou and Hong Yi Feng do a classic duet, Jay Chou promised he would do his utmost to help, he hoped he could bring Hong Yi Feng's music to everyone using a more youthful way.

To the news that the idea of a movie about the Hong family being done by Jay Chou, Jay Chou's JVR Music PR manager Zhang Lan Yun expressed, before teacher Hong Jing Rao did indeed mention to Jay Chou about releasing a new album version of Hong Yi Feng's music, Jay also admired Hong Yi Feng's work, and so he promised he would combine Hong Yi Feng's work with his own and make a melody to give to them; as to the part about the movie, the company have not received any news regarding this, but because Jay already has his album and concert scheduled for this year, so filming a movie this year would be a bit difficult in terms of time.

Jay Chou wrote, directed and starred in the TV series "Pandamen", when it was shown in Mainland China, people online criticized it for being retarded; a few days ago, the uncut version was shown on CTS, it received ratings of 0.77, producing the best ratings that CTS have had in this time slot for a year. Jay Chou brags that "Pandamen" can match America's "Batman", it promised, he'll come back to promote it after February.

The sci-fi idol drama "Pandamen" took a year to make, the total budget was over NT$1.1 hundred million. The series is being shown in Taiwan but Jay Chou has not returned to promote it, this has dissatisfied fans; a few days ago Jay Chou clarified at the Shanghai premiere: "How can I possibly not promote it! I'll be busy again, I'll definitely be back in Taiwan in February to participate in public welfare meetings!"

Jay Chou expressed that he's been a fan of "Batman" since young, he's always fantasized about being a hero in the future, "Pandamen is a start, I hope he can become the representative of a hero in the modern East!"

Why did he choose a panda to be the star? Jay Chou said: "Panda's are very cute, plus it's very easy to make the colours of the East prominent with them, at present foreign cartoon heroes are all based on "insect-like" (Spiderman, Batman), I've made a pledge to film the first modern hero representative of the Eastern world!"

It is his first idol drama to be shown in Taiwan, Jay Chou is used to doing everything himself, he even personally edited it, he revealed, "I can't cut any of my scenes, I fought so hard and handsomely, how I can cut it!" Jay Chou strongly pushed it, the "Pandamen" shown on CTS is definitely the "most complete version edited personally by Jay Chou".

The core of "Pandamen" is the fights, the fight scenes by Nan Quan Mama's Devon and Yuhao include street dance moves, Jay Chou admitted the hardest part of film were the action scenes, "There needs to be a gun fight, then you have to design some moves, there also has to be running on walls, it can't be too out there, this series is very real, but you have to add in some sci-fi, I think when you do this kind of directing you'll really go crazy fast."

"Pandamen" is about a story that happened in 2030, "Two boys full of righteousness and challenge become "Super Pandaman" and "Pandaman", they use power worthy of Batman to battle with the evil corporation, they protect Bright City's safety." The main stars "Super Pandaman" and "Pandaman" are played by Nan Quan Mama's Yuhao and Devon, Jay Chou plays a police inspector "Li Ao". Besides them, Jay Chou's rumoured girlfriend Jessie Chiang, Eric Tseng, Jerry Yan, Wilber Pan, Shawn Yu and more all guest star.
